How do i get caught up to speed

I suggest starting with the first post and moving to the next after you're done. The great thing about Tim's work is most of it is evergreen meaning it doesn't have an expiration date. You can keep learning from it.

The first $10k comes from showing up and providing value, not from secret frameworks.

A newsletter is so important for creators and founders today. With social media content only lasting 24 hours, AI slop, and algorithms deciding who sees your content, a newsletter is one of the best true forms of "owned platforms." You have a direct line to your followers, loyal at that because they voluntarily subscribe to you -- your potential customers.

One expansion to Tim's newsletter advice that I have that has significantly helped me go from 0 to several thousand subscribers is putting a short survey on each newsletters asking what the reader liked, didn't like, and wants to see in the next issue. Shape your newsletter based on that feedback and you'll have a loyal subscriber for life.

Great read, Tim!

P.s. Excited to see you got your company back!!
