Digital products, PDF businesses, and growing a podcast all sound simple until you actually try to execute.
Both PDFs got built. Neither got launched. And the reasons were different. One came down to time and prioritization. The other came down to uncertainty around Facebook ads, funnels, landing pages, and how to actually sell a low ticket product.

What they looked at, what metrics actually matter, what they pay attention to, and what most people completely misunderstand about growing a show.
Ben and Jon walk through what got done, what didn’t, and what actually moves the needle when you’re trying to build something new.
Topics covered:
Most people don’t fail because the idea is bad. They fail because they never actually ship.
