I’m Ian Stanley, Email Copywriter, Entrepreneur, and Stand-Up Comedian.
I’m the Founder of Almost Passive Income. We help people make more money in less time, while actually having more fun doing it.
I’m half English and half American. I’m an entrepreneur and a stand-up comedian, two careers with more in common than you’d think.
I’ve sold over $200,000,000 worth of products online through email marketing. I started my first business at 12, stringing tennis rackets. Since then I’ve built and sold companies, and discovered that plain, simple, personality-driven email is the most powerful marketing tool on earth.
By 2015, email alone was driving over $20 million a year for my businesses. Since then I’ve used that experience to help 10,000+ students and some of the fastest-growing online businesses improve their email marketing results and scale revenue.
Two Types of People. One Big Idea.
