Satan's morning breath + your marketing systems 🦭
This may be a little surprising...
Hey folks,
Quick question...
Ever tried running a business while bobbing around on a yacht, watching seals demonstrate their unique approach to work-life balance?
(Spoiler alert: Their strategy involves a lot of lying around and smelling absolutely rank)
I'm not even kidding. I'm literally writing this from my old man's boat somewhere in the Marlborough Sounds of New Zealand. No wifi. No cell service. Just me, my better half, and these blubbery beach-dwellers showing off their best "I've got my stuff figured out" poses.
Here's the thing though...
A few years back, being completely off-grid would've sent me into an absolute tailspin. You know that feeling, right? That constant itch to check your notifications? That nagging worry that everything's falling apart the moment you step away?
Yeah, I used to be that guy too.
But something interesting happened while I've been out here contemplating why seals smell like Satan's morning breath...
My business hasn't missed a beat.
No fires to put out. No drama. No chaos. Just steady growth and happy customers.
Starting to see where I'm going with this?
Look, I'll level with you - this isn't some "passive income guru" nonsense where I'm about to tell you that you can make millions while sleeping on a beach. (Though these seals seem to have that lifestyle pretty well sorted).
The truth is, my business runs smoothly because I've got the right systems in place. And a big part of that is having tools that actually do what they're supposed to do.
Which brings me to why I'm actually writing this...
My mates at Hubspot have cracked the code on this stuff. While I've been offline playing wannabe sailor, their platform has been:
Running my social media game like a boss
Keeping my content flowing
Managing my customer relationships
Tracking everything that matters
Making my business look way more professional than I feel right now (trust me, after three days at sea, that's saying something)
But here's what I love most - it's not complicated. No 47-step processes. No PhD in rocket science required. Just simple systems that work.
Want to know the real kicker?
Remember how I mentioned those seals earlier? They've got one job - just exist and be seals. And they do it perfectly, even if they smell terrible doing it.
Your business tools should be the same (minus the smell). They should just work, doing their job while you focus on the bigger picture - whether that's growing your empire or, you know, watching marine life perfect the art of doing sweet FA.

P.S. Seriously though... why do seals smell that bad? It's like they've been marinating in a dumpster fire. But I guess that's another story for another day...
