Welcome to Love Line for Business' weekly newsletter with thoughts, links and suggestions you can consume in little more than a minute.



In the Flow


If you haven't noticed, Greg and I are getting ready to launch Regular Joe Coffee.


We're not going to be subtle about it.


In fact, as Greg so elegantly put words in my mouth, until the end of the month, we're probably going to carpet bomb you with stuff about Regular Joe Coffee.


10 brave volunteers are putting our roast through it's paces right now so that we'll all know exactly how it tastes.


We start taking sales on Monday.


And it all started with a poop joke which led us to understand that what we really want to do is help you with your morning routine.


Make it regular, predictable, dependable.


That's why we're starting with coffee.


From idea to taking a sale, it's probably been about 6 weeks.


We weren't always this fast.


It's taken practice to become quick at the draw.


Practice and a plan, like the one laid out in 12 months to a Million.


We're just following the plan.

In the Toolbox


You'll have to excuse me for the Nir Eyal binge lately. I swear it's not because we're both Israelis. It's like when you buy a new car, you suddenly see it everywhere.


My name is Bram and I'm a to do list addict.


I've used them to get a lot done. Some of which was great. Much of which keeps me really busy.


The framework Eyal describes in this article for switching from lists to scheduling time for particular activities feels liberating.


I'll try it for a couple of weeks and let you know how it went.



Here to always stimulate your bottom line,


Bram (& Greg)
