    Dummy Guide To VALUE: Craft Million Dollar Offers And Great Relationships (Alex Hormozi: The 100 Million Dollar Man)

    MARKETING EXECUTION 
    No problemo man. I know you just want to understand, I'm for it! I just use that method for simplification. Just to make sure I know my copy or my offer is actually helping people out. Because I feel, if I don't understand the gain someone is getting even with a simple 2 dimensional drawing...

    Anyone have experience starting before 18?

    QUESTION 
    Hey Gabriel! Teen freelancer here but no business yet per se. When I was 17, I wanted to open a business as well but couldn't because of my age, so my parents stepped in and set one up for me. Since it seems your parents won't do that for you, I suppose that's not an option. But you can always...

    BEST WAY TO FIND FASTLANE IDEAS?

    IDEA 
    Here's how I found my Fastlane Idea today... Another approach is to think of it from the angle of improvement rather than thinking up an idea in a vacuum. I used it to find a need to fill that I might embark on later. Remember, you're not trying to think up the next thingamabob that will...

    Dummy Guide To VALUE: Craft Million Dollar Offers And Great Relationships (Alex Hormozi: The 100 Million Dollar Man)

    MARKETING EXECUTION 
    Apologies for the needless back and forth. I'm going to change my mind where necessary and explain my thoughts where necessary because that's probably the source of the confusion. I've gone over my thoughts when I wrote that section months ago, and I'm going to elaborate on it. "Pain is an...

    MARKETING EXECUTION 
    I want to top this off with one full on described example showing my thoughts. You have to think about this in terms of Action, Reaction, dream outcomes, and the LF-8 desires. That humans act to increase or preserve happiness. I was on youtube when I saw this video titled, " Honest...

    MARKETING EXECUTION 
    It does happen, haha! I may not have a master's in psychology, but let's have a friendly toss of ideas shall we? "We can conceptualize nouns as static images and note that (most) verbs are associated with a change in an image (a noun) over time. I dare say, it’s how humans comprehend the...

    When niching down, how narrow is too narrow?

    MARKETING 
    I think the basic premise is that the "riches are in the niches". Where the more niched you are, the more appealing the services you offer are to your target audience, and thus the higher the potential profits you can make. In that sense, I agree. Here's a classic example. If you wanted someone...

    How to get rid of this issue?

    IDEA 
    I think what Kak is trying to say is that the freelancing market can be commoditised. So the solution is to offer value based services. Whearas everyone is solving for example, 10 problems, you should aim to solve 50 or more to be valued and hired by the clients. You can send a hundred...

    MARKETING EXECUTION 
    Apologies, I haven't read most if any of those books, so pardon my ignorance. Reading what you said carefully leads me to believe "Positioning" boils down to Dream outcome + Inherent value upgrade + Walks and talks differently from marketplace offers (new form) or Action to justify Inherent...

    Dummy Guide To VALUE: Craft Million Dollar Offers And Great Relationships (Alex Hormozi: The 100 Million Dollar Man)

    MARKETING EXECUTION 
    "Find an underserved market (Starving crowd). Solve their problems." About this part I do want to chip in a bit more about it. In the context of the guide, perhaps it's just finding all the steps your customer will take with your offer, and solving problems of those steps no one else is...

    MARKETING EXECUTION 
    Nah I agree, coherency definitely needs more work, I think it turned out this way because I wrote it in notes form as a kind of quick checklist for product launches. The book and videos he publishes definitely fills in the gaps (acquisition Alex website), and for those new to this I recommend...

    Ecommerce Vs Agency Vs Freelancing As A Beginner

    Konichiwa! I've never done a proper intro before so here goes... When I was 16, I was introduced to the concept of financial freedom by Hector Quintalla and my friend, the drop shipper. With that initial spark, I went on to read many financial books and stumbled upon the Millionaire Fastlane...

    Hey James! Can't offer advice on the proposals, but if you're looking for a freelancer platform that will allow you to register as an agency, Upwork is available. Don't know if Fiverr offers that option though. Best of luck though!

    Which book i should read? (14 yo)

    INTRO 
    Hey Prince! After, reading Unscripted, and preferably the Great Rat Race Escape. You'll need a specialised skill that you can monetise. There's a bunch of them out there, but I'd imagine you can't physically go out much? (That's how it was for me anyway). If so, learning an online skill you...

    How Do You Become Aware of Your Own Limiting Beliefs and How Do You Overcome Them?

    MINDSET 
    Lex, thank you! Sometimes, you know what the problem is because someone tells you and then you can go solve it somehow. But asking how, allows you to 'define' the actual problem. To know where you need to start. Another great piece to add to my problem solving arsenal :)
