"When I started @MoveVirtual I wrote down few things that I would never do. - I will not work 2X to make the same amount of money. Im happy making $15000 from [--] clients over [--] clients. - I would never hire Part time VAs. As that would ad extra layer of micromanaging people which I hate doing due to my own personal experiences. - I will never assign 2-3 clients to a VA. VA will only work for one client and thats my promise from day one. - I will not assign a VA just to add more revenue or MRR. If a VA doesnt meet my requirements or even the clients requirements I will refund the full amount"

""Process of elimination" A quick guide on how I design through a continuous process of elimination. This is the method I have used at Netflix & FB to design experiences that convert while being unique & memorable. π For this exercise we will be using by @nico_jeannen. The existing landing page already does the job of clearly explaining the value prop but how can we further simplify it β¨ Before we eliminate stuff let's pick "one" value prop from the landing page that clearly highlights what "TalkNotes" does. In this case it would be the interactive "audio recording" that instantly delivers. β"
