The #1 reason we finally started to get momentum


Last week we hosted our first AI summit, the AI Content Mastery Summit.

We had 24 amazing speakers. Thousands of attendees signed up and watched the sessions.

I also spoke on 5 live Q&A's with my co-host Simone Lea.

Overall it was a great week that I believe will be a turning point for the brand.

And there's 1 reason why it was a success...

Before I get to that, if you missed any of the summit... don't worry.

We'll be releasing it on Youtube over the next 3 months.

In fact, check out our new BigMoves AI Clips channel to get access to bite-size snippets of each talk.

Perfect for those wanting to save time.

Now the #1 reason why we started to gain momentum is because of a lesson I learned about 6 years ago.

And still ignored it over the past 2 years.

The lesson is this:

"If you're business is not growing as fast as you want it to it's because you're not spending 80% of your time on marketing and sales"

I knew this already.

My last business grew quickly because we focused on that rule.

But the last 2 years I admit that I got side-tracked by AI so much and I spent most of my time building things.

Instead of marketing things...

I'm willing to bet that a large part of my audience (maybe you) could be getting distracted too.

So this is your reminder.

Focus on growth and you'll begin to grow.

For us, focusing on growth meant:

  • High quality content (summit interviews)
  • Repurposing that content (new clips channel + YouTube + carousels + reels are in the pipeline)
  • Running ads on Meta (still the highest performing platform for advertising)

This is how we'll continue to see massive growth moving forward.

Hope this helps!

Something changed in the last month. Clients are saying yes to custom AI apps faster and easier than ever. No long back and forth. No three weeks of “let me think about it.” They see what’s possible and they say yes. Combine that with the leap in AI capability over the last month and I’ll just say it. Everyone should be building their own custom apps right now. Here’s what I’ve built in the last month. 1. A YouTube system that runs the entire pipeline. It auto uploads the thumbnails and video...

I’ve spent most of the last week testing the new Claude Code Projects. Not the old version where you dump a bunch of files into a folder and start separate chats. The new version connects to your GitHub repo, takes what you want to build, then acts as the orchestrator for the entire thing. It decides what needs to be done. Splits the work into separate threads. Then each thread builds its part and opens its own PR in GitHub. In theory, this is exactly what I want. I tell it what to build once...

I rebuilt my website last week. Start to finish in about 40 minutes. I didn’t create a PRD, feature specs or really have a plan. I talked at it for 10 minutes and let it go. And that is the exact opposite of how I build everything else. Now here’s the thing… I’ve built websites and apps for clients a dozen different ways over the last few months. Whatever the YouTubers were pushing that month. Whatever “best practices” Claude or Codex handed me when I asked for them. What I’ve landed on is...
