Description

 Boom! What's going on everyone? It's Steve Larsen.   This is Sales Funnel Radio, and today we're going to talk about some easy add-ons you can put to your products.   I've spent the last four years learning from the most brilliant marketers today. And now I've left my nine-to-five to take the plunge and build my million-dollar business.   The real question is, how will I do it without VC funding or debt completely from scratch? This podcast is here to give you the answer.   Join me, and follow along as I learn, apply, and share marketing strategies to grow my online business using only today's best internet sales funnels.   My name is Steve Larsen, and welcome to Sales Funnel Radio.   What's up, guys? Hey, I don't know if you're like me, but my favorite part of going to movies a lot of times is the previews ahead of time.   I remember we were driving to a movie, and I didn't want to go to it anymore because I knew we would just get there in time for the movie. This might be a little bit weird, but I love watching the previews. I love being sold. I love being sold. Being sold is so fun.   There's a guy who came, and he walked through our front door, and he said, "Hey, I wanna give you some pest control ... or carpet cleaning... or this or that." I love the sales process. It's so fun. It's really really cool to see in action.   Infomercials, oh my gosh. I can watch infomercials... matter of fact, I have done that many times. I just watch the infomercial for the sake of the infomercial because I don't want to watch whatever show is on. I've done that multiple times. I love the act of selling.   In infomercials, though, you guys have seen, back, I don't know, several years ago, I would watch (definitely like six, seven, even eight years ago), I would watch these infomercials, and even just in general, you'd see these products that people would come out with. And you'd see these infomercial guys like, "You're gonna get this... and it's the CD set."   And it's all these CDs. It's this course laid out in all these CDs, like 12 CDs. Now, spacing-wise, it could easily fit on one CD, but they know it looks bigger if it's on 12 so, "You're gonna get this 12-CD set!"   And you're like, "Wow, that's crazy cool!" "You're also gonna get this workbook over here." "Wow, that's cool." "You're also gonna get the personal book "from the author as well, from the creator of the course. "They've also authored a book. "We're gonna give you that book." "Wow, that's cool!" "You're also gonna get this checklist." "Wow, that's cool." Right, and they're masters at creating offers.   And even when it's like the ShamWow guy, right, I don't remember his name. ShamWow guy, right, "If you act in the next 15 minutes, "we're gonna give you two ShamWows for the price of one." What! "We're also gonna throw in four mini ones "in case you're ever in the car." What!   Right, they're building an offer. That's an offer. The infomercial people are experts at creating these offers, and that's exactly what we do on the internet. We create these offers and put them all together.   Well, my perception of what it took to create a product was like way up here. I mean, it was so big because I would see these guys. You know, and I'd see these guys, and they'd be creating, "You're gonna get this CD set. "You're gonna get the workbook. "You're gonna get the transcriptions. "You're gonna get this and this and this." And it was like, "Wow! "Gurus are telling me to go and actually create."   (My phone's going off over there. No, alright. Sorry about that.)... But it was my perception that I would have to go and create these massive massive products. And it ended up becoming a block to me, right.   I'd be like, "Man, these gurus, "they're saying the only way for me to get out there and actually go create success with this stuff" is for me to go and make, "I gotta have this CD course set. I gotta have the workbook. I gotta have this, I gotta have this, I gotta have this or this."   I

My first 5 years in entrepreneurship was 34 painful product failures in a row (you heard me). Finally, on #35 it clicked, and for the next 4 years, 55 NEW offers made over $11m. I’ve learned enough to see a few flaws in my baby business… So, as entrepreneurs do, I built it up, just to burn it ALL down; deleting 50 products, and starting fresh. We’re a group of capitalist pig-loving entrepreneurs who are actively trying to get rich and give back.
