And how to use this intel to increase conversions. Adam highlights the effectiveness of user testing, email surveys, and website analytics tools in gathering customer feedback.

Just 22% of people approaching retirement age said they'll have enough money to maintain a comfortable standard of living, according to the 2022 Schroders US Retirement Survey, down from 26% a year ago. Adam Costa retired at 40 while traveling the world; he's now dedicated to helping others improve their lives one day at a time. “I am the founder and Head of Education for DailyBetter.org, which provides free education in the form of daily email courses. Back in 2010 I was $6,000 in debt, working two jobs, and at my wits end. That's when my wife and I hit the road. In 2021—after 11 years and 30+ different countries—we both retired at the age of 40. What we learned is that most money advice is outdated. You can travel the world NOW (rather than wait until retirement) and live a champagne lifestyle on a beer budget. You can also retire far sooner than most people just by understanding the rules of the game and be willing to think (and live) unconventionally.” I've advised over 140 companies—and grown every single one that implemented my ideas. A few of my "wins" include: - Producing $1.3 million in annual revenue for an energy company (which was only in one state— that result is worth much, much more when they roll it out nationwide) - Generating over $3 million in additional revenue for an education company - Creating over $10 million in additional annual revenue for a weight-loss company - Doubling the revenue for an app that helps real estate agents get more leads In addition, I've written copy for billion-dollar companies, and published over 100 articles on conversion and marketing for sites like Business Insider and Aweber. He joined me this week to tell me more. For more information: https://dailybetter.org/ Get the Book: https://dailybetter.org/book/
In this episopde we cover the Hobie Kayak Bream Series , Round 3 Georges River , April 7-8, 2018. Before the angler interviews I quickly run through the statistics and tide conditions that were present on this weekend. I talked with the winner Chris Purnell where and how he caught his winning fish. In this discussion Chris tells me about a lure he used that I have never owned. Chris also shares how he powered away from the field.... that was not following. Coming in second was Adam Costa who gave a great insight into his competition weekend. Adam also told me how Hobie Kayak Champion Angler Stewy Dunn came to the rescue with some hard to find lures in a special colour. Rounding out the top three was Kris Hickson. Kris talked me through his weekend and ran through how he targetted and caught his fish.
