Happy Monday! After growing my LinkedIn from 27,000 to 146,000 followers in just 6 months, one thing has become crystal clear to me: Your personal zero-to-hero story is your most powerful marketing angle. So, here's an easy step-by-step guide for telling yours in a way that's truly compelling. When Should You Look For A New 3PL? The top 3PLs fill up before peak season has started, so if you start looking in Q4 it's usually too late. But this quarter and next quarter you can find excellent 3PLs that are taking on new clients, especially if you know where to look. At Fulfill.com, there are 350+ fulfillment centers that specialize in different niches, solutions, capabilities, and storage requirements. You can use their marketplace to identify top 3PLs and get introduced in less than a week. It's a good idea to start looking now in order to give yourself the most options for a new 3PL partner. Request your 3PL search at Fulfill.com to get matched with quality fulfillment centers for free. sponsored Make More Money From Your Email List: Your abandonment email sending pool (aka your browse, cart, and checkout abandonment flows) is up to 90% smaller than it should be. Your visitors/subscribers are ONLY getting abandonment emails if they are logged in to Shopify. If they bought on a laptop, but abandoned on a mobile device, they aren't getting messages. You probably didn't even know you were missing out on this revenue. They have a solution called Reclaim that solves this massive issue. Your abandonment emails are your highest converting, most valuable emails, & this is the easiest (and ONLY) way to send out 5x more of them. This is a very easy, "set-it-and-forget-it" way to juice up holiday and Q1 returns. You can also use this tech to send SMS. However, it's only worth it if you're big enough to be making several thousand dollars per month on your abandonment emails in the first place. And it's been working so well for my clients that I joined as an advisor. Increase your email & SMS revenue. Hire Amazing Freelance Marketers The world is moving towards hiring flexible labor. It's often more cost-effective and more efficient. And you can find amazing talent this way that you otherwise couldn't hire (these people don't want full-time, in-house roles). I wanted to share a platform I've been using to hire amazing freelance marketers. Last year the companies I own did a combined 8+ figures in revenue, and the key to growth was working with the best people I could find. Most of the top people I worked with were freelancers. Nothing against full-time, in-house hires, but I've noticed a trend that the best people are leaving 9-5's to work for themselves. And freelancing and consulting are really attractive options for many awesome marketers. If you're looking to hire great freelance marketers, use this platform.  sponsored Recommended Newsletters: I'm excited to share 4 newsletters I've been enjoying lately.

Every time someone uses a coupon code, your margins literally SHRINK. Check out what happens when you switch to a CashBack model instead: - 17% of people request cashback - 26% of people request store credit - 57% DO NOTHING In other words, you literally add $4,035.44 back to your bottom line since it's gone unclaimed. The beauty of this model is that shoppers pay full price and then redeem post-purchase for either cash or store credit. But the reality is more than 50% never redeem either. And those that redeem store credit will spend $$$ with you in the future. Between unclaimed $$$ and those that opt for store credit, you're now WAY more profitable. This is crushing for my clients, so I just joined Fondue, the app that powers this, as an advisor. Learn more about them here. Have a great week and make sure to send some emails!  - Chase P.S.
