Booked By Friday.

I've started a weekly email series called Booked By Friday. It lands every Sunday with one specific action you can take that week to land a paid booking by Friday. From people already in your world, not from chasing strangers.

Each email gives you the action and the reason it works. Some weeks the action is a single email. Other weeks it's a five-day experiment, or a question to answer before you send anything. The shape changes. The promise doesn't. One paid booking by Friday from someone who already knows your name.

If you sell services and you've got past clients sitting somewhere in your inbox or invoicing tool who haven't heard from you lately, that's who it's for.

Why I'm not auto-adding you

You have to opt in.

I could have moved you across automatically. I'm not going to. The Sunday email is going to land in your inbox every week and ask you to do something specific that week. The people who get the most out of it are the ones who chose to be there.

If a Sunday email about taking one specific sales action this week sounds like more than you want from me, opt out by doing nothing. You'll keep getting the emails I already send you. Nothing changes. If it sounds like the kind of thing you want in your inbox, click the button below.

Two minutes. Then Sunday.

Pop your email in at the link below. The first Booked By Friday email lands the next Sunday and every Sunday after that. One specific action a week. Unsubscribe link at the bottom of every email if it stops being useful, no hard feelings.

Send me Sunday's email →

See you Sunday if you're in.

P.S. The link is zoedew.com/booked if the button doesn't render. Same place either way.

I speak too fast and I'm neurodivergent

I speak too fast and I'm neurodivergent. "The thing you've been editing out is probably the thing the right people are waiting for." I started putting a slide at the beginning of my presentations that says exactly that. I speak too fast. I'm neurodivergent, for me that's ADHD and autism, which means I struggle to look at the camera, I need to read my notes, and once I get going I'm not stopping so try and keep up. If any of that's a problem, watch me on replay, I really won't be offended. I...

I can't use any of it

Three years, four million. I walked away and left all the proof behind. "The proof you can't package is still proof." I spent three years taking a business from just under a million to four million a year. I know exactly what I did. That was me. And I can't use any of it. I can't name it, I can't cite it, I can't reference it. I walked away from that situation and I left the proof behind. So when I started Falling Forwards I had this weird thing where I knew exactly what I was capable of and...

The content isn't you.

You know the version that lands on calls. That one isn't in your emails. "Who are you actually writing for?" You know that thing that happens in a call when someone asks you a question and you just... answer it? No build up, no thinking about how it's going to land, you just say the thing you actually think. And then they message you two days later and say "I've been thinking about that for weeks." That's the version of you that makes people buy. And it's almost never the version that makes...
