EP 14. Free Content vs Paid Content: What to Give Away (and What to Sell)

If you’ve ever worried, “If I share too much, nobody will pay,” this episode is your full deprogramming. We’re breaking down the real strategic difference between free and paid content, why the “don’t give it away” mindset is scarcity in a trench coat, and how to use free content as a bridge that makes your paid offers feel like the obvious next step.

🔍 IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL UNCOVER:

• Why “they’ll piece my content together for free” is usually fear, not strategy.
• Why people will still pay a high price for more "access" to you.
• The one thing AI won't be able to replicate in 2026 that will massively increase your sales.
• Why you should not be afraid of giving the goods away for free.

🗂️ CASE EVIDENCE FROM THIS FILE:

• "Free and paid content do not serve the same purpose."
• "When people pay, they pay attention."
• "Why are you afraid to give value as if you’re not getting better every single day?"
• "Knowledge is infinite… you can turn one concept into a million content pieces."
