The year was 2012, and I woke up one August morning to an email from a friend that said: “Want to fly to NYC for free and go to a bunch of fashion week events?” If you know me, you know I don’t belong within 100 yards of any type of “fashion” event, but how […]
Product Reviews: Essential Tools for Business and Life

Sumo Review: The Easiest Way for Bloggers to Improve Their Marketing
Sign up for Sumo and take the marketing on your website to another level. A couple years ago I found myself in a blog rut. Traffic was steady, our content was good, and we had a solid stream of new members joining Location Rebel Academy. But there was one thing missing. There was one big […]
Bluffworks Review: The Best Travel Pants and Shirt On the Market?
When I think of travel pants, the first thing that comes to mind is an older gentleman in cargo pants that zip off into shorts. It’s the ultimate kiss of death when it comes to fashion. While I’m far from the most fashionable person in the world, I draw the line at zip-off khakis. No matter how […]
ConvertKit Review 2018: Why I Switched from Aweber to ConvertKit
Well, I finally did it. I switched my email provider from Aweber to ConvertKit. I’ve been on Aweber for over 5 years – pretty much ever since I started blogging. And while it’s been good to me up until this point, I don’t feel like it’s evolving with the times very well. I feel like […]
Rainmaker Platform Review: The Best Way to Build a Membership Site in 2015
Check out the Rainmaker Platform here. About 4 years ago I began creating my first full-fledged, massive membership site.

How Dwolla Has Made Me Over $500 in 6 Months
This post was inspired by something my buddy Max wrote last week. I am in no way affiliated with Dwolla, and don’t get anything for writing this post. By now I think there’s pretty widespread consensus that it’s time for a legitimate competitor to Paypal to emerge. In 2000 when Paypal saw a huge rise […]
Why Every Blogger Should Have Final Cut Pro X
If you’ve been paying any attention to the tech world lately you’ve probably heard about the debacle that is Final Cut Pro X. For those of you who don’t know, FCP has been the defacto standard for professional video editors over the last few years, and Apple just released the newest version of it. The […]
Travel Hacking Cartel Review for 2018
Check out the Travel Hacking Cartel For a number of years I worked with Chris Guillebeau as his affiliate manager. I helped him market and promote all of his products including the Unconventional Guides, as well as the Travel Hacking Cartel. There were a few years there where THC was a little lackluster. The updates […]
