Ever just wanted to quit? GO FOR IT! Might be the smartest thing you ever do. Hereâs whyâŚ
Even the âexpertsâ quit. Actually, they quit about 100x more than the ârestâ of us.
Huh? Isnât quitting bad? YouTubeâs full of âthe only way to lose is to quitâ mantras.
Ok, Iâll explain.
The smart ones know itâs âquit but never give up.â (I first heard this from Felix Dennis in his awesome book with the cringe title âHow To Get Richâ).
When you see somethingâs not working, whatâs better - quit and try something else or just keep going, doing more of whatâs not working?
See! Youâre getting it.
Todayâs little gem is why to quit podcast sponsors. (I stole this example from my fave membership expert Jay Clouse on Creator Science - go listen here).
He designed his digital biz to make $500k and itâs working (Primary product is a premium community at $2k/year or $3k with 2 hours consulting x 200 members max).
But when it came to sponsors, he quit. It just wasnât worth the headache.
His new and improved plan? Quit selling one off, low dollar sponsor deals with separate agencies handling his podcast and newsletter (double the work).
Now heâs selling longer term, higher value packages that include placement on all his media properties - YouTube, podcast, newsletter & community. Itâs less work and a better value for the sponsor. Win win!
But first he had to quit.
Scary? Yep. Worth a bit of painful transition? Yep.
For me Iâm quitting NEW - just doing more of what works.
Whatâs one thing you need to quit today?
