Week 2 of the name change of this newsletter brand to Build Income Streams.
Thanks for your votes and feedback, I’m liking it!
Ok, I started using High Level two three weeks ago now and I’m still blown away.
You can build sites, automate social channels, set up chatbots, create landing pages, set up SMS, host courses, create an affiliate program, connect with customers (CRM), and on and on and on.
This week, I’ve started doing outreach to sell my domain names (I’ll share below…)
If you’ve ever checked it out, it’s quite overwhelming, but they have customer support available on Zoom 24/7.
I think this is going to be a game-changer for my business.
You get 3 sub-accounts with their base plan for $97/mo — it’s not cheap.
But I’m running one account for a client as their marketing agency, one for my domain name outbounding, and the 3rd for The Mobile Rundown (my local media brand).
Once I get the hang of it, I’ll probably upgrade, as I can see running real estate marketing, among other things through it - and they’ll all be organized nicely in their own sub accounts that I can easily add my staff to.
Here’s my referral link for a 14-day free trial if you’d like to check it out.
How I’m Using AI this Week…
I started playing around with Open AI’s updated image functions, and they’re pretty wild.
And they’re built directly into ChatGPT and have memory, meaning you can make adjustments to photos and continue making adjustments.
Feel free to check out the video I made below…
What use cases have you seen or tried?
Feel free to hop on the videos and ask me any questions you’d like.
I'm happy to share what I’m learning!
Now, a quick note from an email sponsor…
Domain Name Flipping [Update]
Ok, using GoHighLevel, I’ve set up some outbound campaigns.
I’m starting with some real estate domain names that I just picked up.
They’re connected to certain cities in the US.
I used Outscraper to pull a list of some of the top real estate agents in those cities.
Then I sent a very personalized message.
I’ve already received interest, but I plan to follow up with multiple emails until I get a sale.
I’ll keep you posted!
I recorded this video showing businesses a traffic boosting strategy regarding domains.
Plus, buying more names will help me with content in the DomainNameLovers.com group.
PS - you can see most of my domains for sale here.
Amazon Influencer Program [Update]
Note: I’ve made the decision to give all of my community (you!) my best tips I’ve learned at no cost. Enjoy!
I haven’t made any videos in months.
I’ve now crossed $4k in total earnings.
I have 120 127 videos.
(plus 75 videos from other creators..)
My total earnings equal $3,901.23 $4,223.27
After expenses, I’m making $85.35 $95.02 per hour.

But the real O.G. is my buddy Jared Bauman, who has made more than $40,000 per year with Amazon Influencer in his part time (that’s a salary for some folks!) — he shares all his knowledge in his course.

If you want to learn more about Amazon Influencer, an overview of the program is here, and my first update is here.
(If you want, you can check each weekly update. I’ve come a long way from $2.81 per hour!)
I was referred to a tool called CitySpark that may help us streamline our event creation.
I’ve decided to move forward with them [$150 setup + $150/mo]
My team spends hours per week manually finding events to add to our calendar.
We pay $149 per year for the plugin.
I think my costs will even out, and I can see if this makes our workflow faster and with less friction.
I’ll keep you posted!
[These are ideas we share over in the Local Media Crew if you ever want to join us!]
Other projects I’ll update over time (or provide future updates) include…
Real Estate Investing
My Daily Planner (in process…)
Remote Work Email Newsletter Project

Don’t just think outside the box — keep destroying that box 😉
