For The Interested - FTI #314: Let's do something.
It's easy to feel things are out of our control.
And while we can't control everything, that doesn't mean we can't do something to make a difference.
I've decided to do something about the travesty that's happening to women's rights in this country.
I'm going to donate 100% of sales from anyone who subscribes to my Skill Sessions this week to Planned Parenthood.
Plus, I'll match all purchases with an equal personal donation of my own.
If you subscribe this week you'll get access to my best systems to grow your audience and business - and more importantly, you'll help women across this country get access to care they need.
Together, we'll do something.
Now, on to this week's ideas...

The Starting Five
1. How To Be More Strategic With Your Newsletter
I was a guest on the Craftsman Creative podcast recently and shared my thoughts about how to write and grow a newsletter including tips about how to find your niche, get subscribers, and get the most out of the effort you put into it.
2. How To Write Headlines That Work
Not only does this give you eight effective headline formats you can "borrow," it also explains how to come up with your own and write articles that live up to your headlines.
3. Casey Neistat's 10 Secrets To Creative Productivity
Ever wonder how Casey gets stuff done and maintains such high quality in his creations? In this video Ryan Holiday shares what he's learned from him including how he finds motivation, does less better, and develops courage.
4. How To Use The Relative Pricing Pyramid To Price Your Products And Services
This is aimed at writers, but the underlying concepts - especially the two common pricing mistakes creators make - apply to anything you want to sell.
5. How To Write A Top 1% Twitter Thread
Not only will this help you avoid common mistakes, but it will also show you how to format your tweets, write a great call to action at the end, and even gives you three killer opening tweets you can use for your next thread.
