I’d like to share a story with you about two
seminar goers.
A few years back two men from different parts of
the country went to an Internet marketing seminar.
Both men were of about the same intelligence and
experience. Both men had similar businesses and
income levels.
During the seminar both of them attended all the
classes and networking sessions. They took
thorough notes and asked questions. In other words,
both men took the event very seriously.
Each went home from the seminar with notebook
full of information and newly acquired knowledge.
One man put his notebook on his shelf where it
collected dust. He never again opened his notebook.
He didn’t implement a single new strategy that he
learned at the seminar.
He continued to make the same amount of
money from one year to the next.
The other man went home from the seminar and
created a “to do” list with his notebook.
He implemented about 75% of the items on his
list.
This man made an additional $40,000 in net
profit within one month of leaving the seminar.
His overall revenue increased over $100,000 per
year after the seminar.
This is a true story.
It has now been two weeks since the System
Seminar.
What new lessons or strategies have you
implemented?
Do you have just a notebook full of material that
is collecting dust?
You invested a ton of time and money into going
to this year’s seminar. I know I did.
The knowledge that you acquired only has value if
you IMPLEMENT the powerful lessons that you learned.
I admit that sometimes I just stare absentmindedly at my massive
to-do list and feel completely overwhelmed and frustrated.
(It feels like I am sinking in quicksand.)
It doesn’t have to be this way.
I learned a secret weapon for my business that has a 100%
success rate to get things DONE!
Are you ready to discover the secret weapon?
The powerful secret weapon is to OUTSOURCE
most of your tasks. I know that the concept of outsourcing
is nothing new to you.
However, you’ve probably never outsourced THIS way
before. You might be completely unaware of the amazing
yet inexpensive talent just a few clicks away.
These days I outsource about 75% of my business. The
stuff I used to agonize over is now somebody
else’s task.
I am freed up to do the things I enjoy and are
most valuable to the bottom line.
For instance, I use Wordpress for a lot of mywebsites.
Wordpress is great software but it drives me clinically insane!
I usually break my entire website if I press the wrong
button.
I now have a gal who does all my Wordpress work.
She is fast because she is an absolute Wordpress wiz.
I’d like to share a few fantastic outsourcing
resources that I use regularly:
1. HireMyMom.com – you’ll find some amazing talent
at HiremyMom.com.
Most of the candidates are stay-at-home moms who live
in the U.S.A. so there are no language barriers.
(I just hired a lady who used to write articles
for a local paper for an amazingly inexpensive
price).
2. Elance.com – You can find talent for almost any
job. I like to use elance.com for transcription work, basic
landing page designs, some programming, audio and
video editing, etc.
(Be prepared to deal with a few language barriers
though.)
3. OnlineJobs.ph – here you will find Philipino
workers who are looking for more long term type
employment.
You can get a full-time worker for
about $450 per month.
Do the math: that’s only $2.82 per hour for
a full-time employee!
You will need to invest some time in training your
new “employee.” However, from my experience,
the right employee is extremely eager to learn and willing
to teach himself/herself if you point them in the right direction.
Finally, one more nugget for you:
Outsourcing only works if you are crystal clear
about your expectations. I suggest you make NO
assumptions about their knowledge of your business
or desires.
You need to literally spell out your expectations
as if explaining them to a small child.
I have a three page job description template I
use whenever I post a new project. It is extremely
detailed.
This makes things easy when you post a new
project because it provides a proven template to
work from.
I posted the template online for you. Feel free to
swipe it and use it as a template for your own
projects.
