Bedros Keuilian Success Secrets
I look at this every day. It’s 11.5 inches long. I have 3 of these papers, 11.5 inches long, laminated, and filled with the secrets of success from one of the greatest leaders in the fitness industry. This leader is one of the most generous people I know. He donates to Shriner’s Hospital (over $100,000…
Read MoreHow To Help And Find New Affiliates
500 affiliates. Wouldn’t it be nice? I was recently inspired by something Rick Kaselj mentioned. He wrote that he had contacted over 500 affiliates for his Fix Your Back Pain launch. That’s incredible. Let’s say that 400 of those folks make just an average of 3 sales…that’s still 1200 customers. And then the remaining 20%…
Read MoreBad Idea Jeans Workout
This is what I call a “Bad Idea Jeans” workout. Do you remember that skit from Saturday Night Live back in the 90′s? It was one of my favorites. It included classic quotes like this one: Guy #3: “Well, he’s an ex free-base addict, and he’s trying to turn around, and he needs a place…

Read MoreThe Truth About Money
Today is the day you discover the politically incorrect truth about money. This lesson will probably be much different than the one your parents taught you. I know my mother would disagree with what I’m about to say. Pinching pennies is a losing game. Obsessing about cutting costs is a waste of your valuable time…
Read MoreHow to Receive More in Life
On Saturday afternoon I met an Internet multimillionaire colleague of mine in Ann Arbor, Michigan at Qdoba. He was generous enough to treat me to a lunch of a Naked Burrito and water. But more important, we had a great conversation about what’s working in sales letters, copy, promotions, front-end sales funnels, and back-end upsells.…
Read MoreSuper Insane Open Rate
Yes, there was an SNL reference in my headline. You might remember Super Happy Fun Ball from the Phil Hartman glory days of SNL back in the early 90’s. I loved that skit. Almost as much as I love super insane open rates today. Recently I helped out Mike Geary to share his “101 Foods…
Read MoreIt is Not Too Late to Start This
He was my hero. I was just a 5 year old kid when this “Superman” came to town. And to this day his story still brings a tear to my eye. What he achieved, against the obstacles he overcame, makes almost everything we struggle with seem so inconsequential in comparison. His story below, but first,…
Read More30 minute bodyweight beach workout
I almost broke both my wrists last night. It was dark. Pitch black. And I was foolishly attempting to make my way back to Bungalow 2, my room for the weekend at Playa Escondida here in Puerto Vallarta. I chose to take the unlit, narrow garden pathway instead of the safer roadway. Eventually I came…
Read MoreSuccess Secrets of Dr. Ferruggia
He’s the one they call Dr. Ferruggia, he’s the one that’s going to give you a mental kick in the butt. He’s the one they call Dr. Ferruggia, and he’s the one that’s going to make you feel alright… (Apologies to Motley Crue for the butchered lyrics of Dr. Feelgood.) …but thanks to Rick Kaselj,…
