Final Thoughts For The Week
Are you aware that this isn’t my only newsletter?
Every Sunday morning, I also send a supplementary email with a suggested action you may take in 15 minutes or less to make progress toward your goals.
The Creator Accelerator is the name of the programme.
It’s popular among subscribers.
I’ve been assisting them for the past few weeks…
- Expand their social media network • Become known by people whose work they admire • Improve communication with their teams, partners, clients, and/or fans • Create possibilities to be “lucky”
The emails aren’t free; a $10 monthly subscription is required.
However, this is one of the reasons why it works so well for people.
If you pay for advise, you’re more likely to follow it than if you obtain it for free.
Because you’ve put your money where your mouth is.
So…
If you’d want to check it out, put some money down, and put my recommendations into action, I’d be happy to share them with you.

Thank you for your enthusiasm.
Have a wonderful week.
