Fox Web Student Oilman's web design progress log

[Oilman]

I started getting back into this today. I'm glad I have my notes from years ago. Unfortunately I never made a sale....

But the good news is I know how to copywrite better as well as analyze which marketing channels to use to sell my services. I also know how to use ChatGPT to do my tasks faster and more efficiently. Maybe I will do a guest talk with Rob one day

I also have to put this somewhere:
I know I have the secret project, this one, another secret project, and my current part time job. I will be doing some job search activities tomorrow. Like I said in my other thread, I don't really like my current job and I will be trying to leave. But the ultimate goal is to have 3 businesses that make me money and I can scale.

Ive been going ham on the mindset section. I think my mindset is at least at 90/100. One of the posts on this forum was very helpful to stop shooting small (like 10K/month) and go bigger. Should be thinking a 30K month is bad, I guess just me personally speaking it's a lifetime of working low paying jobs as well as hearing from family to not think big and be ok with 50K per year (LMAO). I will save the daily tasks section for tomorrow.

Just overall been aggressive. Last weekend had me steaming and I realize I need to take my life seriously.

It's almost midnight here. Today was a B+ day. I had some moments where I got distracted but overall I got my agenda of pushing my businesses forward complete.

So let me recap:
* Completed 10-12 job applications today. I see in my email there's 2 jobs that want me to interview with them.
* With this web project, I reviewed the lessons Fox advocated for. So mindset and daily habits. Before I set up my daily habits I want to review his prospecting strategies. If it comes down to it I will have to make 5 sales calls per day. Or possibly reach out to my network and offer an affiliate. I know this is the beginning, making sales calls isn't productive in the long run but it's a start. Over time I will refine my process so I can either pay salespeople or like I said create an affiliate program. I'm trying to work my way to the investor stage, not be someone trapped in a business that's essentially a full time job.

Ideally tomorrow I complete the section 4: Prospecting strategy. I really need to haul myself because like I've said multiple times, I'm white hot angry at my current job.

It's early in the morning right now. Today was a B day. Like yesterday I had moments where I got distracted but still got some key things moving so I can quit my job hopefully by end of the week.

* I attended my first Fox live call and got some pointers from listening to other people talk about their businesses.
* I applied to a couple more jobs. I also found out today I won a full ride scholarship to a program that will allow me to future proof my career. There are some minor snags to this but hopefully the program managers can resolve that.
* In the next 5 days, my calendar will have 4 events where I can potentially inch my way into a job. Ex: There's a hiring event that's hiring on the spot.

I'm not out of the woods yet but once I have something concrete and make sure the new job is at bare minimum acceptable, I will give my current job my 2 week notice. Even just typing this, I can visualize myself doing that, jumping for joy.

From there I double down on my projects. I'm going to spend the next 30 minutes going through Section 4 of the Fox course. Like I've said multiple times, I'm still white hot angry at last weekend.

I just watched some of Robb Bailey's DR training. My main focus from here on out is to start prospecting, it's not a bad idea to offer it as an add on service in a month or 2 down the line.

I'm still here people. My why for doing all this stuff (as in go be a millionaire) is because I'm tired of being d-cked around by people that barely know things more than I do. If I want to go be someone else's passive income I'm being a loser. I know I can do it, I want my kids to not experience some of the stuff I did because other people can be POS.

Being fired was the greatest thing that ever happened to me. It exposed the enemies and the allies I had.
