How Serious Are You...REALLY?

High five dude!

First thing, I know of NO one who has worked harder than Steven W. to obtain his success (some would say far too hard, but that is just one opinion)...and few have contributed as much to the WF as Steven has done.

His post can be a motivator, and for a few of you it was the hammer on your stubborn head...for others, it evoked some anger, some emotional response.

And it brought out some experts, like Dr. Mani, B. Kumar, Paul Myers and others.

My experience on the net has mirrored what Dr. Mani has posted, that as much as 80% of respondents to a "business building" offer are actually more interested in a money making offer. Since I've been in the Biz-Op field for longer than most of you have been around, my position is this:

Give em what they want.

Dr. Mani's question about building a business vs. making money is what I call the "Pachinko Binary Matrix"...where each answer leads to as different path.

NO, I don't want to build a business, I just want to make some money NOW...would lead them down the path of making money, and I would offer one of my money making reports, such as The Chattel Report. And if was not their cup of tea, then I'd ask another YES/NO question which would reveal more about them, and what they were looking for.

IF I didn't have the product, I'd consider a ClickBank or other affiliate product which might satisfy their wants.

YES, I want to build a business, something that will last my lifetime and can be passed on to my estate...then there is a different path. They have to have an understanding of HOW to do this and in realistic terms, presented by people who have done it and have the information on HOW to do it.

No matter how someone "finds" you, it is a good idea to have a system in place which can accomodate their rebound from the contact, that is, a way to get to know more of what they want. IF they just want a money making deal, there are 1001 ways for that want to be satisfied, and if they want to build a business OR something in between, why not be the person who can supply their demand?

Steven W. posted some advice which struck a nerve with some people, and the thread can have great value to YOU, if you understand the whole stimulus/response model, on which much of business and money making ops are based.

Thank you Steven for your post. It is right on. And thanks to the pros and successful people who have taken time to respond. I learned something new. Always appreciative when that happens.
