Lloyd Irvin and his fellow mastermind member David Schirmer from the movie The Secret

Everyone has heard about the hit movie called THE SECRET! And if you’ve seen the movie then you’ve seen my buddy David before. But what most people dont know is the The Secret is REAL!

This weekend I was at an event hosted by Dan Kennedy hanging out with some of my mastermind buddies having a great time. We were all sitting at a table late friday night telling our stories about how everyone became millionaires.

The entire event was focused around what Dan Kennedy calls “THE PHENOMENON”. How you can make more money in 12 months then you’ve done in the previous 12 years. Some people may laugh but for us it’s very true. People have heard me talking about experiencing The Phenomenon before. I know it to be a REAL thing and so did the people sitting at the table with me.

The sad part is that technically it’s simple. But so many people just don’t get it. For one you must stay plugged into other successful people. It simply amazes me to hear people tell me about all of their financial problems that they are having with their business and dealing with their business but won’t even attend a single chapter meeting.

This weekend I know some of you are joining me in Chicago for The System Internet Marketing Seminar. I will be speaking there personally. People pay me alot of money to get business, marketing and financial advise, many of them are from all over the World and it’s crazy that business owners in my own back yard come up with excuse after excuse why they can’t do this, or why they can’t do that.

Dan Kennedy told me something that sums it up all together. It’s funny how he has a way to say things that make everything more clear.

He said ” If you hang out with a highly successful person for 7 days, 24 hours a day looking at what they do each and every day you’ll quickly discover why they are so successful, on the other hand if you hang out with a non successful person for 7 days, 24 hours a day looking at what they do each and every day you’ll quickly discover why they are well “non successful”

It made me laugh because one of my good friends named Don came over to my house the other day while we were working. He left saying “man you don’t even have no time to chill and hang out, I’m outta here”, he then went on to call one of our mutal friends and told him “man I just left Lloyd’s house and it’s like wall street over there, I’m not ever going back over there when they are working, all they do is work” LOL

Well he’s correct and incorrect. We don’t work all of the time. If you think about it people who work do at least 8 hours a day in the office. I may work 2-3 hours a day but my 2-3 hours are laser focused work that generates money. Most people in a 8 hour day waste lots of time being non productive.

The funny thing is that everone that was at the table used to be like that also but something changed. To many it’s a SECRET to what they did. Most will say that they had something that others didn’t, they had access to information or resources that weren’t available to them.

NOT SO

Tomorrow night at my next chapter meeting I’m going to be covering a few of the things that were talked about to help a person experience The Phenomenon.

And also tomorrow we are going to do something I’ve never before done in one of our chapter meetings. You won’t want to miss this.

If you don’t live in Maryland you should try to find someone running chapter meetings in your area.  They are priceless

“The Simple ‘Secret’ For Growing Your Profits”

=====================================

Is your business in a funk?

Are you having a hard time staying MOTIVATED?

Do you sometimes feel like you just want to throw up your hands and GIVE UP?

Is your business not growing as FAST as you want it to?

Well, it’s time to change all of that…

Because I want to share a little secret with you. One that can dramatically change your thinking, inspire you to take your business to entirely new levels, and completely transform your life.

Your mind is STARVING for something and you don’t even know it…

What you truly need is simple. It’s something I call the “WTRW” factor. (I’ll explain it in a moment.)

Okay, by now you’re probably thinking I’m out of my mind. But try and stay with me on this. It’s an extremely valuable process.

Do you realize that your brain works best when it receives NEW stimulation? Yes, the keyword here is “new.”

Well, your business (and how your mind runs it) works the same way. Unless you are exposing your brain to new stimulation in relation to your business, your business is not going to go anywhere. You will end up in a “profit rut” and maybe not even get a new business off the ground.

If you’re trying to get your first business up and running and making the type of income you want, then what you are about to learn can really help you succeed.

If you already have a successful business, but you want to take it to another level, then you also need to pay close attention.

WTRW stands for “Wow! This Really Works!”

It’s what I consider a “validator.” It confirms with your brain that results that you’ve just achieved for your business are contributing to the “Master Plan” you have for what you wish to achieve. The more WTRW moments you produce, the more PROGRESS you make for your business, and the faster it will GROW.

Let me give you an example…

Let’s say you need more traffic to one of your Web sites. You’re already using Google AdWords and Overture. You’re already doing some joint ventures, writing articles, and even doing a little search engine optimization.

But you want more traffic. (Leads)

So you put in some time and find some NEW places online where you can advertise whatever it is you have to sell. Maybe it’s a PPC search engine that you’ve never tested before. Maybe it’s buying some banner ads on a site somewhere. Maybe it’s advertising in someone’s ezine.

When you place an ad in one of these NEW places, and you start to generate traffic like you wanted, something very POWERFUL happens with your brain…

You have a WTRW moment. Your results validate that the process works and you have just taken a tiny step to improve your business. Yet what you just did isn’t just a tiny step…

It’s EXACTLY what your brain needed to “shift into another gear.”

If you were to go out and test some new ad sources that you’ve never tested before, and if you’re able to start driving some new leads to one of your sites, what do you think this is going to do to you?

You’re going to get excited. You’re going to be happy. You’re going to feel great about doing something that helped your business. And THIS one thing is going to motivate, inspire, and encourage you to go and try some other things. Test more ad sources. Test copy changes. Test new offers.

Do you notice a consistent word here? “TEST.”

Testing is the foundation of marketing. You try stuff. You throw it at the wall. You see if it sticks. If it doesn’t, who cares, don’t ever do it again. If it DOES, you just got an instant PAY RAISE and now you’re making more money.

You test a new version of your sales letter. You see if it outperforms the old one. You test some new copy for one of your AdWords ads. You see if it will pull a higher click-through rate and lower your ad costs.

It is CRITICAL that you constantly test NEW THINGS for your business. Don’t just get stuck in a rut of doing the same old thing. Unless you stimulate your brain with NEW RESULTS from one of your marketing tests, your brain isn’t going to start firing on all cylinders and inspiring you to run other tests, make other changes, and do other things to grow your business so you can make your money.

If you’re just starting a new business or project, let me tell you what WTRW moment will have the greatest impact on you and accelerate the amount of money you will make…

Earning your first dollar.

Not $100. Not $1,000. Just ONE LOUSY BUCK.

Because if you can do whatever it takes to earn that $1 of profit, you’ve figured out 90% of what it takes to get rich. And when you achieve that moment, your brain will validate it and you’ll know that the process REALLY WORKS.

The KEY to growing your business lies within your ability to continue testing new things and getting fresh, NEW results for your brain to digest. So take a few minutes out of each week and test some new things. Go crazy. Think outside the box. Do something completely different.

You just wait and see what happens. You’ll be pleasantly surprised.

Well, that’s all for now. So what are you waiting for?

GET BACK TO WORK!

Yours For Offline And Online Profits,

Lloyd Irvin
