<p>"Justin LoFranco is the founder of the Morning Chalk Up - a daily CrossFit newsletter with many, many thousands of subscribers. Justin has an extensive background in political campaign work - and was able to use his insight and know-how to deliver long-form, text-based content to CrossFitters when everything else seems to be moving in the direction of short, controversial videos.</p> <p><b>Check out more from Justin and the Morning Chalk Up here:</b><ul><li>Instagram: <a href="[ Ссылка ]" target="_blank" rel="noopener">@jaylowone</a>//<a href="[ Ссылка ]" target="_blank" rel="noopener">@morningchalkup</a></li><li>Website: <a href="[ Ссылка ]" target="_blank" rel="noopener">www.morningchalkup.com</a></li><li>Facebook: <a href="[ Ссылка ]" target="_blank" rel="noopener">@morningchalkup</a></li><li>YouTube: <a href="[ Ссылка ]" target="_blank" rel="noopener">@morningchalkup</a></li></ul> <p><b>If you're enjoying the show, the best way to support it is by sharing with your friends.

Let's focus on on doing words right. Not driving clicks.”</li> <li>[18:17] Getting into the weeds with e-mail marketing: segmenting audiences, measuring user behavior and the degree to which the Chalk Up finds these kinds of analytics valuable</li> <li>[24:14] Who are the archetypal readers of the Chalk Up: Every day CrossFit athletes, coaches and affiliate owners, elite athletes, elite coaches, CrossFit industry, and CrossFit media - and how flipping from focusing on the elite to focusing more on the affiliate community resulted in growth.</li> <li>[33:16] Finding the right balance between the aspirational content of the CrossFit Games vs seeing every day people accomplishing something great. “Who you think you are as a brand may not be who your customers think you are.”</li> <li>[39:33] Justin’s background in politics: in political campaigns, you need to get buy-in from every day people and you need to convince them the a candidate is the right person from the job.

Even though the Chalk Up will cover controversial topics, the goal is not to fan the flames of outrage or drive clicks.</li></ul> <p><b>Links and Resources Mentioned</b><ul><li><a href="[ Ссылка ] Sherwood</a><br/></li> <li><a href="[ Ссылка ] Bergeron</a><br/></li> <li><a href="[ Ссылка ] Khalipa</a><br/></li> <li><a href="[ Ссылка ] Khalipa's podcast with Justin LoFranco</a><br/></li> <li><a href="[ Ссылка ] Toomey</a><br/></li> <li><a href="[ Ссылка ] Bridges</a><br/></li> <li><a href="[ Ссылка ]; <li><a href="[ Ссылка ] Games</a><br/></li> <li><a href="[ Ссылка ]; <li><a href="[ Ссылка ] Dawgs</a><br/></li> <li><a href="[ Ссылка ] Loop Strength &amp; Conditioning</a><br/></li> <li><a...
