How to research and select a profitable business to create:

1. Pick an offer that is selling well using tools like adspy or adbeat.
2. Create a sales funnel with better marketing that will have a higher AOV and LTV.
3. Use the same traffic source you found your offer on.
Ok, that’s the framework, but it’s generic. Let’s drill down into this now with a specific example.

I’ll show you a wildly successful business and a moderately successful one that copied the larger business’s angle, offer, and ad strategy.
The following offer was receiving millions of visits a month as recently as early last year.

Must have made tens of millions in sales.
Nucific had one core offer, a probiotic repositioned for weight loss, not just bloating or digestion. A killer offer in a huge market.

All it took was one 60 minute video. How did they do it?
Although the video seems to be taken down now, the video presented “3 harmful foods.”

Typical clickbait.

Each food was used to explain a problem that prevented weight loss.

The offer was a supplement that had ingredients that addressed each problem.

Too easy to sell.
You can see the full video here:



Notice how the doctor’s voice does not match the presenter’s voice...lol
This is a prime example of a direct response brand that I have discussed in my tweets before.

It’s such a good example that it wasn’t long before an imitator entered the market and made some cash by nearly copying everything.
Symple Nature literally has the same offer and angle (3 bad foods). You can view the VSL here:

symplenature.com/gut-presentati…
While Symple Nature does not have the credibility of a medical expert, it focuses on raising the AOV with increased prices for the offer ($67 v. $47).

While not as successful as Nucific, traffic stats indicate it’s doing just fine with at least 150k to 200k visits a month.
Literally built in Clickfunnels and all it took was a standard white board VSL.

Traffic comes solely from Google Display just like Nucific, which also relied on native.

So there you go. That’s how it’s done.
Ok, so you might say this requires a huge financial commitment and investment in inventory.

The solution is to find someone on Fiverr and Upwork to make your VSL and product mock-ups and run test traffic before investing in inventory.

Minimal risk and huge upside.
Final thought: I’ve given you the framework to launch a business. No need to be waste time and lose dignity by being a gumroad guru, high ticket closer, or Aliexpress dropshipper. It’s up to you to execute and create a long-term stable business.

**How to Create and Sell a Course and Make $1,000,000 in Profit**

It’s true

Selling a course is the easiest way to make a million dollars in a year

In fact, it's a great way to make passive income!

I’m going to break down exactly how to create a course and sell it profitably
(1) First of all, you might ask: why should I make a course?

Because it’s easy. And you don’t need an idea that changes the world

Just take what you already know and sell it

Plus you don’t have to worry about fulfillment or inventory issues

No brainer, right?
(2) The next question you'll ask is: what should the course be about?

Rule: If people want to learn something, you can make a course about it

Are you good at flying drones?

Can you teach someone how to launch their first podcast?

If there's a market, you can make a course

**How to Dropship Successfully Without all the Hassles and Beat your Competition**

“Winning” dropshipping products come and go

You’ll see stores launch and die out within months

But how do you escape the churn and burn and roller coaster of highs and lows?

Here’s how to do it
Step 1: Identify products selling well already

Use spy tools or curate your FB/IG feed so that it shows you ads for trending products

The goal is to choose a proven offer and then beat your competition with better marketing

Now let’s discuss the marketing side of things
Step 2: Create barriers to entry

The biggest problem with dropshipping is that everyone is on a level playing field

Since it is easy to start and anyone can do it, it is difficult to differentiate yourself

That’s why you need to create a barrier to entry

How do you do this?

**How to Close High Ticket ($5k+) Sales Calls with a Nearly 100% Success Rate**

A couple years ago, over the span of 2 months, my team and I closed 79 out of 80 prospects for $5k-$10k coaching services.

How did we achieve this astonishing success rate?

Here’s the breakdown:
First of all, let me be clear.

All sales calls were scheduled with existing customers who had already purchased info products ranging from $47 to $497.

This already made them a warm audience that was receptive to high ticket coaching.

And that’s one of the key secrets...
Step 1 : Buyer commits by purchasing a lower ticket offer.

Step 2 is the critical stage:

3 weeks after purchase, we would reach out to check in and see if they needed more help

Many accepted a call immediately (because buying a course simply isn’t enough)

So far so good.

Lead gen and free reports don’t get talked about enough around here.

Personally not a big fan of the financial niche, but it requires skill to break down complex ideas.

Check out this simple lead gen ad on FB here:

facebook.com/ads/library/?i…

Some unorganized thoughts below 👇
1. It’s a simple video made on Fiverr pitching a free tool to help dividend investors

2. The landing page makes a bold promise in the headline. Makes you want to enter your email.

3. The landing page is clean and simple. Nothing crazy. Hyper focused on getting your email.
4. Once the email is collected, you’re provided the free calendar. But wait, there’s more! Who doesn’t want 4 or 5 more checks per month??

5. With the bold promise out of the way, we move into social proof. A few choice quotes.

Two senior bankers I once worked with couldn’t have been more different in their approach to finding new business.

The first banker would not approach a company to pitch to unless:

1) He had prior experience in the industry
2) Had a connection to the board or management
Leading up to a meeting, he would agonize over every word and number in the presentation, leading to late nights for my co-workers and me.

He would memorize the page numbers on which the most important graphs and tables were.

Amazing attention to detail...no doubt.
The other senior banker, however, rarely reviewed a presentation for the company more than once.

It was not uncommon to find glaring mistakes.

BUT

During meetings to pitch new business, he would pass out copies of the presentation to the members of the company

And then...
