Two Prompts -> Entire Marketing Campaign

Greetings from The SaaSsy Entrepreneur, a weekly newsletter that injects a healthy dose of digital steroids into your life and business 💉 

Today we'll cover 5 useful tools and 5 interesting links.

• Bloks - AI-powered productivity assistant

• Claap - Video platform for teams with deep AI integration

• MarketingBlocks - All-in-one AI-driven content & marketing platform

• PadSplit - Airbnb for long-term room rentals

• Motion Invest - Buy & sell content websites

Bloks

• Auto-generate meeting notes and action items

• Get summaries and transcriptions from in-person meetings and video calls

• Replaces note-taking app, task manager, AI meeting assistant, web clipper, and bookmarking tool

• Works on macOS, iOS, Android, and Google Chrome

Pricing: Free while in beta

My 2 cents: Bloks aims to replace a lot of apps and become a productivity one-stop shop. If they succeed it’ll be a biggie. Right now the UI feels a little unpolished. Hence the beta. Also, check out the dancing apps section on the landing page. Brilliant.

Claap

• Powerful screen recorder for teams

• AI-generated meeting notes transcribed into 100+ languages

• AI-powered search, video analytics, integrations with other apps

Pricing: Free Starter; $10/member/month Team

My 2 cents: Claap is the latest Loom alternative with a baked-in AI.

MarketingBlocks

• Create entire marketing campaign from a few prompts

• Generate copy, visuals, videos, voiceovers, brand kits, websites

Pricing: Free 2,000 credits; $57/month Pro 50,000 credits; $67/month Unlimited credits; 2 months free when billed annually

My 2 cents: MarketingBlocks is a jack of all GPT trades yet the master of none. Its best feature is how smooth it makes generating marketing campaigns from start to finish. Literally a couple of prompts and you’ve got a whole campaign before you. Some components may come out better or worse than others but the tool gives you a solid starting point.

PadSplit

• Maximize ROI by renting out rooms for long-term stays

• Simplified screening

• Reduced vacancy costs

• Resident management

Pricing: ~12% platform fee

My 2 cents: PadSplit helps you make an impact and increase rental income. They advertise your listings, find renters, run background checks, and verify income and employment. Your property must meet certain criteria. But if it doesn’t they’ll help you find contractors to make it PadSplit-ready.

Motion Invest

• Buy & sell pre-vetted content websites

• Free professional site valuation

• 97% selling success rate with x35 average site multiple

Pricing: Selling fee based on site’s size; from 5% $500K+ to 20% < $20K

My 2 cents: Content sites are like the vending machines of the internet. They cashflow nicely as long as the niche is profitable and the content is valuable and fresh. Motion Invest makes buying such websites simple and straightforward. They’re somewhat new and have only sold 966 sites. Although, the reviews are positive and plenty.

Paid acquisition crash course - A detailed guide on how to grow your newsletter profitably with ads. When I say detailed, I mean it. It’s actionable, on point, and filled with screenshots. A+

Blog Post SEO Checklist - A short yet value-packed SEO checklist for bloggers desperate to win over the Google gods (and Bing ones, too apparently).

Million-dollar marketing funnel behind Ship 30 For 30 - Not the first time I’m sharing content from or about Ship 30 For 30. This time Dick and Cole share the extremely sticky and profitable yet simple funnel they use to capture, nurture, and convert leads.

The Maker Mindset - Peculiar Attributes of the Modern-Day Inventor - A book by Stephen Campbell about the present-day maker. You’ll learn which attributes contribute to makers’ successes and failures.

Payment providers comparison - A comprehensive comparison of payment processors and providers by Thomas Frank. Easily compare fees and features from nearly all of the major platforms that let creators sell products and services online.

The name of the game is "Guess the number of replies" 🎰

Reply with your best guess of how many people reply to this email in one week. Whoever guesses the correct number wins the prize pool money 💰 The counter resets every week, btw.

If no one guesses the number I'll double the pool and the show will go on. Heads up, I'll be posting the # of active newsletter subscribers on Twitter and LinkedIn occasionally.

If by the year's end, the game is still on I'll donate the money to a charity.

May the odds be ever in your favor!

Current prize pool: $90
