In the first outreach… The person will make an instant judgement. Is this person a “taker” or “giver”… In seconds… They will be curiously delighted or cough up disgust. Example: The last 3 Skool community owners I was talking to about buying their community… …all asked ME if I’d be willing to help them with monetization as a partner rather than straight purchase. I am NOT suggesting you use “I wanna buy.” as a ploy… It’s just more proof… When you start a convo with something VALUABLE to give… Whether it is… 👉 Advice. Be careful it doesn’t come off as judgement. There is a RIGHT way to do this. 👉 An invitation to a group of like minded people who share common problems. 👉 A gift that has UTILITY Or… 👉 Capital (Financial or relational) When you start out the convo and relationship as a GIVER of value not a TAKER of TIME… They start ASKING YOU for time and partnering. Getting judged as a “taker” is like an 8 year old getting socks for Christmas… Even if the intention was good...Giving is also about perception. If the kid doesn’t want socks (like most peeps don’t want to jump on Zoom)…the interaction will be judged with disgust. Disgust is a bad taste to put in someone’s mouth on the first “hello.” Rooting for Ya, Travis

My new Giving Fun-Nel is not only getting 1 in 5 people to respond...(see pic 👇) COMPLETE STRANGERS... It's also taking people from 🧊to 🫠🔥 And getting WARM CONVOS open... That is leading to DEALS (Auction Hero) and other types of collabs. It's fun and NOT WEIRD feeling too! (BTW: this is only 72 records of a 4,000 person (and growing) database.) 👉Any interest in the Giving Fun-nel?

Anybody who can give things away and has an offer that solves a problem can do this. 👉Guess how much research I sweated over before he replied?
