Shortcuts you can use to grow your brand
I'm growing my personal brand at 40,339% month-over-month.

Things are going well.
I think I'm onto something here folks.
My mission is to help 10 million entrepreneurs live their dreams.
These are 10 tools I used to grow the Herb community to 14+ million.
This issue takes 3 mins to read 👇
On a side note, next Friday I am putting on a FREE LIVE Content Creation Cheat Codes Workshop to teach you how to build a community of 1+ million people using content and copywriting shortcuts. Join here if you're interested.
I'd love to see you there ❤️
1. Beehiiv
I'm growing The Soulful Entrepreneur email list at 1,467 subscribers a week. This community will likely be over 1 million in 1 year.
It's exciting.
The key to any business is driving an owned audience (email + SMS).
I use Beehiiv for email.
2. Hypefury
My Twitter audience is going stratospheric 🚀
I help people scale their brand, build systems, and live their dreams.
Hypefury is my secret weapon.
I've grown from 5k to 36k followers in 60 days. I'll be at 250k+ by the end of the year.
Let's giddy up 🤠
3. Shield App
LinkedIn is a beast.
You can grow like wildfire on that platform using similar strategies to Twitter 🔥
I optimize my content and growth using Shield App.
My favorite feature is this word cloud they create based on why people are engaging with my content:
4. Streaks App
Health is wealth.
In order to be successful, you need to be at peak performance.
Every morning I:
Do a guided mindfulness meditation
Get sunlight in my eyes
Lift heavy weights
Stretch my body
Write
Entrepreneurs are athletes.
I track my habits using Streaks:
5. Calendly
I speak with over 34 mentors and advisors a week.
My thirst for knowledge is unquenchable.
Most weeks I'm drinking from a firehose!
In order to keep up, I need an efficient way of scheduling.
That's where Calendly comes in.
Give it a try.
Save time.
6. Yesware
I closed $2,964,500 in deals in 2021.
Sales is a numbers game. The more people I email, the more people I talk to.
The more people I talk to, the more deals I close.
Yesware enables me to send 1,000x more emails by saving common phrases and templates.
It's an absolute weapon.
7. Calm
Meditation is mental hygiene.
I do a guided mindfulness meditation every morning using Calm.
Entrepreneurship is a marathon, not a sprint.
Take care of yourself.
Slow is smooth and smooth is fast.
8. Spotify
I would be nothing if it weren't for my playlists.
My typical focus session involves:
A prioritized list of tasks I want to complete
Crushing tasks for 4 hours straight
Getting up and enjoying in nature
9. Figma
When I'm not building I'm designing.
It's a passion of mine.
The best tool for design is Figma.
It feels like I have a superpower.
Ship products faster.
10. Grammarly
My pet peeve is people that have horrible grammar, organization, and formatting.
I recommend everyone install Grammarly.
Compose bold, clear, mistake-free wiritng with Grammarly's AI-powered tool.
Brilliant writing awaits.
That's it!
💎 Gem of the Week 💎
I’ve failed 100+ times in business.
3 times, I figured out a way and made a profitable company and formidable brand.
I’ve failed over and over again in life.
No matter what, I continued.
I persisted.
That is why I’m successful.
