I'd love to tell you that liars always get their comeuppance.
Sometimes they do, and sometimes they don't.
Just today I spoke to a successful gym owner who noted that nobody wants to be told:
"Progress is possible but only if you work hard and really dedicate yourself to it."
They want: "Lose 50 pounds while eating Oreos and watching TV!"
This newsletter isn't about fitness, of course. It's about how to make the kind of living
that gives you freedom.
But there are plenty of liars in this area, too.
There are people who will sell you products purporting to show how you can make $315.48 a
day without doing any work.
Products like those sell like crazy, and unfortunately the liars who sell them earn small
fortunes.
Why? Because people don't want to be told, "You absolutely can make your living online, as
many millions of people do already, but, like anything worthwhile, it will take effort."
I say this not to flatter you, dear reader, but I am convinced that my audience is smart
enough to realize that nobody earns a living by doing literally nothing, and that of course effort will be involved. You would rather be told the truth.
Notice, however, that I did not say that there are no shortcuts. There absolutely are
shortcuts.
Those shortcuts come in the form of learning from people who have done it, who have made
the mistakes, who have figured out what works, and who have recorded the steps they took.
That is 100% what I did. I studied successful people very closely, watching what they did
and how they did it. Then I did the same in my own niche.
I don't need to be the world's most original marketer who developed a whole new system.
Neither do you. Who needs that? We just want to make a nice living.
I of course don't mean you should flat-out copy other people. I mean you use their success
as a model.
Here's an example.
My friend Kevin Fahey, whom I've known
since 2015, produces top-notch training.
He never makes ridiculous claims, or promises he can't deliver on.
He's had a successful online business for 15 years. He is one of a handful of people I
myself go to for advice. (If you're in his private group you may have seen me asking questions from time to time.)
One piece of advice he gave me in 2016 resulted in $111,000 in additional revenue over the
past six years that I would not have earned otherwise, and which involved adding one thing to what I was doing anyway.
He has a new program out just today. It's called 100K/Year Made Simple.
It's easy to dismiss a product like that as just another pile of b.s. I promise you it
isn't.
He's not calling it "Made Easy." It's "made simple," in the sense that the necessary steps
are laid out in an easy-to-understand way, stripped of all industry jargon, and the most streamlined and labor-saving ways of following each step are painstakingly described.
Yes, you have to put in work. In your heart you already knew that.
But you're learning from someone who runs a highly profitable and ethical business, and who
you can see with your own eyes does the exact things and follows the exact steps he is teaching you.
It's on a discount just during the very brief launch window, so if you want that blueprint,
written for normal people, that gives you the do-this-then-that kind of guidance you've been pulling your hair out looking for, pick it up sooner rather than later:
