Why are so many smart entrepreneurs broke while "simple" action takers get rich?
They are broke because they are stuck in their heads, trying to build the perfect machine before selling a single ticket.
There is a dangerous trap in the digital world right now. It is called "Tinkering."
You might be tweaking your logo, rewriting your bio, or trying to set up a complex 50-step AI automation.
Stop it.
The only thing that matters is the MVP: Minimum Viable Process .
What is the Minimum Viable Process (MVP)?
It is the absolute bare minimum required to get a result (a lead or a sale).
When Chad looks at a new opportunity, he doesn't ask, "How can I build the perfect version of this?"
He asks, "What is the fastest way to get this live by tomorrow afternoon?" .
If it's ugly, that's fine. If it breaks, that's fine.
Because 80% of ideas fail anyway. You need to fail fast so you can find the winner that makes you millions.
Why is the "AI Agent" craze a distraction?
It is a bubble where people are selling shovels instead of digging for gold.
Right now, the internet is flooded with people trying to sell "AI Agencies" and "AI Bots" to local businesses.
Chad warns that this is exactly like the "GoHighLevel" craze or the "Crypto" craze. Everyone is doing the same thing, and nobody is making real money except the software sellers .
The Local Newsletter model is different. It is a media asset. It is a tangible business that owns the attention of a community.
AI changes every 5 minutes. The need for local connection never changes .
What is the cost of "getting stuck in your head"?
The cost is your spot in the Mastermind.
Going into 2026, the Entourage Mastermind is raising its price to $15,000.
Chad is looking for action takers who follow instructions, not "tinkerers" who question every step.
If you can't follow the simple MVP steps, launch the publication, turn on the co-reg, and syndicate the content, you are overcomplicating it .
Get out of your head. Put the button on the page. Launch the imperfect product.
That is how you retire.
