I respect you enough not to call you dumb
Or to say you're dumb and dumber
So what I'll do instead is:
Share a simple narrative with you
And then allow you draw your own conclusions
So the thing is...
While you were asleep last night...
People shopped on Amazon, Jumia... Konga.. Instagram.. Twitter... Facebook... WhatsApp etc... (stay with me... I'm going somwhere)
They bought stuff online
Signed up for Courses, Coaching programs... Masterminds etc
Plus...
Lots of Freelancers closed deals worth thousands of dollars
From the comfort of their homes...
Via Email... DMs ... Or Over a Zoom / Skype Call
Clients and Customers got debited,
Vendors got richer.
Bottomline: Billions and Billions of Dollars exchanged hands between strangers, 99% of who... have never seen or spoken to each other before.
"Andy but...."
I said stay with me.
Now, when you woke up this morning...
Did any of that money ... (no matter how little) come your way?
If no... then the next question is:
How many times a week do you wake up to credit alerts?
Okay, let's say you're a freelancer, and you sell a service
In which case... you can receive only 2 credit alerts in one month
And still have like $10k in cash from just 2 clients at $5k each
So if you sell a service...
How many times in a month do you get credit alerts?
Once? twice?
And how much exactly?
Enough for you to be in position where you don't worry about money like most people do?
Listen...
I can't tell you exactly how much I make everyday or every week or every month
But take it from me...
Even if it is $20 a day...
You gotta find a way to get richer every day
Or every 48hrs
Or every week...
Or every 2 weeks
The frequency with with you make money shouldn't be limited to one month.
And the way you go about it is by selling something people want
It could be a high-income skill like Sales (Copywriting and marketing)
Heck, you don't even need to have a product or service of your own
You can operate as a middleman
Connect buyer to seller
Walk away with as much as 50% of the sale
Or you can operate as a virtual agency
Connect Clients with Freelancers...
Keep as much as 50% of the payment made to freelancers
Of course, this is ethical
You're spending the money on marketing
You're doing the closing
It's your reputation on the line
And let's say a freelance Copywriter charges $1,000 per project
And you bill the client $2,500
And you spent like $500 on ads to acquire that one Client
You pay the freelancer his/er $1,000 (so they don't swear for you)
You reinvest the $500 in ads (to acquire more clients)
And you keep your $1,000 as profit
Now... here's where a lot of people are dumb
You start making some good money and next thing is
You remember you've always wanted to help everybody in your village
Don't be a fool
And don't buy any freaking thing that's not an asset
Of course you have to buy food and stuff... but you get the point...
An asset is something that makes your money work for you
Stay with me, I'll show you something
Take at least 30% (could even be 70%) of your monthly income
Invest it...
Maybe stocks.. crypto... a new biz... or something in-between
Take half of what's left...
Reinvest it into scaling your primary source of income (so it can bring more meat to the table...)
And if you have people on your team working with or for you
Be sure to pay them first before anything else
It is wicked to owe the folks who pour their heart and soul into making your biz or brand the success that it is...
Hope you're following?
Because you should...
Find a way to earn money everyday
Or every week
Or at least 3 to 4x a month
And as that money rolls in
You should be redistributing it into channels and assets that make you even more money
During my private coaching class yesterday night,
I told my proteges how I only keep 10% of my monthly income
70% is invested.
20% goes into something I call an Emergency fund (in case of incasity)
You don't have to do it like me
But I'm sure my point is obvious
Anyway... it all begins with knowing how to sell
Not just products or services
But yourself
Because people buy you first
Before they buy whatever the heck it is you're selling them
Capisce?
So learn how to sell yourself
And one of the simplest (and most rewarding) ways to do that
Is by learning a high-income skill and selling it to businesses in the following niches
- Software
- Men's health
- Financial
- Alternative health
- International living
- Bio-Nutritionals
- Ecommerce
- Info Publishing
- Beauty and Fashion
Etc
I've helped thousands of folks on this path
Many who are now doing nothing less than $3,000 a month in writing fees alone..
And I'm currently helping a few folks get started this January
If you're already in the FCI program
You're in good shape
Otherwise...
If you enjoy a bit of writing
And the idea of earning as much as $3,000 or more in writing fees appeals to you
But you' don't already have access to the FCI program
Yet, you're ready to take what I show you and Implement like crazy
Consistently and ruthlessly... (To prove you're not a scummy human being who doesn't desrve to earn those juicy fees)
Stay frosty.
