It’s easy to get caught up in “the rat race”… So I thought I’d share one of my all-time favorite stories. It’s called “The Mexican fisherman and the Harvard MBA” Enjoy! ======================= A businessman was at the pier of a small coastal Mexican village when a small boat with just one fisherman docked. Inside the ...…
If you haven’t noticed by now… I have a habit of repeating myself. I’m in no ways sorry for it. Almost everyone that’s reading this email (myself included) doesn’t need to learn something new. *We* need to be reminded of what we already know. You hear it all the time… “We want something cutting-edge, something ...…
If there’s 1 thing that’s true online… …it’s that “money is attracted to speed.” If you want to be ultra-successful there’s one thing I suggest: Don’t try to be perfect. (Take me for instance. Yesterday I forgot to add the “.com” for the link I sent you yesterday. Doh!) Instead be a habitual action taker. ...…
There’s one thing everyone wants to know… Almost more than anything else. In fact, most people search for this their entire lives. Specifically…they wanna know how to grow a bank account whilst sitting around watching reruns of Seinfeld. I’m no different, either. I can’t tell you how awesome it is to wake up and realize ...…
Lately, I’ve been becoming more of a hippy. Just as I’m trying to give the axe to nasty chemicals in my food… I’m going “green” in my internet marketing, baby. Trying to start a 100% B.S.-and-shenanigans-free alternative for all the people that are fed up with the hype and lies that pervade the industry. Here’s ...…
Heard something stunning yesterday… I was listening to the radio on the way home from the gym when I heard something that truly was shocking. The survey revealed… 88% of people *hate* their job. I knew the number would be high, but 88%?! Further, 96% of the people that admitted to hating their job said ...…
Time for a little Q&A. Let’s jump in… QUESTION: “Robert, how in the world do you manage to stay on top of everything to run your business without going insane? I can’t seem to find the time or energy to get everything done.” Let me ask you a question. Have you ever noticed how a ...…
Something *really* ticked me off yesterday. It must have been the straw that broke the camel’s back. You may have experienced the same… I’m sick and tired of all these over-hyped products that claim to make you rich with a few clicks of your mouse. They seem to be everywhere. It’s gotten absolutely absurd. Everyone ...…
Found something interesting yesterday. It’s from a study done by the Harvard Business Review. They demonstrated that nearly ALL successful entrepreneurs share one common trait. Something that you may not have guessed. In fact, it’s something that most people look down upon. Even more: When you’re young most parents and teachers tell you NOT to ...…
You watch the big game on Sunday? I did and I gotta be honest… This year, I was a lot more interested in the *commercials* than the game itself. Heck – I was more excited about the Puppy Bowl. But I digress. Something REALLY ticks me off about the SuperBowl. I HATE it when people ...…
Got an interesting story for you today. A story that perfectly illustrates a misconception in the world of marketing that is keeping a lot of people broke (when they don’t need to be). Here’s what I’m talking about… I recently was chatting on Skype with a buddy of mine. He’s a smart cookie too. The ...…
Here’s something almost no one will tell you… I DON’T want you to believe a thing I say. Not a word. What I’d much rather have you do is first look at me like I just told you that Kim Kardashian has an IQ of 170. Here’s what I recommend you do… Do it with ...…
I heard an amazing quote the other day… “Most sales advice is as useful as 3D glasses on a blind man.” (Can I get an amen?) It’s no wonder most people quiver when they even heard the S-word. “Sales” is almost thought of as a dirty word in many circles. But let me tell you… ...…
A lot of people have been asking me lately… “What’s the best way to increase my sales online?” Here’s what I usually tell ‘em… (Something other internet marketing “experts” would spit at, and call me a weird-o for even suggesting to you.) Here it is… STOP looking at people like a wallet. BAN the word ...…
Don’t know if you heard about this… The rapper known as “Birdman” plans on betting a staggering $5 million dollars on the outcome of the Superbowl. (He’s betting on New England btw…) His actions aren’t surprising. He once told Forbes that he tries to wear… …at least $1 million of jewelery per day. Why am ...…
No time today for jibber jabber… Let’s get down to business. I’ve compiled a brief list of what I call “The 6 Deadly Sins Of Internet Marketers.” Avoid doing these things and you’ll grow your wallet like Jack’s freaky beanstalk. Ready? *1.)

All successful marketers have one thing in common… They understand how to stretch their marketing dollas’. (Like a bawss.) And there’s one thing that 99.9972% of top-gun marketers do, almost like clockwork. One famous marketer said that doing this one thing “triples his sales without even trying.” Wanna know the secret? Simply it’s this: At ...…
Got this question a little while back… QUESTION: “Robert, what’s the best way to come up with new ideas to start a business online?” MY ANSWER: Don’t. Just don’t. An important caveat… In my experience innovation is HIGHLY overrated, especially for fresh-off-thy-boat marketers (3 years or less experience). If you’re a marketing executive at Apple, ...…
You’ve heard it before… “All advertisers and marketers are evil.” These scum sucking folks will do whatever it takes to part you from your hard earned cash. They’re all evil manipulators that use sneaky tactics to brainwash you into buying crap-ola that you don’t need. Yikes. Before we go any further… Consider this quote: “Advertising ...…
Something hilarious happened to a few years back… I used to have a MISERABLE job bagging groceries. I absolutely dreaded going to work everyday. And to be honest, it wasn’t the job that made making going to work a living Hell…It was one of my bosses. He treated people like garbage. There was no pleasing ...…
Ever seen that movie “The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button?” It reminds me a lot of most internet marketers. Let me explain… Like Mr. Benjamin Button, they approach the life of an Internet Marketer in reverse. And to be honest it’s frustrating as heck when I talk to these floundering entrepreneurs. Most people just DON’T ...…
The glamour of being an internet entrepreneur can seem wonderful… But the sad truth is, it ain’t right for everyone. It’s no wonder why 95%+ of people that try internet marketing never make a single sale. So I thought I’d do something outside the norm. The instructions are simple. Answer the 3 questions (below) honestly, ...…
Don’t mean to get all touchy-feely but… …I’m a flat out “quote junky” and I had to share a gem with you: “The greater danger for most of us lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low, and achieving our mark.” ~Michelangelo (the Italian Renaissance ...…
I don’t know how you feel about it… But going through the ups and downs of trying to start a (profitable) business can feel both exhilarating and exhausting at the same time. Some days I feel like I could work for 14 hours straight (a few times I have…) without any sign of slowing down. ...…
