Help needed! Can I run this profitable idea past you?
Today's Adventure in the Biz Opp Jungle:
'In which Charlie wants to invent a Death Ray, and wonders how much interest there'd be in him offering up secrets and personal consultancy in a way that's never been done before.'
Hi
I have an idea floating about in my head.
Well, TWO ideas. Unless you're a mad scientist, the first one is nothing you can help me with. It's about building a "Cloud Busting Death Ray". This is an instrument like a giant telescope, attached to a roof. It will be able to blast through cloud, and create instant sunshine.
Then perhaps I can enjoy some semblance of summer.
I would also use this weapon to create Boogie Nights style parties in my garden, with vats of cocktail, '70s funk blasting from gigantic speakers, and models splashing in a child's paddling pool. But don't worry yourself about this. It's for me to deal with.
However, the second idea.... well, this is what I want to talk to you about...
Fancy learning how I make money - in a way you've never seen before?
I've been dabbling in biz opps for over a decade now.
From my disastrous attempts in the late 90s to create a home advertising business... to my membership of the now defunct Guild of Wealth... to my depressing years in an office job, dreaming of an escape... to my time in hiding, learning the TRUE secrets of commercial writing... to creating this website and email service... to writing my first book, The Inbox Tycoon.
All this time I've been thinking constantly about making money from home.
I know you're probably very similar. You've been up at nights, gripped with ideas and dreams. You've made some attempts. At times you got excited and made some cash, then the project collapsed like a bad soufflé.
You've taken some knocks. You're wondering if there's any point to it all.... and yet you're still convinced there's a way to make money from ome.
Just before this email pinged into your inbox, you may have been staring out of a window dreaming of a time where you can switch on your computer and see that cash has popped into your account.... money that can help reduce your working hours.... ease into retirement... sort out that niggling debt... take the family on a break....
So here's the thing....
What if I could make this become a reality?
What if I could sit you down, in front of me, with no more than 20 other specially invited guests, and reveal to you exactly how to make money from your PC.
Not only my deepest secrets, but a couple of some of the wealthiest entrepreneurs I know. This would be something really big. Really personal. No US-style shouty sales patter or big screens full of hyped up mumbo jumbo. Not "upselling" to mega-expensive courses. No hidden agendas.
I would literally help you walk away with the concrete steps you need to achieve PC freedom.
Does this float your boat, or sink your stomach?
Like I say, I am just forming this idea at the moment, and I'll tell you why...
One of the most common complaints I get from readers about these conferences and seminars is that they're too big.
You get hundreds or even thousands people all staring at a guy in a Madonna-style microphone, clapping and hollering like a double glazing salesman. All getting the same rote advice these guys give every year. And sending the multitudes away with the same license deals for the same products.
Yawn.
And not only a yawn - a yawn that's a waste of time and money.
The second complaint is that the day is full of padding. Lots of hype and sales-talk about how you're going to be waterskiing off the coast of your own paradise island if you just follow X, Y and Z... (even though these gurus never look like they've taken a holiday - which makes you wonder).
This is because most conferences feel the need to sell themselves to you throughout the day, knowing that keeping excitement high will lower the number or people who walk out in the morning.
Most of them are based on US-style seminars. They're glitzy, slick and look the part... but when you walk away you think, "Did I actually learn anything new?"
The third complaint is that some of them are too cheap.
Weird complaint, I know, but it's true. You pay £50, £100 or even ZERO, and toddle along, thinking, "Great this is a bargain, I'll learn everything I need to know!"
Then you realise that it's so cheap because the whole event is a pitch for products that cost up to £10,000. They make their millions off the back- end.
No wonder they were selling their life secrets for less than £100!
Hmph. All sounds pretty rubbish then?
Well, no.
Sitting down with someone who knows how to make money... consistently, week after week, year after year.... this is invaluable. Especially if they reveal exactly how they do it, warts and all. And especially if they can do this on a personal level... It's probably the best thing you could ever do - a life-changing opportunity.
...Especially if they reveal their TRUE secrets, not just fob you off with their worst and most over- played ideas.
I know I did it, because it was through direct mentoring from my friend Nick Laight of What Really Makes Money that I got the boost I need. It was his help that pushed me from a dabbler to a DOER... that got me to where I am now.
This is when it struck me...
I'm no millionaire. But I've reached the point now where I make good money from home. I've taken lots of biz opps, tweaked, developed and used them to create my own path.
Now I do what I want, when I want. I've achieved this in a realistic way, without betting, gambling, or risking the farm (by the way, I don't have a farm, that's just a phrase, QUACK QUACK!)
I not only make this money from a few income streams, but I've consulted lots of home start-ups and small businesses on how to make money too. I KNOW there's something I could show people... secrets I could never package into a manual...
But it would need to be intense... face to face... So what if I could meet up with a selected few of my best and most worthy readers... and offer you something you could never get in any of these mass-advertised conferences, seminars or "home visits"?
And not just a blast of info, but a year round partnership?
This kind of personal consultancy would come cheap. I won't pretend that for a second. This would be a high level investment in your future. And not for everyone. Only for the most serious. I'm talking up to 5 figures here. It would be a rare, one off chance to come on the journey with me.
Anyway, it's an idea. In the light of seeing so many conferences and seminars and "home consultancy offers" that - quite frankly - are a load of old tosh, I'm toying with it.
Anyway, enough of my thinking... I'll back next week with a lovely little home business idea that should be right up your alley... a real opportunity of the times...
In the meantime, all the latest is up on my site:
