Aleric Heck just posted this screen shot. How fun would it be to do live auctions on YouTube!? I suppose we could have done it in the comments section anyway but this is an interesting feature nonetheless.

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

After the workshop yesterday I went over to my Tik Tok channel and started doing exactly what Travis taught yesterday and within just a few hours I was in multiple conversations with people who wanted to talk. Growing my community is going to be way easier now! Actively in 9 conversations now and only spent about 20 to 30 minutes responding to ioi's

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.)

We can all be drivers of change. We just welcomed a new Flame who has a sewing community. Sewing? How could that be a movement? How could it be magnetic? So the community members invite other members? So other influencers shout out the community? Here’s ONE WAY: Would you say the world need less peace? Or more peace? My opinion is a lil more peace would make a better world. So… “More peace” could be the small change we want to make. (Common goal) Now all we need is the “unusual way” our community does it. (Uncommon way of getting there.) (Remember: Our mojo definition of a community is a group of people with a common goal and an uncommon way of getting there.) Now… If it jives with the community owner (and it may not) why couldn’t sewing be the way they find Peace?) For the right people who like to sew or want to sew… AND… Want more calm, peace and fulfillment in their life… “Finding peace through sewing.” Would likely be MAGNETIC! A community they’d feel drawn to often. A community they’d feel compelled to share. A community which would grow on its own. Now… I find peace through journaling. If I were able to multi-task… This would be a community idea I could get behind. My point is… Peace is the common goal. There are 1001 ways to get there. There are 1,000,001 common goals like “Peace”… So… 1001 x 1,000,001 =1,001,001,001 (a billion possible combos of Magnetic Movements for your community) I’m confident you, my Flame, can find ONE! You don’t have to be the expert. You just need to be a champion for the small change you and your community peeps want to see. The community pitches in. @Jeff Claassen pitched in with a fantastic ebook we can use to share CFM. @Ryan Carruthers shared a new way to do an email auction. @Dennis Becker and 3 dozenish others have brought in others to our community. About 1/3rd of everyone here was invited by other members!
