When I was a dead broke carpet cleaner, 2 huge insights I realized changed my life forever. They were:
- Learning Direct Response Marketing
- Focusing on Continuity
Learning Direct Response marketing changed the game for me. It allowed me to understand the type of marketing that is not only the most effective, but also the most ethical.
To me, Direct Response marketing is time management marketing. It’s selling in advance. Selling is what you do when you’re on the phone or face-to-face with somebody. Marketing is what you do to properly position that “somebody” in front of you (either on the phone or face-to-face).
Continuity is simply this: It takes just as much time, energy, and money to make a single sale as it does to make a continuity sale. I wish I had learned this much earlier in business. You will put the same amount of effort into making a one-time sale as you will in enrolling the buyer into something that produces recurring revenue.
Automating how often people give you money AND creating a consistent stream of Clients equals a more E.L.F. – Easy, Lucrative, and Fun business and life.
