PV Reymond:

Hi Stephen,

You touched something really important, even if there is a huge international economic crisis you can make a ton of money because it all depends on you. There are lot of opportunities out there waiting for you.

I agree with you that you need skills to make money, the What, Where and How is crucial because if you don’t know what to do, where to do it or how to do it you go nowhere.

I always put it this way, if you want to make money you need 3 things…

1. Focus

2. Proven Marketing Strategies

3. Implementation

When you master those 3 things nothing can keep you from making all the money you want.

I look forward to tomorrow’s video

Thanks,
^PV Reymond

ken from freeTGR:

Hi Steve I understand and agree about masting these.
Don’t you think facebook group list building is better than email marketing. We have so many emails flying at us.
A facebook message being open and read is a higher rate than email. Auto responders like aweber just take money where as facebook messages from a group is free.
I look forward to this.

Nice,
Smooth video and really good concrete content. I was at a major event where Mr. Pierce was one of the speakers, I went to see Zig Ziglar but the positive Motivation given by SP was excellent. I lost my desire to be a speaker and make money on my own after going bankrupt and losing my business. I have spent the last five years exploring how to make money online… Thanks for an excellent example of what to do and How to do it. I will be back, tweeting this, sharing on FB and coming back to learn more.

Note Taking Nerd #2:

Hey Stephen,

What you said in this video about how it’s not about things you can’t control getting better, it’s about you getting better, struck a chord with me.

As a long time Tony Robbins fan I’ve bought pretty much anything and everything I could get my hands on that he’s put out. Even the “Be your own boss” product he did with Dan Kennedy centuries ago. Hahaha!

So, of course I bought his Ultimate Business Growth Mastery seminar he did with Chet Holmes and during this course all he spoke to were the changes as entrepreneurs we need to make to drive innovation in our companies.

I know you’ve spoken with him before and you know what I’m about to share but I pulled a little section of the notes I took to share with people one of the most important answers to the question of…

What Creates a Business Breakthrough?

Decision making.

Decision making is the force that shifts destiny, personal or professional. Most people don’t have the guts to make the tough decisions because they want to make the right decision.

There’s 3 decisions that making in your life and in your business moment to moment…

#1. What should I focus on…
Whatever you focus on, you’re gonna feel. If someone focuses on their needs over the needs of the customer is that gonna affect the business? Completely.

Some people focus on what they CAN’T control everyday. This leads to being overwhelmed, depressed, frustrated.

There’s a pattern of focus. Focus on increasing sales doesn’t always lead to increasing profits. At different stages of business you have to change your focus. There’s a life cycle of a business. If you’re gonna make effective decisions, you’ve gotta know where you are on that cycle.

Leaders make decisions. That what makes a leader; they have the guts to make the difficult decisions no one else has the guts to make. And they know they’re gonna make wrong decisions. Then what?

They know what they want, they see it’s not working and they make another decision to change what they’re doing and keep cycling through this process UNTIL they get their desired result.

Focusing on you what you want, instead of what the customers want gives you a job. Not having an exit strategy means you have a job. This has to be a part of your focus from the start.

The Second You Make a Decision, You’re Gonna Feel It: Focus = Feeling

So if you focus on, “Oh my god, people aren’t buying from me and my industry is going away because the economy’s gone to shit because people aren’t spending money,” this will affect your state which will affect your decisions.

Now should you lie to yourself and pretend there aren’t challenges? No. What you need to focus on instead is What You’re Gonna Do.

In any marketplace there’s ALWAYS people buying.

#2. What Does This Mean?

When the market hits bottom, is this the end… or the beginning?

If you think this is the end of your business, the end of opportunity, the end of our economy, are you gonna feel differently and act differently than if you thought it was the beginning?

The difference between Joe Kennedy with $4 million bucks in 1929, and Joe Kennedy with $180+ millions of dollars in 1932… that big of jump… different focus, different meaning. When everyone else was throwing in the towel, he was focused on the opportunity and taking market share and the meaning for him was that this was the greatest opportunity of a lifetime and there’d never be another like this for him. In just those 3 years, he made enough to take care of all his heirs for decades to come. Different focus, different meaning.

Think about an intimate relationship. If you think it’s the end instead of the beginning, are you gonna treat that person differently? In the beginning of a relationship you’ll do ANYTHING for that person you love. In the beginning someone asks you to take out the trash and you do it with glee. In the end, they ask you to take out the trash and you almost bite their head off for thinking you’re their janitor.

Treat people at the end of the relationship like it’s the beginning and there won’t be an end.

What if you fell more in love with your customers/clients more than your product? More than your company? If you’re entire purpose for being in business is about meeting their needs you would do ANYTHING for them.

Guess what? They’re gonna love you. Most people love their customers as long as they’re buying from them or doing what they want or respond to them. If you want clients/customers for life, fall in love with them. This is a different focus. Different meaning which leads to different decisions being made.

Is your business being punished by god? Or, are you being challenged? Or, is this actually a gift, what I’m facing right now?

Whatever meaning you give controls what you feel and what you feel controls your 3rd decision…

#3. What Are You Gonna Do?

The whole economy is driven by this, “Oh shit, this depression is gonna go on forever, I better not spend my money, better not take chances.

Decision making is your power. If you want to change your business, think about what’s changed your business in the past. I guarantee you what changed it was some decisions you’ve made. Decisions about people, product, marketing, location, etc.

80% of success is “Why-To”, 20% is “How-To”

If you’re gonna become a great business person, you’ve gotta become a great practical psychologist. You’ve gotta know people. How to influence yourself and others.

What was one of the worst decisions you ever made, one of the biggest failures of your business career? What did you learn from it?

When Tony asked the room if their wrong decision had to with a partner/person, most of the room raised their hand. Next most, was a decision people made within themselves. So this is why Tony emphasizes so much the fact of becoming a practical psychologist.

What was one of the best decisions you’ve ever made, one of the greatest successes of your career so far in your business career? What did you learn from it?

When asked if a breakthrough, learning something they’d never known before, maybe even after doing something wrong and seeing the right way to do it was responsible for this, most of the room raised their hand.

This means it’s our mission as a leader to extract value out of every problem. Every problem truly becomes a gift.

If you don’t do this, you start wishing for less problems.

What’s the purpose of a business? It’s a mission to answer the question of “How Do We Add More Value to other people’s lives that they’ve never received before from anyone else?”

Whoever can add the most value in the eyes of the customer, wins. The most successful companies engender some values. They get people to think a different way.

There’s only force that allows for this… LEADERSHIP

Leaders make decisions that either add value or take it away.

Great leaders add value AND profit. You can add lots of value and still go broke. Even a non-profit has to bring in profit to stay alive.

========================================================
Thanks Stephen for reminding me of the importance of evolving and transforming our mindset. Can never get enough of this message.

Marquina Rawlings:

Hi Stephen,

Before I got your book and signed up for your MRMI Super Cash system, I worked at practicing to get the right content for my products in my jewelry store but felt like maybe I wasn’t doing something right. Turns out that the word “keywords” was actually important…hmm…

The thought of “pulling”/attracting the right customers to my store has always been on my mind since, I’m sure everyone knows, the wrong customers can be extremely difficult.

For the first time, I am beginning to understand that there are many “facets” of internet marketing – I had thought (before I started training with you) that it was all the same thing…interesting. So, if I’m not finding the idea of becoming an internet coach interesting, there are SO many other things I could do to make money on the internet!

Yes – for anybody who’s wondering – I am a wet-behind-the-ears internet marketing newbie!

But I love to learn new things, and I am learning SO much!

Thanks, Stephen!
