IF, I found a company willing to auction off a 1 year license for it's biz dev software, does it have to be only one winner and the other high bidders get a different offer/package? Or can we auction off multiple 1 year licenses in an auction (and tap in the rest with a different offer/package)? Or does that de-value the auction? Curious if others have tried this.

I wish I were the confident, winner type... But Ima loser because I've got... No big BF deal today… Howeeeevvaaa... My new book: Rooting For Ya is waiting for ya on Amazon. It’s a steal. I’m thinking if you add it to your cart with the rest of the BF shopping… JUST… One tactic. One idea. One strategy… From the book might pay for EVERYTHING in your cart today.

Help me see the edge of the cliff? **For those with FIRST HAND experience ONLY** I'm setting up an auction for a bundled offer. I have a handful of excited partners with killer offers. It'll take place in a Skool group. I'll set it all up and put on the auctioneer hat. The partners will basically co-op their audiences into a cloned audience. Each partner will use their affiliate link to invite others into the group (I write the copy...although they write way better than I do). There will be an invite for group members to continue into a paid tier after the auction where I will show them how I set up the whole deal. The partners will get recurring income (50%) from the paid tier. I plan to run auctions every quarter in the group and bring in new partners each time. My offer is basically building them a new audience, handling all the heavy lifting, and send them money. Because the partners will be using their affiliate link for the auction invites, I can track how many people they invite to the auction and I'll do the rev split based on that. The real benefit is the new audience they can tap into with future offers/auctions. It's been super easy getting partners locked in. I just want to make sure I run this right for them.

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.)

Thaaaaank you for making our first community auction so FUN! Special thanks to @Leandro Langeani our high bidder! I’m excited to mix mojo with ya! Did you have fun? Rooting for Ya, Travis
