Today, I have something special for you.

One of the most influential thinkers and personal development coaches I’ve been exposed to is the businessman and writer Robert Collier. Robert is most well-known for his book “The Secret of the Ages,” one I’ve had the pleasure to peruse while exploring the vaults of the Secrets of Success Society.  

Collier’s writing often emphasizes the power of the mind, the power of positive thinking, and the use of visualization to manifest desired outcomes.

Recently, Russell Brunson, founder of the Secrets of Success Society (Among other things), led a discussion with the group about The Secrets of The Ages. I was pleased that we landed on many of the same valuable points and takeaways.

I love having a few moments of spare time. For me, they seem to come few and far between. When I find myself with time to breathe, maybe in the back of an Uber, on a plane, or late at night when I can’t quite fall asleep, I often find comfort in perusing the vaults of Russell Brunson’s Secrets of Success Society.

Russell has put together a virtual treasure trove of insight and wisdom with transformative power for his members. If you’ve read my blogs, you know how much I’ve enjoyed reading the works of Napolean Hill, David Ogilvy, P.T. Barnum, and dozens of others now available at my fingertips.

Recently, I was reviewing the work of Robert Collier, and I came across something that resonated with me.  

Let me sum it up here…

Have you ever noticed how many people are glued to their phones? Are you one of them? If you have a free moment at a red light…on the bus…in bed before the lights go out…are you grabbing your phone? Are you scrolling social media, reading endless and pointless news streams, or watching influencers do things you wouldn’t consider in your wildest dreams?

What are you doing with your downtime?

Russell Brunson began asking this question a while ago and found that too many of us are wasting these valuable moments of our lives. Instead of using them to foster better relationships with loved ones, improve our bodies with exercise, or train our minds, we squander these precious moments with endless nonsense that leaves us unfulfilled and wanting.

“In the grand game of wealth, the surest bet is on the terrain you know best.” - Warren Buffett

I firmly believe in making money work for you and investing in your future. I know many who’ve increased their wealth through stock market investments, and I know just as many who’ve lost a fortune playing the same game. Most people who dabble in the market will tell you it’s not a haven for your hard-earned cash. And the truly affluent business owners I know didn't amass fortunes from the S&P 500 or by buying TSLA or the QQQs; they invested in the one business that truly matters—their own.

Investing in your own business is a wise move in any market—Bull or Bear. No one knows your business better than you, and strategic decisions can propel your wealth more effectively than most market ventures. Putting money into marketing…investing in research and development, or upgrading your customer experience yields predictable results. And that’s how you keep control in your court. Negative jobs report? That's okay; you know it won't disrupt your daily operations and investments.   If something goes wrong in the markets overseas—no worries; your customers, clients, patients, or patrons are still lining up to do business with you.

For the past several months, I’ve been privileged to be a part of the exclusive Secrets of Success Society created by the wizard of Click Funnels, Russell Brunson. When I joined this society, I was handed virtual keys to a vault containing a treasure trove of wisdom from some of the greatest thinkers of our time.

This alone was worth the price of admission to this group, but when I discovered the comradery that came with membership in this exclusive society, the value increased tenfold.

If you're reading this, fully engaged and wanting to know more, we're kindred spirits. When I first heard about Russell Brunson's mastermind group, I was eager to learn more. Discovering the company I'd be in and the benefits of this group, I thought, "Sign me up! This is my tribe!"

If you’ve read my blogs or marketing material, you know my thoughts on Dan Kennedy. First, he’s brilliant. Second, he’s a direct mail marketing legend. Third, even though I sometimes annoy him to no end, I have had the good fortune to be able to collaborate with him multiple times on various projects, including books we have written together.

My time with Dan and his teaching has greatly influenced how I run my company and help my clients.

Today’s blog aims to share some of his valuable guidance with you, my fellow business owner and entrepreneur.

One of the key elements Dan says is a MUST in sales is the Show-n-tell trick. You see this all the time in advertisements. A carpet cleaning service might have before, and after images of a particularly cringy carpet, they made look good as new. A hair restoration doctor who shows a full head of hair where before there was only a bald scalp.

My guess is that you’ve heard the old acronym for goal-setting: Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-Bound (S.M.A.R.T.) Goals.

As the President of eLaunchers, a strategic marketing company, I lead my organization by embracing and mastering the art of S.M.A.R.T. goal setting for our clients. While achieving S.M.A.R.T. goals is commendable, collaborating with eLaunchers unlocks a pathway to success exclusive to those possessing exceptional brilliance.

You can’t hit a target you can’t see. This is why you must be specific with your goal setting. At eLaunchers, we spend a great deal of time upfront with each of our clients to be clear on the results they wish to achieve. A vague goal, like “I want to increase sales,” gets you to know where. Clearly stating, “ I want to increase quarterly sales by 15% through a targeted marketing campaign and by expanding product offerings,” is specific and ensures a clear understanding of the desired outcome and the actions needed to achieve it.

The purpose of today’s blog is to discuss a simple tactic for converting curious lookie-loos into satisfied customers, patients, or patrons.

First, let's start with the basics – You are an expert in your field, so make sure you come across as one. You're not just selling stuff; you're sharing your vast knowledge to help people. You can do this by writing special reports, making blog posts, or creating videos. This shows your customers that you're not just a seller but someone with helpful knowledge.

Offering extremely valuable intellectual content free to your customers shows them you care about them and are someone they should trust. This fosters reciprocity, and your generosity inspires them to respond in kind.

Are you familiar with the New Thought Movement?

If you’ve spent any time in the world of personal development and self-help, then you are familiar with this Movement, whether you knew the term or not.

The New Thought Movement started in the late 19^th century. At the time, it had a HUGE impact on how people viewed spirituality and personal growth. It was at that time that thought leaders started emphasizing the power of your mind and its ability to affect all areas of your life.

Leaders of the New Thought Movement are responsible for spreading the idea that if you think good, positive thoughts, they will manifest as good, positive results in your life. Of course, the same holds true in reverse. If you’re negative all the time, bad things will tend to happen in your life.
