Hey there

A very good morning to you from

the very fun city of Lagos...

It's the Chief Tribemaster here...

And yes...

Today...

I'm up...bright and early...

Have you ever considered what it takes

to create wealth...

Starting from scratch...

As an expert or thought leader...?

Well...

That's the question that came in yesterday...

CTM, please I've had a rough few months and I'm thinking of leaving my job to start my own thought leadership business. I don't have money. Any advice for me?

Hehehehe...

#sipssuicidecoffee

After probing some more..

It turns out in this case that...

I don't have money means

1. A job that currently pays N260k after tax and pension deductions
2. N450k in saving in the bank
3. A girl friend he doesn't like and sees as a liability

Here's my response:

============================

First...

Don't leave your job.

You're currently single with no dependents...

Except for a girl friend you don't like...

#sigh

Second...

Do yourself and that girl a favor...

BREAK UP!!!

If you get a little bit more smart with you

money...

I think you'd be further along...

With that out of the way...

Here is what I suggest you do:

• Invest as much as you can into Mentorship and the ability to NOT MAKE MISTAKES

Mistakes cost a lot of money.

And when you don't know what you

don't know...

They cost even more.

To collapse time and minimize mistakes...

You need to invest as soon as possible...

And as much as possible in a relationship..

With someone who has achieved what you

want to achieve...

If you really truly can't afford to work privately

with a top quality mentor....

Invest in programs that are relevant for your

stage in business.

A great option for you right now would be the

upcoming Brand Acceleration Workshop...

Over five days you get grounded on what it

takes to market yourself effectively online...

You learn how to sell high ticket coaching,

consulting and training programs...

• Focus on just one thing

All over the internet there are many things

being peddled...

Unfortunately most of them are well meaning

bad advice...

So forget the funnels and value ladders...

Forget the shinny get rich quick business

models...

Find the one thing that you can be great at

when starting out....

Then double down on doing just that.

Forget about multiple streams of income...

Forget passive income....

These are great ideas when you've got money...

But starting out with no money...

They..

Will...

Kill..

You!

Focus!

Focus has a compounding effect.

One process…

One marketing platform…

One everything…

Once you cross N40million ($100k) in sales...

You can diversify...

But right now...

Focus 100% on your strengths.

• Always remember this: ONLY MARKET TO CUSTOMERS

You want high quality leads that convert into high ticket sales?

Market ONLY to customers...

Leverage social media to build an audience

for free...

But never forget that your job is to build

a tribe of customers...

Who ultimately become clients...

Again...

The Brand Acceleration Workshop is the perfect

place to learn how to do this...

Lead generation and sales is the name of

the game when you're just starting out...

Especially without cash...

But it doesn't work the way you've been

taught traditionally...

It's always...

Build an audience...

Separate your customers...

Convert customers to clients...

That's the job...

In the Community Mastery Method™...

That's called the Movement Funnel™...

And that's what we dig into in Day 1 of

the Brand Acceleration Workshop.

• Give! Give!! Give!!! But Don't Give A S#!T

Please excuse my language...

But here's the thing...

And this is very important...

Stop caring about what people think...

People will hate...

People will want you to say “yes” to a lot of things.

People will continue to bring you down...

Even leads will say they didn’t buy because of “x”…

when really it was “y”.

It’s important to have a thick skin and while you need

to accept feedback....

Don’t act on it ....

Just because just a few people said something…

Analyze..

Be patient...

Be logical...

Don’t act with emotion...

THink!

That's the primary reason you have a brain.

HOWEVER...

While you may not care what people “think”...

Be generous...

Give, give, give…

Being known for being valuable and generous are

super powers...

A reputation of value is one that is difficult to beat.

• Once the money starts coming, don't immediately start spending

A mentor of mine once told me:

Until you have N10million as your petty cash in your business, you have no business buying a brand new car. Until you have the equivalent of at least 12 months of revenue tucked away, don't cut your coat according to your size...cut it below your size.

Crazy right?

But when push comes to shove...

Don't upgrade your lifestyle...

Upgrade your investments and bank account.

And in this COVID driven economy...

An MBA (Mega Bank Account)...

Is way more important than a brand new car.

I hope that helps

==================================

So that's it folks..

Tomorrow I'll be sharing with you why you shouldn't

buy into the whole funnel hacking craze...

If you have questions about how to build your

business as an expert...

Send in your questions...

I'll answer them in the daily emails...

Till Tomorrow...

Play a bigger game.
