Most entrepreneurs are on what I call “The Traditional Growth Model.” The MORE their business grows and the more money they make...The LESS freedom they have. Entrepreneurs who follow the “2X 10 Less” way, experience the exact opposite. They have the systems and strategies to grow their business while using that extra cash to “buy back” their freedom and live on their terms. Let’s just be real… You didn’t start your business so that you could have less freedom, less time, and less joy in your life. You started your business because you wanted freedom! Financial Freedom Time Freedom Location Freedom That’s why I did… ...And I remember the exact moment I achieved it… it was February, 2006 and I was sitting in a plane in Dubai ready to take off to London, England, and I was checking my email on my Blackberry and watching sales pour in from an online promotion. I had beaten the game and WON the Rat Race. And you can too... ... because you weren’t willing to settle for the status quo and stay stuck in the “golden handcuffs” of trading time for dollars. So today, I wanted to share three tactics personally use to help you get more of the freedom you’ve been working so hard to achieve. They are: Fast Freedom Tool #1: The 90-Day Blueprint If you’ve been a member of the Perfect Day family for more than a week, you’ve already seen my 90-Day Professional Success blueprint… But have you taken the time to fill it out and implement it? Listen, if you’re anything like I used to be, you have this “weird human trick” where you think that simple solutions are ineffective. You want bells, you want whistles, and you want complicated strategies and convoluted techniques because it feels like those things should work, right? I can tell you from personal experience--after building five 7-figure businesses and coaching dozens of 8 and 9-figure entrepreneurs--simplicity is king. This worksheet might seem too simple to work. But it isn’t. In fact, my client Frank Den Blanken used this tool (along with my coaching) to more than 20X his revenue in less than a year … all while working 15 fewer hours a week so that he could have more date nights - and vacations - with his wife, Paula. Fast Freedom Tool #2: Implement MONSTER Follow Up The easiest way to make more money in your business without working more hours is to max out the leads and prospects that are already coming to your business today. But to do this, you need to create a MONSTER follow up sequence. People are busy. They have mortgages to pay, kids to raise, businesses to run, and thousands of tiny distractions stealing their attention. If you are not intentional and aggressive with your follow-up, you won’t even appear on their radar, let alone close them on an offer that could change their life. So here’s what you’re going to do… The second a new lead comes into your business, you or one of your team members will immediately follow up with a phone call. If they don’t answer, you’ll send them a text message. If they don’t respond to that, find them on Facebook. And if that doesn’t work, then you’re going to hunt them down on Instagram and send them another direct message. I know this might sound like overkill, but you need to remember… These people came to your business because they have a problem. There is something in their life that isn’t working and you have the solution. Try this for just one week and you’ll be amazed by how easy it is to make more money without working more hours. Money Making tool #3: The “10 Less Checklist” A while back, I wrote an article titled “10 Strategic Habits to Increase Your Income While Working 10 Fewer Hours a Week”. If you’re serious about working less and reclaiming your freedom, then click here to read it now and then put all ten strategies to work this week. The action steps on this checklist aren’t particularly complicated or hard to do. But they will have a profound impact on your life and business. * * * These are a few of the fastest and easiest ways I know to drive more cash to your business without working more hours. If you want a deep dive into some of the advanced strategies I share with my $25k/day clients and at my business growth workshops I’m re-opening a course tomorrow called 2X 10 Less. The course will only be open for 36 hours and closes at 11:59 pm PST on Saturday. I spend a lot of time on the weekly group coaching calls and finding incredible guest trainers to help you take your business to the next level and I only want people who are committed to success inside of this program. I’ll give you more details tomorrow. To Your Success, Craig |
