🕵️‍♂️ How to Steal content ideas from your audience

Today's email is brought by The Truth About Passive Income​

The content that converts followers into subscribers and then subscribers into buyers is content that solves your audience’s problems.

But what are those problems?

If we can’t figure them out, we can’t solve them.

And as far as I know, we can’t get into our audience’s head yet (best not to give Elon ideas).

So what do we do? How can we figure out exactly what our audience needs?

This is The Steal Club so, in good thief fashion, we are going to steal those problems directly for them.

There are two ways to do it.

One works if you already have an audience. The second one works even if you don’t have one.

I will tell you everything about it in this week’s article. 👇

And now, let's jump into this week's sponsor...

NEW Mini-Book: The Truth About Passive Income

Right now you can get an 8-page preview of The Truth About Passive Income…

We all know a job is not passive income.

We all know creating new content is great but it's a business and NOT passive income.

A business is often MORE ACTIVE than a job.

This new Mini-Book is about a NEW 3rd alternative…

Income without time, energy or cash BOGDOWN!

It's called PIGGY-BANKING.

There are only 3 ingredients and only takes 22 pages to explain.

And with AI, it's never been faster to create new passive income…

Right now, you get 8 pages to preview and decide if you want it.

If you do?

It's super cheap.

Either way, just the free preview is so good you may not be able to sleep tonight…

📮 The reality that people don't want to hear about building a newsletter​

This is a long-form Twitter/X post with insights from someone who has grown to +18,000 subscribers in the last 7 months.

We often see the quick growth and wish we were like them, but we fail to see that it usually takes decades (and many $$$) to get there.

🫂 Case Neistat on choosing a winning environment​

Casey argues that the key to success is surrounding yourself with like-minded people in your field and getting as close to the action as possible.

Being around others doing what you love is contagious and helps you level up your skills.

And I can't agree more. That's why I started The Steal Club Membership: to surround myself with other creators and do cool stuff together.

🤝 TACTIC: How the VeryGoodCopy newsletter gets more testimonials for their courses

They exchange something super valuable for them (a testimonial) for something super useful for the person leaving it (a backlink on a high domain authority site).

It's a win-win and a great incentive 👇

This reminds me of how Jay Clouse encourages listeners to leave podcast reviews: One review = 1 free masterclass of your choosing 👇

It must work because he has over 350 reviews!

Some of these are affiliate links, ads, or links from friends
