    “Showing up everyday with a positive attitude” and believing that your product solves the problem. Great video.

    Ezra's story is super inspiring, showing that grit beats traditional education every time. For entrepreneurs looking to replicate his success in e-commerce, remember that beyond sales funnels, customer lifetime value (CLV) is key. Optimizing for repeat purchases through subscription models or loyalty programs can significantly boost your CLV and overall revenue.

    Great video. I have to ask would you mind sometimes putting in products from winnerzila in your videos? Like give us a brief review of their service. I think a lot of people here would want to see that. I just subbed on their service yesterday and I already got seven sales. I am so happy that it finally started to work for me, it would be really nice to see detailed review of their service. I am planning to sub on their lifetime plan as it is very affordable now.

    What do you expect him to do??? Stay in bed and be depressed 24/7?? I’m sure he takes care of business and his obligations while he is heartbroken. I’m sure he breaks down in private because he is human.. I’m not so sure if we can say the same about about you.. Share kindness not judgement..

    You obviously suffer from selective hearing because he did acknowledge that there are a lot of other social media sites but he rates Meta's sites higher than all of them for econmerce stores.
