My wife's car taught me something about your offer
The Apple CarPlay in my wife's car worked fine for about a year. Then one day it stopped. That was two years ago and it has not worked since. I have taken it in seven times. Seven. And every time I get the same answer, delivered nice and calm by somebody at the service counter. It is a known issue. Engineering is aware. We will reach out when we have an update. Known issue. I love that phrase. It means everyone agrees the thing is broken and nobody is doing anything about it. Seven trips. Nothing changed. So a couple weeks ago I stopped talking to the counter and went and found the man who runs the entire dealership. I told him plainly. Two years. Seven visits. Same answer every time. Here is what I need to happen. He moved that day. Ordered the part right then. I came back in, and it turned out they had ordered one part and needed a second one nobody had thought about. So I came back again. And then it worked. Two years of getting handled. One direct conversation with the person who could actually decide, and it was done in a couple of weeks. Now here is why I am posting this in here. A lot of you declared your idea in the Step 0 post. You typed out your "I help" statement, I gave you feedback, you felt good about it. And then you went quiet. You have people watching you. Some of them have been watching for years. They comment. They come back. They know your dog's name. And you have been hinting at them. A link buried in the description. A pinned comment. A vague "I might put something together at some point" at the end of a video. That is talking to the service counter for two years. You have never gone straight at it and said the actual sentence out loud. Here is what I have. Here is who it is for. Here is what it costs. Here is where to go. Your people are not going to work it out on their own. It is a known issue. They know they want more from you. You know they want more from you. And nothing moves, because nobody has said it plainly. And yes, you might get the first version wrong.

Excellent video and great post. Thank you Brian!
Where are my Claude users?
Are you using Claude? And how do you use Claude? Do you work with Claude code in the terminal? Are you using Claude.ai which is the browser version? Are you using the Claude app?

@Brian O'Neill Thank you!
I ran this live last week. Here's the 10 minute version.
Last Friday I ran a live workshop on what to charge. About 20 people were in the room. Every single one was undercharging. And there's a very common reason as to why. I recorded a condensed version and put it on YouTube. Here's what's in it. The screen discount. There's a number you'd quote in person without blinking. Put that same skill on a screen and it falls off a cliff. Eighty percent, sometimes more. Same brain, same years, same you. The three reasons you did it. You price with your own wallet. You price your effort instead of their result. And you move the goal post every single time proof shows up. The study that will change your mind. Same energy drink for everyone, only the price changed. Full price group solved 9.5 puzzles. Discount group solved 7.7. Your discount is making the person who bought from you get a worse result. Then the fix. Three moves. One of them takes ten minutes and you can do it today. Watch it, then drop two numbers in the comments. What you'd charge in real life, and what you charge online. That gap is the whole video.

@Brian O'Neill I had a week of unexpected travel and I gave up the Duolingo streak. I was learning Spanish.

@Brian O'Neill I paid for a full year of Duolingo and I was very consistent. When I had just a free account, it was easy to stop. This is exactly your point about free versus paid courses.
Coaching vs Courses vs Digital Products - Which One Fits YOUR Skills Best?
One of the biggest reasons people stay stuck is simple. They don’t know which type of online business actually fits them. So they spend months bouncing between ideas…trying a little coaching, watching a few course videos, testing a digital product…and never getting traction with any of them. Here’s the simplest way to think about the 3 most common online business models and how to know which one is right for YOU: 1️⃣ Coaching (1:1 or group) Best for you if you: - Like talking to people - Enjoy teaching or guiding step-by-step - Want the fastest path to your first customer - Don’t mind being on Zoom Avoid this if you hate being “on stage.” 2️⃣ Online Courses Best for you if you: - Prefer to teach once and let people learn on their own - Have a process you can break into steps - Want something scalable without adding more hours - Like creating videos or structured lessons Avoid this if you struggle to organize your thoughts. 3️⃣ Digital Products (PDFs, templates, guides) Best for you if you: - Want something simple and fast to launch - Prefer writing over talking - Have repeatable knowledge you can package - Don’t want to be on camera Avoid this if you want deep 1:1 interaction. 👇 POLL: Which one feels like the best fit for YOUR skills and personality? (Coaching / Courses / Digital Products) After you vote, drop a comment: What made you choose that option? I’ll reply and help you narrow it down.

I chose Course. I am building a course on investing for beginners. I know that I can help more people in a course, but I will add coaching and digital products in the future. Action produces clarity. I always need to learn this lesson! Thanks so much @Brian O'Neill
