Not a sweater defuzzer

Hey hey — I’ve never sent “last chance” emails for Shrimp Club before, because I didn’t think anyone waited till the last possible second to make that kind of investment. It’s not exactly an item you grab at the Target register, like a sweater defuzzer. But this year, as I’ve had Shrimp Club veteran and copywriting/marketing star Kevin Oberhausen conduct interviews with current and past members, I’ve discovered something: Turns out, Shrimp Club is sometimes a (semi-) impulse purchase. Alex Darby, who’s coming back for a second round (your round, if you join), said, “I thought, you know what? Shrimp Club had been on her radar for a while, but she didn’t think she would apply. “I did the back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. Of the day she did apply, she says: “I woke up really early in the morning…and an email popped. I had a moment of... I just need to do this, because otherwise I'll talk myself out of it.” What switched? “I had a moment of, ‘I want to do something so different. I want to be part of something really different. “‘No longer want to be part of the echo chamber crap or... people who have no direction.’ I felt like I had loads of direction, but nowhere to kind of point it. So that's why I did it. I did really have one of those moments.” If this email just popped for you and you’re having one of those moments, I hope you’ll follow the nudge and apply. We start this Tuesday with a welcome party, and then our hot seat calls begin the following Tuesday. As I mentioned in this morning’s email, you’re guaranteed a 10-15-minute hot seat every month. Applications close at 6pm ET. Not midnight, mind you — 6. Want in? Apply now. It’s far more dough than a sweater defuzzer, but can a sweater defuzzer really change your life? Hope to see you in there if it’s right for you. xoLaura Love Shrimp Mail? Forward this to a friend so they can get in on the action and sign up below.

Pssst! Today is the LAST DAY to join my 8-month live mentoring party/mastermind Shrimp Club! I may send more emails, so if you’d rather not hear about it, here you go: DON’T email me any more about Shrimp Club. Reader — Were you around for Clubhouse? That platform gave me PTSD. Imagine a swarm of blowhards claiming they were “just here to add value” — and then that “value” was a ten-minute recitation of their CV… …Or a feature-film-length tale of how they were an aimless, dead-broke sad sack...
Just 1 more day to join my 8-month* live mentoring party/mastermind Shrimp Club! That’s what I’ll be talking about until the deadline tomorrow, Friday, so if you’d rather not hear about it, here you go: DON’T email me any more about Shrimp Club. My friend and Shrimp Club alum Marisa Corcoran just had me, newsletter legend Tarzan Kay, and pre-launch expert Brenna McGowan (also a Shrimp Club alum) come into her new email sprint/program, “You’ve Got Email” to show off and review our recent...
Pssst! Last 2 days to join my 8-week live mentoring party/mastermind Shrimp Club! That’s what I’ll be talking about until the deadline tomorrow, Friday, so if you’d rather not hear about it, here you go: DON’T email me any more about Shrimp Club. Hey! I just listened to Amy Porterfield’s interview with Ryan Levesque, who — talking about people’s craving for real, human creative work over AI slop — led with the premise, “It’s never been harder to stand out.” Beg to differ. Not with the part...
