    • Hey Guys,

      Rich Schefren here with a bold promise...

      If you'll just answer one question a day for the next five days...

      you'll experience bigger success this year than you currently believe possible.

      I've been using this secret strategy for the past 4 years and the results simply speak for themselves.

      I invented it after watching a movie.

      Did you ever see the movie-

      Groundhog Day?

      Groundhog Day is a comedy starring Bill Murray, who plays Phil Collins a weatherman short on friends, long on ego and sarcasm. In a made for movie time warp, Phil Collins gets stuck having to relive the same day over and over again.

      After a rocky start, Phil attempts to come to terms with this new reality by making each new day better than the day before.

      His goal is to turn his day into a PERFECT day. And because each day is the same as the day before, he's got an edge...

      Each morning Phil reviews the past day to determine what worked and what didn't.

      Only then does he set out to repeat the right actions and change or eliminate the wrong actions.

      What Does Phil Collins Know That You Don't?

      It should come as no great shock that your current level of success (or failure) is primarily caused by the actions you did or didn't take up to this point.

      It sounds like common sense, but it's not so common.

      So if you're setting a new goal or dusting-off an old one wouldn't it make sense to take a look at what worked and what didn't?

      Do you think most people do?

      You would think so. I know I certainly would.

      But we'd both be wrong!

      Somehow, most people forget to review their past when making plans for the future.

      They almost never take into account what's worked and what hasn't.

      It's crazy, it's like we all experience an annual case of amnesia.

      Each new year is approached as if we didn't already have the experience of what worked for us and what didn't.

      But you can make a perfect day or year - just like in Groundhog Day.

      How? You need to first look at what worked and what didn't - starting with 2006. This way you can change what hasn't worked and take the good stuff with you into 2007.

      So How Can We Mine the Gold from Last Year?

      The best way to get the information we need about what happened in 2006 is to answer a few simple questions.

      Today we'll go over question #1 - In my next posts we'll go over the next 4 questions. We need them all to get where we want to go.

      Before we continue let me first say that I am using the word "we" for a good reason. I have gone through the same steps that I'm suggesting for you.

      In a moment I will share with you the results I got when I looked back on the last 12 months in my business.

      First, though- let's look at what worked well in 2006.

      Your First Big Question

      What Were Your Greatest Accomplishments In 2006?

      Here's where you get to relive the glory days of the past year. Think about what you did right, what you're most proud of and what really worked for you in 2006.

      Now's not the time for modesty. Think big when you reflect back on your brightest accomplishments from last year.

      If it worked for you before, you'd be nuts not to put it to use again.

      To give you an idea what I'm talking about, here are a few brief examples from my own list:

      WHAT WORKED FOR ME:

      Accomplishment 1 - Creating and Publishing The Manifesto And My Coaching Program

      Last summer I released the Internet Business Manifesto, The Missing Chapter and The Final Chapter. (If you haven't read them yet - you can get them right here: Get The Manifesto.)

      These lead to me to open my coaching program, which took in $3.5 million in only 50 hours and 14 minutes. It set a new record for an Internet product launch, which surpassed the record held by my client Mike Filsaime with his Butterfly Marketing launch.

      Niether Mike's record nor mine lasted long though, because another client Brad Fallon and his partner Andy Jenkins then launched Stomper Net, which grossed over $10 million.

      Takeaway 1 - When you give away excellent content for free and give it away again and again, it's easier for prospects and customers to choose YOU when they make an investment.

      Why? Because they get a sense of you and trust you. This is Business, not trickery- when you provide value - people get it.

      I go over this in my Manifesto's Missing Chapter.

      You must be the expert in your niche and you must be willing to prove it.

      I've been teaching this crucial concept since day one.

      Coincidentally, I just returned from a mastermind meeting where, I'm glad to say, everyone was saying the exact same thing. Only I was saying it last year. Now it seems my ideas are mainstream. Giving away great content is critical to your online success.

      Accomplishment 2 - Assembling A Business Dream Team

      We're not only growing in cyberspace, but in the real world too!

      We've Expanded Our Staff of Talented People!

      If you've been with me for a while, you know about Dan and Sheila, two very special people greatly responsible for my success to this point.

      And this year our projections show us above $10 million.

      So I knew it was time to assemble a bigger team that could execute well and take us to the next level.

      They would have to support me and Strategic Profits in all projects already slotted, and prepare us for even faster growth as market demand for our products has gone off the charts. Without the bigger team we were saddled with constraints.

      Takeaway 2 - Who you bring on when you first start growing your business makes all the difference in your success. The right people, with the right skills and energy will make or break you.

      As every farmer who wants to harvest knows, the right crop with no sun or rain, won't grow. The right people are like the perfect weather conditions...

      A Quick SideNote: I had a head start on this one because of lessons I learned years ago when I started other businesses. Who you hire to work with you counts for more than you can imagine, and mistakes can be costly.

      So as Strategic Profits started bursting at the seams, and I knew it was time to bring new people on board, I called an old friend, Paul. I asked him if he could spend the next five weeks recruiting the 'A' players for me that I needed to succeed.

      Paul worked 6 days a week, 12 hours a day placing ads, conducting phone interviews and meeting with prospective team members.

      And when he reduced each pool of applicants from five hundred or so all the way down to five - I conducted interviews with the five finalists. Then I did the second (and sometimes third interviews) with my top choices.

      As I look around my office right now I can tell you that all that hard work was worth it. It has really paid off for me.

      The first people you bring on to your team can either catapult your business to the next level or sink it. I've experienced both ends and know that you must absolutely spend the time it takes to find the right people.

      I always laugh when I hear others talking about how hiring the right people is easy.

      It's not. And anyone who tells you otherwise is either a fool, got lucky or doesn't know.

      But there is a way to go about hiring the best and in future posts I will share what I've learned. I've put together effective hiring systems over the past twelve years of my business life.

      Systems that have enabled me to hire well over 500 of my own employees, many of whom are now presidents or senior directors in companies like Diesel Jeans, Giorgio Armani, Dolce & Gabanna, Prada, E-trade, American Express, etc.

      Enough about hiring winners. Let me tell you about the ones I snagged:

      1. Brian - Brian was a corporate turnaround expert. He was the 'go to guy' that several major banks would bring in when one of their big loan clients was in jeopardy of defaulting on their multi-million dollar loans.

      He would be the temporary CEO for a year or two and get the company profitable again, pay off the banks and ride away into the sunset with a very fat paycheck.

      Where was Brian before that? He was in charge of the manufacturing and distribution of every AOL CD you ever got in the mail or found in your shopping bag at the mall.

      Brian is now Chief Operating Officer of Strategic Profits, freeing me up from day to day responsibilities as he runs the company.

      2. Dwain... I stole Dwain away from his position as the Managing Director of one of the best direct response advertising agencies in the country with clients like Weight Watchers, American Express, Time-Life Books, etc.

      I was actually a client of his agency back when I was experiencing explosive growth with my chain of hypnosis centers. It's great to reconnect with Dwain because his proven track record provides a solid foundation as we build our new business.

      In addition to these A-players, we've added even more talented people to take over in other critical areas.

      How can I be sure they are so talented?

      If you've already read The Missing Chapter then you won't be shocked to hear that we held AUDITIONS for these positions.

      We brought in groups of people who had to try out, for up to two weeks at a time.

      We then picked the cream of the crop and sent the others home with our apologies and their pay for the period they were here.

      There's a lot to be said for try and buy. After DOZENS of people passed through our doors, we built a great team of winners.

      They are:

      Ken - Content creation and marketing copy expert

      Peter - Content creation and research expert

      Ricardo - Day to day in-office accounting expert

      Carlos - Web, video and audio expert

      Lauren - Graphic creation and design expert

      Artie - World-class software developer

      Accomplishment 3 - We're Moving to New Offices - Built to Suit the Needs of Our Growing Enterprise!

      All of these new people barely fit in our current location.

      So we signed a lease last Friday and will be moving into our new office in Delray Beach (just down the road from Agora's offices) in mid-February.

      It's not soon enough - but getting it done the way we want takes time. Creating the right atmosphere, not to mention all the new technology connections takes the right timing. After living in cramped overflowing offices for a while now, we want our new 'home' to be done up right.

      I'm actually going to be giving a presentation on what it takes to go from a one-man band to orchestrating a staff of close to 20 people for my coaching clients next month at our bi-annual seminar.

      You too can get there from here!

      Takeaway 3 - As Soon As You Can, Get Out of Your House

      My super-successful client Mike Filsaime once asked me, "How much money do I need before I can move into an office?"

      That's a very good question to ask yourself, too. Running a business from home doesn't work for most people. It's like the separation of "church and state." If your home is your retreat and resting place from the world, and it's also your office - hmmm. It only gets worse if your workstation is in your bedroom.

      Sure it's been done, but it often creates an unhealthy mix for lots of reasons.

      I'm not saying go out now and get an office if you can't afford it - but there's a lot to be said for aiming for that ASAP - your level of commitment and professionalism goes off the chart when there is the monthly lease payment to think about. No more playing at work!

      When you really want to build and grow you can't assemble a staff like I have - and be working out of your home.

      Mike took my advice and so should you.

      Accomplishment 4 - Strategic ProfitsBusiness Growth System Got Better- a lot more accessible and user-friendly.

      We've learned from what our customers said they wanted and created a new improved eLearning platform for BGS. You can actually get to the next level easily at your own pace with our new platform and step-by-step approach.

      Not only will you get what you need to know quicker and more intuitively, you'll have more time to think about what's next for you and then join my new Over My Shoulder Group coming soon to a web screen near you.

      Takeaway 4 Create and Develop One Core Product that Makes You a Stand Out!

      Most online business owners create one product and go on to the next and then to the next. But by developing a core product and constantly making it better, you can dominate your niche and totally eliminate your competition. It works!!!

      Some marketers launch separate ventures one after another. Instead of perfecting and developing their one core product they leapfrog from one lily pad to the next - along with their competitors. Who wants to be in the 'me too' business when you could be the 'me only' contender in your marketplace?

      More isn't necessarily better when it comes to product niches. Standing out in one field is where the money is.

      So What About Your Best Of 2006?

      Even I feel inspired by what worked for me in 2006. What about your 2006... Do some real winners jump out at you? If it's tough to look back on, that means you can't ignore it! More later...

      In building your business in 2007, make sure you have everything that worked for you last year on your 'Victory' list.

      That's why I'm here writing you today. Building on what works is the foundation for future success.

      All the great athletes build their game around what works. That's the core.

      So if you're like me, you'll take a good hard look at the list of great things you've done in 2006 and make sure you keep what works in your plans for this year.

      Then put your list in a safe place until you return to this same web site. You will need it when we continue with your plan to make this year the best it can be.

      Your Success in 2007 Depends on You - and What I Have For You in My Next Installment

      We started with the good news: Your Successes in 2007.

      We'll give you a day or so to think about your accomplishments - because the next question will matter more. You know my view on constraints.

      To Higher Profits,
      Rich Schefren
      Strategic Profits

      P.S. I'll be letting you know a little more about my new Over My Shoulder Group that is sure to give you the an edge eliminating your business problems in 2007.

    • Hey Guys,

      Here's a concept that can make you a TON of money.

      It's called visitor value.

      Now, you've PROBABLY heard of visitor value before.

      But I want to explain why you're probably not paying as much attention to it as you should.

      As you know, I'm a big fan of metrics. I think it's important to measure and improve everything you do.

      Even if you don't measure everything all the time, it's good to establish benchmarks to see how well things are performing in your business.

      Back to visitor value.

      The reason visitor value is so important is that it gives you a bottom line figure that you can use to measure the effectiveness of your business. But wait, there's more!

      By focusing on increasing your visitor value, you'll be improving all aspects of your business.

      You'll have to offer better products, that in turn deserve higher price points.

      You'll have to write better sales copy to increase conversion of visitors into buyers.

      You'll have to offer up-sells and cross-sells to drive up visitor value even higher.

      And what happens when you start doing these things?

      You start acting like a real business.

      While you may think visitor value is just a number, there's much more behind it. Multiple dimensions of profit can be discovered if you know how to analyze this critical metric.

      We've only touched the surface of visitor value, so if you're not currently tracking it, then you should figure out how, as soon as possible.

      And if you are tracking visitor value, then make a list with 20 ideas on how you can increase it, then pick the top three and start implementing them immediately.

      To Higher Profits,
      Rich Schefren

      P.S. A lot of people are asking how to get into my coaching programs. But the short answer is there are no open spots at this time. I'll be making a few structural changes (to accomodate for my newer, more powerful material) and when I'm ready, I'll open the doors again. So stay tuned, but until then, I suggest you take a look at your visitor value!

    • Hey Guys,

      I hope you're doing well!

      And I hope you're implementing some (or hopefully MANY) ideas from my recent reports.

      Now as you probably know by now, the launch was NOT what I expected.

      As usual, I'm writing something up that I think you'll find very interesting (which you can then turn into business profit).

      I don't want to go into detail here, but what I'm about to reveal will be something that you've never heard from a well know marketing personality.

      It's all about analyzing what works and what doesn't.

      And facing the current reality can be one of the biggest challenges that any business owner can have.

      So for now, please review the Internet Business Manifesto, The Missing Chapter, and The Final Chapter.

      If you study these documents carefully, especially the sections on planning and strategy, then you may be able to discern what's coming. ;-)

      To Higher Profits,
      Rich Schefren

      P.S. The main lesson in this post is that there are probably things in your business that you're not "owning up to". These might be problems or issues that you just don't want to face. They must be addressed. Your profits will thank you for doing so.

      • How To Get V-I-P Access

      • 92 Comments
      • Posted In News
        Add Your Comment
    • Hey Guys,

      It's ALMOST here.

      I've been putting the finishing touches on the Internet Wealth Alliance, and things are just about ready to Rock and Roll!

      Since so many of you have shown SIGNIFICANT interest in the program, I am providing a V-I-P Pass that allows you an HOUR head start to evaluate the offer and join the program.

      This will allow those who have ALREADY made the decision to buy, NEARLY guaranteed access.

      Some of you will need a little extra time to decide, and this will give you a few extra few minutes, without having to worry about missing your opportunity to join.

      --------------------------------------------------------

      TO GET ON THE "V-I-P" List:

      1.) Watch your inbox at 2PM Eastern Time Tomorrow.

      2.) Grab one of the 1500 passes, before they're gone!

      --------------------------------------------------------

      Now, there is one last thing to clarify.

      People are anticipating a VERY HIGH price point.

      I can assure you, it will NOT be five figures, as some of you have speculated. It will be affordable for those who are SERIOUS about taking their game to the next level.

      Remember, if you want an hour head start, be sure you pay CLOSE attention to your inbox tomorrow.

      To Higher Profits,
      Rich Schefren

      • Answering The Most Pressing Question

    • Hey Guys,

      November 1st is ALMOST here.

      So I want to take this opportunity to clear up the MOST frequent question that I've been getting about the Internet Wealth Alliance.

      IS the program for beginners?

      Answer: YES, the program is suitable for newbies. But here's the CATCH...

      The program is designed to teach you the invisible factors that are CRITICAL to know in order to build a multi million dollar, online business.

      It's not necessarily the program that will teach you the technical aspects of how to setup a website. While we will provide you with software that will help you do this (if you need), please understand that it will not be the central focus of the program.

      Another question that I've been getting is about the price of the program. Here's what some people are speculating:

      "I was prepared for a $25k price tag on this one, but $50k seems a little steep to me. But I understand the essential need to keep the alliance free from those who will drag it down. Maybe Rich will set on a price somewhere in the middle."

      I think you'll be relieved to know that while we've considered price points in this range, we've decided to make it MUCH more affordable.

      Finally, availability.

      While we have not made any official decisions... ...please understand that the program WILL be limited.

      Also, keep in mind that there are approximately 30,107 serious entrepreneurs who are EAGERLY anticipating the launch of the program, which means it WILL sell out VERY quickly.

      If, on Wednesday, you would like a chance to join the program before the general public, (in order to beat the crazy rush) then pay CLOSE attention to your inbox over the next few days.

      To Higher Profits,
      Rich Schefren

    • Hey Guys,

      Yesterday I told you that something VERY important was going to be announced at 3PM, today.

      Well, it's just after three and my keyboard is still SMOULDERING. Why? Because I've got another KILLER report for you.

      You can download your copy here.

      I wrote it on the charter plane on the way to the BigSeminar. It's not fancy. There are NO slick graphics. But I believe the content will blow you away.

      It's short and to the point.

      It addresses a number of questions I've been getting over the past few days, and it drives home the most important points that MANY people missed in The Final Chapter.

      My call with MaryEllen was cancelled because we could not decide on whether or not people were ready (or capable) of implementing the extremely powerful strategies in use by our offices.

      Should we make the program just for beginners? Or should we unlock every door and leave no stone unturned, throwing in every advanced marketing technique we know?

      MaryEllen made the point that many people are just starting out.

      I countered with NUMEROUS examples from my coaching program of clients who have gone from a one man shop to a small virtual team doing millions of dollars per year in revenue.

      So I know you guys can do it.

      That argument lead us to a compromise. The Internet Wealth Alliance will be for BOTH groups. Beginners and advanced marketers.

      How can we do this? The solution was rather simple

      .

      We decided to categorize the program into two tracks. Beginner and advanced. That way, if you're an advanced marketer, you can choose to participate in only the advanced material. Of course everyone will get access to all of the strategies and tactics, but it will be delivered in a way that can be tailored to your experience level.

      Now I realize that not everyone will put these ideas into practice.

      It takes an extreme level of dedication and commitment to build a multimillion dollar online business, but it CAN be done.

      And the strategies you will have access to are the BEST in the business. So I'm hoping you can prove me to be correct when I say that you ARE ready to put these powerful ideas to work in your business.

      Well I've carried on far too long.

      You need to grab my new report. And trust me, you'll want to read it well before Monday afternoon. ;-)

      You can download your copy here.

      Please read it CAREFULLY and leave your comments on the blog. As you know, I take your feedback VERY seriously.

      Warm Regards,
      Rich Schefren

      P.S. I know some of you are STILL trying to secure a seat in the Internet Wealth Alliance. I do NOT play favorites. Please be patient and be ready for our email on Wednesday, November 1st, at 4PM EST.

    • Hey Guys,

      As you can probably imagine, my office has been getting HAMMERED with phone calls and emails regarding the Final Chapter.

      The MAIN question people are asking is, what's the deal with your next program, and how can I get in?

      Up until now, I've been TRYING to keep it under wraps.

      I REALLY want the ideas from the Final Chapter to resonate with everyone. I want people to take their business to next level.

      And I STRONGLY believe the Manifesto trilogy can do tha

      t.

      The many, many emails and blog posts I've seen are FILLED with brilliant observations and insights on how to grow a business.

      But since the doors to my office are CAVING in, and my staff is tired of answering the same questions over and over, I need to address the issue RIGHT now, once and for all.

      So here's the OFFICIAL statement:

      YES, I'm introducing a new program on November 1st @ 4:00PM Eastern Time (mark your calendars).

      ...and yes, it's going to be my best program to date.

      Now as you know, I've made the transition to working with Agora nearly full time, in addition to working with my current clients.

      But there is MASSIVE internal debate going on about the program.

      Everyone involved, (Early To Rise, Strategic Profits, and my Internet Marketing Guru friends) ALL have different ideas on how to make this program the greatest program EVER to be offered.

      Here's the main issue, and I'm hoping you can help me out.

      The program that is coming up on November 1st is going to be a hybrid program. It's based off the knowledge and experience of the world's most successful direct response business, Agora Publishing.

      Agora (more specifically Early To Rise) is essentially a goldmine of business building knowledge. I've been mining their wisdom for a while, and even with my background and experience, I still can't find an end to the mine shaft.

      So that leads us to the issue at hand. We have what we believe is a VERY strong foundation for an INCREDIBLE program.

      It's called the Internet Wealth Alliance and it's built around four fundamental principles. Briefly, they are:

      1. List & Relationship Building: The cornerstone of any online business that has longevity. We'll show you the most powerful ways to build a list, from the pros who have more names than any other direct response business in existence. Absolutely no one else can claim that. We're talking millions and millions of names here.

      2. Alliances and Joint Ventures: You can't do it alone. You need alliance partners to expand the market and to leverage the efforts of others. You understand this already, especially if you've read any of my work. But in this program, we'll show you how to develop powerful alliances, and even facilitate joint ventures between members, and potentially (IF it's a good fit, Early To Rise).

      3. Market Analysis: It's important to provide the market what they want. This program will teach you how to find and develop your niche, and (this is UNPRECEDENTED) share some of our marketing experiments for you to see what's hot and what's not. This program will teach you advanced competitive intelligence, and go into great depth on how to setup a front-end that works. Agora is spending hundreds of thousands of dollars per year on market tests. Sharing some of these results with you is valuable BEYOND calculation.

      4. Proven Direct Response Models: To top things off, even if you know how to build a list, in the right niche, and have access to the right joint venture partners, that doesn't guarantee success. Case in point, the big Internet gurus. Even THEY are doing things backwards. This fundamental cornerstone will teach you how you can build a multimillion dollar profit model that works, and works VERY, VERY well.

      So there you have it, the four cornerstones of the program, complete with a panel of experts to guide you through every step of the way.

      Everyone I talk to says this program WILL be the HOLY GRAIL of Internet Marketing programs, since it's grounded in real world experience (and success) that is second to none.

      But I STILL need to know one thing in order to feel that this program has everything it needs in order to go down in the history books as a massive success.

      What is the ONE question that you absolutely need to have answered, in order for this program to be THE best investment of your life?

      Please answer this one question, by commenting below.

      More than ever, I am looking forward to your important feedback.

      Warm Regards,
      Rich Schefren

      And if you missed it, DON'T worry, we have some more calls lined up. Please don't call the office and ask if you can sneak on, it's not physically possible.

      But to those of you that did get in... You're NOT off the hook just yet. Registrations were coming in SO quickly we couldn't turn the page off in time...

      To be exact, we handed out 1061 registrations.

      Please be sure to call in early so you ensure you don't get booted. If you were lucky enough to get registered in time, then you definitely DON'T want to miss this call.

      Win A Trip To South Florida to Meet Rich and Agora

      If you haven't read the Final Chapter, here's a damn good reason why you should.

      And if you have read it..

      You have a better understanding of what you need to do in order to grow your business to the next level.

      What if I told you that I would PERSONALLY pick you up at the airport, in my Porsche, and let you rack my brain for an ENTIRE afternoon?

      Imagine starting out at my office and my team and I brainstorming ideas on your business. Then taking off for a power lunch. Imagine heading over to Agora (the Early To Rise office) and their team spending the rest of the afternoon working hard to solve your biggest challenges.

      Well, that's EXACTLY what we're going to do.

      If this is not a once in a lifetime opportunity, then I don't know what is...So for one VERY LUCKY person, we're going to foot the bill for this very exclusive trip.

      How do you win? Follow these instructions.

      1.) Click "Comment" Below

      2.) Summarize why it's critical that your business has a consistent series of back end offers and why it's important that you build alliances within your marketplace.

      The person who has the best summary will be chosen and notified that they've won.

      Please don't ask for more direction, we simply CANNOT answer all of your questions right now, as we've been swamped with inquires regarding the Final Chapter.

      The winning entry will be based on merit, and not based on need. So keep your summary ON topic, and show us just how smart you really are.

      Rich

      P.S. Good luck with your summary, and don't plan on packing tons of luggage... my Porsche can barely store two gallons of milk. ;-)

    • Hey Guys,

      I have some exciting news!

      The Final Chapter

      The Final Chapter has JUST been through the last phase of editing, polishing, and waxing.

      It's FRESH out of the oven and it's ready to be DEVOURED.

      In all seriousness, I'm confident this document will send SHOCKWAVES through the Internet marketing community. I realize it’s VERY cliché to say that it will become a 'MUST-READ' but the fact is...this is some of my BEST work to date.

      The thing is, some of the concepts that I present in the Final Chapter are for ADVANCED marketers, and those who crave a better business model.

      Even if you're NOT a seasoned pro, THAT'S OK, because this document will provide a profitable foundation.

      I actually think it's MORE important that you read it NOW, because the marketplace is changing VERY rapidly, and it's important that you understand what's happening, if you desire BIG time profits.

      So without further ado, feast your mind on "The Final Chapter," of the Internet Business Manifesto Trilogy.

      To grab your copy, please visit: http://www.strategicprofits.com/finalchapter

      I can G.U.A.R.A.N.T.E.E this document will be worth at a MINIMUM, 10x more than the last ebook you bought.

      After you take a look at this report, please let me know your thoughts by posting a comment on the blog.

      Warm Regards,
      Rich Schefren

      PS - If you haven't read The Internet Business Manifesto and/or The Missing Chapter you need to. You can get both right here: http://www.strategicprofits.com/manifesto
