The S.T.U.P.I.D. Email (Swipe, Thought, Uplifting, Picture, Interesting, Drawing) This is a fun email for Friday July 15th, 2022. Hope you like it :)
â ð¤ Listen to this email here: =â â Swipe: While this ad from 1956 probably wouldn't fly today, it sure passes the "Does It Get My Attention" test! â When I first saw this ad, I just HAD to read the fine text to figure out what the hell a "Lobster Test" was (turns out they just put the watch on a lobster claw to see if it would come off or break) ð That's a clear form of getting people down the "Slippery Slope." â They brought the ad home by showcasing the watch didn't skip at all because it was "shock proof." Gotta admit, I wouldn't have thought of this ð â â â Thought: I propose a way of getting all your work for the day done in 2 hours, called: "The 2-Hour Work Sprint" â It's very simple:â
⢠You write your tasks on paper.
⢠Start on #1, scratch off, go to next task.
⢠Either share your screen, or sit next to someone.
â This would be a 2 Hour Sprint that happens everyday, and would knock out: â
â All administrative tasks
â Email
â Random tasks
â Writing blog posts / social media
â Planning and scheduling I personally think the co-working aspect of this sprint is important.
Either virtual or in-person. As for the timing:â
1 hour is too short, and 2 hours seems to be working threshold. Some people may have to practice working for 2 hours straight. Watctchya think of this concept? â â â Uplifting: This is a quick life assessment you can do in your head. Your scores will change at different times in your life. Try it: Rate these three areas of life from 1 to 5:
âªï¸ Health: Rate 1-5
⪠ï¸Wealth: Rate 1-5
⪠ï¸Love: Rate 1-5 Start improving the lowest ranking one today. That's it! â â Here's some example results and the result from each: Health: 2
Wealth: 4
Love: 4
Result: Start improving your health ASAP. Health: 5
Wealth: 3
Love: 5
Result: Start planning out how to improve your finances to your expectations. Health: 4
Wealth: 5
Love: 2
Result: Put more effort into family, friends, and love interests.
â Rating Scale:â
â1: It's very bad and you want to change it immediately.
â2: It's not great, and change must be made.
â3: It's average. Not great, but not completely horrible.
â4: It's going well, could use some slight improving.
â5: It's pretty good, and you don't need a ton of improvement. â â â Picture: There's a random restaurant in Austin called El Arroyo, and the famous thing about it is it's daily sign: It's [Instagram page]( has 600,000 followers ð³ Everyday they change their sign to something kinda funny, and they post it on Instagram: â â Their food is basic Tex-Mex food, but the amount of exposure and notoriety they've got from this basic sign is amazing! One key to the success: Consistency. They've been changing the sign everyday since 1975! â â â Interesting: Here's some questions you can poke-n-prod at your own business: â Here's 10 more: â Here's even 10 morrreee: â And even 10 moooorrreeeeee! â Today I'm working on a post with all of these, and adding examples to every single one (I'm up to 87 so far):
â[CopywritingCourse.com/blogs/69-business-questions](=)â That page should be updated throughout the day as I write more! â â â Drawing: Ok, this is kind of random, but I've always wanted to use this silly image of "The Guy Peeking Over the Wall" on something: â â It's never been that great of an image. Like try to show him looking at an old ad or something. â â Meh....it doesn't work that well. â But now he currently shows up as the error message I hastily made when someone tries to look at [community content](, but is not a member: â â Hope you enjoyed these little tidbits, have a happy Friday!
