Article 2: Ever wondered what a super guru has for breakfast?
Get this -- Average Joe selling Product X - $19.95.
Online Super Guru selling Product X - $97.
Hmmm. I don't know about you, but pass me some of that
special guru juice or whatever else it is the second
guy has for breakfast, 'cause I sure as heck could do
with the extra money.
What about you? Care for some Super Special Vitamin $
added Guru Juice as well?
I got a recipe for a concoction I swear will turn
anyone into a super guru, if they just take two
tablespoons twice a day.
Er, one thing though... Before you drink, what exactly
is an online guru anyhow?
An expert? Someone with all the answers? Someone who
makes over $100,000 per year on the internet?
If so, lem'me tell you right off the bat... Experts
are a dime a million... There ain't no one, and I mean
NO ONE with all the answers, and $100,000 a year
online isn't really too impossible, 'cause then I
know former truck drivers, <smile> pizza delivery guys
and automobile sanitation engineers (yeah car wash dudes)
that make $100,000 look like chicken feed.
Ever wondered then what makes them any different from
you?
Pssst... Well I've been stalking quite a few of them
recently and I think I found something!... And it's not
in their diet, or where they shop for their long-johns.
Last week I snuck inside one of their Super Secret
Club Meetings, and I learnt a Super Secret Four
Step Code that they live by... That anyone can copy!
Trust me, just follow this and voila you may be the
one selling Product X for $97. So forget the juice...
For now at least. Live by the CODE instead!
1) Everything should be made as simple as possible
but not simpler.
That's some Einstein for you. And you don't get much
better than that for a guru, do ya? Well it seems that
our heroes have adopted this belief themselves.
Really! Think about it... Corey Rudl, Yanik Silver,
Mark Joyner, Terry Dean? Ever read their stuff, and
found yourself thinking, "...Is this it?"
Well actually, YES! It is. I mean don't get me wrong,
these guys, do teach very powerful tactics that
literally ooze cash. But for some reason people are
always looking for some 8th wonder of the world from
them.
You ask, "How do I generate traffic?"
They answer, "Write some articles and submit to ezine
editors with your signature file attached."
Simple enough, but your reply, "Is that it?"
Hmmm...
2) This is a business and must be treated like one.
I don't know if you realize, but the people you emulate
don't only sit around on their butts and watch TV.
They work! - Often very hard, especially when launching
a new project.
"$50,000 in 30 days, 15mins a day?"
Get real!
You want money online? The you gotta get up and work
for it. Do something. Start now, don't wait to
perfect it.
Put it out there and work on it as you go along.
3) Testing and stats are King!
The single biggest revelation I got from the Super
Secret Guru Club Meeting I had snuck into, was this...
Test everything, record it, tweak it and test it
again. When you got it, don't screw with a working
system. You can keep testing, but don't make stupid
drastic changes.
Running your stats daily, you must. Don't argue with
me, I was there at that meeting remember. You wanna be
a guru, you gotta keep track of your stats.
Live by the CODE!
Now I can do an entire report on this alone, but let
me give you a little secret... The reason Super Guru
was selling Product X for $97, and Average Joe for
$19.97, even if Super Guru was selling far less
volume, was because Super Guru knew his 'numbers' and
understood at what price point he was making more
profits!
Unlike Average Joe, Super Guru wasn't guessing and
gambling with his advertising. It was all a calculated
investment. So you should *at the very least* know
these stats...
- no. of unique visitors daily
- value of a unique visitor
- conversion of visits to sales ratio
- conversion of visitors to leads ratio
4) Relationships and knowledge are everything.
Now like it or not, I found out that a lot of the top
gurus were <gasp> close friends!
Not necessarily before they became what we call 'gurus',
but certainly after then recognize another person got it
'going on.'
Why?
Because Relationship is Queen!
Napoleon Hill teaches the power of the Mastermind...
The gurus practice it. Simple. Most of them actually
have time set aside every week just for seeking out
new, and strengthening existing relationships.
Result -- Massive Profit$
Suffice it to say, that endorsements are the single
best form of advertising you'll ever come across.
Hint, hint... So gurus of a feather all flock together.
Er... Start flocking. Get out there and create your
own JVs. Start small, try your luck. Email folks and
make them offers they simply can't refuse.
Hey even most Super Gurus will work with you on
something if you can present a project that doesn't
tarnish their name by association, and one that is
highly, (I said HIGHLY) beneficial to them.
And what's more, these same guru often spent several
thousands of dollars on learning material themselves.
Puzzling? --- Not at all!
People spend tens of thousands of dollars on college
educations, that sometimes land them automobile
sanitation engineer jobs. (Hey I'm not knocking
college ok...) but the same folks would cringe at
spending more than $100 total on a lucrative
education in online direct marketing...
Now that my friend is puzzling!
Wanna know what Jonathan Mizel - a true guru -
believes?
He says if you take away all that he has, all those
piles and piles of money, but leave his knowledge and
contacts and he'll make his fortune back in no time!
That's when the meeting was adjourned, secret
handshakes were exchanged and I sneaked out the back
window... ;-)
You still want that guru juice or are you will to give
these four simple points a try?
Get started now, maybe I'll see you at the next Annual
Super Secret Guru Meeting.
Besides -- Guru juice taste horrible anyway!
