Do you believe the following lies?
Money doesn’t grow on trees.
You have to spend money to make money.
The higher the risk, the higher the reward.
It takes a long time to make money.
You have to put in long hours to make money.
You’re sure to succeed if you buy a franchise.
If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
OK. Let’s examine the above and then I’ll tell you why it’s good to get lazy and cheap when you work.
Money doesn’t grow on trees.
That is indicative of scarcity thinking, like people who fear their competition. Like there’s not enough to go around – a shrinking pie. People who believe that have never discovered a money tree. What’s that? Read on, Ginger.
You have to spend money to make money.
Every resource you need, including money, credit, reputation and skills, is already available to you through someone else. Why buy it if you can borrow it? We are surrounded by underutilized resources and hidden assets. Don’t spend your money.
The higher the risk, the higher the reward.
I say, “The higher the risk you take, the lower your IQ!” Ask any gambler. If all the resources are already available o you, you can do business with no money and no risk. Conventional new business start-ups have an 87% of failure. Vegas is starting to look good…
It takes a long time to make money.
In the Industrial Age, that was true. Not now. Not in the Information Age. You can do a deal in one hour that makes you $40,000. Joint Venture Brokers do it all the time.
You have to put in long hours to make money.
Same as above. (See? I save time.)
You’re sure to succeed if you buy a franchise.
Yeah, right! That’s what some sales people tell you with their skewed statistics and paid testimonials. Not true.
If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
Someone who earns $5,000 per month and doesn’t understand business and leverage will find it hard to believe that you can make thousands of dollars with very little time, no money and no risk. To him, it sounds too good to be true. Nevertheless, it IS true.
Right. Now you want to hear about cheap, lazy and money trees.
As a Joint Venture Broker, you should decide to expend the minimum amount of effort and time on any deal. You should resolve not to spend your own money. You should choose to do every deal with no money, no risk and the minimum amount of time. And you can, if you know how. By leveraging the resources of others, you gain leverage on those who control the assets / resources. By removing the risk, you sleep like a baby pig at night, with no worries; if things don’t work out as expected, everyone remains friends, you don’t lose the family farm, and you simply move on to the next exciting opportunity.
You’re not really cheap, you’re simply not spending money in order to get commitment and buy-in from your JV partners. “Lazy” means you’re not a common laborer but a person with an actual brain. Use you head, not your hands. Work smart, not hard. Joint Venture Brokers simply link supply with demand and reap the ongoing rewards – they take a piece of the ongoing profit generated. They are paid for results instead of empty promises. Brokers don’t go broke. (You like that one?)
Let me give you a simple, real-life example of a Joint Venture created only yesterday by a very smart young man by the name of Michal Jaster, a respected Member of the DollarMakers Joint Venture Forum, who has attended our Bootcamp and understand how JV’s work. Michal approached a marketing company to market my keynote speeches and in-house Joint Venture Bootcamps. He set up a conference call between me and the marketing company. If the deal works out, Michael will earn $2,500 every time I speak as a result of the efforts of this marketing company, without spending a dime and without any more time invested, outside of the two hours he invested to set the deal up. No money, no risk, total two hours invested. And if it doesn’t work out, it only cost him two hours and he learned how to do it better next time, plus he made new friends / contacts. If it does work out, he will earn ongoing passive income at 100% profit.
That Money Tree? That represents the back end income and additional options that become clear and available to someone with the JV mindset. In addition to the $2,500 that Michal will earn every time I waddle around on a stage somewhere in the world, he will also earn commissions from five additional income streams that we will easily build into the process. Ka-Ching!!!
And then people ask me why I love being a JV Broker. For more information on how you can become a JV Broker, regardless of your age, background or circumstances, visit www.DollarMakers.com
