Over the next 30 days with #ship30for30, I'll be discussing how we break free from the "business machine" to build human-centered businesses. Follow along for grounded and tangible insights to disrupt the constant productivity and growth myths. #tweet100

Watch until the end!!

Joining @jayclouse’s The Lab community has been transformative in my creator career. Excited for the friends I’ve gotten to make and building relationships for the future!

On my way to Craft + Commerce. Irrationally excited to meet some of the mentors and friends I’ve only met online. For the first time going to a conference like this, I have friends! Thanks to @jayclouse for creating The Lab where I’ve met so many people.

I need to have full access to a Client's #Asana to set up templates and custom fields... but I don't have an email address belonging to that organization. Is there a workaround? (It's possible in ClickUp...)

What does it mean to be a full-time creator? I never know how to answer this question. My business sustains me full-time, but it’s largely services. Only 15% comes from cohort-based course, and I don’t yet monetize my newsletter or YouTube yet. So what counts?

Step 1: Send spicier than normal newsletter Step 2: Obsessively check unsubscribes Step 3: remember that you get unsubscribes even from your most milquetoast newsletters Step 4: And realize your book is 🌶️. They’ll unsubscribe now or later

“I read your newsletter yesterday. And I am not kidding, but I had a moment where I felt, this is the kind of newsletter I'd like to write. It had soul on it. Nope, not flattering. :)” Did you know I have a newsletter? jessicalackey.com/newsletter

Today’s learning: Pricing Creativity videos by Blair Enns. I don’t work (much) with larger orgs where there’s a huge value range. However, the business owners I support do work with orgs. It’s my job to always be learning how to be the best advisor possible on their market.

“this deep work strategy made me $700K in 30 days” You sure it wasn’t having an audience of hundreds of thousands, and then coupling that with this strategy?

Another amazing episode about where to spend your podcasting budget from @iamjeremyenns and @mijustin Going to take their ideas about a welcome sequence tied to a “best of playlist” for each segment of my audience and revamp my email welcome sequence. (Someday).

I just subscribed to @jspector's For The Interested newsletter to get simple growth tips. Check it out here: fortheinterested.com/subscri…

Listening to the fantastic Podcast Marketing Trends Explained podcast with @iamjeremyenns and they told us to take a picture of where we were when we were listening!

When I heard this book title: All the Gold Stars: Reimagining Ambition and the Ways We Strive (just released today) - immediately thought of @p_millerd and @khemaridh - either of you read this one as a pre-read?

If you’re on the precipice of a revenue or capacity threshold…. How much of your time is spent planning for and dreaming of the “next level”? Versus feeling the deep desire to just burn it all down?

I love the idea of taking 4+ days to respond to emails as a rejection of hustle culture…. But if you say you respond to current clients within 24 hours… and it’s a quick logistics question…. When are you allowed to be annoyed at the radio silence?

It’s time to set your next season’s intentions. Because without a plan, it’s too easy to get distracted by courses, programs, “expert advice.” Or not building at all and simply focusing on client work. Learn my approach in tomorrow’s newsletter 👇 jessicalackey.ck.page/subscr…
