New Year, new gym guilt, and somehow that turns into a surprisingly useful marketing trick: people do what you literally tell them to do. Alongside Jay Schwedelson and Daniel Murray, this Bathroom Break gets into simple, slightly annoying-to-admit tactics that boost opens, saves, and shares when you’re direct about the action you want.

Best Moments:
(01:30) Jay admits he times the bench press so nobody sees how weak he is
(02:23) Daniel’s all-time max bench press gets revealed, and it’s absurd
(03:00) The “tell people what to do” tactic that works across email, social, and ads
(03:17) “Screenshot this and send to your team” as a sneaky share trigger
(04:30) “Open this email” at the start of a subject line can lift opens by about 15%
(05:00) Adding “save this post” in LinkedIn copy boosts saves in the analytics
