$80 Million Starts with a $12 Sale + AI Challenge Leaderboard!

I've got a couple of VERY interesting stories that I'd like to share with you today.

The first is about an $80 million/year business that started with a simple $12 sale.

Next, I have a 4 month update for the "build a NEW site using AI" challenge! We have new leaders!

First up is the story of Noah Kagan.

You may have heard of Noah, he's the founder of AppSumo.

His story is absolutely incredible. An early employee at Facebook. An early employee at Mint.

But his real success came when he reached out to a few friends and found a deal on some software.

He made $12.

I'm excited to share that Noah is on the Niche Pursuits Podcast today!

You can listen to TONS of business insights that Noah gives in his full-interview right here.


Noah JUST released a brand new book called "Million Dollar Weekend".

In the book and in the podcast episode today, he shares stories of how people can launch a business in as little as 2 days.

He shows you how to cut out all the fluff and get to what matters...making more money.

The AI Content Challenge...We Have a New Leader!

After 4 months, we are starting to see some big movements with participants sites.

People are getting more and more traffic from Google as their sites age and they add content.

The leaders at the 2 month mark, are no longer the leaders at the 4 month mark!

Go ahead and check out the full 4 month leaderboard for the AI Challenge Here.

The current leader went the programmatic SEO + AI content route and has published about 7,000,000 articles.

Honestly, I'm not sure how I feel about that.

I'm hoping we have other challengers that climb in the ranks and show some other ways AI content can do well in Google as well.

You can see the full results + commentary on the 4 month AI Results Right Here

Thanks again,

Spencer
