Val Geisler - the "someday maybe" list

We all have one.

It's that list of things you'll do one day for your business.

Everyone's list looks a little different. Yours might include:

  • hiring a bookkeeper instead of doing your books yourself
  • pre-scheduling blog posts for a month in the summer so you can take a writing break
  • starting a YouTube channel
  • creating a followup system for past clients
  • building a new opt in

Actually, most people just like you include "build a proper sales funnel that reflects my brand and business goals" in their Someday Maybe List.

My friend David has a running Someday Maybe List.

For the longest time he was trying to figure out what to do with his email list.

So he called me up.

Who am I kidding? Who calls people anymore???

David texted me:

I get texts like this a lot.

"How do I see the forest for the trees when I AM A TREE?"

So I spent a little under an hour on a call with David hashing it out. We worked together in a Google Doc. He word vomited at me about his list, his goals, and this whole series of emails he had spent hours thinking through but never actually put on paper.

Did ya get that?

He had already built the funnel in his head but never did anything with it.

Paralysis by analysis.

I helped David get unstuck and his list is exploding now. Not just in numbers but in engagement. His open rates and click rates have skyrocketed.

People want to get David's emails.

David and I spent less than an hour together and he walked away with his Someday Maybe List looking a lot shorter.

You and I can do the same thing.

Maybe you don't need a half or full day like I mentioned the other day.

Maybe you just have some questions and need some answers. Or a push toward the direction you kinda already maybe wanted to go anyways.

I can do that for you.

We can strategize, write, and plan together.

In less than an hour, you can have a foundation for that one thing that's actually going to make a difference in your business.

Here are the details. Let's make your "someday" happen today.

-Val
