I noticed no direct correlation between organic keywords and organic traffic in most cases.

Semrush is estimating traffic without real data, but even when it's off, the actual results in this report are broadly the same (verified manually in GSC and Google Analytics).

Aristotle's take on "how much change constitutes turning into a new vehicle".

I keep thinking about incremental improvements vs. turning a new page often.

Potterverse in MBTI.

My Strategic Growth Circle community clients this week:🧵

I dreamed about a continued Slack conversation with a SGC member last night after 4 hours of Slack responses on Monday, catching up with a week of messages.

These P&Ls and RACIs have been imprinted enough to keep crunching numbers while I sleep!

I broke GPT4o again.

We don't need endless innovation in LLMs; fixing degraded performance and wasting time on re-prompting is good enough.

Posted the 4,700 LinkedIn newsletter blast, replied to some leads and former partners, looking into sprint planning for next week.

Be out for shopping and a brother in law b-day for a few hours, then back to closing the year strong.

My $1,800/mo advisory fractional plan primarily attracts B2B SaaS or higher-up professional services, but agencies dominate the $297/mo Strategic Circle.

🧑‍🏫 And the difference is staggering as recurring problems are SO different:

I acquired several directories and micro SaaS this year and tech stack variety was the most enormous overhead.

The usual seller is an indie hacker or a solopreneur.

Someone who played with a fancy stack, went through a Laravel starter kit, tried out a Vercel template.

The biggest difference with my new $297/mo advisory vs. the $1,800/mo for larger businesses is the heavier need for coaching and balancing life caveats.

"MBA Disrupted" sold thousands of copies since May. 📈

I finished the last chapter in a hotel lobby in Manhattan two hours before a client meeting at the Rockefeller Center the month before.

The story started in 2019:

How is that a legit article?

Looks like a paid guest post plug in a high authority site.

Talk about reputation abuse and such.

I don't get Blue Sky yet - who are some business/hold co/investing accounts to follow around?

"What are a few extra emails?", me being cocky getting 450 emails a day for years and redirecting a few directory/tool accounts.

"Challenge accepted", our automation link partner for setting up profiles and accounts for 5 new sites to 400+ systems each, resulting in 3,000 extra emails for 5 days. 😬

Playing a game of defense in a down market is like a horror movie with kids splitting apart in a haunted house with a storm outside, separately curious to explore the basement.

Instead of running like crazy and doing something productive.

Got my invite here on Jul 29, 2023 but looks like many of the cool kids are now here.

I support every network that doesn't promote exclusively dumb selfies and travel "you wish you were here too" reels to depress kids instead of teaching them work habits.
