06:33 “Literally 50% of the money I make on my black Friday, cyber Monday sale comes from the people who opt into the early bird campaign, which is only like 30,000 out of a million on my email list. Those 30,000 people are responsible for half the money, and that’s why I do it”. Ezra Firestone

32:61 “Don’t consider it a done deal. When someone has bought from you one time, we create special messaging for people who bought one time during the sale and communicate with them differently than people who had yet to buy, and we incentivize them to buy a second, third, fourth, or fifth time. We can get about 10% of people who buy once to buy twice during the sale period”. Ezra Firestone.
