    • It’s been a whirlwind week…

      Ever since word got out about Jay Abraham’s FREE Masters Of Recessionary Income Teleseminar, we’ve been flooded with calls and emails from people virtually gushing about this call.

      Thousands of marketers, entrepreneurs, and business owners have listened so far, and they’re raving about the tremendous strategies and tactics for generating MASSIVE income during a down economy.

      Have you listened yet? Because if you haven’t, you should.

      And the best part is, YOU CAN. Right here, right now.

      Listen To Jay’s Call For FREE Here!

      Inside, Jay reveals 42 different ways for your business to make big money when all around you are crying doom and gloom.

      And today, I wanted to pull out one specific tactic and highlight it specifically–just so you can see the enormous value of what Jay is offering.

      It’s called “Capitalizing on Capitalism” and the premise is very simple: you make money for your business by leveraging the assets of OTHER businesses.

      Let me explain…

      In a recessionary economy, there’s always leverage points or impact areas inside another’s business that they don’t see, but you can tap into.

      So you go to these businesses and offer to exploit these leverage points for them on a pure performance basis, where you only get paid out of the added profit results.

      No desperate, shell-shocked business owner in their right mind would turn down an offer of newfound profits, above and beyond what they are earning right now, and only pay you a small share of this increase.

      For example, four recessions ago, Jay found a struggling brokerage house that was only doing $300,000 in annual commissions by selling and marketing the conventional way.

      He quickly shifted their entire marketing approach from one of paid ads to a pure, performance-based revenue sharing deal with a large group of financial advertising sources.

      The result? Sales skyrocketed to $500 million and Jay’s investment of effort (and zero risk) made him $2,000,000.00 in just an 18 month period.

      Another example: Jay found a seminar company that only offered entry level low priced seminars. So he created the first and only advanced seminar they’d ever offered.

      It made them two million dollars in 30 days. Jay’s share? A whopping $200,000.00 for a few days work.

      Of course, these are not promises that you’ll earn that kind of money so quickly. But it does show you the amazing POSSIBILITIES that this strategy offers to put a bulging wad of cash in your pockets.

      In fact, consistent 4 or 5 figure profit shares for yourself is actually quite doable. And here’s 7 easy ways you can implement this strategy NOW for massive revenue.

      Revenue Generating Strategy 1. Go to any company who has lost customers, clients or patients. Offer to reactivate old buyers and turn them into new ones. Even in a recession, it’s possible to restart up to 40% of the people who stopped buying in the past.

      Revenue Generating Strategy 2. Show companies how to increase the size of each sale by adding other products or services to the purchase mix. They could even offer bigger financial incentives for people making larger purchases. This tactic has been proven to increase sales (and most importantly profits to the business owner), by as much as 50%.

      Revenue Generating Strategy 3. Find other related/complementary products or services that you can offer to the past buyers of a business (that will add 50 to 75% net profit to the owner’s bottom line). They are far more available than you possibly think.

      Revenue Generating Strategy 4. Show business owners how, instead of adding more products to increase profits, they can cut up to 40% out of their current overhead and get the same effect. This can be attained by utilizing joint ventures, strategic alliances, and host beneficiary relationships–resulting in HUGE savings.

      Revenue Generating Strategy 5. Use a discount media service to cut their advertising costs by 40%. Few business owners know they exist and that this is easily done. Once, Jay took over the rights to acquire full page newspaper ads for a company. He negotiated to keep 80% of all ad savings he generated for them over a certain period. On average, Jay saved them $25,000 a month just by pairing the newspapers together and buying those same ads from a discount media source.

      Revenue Generating Strategy 6. If your talents lie in the creative areas, you can always step in and help make all their ads, sales approaches, promotions, and marketing activities perform better just by tweaking the copy or design–for a nice percentage of the increase. Even something as simple as a headline change can easily increase responses, leads, sales and profits up to 21 times.

      Revenue Generating Strategy 7. If the sales force consists of person-to-person contact (either face-to-face, on the phone, or in email), some small changes in what they say, how they say it, the way the sale is generated, or even the bonuses that are offered can double, redouble, even redouble again the results a business produces–even in a recession.

      Amazing, aren’t they? And that’s just seven.

      Jay’s got a LOT more inside here. And they won’t cost you a cent.

    • “The sky is falling! The sky is falling!”

      Ah, the infamous words of Chicken Little. Ever tell that one to your kids?

      Funny thing is, these days you don’t have to. All you need to do is turn on CNN and you’ll get a big dose of “falling skies” commentary from the talking heads on screen.

      I gotta admit–this both amuses me and irks me to no end. Because the truth is, what we’re experiencing with the economy is one big Chicken Little story.

      Somebody goes screaming about gloom and doom, and everyone panics. Next thing you know, we’re in a crisis situation. Billions of dollars are being doled out to big business, layoffs go through the roof, and everybody sits on their hands, waiting to see what happens next.

      HUH?

      C’mon people! Are we really putting our faith in the media to tell us how to think and act? These are the same people who follow up a tragic story of a mass shooting with a video of a squirrel on water skis–and never blink an eye.

      Yep–solid, trustworthy news reporting there. Pulitzer Prize material if I’ve ever seen it.

      Let’s face it. The days of actual news reporting have gone the way of the dodo. And every time one of these capped teeth morons start spewing their mindless dribble, Edward R. Murrow turns over in his grave.

      What we’re hearing these days is not the news. It’s carefully selected tidbits of information designed to elicit a predetermined response. They tell us EXACTLY what they want to tell us. And right now, we’re being fed a large helping of the sky falling all around us in huge, jagged chunks.

      Now, don’t get me wrong here. I’m not saying times aren’t tough. Because we’re all feeling the pinch (present company included).

      But what I AM saying is this…if you let yourself be lead around by the nose by a bunch of hair-sprayed idiots who call themselves news people, you’ll never grow your business to a high level of success.

      Why? Because you’re giving Chicken Little control over your mindset–instead of seizing the reigns and making your own path.

      So you want the good news?

      There are many MANY ways to prosper greatly in a recessionary climate. In fact, multiple millions of dollars have been made during a “down economy” by savvy business people who didn’t go screaming into the night every time somebody yelled about the sky falling. And during this economic hiccup, more millions will be made again.

      But the key is to make some small changes in your business growth strategy now to help alleviate the fears and keep your company’s focus on the matter at hand. And here’s 3 tips to help you get started on the right path:

      1) Buy Some Ear Plugs. The main reason there’s panic in the marketplace is because somebody told us that’s what we need to do. And that’s WRONG. Stay away from the naysayers. Ignore newspapers and TV news channels. Put your head down, plug your ears and say “LALALALALA I’M NOT LISTENING TO YOUUUU.” Stay focused on YOUR business and YOUR profits–not what’s going on with the Big Three car companies. And to quote an old Public Enemy tune, “Don’t Believe The Hype!”

      2) Increase Your Marketing Efforts. This goes against conventional thinking, but it’s the perfect move. Why? Because everyone else is shrinking back in fear from the future, hiding in the shadows with their fingers clutched to their dwindling budgets. And that includes your competition. Which means this is a HUGE opportunity to grab a sizable chunk of your market share by pushing forward with an aggressive marketing plan. And when the storm settles (and it will settle) you’ll be solidly entrenched in the number one position…while everyone else is clawing to get back in the game.

      3) Get Some Sage Advice. This last one is the most crucial of all, because many of us haven’t been through a true recessionary period before. And to put it simply–we don’t know what we don’t know. So we need the guidance and wisdom of somebody who’s been there, done that, and made several million in the process. And for me, that’s Jay Abraham.

      If anyone knows how to make money during a recession, it’s Jay. His strategies and tactics are legendary in the business world for turning fortunes completely around and putting struggling companies back in the black in record time–even when the Chicken Littles were running rampant. And now, he’s willing to help you too.

      Yep–it said 99% off.

      Not 9%. Or 29 or 39. Not even 59 or 69.

    • “And it’s working like gangbusters. Check out this video below I just got from one of my star pupils, Tellman Knudson.”

      So yesterday I spent about 30 minutes on the phone swapping stories with an old college buddy, Josh.

      I hadn’t spoken to him in years – but he tracked me down on the internet, sent me an email, and eventually it made it into my personal email box.

      So, I called, we caught up, reminisced about our crazy days, and then the conversation turned serious.

      Josh was currently experiencing hard times in his business. He’d noticed all the mentions of me and the success I’ve created for others while trying to find me. He wondered if I would give him some advice.

      I agreed – and cutting to the chase, he lasered in on this crucial question…

      Rich, you’re successful and you’ve made lots of others successful – is there one thing that all successes have in common that the unsuccessful seem to miss?

      And without even a second of thought I shot back, “Leverage”.

      So what exactly is “leverage”?

    • Okay, my last post was all touchy feely because of Valentines Day. And I hope you learned a lot from the videos.

      Today’s post goes more in the opposite direction. In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised to see a few opt-outs after this goes up. But’s that’s the chance I have to take.

      Okay, here goes…

      Some of you have asked why I didn’t make the MP3s of the recent Jay Abraham calls available for download. And that’s understandable.

      Because many marketing mavens freely give away their calls and teleseminars. I’ve been known to do so myself on occasion.

      But not this one–and I’ll tell you why.
