Few weeks back, the sump pump at my grandparents house broke.


They woke up one morning and found their basement flooded.


And, had to spend about $10k to redo their carpeting, repaint their walls, and move new furniture into their basement.


Why am I telling you this?


Because I want to, mf, that’s why.


Jokes aside:


I had to help them move their furniture around.


And it made me grateful that I have my own business.


Here’s the story:


This all happened on a Friday morning.


I got a call from my grandpa that he needed my help.


So what did I do?


I dropped everything and went over to help.


We worked from 10 am until about 12:30 pm moving furniture around.


And, this is an example of something I wouldn’t have been able to do if I had a J-O-B.


I would’ve been stuck at work, unable to help.


And that wouldn’t have been fair to my grandparents.


They came to every sports game I played when I grew up. And I had a different game almost every day because I played football, basketball, and baseball.


They came to a decent amount of shows when I was in a band that played 2-3 times every weekend.


They’ve always been available when I needed them, with no questions asked. There was a time when “high school me” needed Triple AAA and my grandpa came so I could get my car towed.


It was just one of those “epiphany moments” when I realized I made the right decision by quitting my cushy job 2.5 years ago to start my own thang.


Plus, it reminded me that there are some things more important than biz:


Family.


Anyway, none of my clients freaked out. None of them even knew I disappeared for 2.5 hours during the week.


And here’s why it matters to you:


When you hire someone to run your email marketing, you can enjoy the same level of freedom too.


Have a family emergency come up?


Don’t worry, we can still send emails and make money. (Heck, we can even write an email about the situation, like I did here.)


Wanna travel the world for a month straight?


Go ahead. I’ll keep your emails running like a printing press.


Just don’t feel like working?


Doesn't matter. Our ship is still headed towards the Brinks truck.


Anyway, I started this biz for the freedom I enjoy.


And besides sticking it to the “man,” freedom is the most popular reason for starting a biz.


So if you ain’t free with your own biz?


I can help.


All you need is a proven offer and an email list.



We’ll start printing money and printing freedom together. So you can enjoy the more important parts of life, like your family.
