Hey Reader, We’re putting the finishing touches on the Creator Flywheels overview video, and I’m looking forward to sharing the page with you next week that has all of the details. I’ve had a number of people reach out excited to learn more about the program as well as with some interesting questions! I can already tell, we’re going to have some lively discussions in the community, and I’m looking forward to our coaching calls. The beautiful thing about flywheels is they are systems that run in your business to help you generate more results with less effort. But instead of things getting easier over time, you may have found they’ve gotten harder, and you don’t have as much to show for your work. What are some signs you need flywheels?
Does any of this sound familiar? The reason I’m so passionate about flywheels, and why I’ve spent the past couple of years obsessing about them, is because flywheels help make business fun again. If things aren’t getting easier, and you’re not producing more results and growing faster than you were before, it’s time to take a look at your systems. Streamline your processes & produce compound resultsCreator Flywheels are your business’s operating system. And when you get those flywheels dialed in, it’s like magic. They streamline your processes so everything flows seamlessly, allowing you to focus on what truly matters: growing your business. Instead of linear SOPs, flywheels are designed to give you leverage and produce compound results on each rotation. Instead of something like a hand pump, where you only get results when you put in effort, a flywheel takes less effort over time while increasing results. Imagine it getting:
Your reputation increases, you have more opportunities, and all of this comes with working less and having more time. And here’s the good news: You’re a lot closer to the future you want than you realizeYou already have all of the pieces you need to construct the flywheels your business requires; they’re just not connected to each other. They’re not optimized to flow smoothly into one another, and they’re not engineered to give you leverage and produce compound results on each rotation. That’s where the Creator Flywheels course and community comes in. While it’s simple to describe the concept of a flywheel, there’s more to it than arranging linear steps in a circle.
There are so many places you can get stuck. I knew this had to go beyond a blog post, and I knew this needed to be a course. But I found that teaching you the principles, and giving you the resources and worksheets, often isn’t enough to make sure you get results. I knew I needed to give you additional support in the form of coaching, community, and access to my team. I want to make sure you ACTUALLY get resultsI’m sure you’ve heard of people buying a course and not really going through it, or maybe finishing but never actually getting around to applying what they’ve learned. That’s not what I want for you. This coaching program is not a hands-off thing for me. It’s not a Facebook group where you have the blind leading the blind. I’m there personally working with you. You also get access to my concierge flywheel team. As long as you commit to showing up and letting us help you, we’re going to make sure you get results. I mentioned that next year, I’m launching this coaching membership at $8,000/yr. But on November 20th, I’m opening a limited number of Founding Member spots who will be grandfathered in at $5,000/yr. There will also an option to get access to the course, along with 2 months of community and group coaching access, for $3,000 (one-time, non-recurring). I personalized this edition of my weekly newsletter email to give you even more information on the Creator Flywheels Community & Group Coaching program since you mentioned you were interested. I’ll continue to keep you posted and send you the new video overview we have in the coming days. If there’s anything you’re wondering about the program (including if it’s a good fit for you), feel free to reply to this email with any questions you have. Let me know about your situation.

Hey Reader, I grew up in a family with six kids where there wasn’t a lot of money. Looking back, some years we lived on $25,000. We had everything that we needed, but it wasn’t until college that I went out to eat for the first time in my life. Money was always stressful. People like to say money doesn’t buy happiness, but a lack of money sure brings a lot of frustration. I vowed at a young age to make sure money wouldn’t be my primary problem. If I’m drowning, I can’t help other people. But...
Hey Reader, Often the hardest thing with creating content is coming up with new topics to write about. Whether it’s a newsletter, thread, or video script, the blank page can feel overwhelming. It’s much easier to start with a topic in mind. But where do you get ideas? I want to peel back the curtain and go behind the scenes on how I create content. Most of us have a core focus we tend to stick to. We usually have 3–4 main topics we cycle through and revisit from different angles. While this...
Hey Reader, If the story of your life was a book, how would you title the chapter you’re in right now? My friend and coach Dan Putt likes to ask this question, and I find it so helpful for zooming out from my immediate problems and thinking of the overall season. When Terry Rice asked me the chapter title question on his podcast, an immediate answer popped into my head: "Dreams realized". Surprisingly, I was reviewing my 2024 annual goals, and I think I'm going to miss almost all of them....
