How To Become An Internet 'Rainmaker' With 5 Simple Steps!
Dear Fellow Infopreneur
My friend Jo Han Mok asked me to share this 5 simple steps to become an
Internet Rainmaker with you.
by Jo Han Mok
I snigger to myself when I think about the success one of my coaching clients
has achieved. I created a simple website from 'scratch' that is currently bringing
him over 150k a year.
And guess what? It's a niche that I have absolutely no knowledge in.
Specifically, that niche is Real Estate Investing.
What makes this even more interesting is the fact that my client:
* Is completely clueless about Internet Marketing. He can't design a website, and even has difficulty with Microsoft Word.
* Is unknown in his niche (was is a probably more accurate term as he's pretty famous now.)
* Has a day job, so he has hardly any time to devote to his Internet business.
What he does have though, is his own unique system for making money off Real
Estate Investing, which is why he could afford my consulting fees.I can still recall
our conversation which went like this..."Jo Han, I'm paying you big bucks, what
kind of results can you promise me?"

What he does have though, is his own unique system for making money off Real
Estate Investing, which is why he could afford my consulting fees.I can still recall
our conversation which went like this..."Jo Han, I'm paying you big bucks, what
kind of results can you promise me?"
"I told him, I can't make you any income promises, but I assure you if you
follow what I say, you will get results.
"Ok, great!"
Following that, he did as he was told, and in 3 months, his website started
pulling $12,000 a month, and this figure has been growing ever since.
So how did I go about engineering my client's success with these seemingly
'impossible' circumstances?
It was simple. I simply STUCK TO THE BASICS.
Step #1: I Identified What The Market Wanted.I didn't leave anything to guesswork.
I didn't try to act smart and think if they 'needed' anything. I snooped
around in forums, checked out the competition, and found out what was
giving this target market stomach ulcers and keeping them awake at night.
Step #2: I Engineered A 'Warp Speed' Product Creation Model.
I told my client to leverage off other people's resources so that he could
get a product done with minimum effort, and we also engineered continuity
into this product so that he could have steady, dependable cash flow
every single month.
Step #3: I Created A Killer Sales Letter.
It wasn't enough just to write well. I had to speak the "Real Esatate" language.
I spent time immersing myself in the jargon, the 'lingo' so that my copy was
as emphathetic as possible.
Step #4: I Automated The Website.
This enabled my client to work 'on' his business instead of working 'in' his business.
All he had to do was to focus on promoting the site.
Step #5: I Introduced An Affiliate Program.
There was only so much he could 'sell' by himself. By using 'performance marketing',
he could duplicate himself and leverage off the efforts of other people with no cost
to himself. And basically that's it. Now he even has a nice sized list, and he's making
even more money on the backend through joint ventures and running endorsement
mailings. (This is not included in the 150k he's making from the site, which makes his
total online income a year probably 200k or more.)
So what's my point?
My point is anyone who is reading this article probably already knows the
'5 step formula' I mentioned above, and if you have this formula at your
fingertips, you can literally become a rainmaker in any niche.

The Formula for Failure and Success
Dear Fellow Infopreneurs,
You are going to get to read a short article that had a huge impact
on my life. It is, perhaps, the best personal developement article
I've ever read.
It's called 'TheFormula For Failure and Success',
by Jim Rohn. Read it, understand it, and apply it!
Your life will never be the same.

The Formula for Failure and Success by Jim Rohn
Failure is not a single, cataclysmic event. We do not fail overnight.
Failure is the inevitable result of an accumulation of poor thinking and
poor choices. To put it more simply, failure is nothing more than a few
errors in judgment repeated every day.
Now why would someone make an error in judgment and then be so
foolish as to repeat it every day?
The answer is because he or she does not think that it matters. On their own,
our daily acts do not seem that important. A minor oversight, a poor decision,
or a wasted hour generally doesn't result in an instant and measurable impact.
More often than not, we escape from any immediate consequences
of our deeds. If we have not bothered to read a single book in the past
ninety days, this lack of discipline does not seem to have my immediate
impact on our lives. And since nothing drastic happened to us after the
first ninety days, we repeat this error in judgment for another ninety days,
and on and on it goes.
Why?
Because it doesn't seem to matter.
And herein lies the great danger. Far worse than not reading the books is
not even realizing that it matters!
Those who eat too many of the wrong foods are contributing to a
future health problem, but the joy of the moment overshadows the
consequence of the future.
It does not seem to matter.
Those who smoke too much or drink too much go on making these
poor choices year after year after year... because it doesn't seem
to matter. But the pain and regret of these errors in judgment have
only been delayed for a future time.
Consequences are seldom instant; instead, they accumulate until the
inevitable day of reckoning finally arrives and the price must be paid
for our poor choices - choices that didn't seem to matter.
Failure's most dangerous attribute is its subtlety. In the short term those
little errors don't seem to make any difference. We do not seem to be failing.
In fact, sometimes these accumulated errors in judgment occur throughout
a period of great joy and prosperity in our lives.
Since nothing terrible happens to us, since there are no instant
consequences to capture our attention, we simply drift from one day
to the next, repeating the errors, thinking the wrong thoughts,
listening to the wrong voices and making the wrong choices.
The sky did not fall in on us yesterday; therefore the act was probably
harmless. Since it seemed to have no measurable consequence, it is
probably safe to repeat.
But we must become better educated than that!
If at the end of the day when we made our first error in judgment the sky
had fallen in on us, we undoubtedly would have taken immediate steps to
ensure that the act would never be repeated again.
Like the child who places his hand on a hot burner despite his parents'
warnings, we would have had an instantaneous experience accompanying
our error in judgment.
Unfortunately, failure does not shout out its warnings as our parents once did.
This is why it is imperative to refine our philosophy in order to be able to
make better choices. With a powerful, personal philosophy guiding our
every step, we become more aware of our errors in judgment and more
aware that each error really does matter.
Now here is the great news.
Just like the formula for failure, the formula for success is easy to follow:
It's a few simple disciplines practiced every day. Now here is an interesting
question worth pondering:
How can we change the errors in the formula for failure into the disciplines
required in the formula for success?
The answer is by making the future an important part of our current philosophy.
Both success and failure involve future consequences, namely the inevitable
rewards or unavoidable regrets resulting from past activities.
If this is true, why don't more people take time to ponder the future?
The answer is simple:
They are so caught up in the current moment that it doesn't seem to matter.
The problems and the rewards of today are so absorbing to some human
beings that they never pause long enough to think about tomorrow.
But what if we did develop a new discipline to take just a few minutes
every day to look a little further down the road? We would then be able to
foresee the impending consequences of our current conduct.
Armed with that valuable information, we would be able to take the
necessary action to change our errors into new success-oriented disciplines.
In other words, by disciplining ourselves to see the future in advance,
we would be able to change our thinking, amend our errors and develop
new habits to replace the old. One of the exciting things about the
formula for success- A few simple disciplines practiced every day - is that
the results are almost immediate.
As we voluntarily change daily errors into daily disciplines, we experience
positive results in a very short period of time. When we change our diet,
our health improves noticeably in just a few weeks. When we start exercising,
we feel a new vitality almost immediately. When we begin reading,
we experience a growing awareness and a new level of self-confidence.
Whatever new discipline we begin to practice daily will produce exciting
results that will drive us to become even better at developing new disciplines.
The real magic of new disciplines is that they will cause us to amend
our thinking. If we were to start today to read the books, keep a journal,
attend the classes, listen more and observe more, then today would be the
first day of a new life leading to a better future.
If we were to start today to try harder, and in every way make a conscious
and consistent effort to change subtle and deadly errors into constructive
and rewarding disciplines, we would never again settle for a life of existence
- not once we have the fruits of a life of substance!
