Our Special Announcement
You may have seen on our social media pages that we have teased this 'special announcement' for a while.
We actually told all on the podcast we released last night so if you want to see that + our best lessons from the podcast so far, click here!
Anyway, as some of you may know, Progressus Network actually started as a university grant last year.
Our initial vision for it was that we would find a way to connect young people with mentors and educators in an array of different fields.
Had we won the grant, we would have used the credibility and backing of the university to reach out to mentors and educators.
However, we didn't and that's where the idea behind the podcast was born.
It gave us a chance to speak to people in different industries and spread their knowledge among our young audience.
It was only in the past couple of months that we revisited this idea because of seeing the way that the market and the macro data are pointing.
Formal education is declining by $50 billion as an industry yearly, whereas e-learning and info are growing by $40 billion a year.
With more and more people seeing the opportunity with online courses, there is only going to be more noise in the coming years.
More people sell courses to get rich, rather than doing the thing they sell a course about themselves.
More smoke, more direct response marketing and more people spending their hard-earned money on investments that don't pay off.
I have received terrible courses and mentors and have also worked with INCREDIBLE educators and mentors.
I know how unpleasant that can be and also how rewarding it is to work with amazing people.
This is why we are working behind the scenes to release something special for you guys based on our feedback so far.
We are launching The Progressus Portal!
A free-to-access platform that connects you with vetted and verified online educators, communities and coaches.
I could talk all day about this but it'll be coming to you soon and the waitlist will open when Instagram lets us open a f***ing broadcast channel lol.
Anyway, it's going to be great and it's going to be free so stay tuned!
Progress With Us Podcast
It took us 7 hours last week to film our latest episodes due to lots of trial and error in the new studio.
Let's of things that need tweaking and perfecting but we should have the final set-up all pinned down soon!
We sat down, had a laugh and discussed our favourite lessons from each of the podcast episodes so far.
There are some real gems in there so if you want to head over and give it a watch, you know where to find us!
Lessons From This Week
There Will Never Not Be Problems
If you are waiting for the circumstances in your life to be perfect before doing something, enjoy waiting. Shit always crops up, life never slows down. Just do it anyway.
Without Consistency, There Is Nothing
What makes things hard isn't complexity, it's consistency. As boring as it is, you just have to keep doing it before you get anything back. - Alex Hormozi
Timing
Be early, hand things in on time, reply to people fast and don't put things off. Speed and action make everything easier.
Thanks for reading guys,
Charlie @ Progressus Network x
P.S. The last day of Project Kaizen is tomorrow! I'll leave you all alone for a while after this.
