That\u2019s what I\u2019ve got to look forward to over the next 48 hours.<\/p>\n
We\u2019re babysitting Holly\u2019s cousin\u2019s four children. They\u2019re all under five and two of them are babies.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s a bit like going to war.<\/p>\n
Our weapons are toys and activities. We have to distract the enemy so that they don\u2019t realise our plan is to exhaust them so they can\u2019t do anything except sleep.<\/p>\n
My escape\u2026<\/p>\n
\u2026writing emails.<\/p>\n
I\u2019ve got this uncanny ability to zone out from the world when I\u2019m writing. Anything can be going on around me and I don\u2019t hear it and it doesn\u2019t affect me.<\/p>\n
But I don\u2019t tell anybody else that, I make them think I need to go to a cafe to get some work done \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n
Yesterday I got asked by James when he should start selling to his list.<\/p>\n
My reply\u2026 \u201cIf you\u2019re asking me then you\u2019re already behind.<\/i>\u201d<\/p>\n
The best time to start selling to your list is on day one. Ignore the people who say you shouldn\u2019t sell to your list for one, two, three or even more weeks.<\/p>\n
Why are you building a list?<\/i><\/p>\n
To sell your products to it.<\/p>\n
When are your leads hottest?<\/i><\/p>\n
The day they first join your list.<\/p>\n
Why would you wait to begin selling to them!<\/b><\/p>\n
If they don\u2019t want to have your products or hear what you\u2019ve got to say, then they don\u2019t want to be on your list.<\/p>\n
