There is a belief that right now the world is going through some tough economic times. There’s a recession or otherwise things are really, really bad for everyone. Now, I don’t happen to believe that I don’t happen to believe that. And here’s why. While there are things out there, they may be indicating that things are bad, and people are struggling financially. There’s also lots and lots of indication that there are lots and lots of people who are not struggling at all, which is why part of my habit and routine is to always hang out with other people who are doing well and who are doing something you know, who are you know, going after different goals, especially in business. For example, less than a month ago, I was in London, and I spent some time in a room with about 19 other top marketers from the UK. In that room. I’d say I wasn’t in the top five as far as doing well. But there was no one in that room who was making less than multiple, six figures. Even the tiniest, smallest people in our room. We’re still making multiple six figures and the conversations we have that word about business later on in the pub, we’re in about, oh, I had to downgrade from my arranger over to a Honda because money’s tight, the conversations where I, you know, I have to get a new car and I’m debating should I get a Range Rover? Or should I get an x five. So, in other words, people were doing well in that room. So, I think what’s important to say here is one: be careful what information you pay attention to, and what you put in meaning that if you consume information that basically continues to dictate to you that everything is bad, people are struggling, and nobody has any money and Economic Times are tough. And this and this, this is exactly how you’re going to feel. And if you feel that way, what’s going to happen eventually, sooner rather than later is you’re going to take action in the exact same way. Now why would you take action if everything is bad, and there’s no hope you wouldn’t? What’s the point? The environment is bad, meaning the environment where you’re taking action is bad. So, you can work really hard, but the environment is bad, you’re not gonna get any results. If that’s what’s between your ears, nothing’s going to happen. Instead, I suggest you continuously train your brain to develop this bias that there’s money everywhere, and there is abundance in the same way that let’s say let’s take my childhood back to Ukraine back in Ukraine, my parents would only buy Coca Cola on special occasions. One of those occasions was the New Year’s which is the biggest holiday in Ukraine. And I always waited for that holiday because I really loved Coca Cola and there was usually like a bottle of Coca Cola on the table and I would drink a bit everyone else would have saw my brother would have some my mom and my dad and then you know when I wanted more, I looked at the bottle and there’s no more coke. Naturally I felt this scarcity mindset right because as there’s no more coke in the bottle, I don’t have any more Coke, my resource of having Coca Cola is a scarce resource. However, over ignoring is another part of this conversation that we can open the fridge and there’s Coca Cola there, or we can go to the grocery store, there’s more waiting. So, my experience today, of course, is if I want to get Coca Cola, I just go to like in your store and get some Coca Cola I in fact, I can stick up my entire fragging basement with coke from the floor to the ceiling, and never care about, you know, a Coca Cola shortage for the rest of my life. Now, what’s the difference? Here? The difference here is only my mindset, right? That is only paying attention to oh, we’re out of coke or the fear of well, once this one bottle is gone, I’m not going to have any more. So, in the same way, when you look at income, when you look at markets, when you look at niches, you can look at those niches the same way you can look at an agency, oh, this niche is extremely competitive, and therefore there’s no money in that niche anymore. Or you can look at that niche and say that, oh, looks like this niche is very competitive, meaning there’s probably a lot of money in that niche, because they’re obviously all making money. You know, there’s the old story about a guy who went to Africa. I don’t know if it’s made up or not, I honestly don’t know. But he basically went to Africa, and he was a shoe salesman. And he basically sent the telegram back and the telegram read, send me money for a ticket back home. Nobody wears shoes over here. And another salesman went to Africa around the same time. And he went there and then he telegraphed back, get ready. We’re going to be filthy rich, nobody’s wearing shoes over here. Yeah, as a matter of perspective, right? You can, you can look at things in different ways. So, I assure you, if you look for it, there’s lots of evidence of things being very well, and people doing really well. Now, as far as emails, specifically emails doing extremely, extremely, extremely, extremely well. Email is still the most effective way. As far as getting traction, getting sales, getting revenue. In fact, checking back to the same meeting that I had in London with the other marketers on top marketers. We pretty much spent half the day discussing different marketing strategies. There was very little time spent on Instagram, specifically, because there’s was this one guy who was making money on Instagram, the other half the day, the last half, we spent talking simply about email marketing, we spoke about different campaigns, subject lines that are working different systems, how do we tag how do we segment you know, where do we generate subscribers? How often do we clean the list and so on. So, letter words, pretty much everyone in that room relied on their email list besides this one Instagram guy, there was one more guy who has a list but doesn’t mail it for some reason. And one more guy who is both email and direct mail, so he’s doing both and yeah, email is really strong. As far as the trends for me as far as I’m concerned, it’s either even or trending up, because I don’t see I don’t see any evidence of email slowing down.
