Voice-first writing
Pull out your phone and rant for 2 minutes
Hey,
Stop staring at the blank page. Pull out your phone and rant for 2 minutes instead.
I discovered this by accident.
Had to write a sales page. Couldn't start. Called a friend to complain about the project. Explained exactly what I was selling and why people needed it.
Friend stopped me. "Dude. You just wrote your entire page."
He was right. The voice memo had everything. The problem. The solution. The personality.
Talking beats typing (most times).
Speaking bypasses your internal editor. That annoying voice saying "this sounds dumb"? Can't keep up when you're talking.
You naturally explain things like a human. No jargon. No fancy words. Just you telling someone why this thing matters.
The energy comes through. Excitement. Frustration. Whatever you actually feel about your offer.
Try it right now:
Open voice memos
Pretend you're explaining your offer to a skeptical friend
Rant for 2 minutes straight (no stopping)
Transcribe it
Clean up the mess
Your first draft is done. Yeah, it'll need editing. But you've got words on the page and they sound like you.
Hope this helped!
