    Dan one of my favorite things about what you did was joining the Facebook groups of Realtors and getting them to buy your product from there. Can you talk a bit about the process you used to grow to over 1,000 customers without any marketing expense? It blows my mind :-)

    You are welcome to re-apply of course. We are strict with who we let in. If your application didn't reflect the true nature of your heart, we probably clicked on the decline button. Nice work on your results that's incredible. You'll have to keep me posted on how you keep doing.

    What is your U.S.P. for your customers? What are the un-met needs you are solving? Your decision sounds solid enough. The worry about giving away too much I understand as well. Curious to hear your reply.

    Sometimes ignore, most of the time, if I can, engage. "Haters" as you say are helpful for 2 reasons. 1. They strengthen your message. 2. They strengthen your heart. Now... with that said... this AMA? It was hard. Here was my flow of feelings. Hard question > Ouch feeling > Panic, like how...

    I feel sad hearing you jump to this conclusion. You may have an issue with control that is worth examining. Or you may not and just enjoy building it yourself. My guess is it's the first. What's wrong with wanting control? Nothing at all. The downside is feeling like you have to do everything...

    We just finalized pricing for the Foundation this year. It's at a price that anyone who's serious can reach now. We will have all the details coming out to those who have applied and accepted so you can see/decide if it feels like the right decision for you.

    This is difficult to teach in a single forum post, but I'll do my best. And I'll give you an actual webinar script that CRUSHED it. 200 registrants 130 attended 30 sales $8,000 upfront and $1,600 recurring From 1, 1 in a half hour webinar. They are money machines. Here is the...

    1) Maybe in the future for people who just want to learn software. But it's not having the skill in software that makes you successful, that's actually just secondary. The money making skill is not learning the skill of software. 2. Idea extraction is the highest dropout, 30% the first month...

    Wow. What a beautiful question. This is probably the most powerful skill on the planet. Listening. With listening, you can SELL to anyone. With listening, you can find the path of least resistance to getting what you want. With listening, you can get all the nookie in the world from your...

    So that is NOT exactly how I would go about it. The five step framework I folow is this 1 - Idea Extraction 2 - Sketch The Solution 3 - Pre-selling 4 - Building the product 5 - Scaling Under sketching the solution, this is where you draw on paper, get buy in, then go NOT to html or CSS, but...

    We launched brilliantly in my opinion using the podcast channel. 90% of our sales came from Mixergy, SmartPassiveIncome, and one other top podcast that is slipping my mind. 10% from affiliates. We had a few sales from Facebook PPC. Find places that have an audience, and do an interview. Did we...

    Bernie it depends, but it sounds like an awesome market. The bigger the better. How to determine... I'm not sure... it depends on the industry. Just try to figure it out with some genius hack you can think up. You could seriously run a survey of "the top tools X industry uses to run their...

    Hahaha pisco. That is the most challenging question in ANY INDUSTRY! Pisco, with the right mindset you could probably create a solution around this. Here's how I would go about doing it. Assuming people have an interest in the product, sales is nothing more than removing the barriers people...

    To your first issue... it sounds like you are aware enough to know you are sabotaging yourself. This is awesome. I don't know enough to help you through this problem with the specific issue you are facing. But I know it's something around a fear of either failure or success. Do either of those...

    Liberty, I would practice your idea extraction on friends and relatives who have businesses first, get a few under your belt there, then once you find some success, branch out to the cold industries. I don't prefer cold contacts for idea extraction. I like to find industry experts and get them...
