One was a creative task and another was a problem-solving task, which required analysis of data, something that obviously BCG consultants do a lot of with their customers and the businesses that they're working with. So, what were the results? Well, they were quite impressive to be honest. Every single knowledge worker that took part saw a benefit from using AI in that particular test. The high performers amongst the BCG staff saw a 17% improvement, which is huge. It's very rare that you get a 17% improvement in anything when it comes to knowledge work. So, showing this productivity improvement was quite a good result. But more importantly, perhaps, is that lower performers, this is folks who perhaps don't have the same amount of experience, maybe new in role, maybe younger folks perhaps, they saw a 43% improvement when they were using generative AI. They also found that when they used AI for tasks that it's really good at, things like writing and analysing data and creativity and that sort of thing, the workers who use the AI saw significant benefits in their productivity and the quality and the speed. This is very unusual, these sorts of productivity improvements don't come along very often, perhaps once in a generation really. The workers also completed about 12% more tasks and they tended to finish 25% quicker, so one quarter quicker than when they were working without the AI. So, I think it's pretty clear from that study that there are definitely benefits there to be had by using generative AI. But these were knowledge workers, so the consultants working for BCG. What about software developers, right? Are they any different? Should they be different? Well, there's another study, so McKinsey ran a controlled study. Smaller group size for this one, there were 40 developers took part, but they had varying experiences and they were split into two groups. One group had access to two generative AI tools. One was a kind of a general purpose chat bot, like a chat GBT-like tool. The second was something more code specific, so something that's been pre-trained on code, maybe something like a co-pilot, that sort of tool, right? Group B, the control group, they didn't have access to any AI technology whatsoever, so they were just doing the tasks as they would normally do them before AI came along. The tasks themselves were code generation, refactoring documentation, so pretty much bog standard bread and butter things for developers to be doing. So, what happened? Well, again, the results were pretty awesome to be honest. Developers with access to the AI tools, they saw a 20% to 50% speed increase. They were faster on average by 20% to 50% depending on the task. Same story with finishing tasks quicker. They were finishing tasks 25% to 30% faster. They were much more likely to finish on time, so they were 25% to 30% more likely to finish on time when they were working on a task. They also noted in that paper that they saw tremendous gains in four particular areas. So, one was expediting manual and repetitive work. Another was jump-starting the first draft of code. Third was accelerating updates to existing code, perhaps things like modernisation, for example, which is obviously a hot topic. And fourth, it was increasing developers' ability to tackle new challenges. So perhaps working on less usual tasks than they would normally get. Maybe, for example, a Java developer getting a Python task or something like that. So anything that allows them to sort of migrate and increase their knowledge base tended to make them more useful and they saw lots and lots of gains in these areas. So, what can we learn from these studies? Well, number one, AI makes us more productive. It doesn't matter if you're a knowledge worker or a developer, it's the same result. There are clear advantages to using AI in those knowledge-based tasks, knowledge-heavy tasks, things like coding. Two, developers should consider using generative AI, but perhaps it's best to follow the McKinsey example of using two. You should perhaps have something that helps you with code, something that's available in your IDE, but it's also really useful to have something that helps you with all the times when you're not inside your IDE. Sometimes having access to chatbots, things like a chat GPT or something like that is really, really useful for helping with all those ancillary tasks that perhaps you don't use your IDE for, but they can still make you more productive in those areas. And I'll give you some examples a little bit later of some ideas of where you could apply that thinking. And also, it's not just developers who benefit, right? There's also a benefit for product managers. Product managers, using AI, they can perhaps increase their doorometrics, for example, fix issues faster, improve quality. Perhaps it's around testing and documentation. You could use AI to help you increase your code coverage, get fewer defects, for example, and have fewer regressions as a result. Perhaps it's about planning and productivity generally. So maybe you can use AI to analyse data to help you make better decisions around resourcing and how to use your resources more efficiently. Or perhaps it's embedding AI features in products to help customers use them more easily or to get more from them than they currently do. And finally, of course, developer experience. Using AI in this way by, you know, helping and supporting developers in their knowledge tasks, you can really reduce stress levels. You can limit burnout, you can increase knowledge, share it more widely amongst team members, inexperienced and experienced alike. They can all benefit. McKinsey found that in their study, developers reported being two times happier and entered into a flow state much faster than they did when they weren't using generative AI. So lots of good reasons there why you should take generative AI seriously and think about it for your development teams. But it's not all plain sailing. There are some risks as well. You should definitely think carefully before using online generative AIs, for example. This is what Gartner said. The use of online large language models, such as chatGbt, Googlebot, et cetera, requires a number of trade-offs that many organisations will find unacceptable. For example, privacy is a problem. Samsung found this when their employees started to use chatGbt. They accidentally leaked information about upcoming chip manufacturing techniques because chatGbt does not forget the prompts that you give it. And it can reuse those prompts in its memory and start to share those more widely. So in this particular case, Samsung were a little bit embarrassed by that and immediately stopped using chatGbt for the work that they were doing internally. Sustainability is a problem. There's data centres all over the world right now wracking lots and lots of Nvidia graphics cards and various other stuff and trying to find all the power to run them and the cooling to run them is causing sustainability issues. Here's a story from the US where there was a 34% spike in water consumption from a Microsoft data centre all down to the use of generative AI and the need for extra cooling and stuff. Then, of course, you've got inaccuracy. When McKinsey did a state of AI report, they said that the number one thing that adopters of AI reported back to them was the biggest concern, was inaccuracy. AI can hallucinate and knowing when it's hallucinating is a challenge. If you're not on top of that challenge, it can catch you out. Many organisations don't necessarily know how to cope with that. You should think about that. Also, of course, licensing and copyright. Obvious issues with that. You can't copyright something in the US that's been generated by AI and the large language models themselves may have been trained on information that you don't know exactly where it came from. I wanted to show you what I've been doing to experiment with AI safely in backstage. I introduce you to what I've been working on here, which is adding a private, secure local AI to backstage. I think it's a great place to start when you're thinking about your AI productivity journey for developers. I've put together this kind of proof of concept, really. I call it the backchart plug-in. You can grab it if you use that QR code there. Basically, this plug-in just allows you to start to get a feel for what it might be like if you had generative AI features inside of backstage. Developers, first and foremost, didn't have to leave backstage in order to be more productive, which I think is rather important. What is it? It's open source. It's based on an awful lot of open source tools. It's embarrassingly simple, so please don't judge me. There's a lot of open source tools in the background, but it's basically bringing AI locally, and you can run it from anywhere, and you can introduce that into your backstage GUI very, very simply. How's it architected? Well, it looks something like this. You have the plug-in itself, and then currently you have a number of choices of open source tools, and you can use to hook into that plug-in, which will allow you to then expose AI-like features inside of backstage. That's how it is today. It's not how I want it to be. I've got some ideas about what the roadmap should be for this tool, but I need help. If you're a developer out there and you want to help bring generative AI to backstage, then you should definitely get in touch because I could use your support and would really appreciate it. So, should we have a look? We're going to ask BackChat a question now, so bear with me a second while I try and get it onto the screen for you. So, let me slide this over... Slide this over there. Here we are. Okay. Nearly there. Sorry, folks. I find myself a bit awkward. Here we go. So here we have BackChat, right? As you can see, I've integrated it inside of backstage and I'm going to ask it a question. Down here is my question box. I click in there and post that in there. I'm going to ask it. My Kubernetes pod is stuck. It's in a crash loop back off. How can I get the logs be concise? Very important if you're in a rush at two in the morning. So off it goes and it's going to have a look at that question. What I should explain while it's doing this is all running locally on this laptop. So here I've just got a generation 12 Intel core processor. I don't have a GPU. I've got about 32 gigs of RAM but it's only using about maybe 21% of that at the moment so it's not using very much. And it's responding to me using the Mistral 7B large language model. As you can see, hopefully, it's coming up with a reasonable response, right? So there we go. Describe the pod. Have a look at the events. That sounds pretty plausible. And then find the logs and then see if you can figure out what's going wrong, right? So it kind of works. Hope you'll agree. So now you've seen it, let me try and explain a few places where I think you might be able to use it to get some additional benefit for you and your developers. So here we go. Use cases. Where could you use this? Well, it's not just for developers, remember. It's for anybody who's got access to backstage. So if that's your product managers, if it's your database people, if it's your infrastructure people, they can all come together. They can all use it in the same spot. And what could you use it for? Well, how about databases? Help you work with databases generally. Perhaps not an area of expertise. There are so many to choose from, you know, graph databases or whether it's SQL databases or whatever. It could help by answering all sorts of different questions about those. Operations. You've just seen me use it for a sort of an operation like example where we've asked it to help us with Kubernetes, for example. So lots of different places you could use this. Testing as well. We've already talked about the ability to maybe write tests and improve code coverage. Documentation. I've been to lots and lots of clients all over the world and they always seem to have the same issue when it comes to documentation. I think David mentioned it earlier as well. You know, getting tech docs off the ground is difficult. Well, it doesn't have to be. Maybe your generative AI could help you ease some of that pain and to help you to create better documentation. Here's some more. What about ideation? Coming up with ideas in the first place. Evaluating ideas, suggesting alternatives. You can do all of that. Research. You can ask AI to do all kinds of weird and wonderful things like pretending to be a particular user style or a user type and then asking it to answer questions in their voice and it can help you with that. It can also help you with teamwork, right? 360-degree feedback. I know that when I give feedback sometimes I'm a little blunt. I'm from the UK so, you know, forgive me. I perhaps look on the more pessimistic side and the optimistic side. Having something like AI help me with feedback and soften it and things is a really useful tool. It proves that it's not just perhaps for code. It's also for all the other things that you do as part of a team. Lastly there, unfamiliar code. I'm a Java developer by trade but it would be nice to know a little bit more Python. I'll be able to help out in Python. Why not? Now I've talked about that. Let's have a look at some prompting hints and tips to make you all leave this auditorium as an AI boss. Someone who can talk to an AI and have it do amazing things for you. So first of all, I wanted to encourage folks to think about using a very simple prompt structure. This one's called role, situation and task. So tell the AI the role that it's performing. Tell it the situation in which it's being used. Give it a very clear directive in terms of a task. Here I've got an example down the bottom there.  So bring your expert knowledge of SQL and manage this fleet of vehicles in a database for me. So give me some idea what that database should look like. And off it goes and it creates what you want it to do. So it doesn't have to be a database designer, could be an operator, could be anyone. Next, think about chain of thought prompting. This is where you encourage the AI to take a breath, think step by step, work through the problem slowly and by introducing these sorts of hints into your prompts you'd be very surprised at how successful that is at making the AI become more accurate. Remember we said inaccuracy was one of the problems. So using chain of thought prompting can help it become more accurate. So in this particular example create a Java doc. Here's the method, go and write it for me but think carefully and check your answer. So I'm hoping this is going to get the AI to sort of look at the code that's in the method and sort of actually try and document it properly. Or try these. I like to call these show me and tell me. The first one over on the left there that's show me what you got basically it's like saying to the AI I don't really care how you do it, just show me what you've got. So it would be include things like asking the AI to show rather than tell sorry, you, showing the AI rather than telling it what it needs to do. So for example I've included an idea of summarising a paragraph summarises paragraph use a similar engaging style it will write prompt in the same sort of style. Next tell me, so this is more like tell me how to succeed. This is where you give in your prompt some ideas to the AI about where it should how it can be successful. Tell the AI this is what a good answer looks like. Don't repeat yourself. Make sure that it's done in your own words. Make sure that it's concise etc. And few shot is another one that you can do. Repetitive tasks. We talked about repetitive tasks earlier. Few shot is a way to set up some initial prompting that the AI will then remember and then we'll use in later prompting. So it's great if you've got the same task to repeat over and over you can prompt the AI to do that. So that's it. Let's have a look at some key takeaways. Here's some. First of all point number one generative AI makes you better. Doesn't really matter who you are or what you're working on, it makes you better. So you should embrace it. You should use it you should try it. You should see how you can incorporate it into what you do. Secondly, think about the things that Jenny AI can really do well and can accelerate for you. So anything that includes creativity for example or analysing data is a good place to start. And think about what you're going to do in the future. Are you going to integrate AI with your people and processes?  Or are you going to integrate AI into your products and services? And what are you going to do when AI is everywhere? Like when AI is in your pocket or in your car or in your fridge, I don't know. All these are the places where you might find AI in the future. What are you going to do when it becomes an AI centric world? So that's it. Thanks very much for listening. I really appreciate your patients especially with the screens and stuff. I hope you found that interesting. Here's a few links, places where you can get more information. You can have a look at back chat and there's also some tech docs for it and a software catalogue for it and all sorts of other things. So please take a look and if you've got any questions, I'll take them. Thanks so much Ben. Did I run over? We have any questions? Oh, there we go. We have some takers. Thank you very much for the presentation. In my org, the generative AI initiative has primarily been Slack based. So how given that like Slack already provides a pretty good AI chat how do I resolve that and I guess integrate generative AI in backstage in a way that doesn't conflict with that Slack? Yeah, it's an interesting challenge, isn't it? Who provides that? Is it from Slack? So Slack have the large language model and they host it for you? I don't know for sure but I think it's a combination of existing open source tools with our own internal team curating it for our internal experience. I think it's worth looking into how is it delivered so that you can understand it more and then figure out, okay, is there a way that I can integrate this easily, for example? So if there's a large language model behind that, maybe an open source large language model, perhaps it's been trained, perhaps it hasn't, retrained if you like. You might be able to use exactly the same model in these tools that I've shown you today. So something like local AI or text web gen AI. They can both use hundreds of different large language models from lots of different providers. So you might be able to use exactly the same model but deliver it in a very similar way. It comes down to the details, unfortunately. We'd have to say it depends on how you've done it and how it works at the moment. Awesome, and as a follow-up, do you have a road map for the back chat plugin? Yes, so what I'd really like to do is rather than rely on open source GUIs to actually create a true backstage plugin that does basically a similar sort of, you know, has a similar feature level to some of those other open source tools that properly integrates within backstage and then maybe take the model further. So can we start to get information from backstage, retrain the model, and have that exposed also to developers so that they can do things like, you know, in my software catalogue, I want to ask you a question about this thing and to have the AI know about the stuff that's in the catalogue, for example. Thank you. So come and help if you want to. Hey Ben, it was a nice talk. I really enjoyed this. You already answered my question with training the AI model with backstage information. So this is something I'm really looking forward and if you already worked a little bit around this to say, is it possible or will it be possible? Oh, it's almost certainly possible. So another great open source project you should perhaps think about if you're interested in retraining is to have a look at FlowWise. FlowWise allows you to take, for example, a body of PDF documentation and have that embedded into an embeddings database that you then use alongside your AI so that when you ask a question it can also use those fresh embeddings to answer that question for you. So, yeah, FlowWise is definitely worth checking out because it gives you a really nice easy way to start to get comfortable with how all those different mechanisms work. It might not be the supply chain that you end up with but in terms of getting started and understanding what's going on I'd say it's the perfect place to start. Awesome. Yeah, sorry, we have one more over here. Oh, okay. Thanks, thanks for the great talk. One question I have is you were talking about hallucination, right? Yes. You have any thoughts on how to mitigate that through this plugin or that's out of scope for this plugin? Hallucination is always going to be a factor of AI. It doesn't really seem to matter who's you use, whether it's the most powerful tools out there, the GPTs of the world or the clods or whatever or just an open source large language model. There's hallucination everywhere and it's down to the fact that the way that the large language model is created means that it's very unpredictable in terms of what sort of answer you will ultimately get to any one question. It's non-determinative, you can't always get the same answer to the same question. So knowing when an AI is hallucinating is one of the key skills right now for any knowledge worker or developer or anyone who's using AI in their daily work. It's knowing when it's giving you results that are just not accurate. But do you have any thoughts of you know you have some ideas you said, right? Are you also having any thoughts along these lines or that's totally out of scope? No, I'm watching what other people think about that and I'm hoping that the larger, broader community of large language folks will ultimately get a handle on that. But I've been following this for a while now and I can't say I've ever heard of particularly good answers around that. It's the same with deleting or making memories disappear from a large language model. Even the most today methods fail at the moment to take care successfully of deleting information from a large language model. So for things like GDPR it's a bit of a nightmare because once it's in there it's difficult to get it out. Right, thank you. That's all the time we had. Thank you so much for all the questions.


Polygenic traits. Polygenic. Most of the traits in you are polygenic traits. Poly, many, genetic genes. Many genes contribute to one trait. One example of this is eye color. And I know I always use the blue eye, brown eye, allele example, which I hope I always remember to say is totally not true. But in fact, at this stage in the game, my knowledge is that there are three genes that contribute to eye color, which is how you end up with a varying shade, is why none of our eye color analyses ever work out, because it's not just simple Mendelian genetics, one gene on one chromosome creating this particular phenotype. Three different genes that are interacting to create this phenotype. Now, we're about to get into some situations where it really does start getting pretty messy. Right now, I can look at you in the eye and say, yeah, three genes, code for eye color. But by the end of this, hopefully you realize that that's sometimes and sometimes not so much. All right. So polygenic traits, one trait, multiple genes contributing to that. Another example of a polygenic trait is height. There are multiple genes that are contributing to this phenotype. Often with polygenic traits, you end up with a sort of bell curve of diversity, of possible different phenotypes, as opposed to either you are, say, a tongue roller, or you are not a tongue roller. Either you have blue eyes or you don't have blue eyes. Like, knowing, of course, the blue-eyed example is completely false. So, some phenotypes are yes or no. Pink, white flowers versus purple flowers in our pea plants. That's an example of something that's really straightforward and simple. But if we had this range, kind of a bell curve example, then we would be more likely to think, oh, I bet there's multiple genes that are contributing to this. Okay. The next one is awesome. Let's try it back to talk about pleotropy.


So this is your skin right now and we're here with a lily cover and hi, so who are you? Yeah I'm CEO and founder of the lily cover. So this is the little lily cover right here? Yeah, this is beauty device. This side has skin analyze, this side has plasma massage for skin regeneration. So it's got two different, it's got a camera and a sensor? Camera and sensor. Both on the same side? Yeah. So what happens when you check your skin?  And what does it do? Yeah, we're using image processing. So it's checking different parts of your skin? Yeah, five spot. Oh you're doing all the different parts that it tells you to do? This image is through our algorithm, you can track your skin status and then... So what do you see the results? Yeah okay, let me see you. It is a sensor to your oil and moisture balance on your skin. So there's oil and moisture balance? Yeah right. And you have to answer? Answer what? Answer for your skin status. Are you just connecting their back? Yeah. You're saying here that it's a total beauty solution? Yeah. Skin care management, you can use anywhere and anytime. Immediate personal skill monitoring analysis and therapy. So when you do skin care, you want to monitor, analyze and then you choose what cream to put on? Yeah, this is our own brand. So based on your skin status, we can recommend you just to wear cosmetic. So you have some special thing in here? Yeah. Skin functional. Clinic balance mask? Yeah. And this is another one? Yeah. Wrinkle care? Yeah, this one. And this is the only for you package? Yeah right. But it also works with other skin care products or? This is my skin status. Then you can check your skin status in our application and our application provide five languages and then we provide wear proper. So you need to get this? Yeah right. You need to put it on? Yeah. And then how long time it takes to put a skin? Ten minutes. Ten minutes? Yeah. And then it will be fixed or I mean I'll compare some what it recommends. And then what does it say? Here, what is this? Yeah, this is oil moisture balance and sensitivity. This is pigmentation, this is wrinkle and the flushing and the pore. Nice. Is this for sale already? Yeah already. We're just starting to sell our product from March in Korea and Japan and Singapore and Vietnam. Vietnam? Yeah. Four countries so far? Four countries. So now because you are here the China Sourcing Fair will be 40? Yeah. Right? Maybe. Europe or USA? Yeah, we want to. All right. And selling many in Korea? Yes. All right. Nice. And what's next? What's next? You have some next ideas also? Yeah. We will extend to the produce the personalized cosmetic in city through Smart Factory. Smart Factory? Yes. Something like a vending machine. Yeah, based on your skin type you can order your serum and lotion and foundation in city. Because it's very complicated I guess. I didn't try it but it's probably very complicated to buy the right skincare products for the right person. Yeah. You will make everything automatic. Right. You should be shipping over the internet right? Yes. So by the app you just click ship me what I need. Yeah. And this is accurate? Accurate. We already gathered 100,000 skin types in US and Korea and Vietnam so our AI algorithms accuracy is over 98.5%. So you do the AI on the skin? Yeah. Right. Of all the skin types? Yeah. Skin pigments and what about this part here? What does this do? Here? This one then here? Yeah. Using plasma technology. Plasma affects the skin regeneration and sterilization on your skin. Plasma regeneration steroids? Right. All this stuff. Yeah. We provide three modes of plasma massage. Massage? Yeah massage. So it's actually going to do what? Plasma, it is hard to feel the plasma feeling but we already have our certification on safety and efficacy of plasma. And this part here? This part is skin diagnosis, camera, sensor. This part is plasma massage. And is there something going on here in the middle? Yeah, yeah, supply. As a power? Yeah. All right. And how long time is battery on this? Maybe three or five hours. Okay. So enough for many weeks, no? Yeah. All right. Cool. Thanks a lot.


Hey, welcome back to the channel. So yesterday I did a training for my Rainmaker Inner Circle people and this is an abbreviated version of that training. And it's gonna go over what I call the email cash machine and it's my entire email marketing strategy that brings in 40K plus a month in sales. And I'm gonna break this down to you. Everything from how I grow my email lists to what types of emails I send to the automations and the promotions that I send. So everything around my email marketing strategy, if you watch this video to the end, you're gonna see what that is. And like I said, this is a training that I did for my Inner Circle students. So if you are enjoying this content, you're getting a lot of value out of it, make sure you hit the like and subscribe button so that you can see any of my future videos. So with that said, I wanna hop into my screen here, my computer, and I'm gonna break down the entire email cash machine for you so that you can take this and you can apply it either to your own email list if you're writing for yourself and your own offers or if you're writing for a client, you can apply this strategy and get paid to do it for them. So what you're seeing on the screen here is first of all, this diagram here is a bird's eye view of my email cash machine. So my email list, it's the most valuable asset that I have. It's how I get paid every day. And every social media channel that I have points back to my email cash machine and my email list. So you can see these yellow blocks here. These are my social media channels, how I grow and get people into my email cash machine and these green boxes here are what I do once people are in my email cash machine on my email list. So this is my entire email marketing strategy, everything that I do to generate 40K plus a month from my email list. And so what I'm gonna cover in this training is everything from how I plan my emails to how I turn one piece of content or one email into four or more pieces of content to my daily emails, automations, and my monthly promotion strategy. And so you can apply this to your own list if you're writing for yourself or if you're writing for a client, you can take this and take the ideas that you learn here and apply it for your client. And so welcome to the email cash machine. It's gonna be a super valuable training for you and show you exactly what I do to grow and monetize my email list. So first off, we have how I grow my list, right? So I use social media, I use mostly organic methods and organic strategies to get people into my email cash machine. And I'll show you examples of what I'm doing here. So the first channel that I use is Twitter. And I have an entire video on how I'm growing on Twitter if you wanna watch a more detailed breakdown, I'll link to it below this video in the description. And what I'm doing is I'm just posting three tweets a day and one thread a week, which is like multiple tweets under one tweet. So this is my Twitter profile. Sean Anthony says if you wanna follow me and you can see every day I'm posting, I have one, two and I have one more posting in about an hour. And so every day I'm just posting three of these tweets and I have one thread a week that's posted, which is kind of like a longer blog article of multiple different tweets together. And the reason I do that is if I go to my analytics, you can see that Twitter has some pretty good organic reach. So I have 506,000 tweet impressions in the last 28 days. And when people view my profile, it says right here, 99,000 profile visits. That's a lot of profile visits. And so if I were to pay for ads, that would cost quite a bit of money to get 99,000 visits and clicks to my profile. But I'm using organic strategies and just posting or tweeting three times a day, one thread a week. And when people click over to my profile, there's this link here, which links to my different offers, both my free and paid offers. And people can join my email list by clicking on this link. So that is the first channel, which is Twitter. This is one of the channels I used to get people onto my email list. The second social channel I use is YouTube. So you're obviously watching this video on YouTube right now. And I post one to two videos a week on Monday and Wednesday. And my emails that I write to my list are reposted to my community tab. So if I go to my channel here, this is one of my videos. And you can see in the description section, it has links to some of my other videos. And it also has links to my Facebook group, which collects people's email address as well in exchange for a special report. And if you scroll down here, there's a link to join my list as well. And so that's the first section. When I post a video, every video I post has links to my email list. Another place that I used YouTube is my community tab. So I post my emails here, and that's a way where I turn one piece of content into two. So I take an email that I write to my list, I repost it here with a picture. And this is just another way to get more views out of that piece of content. So that's the second channel, YouTube. The third channel that I used to grow my email list organically is a Facebook group. I call these my big money micro groups. So every email that I write is repurposed as a post in my Facebook group with a picture. So if I go here and I go and click on my name, I can see all my different emails. This is the one that you just saw on YouTube. And you can see here it has a picture and it's posted to my group. So if I scroll through here, you can see all of my different emails and posts in my Facebook group. So now I'm taking one piece of content that email and I'm turning it into three. So I have an email to my list. I have a community post on my YouTube channel and I have a post in my Facebook group as well. So these are my three channels. This is how I grow my email list. I get about 25 to 30 people who join my list every day, sometimes more, sometimes less, but it's all through these organic channels here and these organic strategies.  So I talked about these yellow boxes here. This is how I grow my list and get people into my email cash machine. What do I do once people are on my list? The first thing is I have a daily hand razor and this is just a daily email to my list and this is how I get daily sales coming in, daily customers who are buying my different offers. So if you wanna see a training on my daily email strategy, I have VBO here. This is my daily email framework. VBO stands for Value Bridge and one thing. If you wanna see this, I'll link to a video below. It's called my money making formula for writing emails and you'll see exactly what this VBO stands for. But what I wanna talk about is my schedule for my daily hand razors. How do I plan out my emails for the week? The topics I'm gonna talk about and the theme of my emails. So on Mondays and Wednesdays, like I mentioned, I usually link to a YouTube video. So this is what that looks like here. You can see here, this is an email. It's a pretty short email. It just teases what's in the video and it gets people to click over to the link. So this goes directly to a new YouTube video that I post. So this is an email that's going out on Monday and Wednesday and this just links to a piece of content that I have. Now on Tuesday, what I do is I just post a standard daily hand razor using my VBO framework. And so it could be a mix of any one of these email types. I'll talk about these in a second. But on Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday, I'm writing one of these email types using my VBO value bridge one thing email writing framework. So let's take a look at an example of this one. This is one that I sent out yesterday. The subject line was this is what happens when you have too many decisions to make. And I go into like a personal story and an insight that I have around when you give people too many decisions, they just, they don't like making decisions. So they don't make a decision at all. So I talk about that here. It's a mixture of a personal story and an insight. And this is an example of just a standard daily email using my VBO framework here. So those go out on Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday and use one of these email types here. Now on Friday, this is a bit different. I call it Friday fire. It's my weekly content roundup. And what I'm doing here is I write a little short story about what happened during the week and I break it down by repurposing my content. So these are links to my two YouTube videos. This is linked to a Twitter thread that I wrote for the week. I also break down wins from the week from my different students and clients. So you can see that here. And then I also write an insight from the week, something that I thought about during the week that can teach somebody something when they're reading this. And at the end, I have a call to action. I ask people to reply to me with their biggest growth challenge. And if they wanna check out the different ways that I can help them, they can click here which leads to my different free and paid offerings. So those are my daily handraisers. This is my email schedule every week. Monday, Wednesday, linked to content like a YouTube video. Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, Sunday is just my standard VBO formula for writing emails. And then Friday is my Friday fire weekly content roundup. Now, what do I write in these emails, these VBO emails? So I have a lot more email types that I experiment with and that I write but these are some of my go-to types. And if you wanna see this live in action, you wanna get these emails delivered to your inbox so you can read them and study them. Go to my list, if you go to www.SeanAnthony.co there's gonna be an opt-in box at the bottom of the page where you can opt in, you can see these emails for yourself. A few of my email types. One is the Q and A. So this could mean question and answer or quote and answer. So I get a lot of questions from people directly to my email address or to my Facebook group, to my posts and people commenting, asking questions on Twitter. So what I do is I will quote the person whether it's a question or something they said that was funny or silly and then I write and answer. I write my feedback on that. Super simple email to write and one of my favorite types is my Q and A email. The second type is a teaser. So if I have a new offer coming out or a new piece of content, an example would be something like this, right? I'm teasing this YouTube video and getting people to click over to it. So if I have a new product launching or I have a new training coming out, I will tease it with an email and get people excited and build anticipation. A new insight. So I showed you an example here. This is an insight I had about when you give people too many decisions to make, they just don't make any decisions at all. And so this was a new insight that I had. So whenever I'm consuming content or I'm watching TV or movies or I'm just doing something in my daily life and I have a new idea or an insight or I learned something new, I can share that in an email. Personal story. This can be just something that happened in my daily life or in my business and I just talk about it in an email. Link to content. This is like I showed you here. This is linking to content. I'm getting people to click over to a YouTube video. If I have a Zoom training or something, I get people to click over to that. That's an example of a link to content email type. Current events. So if something's happening in the world, like right now, there's all this stuff going on with Joe Rogan, people are trying to cancel him. I might write an email about that. Something that's happening in the public eye that's top of mind for people. This can be very powerful. I don't use these as much, but if you are in tune with current events and pop culture, you can tie a lot of that stuff into emails. So the way that I use this mostly is I like to watch TV and movies. I will usually tie in those TVs and movies I watch and the lessons I learn there are something that comes to mind when I'm watching into an email. So that's a current event type of email. Customer win. These are another one of my favorites. I can just take a screenshot of a win that my customer or client had and then write an email about that, summarizing their experience. So what I do here is I just talk about like where they were before, where they were after working with me and what result they got and how they got the result. So these are so simple to write because you're a customer, if they are winning, they will typically write this entire email for you. And then lastly is a controversial opinion. So if I have an opinion that goes against like the status quo where people are saying one thing but I think something else, I will go in and give my own controversial opinion and write that up in an email. And so these are like my go-to email types. I use many other email types other than these, but these are some that I use most frequently. And this is for my daily hand razor emails. Now my automation sequences, these are to get automated sales and these are based on subscriber behavior. So these are three course sequences that I have. I have more than these three sequences that I'm trying and experimenting with, but whenever I'm setting up sequences for myself or I'm setting it up for a client, these are the core sequences that I focus on. So a welcome sequence. This is basically whenever someone joins my list, I have two places where you can join my list. One is through my Facebook group. So if I go here and I go back to my group, there are some membership questions. And one of them is enter your email here if you want my subject line secrets report. So someone enters your email here, they get put into a welcome sequence automation and it promotes my super fast sales email challenge, which is a $49 product teaches you how to write your first email that sells. So that's an example of a welcome sequence. Another one is if you go to SeanAnthony.co right here, you can opt in for a free course. I'll just show you right now if it will load. You can opt in here for my one K a day offer buffet course and that's also a welcome sequence and it also promotes my different offerings there. So that's a welcome sequence. Whenever someone joins your list, it's a seven to 10 email sequence that welcomes them and also promotes a front end offer that you have. An abandoned cart sequence. So this is whenever someone starts to check out for one of my products, they put their name in, their credit card details, their address, but for whatever reason they get distracted, they have to pick up their kids from school or someone's at the door, the mailman, they get distracted and they don't complete their order. The abandoned cart sequence simply brings them back and gets them to complete the order. Another way that I use this is I have a coaching program. So if someone starts to fill out the application but they don't finish it, I get them to come back and fill that out so that I can reach out to them. And so that's what an abandoned cart sequence does. It just gets people who have started the sales process but didn't complete it to come back and finish it. The third sequence and this is, I love this sequence because of how profitable it is. It's called the Thank You Next Upsell Sequence. If you wanna see the breakdown of this sequence specifically, I have it in my Cash Windfall Campaigns product which is linked in the description below. And what this does is whenever I have a new customer who goes through one of my products, once they've finished the product, I thank them for being a customer. And then I ask them, hey, would you like to tackle the next challenge together, the next thing together? And that will upsell them or cross sell them to the next product that can help them with that next problem. And this is a super powerful sequence. This is typically the first sequence I'll set up for a client because there's no better person to reach out to and get them to buy again than a customer who is happy with your first product. So if you have a customer that's happy with product A that you have, it's very easy to get them to buy product B because they wanna continue working with you because they had such a good experience with that first product. So this is a sequence I set up at the end of all of my products. Whenever they buy one, they go through it. I thank them for being a customer. And I ask them if they wanna tackle that next thing together, which is my next offer. So these are my core automation sequences to get automated sales, whether I'm sleeping or awake or on vacation. These are running all the time 24, seven, three, six, five whenever someone takes a specific behavior, whether that's joining my list, whether that is going through and starting the checkout process but not completing it or completing one of my products, I'm introducing them to the next thing. The last part of my email cash machine are monthly promotions. So these are to create bigger cash windfalls in a shorter time period. So I do one or two of these a month. Typically I have just one of these a month and my main promotion is for my email side hustle program. If you want more details on that, it's also linked in the description. And so every four to five weeks, I'm running a reenrollment campaign for the next class of email side hustle students. So every four weeks over a 10 day period, I have a promotion that goes out over email and my Facebook group and my YouTube channel that gets people into that next email side hustle class. The second promotion is if I have a new second product that's launching like last month, I had my cash windfall campaigns new product at launch. So I had my email side hustle promotion and they also had the cash windfall campaigns promotion going now. And so this is my email cash machine. I covered how I get people into the, into my email cash machine onto my list, how I grow that organically by 25 to 30 people every day. I talked about what I do once you pour on my list, my daily hand raise and my daily email strategy, the automations that I use, the core sequences and then also the monthly promotions for those bigger cash windfalls in a shorter period of time where there's a start and end date. And so this system here, very simple system that I use, simple strategy, this brings in 40 K a month. And like I said, it's pretty much all organic. So it's almost a hundred percent profit other than the tools that I pay for to run this. And so this is a super powerful strategy. And if you're wondering like where you should start for your email marketing strategy, whether you're writing for your own list or for a client, this should help you out greatly. So go through this again, apply this and implement the different segments on how to grow your list, on how to nurture your list every day and get daily sales using these handraisers, use these email types and get on my list at www.SeanAnthony.co to see these emails in action. Here's the automation sequences to set up, the core sequences, and then also the monthly promotion strategies that I use. So this is a training that I did for people in my Rainmaker Inner Circle, which is an expensive investment.

Criteria for what it means to be a good leader at each stage is, one, having a bit of vision, two, being willing to delegate decisions, not just tasks. And what I mean by that is, make sure that you're holding your team accountable for the full results that you can move in parallel, not just in sequence. And three, introducing process only at the right time when there's a purpose to it, not just for the sake of it.


Hey, this is Brett, and this 2016 Ford F-250 Crew Cab Short Box Platinum is stock number 13840Z. I am here at Summit Automotive in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, your new and used heavy-duty truck headquarters. This 2016 Ford F-250 has the 6.7-liter power stroke diesel engine that's paired up with these six-speed automatic transmission. This truck has been fully-safetyed and inspected by our service shop per the state of Wisconsin inspection process. It has a fresh oil and filter change, all the fluids have been checked and topped off, and it is 100% ready to go. I'm going to go all the way around in this video inside underneath, start it up, and take a look under the hood to give you the most accurate representation possible. Ruby Red Tint Coat is the color. I shoot all my videos in 4K, so if you have HD capabilities, turn them on out because it is your best way to check out the quality, condition, options, and cleanliness of the truck before seen in person.

This one comes with the 20-inch painted and polished aluminum wheels. It has Michelin LTX AT tires. These are LT27565R20s. I would say they have about 50% to 60% of the tread left on them. Frame and underbody is exceptionally clean on this truck. This is a one-owner, clean title history, clean car facts out of Tennessee. Front fenders absolutely perfect. The front bumper and lower valance are in great shape. Even for being a painted bumper, I didn't see any major dents, dings, or even rock chips on. It looks really good. You get the chrome tow hooks, the platinum grille. The hood is in fantastic condition. I didn't see any dents or dings on there, and the passenger side front fender is in great shape as well. This is honestly one of the cleanest 2016s, this body style that I've seen in quite a while. Really in nice condition. Passengers side front wheels in great shape. As you go down this side of this 2016 Ford F-250, take note of how clean that body is, how reflective and mirror-like that paint is. I take these HD videos, so if you are far away or even if you're close by and you just cannot make the trip down but you're still interested in purchasing the vehicle, you can see the truck, hear the truck, and have confidence in what you're looking at before you even get here. So when you do get here, there's absolutely no surprises and you can make a smart and informed buying decision from wherever you're at. If this video helps you make that buying decision, let your salesman know that you saw the video. It was helpful and that breath sent you. Then I can continue doing these videos for all of our great customers. Back tires have just about as much tread as the front tires, and once again look at how clean that frame in the underbody is. The box rails are absolutely perfect. This truck looks like it just rolled off the assembly line. It's kind of crazy. Lower rockers and cab corners are in great shape and it does come with the factory chrome step bars. You get the platinum lettering on the box there, dents and edents or dings, and you do get the chrome tipped exhaust. Then around to the back, the rear bumper is in great shape as well. It does have the backup parking sensors, no dents or dings in there, full towing package of course with the receiver hitch four pin and seven pin wiring. The tailgate is in excellent shape. You get the platinum cover on there. That looks really good. It does have the tailgate step assist, spray and bed liner. This is a factory forward spray and bed liner. You get the fifth wheel and goose neck prep package, seven pin wiring back here as well as the goose neck hitch and a couple tie downs. There's your tailgate step assist. That shuts nice and solidly and as we go around to the driver's side, just as clean as that passenger side. No major dents or dings on the box, looks really, really good. And for full disclosure, this back wheel is in excellent shape as well. On the rest of the side of the truck, doors and cab are in fantastic condition. Didn't see any dents, didn't see any dings, very nice shape all the way around. This one has the driver's side door code entry. We do have the code for this truck. If you ever wanted to figure out what your code is for your 11 to 16 Super Duty in the upper right hand part screen, got a video showing you how to find that. Has a heated mirrors built in directional signals, these power fold in, power telescope out. Really a nice feature.  You get the platinum stitched into the backrest. There are no rips, there are no tears. These seats are in fantastic condition. Factory floor mats, auto headlamps, power pedals, power windows, locks and mirrors. And these mirrors do power fold in. I was like showing both sides so that you know that both sides are working properly. And you've got to have the ignition on for the telescopic feature to work so I'll show you that in a second. Back seats are just as clean as the front seats, no rips or tears back here. You do get the power sliding rear window. The seats are stitched just like the front seats. There's a subwoofer behind the back seats. There's storage underneath. That is your case for your goose neck hitch. It does have a locking piece right there to lock this seat down so you can place valuables in there. That locks with the ignition key and you get a 110-volt, 150-watt plug-in, carpentine and floor mats are in really nice condition. Child safety locks on the back doors and the inside and the bottoms of the doors all look fantastic. Like I said, one of the cleanest 16s this body style I've seen in quite a while.

Comes with the leather-wrapped and wood-grain-trimmed heated steering wheel. You get volume and tune controls on the right as well as Bluetooth controls and information and cruise controls on the left, steering wheels in fantastic condition. I want to show you those mirrors real quick so you can see that power telescope out and in and once again both sides out and in. Alright, six-speed automatic transmission turned out, four-wheel drive stability control. This one has the Ford MyTouch radio. You get the factory navigation system on here, it does have, there's Highway 41 so that is working nicely. You get AM, FM and Sirius XM radio capabilities on here.  Here you're more tactile, volume, tune and climate controls. Factory exhaust brake, you get 12-volt power point, factory brake controller, four up-fitter switches, you get your four cup holders. You can take these out, not like that, but got them cleaned too well. Anyways, they come out like so if you don't want them in there. Sync for your Bluetooth cell phone, 12-volt power point there and a 110-volt, 150-watt plug-in. Passenger side, floor mat and seat are in fantastic condition. I don't think this truck's ever been smoked in, smells like new inside, headliners in great shape. You do get home link buttons for your garage door security systems and lane systems, map lights and power sign rear window button. We'll start it up and take a look under the hood. Starts right up, no check engine lights or anything like that.

What's up internet? Yung mga PC owners takot at praning. Takot nabaka masiray yung mga PC components sila at praning that they can be doing more to protect their stuff. And the fears understandable. Una, we all rely on our computers now for work from home. Datay kung masiray yung home computer mo, hasa lang yun. Ngayon, wala ka nang panghanap buhay. Pangalawa, there are so many different things that can damage your computer. No matter how careful you are, accidents happen. Itong Lenovo Yoga Laptop ko, na hulog kaya sira na yung screen. Dapat touch screen yung screen, di nagumalika na yung touch screen. And now there are spider cracks all over the LCD. Finally, as enthusiasts, mahal natin yung mga mahal natin components. We recently did a poll and the majority of the respondents said that they skipped many meals in order to afford the computer that they have. Food is supposed to be life, but for a lot of us, we'll choose the computer over the food. So there are a lot of reasons why we should and we do want to take care of our computers. But not everything is within our control. Ginuwa mo na lahat, paminsan, mahalas lang talaga. Mother nature decides to reign on your day with an actual storm which leads to a flood, which leads to lightning, or makalindol, or may volcanic explosion. All of these things, you know, we could not have prevented no matter how hard we tried. Itong customer namin, bumahasa ka nila and all of his things got covered in mud. F, good luck nalang trying to salvage anything from that but basically, you know that, pero sobrang sakit nun kumangyari yung sa computer mo. That's why it's a good idea to get insurance. Sana na tayo sa insurance. Yung bahay mo, may insurance. Yung buhay mo, may insurance. Yung auto mo na di mo na magamit kasi palagi naman lockdown, may insurance din yun. So what more yung computer mo na ginagamit mo every day. Dapat may insurance din yun. Fortunately, I recently learned about co-co-gents, pro-tech insurance, and as far as I know, ito yung first of its type in the country or at least yung first na nabilitaan ko. It covers both desktops and laptops and that includes peripherals. So kahit yung lason mo na keyboard, kasama yan, webcam, mouse, monitor, those are all covered. As mentioned, the usual damage from other nature is covered such as fire, lightning, floods and earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. Rubbery is also covered.  Very importantly, the price is cheap. For one whole year, the starting cost for a desktop is 1,000 pesos and for a laptop, it's 1,500. Computers that are leased out such as in internet cafes or LAN cafes can't be covered. But computers that you use for work from home are definitely covered. If you're a school or an office, you can also have your equipment covered. So how do you get protected? You just start by filling up a form which you can get at any co-co-gen branch or their contact details are in the video description. Insurance is usually described as protection, coverage, but personally for me, it's about buying peace of mind that, you know, you won't be able to avoid misfortune, calamities. Pero yun nga, kahit na malasan ka, at least with insurance, you will have the funds needed to get your rig back up and running and you don't need to worry anymore where you're going to get the funds to do that. Thanks for watching. And all the thanks in the world to our top fans, Christian Espinosa, John Ruben Ocha, ITX addict, Richard Ongkinko, Ian Meru, and Leah Magnaie. Your support really goes a long way to helping upgrade the production quality of the channel and we really, really appreciate it. Thanks so much.


A few weeks ago. I ranked my best and worst of the Pixar films today. It's Dreamworks turn on this episode of rise of the animations That's a working title here. I'm guru hub It's a shame that one of the best-looking Shreks is also the most miserable to watch all the favorites return and Shrek the third Donkey puss in boots Fiona and of course the big green org himself. This movie is not funny.  It'll haunt your dreams. I Can see the pitch for turbo now Listen, it's a movie about a snail that does the opposite of what snails do instead of going slow It goes fast. This mollusk will be an outcast having to prove his value to the rest of his kind It's basically a bug's life meshed with cars except for not as good because you know, we're not Pixar If you're wondering how many terrible puns one movie can contain watch B movie or better yet Don't Seinfeld is my favorite TV comedy. So I thought there was a chance. This could be good, honey It's stung. I thought those puns were bad. That's barely scratching the surface be afraid Be very afraid. I'm sorry Home Curly sits at 48% on Rotten Tomatoes Making me think that the 48% didn't actually watch the film or they just love Jim Parsons as he plays the lead alien It also doesn't help that another movie already exists where an alien is trying to get home It's called a Mac and me. It's terrible. I'm joking. I'm referring to E.T. Of course just watch that instead. I Am 99.9% confident this movie only exists because a writer out there realized Some actors have big lips and I think this is an accurate assumption Because no one would cast Renee Zellweger in an animated movie for just her voice This is another pun heavy picture The title in fact is one and I have nothing against puns Shark tail just didn't float my boat though. If you catch what I'm casting out once again. I'm sorry Dreamworks has plenty of fine films under its belt to such as my number five spot rise of the Guardians Financially this thing was a huge disaster Responsible for 350 layoffs at Dreamworks due to its poor box office pull I found it to be a fun refreshing animation wedged in between a slew of superhero flicks It also has one of the coolest versions of Santa I've ever seen. He's referred to as north in the film Fans desperately want to sequel but alas. It's probably never gonna happen. Oh well We'll always have those weird Elsa and Jack Frost shippers out there. I hate that. I know that word Shippers stupid There are two types of people in this world Those that like Jack Black and those that hate joy his infectious personality shines through in Kung Fu Panda as Poe The lovable oath destined to be the next dragon warrior truth be told Poe can be a bit frustrating to listen to But the rest of the cast and the amazing set pieces more than make up for it Dreamworks first big cash cow continues to be one of its best 2001's Shrek was the perfect marriage of pop culture humor and fairy tale settings Watching the gingerbread man being tortured by Lord Farquaad while reciting the muffin man nursery rhyme never gets old Plus any movie that features smash mouths all-star is an instant win for me That song will be played at my funeral I Ignore the initial trailers for how to train your dragon because I'm a damn fool It will be the last time I ever disregard this franchise and I'm very excited for the planned third film the hidden world There are plenty of mature themes to be found in dragons such as overcoming disabilities Carving your own path and putting your faith in an unlikely stranger much like the faith I put into the local quiz nose worker who said he would hook me up with a free sub if I signed flip for him for five minutes While he went out for a smoke. He never came back I never got that sub Damn if I didn't flip that sign well It's not often when a sequel manages to live up to the original even more uncommon when it surpasses it in every way possible How to train your dragon does just that with higher stakes Emotional surprises detailed animation an epic score and an even bigger bond being formed by our two leads Hiccup and his best friend toothless What do you want an apology? Is that why you're pouting big baby boo? We'll try this on You're feeling it yet. I asked people for their favorite DreamWorks picture on the internet. They have thoughts DreamWorks Well shark has some moments Kung Fu Pinda Thanks for taking time out of your alleged nap to answer that let's wrap up While DreamWorks may not yet have to prestigious catalog that Disney and Pixar do they have started to really carve out some nice features of their own While the crudes and Madagascars of the world didn't make my top spots. They are enjoyable family films all the same Thanks for watching this episode of how to rank your DreamWorks. That's a working title And now we end how every song should begin somebody
