The Extra Mile begins
🚧 "It is never crowded along the extra mile."
Wait - you want to take me for an extra mile? In a world full of shortcuts?
Yes, I do.
There's one simple reason: “It's never crowded along the extra mile.”
So, welcome to my Extra Mile newsletter!
I’m Tino. If you're reading this, you likely know already.
I've been building brands, businesses, and communities for the past 20 years.
Oh God… When I was younger and someone said something had happened 20 years ago, I thought that person must be so old… It sometimes does feel like several lifetimes. Everything flows a little too quickly, doesn't it?
But that's okay! The fast lane can be fun, especially if you have your speed under control.
My newly re-launched newsletter is here to help you speed up, but also to slow down. I’ll explore some shortcuts, so you have enough energy for the extra mile(s).
The goal is to write a “quick read” newsletter at least once a week.
I’ll experiment with other formats later on, like the beloved “weekend tips” you might remember.
My book FORBIDDEN was released exactly two years ago. I’ve realized how much I miss writing.
So, I’m dusting off my keyboard.
The topics? They remain the same:
Entrepreneurship.
Building brands and communities.
Creativity and storytelling.
Biohacking and lifehacking.
The future and Web3.
We haven't “seen” each other for some time. If your life has changed and there's no room for me in your inbox, feel free to hit the “unsubscribe” button. I'll be sad, but I'll understand. I want to write for those who are interested in what I have to say, for those who ride the same wave as me.
I'm not here to count the number of subscribers. I'm here to bring you added value.
My “Extra Mile” newsletter is for you if you...
...are an entrepreneur or have an idea for a project of your own.
...work in the creative industry and like to do things differently.
...have (or dream of having) your own brand - of anything.
...are building a community of loyal fans.
...think that 24-hour days are a bit too short.
...feel you’re missing the train with AI, blockchain, and Web3.
However, this newsletter might not be for you if you…
...are searching for a get-rich-quick shortcut without lifting a finger.
…are more interested in alien conspiracies than entrepreneurship.
...enjoy arguments in Facebook comments.
...think that success is mostly about luck.
But we are lucky. Lucky to be born in this wild, weird, and exciting period of time.
There has never been more information available. It's both amazing and terrible at the same time.
I’m incredibly grateful that you've decided to receive one more email a week in your mailbox.
We’re on this journey together. Let's have some fun along the extra mile.
Carpe Diem,
Tino
