    • This past weekend was really difficult for me.

      It was a real roller-coaster of emotions. I’ve never had a single event haunt me both positively and negatively at the same time.

      And the success of my new program GPS (Guided Profit System) is to blame.

      You see, on the one hand I was ecstatic, we hit our projections faster than we thought possible… and the emails I’ve been receiving from my newest clients have me raring to go.

      But the other part of me, felt terrible. Because we’ve never received so many emails and phone calls from entrepreneurs who knew the value of GPS, but couldn’t enroll.

      And that hurts a lot more than you might think. Because the issue of overcoming constraints hit closer to home with more entrepreneurs worldwide than practically anything else I’ve ever done. And the heartfelt responses I received have moved me tremendously.

      The very same men and women I’ve committed my entire professional life to, couldn’t access what both they and I were certain would be the pivot point in their lives.

      For some the price was simply outside of their reach, even though we had already sharpened our pencils and were offering my coaching for less than it’s ever been offered.

      For others the intensity of the coaching program was scary. They were afraid the pace would be too fast, and the time commitment too big for them to handle.

      But what was most disturbing was that each one came from a stressed and struggling online entrepreneur who knew their business and their lives would instantly improve by eliminating the constraints blocking their path.

      And all were imploring me to give them another option.

      Entreperneurs like:

      • Scott J – who difficulty outsourcing was keeping him from spending quality time with his family…
      • Sheila R – who knew she was only one constraint away from paying off her debts, and seeing the concern of her husband and daughter replaced with the smile that financial security can bring…
      • Mike C – who was losing faith about his ability to be successful online but had nowhere else to turn.
      • Kim S – who knew she was just two constraints away from turning the tables on her friends and relatives…stated more simply… she’d finally be able to help them instead of always being on the receiving end.

      So there is the dilemma I struggled with, lost sleep over, and felt conflicted about.

      These entrepreneurs wanted my coaching program, believed I had the answers that were eluding them, and were certain their lives and business would immediately improve.

      Stop and think for a second, what would you do if you were me?

      If you know me at all, if you’ve read my free reports, watched me on video, or read some of my posts on this blog - you know I care very deeply about everyone who takes the entrepreneurial plunge. And I do my very best to help each and every person I can.

      Listen, what I am about to do…

      I am doing for Scott J, who wrote me Thursday night… I’m doing this for Sheila R, who called our offices Friday morning… I’m doing this for Mike C…. who got his message to me through customer support

      And I am doing this for you.


      Because if you are committed to a better outcome, a better business, ultimately a better life for you and your family then I’m committed to do whatever it takes to get you there.

      That’s why I canceled my trip to Chicago this past weekend, and hunkered down with my team to come up with a creative solution for you. And that’s exactly what we did.

      The best part of it is, what we came up with is a real breakthrough that’ll benefit both the entrepreneurs who contacted us over the past few days, the many who kept their disappointment to themselves, and those who were lucky enough to already get in.

      So let’s get into the details…

      First of all, if you are already a GPS client: Congratulations, today is your lucky day!

      You’ll still receive my daily coaching, the interactive streaming Q+A session available twice a day, and everything else promised you.

      But now, you’re also getting lots more. You’ll get access to a private seminar, six months of ongoing support, a physical copy of the entire program, an entire learning acceleration seminar I put on last year, plus many other additions to fast track your success.

      With these outstanding additions, your program will now be called “GPS Elite”.

      Secondly, if you were one of those entrepreneurs who contacted our office, or find yourself in a similar situation… we’ve got a new and improved option for you.

      We call this new option GPS Silver. You’ll get the same incredible constraint eliminating content, only it’ll be delivered over a longer stretch of six months, with some of the bells and whistles removed.

      Yes, you’ll have less personal access to me, but we’ve designed it in a way where you’ll still have every opportunity to get your questions answered.

      I’m very confident, whether you are in the Silver or Elite programs you’ll achieve and receive a mammoth breakthrough…a breakthrough so monumental in your life and your business I can’t begin to describe the difference it’ll make.

      And it all happens tomorrow Tuesday, September 30th at 3pm (eastern time). If you’re interested please don’t delay because when I informed my partners that we created a less expensive option – many cleared their mailing calendar so they could alert their subscribers.

      In fact, we’ve had so much excitement from our partners I think the online marketing world may erupt with an explosive flurry of email activity without rival. That’s why it only seems fair to me to give you the heads up now.

      But please remember this…

      No matter which option you choose, the weight is all on my shoulders here—not yours. Meaning, if you’ve ever been frustrated, disappointed, disillusioned, or just plain deceived, this time you’re guaranteed a happier ending - because you won’t take the hit—I will.

      The only thing I ask of you is to have faith. Faith in yourself to follow and do your part and know that success is within reach, the other is faith in me to have your best interests in heart.

      So, tomorrow at 3pm (eastern) I invite you to – if nothing else, to open your mind, and consider your options. There is no one else out there that’ll walk you step by step through the minefields of online marketing and business building like I’m prepared to.

      Just put your faith in yourself, in me and in my track record for a short while and the rest will be up to me.

      Tomorrow, I’ll give you an overview what I have in mind for us… You’ll see the process we’ll undertake together, the impact it can have and the outcome I know it’ll produce.

      Oh yes, one more thing before I go, just so we’re clear…

      I’m not offering a business in box, a business opportunity, or a deal where I promise you that we'll do all the work. So please don’t sign up unless you’re committed.

      I cannot do it all for you, sure I can shorten your timeline, wipe away any confusion or uncertainty you’re experiencing, help you eradicate the constraints standing in your way, and show you the fastest path to success possible. But I can’t do it all.

      However, if you’re willing, then hitch your wagon to mine and join me for the most profitable adventure of your lifetime.

      To higher profits,
      Rich Schefren

      P.S. I know you probably have questions. And that’s perfectly natural. So below are links to 2 previous blog posts where I answer a LOT of questions about the GPS program, about overcoming constraints, and about how you can finally achieve the success, wealth, and freedom you deserve so much.

      Make sure you look these over carefully. Because chances are I’ve already answered any question you might have. Have a look:

      • Your Top 10 Questions About The Guided Profits System

    • OK, this launch has now officially reached deafening levels...

      In fact, ever since I got off the tele-seminar with legendary marketer Jay Abraham, I've been trying to get this post written. And that was over 10 hours ago!

      Swarms of people, from newbies to gurus whose names you would instantly recognize, have been bombarding us with calls and emails virtually begging to reserve a spot inside the program because they're afraid it will instantly fill up.

      And they may be right.

      Plus, all the while we've been getting swamped with questions about my upcoming coaching program. And there still flying into my inbox faster than we can open them.

      Anyway - I know you want answers, and that’s what I got. So here are the details for the most common questions I've been receiving.

      Question 1: Do I need to have a business already?

      Ideally, the GPS program would work best if you have your own business or at least the desire to start one. Because at the end of the day, that’s where your long-term wealth will come from.

      But that being said, having your own business is not mandatory to get in to my program. Because small fortunes have been made by just knowing a fraction of what you’ll discover inside GPS even by those without a business.

      See, these atomic bombs of constraint eliminating firepower can be applied to any size business at anytime for staggering fees. That’s how I started, and it laid the foundation for my entire company. So, I guess it worked out ok. ;-)

      But at some point, you'll want to have the freedom that running your own business provides. And by using what you learn from me to grow your own business, you'll achieve that in record time.

      Question 2: What if I'm new to Internet Marketing and just starting out? Is this right for me?

      That's one we're getting a lot. And it's a legitimate concern. So here’s the skinny...

      If you know absolutely nothing about the internet, have no offline business experience whatsoever, and can only put in one hour a week towards this program, then this probably isn't for you.

      Because the GPS program is NOT--I repeat NOT--a business in box, a business opportunity, or a deal where I promise you that we'll do all the work.

      That’s a fools game. And while everyone deserves a chance for success, I tend not to mix well with those who haven't adjusted to the realities of business life.

      But if you're willing to actually spend the time and apply what I'll show you, then you'll be starting a business armed with a skill-set entrepreneurs everywhere only wish they had when they started.

      You'll avoid all the paralyzing mistakes while consistently choosing the most profitable action. In fact, your new skills will be even MORE valuable in the start up stage, since that's the time when entrepreneurs work the hardest, sacrifice the most, and make the least.

      But, by simply utilizing what you learned in the GPS program, you'll be able to totally avoid the dreaded "overworked and underpaid" stage and waltz right into positive cash flow from the very start.

      Question 3: What if I have a full-time job? How long till I can quit?

      If you're employed full time, the GPS program might interfere with your evening TV schedule. But other than that this program is easily doable and enjoyable.

      And as far as how long until you can quit your job, let me turn tables and ask you a few questions first: How long is a piece of rope?

      How high is the sky?

      How deep is the ocean?

      Sorry, but I have a reputation for being blunt at times. But here's my point...

      This is not a lottery ticket. It's NOT going to happen overnight. The GPS program is a fast-track process that builds a business in record time by first breaking down the constraints that keep your feet bogged down in the mud, then streamlining your business so it moves swiftly towards massive profitability.

      Will it happen in 4 weeks? 8 weeks? 3 months? That's entirely up to you and the constraints you walk in with. But I will make you this promise...

      I will do everything in my power to advance your business as quickly as possible. You can take that to the bank. Because if you do well, I do well.

      And when you finish the program and see what you've accomplished, you'll not only impress yourself, but you'll understand how vital the process was to get you where you wanted to be.

      Just don't plan on turning in your resignation letter to the boss next week. ;)

      Question 4: What if I am already overwhelmed with information overload? Is your coaching program going to eliminate it or exasperate it?

      Ah, the ol' paralysis by analysis enigma. That ban of most internet marketers. That's a fair question, because there's literally 100 different ways you can make money online. And everyone promises that their method is THE method.

      But here's a little secret about information overload...

      That's actually one of the biggest constraints facing entrepreneurs today. It bogs us down until we don't know which way to turn, which guru to follow, and which program to buy into.

      So what do we do? Procrastinate, delay, and go looking for more information. After all, it's a lot easier, it doesn't hurt, and we don't have to take a chance.

      But here's what's I love about the GPS program: it's actually tailored to WIPE OUT information overload, not add to it. Because it’ll automatically transform your current Just In Case information strategy with a Just In Time information strategy.

      And that my friend will eliminate 90% of your problem right there. The net result: you’ll operate with greater clarity and more confidence in your own solutions then the ones you hear others swear by. How cool is that?

      Question 5: I've already bought a few marketing courses, what ís different about your program?

      First of all, let's make something perfectly clear--this is NOT a marketing course.

      Marketing courses usually improve the POTENTIAL of your business, unless you get lucky and happen to luckily pick the course that matches perfectly your current constraint.

      Always remember – your actual SUCCESS is determined by your constraints and how you eliminate them. And that's what this course will do for you.

      So it's more effective, more efficient, and more results-certain than anything out there. In fact, I would venture to say it's the most powerful and profitable (and most hands-on) business training and coaching program that I’ve ever come across.

      Because the GPS program doesn't try to teach you to follow a certain road, then let you loose to work through the roadblocks on your own.

      It plops you right in the middle of that road with a pick axe and sledgehammer and says, "Let's tear these bad boys down so it's easier to get to our destination."

      Doesn't that seem to make a lot more sense--and isn’t that in an entirely different league --than another marketing course? Question 6: Up until a few weeks ago I never heard of you. No offense, but how do I know you're the real deal?

      Great question. It shows you're a smart consumer. Never buy anything from anyone online without checking them out first.

      But honestly, I'm not one to start throwing around accolades about myself. What I am most proud of, and what should impress you and reassure you more than anything is my unparalleled track record. Sure, I've been featured in The Wall Street Journal, Newsweek, a ton of broadcast networks and lots more. But what you want are results – and I’ve delivered the exact results you’re craving time and time again. You can also Google my name and see what others say about me. Just hope my wife hasn't started blogging. ;)

      Question 7: How exactly is the GPS program going to work?

      In a nutshell, over the 30 days of the training here's how it will go...

      --Phase one will include a daily live streaming sessions each and every day for a full 30 days.

      --Phase two will include two daily live streaming question and answer session where you can press me for the answers you need to eliminate whatever stands in your way.

      --Phase three will include 4 Saturday Seminar training sessions delivered right to your home office spaced out every other week.

      --Phase four will involve compiling and implementing your GPS Business Growth Guide over the remaining 30 days And of course, everything will be archived, transcribed and indexed for your convenience. There's LOTS more involved with the program...too much to list here. You can find out more when we go live on Thursday at noon eastern.

      Question 8: Do I have to be in the US to participate in the GPS coaching program?

      Absolutely not. But there are a few considerations that you need to make if you're outside the continental USA.

      First, the schedule of training will be based on Eastern Standard Time. But I’ve accommodated your schedule by immediately archiving the phase 1 streams and conveniently timing phase two question and answer streams 10-12 hours apart (one in the morning and one in the evening) So you’ll avoid having to get up at odd hours for any reason.

      But don't worry--even if you miss a session, we will be recording everything, so you'll always have access to all of the training materials. In fact we’ll send you a complete set when the program is done.

      Question 9: Will this be too much for me to handle?

      Maybe. Maybe not. If it's not for you, then it's not for you. But consider this...

      When you start a new workout program, what happens over the first few days? Yep--you're sore, you're achy, and your body is screaming for you to stop.

      But if you push through and keep on going, the soreness wears off, and is replaced by a feeling of rejuvenation. Then you start seeing results in the mirror, and that fires you up even more.

      It's the exact same way with the GPS program. You may feel some pain and discomfort at first, but then when you actually see your constraints crumbling before your very eyes and the profits rolling in, then it all becomes worth those few moments when it hurt a little.

      Believe me--it'll happen – it always does!!

      Question 10: I gotta have this program Rich--how do I get it?

      It's very easy to be enrolled into the GPS program. Here's what you need to do...

      1) When the clock strikes 12 noon eastern time on Thursday, September 25, make sure you're at this link.

      https://ssl.strategicprofitsystem.com/gps/

      And if you still see countdown timer, then hit refresh until a letter pops up.

      2) Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on the link that says. "Yes Rich, I'm Ready To Sign Up For Guided Profit System, My Personal GPS For My Business."

      3) Follow the easy instructions on the next few pages, and you'll be all set!

      I hope this little Q and A has helped to calm any confusion you have about my new course. So you can make the right decision for you, and your business.

      It's really going to be something special, and you’ll be as thankful as all my previous clients are. So I hope to see you inside.

      Until then, time for bed...tomorrow's a big day.

      To Higher Profits, Rich
