I want to start focusing on the achievements that all my instructors had, because together we have brought amazing results from 2012 until now in 2025, using exactly the tactics, theory and methods that we teach inside Education Cloud PLUS.
I think this truly sets us apart from other gurus, because we’ve done everything ourselves and we know that it works.
Also, I want to show people that me and all the other instructors are spending a lot of time and thought and we are carefully hand crafting the materials and methods that we present. I want them to see our craftsmanship, master, blood, sweat and tears in creating these courses, because these are the things that have lead us to success. SO we take great care in how we present and showcase our teachings. This is not a run-of-the-mill random content to get leads. This is not AI-generated stuff that has been preached all over all the way before. We are showing the angles and the directions that worked for us, and it’s a lot of effort that we’re placing into making all of this happen.
I want the previous 3 paragraphs to be turned into powerful message pillars in our branding of Education Cloud PLUS. Help me make it happen and give me 10 ideas for content in each individual message pillar.

you are a professional Growth Hacker and retargeting expert with deep focus on Facebook ads and you’ve helped countless agencies use Facebook Pixel for very advanced retargeting efforts for their clients.
I have a Facebook pixel placed on many sites where our ideal audience at AISQ hangs out. How can I start retargeting campaigns based on that Facebook pixel to make sure that Facebook keeps sending them ads about AISQ.com non-stop, so the members who were pixeled will see our ads over and over again on Facebook and Instagram?

Two years after the New York Times wondered if we were “past peak newsletter,” the category continues to grow—and newsletter writers are getting more tools to bring eager advertisers on board.
Late last week, Beehiiv, a newsletter platform for creators, introduced a new tool that will let its users manage relationships with advertisers, giving newsletter creators the ability to insert ads directly into their newsletters, set rate cards, coordinate inventory, and send invoices.
The tool, called Direct Sponsorships, will allow publishers to sell their own inventory, Tyler Denk, Beehiiv’s co-founder and CEO, told Marketing Brew, and costs $10 for every ad placement. Denk said the tools are aimed at giving creators additional revenue options beyond subscriptions, which many do using platforms like Substack, a Beehiiv rival.
The tool is the latest new option to roll out in the big business of newsletters.
Advertisers have begun to embrace newsletters on Substack, which said last week that it had surpassed 5 million paid subscriptions, with one marketing exec previously telling Marketing Brew that newsletters are an attractive place since social media platforms have “become overloaded.” According to a Morning Brew Inc. survey of marketing industry decision-makers conducted in January, 51% said email marketing was an investment priority in 2025.
It hasn’t been seamless, especially for newsletters that don’t have the backing of a sales team. In January, the Wall Street Journal reported that some newsletter creators have finalized deals with Venmo and managed partnerships through Google Docs as they navigate ad-hoc advertising arrangements.
Beehiiv’s Direct Sponsorship tool aims to change that for its slate of creators.
“More people can make money by putting an ad that is relevant to their audience in their newsletter than charging $5, $10, $20 per month for their content,” Denk said. “It takes very differentiated content to be able to charge for it.”
