I have been following sid for more than a year. I wonder how this guy earns a lot of money just sitting at home( Poes garden, that is what he mentions in his newsletter 😂)

This blogs actually breakdowns his entire business model.

Keep going!

There is a also a matter of a personal "connect". Somehow I never felt that connect to Siddharth as a person. He must be good. Just that I don't find that compatibility. On the other hand I do feel connect to you!. Since about 4-5 years since first started following you. I did not move to Alphaclub etc just because of my personal circumstances and life stage..Here is to staying connected!!

Your vibe attracts your tribe. That's why there is no single coach that captures the entire market. Everyone has an opportunity and everyone attracts people like themselves. YOU are the niche.

I love the analysis and breakdown Deepak. Would love for a post about DFY, DWY and DIY because I know many are starting out and would love to know where should they get started.

Another post idea which I'd love for you to cover is this video titled: "Stop selling information"

Would love to see both from you!

I loved the breakdown, I have been working with some of Sidz's students, you said it right, in fact I have never met a single coach mentored by Sidz who complains about the program.

One of the best read after a long time. I believe these kind of articles should be part of your paid Substack community, because it takes lot of time to do research. I am looking forward for more such business analysis. You should Create a Survey to ask people that whose business people are most interested to evaluate ... so that you can plan your content accordingly.

Thank you so much for such an informative post.

Please write something about 'early mover advantage' in this space as how to applies to 'newcomers of today' since you get to hear ONLY and ONLY about success stories and all failure stories (of those who are doing EXACTLY the same things that the heroes are doing) never come to forefront thereby casting a spotlight on success alone.

Is it too late to start now that all the low hanging fruits are taken?

To what extent the processes these people used to find success would apply to newcomers going foreword? (I am asking since times change and what worked in past may not work in future as it is preached/observed )

I can draw a parallel with the Stock-Market-Furus who post their MTM profit screenshots but conveniently forget when in loss.

What would be success ratio in this niche? 1%?

Over what time period? 1 year? 5 years? Lifetime?

Best
