  1. 0:00Here's the deal. Passive income is bull.
  2. 0:03Getting rich quick is also BS. But
  3. 0:07building scalable income online is
  4. 0:09completely real. You'd think you need a
  5. 0:12big audience or some fancy funnel to
  6. 0:14make money online, but the truth is it's
  7. 0:16so simple that most people find it
  8. 0:19boring. I've personally sold over 6
  9. 0:22million in the last 2 years chatting
  10. 0:24with complete strangers over Instagram.
  11. 0:27And I do it in between meetings, on the
  12. 0:29back of my boat, even when I'm training
  13. 0:31at the gym. It's what I call the two
  14. 0:33engine business model. I've taught this
  15. 0:36boring model to thousands of my clients.
  16. 0:39And even complete beginners started
  17. 0:41making 10, 30, and $50,000 a month using
  18. 0:44it. And I'm going to break it down step
  19. 0:46by step so you can copy exactly what I
  20. 0:50do. So what is the two engine business
  21. 0:52model? It comes down to this. Everybody
  22. 0:55wants to get rich. I want that for you
  23. 0:58more than you'll ever know. To do that,
  24. 1:00we got to focus on two areas. The magnet
  25. 1:05and the money.
  26. 1:08The reason this is so important to make
  27. 1:10money online is that most people don't
  28. 1:13have a way to attract their perfect
  29. 1:15buyers. They don't understand what kind
  30. 1:16of content they should put out. They
  31. 1:18don't know what they should say. They
  32. 1:19get worried about getting in their head.
  33. 1:21They struggle even if they have an
  34. 1:23audience. I know so many people that
  35. 1:25have 100,000 plus on Instagram that are
  36. 1:27broke. They don't know how to do the
  37. 1:30money part, how to create an offer, how
  38. 1:33to figure out the best way to get
  39. 1:35somebody to part with their money in a
  40. 1:37way that feels ethical and logical and
  41. 1:39simple. Now, I know what you're
  42. 1:40thinking. This won't work for me. I only
  43. 1:42have a little audience. Well, my buddy
  44. 1:44Mike Brown had 6,000 followers and
  45. 1:46generated a million dollars in his first
  46. 1:48year. So, maybe he got 600. Would 100K
  47. 1:51be okay? See, most people make the
  48. 1:53mistake of little audiences not being
  49. 1:56big enough to make big money. I'm
  50. 1:57telling you, it's all about following
  51. 2:00the two engine process that's going to
  52. 2:02get people ready to buy from you or run
  53. 2:04away scared. But if you don't follow
  54. 2:07these four stages, this model won't work
  55. 2:09for you. But you can't sell anything
  56. 2:11until you identify who you're going to
  57. 2:14sell to. Which brings us to stage one of
  58. 2:16making money online. Find your perfect
  59. 2:18buyer. It's kind of funny looking back,
  60. 2:20but in my 20s, I thought my job was to
  61. 2:23just try to find anybody to buy. And I
  62. 2:25would talk to people and I would send
  63. 2:26emails and I would try to create
  64. 2:28Facebook ads and AdWords and all these
  65. 2:30things to literally blanket the market
  66. 2:33to find anybody that would buy from me.
  67. 2:35And then I realized I spent a lot of
  68. 2:37time trying to convince people that were
  69. 2:38never going to buy, that didn't have a
  70. 2:39budget, didn't matter in the first
  71. 2:40place, they didn't even have the
  72. 2:41freaking problem that I was helping them
  73. 2:43with. So, the first thing you have to do
  74. 2:45is get really clear on solving a
  75. 2:48specific problem for somebody who has
  76. 2:50it. This is different than everything
  77. 2:52you've heard about an ICP and all these
  78. 2:55other things because my philosophy is
  79. 2:57very simple. If you can describe your
  80. 3:00buyer's pain better than they can
  81. 3:02explain it to you, you'll win their
  82. 3:04business. Hit refresh. Play it again.
  83. 3:07Listen to what I just said. If you can
  84. 3:10you define, can you explain? Can you
  85. 3:13walk somebody through the pain they're
  86. 3:15feeling in a way that they couldn't even
  87. 3:18verbalize? You become the person who
  88. 3:21gets permission to help them. So, who
  89. 3:24can you help? My philosophy is you're
  90. 3:26best equipped to help somebody that you
  91. 3:28once were. That's why I love watching
  92. 3:31fitness coaches that have transformed
  93. 3:33their life, their energy, their mindset
  94. 3:35because of going to the gym and eating
  95. 3:37proper nutrition. And then they have
  96. 3:39this passion to want to see other people
  97. 3:41do it themselves. Those are the best
  98. 3:44people to help other people. Folks that
  99. 3:46went through massive pain, massive
  100. 3:47challenge, major setbacks, worked their
  101. 3:50way through, got a result, and now want
  102. 3:53to teach other people. So if you're
  103. 3:54asking yourself, who can I help? Help
  104. 3:57other people like you help other people
  105. 3:59solve the problem that you face and
  106. 4:01figured out the path. It doesn't matter
  107. 4:03if you create a course that they buy or
  108. 4:05you build a blueprint that you help them
  109. 4:07go through or that you do it for them or
  110. 4:09you build a tool that they buy where
  111. 4:11they can do it themselves. At the end of
  112. 4:13the day, you want to find people where
  113. 4:15you can empathize with their pain
  114. 4:17because you've been there before. That's
  115. 4:19the best. The truth is, if you solve a
  116. 4:21big enough pain, you will get paid in
  117. 4:23proportion to the problem you solve.
  118. 4:25When I think about it and I go like, how
  119. 4:27do I truly communicate that I understand
  120. 4:29the customer? I ask myself, what are
  121. 4:31their goals? Sometimes they're
  122. 4:33unexpressed goals. What are their
  123. 4:34dreams? What are the things that they
  124. 4:35think about that they haven't told other
  125. 4:37people? What blocks them from taking
  126. 4:39action? If I can talk about this, then I
  127. 4:41become the expert. What fears do they
  128. 4:43have? My favorite question to ask my
  129. 4:45clients is what keeps them up at night?
  130. 4:48What do they Google to solve problems?
  131. 4:50Those questions that they're asking,
  132. 4:52chat, GPT or Google, is your opportunity
  133. 4:55to enter the conversation they're having
  134. 4:57in their mind. Now, let's get you some
  135. 4:59eyeballs. Which brings us to stage two
  136. 5:02of making money online. Create viral
  137. 5:04content. Viral content. Everybody and
  138. 5:07their dog will promise you they have a
  139. 5:09process, a step, a checklist, a
  140. 5:12blueprint for creating viral content.
  141. 5:14Every month, every 28 days, I get 120
  142. 5:17million on average views on my content.
  143. 5:20I know what it takes to go viral. I will
  144. 5:22walk you through exactly how we do it so
  145. 5:24that you can replicate it for yourself
  146. 5:26and it doesn't take a ton of time and it
  147. 5:28doesn't require a big team and every
  148. 5:30person should be doing this. They just
  149. 5:32never been taught to do this. So, I'm
  150. 5:33going to give you exactly how we do it
  151. 5:35ourselves. The first thing is most
  152. 5:36people think you need a lot of followers
  153. 5:38to go viral. The truth is is today the
  154. 5:41whole algorithm has changed. About 2 and
  155. 5:431/2 years ago, two major things changed.
  156. 5:45First off, the same format for media is
  157. 5:48the same across all platforms. That
  158. 5:50didn't happen before. Before you had to
  159. 5:52create content for Facebook and YouTube
  160. 5:54and Twitter. Now short form content,
  161. 5:57short form videos, reals or shorts as
  162. 5:59they're called on different platforms.
  163. 6:01You can literally edit them and post
  164. 6:03them on the different ones and they will
  165. 6:04work. That's massive. The second part is
  166. 6:07that it used to be a social graph. It
  167. 6:09used to depend on the amount of
  168. 6:11followers you had, how many people saw
  169. 6:13it to give it some momentum. Today the
  170. 6:16algorithm said, "We don't really care.
  171. 6:18We care more about how good is the
  172. 6:20content, how many people we show it to
  173. 6:22that they engage into it, what's called
  174. 6:23the interest graph. And based on that
  175. 6:25small test and a bigger test and a
  176. 6:27bigger test based on the performance, we
  177. 6:29will show it to more and more and more
  178. 6:32people. That's how you create viral
  179. 6:34content. And that's what's completely
  180. 6:36different. So you could have zero
  181. 6:38followers today and have the same chance
  182. 6:40as I do with 5 million followers across
  183. 6:43all my social platforms to go viral
  184. 6:45because you created a better piece of
  185. 6:47content. Right off the bat, everybody's
  186. 6:49freaking out because they're like, "What
  187. 6:50kind of content do I shoot?" I'm gonna
  188. 6:52break it down into threeletter acronym.
  189. 6:55It's called PSL. And no, it doesn't
  190. 6:57stand for pumpkin spice latte. It stands
  191. 7:00for pointtory
  192. 7:02lesson. See, you've got this magical
  193. 7:05device in your pocket that you can use
  194. 7:06to record and create content that has
  195. 7:08the possibility of going viral. In a
  196. 7:10second, I'll tell you exactly how to
  197. 7:12decide what you shoot. But first, I need
  198. 7:13you to get comfortable shooting content.
  199. 7:15So, here's how I do it. I literally
  200. 7:17think to myself, what's the point I want
  201. 7:19to make? The point is the problem that
  202. 7:21your perfect buyer is struggling with
  203. 7:23around the problem you solve for them.
  204. 7:25So, for example, one of the points
  205. 7:27that's going to come up is like, how do
  206. 7:28I teach my team to adopt AI? So, then I
  207. 7:31say, are you a health practitioner
  208. 7:33struggling with get your team to adopt
  209. 7:34AI? The other day I was talking to a
  210. 7:36client and this is what was plaguing
  211. 7:37them because they were like, I use it
  212. 7:39every day, but I've got 12 other people
  213. 7:41on my team and I can't seem to figure
  214. 7:43out how to get them to do it. For the
  215. 7:44next 30 days, everybody's going to be
  216. 7:46encouraged to use Chad GPT. And at the
  217. 7:49end of those 30 days, you're going to
  218. 7:51sit down and you're going to look at all
  219. 7:52their prompt history. And the person
  220. 7:54that you feels use it the most is going
  221. 7:55to get a $500 gift certificate to a
  222. 7:58restaurant of their choice. I know it
  223. 7:59sounds like a lot of money, but that
  224. 8:01will get everybody on board to want to
  225. 8:03win it, and you'll get a whole team that
  226. 8:05just magically gets upgraded. So, the
  227. 8:07lesson is if you want to get people
  228. 8:08adopt AI, you have to motivate,
  229. 8:10encourage, and reward them for doing the
  230. 8:12right behaviors. So, here's why it
  231. 8:14works. First off, stories are the glue
  232. 8:17for remembering anything. Another format
  233. 8:19is analogies. So, the story format can
  234. 8:22be anything. Something that happened to
  235. 8:23you, something that you read about that
  236. 8:25somebody else did, could be a client
  237. 8:27story, could be anything. If you don't
  238. 8:29have that, use a metaphor. Metaphors are
  239. 8:31incredible. And the lesson for me is all
  240. 8:34about being practical frameworks. It's
  241. 8:36actionable. When we get somebody a
  242. 8:39result, then we start to build trust. If
  243. 8:41they can get a ton of results in their
  244. 8:42life before they've ever given you a
  245. 8:45dollar, you become their trusted
  246. 8:47adviser. You become the person that can
  247. 8:49direct them in their life and they will
  248. 8:51give you their attention. But I know
  249. 8:52what you're thinking. What do I make
  250. 8:54this content about? That's why you got
  251. 8:56to go to chat GPT. So, here's the
  252. 8:58prompt. Act as a world-class marketer. I
  253. 9:01want to create content for health
  254. 9:02practitioners. That's my niche. Around
  255. 9:04their challenges, adopting AI. That's
  256. 9:07what I solve for them. create a list of
  257. 9:0925 ideas for content I could create
  258. 9:12using the format point story lesson.
  259. 9:15Then I want you to go on social media
  260. 9:17and I want you to find people that have
  261. 9:19massive audiences that are creating
  262. 9:22content with these points, these
  263. 9:24concepts and watch their ideas. It's
  264. 9:26called prevalidated concepts. So, if I
  265. 9:29see somebody that has an outlier on
  266. 9:31their video and they're talking about
  267. 9:33food prep or they're talking about AI
  268. 9:34adoption or there's something about the
  269. 9:36video that's unique, I can interpret
  270. 9:39that. Don't copy. Use that as
  271. 9:41inspiration and then create your version
  272. 9:43of it that you create your story, your
  273. 9:46lesson, but it's their point. See, that
  274. 9:48way it's your perspective. And if
  275. 9:50everybody just shared their unique
  276. 9:52stories, their points of view, then
  277. 9:53everybody would be attracting their
  278. 9:55perfect buyers. Now, I want to challenge
  279. 9:57you. This is what you got to do. So,
  280. 9:59make a commitment to me right now for
  281. 10:01the next 100 days. I need you to shoot
  282. 10:04one video using the PSL framework every
  283. 10:07day and post them on reals, shorts, and
  284. 10:10Tik Tok. But now that you've created
  285. 10:12that media to turn it into a magnet, how
  286. 10:14do you turn that attention into money?
  287. 10:17Which brings us to stage three of making
  288. 10:19money online. Be social. All right, this
  289. 10:23thing blows my freaking mind. I have
  290. 10:27clients that have thousands, tens of
  291. 10:29thousands, hundreds of thousands of
  292. 10:31followers on Instagram and have never
  293. 10:33considered messaging them. I know you're
  294. 10:38like, "What? How would they have all
  295. 10:40these people, following, leads,
  296. 10:41opportunities, conversations to
  297. 10:43potentially serve somebody, and you're
  298. 10:45telling me they never message them?"
  299. 10:47Nope. They make up reasons. Well, why
  300. 10:50would I message them? They follow me for
  301. 10:51this, but I want to sell that and blah
  302. 10:53blah blah. What's funny is most business
  303. 10:54owners when you ask them, "Why aren't
  304. 10:56you growing?" They'll say, "Well, I
  305. 10:57don't have enough leads." And what's
  306. 10:59crazy is there's no lack of people that
  307. 11:01you can sell to. It's just you don't
  308. 11:03know what to say to them to get them to
  309. 11:05want to buy. Can we all agree that
  310. 11:08social media is about being social? Can
  311. 11:10we all agree that if you have an
  312. 11:12opportunity to talk to somebody that you
  313. 11:14might be able to help, that's probably a
  314. 11:15good idea. But Dan, I don't have the
  315. 11:17time to chat with everybody. How am I
  316. 11:19supposed to do it? I got to run my
  317. 11:20business. Are we okay? Can we just take
  318. 11:22a second to pause? You're telling me you
  319. 11:25don't have enough leads, yet you have
  320. 11:26people that have indicated interest by
  321. 11:29following you, and I would consider that
  322. 11:32an opt-in, and you don't think it makes
  323. 11:34sense to message them, to say hello, to
  324. 11:37say, "Are you here for help? How can I
  325. 11:38be of service?" It is wild. And this
  326. 11:42one's my favorite. People go, "That's
  327. 11:44cool." But there's no way somebody's
  328. 11:47spending a,000, 3,000, 5,000, 10,000
  329. 11:52buying from somebody over chat. I mean,
  330. 11:54not in this world of freaking scam and
  331. 11:56fraud. Let me tell you, over chat, I've
  332. 12:00seen clients sell 10,000, 15,000,
  333. 12:0425,000, 50,000, $250,000,
  334. 12:08$500,000
  335. 12:10things. Now, did they put $3,000 on a
  336. 12:13credit card as a deposit to then set up
  337. 12:15the wire transfer? Yep. But did they get
  338. 12:18somebody comfortable enough to engage,
  339. 12:21to have the chat, to answer their
  340. 12:23questions for them to feel comfortable
  341. 12:24enough to make a commitment? You better
  342. 12:27believe it. So, don't sleep on this. So,
  343. 12:29here's exactly how I use Instagram and
  344. 12:33other platforms and chat with people to
  345. 12:34make millions of dollars every year and
  346. 12:36how you can do it very easily. Number
  347. 12:39one, open the conversation. When
  348. 12:41somebody follows you, and I'm talking
  349. 12:43every follower, I want you to ask them
  350. 12:46this simple question. It's the this or
  351. 12:48that question. And the that is always
  352. 12:50the thing you can help them with. Are
  353. 12:51you here for the content or are you
  354. 12:53looking for help growing your business?
  355. 12:55Are you here for this? Are you looking
  356. 12:57for that? Are you here for the videos or
  357. 12:59looking for recipes on how to be
  358. 13:01healthier? Are you here for the content?
  359. 13:03Are you looking for help with your
  360. 13:05taxes? Whatever you do is the that most
  361. 13:08people will say, "Well, I'm here for
  362. 13:11both." And some people will skip right
  363. 13:12to the end and go, "I need help with my
  364. 13:14business or I need help with my finances
  365. 13:17or I need help with whatever." That is
  366. 13:19the power of opening the conversation
  367. 13:20with a this or that question. Number
  368. 13:23two, post hand raisers. Essentially,
  369. 13:26what you want to do is you just want to
  370. 13:27post a story on your Instagram or as a
  371. 13:30real and just say, "If you are this and
  372. 13:33looking for that, then let me know by
  373. 13:35sending me this message." Like, you can
  374. 13:37go on my Instagram right now and test it
  375. 13:38out. If you send me the word coach,
  376. 13:40we're going to start a conversation
  377. 13:41about how I might be able to help you. I
  378. 13:42would encourage you to make a post that
  379. 13:45allows people to raise their hand and
  380. 13:46say, "I could use your help." But they
  381. 13:48need to know what you do first. Number
  382. 13:50three, and this is for getting rid of
  383. 13:51the tire kickers, is ask a qualifying
  384. 13:54question. Ask a simple question. How
  385. 13:56long you've been looking to solve this
  386. 13:57problem? Have you put a budget aside to
  387. 13:58solve this problem? Like ask something
  388. 14:00that qualifies them so that you can
  389. 14:02immediately go, "Oh, appreciate you
  390. 14:04being here, but unfortunately I won't be
  391. 14:05able to help." And that's fine. You're
  392. 14:07allowed to say, "I don't think I can
  393. 14:09help." And move on to the next person
  394. 14:10that raised their hand and said, "I'd
  395. 14:12like to chat with you." Most people are
  396. 14:13so scared to offend people and they feel
  397. 14:15like they have to talk to people and
  398. 14:17answer every question. It's going to
  399. 14:18keep you bogged down and not have the
  400. 14:20time to talk to the real people that
  401. 14:22want your help. Here's why I love to
  402. 14:25enroll people into my world. And that's
  403. 14:26what I call selling. Because I know I
  404. 14:29can't change their world if they're not
  405. 14:32in my world. You can't help somebody if
  406. 14:35they're not inside your business. So do
  407. 14:38everything you can when you're reaching
  408. 14:40out to communicate how you can add
  409. 14:42value, to be trustworthy, to show
  410. 14:44examples of customers crushing with you
  411. 14:46so you can get people comfortable
  412. 14:48exchanging money to solve a problem. But
  413. 14:51you can't just message people and expect
  414. 14:53them to buy anything. Which brings us to
  415. 14:54stage four of making money online. Get
  416. 14:58the order. A few months ago, I had a
  417. 14:59friend of mine reach out and he could
  418. 15:01not figure out for the life of him why
  419. 15:04nobody was buying from him. And I was
  420. 15:05like, "Well, show me your chats. Show me
  421. 15:07the conversations." And I'm sitting
  422. 15:08there and I'm scrolling and I was just
  423. 15:10watching chat over chat of a person.
  424. 15:14When the person talked about their
  425. 15:16problem, his response was, "It's all
  426. 15:19good. you're amazing. I'm paraphrasing,
  427. 15:21but essentially that's what it sounded
  428. 15:22like. It's like, don't worry, you're
  429. 15:25great. And I was just like, bro,
  430. 15:27essentially, they're saying they have a
  431. 15:29problem and you're saying you don't have
  432. 15:30a problem. They're saying that they have
  433. 15:32a challenge and you're saying, no, you
  434. 15:34don't. You're amazing. When you sell,
  435. 15:36you have to create a framework of
  436. 15:39getting somebody into the right emotion
  437. 15:41of getting ready to buy. No feeling of
  438. 15:43the pain, no decision to solve the
  439. 15:45problem. If you're chatting, a few rules
  440. 15:47you have to stick to. Number one is
  441. 15:49don't release the pressure valve. That's
  442. 15:51what he was doing. The person would come
  443. 15:53in and say, you know, I've sold this
  444. 15:54much money online. They'd be like,
  445. 15:56you're amazing. That's so great. Why?
  446. 15:59You're there to diagnose. You're like a
  447. 16:01doctor. The person came in. They said, I
  448. 16:04have a pain in my knee. And you go,
  449. 16:06interesting. Tell me about the
  450. 16:08situation. And then you touch them here
  451. 16:10and you push there and all of a sudden
  452. 16:12you get to tell them, well, the pain in
  453. 16:15your knee is caused because your hips
  454. 16:17are too tight and you have this muscle
  455. 16:18called the soaz. And if you press on the
  456. 16:21soaz and you loosen that up, the pain in
  457. 16:23your knee will go away. That's what my
  458. 16:24doctor said to me a while ago. And that
  459. 16:26will build a ton of authority for you to
  460. 16:29be in a position for them to buy. Number
  461. 16:31two is you got to get them in the buy
  462. 16:33zone. If you think about it, some people
  463. 16:34come into your chat and they have no
  464. 16:36confidence in their ability to solve
  465. 16:38this problem. Okay? These are people
  466. 16:39that are scared yet again. I'm not going
  467. 16:41to solve this and I'm really concerned.
  468. 16:43And it's not even that they don't trust
  469. 16:45you. They don't trust themselves. Then
  470. 16:46you have people on the other side of the
  471. 16:48buying zone, which is all about having
  472. 16:50too much confidence. They come in and
  473. 16:51they're like, "Yo, I know what you do,
  474. 16:53but I don't think I need you cuz I think
  475. 16:54I'm pretty cool." And those people you
  476. 16:56need to bring back into the center. So
  477. 16:58the way we do that is we ask them
  478. 17:00questions to reframe. So the person that
  479. 17:02comes in and they're like, "Yeah, I made
  480. 17:0310 million last year." Your question to
  481. 17:05them is, "Did you make any profit? Did
  482. 17:07you raise any money from investors? How
  483. 17:09much did you pay out in affiliates?"
  484. 17:11Like, you have to know what the
  485. 17:12questions are to get the person back to
  486. 17:15being connected to the pain. That is the
  487. 17:17buying zone. Somebody that has no
  488. 17:18confidence, you have to let them know. I
  489. 17:21love that you're concerned. People just
  490. 17:23like you are the ones that do the best
  491. 17:24in the program because when they show
  492. 17:26up, they're willing to do the work. I
  493. 17:28have a hard time if somebody is making a
  494. 17:30lot of money coming in trying to solve a
  495. 17:32problem because I can't get their time
  496. 17:33and attention. You are perfectly
  497. 17:35situated to be the best person to work
  498. 17:37with me. That's what we do to reframe
  499. 17:39people that don't have confidence or
  500. 17:40have too much to get them into the
  501. 17:42center of the buying zone. Number three
  502. 17:44is you got to present the offer. And the
  503. 17:46offer has to be designed to alleviate
  504. 17:48all their objections. I literally keep
  505. 17:50it so simple when I show you and tell
  506. 17:52you how I do it, you're going to be like
  507. 17:54impossible. $6 million myself sold with
  508. 17:58my fingers chatting with strangers on
  509. 18:00Instagram. I literally have a notes file
  510. 18:03on my phone where I copy and paste the
  511. 18:06offer in chat. It fits exactly whatever
  512. 18:09character amount that is. One chat,
  513. 18:11here's the offer. It's clear. It's
  514. 18:13concise. It doesn't confuse them. I see
  515. 18:15people over and over again, here's
  516. 18:17exactly how we do it. And it's just this
  517. 18:20long winded complicated thing. Confused
  518. 18:23buyers don't buy. If you try to
  519. 18:27overwhelm them with bells and whistles
  520. 18:29and features, they just won't buy. They
  521. 18:31just want to trust that you can address
  522. 18:33exactly what you said to them were the
  523. 18:35challenges based on your background
  524. 18:36experience and other clients you've
  525. 18:38worked with. Now, that's what I do. If
  526. 18:40you want something that all my clients
  527. 18:41use to make millions, go find me on
  528. 18:43Instagram, Dan Martell to Martell.
  529. 18:46Follow me and message me the word
  530. 18:48YouTube offer and I will send you a
  531. 18:50direct link to my Google doc that all my
  532. 18:52clients are using to make millions of
  533. 18:53dollars online.
  534. 18:56Number four, get the credit card. I
  535. 18:58can't tell you how often people
  536. 19:00complicated getting the money. If they
  537. 19:02say, "I'm in." Say, "Cool. Do you want
  538. 19:04me to grab the link?" Then they go, "Oh,
  539. 19:05no. Let me talk to my partner." Now you
  540. 19:07have a real objection. Be ready to take
  541. 19:10the credit card. When they say, "Yeah,
  542. 19:11sounds like a plan. Perfect. What card
  543. 19:13do you want to put that on? What way do
  544. 19:15you want to make payment? Ask for the
  545. 19:16order. Have a Stripe link ready to go
  546. 19:19that you can send over chat. I've sat on
  547. 19:21the back of my wakeboat surfing,
  548. 19:23chatting, and then sending links. And
  549. 19:26while I'm out there surfing, getting
  550. 19:28payments for people that want my help.
  551. 19:30It can be that simple. It's just the
  552. 19:32truth is people want to over complicate
  553. 19:34it. Have a Stripe link ready to go to
  554. 19:36accept payments so that when they're
  555. 19:38ready to buy, you don't make it hard on
  556. 19:40them. The way we win online is very
  557. 19:42simple. Create content that is valuable,
  558. 19:45that is useful, that educates, that
  559. 19:47inspires, and helps people solve
  560. 19:50problems. And then while you're doing
  561. 19:52that, engage with them, talk to them,
  562. 19:55see if there's ways that you can help
  563. 19:56further. Even if you can't, recommend
  564. 19:58somebody who can. If you become the
  565. 20:01person that is their trusted adviser,
  566. 20:03then you will have the opportunity to
  567. 20:04serve them. I think that is the highest
  568. 20:06form of building an online business that
  569. 20:08makes you money, that allows you to live
  570. 20:10that lifestyle that you've been after of
  571. 20:12freedom and travel and experiences, but
  572. 20:14it requires you to put your fears aside
  573. 20:17and go allin for 30 days posting videos
  574. 20:20and talking to people. But if you want
  575. 20:22to learn how to build a business that
  576. 20:23runs itself, click here and I'll see you
