8 sayings that won’t make you money.

Avoid these when you are selling.

// THREAD //
“To be honest with you”: Their brain now thinks you may be lying.
“Trust me”: This raises questions, distrust. Actions over words.
“Sorry to bother you”: Never apologise for selling. You give value.
“Just to follow up”: If they didn’t buy last time, don’t remind them.
“Buy it”: They like to buy, but not the idea. Try “would you take this?”
“Contract”: Too serious. Replace for "agreement" to not intimidate.
“Haven’t heard back from you”: They know. Offer help, not guilt.
“I know you are busy”: If you know, why are you contacting them?

How to avoid a burnout.

7 rules that will stop you from quitting.

// THREAD //
1. Have “Partners in Crime”

Invest time to find someone (or small team) that has the same goals. Push each other forward, in the good and in the bad. Someone that you trust and can be open/honest about new ideas or challenges. This person can be an online stranger. Make it fun.
2. Change environment

You don’t need to hop on a plane. Work from home? Then change rooms. Or go to cafes, libraries, etc. Being stuck in the same space for long periods reduces your creativity levels. Change your surroundings and your energy levels will change for the good.

5,000 Twitter friends with a Notepad in 80 days 📒

This will help you start building, even with a 9-5.

// THREAD //
1) The Invisible Work

There is always hidden work.

Work that no one sees; whether it’s years of:

- Scrolling social media in silence
- Experience in your 9-5
- Reading/writing every day
- Expertise in a field

Use your experience to start building.

2) Long-term Strategy

A plan without a vision is not a plan.

Think 12-months down the line, and reverse engineer.

- What do you want to achieve?
- How will you get there?

Break down your goals and monitor.

September goals (all achieved):

How they trick you to spend money.

5 strategies that trigger your mind to buy.

// THREAD //
1) The “Sale”

You enter a shop and T-shirt priced: $60

Thought: “Ah, nice but slightly expensive”.

This happens with any product out there.

But let’s say the next day…

Same t-shirt but this time “SALE – $60 instead of $90”

Different story; this urgency triggers the buy.
2) The “Up-sell”

You see 2 popcorn offers…

Or ice creams, smoothies, any product...

You are likely to choose the cheapest size.

But with 3 options?

Your mind is triggered to look at the middle size…

Or even go for the largest size.

The “rule of 3” changes everything.

You are here for a reason.

We are all here creating content for the same reason.

The sincere real-life story of this Sales Notepad.

// THREAD //
Late teens and real life starts to hit you.

You are no longer a kid, but still not yet an adult.

“Get good grades”, “Go to college”, “Get a good job”.

The life story drawn into your mind from an early age.

Most fall for it, including Notepad.
Living in 6 countries during teenage years built character:

- Restarting life from zero
- Learning new ways of living
- Leaving people behind

You get strong; you learn not to quit.

A real-life challenge...

This marked the next 10 years for this Notepad; the 20’s..

Why you lose respect from others.

Avoid these 7 common mistakes.

// THREAD //
1. You take others time for granted

Whether you are meeting a friend, going to a gym lesson or have a scheduled call… Not being on time shows a lack of responsibility. Sooner or later, they will start disrespecting your time too. The world doesn’t revolve around you.
2. You don’t take responsibility

Your brain can play tricks on you. It can blind you from admitting when you are wrong. And others will then see you as being challenging or over controlling. You don't gain anything by blaming others. Accepting your wrongdoings is appreciated.

Why you don’t get what you want.

7 classic mistakes to avoid.

// THREAD //
1. You rely on other people

High expectations lead to disappointment. That person you like doesn’t respond? You don’t hear from your interview/client? Persist, give a chance, otherwise move on. Don't depend on others to succeed. Wasting time is expensive, new things will come.
2. You want everything now

Your sale may not close today, but it will in 5 months. You may not go out with that person you like today, but you might in 5 months. Remember, things are not always meant to be. And reality is, things happens when they happen. Don't punish yourself.
