The One Cheat Code I Used to Win the 2 Comma "X" Award
Let’s be real for a second. 👇 ARTICLE LINK HERE We live in a world that tries to convince you that you can build a massive empire entirely from behind a laptop screen. The gurus tell you that if you just have the right funnel, the right ads, and the right Slack channel, you never have to leave your house. You can just sit in your pajamas, drink coffee, and watch the millions roll in. ☕💸 I used to believe that too. And don’t get me wrong—tech is great. Zoom is convenient. But there is a massive difference between being busy online and being powerful in person. I didn't realize this until I read a study from the Harvard Business Review that stopped me in my tracks. They found that a face-to-face request is 34 times more successful than an email. 34X. That means for every ONE deal you close in person, you would have to send 34 emails just to get the same result. 📉 That was the moment I realized that "proximity" isn't just a buzzword. It’s a mathematical multiplier. You can learn content online. But you catch vision in person. Over the last decade, I’ve tested this theory. I’ve gone from sitting in the cheap seats at conferences to sharing the stage with legends like Patrick Bet-David. And I can tell you, the view is very different from the front of the room. Here is the truth about how I used "The Room" to scale to 8 figures—and why you need to get into ours. From The Cheap Seats to The Main Stage I wasn’t always the guy handing out the awards. For a long time, I was the guy sitting in the back row, frantically taking notes and hoping the speaker would drop a crumb of wisdom that would change my life. 📝 I remember paying my own way to attend Brendon Burchard’s events. I wasn't a "VIP." I didn't have a special lanyard. I was just a regular attendee with a dream and a notebook. But here is the secret: I didn't just watch. I studied. I looked around the room and realized that the people on stage weren't aliens. They were just people who had figured out a system and—more importantly—had built a network.
