Sam Parr's CopyThat is the only course I've ever finished. That's because it's short (10 days) and unbelievably impactful. I even go back and re-do it from time to time. Even better, Sam just launched a whopping 50% commission affiliate program! So you bet I signed up:

The Acquired podcast is still one of my favourites. It's hard to find the time to listen to 3 hour pods, but when I do, I always enjoy the heck out of it. The IKEA ep was unreal. Solo founder. Bootstrapped. Absolute hustler. No other business in the world like it.

Some of my fav Black Friday emails have been from
@jayclouse.bsky.social
and
@ugmonk.bsky.social
. Jeff always writes simple emails and features a bunch of other small brands on Sat. Jay has a masterfully persuasive line: "To be honest, I'm undercharging, and it makes me a little uncomfortable."

Wanted to get a BF email out to customers. Lots of ecomm all look the same so went with the plain text approach. Not sure if this will convert better or worse but I kinda like it.
