1 Year Fastlane - $15 per hour to 5-figure deals

[Beerbaron105]

My understanding is that @NewJamesBond still hasn't contacted a moderator to verify his information?

 

[MJ DeMarco]

What do you mean I messaged you? I didn't message you. You mean the 'contact us' button goes to you?

Yes, the "contact us" link eventually gets to me.

 

[NewJamesBond]

My problem has nothing to do with whether or not you're the "real deal."

It has to do with the "borrowed inspiration" part...

You borrowed from my website without asking. So I can't help but wonder where else you borrowed inspiration from...

My materials?
Gold threads?
MJ's book?

I work my a$$ off every single day to create my materials, my website, my forms, and every part of my business process.

Then hopalong shows up and decides wow that's working great for him...I'll just borrow that.

But you weren't there for the 100+ hour weeks I put in, so it wasn't a big deal for you...

^ That's the emotional reason behind why this pisses me off.

20, 30, 40, 50...100

Does your age negate the law? Does your ignorance make it right?

How about you give me a royalty on future sales you make from anything you "borrowed inspiration" on.

How about you do the same for anyone else you borrowed inspiration from too.

Will you have anything left?

A jewel thief can easily show he has diamonds. Doesn't make the way he got 'em right.

FYI

This isn't the first time someone "borrowed inspiration" from me from this forum or tried to shortcut my process that I've spent the last 5 years learning, and building from the ground up.

Hey @SinisterLex, none of the questions in my survey were worded the same. I understand you worked very hard on your course. I offered the course for less than 24 hours. I have 0 people enrolled right now. I totally understand why your upset. I am in the wrong. I should have asked you if I could draw inspiration from your questions. My age does not negate me from anything.

What ever happend to this guy? Was he a fake? How did he get another user to verify him as legit without having the same ip address? Used a vpn? He seemed so real

Why bump this? lol

Some of you young guys are just light years ahead of most people who are twice your age.

Big congrats on seeing the big picture so young.

The bad news is that the world will go faster with more Fastlaners creating more value. It will go so fast that people who don't understand shit will go rabid against the rich, the economy, the community and the government. It's already happening.

The good news is that we can leverage on value and build more Fastlane channels EASIER and FASTER. And our wealth will shoot up sky-high.

 

[NewJamesBond]

I've been taking a major break from working. I plan to start up again at the beginning of next week.
I will update the thread when I start back up. I'm planning how to start backup so I can scale quicker and close longer running deals.

what's the reason ?

the 20 years old guy is lucky enough to be exposed to your philosophy at 20

instead of being brainwashed for 20 years in a slave job before seeing light


i will take the chess analogy

a lot of guys today are becoming chess Grand Masters at 15 thanks to computer and modern teaching. there are over 1200 Grand Masters in the world

but there were only 88 Grand Masters in 1950.

a young 13 years old Grand Master today could have been a world chess championship challenger in 1850.


so this is society evolution, there is nothing to do with intrinsic intelligence with the 20 years old guy

At the same time, these young ones are being re routed by Social Media and Video Games.

Re-routed?

Care to elaborate?

 

[NewJamesBond]

@Canuker I can totally understand what you're saying. I guess my BS meter would go off to. Why would you trust this random anonymous person from the internet and apply for his course? I thought about that a lot when I put up the course info. I mean since I don't want to publicly divulge who I am and the companies I work with it really hurts my credibility. I mean really all you have are my words and post history on the forums to draw trust from. Anyone who is applying the course is basically trusting in the good-faith of what I've presented, that is since I don't want to expose my who I am publicly on the forum.

 

[Beerbaron105]

Love the enthusiasm but I am being a skeptical hippo like a few of the other posters have stated. Amazing work if what you listed in your original post is true. But only a few msgs later you are trying to push a course on Fastlane members... We need a bit more street cred before we jump on it! Any reputable person would have no problem identifying themselves and what they have accomplished with bit more detail, we don't need your tax information! haha

 

[NewJamesBond]

Listen, I will not run the program. Obviously, because I am unwilling to reveal my identity publicly I cannot build enough trust to run the program here. I was doing it because I thought it would be a fun way for me to help other forum members. That is why it is so damn cheap. @SinisterLex I drew inspiration from yours, but none of the questions are worded in the exact same way. I'll ask mods to remove the post immediately. I would never want to damage my Fastlane reputation, nor do I ever want to make my audience feel I'm trying to pull a trick on them.

In regards to your business, if you were in the process of acquiring a client and they wanted to see past work or find out more about you would you deny them of that information?

So why are you doing that here lol

I'm in marketing. I specialize in customer acquisition. I have worked with a variety of brands I'm sure you've heard of.

This is where I'm having trouble, I don't know if I want my identity to be public on the forums. I'm denying information because of the fact I don't want my clients to know some of things I write on here.

I can message you a bit more info and then you can verify I am who I say I am publicly to everyone?

 

[NewJamesBond]

@thinkandgrowrich Sent you a message. Please post back to this thread and confirm to everyone that I am in fact real, haha

 

[NewJamesBond]

He is in fact real and legitimate.

This dude is something special.

@Silverhawk851 @Marquin Brewer @GlobalWealth @Arun Siva @Canuker @Fredyisgold @TheSunpirate @GMSI7D @Fox @SinisterLex @Beerbaron105 @AllenCrawley @Elon's Musk

I sent @thinkandgrowrich some info about myself and a link to an interview with me in a very well known media outlet.

@AllenCrawley I tried to send a message to you and it would not let me.
I misunderstood you. Now I understand you meant the contact form at the bottom. I thought that went straight to MJ. I'm sorry, my bad.

I totally understand why everyone would be skeptical. This is a mess.

I am willing to send the info on my success to @Fox or @Andy Black or @MJ DeMarco. I just ask they keep my anonymity.

 

[Ubermensch]

Hey Fastlaners,

It's been almost a year since I joined the forums. In that year my life has completely changed... I'm 20 years old and this has been one of the most thrilling years of my life.

• I was interviewed by 1 major national media outlet
• Networth went up 100% (literary 2X'd), 44% increase in last 6 months
• Went from $15 per hour to 5-figure contracts
• Worked with several multinational companies/well-known brands; consulting or projects
• Did hundreds of thousands in additional revenue for the people I work with
• Began building a brand; since presenting myself as a problem solver with data my close rate has skyrocketed
• Had my profiles on social media/press releases/other PR seen over 200,000 times

While those achievements are great, the more important thing is that I'm growing. The real important thing is that in the last year I have proved that my skills and projects can really help my customers/clients. I have succeeded not in just making money or running a business, but truly changing my customer's/client's lives. I have succeeded in helping people.

I don't feel successful, or something like that, but I understand if I keep helping people, and I keep pivoting and moving forward I am on the track to live a really great life. I really like my work, and I've learned now that I can amply support myself regardless of employment. It is truly unbelievable.

I want to thank @eekern who helped me truly understand how to add value to businesses and @Fox. While I don't do web design I've learned a lot about how to pitch based on from them. Thanks to @Andy Black for such awesome threads. Thanks for @MJ DeMarco for writing a book that has inspired me so much.

Moving Forward, Year Two:
Retain More Customers (Increase Customer/Client Loyalty)
Increase Minimum Sale/Project Rate
Do Millions of Views of My Brand/Brands; Increase Viral Reach (Press/Social Media/Partnerships)
Close 6 Month Deals
Invest money into money earning assets
Outsource more

Thanks.

This forum is already fantastic, and threads like this simply add to its brilliance. Well done, OP.

Moderators, please take a look. I can pass on any information he has sent me.

If this young man is the real deal, this is big.

@AllenCrawley @TKDTyler @Azure @blackkramer @Canuker @Arun Siva @Ecom man @Beerbaron105

 

[NewJamesBond]

I'm hoping this is legitimate. Didn't mean to come off as crass but people want to know that they aren't getting scammed.

I truly do hope you've acheived everything you've said. Genuinely!

Waiting to hear what the moderators have to say.

Also, if you're worried about your identity, then why get interviewed by a major media outlet?

I totally understand why everyone was so harsh, but it was still shocking to me. I still feel upset. Even though all my claims are true, I still feel mocked.

If a Moderator or staff member messages me then they confirm publicly that I'm legit.

I'm worried about my identity on the forums, not in the press.

 

[NewJamesBond]

He messaged me and stated that I could confirm who he was. However, it is not my job to do the due diligence on someone, especially if someone is giving this person cash. I did not follow-up and ask for more information.

He then closed his message with a request to delete his Ad Placement -- which I promptly did.

What do you mean I messaged you? I didn't message you. You mean the 'contact us' button goes to you?

@MJ DeMarco I'll send via contact us my info for you to confirm right now. I just want to confirm you will keep my identity private? Confirmed?

 

[Summer Adams]

Damn this forum was brutal lol. He definitely sounded like a sales guy looking for a (naive) market to sell his courses.
