There’s a dangerous myth going around…

And I’ve noticed that it’s preventing countless entrepreneurs from achieving success… and in many cases, causing them to go broke.

It goes a little something like this:

“You can’t grow a multimillion-dollar business without paid traffic.”

Heard that before?

I sure have.

In fact, there was a time when I believed it myself.

But more and more, I’m meeting business owners who’re growing like gangbusters by simply posting great content on social media… engaging with their audience for free… and offering them high-quality products and services (all without a massive team or media budget).

Granted, this method takes some time, dedication, and a bit of elbow grease.

But if you stick with it, the results can be astonishing.

Take Molly Mahoney for example (aka the Prepared Performer).

Through her approach to organic social media marketing, her coaching business now generates $300K per month in revenue.

I was blown away when I heard that number.

But what surprised me even more was how much she revealed recently when she was interviewed by Rich for the upcoming issue of Steal Our Winners.

During the call, she spilled her whole can ‘o beans and shared the brain-dead simple way to copy her social media process and execute her strategy, including…

• How often to post on social media
• What topics to post about
• The best formats to use for your posts
• How to repurpose old posts
• And even a few tools to take your social media marketing to the next level

This one interview alone was a straight-up masterclass (with step-by-step instructions) on how to use social media to build and grow a shockingly profitable online business — WITHOUT spending a cent on paid traffic.

As an entrepreneur…

Your business performance is a direct reflection of your thinking…

But how can you improve your thinking?

(and in the process grow your business)

Fortunately, we can stand on the shoulders of the intellectual giants who preceded us.

More specifically – we can learn the distinctions they created that evolved into the field of transformation.

Several years ago I conducted 3 entrepreneurial transformation workshops at my offices in Delray Beach.

The results our attendees generated after the weekend were incredible. And if it wasn’t as emotionally draining for me (clients hated me the first night, resented me the second day, and then loved me more than ever at the end of the third day), I would continue to offer it.

So, I figured today, I would break out my notes for leading these powerful workshops. And share with you some of the most powerful distinctions that made the biggest difference for everyone.

What I will be sharing with you isn’t like anything I’ve shared with you before. This stuff is extremely powerful, and will make a big difference for you in the coming year.

Is your first upsell converting within the “golden window?”

If not, then you have a problem.

Chances are:

• Your AOV isn’t as high as you’d like it to be.
• Your lifetime values are suffering.
• And your funnel is probably stuck and can’t seem to scale.

Sound familiar?

Then listen close…

Recently, I was listening to an interview with Rich and Justin Goff for the upcoming issue of Steal Our Winners. If you don’t know Justin, he’s a legit pro when it comes to crafting high-converting funnels that scale on sub-zero-cold traffic.

And during the call, he revealed that he always aims for his first upsell to convert between 30%-50%.

In other words: a golden window for upsell profits.

Anything lower than 30% means that your upsell isn’t congruent enough with your initial offer… while conversion rates over 50% often signal that you’re leaving money on the table and should consider upping your prices.

Point being…

Until you hit this “golden window,” you have ZERO business trying to “optimize” the second or third upsells in your funnel.

You’re just not ready yet.

Instead, you need to tweak and test the 4 most important parts of your first upsell: the offer, length, opening, and format.

And for even faster results…

Implement the best practices that Justin revealed inside his new interview in Steal Our Winners. During the 40-minute call, you’ll discover:

• 3 types of proven offers Justin always uses as his first upsell
  
• The big misconception people have about upsell length (and how to fix it)
  
• Swipeable upsell opening copy that goes against conventional wisdom… increases customer satisfaction… and boosts conversion rates
  
• The simple upsell page format that almost always increases sales

It’s all inside the December issue of Steal Our Winners.

So if you want access, make sure you sign up by Wednesday at midnight to guarantee that you get the latest issue as soon as it’s released.

Have you heard about Clubhouse? The new social media ‘invite only’ app…

If not, you need to asap…

Right now, it is a goldmine for sharp marketers who are willing to jump in and seize the moment.

I played around yesterday and ended up staying on for 4 hours.

Maxwell Finn and I started a room last night “marketers talking about marketing to marketers and stuff.’

Within 15 minutes we had more people listening in and participating than my weekly livestreams.

I was immediately hooked. And the ability for anyone to get an audience right now is so easy – as every social media channel was when they were first launched.

That’s why tonight I reached out and literally begged the two people I know that know clubhouse best to join us tonight and share what they know.

So, Alicia Lyttle and Deb Cole changed their Christmas eve plans to share with us some killer strategies for Clubhouse.

On top of that – I AM GIVING AWAY A FREE INVITE TO CLUBHOUSE for one lucky attendee.

You definitely want to be on tonight’s stream and ask.

Here are the details…

• WHO: Rich Schefren

• WHEN: 6:00pm ET (3:00pm PT)

Every holiday season, I tell myself a “sneaky” lie.

It seems harmless on the surface.

But recently, I was thinking about all the damage it’s done:

• Increased stress
• Disappointment
• And less energy to attack the new year

But here’s what you may not realize…

I bet you tell yourself the same thing… and are likely experiencing the same negative side effects.

So what is this little white lie?

It goes something like this:

“I don’t need to take a break over the holidays.”

Sound familiar?

It’s a belief that’s been engraved into my brain for a looonnngg time.

But I realized this year (while attempting to renovate + move into my new house, grow our biz, and spend time with my family all at the same time) that this guilt trip I give myself does more harm than good.

By trying to juggle everything at once…

My work projects get delayed anyways. My anxiety spikes. And my family hates me because I become an inattentive, resentful a-hole instead of the caring husband / son / brother that I know I can be.

It’s just not worth it.

Now, I’m not saying that you should do ZERO work over the holidays.

You’ve still gotta keep the lights on. And if you manage the day-to-day operations of your business, you know that there’s no such thing as a day off.

But don’t kid yourself into believing that you can (or should) experience the same level of productivity that you do during any ordinary two-week stretch.

Heck, even if you don’t celebrate a single major holiday during this time of year, you have to recognize that your employees… or coworkers… or vendors… or JV partners… all likely do.

And while you might be able to work at full capacity, they surely will not.

So what should you do instead?

Simple:

Plan to slow down in advance.

Check off all your major projects a few days before the holidays begin and don’t dive into your new ones until January 2nd.

That way, you won’t be disappointed when the holiday lull hits your team… you’ll get to recharge your AAA batteries with some legit R&R… and by the time your New Year’s hangover wears off, you’ll be ready to roll full steam into 2021.

Alright, that’s all I got for ya tonight.

Gotta help my wifey unpack.

I’ve been asked countless times on recent livestreams…

Will I walk you through my notes on one the greatest marketing books of all time?

Breakthrough Advertising. Written by one of the greatest copywriters who ever lived, Eugene Schwartz.

You should already know how valuable this book is. And if you do, you recognize how valuable it is to have a voracious reader, top marketer, and compulsive note-taker like me share my biggest takeaways with you.

So, today, that’s exactly what I am going to do.

You should be there.

You may not know this about me, but I consider myself a fitness junkie.

In fact, if I don’t hit the gym at least 3 days a week (not including cardio), I feel like total garbage.

The truth is though, I wasn’t always this passionate about my fitness. It took me a long, long time to foster that addiction.

But in the process, I learned an important lesson about motivation — one that can be applied to any goal you set for yourself, whether it’s boosting your income, becoming a better parent, or getting in the best shape of your life.

Here’s how it all started…

Back in my early 20s (and most of the years before then) I was NOT in fantastic shape. I was far from having an “athletic” body.

But just a couple years ago when living in San Francisco, I discovered a gymnastics gym not far from me that offered adult classes.

“Gymnastics?!” I thought. “That sounds fun!”

And boy was it ever. I had a blast. And the enjoyment I got from doing back handsprings and front tucks motivated me to hit the gym 3-4 days a week.

But then, at the beginning of this year, I moved back to Baltimore and lost that driving force in my fitness.

And as a result, I started slacking.

I could tell that I was getting weaker and I quickly lost the 6-pack that I worked so hard to sculpt.

And that’s when I found a new source of motivation: my self-esteem.

You see, once I got really fit, I loved looking at myself in the mirror. And it worked wonders for my ego to hear friends and even random strangers compliment me on my body.

And when I started to lose that feeling, I got a renewed sense of urgency to build out a home gym… take advantage of the pandemic… and get into even better shape than I was before.

Now, I know this was a long story that’s not about marketing or business.

But the point I’m trying to make is this…

The “reason why” you do something is different for everyone (and it can even change over time).

For some, it’s internal.

And for others, it’s external.

Both types of motivation can be powerful.

But the key is sustained success is to identify which one pushes you the most for any given action.

Do you want to be the world’s best copywriter because you love to write… or because you’re uber competitive and enjoy the feeling of beating controls?

Do you want a 7-figure income because you have a deep desire for financial security… or because you want to impress your family?

Do you want to be a world-renowned coach because of the ego boost you get from others wanting your advice… or because of the satisfaction you get from seeing your clients get results?

None of these answers are wrong.

It’s just critical that you get clarity about which reason motivates you the most so that you can turn to that well of inspiration whenever you need a push to get stuff done.

So ask yourself:

“What’s the ONE thing I want most?”

Then…

“What’s the ONE reason why I want it so bad?”

Answer both questions and achieving your goal becomes a whole-lot easier.

Early this year, Todd Brown called me and told me to buy this book.

I did.

He said it was right up my alley – and he was spot on.

I read it, highlighted it, and transferred those highlights to Evernote.

Next, I read those highlights in Evernote and bolded what was most important.

After that, I read those bolded parts and highlighted the most important parts of what was already bolded.

Next, I took what I had both bolded and highlighted and created an outline of it.

On today’s livestream we will go through that outline.

I can assure you that you will be a better marketer at the end of the livestream than when it began.

If you hate negotiating and want to charge premium pricing… or set strict terms and conditions… all while having customers blow up your inbox asking to take advantage of your offer…

Then listen to this story.

As some of you know, my wife and I just bought a new house and are now in the process of moving. It’s been a bit stressful so far. And part of that has been because we need to quickly buy and sell several pieces of furniture.

For instance, we have a large sectional couch that we don’t have a spot for in our new home.

So last night, my wife posted it on Facebook marketplace.

“What should we charge for it?” she asked.

“$400 is fine,” I said. “I want to get rid of it fast.”

And that’s exactly what happened.

In less than 24 hours, she received over 60 messages from people wanting to buy it.

Many of them wanted to negotiate.

“Will you take $360 instead?”

“Will you hold it for me if I pay half now?”

“Can you deliver it and I’ll pay you extra?”

No. No. And No.

Normally, I might consider some of those counteroffers. But because there was such strong interest, we were in the driver’s seat. There was no need to negotiate.

So how can you make your offer THAT attractive?

Well, usually it comes down to these 3 things:

• Price
• Scarcity
• Urgency

In our case, we were selling our less-than-one-year-old couch for 65% off — making the price irresistible.

That allowed us the stay firm on the terms (i.e. “first come, first serve… you pick it up… no haggling). And in the end, we got someone to Paypal us our full asking price, sight unseen.

But the same can happen if you’re selling something that no one else has.

In other words, if it’s scarce. Either you’re offering a service that none of your competitors can match… or you have a product that’s of superior quality… or you’ve simply got something that’s flat-out rare. And because you’re the only one selling it, you get to dictate the terms and conditions.

And lastly, there are times when you’re selling something that’s urgent. People need what you’ve got RIGHT NOW.

For example, every football season I inevitably cough up a couple hundred bucks to buy NFL Sunday Ticket. Because while I can watch most of my Washington Football Team games on local TV, whenever there’s an out-of-market game, I get desperate and will pay whatever it takes to stream it.

Cause if I don’t, I’ll miss it. And that’s no bueno.

So there you have it folks…

3 things that make a legit non-negotiable offer (technically, you could consider all of them “scarcity,” but that’s a conversation for another email).

Make dollars ‘n cents?

Good. Cause I gotta skedaddle and meet with a contractor who’s working on our new house.
