How I predicted selling Hush for $48M 💰

Hello newsletter fam and happy Wednesday!

I just landed in Paris to watch the French Open…

It’s my first time here so I’m open to any recs…

Send me a reply with where I should eat, what I should do, and what I should see I want to do it all!!!

BTW: I’ve been advocating like crazy on my Instagram about posting on LinkedIn. 

I am in Paris after being invited to watch the French Open by somebody I met on Linkedin!! just from posting regularly. 

If you're a business owner and looking for the best social media platform to network on…

Then you NEED to be active about building your personal brand through Linkedin.

 Hit me up if you have any questions on how to get started.

Also, it's almost the end of May…

And we're already about to be halfway through 2024!

So I hope you guys are finishing this month strong. 

Here were my goals for this month:

- Get this newsletter to 10k subs (currently at 9,500) Sharing this with somebody who would gain value would mean the world to me. Might do a huge Hush giveaway at 10k..; ;) 

- Work out/break a sweat every single day.

- Get Founders Club to 250 members. We just passed 200 and its growing quickly!

-  Make room in my schedule for 1 more consulting client. 

Let me know what your goals are for next month.

I'd love to hear from you :)

Speaking of goals…

You probably clicked on this email to hear how I predicted the success of Hush…

And you may be thinking I am secretly a wizard who can shape the future.

Sadly I am not a wizard… 🧙🏻‍♂️ 

But, over the years I learned a powerful "method" which has helped me achieve my goals. 

It's not quite magic, but it feels like it sometimes! ✨

And to be honest, It's something I usually don't tell many people about.…

But I want to share it with you guys because I know if done right, it can be extremely beneficial to the success of your business and life goals.  

Which is something I'm passionate about, helping Founders succeed.

So, to get started with this edition of In Bed With Aaron… 

Let me take you back (as per usual) to the early days of Hush. 

From day one, my co-founder Lior and I were crystal clear about our vision… 

We knew exactly how much we wanted to sell the company for…

And even who we wanted to sell it to.

So, 3-4 times a week, I would sit down and write out my future as if it had already happened. 

I'd close my eyes and visualize every detail, and truly embrace how it would FEEL to sell the business.  

I'd write things like,

"I'm walking down Midtown, going to grab lunch with my gf, feeling so proud of what we've built. My parents are coming to visit soon, and I can't wait to surprise my mom with her dream car for her 60th birthday."

(I found this OLD notebook when cleaning out my room.)

The key was to make it as vivid and specific as possible, really diving into the emotions of it all.

And you know what? 

It worked. We ended up selling Hush for $48 million to Sleep Country, just like we had scripted. 

Now, I know what you might be thinking… 

"That's great for you Aaron, but how does this help me?"

Well, here's the thing: Scripting isn't just about predicting the future. It's about getting laser-focused on your goals and training your mind to believe they're possible.  

When you write out your future in vivid detail…

You start to see opportunities you might have missed before… 

You start to take actions that align with your vision…

And bit by bit, you start to turn that script into reality.

It's not always easy, and it definitely takes practice. 

But I've seen the POWER of scripting work time and time again in my own life…

And I truly believe it can be a game-changer for anyone who's willing to give it a try.

So if you're feeling inspired, give it a shot! 

Set aside 10-15 minutes a day to close your eyes and envision what you want to achieve, whether it's in your business or your personal life. 

Write it down in vivid detail, really tapping into the emotions of it all…

And then, start taking small actions each day to bring that vision to life.

Who knows? Maybe one day, you'll be the one emailing your list about how you manifested your own massive success. 😉

And if journaling is not your thing, no worries! 

I’ve met people who are able to script out their future in their minds… 

They are constantly reminding themselves of their goals, what their life is going to look like the in future, and how it will feel. 

At the end of the day…

We're all on our own journeys. 

The important thing is to keep chasing those big dreams, however, you choose to do it.

And either way, I'll always be here rooting for you! 

Keep crushin' it…

- Aaron <3
