🟡Top OFFERS Right Now! Business-Consumer-Non-Profit 🟡 Jay is Annoyed! Ask Us ANYTHING ❓ | Ep. 401

Q4 is looking different this year, and Jay Schwedelson explains why the usual playbook of urgency and discounts won’t cut it. From content tweaks that can boost B2B downloads by 30% to consumer offers framed around “prices will rise,” Jay lays out what’s actually working right now—and why. Plus, a quick detour into football, tailgating, and why baseball might just be the most boring sport of all time.
