I hit a nerve...

Yesterday, I told you about how you can become your own WORST EMPLOYEE...

Well, the flood of replies tells me that I hit a nerve. :)

Most people agreed agreed with me that they haven't been giving their business the RESPECT it deserves and that my simple 3-4 item checklist strategy was bang on...

Quick recap about my checklist method...

Execute just 3-4 tasks everyday that will DIRECTLY bring home the turkey bacon.

But there was one stand-out that decided to CHALLENGE me:

"Your checklist idea may work for you, but how am I supposed to know what tasks to focus on? And how am I supposed to outsource the rest? It's easy for you because you're the guru with outsourcers to do the work for you. What about the little guy like me. I can't afford that."
-Joe Chesney

Joe, I appreciate you reaching out and encouraging me to clarify!

Firstly, I'm no guru, nor am I interested in ever becoming one.

I'm all about getting you the results you deserve and interacting with you directly (that's why I actually answer my emails... try getting through to a "guru"!)

Secondly, your checklist is all about focusing on the tasks that directly result in either:

1. More highly qualified leads entering into your funnel
2. More highly qualified joint venture partners you can work with
3. More highly targeted products to sell to your existing customers

It's about converting a lead into a customer, then a customer into a RAVING FAN.

That's it. Anything outside of that core area isn't mission critical for you to devote your day to.

So let's say you sell an exercise home study DVD course. You can be the stock boy or girl
and fill boxes, print invoices, and make daily trips to the post office...

Or you can focus on recording more videos about why your DVD rocks, contacting potential JV partners to host a webinar for their list, or creating additional products or training to sell to existing customers.

That's just the tip of the iceberg, but you can see what I'm getting at: DO THE STUFF THAT MAKES YOU PROFITABLE.

And as CEO of your own company, you need to focus on the big picture stuff...

• Mailing stuff isn't the job of a CEO
• Creating graphics isn't the job of a CEO
• Tinkering with WordPress isn't the job of a CEO

And that brings me to the issue of outsourcing...

Outsourcing does NOT have to be expensive and you don't have to take on full time staff. Not at all.

• You can have a logo created for 5 bucks at Fiverr.com.
• You can have WordPress installed or 5 bucks at Fiverr.com.
• You can have trained pros take on simple tasks at FancyHands.com

And once you've gotten that far, it's time to get back to the stuff that brings home the dough.

This isn't difficult. The difficult part is being your own boss... setting your own deadlines...
and having the DISCIPLINE TO GET STUFF DONE.

No more excuses, it's time to EXECUTE.

Carpe Diem,

P.S. You can't change and stay the same. Impossible. If you REALLY want to succeed in your biz, then you have to do something differently.

Worst employee, ever...

Listen up. This is IMPORTANT...

There's a BIG PROBLEM trending.

You see...

Over the past several weeks, I've answered several hundreds of emails from my clients (and you may be one of them), who told me all the reasons why they need their business to work...

Health issues, home foreclosures, family challenges, pressure from the Mrs., and more.

Those reasons are very real and they're great motivators to keep you focused.

But here's the BIG PROBLEM:

RESPECT.

Yup, good ol' R-E-S-P-E-C-T.

That's what I see trending in each email I get... A lack of respect for your OWN biz. It's an EPIDEMIC in the online world.

Let me give you an example...

Say you're stuck in a dilbert cube all day and your boss tells you to get stuff done.

What do you do?
You get stuff done.

And what happens when you don't?
You get FIRED.

Simple CAUSE and EFFECT, right?
Don't do your job = Don't collect your pay check.

So you get the job done because you RESPECT the pay check and you RESPECT the fact that your boss as the ultimate authority to cut your bread money... so you put in the hours and effort to earn your keep.

WELL HERE'S THE THING....

When YOU ARE THE BOSS, you set the rules and create the work environment. You create the schedule, the goals, and the income potential.

But instead of respecting authority, you have to learn how to respect YOURSELF and your own to-do list.

YOU need to get stuff done - whether you have an hour a day, or ten hours a day.

And what if you don't get stuff done?
You effectively become your WORST EMPLOYEE.

No sugar coating here... it's the truth.

Now the best part is that you can easily go from worst employee to EMPLOYEE OF THE YEAR...

HERE'S WHAT YOU NEED TO DO:

Focus on a short daily checklist of 3-4 items  that will BRING IN THE MONEY, then IMPLEMENT IT!

It's easy to be swept away by a lack of time and focus, but when you have just 3-4 things that are directly going to bring home the turkey bacon, it's a lot easier to get things done without overwhelm.

And it's those 3-4 things that will build the BIG momentum, get the cash flowing, and
get you to respect your own business.

You CAN succeed. But you have to WANT it.

Do you want it?

Mind the Book - Done-for-You "Crowd Sourced" Market Research

I discovered this cool tool called: MindtheBook.com and I wanted to show you how you can leverage the questions and answers on this site to create great blog content, book reviews, products, workshops, webinars, teleseminars, or your own books!

Crowd Sourced Market Research

What is crowd sourced market research? Essentially, it means that people contribute questions like "How to be happy" and then others submit answers about books that help to answer that question.

How is this useful?

Well, this is great because YOU get INSIDE the MIND of what people are searching for... AND what types of solutions, when it comes to books and content that they're likely to find.

In my quick video tutorial below, I'm going to show you two cool ways of using this site:

1. How to create excellent blog content by doing things like writing short book reviews and optimizing your blog post for the keywords of these "questions."
2. How to discover WINNING product ideas by leveraging the questions your prospects are already asking... then using Amazon's "Search Inside..." tool to create a profitable outline for products, books, workshops, teleseminars, software, and other tools.

Of course, all of this can then feed your email autoresponders, workshops, table of contents for your book, and so on. The best part? The research is done for you.

If you need the content to "fill in" the chapters, we've got a ton of great stuff you'll find in the PLR store.
