✅ The Hearst Media Empire

Chad revealed the "Hearst Ecosystem" strategy for owning all the attention in your city so that you can build a massive, multi-million dollar business asset. 

The strategy involves launching three distinct local publications: a Community Newsletter, a Cause-based Newsletter, and a Food Newsletter.

By using a "Co-Registration" system, you can drop your lead costs to just 20 cents per subscriber.

✅ SEO Ranking Magic

Chad's team is currently linking Letterman with Joshua Zamora’s DFY Suite 7.0 so that you can apply "link juice" and ranking power to your articles with a single click. 

DFY Suite's high-authority network builds the "votes" Google needs to see to put your content at the top.

You can secure Chad's DFY Suite 7.0 bundle for just $227, but the price rises by $10 after every 20 sales, so buy early if you want it.

With the new Phase Tracker and integrated Ad Dashboard, you will be able to  monitor your cost-per-lead and view your active creatives without ever leaving the Letterman platform.

✅ Insta G Viral Strategy

Conny is currently using the "Insta G" tool to download high-traffic local reels from platforms like Instagram and TikTok so that she can repost them for massive organic engagement. 

✅ Mailgun Probation Fix

If you are using Mailgun and see a high "fail rate," use the "throttle" toggle in your Letterman settings to slowly build your sending reputation so you don't get blocked. 

✅ DFY Letterman Build Out Price Hike

The current $297 Done-For-You newsletter setup is officially moving to a price point of $997 to $3,000 for the general public starting in January.

Stop letting your local articles gather digital dust on page 10 of Google.

Joshua Zamora’s automated ranking engine, DFY Suite,  provides the high-authority "votes" you need to dominate your city. 

Using Chad’s special bundle link is the only way to unlock the upcoming Letterman API tie-in and secure the early-bird price of $227 before it rises.

✅ The 20% Subscriber Goldmine

The Team discovered that typically15% to 20% of all local newsletter subscribers are actually local business owners hiding in plain sight.

🔥 The "Facing the Chamber" Mindset

Resilient Asset Building: "Facing the Chamber" refers to the literal moment Chad Nicely sat across from a loaded gun while fighting to save the jobs of 80 employees.

Chad shared this story to emphasize why you must form an LLC immediately (ideally in Wyoming, Delaware, or North Dakota) to keep your business records clean and "Acquisition Ready" for a buyout.

He recommends using Wave Accounting to keep your books perfect from day one.

What to Expect This Week or Soon:

✅ The team is heads-down on finalizing the Phase Tracker dashboard for Letterman and the new "Green Number" metrics for GC. Expect to see those roll out very soon.

✅ We are also watching the Letterman / DFY Suite integration closely; developers already started work connecting them immediately after the last Tech Call. 

See you on the next calls. 

🖖 See you next week.

Real calls. Real updates. Zero guesswork.
