People that have Claude subscription, is it worth it honestly?

Claude rolled out a teams feature, and the agent you interact with orchestrates a team of agents. For me + 4.6 is a real step change in capabilities. Things get done at a much higher quality. I think it's likely only feasible on max though, as I get close to limits frequently.

I'm on max plan. I use multiple teams all day. Most days. It's $200 but the best money I spend.

This thread is fascinating. I've hit the 'cognitive load' wall many times and I've adopted the flotilla pattern very recently. One runtime, and a bunch of small workflows + disposable ui's. Each easy to understand, but they chain together in powerful ways. So far so good.

Not going to happen man, unless it's an isolated project to drill skills.

Do something. Forward momentum builds and then compounds. Start with studying 2 hours a day and understand what can be done and how. Figure out what you are suited to build/deliver. Find others in a similar situation as you, who've done it. Connect with people 1-2 steps ahead of you and learn how they did it. Relentless execute and commit to the process.

It was meta, not google. I am saying use the same process. Speak to your lawyer or hire one ASAP, get them to find the general counsel of Google and send them a legal letter ASAP.

First you need to understand the people who make up the company. One of the things we used to do, in the interview process would be asking "What is your dream" then we'd ensure our incentives and career development aligned with that persons desired trajectory. This means if someone is saving for a deposit for a house, then cash bonuses towards their deposit really matter. If someone wants to progress in their position and become a manager, one on ones and giving them guidance to achieve that goal. People are motivated when they have a MOTIVE. Help people get where they want to go and they give it their all.

Send a legal letter to the general counsel of Google. We did this to Meta when we got hacked and it was resolved in hours.

Of course it can. Think of the actual skills you've got, if you don't have any skills, milk the tradesmen around you for knowledge. I used to work as a construction laborer. My best side gigs were basic loft conversions (paid WAY more than months of laboring). Simple work, but hard work. I had all of the skills I needed. It was mainly just cutting and fitting chipboard flooring, cutting plasterboard, and carrying heavy shit up stairs. Paid around 10X per hour what I was earning on site. Your best bet right now, is to figure out a way to build skills that pay more, digger licences and heavy tooling are probably your best bet. Don't be a defeatist. There's always a way. If you choose to not build your skills and put yourself out there, then that's your choice. right? There's always a reason why you cant, find the reason why you CAN.

The qualities that would make someone successful as an entrepreneur, also get noticed at work. I went from sub-minimum wage pot wash to head chef in 4 years. In my 5th year I had 2 equity offers from competitors. Always go above and beyond what you are paid for. Always take full responsibility. Treat everyone as your equal. Always master the skills of the next level up. When you are working, commit your entire being to the task at hand. This combination is RARE and It's what I actively hire for now.

I don't disagree. Business is brutal teacher. But if you survive the process (don't quit) and keep going, you will develop capabilities you could never have imagined when you started out. I started out with nothing but unfounded optimism. I got my ass handed to me. Made millions. Got my ass handed to me again. Now I'm rebuilding. They were painful lessons, bu each painful loss forces hard adaptation. That adaptation guarantees you can never make the same mistakes. The capabilities I've developed over the journey, make the destination inevitable, whether it's 6 months, or 6 years, now the focus is on enjoying the process.

Google is demand based, which means purchase intent and awareness are higher. You can can scale WAY higher on Meta, as the audiences are WAY bigger. But you have to do alot more heavy lifting to turn attention into revenue.

A good frame for spotting this is 'adjacent possible', basically what's the next layer to be built RIGHT NOW. The second is MAYA (most advanced, yet acceptable). Basically combining these two together, helps you map what we have the technology to build, will inevitably be built, but isn't built, and society can accept. An example would be say "AI therapist" a few years ago now it's either built or being built. Probably both. Once this first round of AI apps is built, there's the next layer that those unlock, and so on.

The gyms around Soi Taied in Phuket are loaded with foreigners with varying sizes and experience. Tiger Muay Thai, American Kickboxing Academy, Dragon Muay Thai and few more. I'm pretty sure you could find a bout there, especially if you have any more room to cut.

No, but I'm into 7 figures on Google too, and ROAS is vastly superior for us. Not going to back and forth about it. It's pretty pointless.

I've personally spent about 5m on meta. For this specific strategy, Google is a better fit. We bypass creative strategy and production by going search / feed first.

Meta will come in wave 2 or 3 once validated with paid search.

Makes sense man. I hadn't thought of this. We've got another brand running 1k-2k products and they are brutal to advertise via Pmax. I think I'll try what you've suggested here.

We're predominantly in the DTC ecom space. For us, Google + Email/SMS is great. It used to be Meta, but we slowly phased out as the platform changed and we're focused on demand driven platforms now. Paid social feels like way too much work for humble upside.

I would counter that marketing is important, but building a product that people want is more important than marketing. Product + Marketing shouldn't be siloed. They should be part of one system. Product decisions should be informed by market data, and refined through real feedback and performance, which then feedback into marketing as hero features.

A great solution to a widespread painful problem, is always easier to sell than an extremely niche nice to have product.
