Chief Legal at most mid size companies and above make bank! But they are 9-5 wagies who are ngmi, totally unviable career.

Don't go to law school just make ads for giftcards instead!

Making $600k in compliance is impressive, but believable

Its not the most obvious thing, but its extremely high leverage

Most people focus on Sales this, Marketing that

But Big players already have that stuff figured out

And 99% of the time, these people care deeply about compliance because they got burnt very badly on the way up

“But aren’t sales and marketing high value skills too?”

Yes, bc they generate revenue, but they’re also fairly replaceable

And that’s because EVERY business generates revenue, that’s literally the definition of a business

But if you own an actually big company, one little mistake in compliance can cost you tens of thousands of dollars

And I’ll give you an example

When I was a loan officer my assistant sent out a locked loan estimate with a 1% VA funding fee instead of 2.3%

Those 2 wrong numbers on a piece of paper cost me $4k (1.3% on a $300k loan)

Don’t even get me started on TCPA, call one number on the DNC list that reports you, BOOM -$5k

Call 1000 numbers on the DNC list and now you’re out 5 mil

That’s why there is a lot of money in making the things compliant, the consequences can be massive

There was a case here in FL where some guys were facing a RICO for noncompliant ads last year.

And yet, you see absolute idiots on here openly talking about blackhat stuff

At that point you’re just publicly admitting you’re broke

Nobody with anything to lose would be messing with blackhat stuff

Would they do greyhat tho? Of course

Because high level people know what rules they can break, that’s usually how they got to where they’re at

And they have experts who tell them where to toe the line

That’s why there are people like this who make $600k in compliance

The real value isn’t them telling you what you can’t do

It’s actually them telling you what you CAN do, without crossing the line in the sand

@TylerDay38 @internetquant The pie is still huge, its just unrealized. The total TAM for calls in theory should be as large as leads if not larger, but like everything affs find a way to ruin it...

MRR guys can learn a lot from crunch fitness/planet fitness.

You literally feel like a pig when you go to cancel it after not using it for 3 months.

So rather than trying to scam someone's CC, instead figure out a way to make them feel horribly guilty.

@dustin92k yes I am in poverty you must be right

I used to be very skeptical about consulting, especially in ecomm / affiliate.

"If you are making so much money why do you need to do consulting"

or

"I'm already succesful I dont need this"

1) Some people actually enjoy what they do and like talking to other people who are in the same industry...

BUT they don't just want to do it for free, and tacking on a price means you are serious.

2) There is a reason billion $/year companies hire consultants - outside perspective. 100% of people can benefit on outside perspectives and new ideas from other industry experts.

If you've been doing something one way for 5 years chances are you are stuck in your ways and will benefit directly or indirectly from new ideas.

Our conversation was incredibly valuable and I cannot recommend it enough.

If you are serious about running a business instead of just jerking off to rev screenshots and being on the hampster wheel your whole life... you should book some time.

@dustin92k this mentality is why people like me are rich and you are poor!

Was talking to my dad about one of his former businesses.

Turns out he was getting all of his customers with inbound calls from radio ads on Howard Stern. This was 30 years ago.

"If they were calling in, they wanted it bad and we closed 90, maybe 95%"

Who else loading up Venezuela takeover ads rn?

@shippedlate I just dont know a single ad account actually scaling the AI stuff

Its all either real UGC or b-roll

[negative zero @notprofitable]

I keep seeing posts about AI UGC videos of AI creators holding products.

Im not a boomer and I want to adopt new tech, but is anyone actually scaling with full AI videos. If you exclude the little talking head videos with b-roll, I can't think of anyone doing full ads with heygen and veo or whatever else is popular atm

If I have budget for UGC why would I not just use that?

[negative zero @notprofitable]

Plus on my organic pages anytime we use AI we get trashed in the comments complaining about it...
