Now that I have your attention… @Travis Sago is offering to spill the beans on his new Giving Fun-nell to Wrangle Partners but he says not enough Ronin are chiming in! From the early results he shared, this Fun-nell looks like “the sex”, as the kids used to say… Would you help your fellow Ronin out and go vote on this poll so we can get the party started? Please vote here 👈

I bombed out with a local page admin for my city of Lynchburg last week. However, in my chat he told me I should try to do an auction in a copy cat group that he doesn't run because they allow promos. I took his suggestion and created a very general pre-auction post to see if anyone was interested. Even though its a copy cat group, there's some good activity inside from legit local peeps so I felt this would work. Here's the very general post I made: I'm looking to have some fun while helping out local businesses in our community. If a local business were to auction off a valuable service starting at a $1 and we had some fun, friendly competition, would you throw in a bid? Let me know if you'd be down to clown! 1. Holy schmokes! I'd love to have some fun and help out a local business! 2. Maybe... depends on what I'm bidding on. 3. No way dude! You win dumbest idea of the year award! After I posted I realized that option 1 probably wasn't the best way to frame it but I couldn't edit the poll in the group. Anyhow, I checked back this morning and there were only 4 votes. 3 / 4 were option 2. Not very encouraging TBH. I decided to do an anchor post in the group and highlight that the majority of voters seemed down to have fun depending on what was up for bid. I checked back a few minutes ago? 19 votes now and 11 / 19 are for option 1. So 15 more votes in just a few hours. Granted, these aren't earth shattering results but there has been a big spike in votes so I'm happy about that. The data that's showing so far is disproving my theory that most people will go for option 2. My next anchor post will be asking what types of services people would bid at least a buck on. Maybe we'll see another spike in votes and some feedback so I know what businesses to approach.

This dude has a huge community. He has no clue who I am. It doesn't matter. The GIVING FUNnel turns them from cold, to curious, to "OMG Let's talk." Check out the pics 👇 Rooting For Ya, Travis PS I shared about the Giving FUNnel yesterday. I polled for interest. Out of 518 Ronin, only 67 are interested enough to tap a button. Maybe it's the holidays talk blocking my poll? I dunno? If there's not more interest I'll make this a $5k workshop or something and keep it for a few super committed Ronin. We. Will. Clean. UP!

Still have about 4 hours left to go but I wanted to drop in and share my excitement. Very real possibility of pulling 6 figs on this one. Not bad for @Marcus Karl & I's first auction! LOOONNNGGGG writeup coming next week to share the good, the bad, and the ugly. :)

Totally gave me some ideas for the auction I have tomorrow!!! If I can get enough people to my Skool group to participate. Tons of interest on the partner's post (my copy), but only like five people came over to the group. I may wear out my FB messaging privileges today. haha
