Is Your Online Business Scalable?

I have a simple question for you today? Is your business scalable? 

A business that is not scalable will rarely, if ever, get you to the financial freedom you desire. Scalability is crucial. 

So, what exactly is scalability? 

As you probably know, if a business is “scalable” it can sell more product, make more sales, without dramatically increasing its expenses.

For example, the franchise model, like McDonalds or Subway, is difficult to scale. In order to increase their sales, franchisees need to find new locations, build brick and mortar restaurants, stock physical inventory, and hire new staff, just to name a few of the expenses. 

It’s a strategy that CAN work, but it takes very deep pockets. 

And when it comes to home-based businesses, you need to beware of a few things that will hold your business back and prevent it from scaling up. 

Selling physical products. Physical inventory is expensive. You need to order it, pay to have it shipped, warehouse it, and pay to ship it back out. All of this costs money…and man hours. You can increase your sales only to a point. Eventually, you’ll be forced to rent more space or hire more employees to meet the increasing demand. Very expensive. 

Selling low-priced, low-margin products. The difficulty in scaling a low-priced, low-profit product is that greater sales numbers don’t translate to greater profits. 

Here’s an example…

Let’s say you sell a $50 product with a $25 commission. If you start out selling 100 per month, you clear $2500 per month minus what you spent on advertising. Let’s say your advertising was 10% of sales ($500)…that means you cleared $2000. 

Now let’s say you pump up your advertising and increase your sales by 10 fold. Now you clear $25000 minus $5000 in advertising…for a profit of $20,000. And you had to make 1000 sales to get there.

But let’s say you sell a $10000 product with a $500 margin. If you start out selling 10 per month. You clear $5000 per month, minus what you spent on advertising. If again it’s 10% of sales ($1000), you cleared $4000. On just 10 sales. 

Now let’s say you pump up your advertising by 10 fold. Now you clear $50,000 per month minus $10,000 on advertising. That’s $40,000 in profit on just 100 sales. 

And the more you scale up, the better it gets. 

That’s the power of scaling up with high-profit, high-priced products

Do You Have a Bias for Action?

I was poking around on MattLloyd.TV the other day, listening to some in-depth coaching sessions Matt has done with a few of his MTTB members. And I heard Matt gives some advice that really floored me. 

Matt was telling how he’d helped another member put together and a webinar to generate traffic and sales for her business. 

Matt showed her how to use a free webinar program. Then he told her to schedule a webinar and invite people to it within 24 hours! “Create the webinar before you have any idea what the content is going to be. Now you have a deadline. Now you’ve given yourself 24 hours to get the actual content done. And now you’ll work faster.”

Now, that’s what I call a bias for action!

But the more I think about it, the more I realize Matt is right. Setting deadlines, committing to action is the best way to get things done. It’s the best way to overcome inertia. It’s the best way to overcome procrastination. The best way to overcome stifling perfectionism. 

What’s the worst that could happen to this MTTB member? 

Maybe she looks a little foolish in front of a handful of webinar attendees. And that’s just a maybe.

But what she’ll gain in experience, overcoming her fears, feedback from real, live customers, and maybe even a few sales…will be well worth it. 

What do you need to commit to today? Set a date to do it…in 24 hours or less if at all possible. 

Commit first and figure out the details later.

Why Internet Marketers Still Need Born Sales People

What’s your most deep-seated fear? If you’re like most human beings, it’s the fear of rejection.
Did you know that most people rank the fear of public speaking as scarier than the fear of death? 

Rejection is scarier than death. Why? Because way down deep in our genes, we equate rejection with death! 

Acceptance and belonging and approval have been key to our very survival for eons and ages. Getting kicked out of the group meant isolation, starvation and death. And though we no longer forage for food at the edge of survival, deep within our prehistoric hearts, we all still shudder at the thought of being rejected. 

Well, almost all of us. Born sales people seem to have overcome this deep, all-too-human fear. (And we either exalt them or loathe them for it, depending on our experience with sales people). But the rest of us retain that primal fear of rejection.
In fact, I think it might be the one primal fear that holds more would-be entrepreneurs back than any other. 

“I’m just not a sales person.”
“I couldn’t sell a cheese burger to a starving man.”
“I don’t like it when people say no.”

So, one response is to say, “It doesn’t matter that I’m not a born sales person, I’ll just hide behind my computer screen and make tons of cash through internet marketing! IM doesn’t require any face-to-face selling! No smiling and dialing phone sales either!” 

And that used to be a pretty good plan about 15 years ago. But not anymore. And here’s why…

Fifteen years ago you used to be able to drive inexpensive traffic to an inexpensive website and sell inexpensive items at a fair price and reap some decent profits.

And while it was never as EASY as it looked…it was do-able. There wasn’t much competition in a lot of markets. And what competition there was, often wasn’t very sophisticated. So, in the land of the blind, the one-eyed man was king. 

Now every niche has been exploited. Big companies are spending big stupid money on traffic and driving up the cost for everyone else. Margins have been slashed to razor-thin in most niches. These days, if you’re trying to sell inexpensive products on the web, you’re probably doomed to an “Amazon dystopia.” 

Good luck with that. 

The answer is to sell high-priced, high-margin products. 

But guess what it takes to sell high-priced, high-margin products? 

That’s right…it takes born sales people. 

So we’re back where we started. 

What’s the answer? Find a system where the high-priced, high-margin products are sold by highly-skilled sales people that work FOR YOU. And you just concentrate on driving the traffic. 

That’s how MTTB does it. 

They give you a 21 Step, proven system for generating leads for high-priced products…AND they provide you with highly-skilled sales people to close the sales for you. You never have to get on the phone if you don’t want to. You never have to push or cajole or prod or pressure anyone. 

Fill in the Blanks of Life Problems

Legendary direct response copywriter, Gary Halbert, once said, “Writing does get easier. However, starting to write does not.”

What he meant was that, as he matured and developed his writing chops, the actual work of writing got easier. That makes sense. 

But what never got easier was the starting. Overcoming procrastination. Just sitting down at the blank page and beginning. Eliminating all the distractions. Pushing out all the voices in your head that are telling you, “You can’t do it. You’re not good enough. It’s going to be painful. You’re not ready”. 

We all know that feeling. For you it may not be writing. It may be some other important project. It may be starting your online business. 

The difference between successful people and unsuccessful people doesn’t have much to do with preparedness, skill, intelligence, money. It has everything to do with action. 

Successful people begin before they’re ready. They don’t procrastinate. They don’t wring their hands over all the things that could go wrong. They don’t hesitate because they’re not _____ enough. Fill in the blank: Rich enough. Tall enough. Strong enough. Handsome enough. Smart enough. Experienced enough. 

Successful people know that they will never be 100% ready. In fact, waiting until you’re 100% ready is the best way to insure you’ll never be successful. 

Here’s a motto successful people live by…

Ready, Fire, Aim.

Do you live by that motto? 

If you think it sounds like a foolish motto, stay tuned. I’ll tell you why “ready, fire, aim” is a far more effective method for achieving your goals than “ready, aim, fire” in my next message.

Are you an Entrepreneur or WANTrepreneur?

“Wantrepreneurs” will do all kinds of business crap. Everything
BUT the useful stuff…

Entrepreneurs on the other hand do what’s important. They
market, they innovate, they test, test, test and track, track,
track.

As a result, entrepreneurs make money, and lots of it.
Wantrepreneurs get made fun of by their j-o-b friends,
and they make little to no money.

Which are you?

Are you focusing on the right stuff?

Or, are you dabbling in all the crap that just. doesn’t. matter?!

Here’s the interesting thing…

It doesn’t take much more effort to actually BE an entrepreneur,
rather than just ACTING like one!

And, it’s waaaaay less frustrating!!

Also, the profit potential of doing over acting, or, “thinking” about
doing, is infinitely higher.

Sure, fear of failure creeps in, and that stops some.

Okay, well, did you know that most of the successful people
out there have failed countless times, and fail DAILY in their
business?

So the key then is to get used to fear, and to get used to failure.
Because they’re both here. And they both are part of the game
to success. Failing forward. 

That’s a lot better than not failing, and remaining stagnant in

business and life, right?

Want to step into the role of a REAL ENTREPRENEUR?

Then don’t “think” about doing it. DO it! 

Take action, make mistakes and quickly course correct, and
then do it again. But this time, your mistakes will be higher
quality mistakes.

You’ll be up a rung further on the ladder to success.

And, with this system, you can EARN WHILE YOU LEARN!

That’s right, lots of mistakes, testing, and perfecting have
went in to this particular business model already.

So sure, you’ll still have things to learn and won’t run the
“perfect” business right from the start.

However, the road to success has been drastically shortened
for you IF you follow this system to the T.

How Online Systems Are Like Cooking Recipes

Want to start putting more dollars in your pockets from all of your internet exploring?

Well, ponder on this for a quick second then.

Following online income systems is like following a cooking recipe.

You can take the same cooking recipe, like for example, a recipe to mouth-watering, warm chocolate chip cookies.

And then you take take a handful of people that have the
same ingredients, the same tools, the same everything.

I can guarantee you, some of the cookies that these
people make will be great, some will be good, and
some will be downright terrible!

How can this be so?

Because it’s not just about the recipe. It’s not just about the
knowledge.

It’s what you do with it.

Some might have what we’d call, “”the touch””.

But everyone CAN have it if they’ll just think past the recipe/
system a little further and do what makes sense.

And with a recipe, a good cook will follow a recipe, then they
will taste it.

If it needs a little extra something, they’ll add it. Maybe they’ll
substitute one ingredient for another. It’s not just cut and paste.

Same thing with online systems.

You test, tweak, see how things are working for you, then you
adjust some more. You perfect the system and make it your
own.

And when you make it your own, now you’ve got something
really valuable. Something that you can share with others
and that can make you a lot of money.

You’ll have…

A recipe for success.

There’s nothing wrong with taking a system, and then getting
creative with it. Finding unique ways to use it and standing
apart from other affiliates.

To look for ways to zig when everybody else is zagging.

You want to be the purple cow in a field full of brown cows.

And you can apply this to ANY business, ANY niche, and ANY
system. In fact, you must!

And if you stand out, if you’re unique and follow what I
outlined above… You’ll. Get. Sales. Guaranteed.

But that doesn’t mean you’re profitable, not yet.

Profits come AFTER that -on the backend.

And that’s what this system does for you.

After the initial point of contact, Matt’s team will follow-up on
your leads FOR YOU.

They’ll close high ticket sales FOR YOU.

They’ll reveal cutting-edge information to your leads FOR
YOU.

And this will result in lots-o-commissions FOR YOU!!

Stand out. Use MTTB. Make money.

A Million Dollars or Family Time?

Hey, let me ask you something real quick!

Why are you really looking at building up an online business?

Is it to make a jillion bucks, to become filthy stinking rich, and to have 2-3 Ferrari’s in the garage of your mansion?

If you’re like me at all, that is NOT your goal.

In order to do something like that, you’d have to be
able to run a very specific type of business.

One that will require a lot of blood, sweat and tears,
coupled with a boatload of focus and determination.

Here’s what I’ve found that many of us are looking
for.

It’s not a business that makes us the most possible,
but rather a business that bothers us the least
possible.

We want a business that we can mostly take
ourself out of and it’ll still run and be profitable.

We want automated income.

Which will in turn give us time and money to do
whatever it is that we want to.

*Travel
*Time with loved ones
*No debt
*Etc…

How can you do this?

Well again, running a business isn’t easy. You need
staff, product to sell, you’ve got support, merchant
fees, you’ll need affiliates to promote your stuff, and
really about 20-30 other things you’ll need to
consider…

And even then, you don’t even know for sure if that
business you’ve created will be a profitable one.

That’s very risky ground to be on…

So how can we make the most and yet, get bothered
the LEAST by the business?

You team up with a person that’s doing all of the above!
You leverage everything he’s already set up, and you’re
now essentially out of the daily procedures and
processes.

This is the best system out there for this:

>> http://m0be.com/maudine/9d218fbb

You will be up and rolling extremely fast here.

Everything is already set up, profitable, and ready
for you to use and leverage to your success.

Not only that, but you’ll get a coach to help you along
the way when you need them.

They’ll even get on the phone with you and help you
take your business to the next level.

These same coaches can make you a LOT of money
as well! (e.g. Become friends with them!)

You see, as a part of this system, the lions share of
the backend profits go straight to you.

This means that this system is COMPLETE.

Literally everything is setup so you can work the
minimal amount, and make the maximum profits.

Normally, this would sound too good to be true and
would be about some hypey software that would allow
you to simply push a button and make millions. lol…

That’s not this.

This company has employees from all around the world,
working around the clock supporting you.

There’s a team of sales people working 10-18 hrs a day
making YOU money.

This company is bringing in millions a month. It’s not
push button, it’s a full fledged legit business and a fast
growing company.

And you can proudly and simply leverage it all to your
own personal success.

It’s setup with you in mind to succeed fast, no matter
what your experience level is.

And members from all experience levels have profited
from this and proven it will work for anyone serious,
at any age, that’s willing to give it a go.

Founder of IBM on Your Success

“”Would you like for me to give you a formula for success? It’s quite simple, really. Double your rate of failure.””
-Thomas J. Watson, founder of IBM

I really like that quote. And you can take it to the bank, coming from a guy whose company has made billions and even lost over 5 billion in just one year.

He knew that success simply comes from a LOT of failures. 

Some big. Some small.

Failing isn’t natural for most of us though.

We were taught at school to take grades and pass. If we didn’t get the right grade, we failed.

And if we brought a report card home that had a big
red F+ on it, we felt like we failed our parents.

Failing wasn’t something we were ever encouraged
to do.

It’s something that we have to learn to get over though,
because in reality?

Failing isn’t failing.

Failing is succeeding!

Doing nothing is the only way you’ll lose here.

Something that I like to do is to ask myself, “”What’s
the worst that can happen?””

Seriously, when you’re fighting doing something that
you need to do in your business, when you feel the
resistance, ask yourself that question.

You spend $10 bucks on your first FB ad.

What’s the worst that can happen? You lose $10
dollars? Can you handle that! Can you lose another
$10 a day until you get it profitable? Sure you can.

You email your new prospect list and make an offer
to them, and somebody unsubscribes and hits the
spam button on their way out the door.

Is that too tough for you to take?

You buy a Solo Ad from a vendor. Again, what’s the
worst that can happen?

As long as your smart about things, the risk is usually
just created in our heads.

We think we can’t “”fail””, because if we do, WE’RE a
failure.

But it’s just not true!

Here’s another one to ask yourself…

What’s the BEST CASE SCENARIO that could
happen here?

So maybe the ad leads to a $1k commission, 10
people buy from the email you sent, the solo ad
brings you another 100 leads and a few sales
scattered over the month…

Think both ways, be willing to fail, and take action.

Fail twice as much, again, it’s Sir Thomas formula
to success. And it’s a great one.

I double dog dare you, put this to the test.

And the best for you will be if you can get all of the
creation and time consuming stuff out of the way
right now.

Go through the easy steps, start to test a few ads 

to your links that you’ll be receiving to promote with,

and fail yourself forward to success with this!

The 4 Hour Workweek Myth

Millions of people around the globe have become enamored by the whole 4 hour workweek premise, made popular by entrepreneur Timothy Ferriss.

Years after the books initial release, the second edition came out.

And it was chock full of case studies and testimonials of people who had changed their lives by applying the books tips and strategies.

However, the question remains…

Can you REALLY get to a 4 hour workweek?

Inquiring minds want to know.

In my humble but accurate opinion on this, and based on the
thoughts of some of my peers, some 8-9 figure earners…

The answer is Yes and No.

If you already have a profitable business up and running, or
can get to the point where you have a business in the profits…

And, you can afford and are able to outsource and automate
things to a certain point…

Then yes, it’s possible to work just four hours or so a week,
and the machine just keeps on turning profits over for you.

But here’s the thing…

When you’re doing things that way?

You are just MAINTAINING.

The business will not be growing in any way whatsoever.

And eventually, it won’t even be at the maintenance
phase. The profits will suddenly begin to disappear.

Markets and industries change, what worked last week
may not work this week, new competitors may hop on
the scene and wipe away your profits, your top affiliates
and partners might leave…

Somebody has to be marketing and growing the business
with the times, and THAT… is hard to outsource and
automate.

Unless…

This is a very rare opportunity.

What if there WAS someone else?

And that person had a huge team, grand ideas, was testing,
innovating, creating new products, expanding and multiplying
profits regularly?

Normally, this just isn’t possible. You don’t just GET THIS
OPPORTUNITY anywhere.

Most will never hear of what you’re about to have revealed
to you…

However, through a rare and “”odd”” form of licensing and the
creating of a unique partnership, you can get a chance at
this.

Again, do all this yourself, and you’ll never achieve the 4
hour workweek, or likely, anything better than a 40-60
hour workweek for that matter.

But parter with the right guy, that’s working around the
clock, and has a profitable plan already working to the
tune of 7-figures a month?

Well, it may just be possible!
