What if you
were given the opportunity to meet with, spend time with, learn from and make
money (lots of money) with someone in your industry, how many times would it
take of having road blocks, and inconveniences such as time delays etc., etc.
before you “quit”?
I like to
share real experiences as life lessons first to me and then to others (my life
purpose is “Transforming lives starting with my own”). Here is one experience
that is very fresh in the life of Ter Scott.
Recently a
friend and business partner is expanding his real estate investing business in
several areas of the USA. I placed this ad on Facebook and got some interest
from my “friends”. Some told me that they had some interest and when I replied
to them, for whatever reason, they did not get back to me. Some were
“interested” enough to go through step one of three with some of these gracious
enough to call me and tell me that it wasn’t for them while others seemingly
fell off the face of the earth, never to be seen or heard from again. Some
responded via text or private FB message telling me that they’ve given it more
thought and don’t want to even go to step one of three for whatever reason and
that brings me to the experience I am sharing with you today. (Of course there
are the winners who “graduate” through all steps and become partners and do
quite well. We learn however from the
trials and struggles of these winners while they are either failing or
winning; which is a choice by the way, so again I’m sharing an experience from
someone still on the journey).
Now it
doesn’t matter to me whether someone says “yes” or “no” to an opportunity. It
does bewilder me when people don’t at least check something out before saying
“no” because they don’t know what they are saying “no” to. The great thing
about success is that life has a way of “weeding” out those who are not
serious. When people tell you “no” to your opportunity, move on and don’t fret
it. Become successful and if they are the right people for you, they will watch
and get on board in the future. If not, that’s fine too.
Here is the
dialogue between this person and myself about this opportunity. Follow along
with me and perhaps you’ll get something from it you can use.

Hi Ter, Can you tell me
a little more about your real estate investor friend opportunity
Hello (Name not shown to
protect the innocent); sure I know you - read your posts all the time. I'm with
clients all day today. Will get back to you tonight or (most likely) tomorow.
Ter
Sounds good Ter, today
& tonight are a little hectic anyway. Talk to you later (Name not shown to
protect the innocent).
I know that they were
expanding but I don’t know if they are in your area or if you would qualify. I
do know that they have a 3 step online interview process. Scott is in meetings
all week but if you want me to, I can see if I can get you in and get back to
you on later today, what’s the best way to get back to you, do you have Google
voice of Skype; I don't want to have int'l phone charges?
I have Skype on my tablet
but I have never tested it. Seems Facebook has a phone now. Let me know a good
time and I could do a test call to you and visa versa
(Name), this week got away
from me; let's communicate Monday. For now I won't need skype; just your email
to send you the online live webinar links after we chat. Then if you would like
to proceed after the interview process, we can Skype. Have a super weekend.
Sounds good Ter. My
email is (email address). You enjoy the
weekend as well
Super, please
"ping" me on Monday noonish if I haven't gotten to you yet.
OK
Would a little after
1pm. Be OK. I have a lunch meeting.
Perfect. I actually have
a2 o'clock appointment so we'll try to chat between 1 & 2.
Sounds good
Hi (Name); will you be
available via FB messaging in about 15 minutes?
Sorry Ter not at this
time
I had Monday scheduled
for you; let me know if Weds or Thurs works.
Actually after
reflection I think my plate is kinda full. Work is going to be busy over the
next six months. Also I just purchased a rental myself and I'm learning the
ropes with that so I think I should put this off. Thank for your time and
gracious offer Ter and if things change I'll let you know. Although it did
sound interesting, thanks again
Thanks (Name), and congrats
on getting your rental. I'm sorry for the "delays" but life has a way
of testing us and our commitment; our "I Quit" ratio toward things.
Success is simple but not easy and not always convenient. (This guy wants me to
bring leaders to him and not waste his time, so I purposely "test"
people. I wish you the best and when things change for you, let me know; he
still may be looking for partners. Make it a great day! Ter
PS. I'm working with
this guy to bring Lyoness/Lyconet to USA and Canada from Austria. His short
video here is worth watching because it applies to anything you do. It's my
gift to you: https://vimeo.com/131696318

So dear
reader, if that was you on the other side of this conversation, how many
inconveniences would you endure to get what you want? This particular business
of my friend’s is about $250,000 or more per year with another side benefit
program that realizes $10,000 to $20,000 a month. This kinda gives new meaning
to “hang in there”.
Make it a
great day!

Legacy Coach
NOTE
TO READER: If you are interested in real
estate investing (regardless where you live in USA and Canada) let me know
and I can tell you if my friend Scott is expanding his business in your area
(he has 12 offices and expanding all the time).
Secondly,
if you’ve not heard of Lyoness/Lyconet
(John’s video above), you will. It’s a way for anyone, anywhere to save on
everything that they are already buying at the businesses they are already
shopping at. You really don’t change anything in your buying habits and get
money back; that’s why it is taking the country by storm. My regular readers know
that I always offer value in anything and everything I do so this is no
exception. I am giving away a FREE SHOPPING CARD to anyone who requests it at
my 24/7 National Message Center: 888-241-6777. Just mention FREE SHOPPING CARD, your name and phone
number with best time of day to get back to you. (I’m also looking for people
interested in marketing the card and setting up a community of businesses in
their area. When leaving your message and you are interested in being a
“builder” state that in your message also.
