Dont Be Broke This Season!! - Free Audio** Make M-O-N-E-Y - And Give The Gift Of Opportunity!

46 replies
This is my annual altrusitic warrior style "You can make offline money from nothing, no matter where you are starting from " contribution. Only "this year" Its also about giving the gift of opportunity.

Yes 2011 Warrior Forum Newby- This is for you.

Here's The Audio

Sit down, read, listen, whatever... you will learn that its never too early to make money - Even TODAY!

After all, we arent here to talk about philosophy right?

This is the great Warrior Forum, and truly great it is indeed.

This is a forum where people come, especially at this time of year, to learn how they can make M-O-N-E-Y!

To learn ways to change their lives and financial futures for the better by learning about the opportunities that exist on the new frontier.

For all of you guys who appreciated the one last year- Here goes nothing!

I'm going to pretend that you are me right now... back when I first learned about offline marketing years ago.

I didn't even have a computer. I didn't have the internet. Barely knew what it was... BUT... (remember this) "Someone else DID know about websites, and they DID know about the internet, and they SOLD a website product".

I met that person at a time when I was ignorant, and needed opportunity, and they told me, "You don't have to know how to build websites... all you have to do is memorize the features and benefits of the package I sell...".

He gave me some sheets of basic information about the websites he sold, and he gave me a script to say on the phone...

I was able to sell websites, without knowing anything about the internet...without knowing anything about computers... All I knew was that we sold a 2 page site on a top online directory that was keyword optimized and submitted to all the major search engines like yahoo, excite and hotbot... and it included_ and ________...".

I would say that pitch verbatim, and I had never even been on yahoo, I didn't even know the meaning of the things I was saying, but it was okay, I could say the script and it worked if you said it to enough people.

If I couldn't answer a question I would say "Im just a salesperson, but I can get that answer from one of our designer and call you back with the answer if you like after our call...like I was saying...", and I would go back into my script...and every now and then someone said YES.

This guy made millions of dollars that year off people who were just as ignorant as me, but they could quote the features and benefits of our product on the phone.

Later when I learned that you did not have to work for someone else to sell websites...

I could hire a web designer for $100.00 per site or even LESS ... I got the idea that I could sell websites for myself, instead of selling them for $10.00 per hour at a job... I discovered that I could make hundreds of dollars per sale.

I still didn't need to know anything about web design... I just hired people who did. Like the guys in the wso section here at the warrior forum offering quality services for dirt cheap.

I still didn't need to know about optimization, because I hired web designers who optimized everything...

I didnt even have to have money upfront, because I paid them out of the checks customers would write me.

These web designers would gladly build sites for $100 that I could sell for MANY hundreds of dollars profit. And they were glad to do it, because they were out of work and didn't have business and didn't know how to sell... I gave them a paycheck for doing what they loved by selling websites.

If I sold 3 sites per week and they made $300, that was WAAAY better than what they made at home playing dungeons and dragons and not having any websites to work on.

So my sales were a blessing to them too, even though I only paid them a percentage and made alot of profit from their websites.

Ten years, and hundreds of thousands of dollars later... Im still fairly ignorant when it comes to being internet savvy, but as long as someone else I know "is", I can sell a website...or I can sell an seo service, or an SMS marketing service, or a mobile site service, or facebook pages...or whatever it is.

I can sell it, and I don't have to know anything about it beyond the features and benefits of whatever package Im selling.

The first place I found on the internet was the warrior forum, and I have learned most everything I know right here. But I promise you, that was NOTHING when I started selling. I didnt know anything but how to say the script the guy handed me.

Hey, I don't know how to build cars either, but I could probably learn how to sell one. So could you.

If you dont have anything to sell there are a ton of people here on the WF who provide web design services, and they provide SEO services, and mobile marketing services...

You can go to the Warriors for Hire Section and Find them right now...
You are swimming in a pool of people who want to make money with you... If you don't have anything to sell they will create it for you cheaply... If you don't have a company image or website, they will let you use their work samples for demonstrating...

Whats stopping you from contacting one of these SEO services here and saying "If you give me some material about your package I would like to make money creating customers for your services...

You can even say "I want to do it in my own name so the customer thinks they are MY services from my company".

Trust me, people here will work with you if you can produce customers.

Why are you struggling to learn instead of jumping in and making money and learning as you go...?

You don't need anything but a friend who provides a service you can profit on... and a list of features and benefits...

Then all you have to do is walk door to door or call people on the phone and tell them about your friends service.

Did you know that you can start from NOWHERE- And Make Thousands of Dollar in Between Now and Christmas if you start TODAY?

Im here to tell you- YOU CAN!

Im telling you that you ABSOLUTELY can. I have, and so have many others here.

This is my seasonal "Any newby can make money" post. Any newby can make thousands of dollars before Christmas this year, if they set their mind to it.

Even YOU, and the warrior forum is the BEST PLACE IN THE WORLD to start!

Here is a basic plan... Find someone who will build a website package for $200.00 (There are a ton of people here) and go out and sell it for $699

Do 5 of those in the next 6 weeks and you will make $2000 before christmas.

Can you do it?

Yup. You can do it in 2-4 hours per day if you focus... you can even do more than that.

Wnaa double your profits? Sell the site for $999 instead. Now if you sell 5 you have made $4,000 profit.

Do that for twelve months... Thats just selling 1.25 websites per week... add hosting and maintenance fees, and you just made $50,000 your first year.

Lets break it down...

A: Thats selling 1 website per week basically.

B: You can set two appointments per day in a 2 hour cold calling session.

C: Lets lowball it, and say that working 10 hours per week on the phone (2 hours per day) you could set 8 appointments with interested prospects... Lets say one of those days you dont even set ANY, or you skip work... lol

D: Do you think if you had 8 appointments per week with people who are interested in websites that you could even sell 2 of them?

Thats even more than we projected here... At that rate you make DOUBLE what I suggested.

Could you even sell one?

Isnt that worth it?

So with running your appointments for another 2 hours per day... lets say you are working 20 full hours per week, and making 2 sales...

Do you see why theres no reason to be broke this holiday season?

There isnt, and I am living proof.

Forget not knowing html, forget building homestead sites, or wordpress sites... There are a ton of people here that need work,

You never know, the opportunity you create may save someone elses livelihood too! (Like an out of work web designer).

Isnt that another great reason to be an opportunity creator? Your own prosperity creates prosperity for others, thats one o0f the best parts is hiring others and creating opportunity for those who need it!

If you had no idea you could make money before... Even from your VERY FIRST DAY AS A WARRIOR - You can follow this plan and do it NOW!

The Web designers and SEO people are waiting on you, they are hoping you make a sale so you can hire them and send some work their way. In some countries $100 will literally CHANGE SOMEONES LIFE!

While you are changing your life, you can also change the lives of others this Holiday season and make their season worth while too!

Whew, talk about giving!

You want to give a gift?

Use your tenacity- to give someone in need the gift of OPPORTUNITY!

Thats the best gift of all!

I hope someone reads this and runs with it.

Sincerely,
Your bonifide "Warrior To The Bone" friend,
-JD

    Thank you for your very inspiring words John. Truly, it's wonderful to be reminded of the possibilities.

    And the truth is, there's enough work (more than enough) out there for all of us. And we have skills to help others.

    To me? It's so nice to hear you talk about movement. Movement beats meditation as I think I heard Dan Kennedy say. Might not have been his, but the point stands.

    We get what we focus on. And when I wonder if some of my new ventures aren't going as quick as I'd like, I think of the kind of stuff you're talking about.

    And it helps. (It should wake up all of us.)

    The guys making money are too busy making money to care about little things. They don't get side-railed. They just "do". They just move and correct any errors as they go.

    Thanks John. Great stuff...

    No prob... I think the exciting part of it too is that when you are in movement - it can affect others lives as well.

    There are a bunch of guys looking to use their skills, and who want to feed their families with their webdesign talent, but they dont know how to sell.

    You can provide opportunity for them... and yourself. Its a double home run... the karma just goes crazy viral when you integrate a way to provide for others as well.

    All you have to have is a willingness to go tell people about the service, and everybody wins.

    You and I never know how big of an impact one of these little $60.00 graphics jobs might have on someone elses life.

    Always good stuff John - classic.

    Newbies jumping into this space needed to be reminded that it's possible, but like anything they do, offline or online, they need to remember to focus on that one task and make it profitable for them.

    I always tell my sales reps one word; one singular word that makes the difference between making a good living or just getting by:

    CONSISTENCY.

    If you come in and DO IT, day in and day out, you'll make money. I find that most sales reps and humans in general don't like to work. Lately, everyone has been looking for a hand-out and not looking to work.

    If they put in the time, it will be fruitful. It's that simple.

    John Durham, can I ask how you generate the leads for cold calling?

    I just look for local businesses and see if their site needs fixing or how I could fix it, but that is extremely time consuming.

      Depends.

      If I am just targeting small business owners , lets say "retailers"...with 5 employees or less I would just log into our software at TMF, set my criteria, and target some market...of diners or barbor shops or whatever... guitar stores...

      But if I was targeting Chiropractors. I would go to some online Chiropractor directory where they charged Chiropractors $1,000 per month... and I would call all of those chiropractors and design my pitch around some angle on what they are already doing...and offer them a better price. Also, you already know someone else got through to them, so you can too.

      In fact (I should charge for this nugget)
      , I would give the top guy in each category on that site a free web page, just so I could tell all of his competitors that I worked with him...they all know who the guy is if he is on top, and they are paying that much to be on the site.

      Really, your pitch, list, approach all depend on your offer structure, and your business model...

      To work the plan Im revealing in THIS thread though, you could use the yellow pages if you want and just call 100 numbers... pick a niche and rock.

      Honestly, calling from the yellow pages works for ANYTHING you are selling... Its about getting in there and doing it.

      Hope this helps.

    Again, great message and audio. Not to mention now I'm famous hehe...

    My ears perked up at that and it certainly got my attention. And of course, well...fine, fine, fine...I'll let you get me leads for shared profits. Twist my arm why don't you .

    But seriously, I use to know two Negative Nelly's (don't we all?) that were always gossiping, wasting time and putting down others' efforts to get ahead.

    I've long since detached myself from them--although it was because I moved. But I would have done so anyway. You're on the opposite end John, and the folks here (including myself) certainly appreciate it very much. And it's obvious with you it's not from lack of experience.

    I was speaking to my brother-in-law last week and he was telling me about his days selling over the phone. He worked with a cell phone company (I believe). Anyhow, he was talking about how he wasn't very aggressive and didn't have is heart into it that much in the first few weeks (although he says he never "loved it either) yet he made sales.

    He said without a doubt that if someone just spends a few hours on the phone a day, they will "no doubt make some sales".

    He said, "if a dummy like me can do it, anyone can". Of course, I'm married to his sister so maybe he's hinting that the couch is shaped to my rear end too much and I need to start buying her more flowers. Hmm....

    Anyway, I trust him completely. And it squares so much with what you and others have said. However, it easy for me to talk about. I'd like to be able to say it myself. (I like to "hide" behind other methods of generating clients...for now.) Great thread.

    So I went looking for "Warriors for hire" and had to really look twice before I found it. It is listed as a sub-forum under "Warrior Products & Services", then click on "Warriors for Hire". Or, click the link below

    http://warriorforum/warriors-hire/

    Don't know if it would be allowed (In spirit of the Seasons) for warriors to say they would like to work together with newbies in this thread? If not allowed, just click the link above.

    Or, would one dare to be as bold as to actually PM a warrior that we would like to work with? Just a thought....Eva

    @ Nathan

    Cold calling is like working out. I can do it for 60 days straight and total transform my whole physique...

    But I do it for 60 days, then I dont do it again for two years.

    Working out is the ONLY way to a strong physique... We all know it. Still we buy Hollywood diets and extreme fat loss pills and things you wrap around your midsection trying to shock your way to great abs...lol

    Even though we all know the only way to do it.

    We all see the benefits of being in shape all around us... EVERYONE wants a strong physique (Dont lie)...

    Here's the clincher...

    EVERYONE KNOWS HOW TO GET IT!!! Lol

    We KNOW how to get what we want!

    We just dont want to work out. lol

    Likewise; We all know how to make money... P

    We all know how to get it... Like, a perfect mphysique- Only a few will HAVE IT in spite of that.

    Wouldnt you agree that its really a personal choice...not really about lack of resources?

    The wisdom of the ages is true that the sale is made in the mind of the salesman, and success is about determination to succeed at your objectives, whatever they are.

    If they are just "to find a way to make some money". You got one right here on this thread.

    Lovin this thread.

    Your brother in law sounds like me, because we are quoting the same age old principles that never change and transcend every new movement or fad or generation.

    Sales is sales, it works off of principles that never change. Just like getting in shape.

    Hi

    I decided to go and do a little searching to find some web designers that are advertising in the Warriors for Hire section to make it easy for anybody looking for designers to help them implement John's plan.

    I chose those that were newbies on the forum, did not have many replies, had great samples and were not on the first page. Those guys could probably not afford the bump back to the first page.

    These are a few that I found.

      Thanks Diana... Nice examples.

      I dont think this is about plugging really, I think its about making people aware of the resources they have here at the warrior forum, and another angle on the opportunities that exist here. A whole other world of opportunity outside of the WSO section which is huge opportunity itself.

      Im sure the mods will make their own judgements... on whether they think we are spamming or any individual is.

      On my end, I am so inspired by this thread. last night I kinda threw this audio up off the cuff, but it inspired me to make my forum newsletters into audios... to create more value.

      I feel great about that.

    Here's an easy way to get started. Call a friend to get into talking mode. Explain to your friend how you are going to make a lot of money by Christmas. Tell her that you are going to sell one web site a day at $699 and your profit willl be $600. Explain your plan in detail.

    At this point, you're talkative and you have a clearly stated plan. Your mind is probably planning your first trip to the mall for gifts.

    Go to those yellow pages and smile through every call you make because it's going to be a great Christmas.

    Motivating post, John Durham. Old school trumps again.

      Thanks. Excellent advice on attitude, and generating energy for a good session BTW. Awesome.

      BTW. on "Old school" lol.

      Isnt having a forum,a mailing letter, 2700 online students, 100 affiliates, being a senior warrior member, and having made tens of thousands of dollars creating your own software (outsourcing the work) considered kind of new school? Lol.

      ... I ask that for the sake of "example".

      Age old success principles serve you in ALL times... whether you use them on the internet, or even if the internet went down tomorrow afternoon!

      Its not about the avenue itself... Its about WHAT MAKES PEOPLE BUY!

      Just ask any frustrated SEO expert who cant generate customers...

      The principles that make people buy never change and translate whether its a phone call or an ad in the national inquirer.


      This is good education.

      I think I need to re asses what businesses I target. Hopefully tomorrow I can start to make some money.

      You can do it. You have to decide ahead of time that you intend to get business. Its not about counting 60 calls so much... Its about saying "Im going to call until i find someone to give me business".... Like Amir, Like Steve, Like myself...

      Its funny when you shift to that attitude how this invisible thing kicks in, a certain confidence...

      Otherwise people can read that you are just 'trying" this... dont ask me how.

      You have to go in with the attitude that you arent coming out without progress... Even if you are marketing ONLINE... the same principles will apply.

      Last year I was trying to generate an awareness about an online product I was promoting... and I had to go back to the drawing board 5 times before the market "took to it".

      It would have been easy to say "Well, this one was a flop...", especially after the second or third try...

      I had determined ahead of time that I was going to sell it though... and so I did... and I made 11k the following month from that endeavor, but at first I couldnt start a fire to save my life no matter what I tried.

      Its not about any given hour going just the way I want it to... Its about the overall principles that the "sale is made in the mind of the salesman". He is determined to hit his objective.

      Go in and say "Im going to set a appointment come hell or high water LOOK OUT WORLD"!

      "If other people can do it, then so can I"!!

      Success is always about the individuals determination. The fact that you are coming back for more says you have enough!

    This, my friend is what you just did in helping so many people who are faced with fears of lack or failure. I commend you good sir for your help in aiding your fellow man on the field of person battle in achievement.

      ok, second reply to this thread.
      I met a gentlman a while ago that needed a website. Read this thread and dowloaded the audio onto my mp3 player and listened to it in the car for a few days (drove my daughter crazy.)

      I then called him and set up an appointment this past Wednsday. Walked out with a check for half of $700.00 for a website . He also will needs a second website that he wants to do in dec/jan for another $700.00.

      I made the suggestinon to do a JV with a resturant to envite new clients and thank current ones. I have a good reationship with the manager of a great place. When I talked to him he requested a meeting to discuss his site as he is too busy to do his own marketing.

      Now I am not a genius by any means. I used to sell insurance so i'm used to talking and establishing relationships. However until I read this thread I was afraid to move as I didnt think I knew enough to do any of this. I understand it but wasnt sure if i could do it wel enough to sell. This thread has removed that obstacle.

      There is still a lot of work ahead for me. (i gotta find more prospects, get better at building sites and videos, ect) but I will now learn as I earn!!!!!!!
      Thank you John. your gift has given me a new outlook!!

      WHAT A WAY TO END A YEAR!!!!!!!!!!

    Wow, that is moving ikan, thank you for sharing. So much! Im happy for you that you got the inspiration to do this! Makes it worthwhile.

    Whats your daughters fave band? Heck, lets get her a cd of them to celebrate!

    My daughter was the same way taking a 27 hour road trip with me once, where I insisted on listening to the ENTIRE personal power seminar like 5 or six times in a row....lol Every now and then I would give her a break and put on some Depok Chopra!

    I was actually trying to brainwash her along with me...but not sure how well it worked! lol

        Lol. Yeah some speeches are high energy and motivating... others are a kick in the pants...depends on the subject or the issue being addressed.

        I have had to give alot of them through the years... Sometimes you are celebrating your team and other times you are telling them "This is unacceptable".

        Sometimes you tell them they arent talking enough, and other times you tell them they are bssing with people too much and need to move along, and get their mind on the close... Its all relative.

        Sometimes you tell them "I cant believe how much butt you champions are kicking..." , then they slack off and you have to go back the other direction... lol

        Likewise,

        Some speeches are given after 5 cups of coffee, and some are better not given until you have at least had your first cup!

        While the WF isnt "my" team... still cant help myself! I love this place and feel like a mainstay trainer here... Promise you I will still be doing it 5 years from now. The WF is a part of my life...has been for years. Love it!

        Glad you enjoyed it.
