    Quick Summary

    In this manual, we cover three mental models for business success.

    Because a lot of you are entrepreneurs, investors, solo producers, consultants, online teachers, and coaches, and a lot of others are interested in launching businesses in these fields, this manual will focus on marketing and customer-getting models. We will talk about how to apply mental models in order to take advantage of some of the opportunities that the unprecedented times we live in have brought to the fore.

    Growing or adapting your business at this time needn’t take away from helping others. One might even argue that making yourself more financially sound right now sets you up to do more good in the immediate and long-term future. It doesn’t need to be either/or. We can do both.

    Blockbuster

    The Blockbuster model aims to help you get published on top sites in your niche, write articles that go viral, build your business completely off of content (if you want), get people knocking on your door to work with you, and scale the number of people you reach.

    Thought LeadershipThought Leadership
    Thought Leadership

    Increasingly, thought leadership is becoming an important aspect of career success, whether you’re an employee or an entrepreneur. The steps we present in this mastery manual are ultimately the 20% of skills that will give you 80% of results as a thought leader. It’s essential to be at least competent in each of the skills.

    Trademark Idea

    A trademark idea is a word that you coin that becomes a centerpiece of your thought leadership that you become known for, and people start using it in their life. This manual walks you through the process of developing your trademark ideas.

    Sell Your SawdustSell Your Sawdust
    Sell Your Sawdust

    Selling Your Sawdust is the process of turning the by-products of your learning process that you’d normally throw away (which, in my experience, is over 90% of notes) into products that can be valuable to other people.

    A digital garden is a public repository where you share your sawdust. In this manual, we’ll take a deeper look into digital gardens and do a step-by-step walkthrough of one of the apps that make them possible.

    Quotable CreatorQuotable Creator
    Quotable Creator

    Rather than the typical approach of writing long forms and getting everything out of your head, the Quotable Creator approach is more about writing one really good sentence at a time and practicing creating a sentence so good that others would regularly share it; then adding the next sentence, the next one, and so on.

    Value HookValue Hook
    Value Hook

    In many ways, if you're a better communicator but not as much of an expert, you'll probably be more successful in business and get more customers than someone who's a better expert but terrible at communication. One might even argue that your survival as a business owner depends on your ability to communicate online and that mastering that skill is in the 80/20 of running a successful business.

    Visual ThinkingVisual Thinking
    Visual Thinking

    As visual thinking is a huge area, in this manual we focus on scratching the surface and helping you develop the 80/20 of visual thinking skills for thought leaders. That means we will learn about turning sentences (quotes) into visuals, and build from there.

    Idea Value ChainIdea Value Chain
    Idea Value Chain

    One of the big challenges for thought leaders is how to process all the knowledge we collected and present it in a way that’s systematic and beneficial to both us and the people we share it with. That’s what the Idea Value Chain model aims to solve.

    Idea MachineIdea Machine
    Idea Machine

    This model of Idea Machine has technology as a big part of it and that’s because we are in a period of unprecedented change driven by technology. Rapid change is confusing for most people and that gives an opportunity to thought leaders to see the meteors coming and to think and talk about them in advance. As the change comes you could be the thought leader who contextualizes the change and explains what's happening.
