Catch 2

Welcome to “Pirate’s Booty” – a curated stash of local marketing news and content for your reading pleasure.


What’s that? A mutli-billion dollar corporation is using even more AI? What a surprise!

AI News? That’s right! This one about OpenAI announcing a low cost subscription plan called ChatGPT Go.

The catch? Currently it’s only available in India. But find out more about this and see if it may be coming to you here:

OpenAI Announces Low-Cost Subscription Plan: ChatGPT Go

A few weeks back I did a coaching call about tracking metrics so you can always have the best marketing materials and strategies.

Which is why I’m sharing this article about new LinkedIn alerts that tell you when posts drive views and followers. If you use LinkedIn or are just interested in how metrics lead to more sales, read the article here:

On this week's Aloha Friday Local Marketing Coaching Call I covered:

                                      HighLevel In A Hurry: New Course Sneak Peek

As you know, we've been all about HighLevel recently. And the reason why is simple…

HighLevel helped transform us into an AI-powered agency. Which saved us a ton of time and money. And helped boost our profits.

That's why we can't do too much to praise HighLevel.

That said, there are a ton of features. And a lot of the game is knowing which are important and how to effectively use them.

Which is why we created a new, free course called “HighLevel In A Hurry”.

And on this week's Aloha Friday Local Marketing Coaching Call, I gave viewers a sneak peek into this course. As well as shared how to get it free.

The replay is up now and you can tune in here:

Thanks for reading. 

But before you go, big news you may have missed:

Last week in Shark Bites I told you Nick’s YouTube channel was within spittin distance of 100,000 subscribers. Well guess what? He did it!

Thanks to everyone who subscribed last week to help him get over the hump.

If you haven’t subscribed or checked out his channel, there’s lots of goodies about using AI to make money and it’s all for free (for now).

Tom Gaddis

Attended the School of Hard Knocks. A former restaurant manager in Oklahoma, Tom always wanted to be self-employed and free from the butt-smooching of the corporate world. He wanted success bad enough that he picked up his family, including two small children and moved to beautiful Maui, Hawaii. Starting from zero, Tom embarked on building a local marketing consulting business. And promptly fell on his face! It seems Hawaiians were lovely people, until you tried to sell them something! But he persevered and learned from his mistakes. Today he's arguably one of the most successful in his niche and expecting to grow over 100% this year alone.
