| | | Candidate,
At my last company, we spent months working to secure a deal with a huge, multi-billion-dollar company. Finally, WE GOT IT! Overnight, they turned on their massive traffic spigot and started sending us thousands of daily users.
To the public, it looked like we had a huge major win on our hands. HUGE DEAL! FREE USERS! OMG!
The problem was, not one of them ever turned into a paying customer. Zero.
This was when I learned a key principle: LOOK UNDER THE HOOD.
If you had looked under the hood, you would have seen more than the raw numbers. You would have seen what the numbers actually meant.
This week, I've been talking to you about starting your own online business because my Zero to Launch course closes tonight at 11:59pm. I noticed you haven't joined yet, so I want to take you under the hood to look beyond the numbers.
We'll start with this screenshot of our daily revenue I took a few years ago. $18,000 in one day -- a Sunday -- while I was flying from LA to NYC. | | | | | | $18,000 in one day -- automatically. | | | | | | The number seems pretty cool, right? But what if you dug below the surface?
* * *
$18,000 in one day. While I wasn't even at my computer.
This is what a lot of people brag about, but that's the surface number.
If it were me, I would want to know:
- "How do I get my first $1,000 online?"
- "What's the system to find a profitable idea so I don't waste months spinning my wheels?"
- "Once I get it (because I know I will), how do I scale to 10X, 100X, and even 1,000X that?"
| | | | | | | | Most people only focus on the surface number. It's safe to do that, because you don't have to understand what went into actually getting it.
You know the trick our mind plays on us? It makes us say, "I could never do that." I know, because I used to say the same thing.
I would hear about how big people's email lists were, or how many products they had, and I would fixate on the numbers.
What I SHOULD have done was say, "How did they get there? What did they do at first? And how did they grow?"
For example, when I started IWT, I didn't really have any idea how it could turn into a business. I certainly didn't know about sophisticated marketing topics like advertising, LTV, and AOV.
I just knew I wanted something more than waking up, commuting to work, sitting down at my desk with a big sigh, and turning on my computer to dread what showed up on the screen.
For 8+ hours a day!! No way. I can't do this for the rest of my life.
It was funny the way my mind worked, too. I would read all these business blogs -- all these people talking about taking vacations in the middle of the workweek -- and my mind's natural reaction was to tell me all the reasons I COULDN'T do it.
So why did I keep reading those business blogs? Why did I keep tormenting myself?
This is where the serious people separate themselves from the wannabes.
Anyone can SAY they want to start an online business. Or that they want to create a business that generates income while they sleep. That's easy.
Very few will actually DO the work to make it happen.
A year later, most of those people will still be reading blog post after blog post, treating online business as if it's this untouchable fantasy they can never achieve. And in fact, they're right -- because they only dreamed about it, but never took a single step to achieve it, they'll never get it.
That small group of people who decides to look beyond the numbers and actually LEARN THE SKILLS of starting an online business -- including finding a business idea, learning how to package that into something people are delighted to pay for, then scaling it up to thousands, even hundreds of thousands of dollars a month -- guess where they are a year later?
In fact, I want to walk you through the psychology of dreamers vs. winners:
3 pointless worries that keep people from starting a successful online business 1. "What would I sell?"
We all have things we're unusually good at. Skills and knowledge we take for granted because it's so "obvious" to us, but that other people would be fascinated by. Maybe you know a lot about fitness. Maybe you have a great eye for decorating. Or maybe your friends always come to you to fix their computers.
When you say, "I have no idea what I'd sell" that's really code for, "I'm going to wait for the perfect idea to hit me like a bolt of lightning."
That's not where great ideas come from. Ideas don't happen to you, you find them. Like an archeologist digging for bones, I can show you a proven process to uncover skills you didn't realize you had, then "test" them for profitability. That's how I built a multimillion-dollar business that offers 18 courses and serves 30,000+ paying students in nearly every country around the world.
And it's what I teach my students in Zero to Launch.
I cannot be any clearer. If you do not have a business idea, Zero to Launch can show you how to find a profitable idea. Then show you how to go from "idea" to a successful online business. (Join Zero to Launch today).
2. "I'll do this later"
Today may not feel like the "right time" to join this course. But was last year any better? Will next year really be any different?
The truth is, THERE WILL NEVER BE A PERFECT TIME! A year ago, you were talking about all the things you were going to do "next year" when you got some free time.
Brutal truth: Life only gets busier. If you don't create boundaries and decide what you want to do, the world will decide for you.
You'll never feel entirely ready to start an online business. The people who have the most success in anything don't wait for the "right time." They decide they're going to MAKE IT the right time -- excuses be damned.
And those doubts? They are perfectly normal. All of us feel doubt and uncertainty before we take on something new. The sad truth is, most people let these doubts control them. And that's why most people get stuck in the endless drudgery of waking up, going to work, coming home, having dinner, going to bed -- five days a week, for 30 years. Who wants that?
We're lucky. We live in a period where you can make your mark and share your passion with the world completely on your own. You don't have to wait for some gatekeeper to pluck you from obscurity. No book agent to "bless" you. You don't need a PhD or 30 years experience to make an impact and get people to listen to you.
Today, you can go straight to the market of millions of people online, and find the audience that is desperate to to hear from you. And delighted to pay you for knowledge and skills you already have.
All you need is 5 hours/week. The more time you put in, the better results you'll get.
Not sure if you have the time to build an online business? Inside Zero to Launch, I'll show you how to make time and get more done than you thought possible.
3. "I don't think this will work for me"
We've tested Zero to Launch with thousands of students around the globe. It doesn't matter if you're 15 years old or 55. If you live in China, Slovenia, Brazil, Burma, or Antarctica.
Stop coming up with excuses for why something WON'T work for you. Reframe it like top performers do: "I understand no course on earth can give me uniquely specific insights for my minute situation. But I will take the material and apply it to my situation. Nothing will stop me." I showed you the wide range of students who wrote about their success with Zero to Launch on their own sites.
I flew students in for tens of thousands of dollars so they could share their experience with you. Gave you a bunch of videos all last week on starting an online business. And wrote you a detailed FAQ page to answer your most burning questions.
As for the course itself, I made it as easy and as convenient as possible for you to go through. The entire course is downloadable and fully transcribed so you can take it at your own pace. You can "pause" and "resume" at any time. You get lifetime access, and can upgrade anytime you want.
I even added a 100% money-back guarantee.
At a certain point, you have to ask yourself: "Am I serious about starting an online business? Is this something I truly want to do?"
If the answer is no, that's fine. This isn't for everyone. But if you answered yes, then it's time to put yourself in a position to succeed.
Over the past three weeks, you've seen an overwhelming amount of material about Zero to Launch. I've shown you case study after case study:
- Nagina, the busy working mother
- James, the chemistry instructor
- Erin, the fitness instructor
- Selena, the PR professional
- Maria, the fitness coach afraid of selling
- Naveen, the overbooked consultant
- Sarah, the relationship coach
- Matt, the hesitant health coach
- Bushra, the mom without her family's support
- Tom, the "wantrepreneur"
| | | | | | | | I deliberately sought out the toughest students to test this course on because I wanted to be 100% sure it could work for you. Even if you're not an "expert." Even if you don't have a business, or a website, or a technical background. Even if you only have a few hours a week. And even if, like when I started out, you've never done anything like this before.
The results: To date, the strategies and systems you'll learn in Zero to Launch have been PROVEN in 50+ different industries, with 30,000+ paying customers. No other course can give you a more detailed roadmap to starting your online business. | | | | | | What students learned with Zero to Launch. | | | | | | Most people who dream about starting an online business spend YEARS reading blog after blog -- without ever getting anywhere.
No matter how much you study, you're never going to have "all the information." And learning is great, but the only way to make any real progress is if you stop reading and start DOING. You have to finally invest in your success. The same way CEOs and professional athletes hire trainers and coaches, because they know the power of investing in their success.
Do you? I've shown you PROOF that Zero to Launch works with men, women, international students, busy mothers, people with no experience, people who run successful businesses, and every conceivable person in between.
You can go on believing the thoughts in your mind on why this won't work, why this isn't for you. Or you can say "To hell with that. I deserve the same success as those other people -- and I'm going to get it. Starting today."
You don't need more information. It's all in front of you. If you're ready for this to be the year where everything changes, Zero to Launch will help you start an online business.
This offer disappears tomorrow Today -- until tonight at 11:59pm Pacific -- you have the opportunity to join the most comprehensive course on starting an online business ever created. One that's proven and gives you everything you need to start and become successful in crafting the life you deserve.
Don't worry if you don't have an idea yet. And don't worry if you want to dream big -- if you want this to generate $1,000 a month, or even $250,000/month. Everyone starts from zero. You can choose to stay small or scale huge. This is the first day of realizing YOU'RE in control.
Over the past year, I've had students who were in similar positions to the one you're in today. They had doubts. The difference between them and everyone else is they made the leap and invested in themselves.
And the people who didn't take the leap? You'll probably never hear anything about them.
Businesses are launched on 1 small decision. Just one.
Now it's your turn to make a decision.
We all say we want more income...we want to help people...we want to live a life where we can take a 2-week vacation at the drop of a hat. Anyone can SAY that.
What are you doing about it?
Say YES and start building your online business today.
Or...wait. Maybe next year will be better, I guess.
I'm here to help, and I won't accept failure. I've been here every week since 2004, and I'm not going anywhere. I know you can live a Rich Life and I insist on showing you how it's possible. I've already helped millions do it. Now I want to help you.
A year from now, you're going to be a year older, Candidate.
2 years from now, you could look back at this as one of the most significant decisions you ever made...or it might just be another forgotten day.
