This piece of advice helped completely change my financial future forever because up until that point, I had been taking in all the information I had been learning from studying various mentors online and the value that I got from that was tremendous, but I had not yet reaped any kind of financial reward.
Once I received a little piece of advice, it set me on the right path and that, in turn, helped me generate over $111,000 worth of revenue in less than eight weeks on one project.
Here's what Armand told me -
I had all these new ideas for products and services that I wanted to put together as one big package. I was really excited about its possibilities.
I carried this excitement into a meeting I had with Armand. I opened up my lap top and loaded my Mind Mapping software and began explaining all my new ideas.
Right in front of me he grabbed my mouse, closed my Mind Mapping software and said, "Stop right there."
He continued telling me, "It doesn't matter how many ideas you generate. The only way you are going to make money is on the ideas that you implement. That is what you should be focusing on." Focus on the implementation - write that down.
People aren't going to buy just an idea. They are more likely to buy something they can see, feel, hear or experience. If you are only thinking about the money, that won't help either because it is the finished idea that will bring the sales, not just the idea.
John Reese is a great example of using this. When he launched Traffic Secrets he sent all of his high-level affiliates physical copies. You might be thinking, sending physical copies to a targeted list would cost money. Yes, but having it right in front of them they are able to see the value of the product instead of someone trying to describe it to them.
Focusing on the implementation is an absolute crucial step for everyone to pay attention to because until an idea is completed you can't make any money from it. Finished products mean an avenue to generate revenue.
Armand showed me an example of this during that same lunch. He took my laptop and brought up several of his websites that he had products for sale on. Then he turned to me and said, "Now I want to buy a product from you. Where do I go to get it?"
Looking at him I didn't know what to say. You may be wondering why? Well, I didn't have any of my completed products up for sale and had so many other ideas not even completed. I had no sales letter set up, people couldn't opt-in anywhere to find out more information, I didn't have an auto responder series set up or have a shopping cart set up. People couldn't buy from me because I didn't have it set up yet.
That was a complete eye opener because I learned in that instant that it doesn't matter how many ideas you have, you only make money on the sale of the finished idea.
I hope that this got everyone reading this thinking about what they can do to get their product/service out there to your customer base.
Your business won't grow or make any money from ideas. Even if it is the greatest idea in the world, until it is implemented no money can be made!
