Let’s see if a OG follow up offer via snail mail will improve coffee date take rate of potential high value partners… Mailing them across the ocean - curiosity should be high enough so that they at least open the letter… peeps probably don’t receive too many hand addressed airmail envelopes from ‘merica… First I thought I stamp them with “250 years” US Navy stamps as they look PRETTY official… but maybe it’s not the best time to make them look like the US armed forces are involved?!?… or is it? 🧐

I just acquired a 1900-person group in the "Acquisition" space... They are pretty much beginners. But... The community is a bit more sluggish than I thought... I'm gonna need to "revive" them. 👉Would you like to follow along? I've already ... renamed the group ...added new cover graphics ...Got the seller to make a short intro post ...did my Dork Bus opener ...now, I'm gonna feel them out for what they're interested in and try to connect with them. ===>Here's where you can follow along Rooting For Ya, Travis PS My first "content" post is on how I get all the deals I can handle when I go Off Market Fishing

When running Auctions it can be FAST and furious the lessons come JUST as fast... What's up Ronin peeps! Wrapped up my first Auction yesterday... Technically I ran one prior to this by they didn't get past the pre PRE Auction test. I killed it when I didn't get enough interest. But we started seeding this new auctions Skool pop-up group on Dec 18th. Ran roughly 7 pre-sell posts. Ended up with 550 peeps in the group (and it's still growing). Even with Christmas prior to the auction we did alright. Next time I'd really NOT like there to be a major holiday right before running it lol. We ran the auction for 3 hours yesterday and called it at the 3rd hour. We had 4 bidders battling it out and they all went over $30k. Winning bid was $35,510. We gave the winner a few extra 1on1 calls... Enrolling the other 3 as we speak. When you're dealing with large amounts like this peeps gotta move money around. Credit card limits come into play etc... So right now we've got $5k, $7k, and $10k deposits with the balance on two of them coming in by Friday. One guy needed to split his winning bid of $35,001 into two payments. He got me $10k yesterday and $7500 is coming in Friday. His 2nd payment is due Feb 1st. The last guy we're still working with to get enrolled. Right now I'm tapping bidders. Which leads me to the lessons part of this post. ✅ One thing I'm not thrilled with is we had 115 bidders out of 550. I'm still not 100% sure what that's about? Maybe the holidays, maybe people just didn't get notified enough about the time. Not sure. But I did send the Bidding Post out as an email about 30 seconds prior to bidding through Skool to ensure everyone got notified the auction was going down . ✅ Something else I learned the hard way... When telling people there was a $250 max bid PER BID... ...people STILL got confused and even started commenting during the auction in the comments about the bidding going OVER $250 lol. As if the MAX BID was $250 TOTAL for the Auction Prize.

I just Zoomed with Ronin @Tom Curtis. He's gotta new opportunity we brainstormed. 🙀I let the cat outta the bag on new stress-free income opportunities for Ronin in SAAS and AI. (We'll be talking about it more soon.) We don't get down to business until minute 4 if you wanna skip the chit chat 😁 Thaaaank you, Tom, for letting me record this for the Ronin!

2 months ago I suggested to Frankie to do an auction around the great results he's getting with his Youtube ad clicks. He was easily on board and told me not to make him think too much and give him the goods to use... Also, Frankie avoids Zooms like the plague so we only had short exchanges on Messenger ... Well, what I realised is that it also made me NOT think :O Besides the fact that Frankie was busy all summer with speaking gigs and stuff, I didn't show signs of leadership. I didn't tell him how the whole process would and should unfold for the best results, what is needed from him etc... That's the first auction I run so lesson learned but it's a pitty because there might have been some potential in there ! What happened yesterday is that he posted the pre-auction post as IF it was the auction post which leads to a few things: 1- it doesn't make sense as the post is written as "IF I was to do ... Would you ...". 2- There are no details as to what the bidding is actually going to be about despite us talking superficially about the WHAT. So now I'm unsure on how to proceed - I've said to Frankie that I'll send him the posts and emails that should go next but he commented on someone's post saying the end of the auction is tomorrow so I'm here to confidently say it's a failure in plain sight :)
