Be The Ball? Nope, Be The Prize.

Oren calls this concept “Prizing”.
YOU are the prize. And they have to win YOU over.
Darn That Procrastination
Posted by: | CommentsJust saw this great quote from the late, great Napoleon Hill, author of the famous book:
“Think and Grow Rich”
You have read this one, haven’t you? Anyway, the quote goes like this:
“Procrastination is the bad habit of putting of until the day after tomorrow what should have been done the day before yesterday.” — Napoleon Hill
Those who succeed in this crazy world of ours always take ACTION.
It is the one common thread that brings together all of those who are successful in business. Not just talking about doing something… but actually doing it.
Nothing moves until YOU move.
I recently decided to create my own video studio from scratch. And I talked about it for a while and then I began to take action.
Lots of action.
Massive action.
See, I know that there is a lot of truth in the saying that money likes speed.
Money LIKES Speed.
Think about that one for a minute because it is profound when you absorb the message that working fast — taking action — can actually help lead you to more success in your life.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT THIS AMAZING BOOK:
“An hour-a-day entrepreneur? No, I do not recommend such a thing as worthy ambition. Being an entrepreneur is about who you are, not just what you do. However, Henry did, in fact, escape the corporate world and ramp up a successful business with just an hour a day.
He’s the real deal. Most people make woefully disorganized and unproductive use of their time and talents, so a well-managed and well-invested hour can equal eight, nine or 10 ordinary ones. To that end, I recommend Henry’s book as good burr under your saddle.”
– Dan S. Kennedy, Marketing strategist Author of the popular No B.S. book series, including No B.S. Time Management for Entrepreneurs, speaker, and serial entrepreneur
“This is an important book about freedom. The freedom to work for yourself and pursue your entrepreneurial dreams and never be a wage slave again.
But most important, it’s also a book about achieving that freedom with zero risk. Most people think the only way to be an entrepreneur is to dramatically quit your job. In this economy, that‘s just plain stupid. Henry gives you a step-by-step blueprint on how to build your new venture, while still in your job, for just an hour a day.
So the day you do quit your job, you’re already a successful entrepreneur (which will make your boss even more annoyed). Plus, if you’re already a business owner and have moved beyond the hour-a-day phase, Henry Evans is one of the smartest marketers I know, and this book is packed with strategies and ideas that can only make you money.”
– Chris Cardell, Recognized as Britain‘s leading expert on entrepreneurial success and advanced thinking. He has been featured on BBC, ITV, News at Ten and The Sunday Times
“Can an hour a day really make a difference in your life? Henry Evans’ book, The Hour-a- Day Entrepreneur, proves that anybody can create financial success by following his stories of what works and doesn’t work.
The book is fun, easy to read, powerful and unique. Follow these lessons to success! Every serious entrepreneur needs a copy of this book.”
– Diane Kennedy, CPA, New York Times best-selling author of Loopholes of the Rich, Real Estate Loopholes and other financial and tax books
“Henry Evans is an implementer, pure and simple. He’s driven by a ‘big why’ and focuses his energy on the things that matter most: first, his family. I’ve witnessed and watched him grow his business almost from scratch in record time. That means more time for his family and what’s important. If you want to save yourself years in lost time and thousands of dollars in wasted money, pay attention to what Henry says, does and teaches. He’s condensed the best of the best in a practical, no-nonsense book that’s easy to read, easy to follow, and delivers results. Congratulations, Henry, on doing things most people only talk about or dream of (including writing a book)!”
– Mike Koenigs, CEO and chief disruptasaurus at TrafficGeyser.com
“As I’ve become to know Henry Evans and witness his work ethic and personal life ethics, he truly represents The Hour-a-Day Entrepreneur. I highly suggest every entrepreneur who struggles with balancing getting more done while having the life they’ve always dreamed of, read every word of Henry’s book.”
– Bill Glazer, Marketing Strategist Best-selling author, Outrageous Advertising That’s Outrageously Successful
“Henry’s book rocks! I’ve spoken to Henry’s group, and I’ve seen very few business coaches who care as much as he does. He put a lot into these pages to help you join the ranks of other entrepreneurs or become even more successful.”
– James Malinchak Featured on ABC’s Secret Millionaire Coauthor, Chicken Soup for the College Soul
“Working only one hour a day? What, are you kidding me!? That’s what I would have said if I did not know Henry…or if I had not seen him build his business from nothing to something working between the hours of 8 and 9 every night for two years straight. Henry Evans is one of the rare teachers in the world, someone who actually practices what he preaches. Now, he’ll show you the principles he used to make it happen. Listen – if you are content with mediocrity, then go somewhere else. But, if you really want to make more, work less, and enjoy life, this is the book for you. Read it, study it, and then implement it. It’s just that good.”
– Ed Rush, Former F-18 fighter pilot Speaker and author of Fighter Pilot Performance for Business

Crazy Face Girl Marketing
Posted by: | CommentsI grabbed these screenshots today.
These pictures tell a really great story because it is someone using Outrageous Marketing in a very effective way. They’re being outrageous because it helps to cut through the clutter and get their message read.
The site is from my friend, Russell Brunson. Jon Barrett and I are actually partners with him and run the local San Diego DotComSecrets Chapter each month with our Monthly Marketing Summit. Russell is an amazing marketer and this is one of the promotions he is doing on a weekly basis. They hired two actors, Ashley and Gavin to do their sales pitches on video. When they first started, they put a small clip of out-takes at the end of the video.
See, Ashley is extremely funny and she does a lot of crazy things on video, but they took them all out. Then, I’m guessing just to have fun, they added in a couple of her outtakes at the end of one of their videos.
And, as time has gone by, they’ve put more and more outtakes at the end of the video. I even saw one video where there were MORE outtakes than the actual video! This particular video has about 1 full minute out of 3 minutes that is only outtakes.
Why are they doing this? Because its really entertaining. It really, really works because now people want to watch the video, not just to hear that deal of the day, but to see what crazy antics Ashley and Gavin (he’s gotten into it now too) are doing each time.
I know that this entire promotion is doing extremely well for them, mostly because of the great, funny and entertaining delivery of the message. You can check out their site at www.successetc.com.
Think about how you can use this for your own marketing. How can you have more fun and be entertaining to your customers and prospects? Anyone can be dry and spit back facts at you but making your message entertaining can often be the difference between actually getting your message read or having it pass by along with the 3000 other marketing messages that each person will see today.
Tell me what you’re going to do to make sure your message gets read.

Torrey Pines Business Break-thru
Posted by: | CommentsJust got back from a lunchtime hike and date with my wife. One of my favorite things to do living in San Diego is to walk by the beach. If you haven’t done a hike at Torrey Pines, then you are really missing out! Trust me, head over there (Torrey Pines State Park is where to go).
Alright, here was the breakthru…
I just had a chat with one of my private coaching clients who runs a very successful software company in Wisconsin. While on the hike I had an epiphany (is that spelled right) about something I needed to tell him.
See, this guy has put together a great Internet TV show, he has a great newsletter, and he has great marketing. And he is successful – everything he touches seems to turn to gold.
But something was missing. And this something is the secret I want to share with you.
See, while he content was always top notch. He always gave great information and never held anything back he was actually short-changing his customers and prospects.
Why?
Because he wasn’t putting enough of HIMSELF into his marketing.
We all get concerned about being nice and looking ‘professional’. Truth is that people just want to have a relationship with someone else. Someone they like. Someone they trust. Someone who they feel they know and that knows them.
Bottom line… you gotta let your personality shine through if you want to really connect with others.
You need to let people see who you really are. What are your fears? Your frustrations? Your successes? Your hobbies? What do you do that’s unique and interesting and different that everyone else?
The reason this is important is because it makes you more human. It bonds people to you in a way that giving the best information just won’t do.
Consider it the difference between a rice cake and a piece of decadent chocolate cake. You know one of them is better for you but which one will you eat? The fun one of course. (or else you have a TON of willpower and that was a poor example!)
You want to do the same thing in your marketing. The more fun you can have, the more personality you let shine through, the better people will bond to you, the more they’ll listen to you, and yep — the more they will buy from you.
That’s why I talk about my 2 girls, growing up in Buffalo, being a corporate schmuck, missing my daughter’s kindergarden play because I was on some corporate trip. They all make me more HUMAN to you.
So now back to my friend.
He was doing a great job but wasn’t letting himself shine through. He was being like a rice cake. And that is NOT how he really is. He shared with me all of the fun things that he does in his spare time.
He builds things – big things like houses – by himself. He owns heavy machinery and loves smashing things with his excavator. He has a gorgeous lake house and a fantastic family.
And he’s been told people like to live vicariously through him many times!
All of this leads you to think – he should be sharing more of himself with the world.
What more of YOURSELF can you share with the world?
How can you put more out there so that people bond more with you? When you do that, watch out because people relate to other people – not to corporations.
When my friend does that, watch out Lady Gaga, you may have some competition.
