So, Rainmaker… Is that a controversial enough title for this essay? It comes out of a real conversation I had where a business owner I was advising could quickly have steered into that territory. He was asking if he should write his copy in a professional, even...
Hey there Rainmaker, today is an off day for me. Thursdays are supposed to be packed with writing time, and I got some writing done, but I’m having trouble keeping momentum. I need to start this email this way, because admittedly I’m not moved to write like I am most...

Hey there Rainmaker… I’m sweaty. (Yes, you read that right: sweaty.) Today’s topic, a diversion from the routine. But worth it. Totally. Although I may get a few unsubscribes for veering too far off topic, anybody I lose would simply be degrading the quality of the...
