The ceramics teacher announced on opening day that he was dividing the class into two groups.
All those on the left side of the studio, he said, would be graded solely on the quantity of work they produced, all those on the right solely on its quality. His procedure was simple: on the final day [...]

Let’s say you have a dinner party.
You send out invitations.
You arrange for the catering.
You have the finest wine.

And when the guest knocks on the door, what do you do?
You send your ‘personalised robot’ to say hi and welcome the guest through the doors, right?
Just like you do with your autoresponder message every single day.

You spend [...]

You’re probably moaning about how you can’t increase prices.
The Yes-Yes is a systematic way to makes prices work for you. We’ve tested …this Yes-Yes Factor across products and services for the past 6 years. It doesn’t matter what the price (and we’ve tested products/services from $50-$10,000): It just works.
And the only reason it won’t [...]

How do you price a home study version of your course?
Do you offer it at a 10% discount?
Or 20% discount?
Or 50% discount?
How about a 0% discount instead?

Most of us don’t realise the attraction power of two-minute noodles.
So let me explain…

Two minutes, maybe three minutes later, you’re burning your tongue as you wallop down the [...]

On Wednesday we had a Brain Audit sale, a live workshop sign up, and a 5000bc membership drive.
And the server was upgraded the previous night. And a new version of Joomla put in.
I woke up that morning and hmmmm…
There were close to fifty emails saying ‘You’re page isn’t working.’
Sure enough, no one could buy any [...]

Ok, so here’s a sponsor message: If you haven’t already got yourself a copy of the Brain Audit, make sure you do so. I’m giving a special additional bonus because we goofed up so badly when the first email went out.

Ok, end of sponsor message (heh, heh)

Don’t Forget To: Share and Enjoy:

You are peachy keen to record an infoproduct.
You are sooooooooooo keen to record some audio.
Or some video. Or get something written.
So you sit at your computer and record the audio. Or video.
But your voice sounds flat.
And that’s because you’re not used to speaking to a computer.
Or to a video camera.
So you start off nice and [...]

When we sit down to do a project, we never seem to see the end of it.
Let’s say you want to create a simple information product such as a fifteen minute audio.
Technically speaking, this audio should take you fifteen minutes to create.
If you sit down and write an outline, it should take you thirty minutes [...]
