Howdy!

Every week I share the business projects I’m working on — I’m excited to hang out with you.

I’m asked what tools I use in my business. Here’s my tool list, AI tool list, and money-making ideas to help you with your income stream building. Reply to this email and ask me anything - happy to help. A note: I always use referral links when I have them. I will make a commission if you purchase through the links, so thanks!

As always, a ton going on in the AI world.

Sam Altman just announced their browser, ChatGPT Atlas, a few hours ago.

The battle for your browser 👀 is officially in full force.

Regarding Sora, the newest app by OpenAI, you guys used up all of my invite codes!

Totally cool.

Funny, as I’m an Android user, it’s still not even available for me to use on my mobile device.

According to the Sora leader, it passed 1,000,000 users in a week and did it faster than ChatGPT did.

Here’s my Sora profile if you want to link up.

My buddy Jason of My Money Chronicles asked me some fun questions and did a write up. Check it out here! 

For my friends looking to launch a newsletter (especially a local newsletter), I put together this video with what tools you absolutely must have to get going.

🤖 Automations

I’m testing out my first voice agent using Elevenlabs.

I’m using it on our Silent Disco website to help collect info from people interested in throwing a silent disco.

I’ve made 5 or 6 calls to it (her) for testing and every time you make an update it instantly takes that into consideration using it’s instructions.

It’s really cool!

Now I’m trying to figure out how to get it to transfer the call to me on my cell phone if someone needs to speak with a “manager.”

I’ll keep you posted!

🧑‍💻 My New Software Tool

We’re making some progress on our Google Analytics insights tool.

My developer partner is now able to sign in with his Google account.

It’s a tool to make Google Analytics easier and use AI to help analyze and create insights!

I had the idea because looking at Google Analytics reports are horrific.

I also know that AI is smart enough to help discover some insights from the data.

Can’t wait to get it live — feel free to sign up here to get notified when we go live.

If you have ideas for it as we go, let me know!

Amazon Influencer Program [Update]

I’ve made more than $3,000 in 2025.

I periodically make videos for brands that reach out, and I charge them (so I get paid there as well).

But, some updates…

I have 141 147 videos.

(plus 90 videos from other creators..)

My total earnings equal $4,752.19 $5,321.44

After expenses, I’m making $103.25 $107.34 per hour.

Don’t just think outside the box — keep destroying that box 😉
