Crazed lunatic tries to break into my house

Bit of context:

After my long copywriting sessions, I often check my inbox for any replies to my emails.

The other day, I did exactly that.

But this time wasn't the usual “check my replies and reply back” spiel that usually takes place.

This time…

I find something rather… unsettling

Like most days, I see that someone has replied to my latest email. This time it was just 2 minutes ago.

At first, I felt delighted.

I’m always happy when someone takes time out of their day to reply :).

But upon closer inspection, that delight swiftly makes place for pure, animalistic… 

TERROR!

This email was sent by an anonymous email address. (Apple has this feature where you can hide your real email address and have it replaced by some weird gibberish.)

This was one of those.

But that in and of itself wouldn’t have been concerning…

The concerning thing was the actual content of the reply:

“I'm stood outside your house.
Open up now you dick.”

Even more disturbing?

It’s written in German (and I live in Germany 😱).

My heart sinks into my pants.

What?? Is there actually someone at my door?”

And that's when I hear it:

My freaking doorbell
is ringing!

I usually put on my “relaxed Jazz” playlist when I'm writing so I’ve probably missed previous rings.

The doorbell rings again.

I run downstairs to check. And to my dismay…

I see the silhouette of a man close to 2 meters tall through the tinted window of my door.

“Oh God!!! I shouldn’t have made fun of that viral Steve Jobs thread (that made $0 and attracted a bunch of low-IQ idiot followers) last week. 😭

I run back upstairs and unlock my phone. 

…Getting ready to ring up the nearest police station.

And what I see makes my heart sink into my pants even deeper…

But not because it's terrifying – like a crazed lunatic trying to break into my house – but because…

It's so freaking hilarious that
I break down LAUGHING!!

Upon typing my pincode into my phone, I’m greeted with 10+ notifications of missed calls and Whatsapp messages… by my FRIEND.

And that's when I realize…

This is not some insane psycho serial killer trying to cannibalize me… 

This is my friend who came to
return a book that I lent him.

🤦

Because I had answered NONE of his 10+ calls and messages, he took one last desperate attempt of trying to reach me via email. 😂

What a plot twist.

All because of some Jazz music and my phone notifications being on silent 24/7. 😅

But what can I say…

While it might not make me the most available person in the world, this habit of “detaching” from the interwebs allows me to enter deep states of flow.

And that's exactly what I was doing before this… slightly unsettling… incident.

I was writing some copy.

See, I take my work very seriously. That's part of the reason why I offer a 30-day money-back guarantee. I'm so confident and obsessed with delivering outstanding results that I’m willing to put my money on the line.

But this only works because when I write a piece of copy…

I'm in the freaking zone baby.

It's what I enjoy doing most.

However, I realize that not everyone is wired like me.

Some people… for some inexplicable reason… don't like writing copy. (Weird, right?)

And that's exactly who I team up with in my DFY program.

I partner up with those who are too busy, too stressed, or simply don't want to handle all their business’s organic marketing.

If you're starting to resent your business because you’re always busy putting out fires… consumed by the urgent… but never finding time for the important things that you actually enjoy

Let me change that for you.

I’ve developed a system that gets you a consistent stream of organic leads so you can get back to what matters most.

See, the email you’ve just read is a great analogy for how this system works.

  1. I build trust with your audience through your social media content (ok… maybe I won’t tell ‘creepypasta’ style stories like this).
  2. I establish your authority by highlighting the benefits of your product, positioning you as an expert, and providing value.
  3. We ‘cash in’ on that trust by setting up a funnel or lead-flow system that teases out, captures, and nurtures all the leads we’ve attracted. (This is the phase you’re in right now *wink wink*)
  4. All that’s left to do now… direct those leads to a sales page or a sales call to turn them into COUSTOMERSSS!

I know it’s simple.

But it’s also brutally effective.

The best part? You don’t have to lift a finger.

I will set up this entire system for you while you lean back and work on the things you find intrinsically meaningful and that will lead you closer to the lifestyle you desire.

(And as I said… I do offer a 30-day money-back guarantee 😉)

Anyways…

If you own a 6-figure per year SaaS or coaching biz and you want the full details… reply with “DFY” and we’ll chat.

Genuinely here to help you.

Happy Halloween and stay creepy,

Tim <3
