To 2025... and Beyond

I set some ambitious goals for Q4 of 2024.

I wanted to build a full funnel for my Persuasive Speaker newsletter.
I wanted to grow my X account to over 1,000 followers.
I wanted to send one email a day until the end of 2024.

I didn’t hit all of them.

I barely touched my X account, and my funnel? Well, I’ve got a lead magnet and a low-ticket offer ($49–$99), but I stopped there.

What I did do was this: I sent an email a day since September.

Some days, I even wrote two.

And let me tell you, it was by far one of the hardest habits I’ve ever had to build.

It wasn’t easy.

There were days I had to force myself to sit down and write.

But here’s what that discipline gave me.

I now have a large arsenal of content I can repurpose to grow even faster.

On days I had no ideas, I forced myself to research, read, and get creative. As a result, I developed a skill I once thought was impossible to learn: creativity.

And most importantly, writing daily emails gave me insights into myself, my business, and the clients I serve.

I won’t share all those insights here, because that’s not the point of this email.

But this is.

While I document my journey—not just as a speaker, but as an entrepreneur and a student of persuasion—I do it, in part, to build something meaningful for myself.

But the real fuel that runs this is the chance to impact someone else’s life.

Maybe an email sparks an idea in your mind that changes the trajectory of your business, or even your life.

Only a handful of people get these emails, and you’re one of them.

That wouldn’t have been possible without you.

I want you to know how much I appreciate that.

So thank you.

Thank you for sticking around.

And I promise you, if you stick around long enough, we’ll grow together to become more persuasive and make more impact in 2025... and beyond. (Cue Buzz Lightyear voice).

Happy New Year,
