ANECDOTE

Choosing Hunger Over Seniority

  • A founder replaced senior $200k–$300k/year employees with $85k hires because younger staff shipped more and were hungrier.
  • The move reflected speed and adaptability over tenure in that leader's small team.
ADVICE

Keep Blogging As Part Of The Mix

  • Don't abandon blogging yet; continue to extract value and traffic where it still performs.
  • Milk long-form content for SEO and audience building alongside newer channels like video.
ADVICE

Use Blue-Message SMS For Higher Replies

  • Try SendBlue to send native-looking iMessage (blue) texts and boost response rates via emoji and voice replies.
