Default Re: 17 Yr Old Kid Knows The Secret!

Knock and doors of opportunity will open... Ask and you shall receive... The only ones not making money are those to lazy to knock (do) and / or to shy or afraid to (sell) ask for what they want.

Pick almost any good product or service and start telling others about it and you will get orders... You can even make a good living selling potato peelers on street corners or candy on the subway.

But you have to decide what you want... and go after it yourself... even if it means forcing yourself outside of your comfort zone.

I have that problem myself... Made $10,000 this past weekend and now I feel like sitting back and coasting. Lucky for me, the wife is more than happy to kick me into gear so I don't get too lazy.

Cheers,
Steve

Thanks TW, Just to clarify....

It was just over $12,000 in sales....

$10,162.00 paid up front thanks to people using credit cards and the balance on payment plan. After I pay my wife her cut and the two employee's who helped us do the shoot.... plus travel expenses, motel rooms and product delivery costs and taxes... it isn't very much at all.

I need to book 3 times as many to make a weekend shoot really profitable.

Cheers,
Steve

Steve that IS awesome. "10k in a weekend"?

Care to share details?
I'll presume it has to do with photography?

Either way. Great work. Keep moving forward. Glad to hear you have a great accountability partner i.e your wife

Hi Duane, Tanks.... Please read my response to TW.

I'm grateful to Michael Ross for his "Success Factor" report that taught me a little twist to having an accountability partner to report to. I hate it doing it but is works amazingly well. Wish I could explain more but doing so would be like buying a WSO on the warrior forum and revealing all the details.

Cheers,
Steve

Hi Steve and everyone,

Just thought I'd mention - Michael Ross's report on this, called the "Success Report" - is still available...

I haven't read about this specific "factor" elsewhere, except in Michael's report... His report seems to be quite unique.

Best wishes,

Dien
