Ima bookworm. Do you like book reccos? I tend to explain WHY I love a book. I've got a bunch that are off the beaten path. Most peeps have never heard of. Rooting For Ya, Travis

One of the most useful questions of my life for focus, productivity and peace: 👉 Whose business am I in? Byron Katie says there are only three kinds of business: Your business. Their business. God’s business. Now… Back to my business! Rooting for Ya, Travis

A loving warning... When you do auctions... Do NOT allow SIDE DEALS during the auction. You will get people THROWING MONEY at you during the auction. Don't take it! Why? How is it fair if a side deal is done for $7,000... And the auction ends at $12,000? And the auction winner is paying $5,000 MORE than the side deal. You KNOW... PEOPLE TALK! Eventually the "side deals" that are better than what's being auctioned gets found out! Which not only spoils personal reputations, but spoils auctions! Post auction deals for participants is FINE... That's actually WHY we run the auction on Planet Mojo! Obviously it must be a "lesser" value than what the auction winner got (unless you're doing an Everyone Can Win auction like we just had.) KEEP OUR AUCTIONS FUN AND HONEST! It may be tempting... But if they are willing to offer $$$ during the auction... They will still buy the "result" after the auction. PLUS... YOU WANT people BIDDING in the auction... ...NOT a bunch of side wheeling and dealing going on. Rooting For Ya, Travis

In 2005... I joined a paid forum for affiliate marketers. (A forum was the "community" back in the day.) The owners did something really smart. They had a section of the forum where you could go in and pitch products. It was smart because it kept the pitches out of the rest of the forum. Despite the forum being full of buyers... Most people who posted their pitches made ZERO sales. There were some really talented copywriters in there. I tried my hand at it too. I'd post picture-perfect posts: *Here's what I got *Here's what it will do for you *Here's why you need this now Blah... Blah... I MIGHT make one or two sales. Then... Because I LOVE to experiment. I decided to throw out most of what I knew about copywriting. And do what came naturally... Like in a conversation. Instead of a big long azz sales pitch (which I'm not really against, but the timing needs to be right.) 👉I opened a CONVERSATION for IOIs 👉I looked for IOIs (Indicators of Interest as we've talked about here.) 👉I then CONTINUED the CONVERSATION 👉THEN I would make an INVITATION This was such a HUGE breakthrough... I still remember most of the numbers TWENTY YEARS LATER... The first product I did this with was a Google Ad Spy product, for which I got a $ 30-per-month commission. Here's roughly what happened: 💥I opened convos with roughly 50 people (from ONE post) 💥40 became "leads." 💥THIRTY PEOPLE BOUGHT! I remember the numbers because I remember I got $900 per month from that one convo opener campaign. The PRINCIPLES still work today! Because while Myspace, Tumblr, Squidoo and so many other things are in the rear view. Psychology doesn't change much. When I get an IOI and open a CONVERSATION... I can turn 50% or more of the IOIs into LEADS (Leads on Demand) And at least HALF of the leads turn into customers. (Sales on Demand) CURRENT EXAMPLE: Our first auction here in CFM: 9 out of 10 Flames are buying Leads On Demand and HALF of them are upgrading to Sales On Demand. (I think that'd be higher, but some folks have their sales process down and are pros already.)

Ready for some fun? I think this will make it even more fun! It could poop the bed? Also… Ignore the end! I’m an idiot!! Will ya bid a buck? 👇 https://www.skool.com/community-fire-mojo-6715/would-you-bid-1-for-leads-on-demand?p=135173f5
