5 IM Deadly Sins
Here are the 5 IM deadly sins! Watch out for them
1. You're not tracking your sales and leads EVERY day
This is the single most important habit you need to develop. I don't care if you haven't done a dime yet (it's probably the reason why...) but, you need to report your daily sales and subscribers on an excel spreadsheet.
Here is mine that you can copy as a model:
It's going to take you 2 minutes, but it could change your business
2. You don't feel like you're being ripped off with the product you're selling
What I mean by that is that you feel you have been given so much value at a low price so as to almost feel like you're being ripped of. Whether it's a $7, $37 or $147, your customers must feel they had at least 10 times worth value for their price.
You'll feel more confident and congruent promoting your stuff because you know on the sub-conscious level that you're over-delivering.
3. You're not building a list
Shift your focus from "making money online" to "building a list in a targeted market". This is the fastest and most profitable way to start. You need:
A. A download page where you're able to give something of value (report, audio or video)
B. An account with Aweber.com
C. An opt-in page with headlines and your opt-in window
TADAM! You're in business.
Then do whatever it takes to drive traffic to this webpage.
All my businesses are based on the same principle. For example, one of my businesses is a self-esteem and confidence coaching practice. It's only an opt-in page where I give a free report. As soon as I got a few hundred subscribers, I made them an offer for a coaching program and got 10 clients on board for $147 a month!
4. You continually WHINE about the fact of not making money online
First, re-read sin #3 and then decide TODAY that you're going to stop whining and just take action with FAITH. Even when I was broke, I had an unshakable faith in the fact that I would be successful. Can you ever imagine Bill Gates, Tony Robbins or Oprah whining?
ALL MY LIFE I've lived by Dale Carnegie's principle #1:
Don't criticize, condemn or complain.
5. You're afraid to lose money
There're only two emotions in life: LOVE and FEAR.
If your fear of losing money is greater than your love for success then you're finished. Let me tell you something: YOU'RE GOING TO LOSE MONEY ALONG THE WAY. PERIOD. I still do myself. Because, guess what? You'll make mistakes! It's just being human. The fear of losing money will paralyze you forever if you don't conquer it. Remember that as an online entrepreneur, you significantly take FAR LESS risk than our peers in the brick and mortar business. It's okay to lose money but, NEVER lose the learning.
