And the inevitable question rears its head…<\/p>\n
“Ben, I’m in trouble, I just got laid off and I need to make an income like yesterday. Advice???”<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Y’all must think I’m Miracle Max or something.<\/p>\n
Look, you basically have 3 choices:<\/p>\n
1. You can bend over, put your head firmly between your legs and kiss your ass goodbye.<\/strong><\/p>\n
This is what a lot of people are doing.<\/p>\n
(And it’s kind of a pity…)<\/p>\n
2. Get a time machine and go back a few years when you KNEW you should have been preparing for something like this to happen.<\/strong><\/p>\n
Hey, the ancients knew this.<\/p>\n
Think the 7 years of famine story in the Bible.<\/p>\n
Or the grasshopper & ant fable.<\/p>\n
Or… or… you get the idea.<\/p>\n
What?<\/p>\n
Can’t find a time machine?<\/p>\n
Not even on eBay?<\/p>\n
Then, here’s the 3rd option I’d recommend:<\/p>\n
3. Start building an email list and mailing it.<\/strong><\/p>\n
Yeah, like yesterday<\/em>.<\/p>\n
Don’t SPURN this advice.<\/p>\n
Do it!<\/p>\n
And what I would suggest is figuring out a service you can offer and sell for quick cash flow, while building your own product line on the side.<\/p>\n
What kind of service?<\/p>\n
That’s entirely up to you, my fledgling.<\/p>\n
But think of what skills you have, build a list of people interested in that service (either for hiring or learning it themselves) and start mailing it every day using the Settle sytem of email marketing — www.EmailPlayers.com<\/a><\/strong> — and never let up.<\/p>\n
Relentless follow up is KEY, babycakes.<\/p>\n
And also, stay away from distractions.<\/p>\n
Turn off the TV.<\/p>\n
And quit listening to hype.<\/p>\n
Time to focus.<\/p>\n
Build a list… mail it every day… and get to work.<\/p>\n
And next time…<\/p>\n
Dig your well BEFORE you’re thirsty.<\/p>\n

P.S.<\/strong> This is a timely topic, too.<\/p>\n
Why?<\/p>\n
Because in the March “Email Players” issue, I’m showing you how to not just be a bonified… but BENEFIED… email marketer and writer. Thirty days is all I need to turn even the noobiest of noobs into someone who can pump out profitable emails sometimes in just minutes per day.<\/p>\n
A tall order, you say?<\/p>\n
Nah.<\/p>\n
It’s actually pretty simple.<\/p>\n
No, it’s not easy.<\/p>\n
But, it is simple.<\/p>\n
All you have to do is follow the “commandments” laid out in the next issue and you’ll go from email noob to email player in just 30 days.<\/p>\n
But, be prepared to work hard.<\/p>\n
To tell your loved ones you won’t see much of them for a month.<\/p>\n
And, to make lots of sales.<\/p>\n
(Which has its own problems, but those are the problems I create.)<\/p>\n
