If you're a coach, blogger, or online entrepreneur struggling to make consistent income from your digital products, you're not alone. Most creators try to sell one digital product and fail because they're missing a crucial piece of the puzzle: a systematic approach that transforms low-paying customers into high-value clients. In my latest episode of The Blogger Genius Podcast, I revealed the exact AI-powered system that successful creators use to build $10,000+ monthly businesses. This isn't theory—it's the proven strategy that MiloTree users like Sarah have used to grow from 200 email subscribers to $11,000 monthly revenue in just six months. In this post, we'll unpack how to create a digital product ladder, use AI to build your entire system, and leverage MiloTree to handle all the tech without the headache. Show Notes: MiloTree Free Plan Digital Product Ladder AI Prompt (Free Download) 6 Purchasing Triggers Test Join The Blogger Genius Newsletter Become a Blogger Genius Facebook Group Subscribe to the Blogger Genius Podcast: iTunes YouTube Spotify Why Most Digital Product Creators Fail (And How to Avoid Their Mistakes) The biggest mistake creators make is building products they're passionate about instead of solving problems people actually pay to solve. Before you create anything, your digital product idea must pass what I call the “Purchasing Triggers Test.” Your product needs to do at least two of these six things: Make someone money Save them money Save them time Move them toward happiness Move them away from pain Raise their social status If your idea doesn't hit at least two triggers, don't build it. You'll waste months creating something nobody wants to buy. Let's test this with a real example: “Time Management for Busy Moms” ✅ Save them time? Absolutely ✅ Move them toward happiness? Yes (less stress, more family time) ✅ Move them away from pain? Yes (overwhelm and guilt) This passes with flying colors because it hits three triggers. The Digital Product Ladder System That Creates $10K Months Here's what successful creators understand that others don't: instead of selling one product, they build a digital product ladder. This system starts with a free valuable resource and guides customers through increasingly valuable solutions at higher price points. The magic happens when someone who downloads your free guide eventually becomes a $2,000 mastermind member. That's how you reach $10,000 monthly revenue—not by selling a million $10 products. The 6-Step Digital Product Ladder Framework Step 1: Free Valuable Resource (Freebie) Solves one specific problem Delivers a quick, tangible win Gets people on your email list Step 2: Tripwire Product ($7-$27) Small purchase on your thank-you page Naturally follows from the freebie Turns subscribers into buyers Step 3: Product Bundle ($47-$97) Combines multiple resources Provides comprehensive results Higher perceived value Step 4: Mini Course or Coaching Package ($197-$497) Structured learning experience Leads customers toward membership More hands-on support Step 5: Monthly Membership ($27-$97/month) Ongoing support and community Recurring revenue stream Builds long-term relationships Step 6: Premium Mastermind ($997-$2,997) High-touch program For serious implementers Your highest revenue generator The AI Prompt That Builds Your Entire Business Model in 30 Seconds Here's the game-changing AI prompt that creates your complete digital product ladder system. Simply go to ChatGPT (the free version works fine) and enter this prompt with your specific details: “I want to create a complete digital product ladder for [YOUR NICHE/TOPIC]. Help me design a six-step customer journey that transforms a free subscriber into a high-value customer. Step 1: Create a valuable freebie that solves one specific pain point and delivers a quick, tangible win. Step 2: Design a tripwire product that's something small I can sell on the thank-you page after someone joins my list. This product should naturally follow from the freebie and provide deeper value. Step 3: Develop a product bundle that combines multiple resources for comprehensive results. Step 4: Structure a mini course or coaching package that ultimately leads customers into joining my membership. Step 5: Design a monthly membership that provides ongoing support and community. Step 6: Create a premium mastermind or high-touch program for serious implementers. For each step, provide the product concept, main benefits, suggested price, and how it connects to the next level.” How MiloTree Eliminates the Tech Overwhelm The biggest obstacle most creators face isn't knowing what to create—it's the technical setup. How do you actually build all this without getting overwhelmed by complicated tech? This is where MiloTree becomes your secret weapon. You can set up each step of your ladder—from your freebie to your mastermind membership—right inside MiloTree without needing a website or expensive tech tools. Why MiloTree is Perfect for Digital Product Ladders: 1. AI-Powered Sales Pages MiloTree's AI writes your sales pages for you. You use AI to create the products, then use AI to sell them. It's like having a sales team working 24/7 to move customers up your ladder. 2. Hassle-Free Setup Set up products in under 5 minutes No tech skills required AI tools handle the heavy lifting 3. Complete Delivery System MiloTree handles the delivery of your digital downloads directly to your customers. No complicated email sequences or third-party integrations needed. 4. Start for Free With MiloTree's Free Plan, you can: Sell one digital product Offer one freebie Add one social media pop-up to your site 5. With the MiloTree Grow Plan Sell digital products Offer unlimited freebies Grow your email list Build customer relationships Scale with affordable plans Your Action Plan: Start Building Your Digital Product Ladder Today Ready to transform your online business? Here's exactly what to do: Step 1: Test Your Idea Use the six purchasing triggers test. If your idea doesn't hit at least two triggers, pick a different problem to solve. Step 2: Use the AI Prompt Copy the complete digital product ladder AI prompt and run it through ChatGPT with your specific niche details. Step 3: Start with Your Freebie Don't try to build everything at once. Start with step one—your valuable freebie that gets people on your email list. Step 4: Set Up Your Tech Stack Sign up for MiloTree's Free Plan and create your opt-in page. You can have your freebie live and collecting emails within the hour. Step 5: Build Systematically Once your freebie is working, add your tripwire product, then your bundle, and so on. Build your ladder one step at a time. Free Resources to Get You Started

Episode 1795: Sandra Kenrick reveals why charging by the hour keeps freelancers underpaid and undervalued, and how switching to value-based pricing transforms both income and client respect. She outlines a practical way to align pricing with the true impact of your work, helping freelancers build stronger businesses and long-term financial stability. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.iwillteachyoutoberich.com/blog/freelance-hourly-rate/ Quotes to ponder: “Charging hourly rates is the biggest mistake you can make as a freelancer.” “Value-based pricing is when you charge based on the value your work provides to your client, not the number of hours you work.” “When you charge based on value, you get paid more, you attract better clients, and you're no longer stuck trading hours for dollars.” Episode references: The Personal MBA: https://www.amazon.com/Personal-MBA-Master-Art-Business/dp/1591845572 Alan Weiss on Value-Based Fees: https://alanweiss.com/shop/books/value-based-fees/ The Four-Hour Workweek: https://www.amazon.com/4-Hour-Workweek-Escape-Live-Anywhere/dp/0307465357 Learn more about your ad choices.

“You have to love what you do, especially in healthcare, and the earlier you find that, the better. So that's why I love to see HOSA helping young people find what it is that they want to do,” says Dr. David Kelly, a fellow in oculofacial surgery at University of California San Francisco and HOSA's board chair. You can still hear the excitement in Dr. Kelly's voice describing his earliest experiences with HOSA -- a student led organization with 300,000 plus members that prepares future health professionals to become leaders in international health – even though they happened sixteen years ago when he was a sophomore in highschool. Through hundreds of competitive events and hands-on projects, HOSA creates a framework for developing skills in communication, professionalism and leadership starting in middle school. Programs are offered throughout highschool and college as well, which Dr. Kelly took advantage of before becoming an active alumnus and joining the HOSA board as a way of giving back to an organization that has given so much to him. Since taking the reins as board chair last year, one key focus has been preparing to mark HOSA's 50th anniversary in 2026. Dr. Kelly sees the occasion as not only an opportunity to celebrate what HOSA has accomplished, but to ensure it is positioned to continue helping the healthcare industry tackle important challenges in the future. Examples include chronic workforce shortages and improving how clinicians communicate with patients and team members. Join host Lindsey Smith on this uplifting Raise the Line episode for an optimistic look at the next generation of healthcare leaders.Mentioned in this episode:HOSAHOSA Alumni Registration If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

Title: Why High Earners Stay Broke (and How to Escape the W-2 Trap) with Rich Fettke Summary: On this episode of Raise the Bar Radio, Seth Bradley welcomes Rich Fettke, co-founder of Real Wealth, to share his incredible journey from a life-threatening cancer scare to building a real estate empire. Rich explains how his wife's pivot to real estate investing during his health crisis led to the creation of Real Wealth, which has since helped over 70,000 members acquire more than $1.2 billion in assets. Together, Seth and Rich dive deep into the mindset shift required to escape the grind, the importance of clarity and vision, and why hard assets like real estate are the key to sustainable wealth, freedom, and major tax advantages — especially for high-income professionals like attorneys and doctors. Rich also breaks down the difference between passive and active investing, explaining how Real Wealth offers vetted markets and property teams for investors who want a more hands-off experience. He shares insights from his book The Wise Investor, which is designed to inspire readers to take control of their financial futures through compelling storytelling. Wrapping up, Seth and Rich emphasize the power of passive income in creating freedom, reducing stress, and ultimately living life on your own terms without sacrificing health, family, or personal passions.

Click here now to access the tool > How to Raise Your Visibility on LinkedIn Without Feeling Loud or Pushy For many business owners, LinkedIn can feel overwhelming. But it can also be one of the most powerful places to connect with your dream clients and potential collaborators and grow. It's a place where thoughtful voices are heard and real opportunities can take root. So this week on The Brilliant Book Festival, I was delighted to be joined by Louise Brogan, author of Raise Your Visibility on LinkedIn. Her approach is refreshingly different: no cold messages, no forcing yourself into someone else's mould, just clear, consistent steps that help you build a presence people trust. Louise shows us that visibility isn't about being the loudest. It's about being the one who shows up with clarity, humanity, and the quiet confidence to let your expertise speak for itself. Prefer to WATCH instead of read? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=72DfGZtzUws “The people who decide you're the expert are the people watching you show up.” – Louise Brogan Why Visibility Matters For many introverted entrepreneurs, the idea of “getting visible” online can feel daunting. Louise reminds us: visibility doesn't mean becoming someone you're not. It means showing up consistently in a way that feels natural to you, so that when potential clients need your expertise, they already trust you. LinkedIn works because: People on the platform have resources to spend. Often corporate budgets or personal income. Most people never post. They're silent observers (“hidden buyers”) waiting for the right voice to resonate.. You need to be the clearest. You don't need to be the loudest. You need to be the clearest. As Louise puts it, showing up regularly to share insights creates an ecosystem where others decide you are the expert. Becoming Seen as an Expert One of the biggest barriers to posting on LinkedIn is the feeling of: “Who am I to say this?” Louise gently reframes this. You don't need to declare yourself “the top expert in the world.” You simply need to answer the kinds of questions your dream clients are already asking. Visibility isn't about grandeur—it's about consistency. If you regularly share your perspective, your network begins to associate you with your area of expertise. Even better, others amplify you by engaging, commenting, or tagging you in conversations. As Louise explained: “The people who decide you're the expert are the people watching you show up.” The metaphor here is a pair of rowers in a boat. If both row on the same side, you go in circles. But when you learn to pull in sync from opposite sides, you glide forward faster and straighter than you ever could alone. “One thoughtful conversation outweighs a hundred copy-paste messages. LinkedIn is about networking, not spamming.” – Louise Brogan A Favourite Story: Selling Art on LinkedIn Louise shared the story of an artist who initially thought LinkedIn wasn't “for her.” Once she began posting about her work, not only did she start selling to businesses (who wanted art for their offices), but she was also featured in Vogue and went on to collaborate with a furniture designer. Why? Because LinkedIn isn't about industries—it's about people. And people buy from people they connect with. The Quiet Power of Consistency The heart of Louise's message is that LinkedIn works when you build a trusted rhythm of presence. Not through noise. Not through hacks. But by showing up in a way that feels true. If you've ever felt hesitant about LinkedIn, let Louise's story reassure you: visibility can be both strategic and soulful. You don't have to shout. You simply need to resonate, consistently. Final Thought to Reflect On What could shift for you if you used LinkedIn as a space for building steady, human connections?

Do you have questions about manifesting more money, paying off debt, or what might be ‘blocking' your money manifestations? In this ‘Ask Me Anything' episode, I answer questions from listeners just like you, who have questions about money and manifestation. For example, “How can I manifest paying off debt, especially after using manifestation methods that have yet to show results?” and other questions that YOU might have too! Of course the best way to get to the root of ANY manifestation issue is to schedule an Intuitive Energy Breakthrough Session with me! PS- if YOU want to ask a question for a future episode, go to https://francesfayden.com/question and leave me a voice message with your question! Key Learnings: 1) Question one: “How can I manifest paying off debt, especially after using manifestation methods that have yet to show results?” Answer: Paying off debt is actually the ‘how.' Stay focused on the ‘what' which is being financially free or having a million dollars in savings and investments. The more you focus on the debt, the more it will stick around. Use the ‘Core Four' practices in the Magnify Your Miracles Journal every day to help you do this. 2) Question two: “What could be blocking my money manifestation?” Answer: Let go of the idea of having a block with money. Instead, ask “what part of me doesn't feel safe receiving more money?” Or ‘why am I choosing to experience this?' A good practice to do to receive more money is forgiveness. The Universe is always mirroring our energy, so if we are withholding energy but not forgiving, the Universe withholds from us too. Forgive freely and be open to receive abundance. 3) Money is connected to the second chakra, the sacral chakra. The big issues with this chakra are emotions, relationships and creativity. If you are experiencing challenges with manifesting money, practice feeling good every day. Raise your vibration by raising your emotional frequency. Tend to any relationships that don't feel good to you, as that can be the biggest issue with manifesting and receiving money. “If you are experiencing money challenges, forgive everyone and everything ASAP!” Click here to schedule your Intuitive Energy Breakthrough Session Click here to join the Magnify Your Miracles Membership Ready to walk the path of miracles?

If you've been holding onto the same rates for too long because you're afraid of client pushback, this conversation is for you. Raising your prices isn't about being greedy—it's about protecting your business, honouring your growth, and creating space for sustainability.Key topics covered:Signs you've outgrown your current prices (hint: resentment and discounting are big red flags).Why raising your prices is a strategic business decision, not an emotional one.How to anchor into the data—profit margins, costs, and market research—so your pricing reflects real value.Three practical ways to raise your rates without losing integrity (and with a lot less fear).The emotional side of pricing shifts and why the right clients will respect and support your growth.Raising your prices isn't risky—it's a recalibration of how far you've come.ChallengePick one offer, service, or client group where your pricing needs to increase. Audit what it costs you to deliver, draft your updated rate, and either apply it to your next new client or prepare a clear notice for existing clients.Mentioned in this episode: If you are running a business in Canada and you need help with all the things accounting related, but more importantly understanding the numbers I invite you to check out https://thriveaccounting.co/Staci's Links:Instagram.

House committee Democrats are raising alarms about the Agriculture Department's relocation and reorganization plans. In a letter to USDA Secretary Brooke Rollins, lawmakers from the Education and Workforce Committee warned that USDA's plans would lead to worsening services. They're calling on Rollins to explain the rationale for relocating thousands of USDA employees in the D.C. area. They're also pressing for answers on which, if any, officials or stakeholders USDA consulted with before moving forward with its plans.

What if the key to parenting isn't molding your child into a smaller version of you—but learning to truly see them for who they are? In this deeply moving conversation, Ian Morgan Cron, bestselling author of The Road Back To You, returns to The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast to talk about the Enneagram, emotional self-awareness, and how these insights transform the way we parent, love, and lead. Ian shares how understanding the “shadow side” of our personalities can unlock healthier relationships, save marriages, and most importantly, help us raise children with compassion rather than control. From hilarious stories about streaking in high school to powerful reflections on his mother's larger-than-life presence, Ian's wisdom is as entertaining as it is practical. Together we explore how to pay attention, set boundaries, and embrace the unique wiring of the kids right in front of us.

Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes 3-Step Framework That Forces Instant Focus August 22, 2025 | Episode 5165 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description Scott breaks down why everyone's obsessed with finding their "why" when they should be focused on getting crystal clear about their "what" first. He dives into Benjamin Hardy's brilliant scaling framework that forces you to eliminate distractions and zero in on what actually matters. This isn't about setting bigger goals—it's about getting so focused that everything else falls away. Scott shares the three elements that'll get you from confused to laser-focused, plus why most people get stuck trying to hang onto comfortable stuff that's holding them back. Featured Story Scott discovered Benjamin Hardy's book "The Science of Scaling" early and immediately saw how the principles apply to everything—not just business growth. He walks through a client example where a simple question about timeline compression ("Could you do it in one year instead of three?") completely shifted the person's thinking. The real magic happens when you realize that only certain actions will get you to big goals, and you have to be willing to give up the comfortable stuff that's keeping you stuck. Important Points Clarity about your "what" is more powerful than endlessly searching for your "why." The bigger and scarier your goal (while still doable), the more excited and focused you'll become. Raising your floor means eliminating everything below your standards, even things you've done forever. Memorable Quotes "If you can't clearly define what you want, what you want to do, where you want to go, all that stuff, you can't do it." "If you want average mundane, you can do just about anything and get it. But if you want something bigger, you got to get focused." "As soon as you start getting something better, you don't care about the old stuff." Scott's Three-Step Approach Set your frame ridiculously high—pick something that scares you a little but feels doable. Compress your timeline dramatically because urgency creates momentum and forces solutions. Raise your floor by eliminating anything that won't directly get you to your big goal.

Title: How You Can Win Trump's Tariff War Summary: The video hosted by Seth Bradley discusses the potential economic implications of President Trump's aggressive tariff policies and how they might present unique opportunities for wealth building in America amidst global economic upheaval. Bradley explains that tariffs—essentially taxes on imports—are economic tools that can protect domestic industries but also lead to broader economic challenges, particularly if not applied thoughtfully. He outlines the dynamics of Trump's tariff strategy, including a systematic and reciprocal approach to trade that could reshape relationships with various countries. Seth Bradley emphasizes that while the stock market is experiencing volatility and media outlets are reacting negatively, there are underlying opportunities that savvy investors should seize. He advocates for a focus on U.S. manufacturing and infrastructure, energy independence, and advancements in AI and automation as key areas for investment. The video posits that although immediate challenges like inflation and retaliation from trade partners are likely, the long-term outlook sees a potential reshoring of American industry, a reemergence of economic sovereignty, and ultimately an empowered U.S. economy.

Investment Strategies: Three key strategies are proposed for capitalizing on the unique economic landscape: investing in infrastructure, energy, and AI technologies. Vision for the Future: The potential long-term benefits of Trump's tariff policies are framed as a chance to reset trade imbalances and promote U.S. economic strength. Transcript: (Seth Bradley) Trump just broke the global economy and it might be the best thing to happen to America in decades. The stock market is crashing. China, Mexico, Canada, they're retaliating. The mainstream media is melting down. But the truth, if you understand what's really going on, this might be the single greatest opportunity of the decade to build wealth. So, let's break it down. No fluff, just facts. What's up, big brains? Welcome back to Raise the Bar, where I simplify complex money, legal, and political moves so you can make power plays in real time. I'm Seth Bradley, securities attorney, founder, and investor, and I quit a multiple six-f figureure big law job to pursue entrepreneurship and a life without limits. Today, I'm giving you the truth about tariffs, Trump's Liberation Day, and how to turn this global shakeup into your personal leverage point. All right, let's get it. Let's start out with the basics. So, what exactly is a tariff? At its core, a tariff is a tax on imports. That's right. It is a tax. When a foreign company sells goods into the US, the government slaps on a tax, usually a percentage of the total value. So, if a car from Germany costs 50k and there's a 10% tariff, then that car now costs $55,000 to bring into the US. So, who pays the tariff? Well, it's US importers, not the foreign shippers. And yes, it trickles down to you, the consumer, right here in the US. But tariffs aren't just taxes. They're economic weapons. And right now, Trump's using them with either surgical precision or as a nuclear bomb, depending on how you look at it. All right. To know where you're going to go, you have to know where you come from. Tariffs go way back in American history. It's not anything new. And in fact, before the IRS, tariffs were how we paid for the entire federal government, rather than through, let's say, income taxes, property, capital gains taxes, and all these other taxes that we all just know and love today. Tariffs haven't always resulted in good or bad for the US. It's a mixed bag. Alexander Hamilton pushed for tariffs to protect US industry. Success, yes. Abraham Lincoln used them to industrialize the North during the Civil War. Success, yes. But in the 1930s, the Smooth Holly Tariff Act backfired hard, triggering a trade war that deepened the Great Depression. So, not always successful. Tariffs can protect jobs and industries, but if they're too extreme or poorly timed, they can tank the economy. So, the key is strategy. And whether or not you believe in Trump, he's playing chess here, not checkers. Something you never used to associate with Trump is humble, but he has come a long way and is humble enough to at least have some of the greatest economic minds in his corner. So, they have a business-minded mentality, and that's exactly what this is. We need to stop treating the government like it's aing goodwill. It's not here to give you for free, and it's certainly not here to take what's yours. It's here to work for you, for what the people want, and decide through a democratic process what to do. Once upon a time, we literally became a country because we wanted independence, self-sufficiency, and freedom. We chose to break free from overt taxation, oppression, control, regulation, and government oversight. What's happening in 2025? In case you missed it, let's get caught up right now. Trump has declared Liberation Day and followed up with the most aggressive global tariff policy in modern history. A minimum of 10% tariffs on every import into the US, up to 60% tariffs on China. That changes every single day though. Reciprocal tariffs on all countries. If a country charges us 25%, we charge them 25% back. But that's not exactly true. And we'll get into more of that later. Canada and Mexico not exempt. This isn't just about China. It's about a full global reset. So the kicker is formula based. Trump's trade team built a publicly disclosed algorithm that adjusts tariff rates based on countries how countries treat the US exports. It's dynamic. is constantly changing. It updates monthly. This isn't random. It's calculated economic warfare. All right, next. Now that it's in effect, what's happening? Well, you're seeing it. Wall Street is panicking. S&P 500 is down 14% in the first two weeks. Tech stocks are plummeting. Elon Musk just posted on X that supply chain realignment is overdue and this pain is necessary. Mexico is negotiating. Canada's threatening retaliation, but also showing signs of blinking. China, they're digging the toes in, but there's exports that are suffering. You just won't hear all this stuff on CNBC, but you know, many of these global players are coming to the table. Tariffs are doing exactly what they're designed to do. Force negotiation, good or bad. Trump's move is forcing every country to rethink dependence on the US consumer. And not just that, it's forcing us to rethink how we depend on them. All right, let's set the record straight on a few of these common things that are floating around here. One, tariffs only hurt the other country. That's totally wrong. US businesses and consumers feel the sting, and we will. We are, at least at first. Sometimes you're going to hear this is just economic nationalism. But that's also wrong. This is about strategic leverage, not about isolating us. Third, it's inflationary in the short term. This is true. But if local supply chains relocize, prices stabilize and strengthen the domestic economy and we'll be good to go. But right now, we're feeling it. Next, tariffs can bring manufacturing back. This is true. Maybe, and we're already seeing US factories reannounced, reopenings in Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, places like that. And we've seen trillions of dollars of investment promises rolling in already. But if this steers us into a deep recession, companies won't have the resources or confidence to build. All right. So, what's my prediction? And some of these aren't even predictions cuz they're happening right now. Are risks, short-term inflation, price increases, stock market volatility, retaliation from trade partners. These things are already happening. So, they're probably just going to escalate for the near future. But the potential upsides, reshoring of manufacturing, massive supply chain independence, huge massive negotiation leverage for better and at the very least equal trade terms. Stronger US dollars, capital fleas, unstable markets abroad. Those are all massive positives, but they're not going to happen overnight. So, what's my prediction? short-term pain, long-term economic sovereignty, but we're entering a serious rebalancing period, and the US is reasserting its economic power. And while it hurts now, this could finally reset the broken trade game that's been bleeding our economy dry for decades and would eventually take us down. All right, so what do we do about it? We need to capitalize. So, what are the three smartest ways to capitalize on Trump's 2025 tariffs? There are lots of unknowns and unpredictability in business. But one thing is always true. When there's panic in the streets, there is massive opportunity somewhere and there's going to be wealth transfer. For those with cool heads, fortitude, and discipline, we can win. So, what am I doing? And what can you do to capitalize on all of this unpredictability? All right. Strategy number one, invest in US manufacturing and infrastructure. Tariffs equal a return to Americanmade. Full stop. Trump's reciprocal tariffs aren't just economic sanctions. They're a forced reshoring event here in the US. Global trade is breaking. Supply chains are rerouting. Countries like China, Mexico, and Canada, they're scrambling to adjust. And meanwhile, America is rebuilding. This is your moment to build wealth while the rest of the market panics. So, how do we actually do this? Play number one, invest passively in the U in industrial and infrastructure projects. Tap into private equity funds, syndications, or REIT alternatives that focus on, of course, manufacturing facilities, US-based supply chain logistics, cold storage, and warehouse assets, transportation, freight infrastructure, that stuff works, too. These funds are just pouring into the reshoring initiatives, not just from the government, but from Fortune 500 companies rethinking their risk exposure. Play number two for my capital raisers out there. Raise capital for experienced sponsors in the same space. If you're not the operator, but you've got a network, become a capital aggregator. Use SPVS or fund of funds models like TriVest to compliantly pull investor capital into high quality US industrial and infrastructure deals. Bring your network along. Bring limited partners into deals with better terms, higher leverage, and strategic upside. Focus on experienced sponsors. Of course, do your due diligence. Make sure they have a track record in industrial real estate or again critical infrastructure. All right, play number three. If you have the resources, buy directly. Also got to have the knowhow, right? Focus on manufacturing assets, warehouses near growing ports, logistics hubs, things like that. Make sure you have a boots on the ground partner if it's not you in that local market. Think markets like Columbus, Kansas City. These cities are turning into many powerhouses as global shipping patterns shift inland. Bonus play, buy dirt where the roads are going. Right? So, if you're into residential and you don't know anything about industrial and you're not comfortable with it, think about residential and mixed juice land near inland ports, new highways, industrial corridors, growth zones, things like that. These plays won't necessarily cash flow day one, but they will appreciate like crazy over the next 3 to 5 years as that infrastructure is finally built out. Strategy number two, energy independence investing. If manufacturing is the body, energy is the blood, where are you going to power this thing from? Trump's tariffs are slamming foreign oil and renewables equipment. And that gives domestic US producers, especially in oil and gas and renewables such as batteries, an unmatched advantage. And with the world watching this tariff war unfold, there's one thing everyone agrees on. Energy is national security right now. So what do you do? Play number one, invest passively, of course, in US energy assets, oil and gas royalties, own a slice of production without the drilling risk. You have to dig deep into those documents and see what you're getting yourself into. There's a lot of different oil and gas funds that are structured in different ways and have different tax incentives versus cash flow. So, make sure you dig deep into that. Also look at battery manufacturers like Stack Rack Battery, especially US-based ones, solar developers, those leveraging domestic supply chains. Look for funds and startups focused on energy independence, not just ESG headlines. Real world example, I had mentioned StackRrack battery. I co-founded StackRrack, a US-based modular battery company. And we're not just producing batteries, we're part of the national grid modernized push. Our battery systems are designed, they're assembled, and they're shipped right here in the US. We're ULcertified, scalable, and recession resistant. And tariffs just gave us a built-in mode. This is exactly what happens when policy meets opportunity. You just have to open your eyes and find those right opportunities. And a bonus here, tax credit tailwinds. The US is still offering massive tax credits under the Inflation Reduction Act, for now at least. Pair that with import based price increases and you've got a once in a decade profit window. And building on that, what's your capital aggregator play? If you don't want to operate, partner with fund managers or sponsors deploying capital into these sectors, be the legal, the capital raising or the strategic partner in high demand governmentbacked tariff fueled energy projects. My law firm, Raise Law, can help you build any capital raising structure you can imagine. So feel free to reach out. All right, strategy number three, back or build AIdriven alternatives to offshore labor. Tariffs don't just hit goods, they hit services, too. Let me explain. Think about it. If China, Mexico, or Canada are now more expensive to work with because of reciprocal tariffs, that raises the cost of offshore labor. So, enter what's happening right now. AI, automation, US-based software. This is your moment to kill the middleman. Reduce labor cost and automate what is already going to be offshored. This is your moment to kill the middleman. Reduce labor cost and automate what was once offshored in different countries. So here we go. Play number one. Build or invest in AI tools that replace outsource labor. Think about jobs like customer service, document review and data entry, uh logistics coordination, manufacturing floor labor, things like that. It's not sci-fi. The LLMs and the manufacturing robotics are ready today and the opportunity is right now. All right, so step-by-step action plan. Identify high friction outsource tasks that just got more expensive. Right. Next, what's the capital aggregator play? partner with early stage AI founders or companies. Use your network expertise or capital raising jobs to make strategic investments or even try to leverage an advisory equity position or a role in a startup in these sectors. I've done it and feel free to reach out and I can tell you more about how I've done it. So, pro tip though, don't just invest in AI for the sake of it. Invest in AI that displaces foreign labor. That's where the pressure is. That's where the real value will be. This is the moment most people will fear. We're in it right now and a few smart ones will capitalize. Tariffs are just the first shot in a major larger realignment. And if you're able to stay calm, not get caught up in all the political nonsense. This is a time where real wealth changes hands. Keep your mind clear, keep your eyes open, and if this breakdown helped you see the game clearer, smash that subscribe button, drop a comment with your take on Trump's global economic strategy, and let me know, are you playing offense or defense? Keep your head in the game. Raise the bar, baby. Until next time, enjoy the journey.
