A lamentation for the ages:
Simply put, I don’t have the money this month. I scrambled to make it, but I wasn’t able to make it happen. Yeah, I’m very aware – if I don’t do it this time, I won’t be allowed to sign up again next month. I don’t like it much, but hey – your game, your rules. Thanks for the goodies I’ve gotten so far from the newsletter – I’ve gotten my money’s worth.
I have to disagree.
If he couldn’t figure out the daunting task of making — at bare minimum — $3.23 per day with the info, I daresay he did NOT get his money’s worth.
The irony truly writes itself sometimes.
And, it’s a supreme example of why my “no coming back” rule for “Email Players” exists.
Contrast the above with these apples:
My pal Shane Hunter once used info I teach to launch a successful consulting business while laying in excruciating pain after major back surgery in a hospital bed. One of my subscribers mailed me back in December to say he had just been diagnosed with terminal cancer, but to keep sending the newsletter to him anyway and to check in with him in a few months just in case (last I heard he is still fighting, btw). Another of my customers is blind to the point someone has to read my issues and books to him, and still manages to implement.
And so on, and so forth.
In case the point isn’t obvious:
Whatever someone’s excuse is, it ain’t that they “can’t” it’s that they “won’t.”
These blokes who quit while insisting they get so much “value” out of what I teach don’t even have the foresight to take advantage of the perk they get to ask me questions via email before curling up into a fetal position and giving up.
i.e., they don’t even try, they just roll over.
Thus, my no-coming-back policy.
Fortunately, there is a solution for all this for those with foresight & and a backbone.
And to explain this solution, I refer you to a scene in the movie “The Wolf Of Wall Street” where Jordan Belfort is giving his salesmen a pep talk that goes perfectly with the times. A scene your pal, “The Count of Commerce”, elBenbo is hereby going to shamelessly paraphrase, with said simple solution almost everyone agrees with, but hardly anyone ever gets around to acting on.
Here it goes:
“Are you behind on your credit card bills? Good. Turn on your computer and start writing emails. Is your landlord ready to evict you? Good. Shut off Facebook for 15 minutes and start writing emails. Does your girlfriend think you’re a worthless loser? Good. Quit being a panytwaist and start writing emails! I want you to deal with your problems, by becoming flush with new business! All you have to do today …is turn on your computer, and type the kind of emails that I teach you in ‘Email Players’.”
If someone can’t do that?
Let ‘em go haunt Facebook or whatever it is they do to get the warm & fuzzies.
All right, let’s move on to the good stuff:
The upcoming May “Email Players” is by far the most valuable I’ve written to date. It’s about using, finding, and interfacing with your own media platforms. Do it right, and it takes away a lot of business & financial uncertainty. It can also add a lot more rupees to your piggy bank, too. And, best of all, again if you do it right… it can position you high above all your wannabe competitors, as they fold because they are too lazy, too unmotivated, or simply too low IQ (low IQ as far as marketing & business goes… not literally low IQ on an intelligence test — let the outrage culture sob sisters take note) to write an email each day, to a list of receptive leads they are consistently building, selling something that can improve their lives.
It ain’t rocket science.
But at the same time, that business ain’t gonna build itself…
