How To Go From Zero To 8 Figures Using Amazon And Direct Response

This is how my team and I, a team of four people, were able to build several companies that went to seven figures, one that went to eight figures and sold. Because we put this much attention on audience building and direct response to be able to control the channel and then partner it with something like Amazon.com and when the two come together, million dollar businesses are born.

You're listening to Freedom fastlane presented by capitalism.com this is the show building businesses and investing the profits so that you can live life on your terms.

There has never been a better time to sell on Amazon if you know the right strategies. In this presentation from Traffic and Conversion Summit 2018 in San Diego, Ryan talks about how to build a real brand that is sellable. Listen to this talk to learn about Ryan's approach using direct response and Amazon so that you too can work towards an eight figure exit.

Thank you.

Hey, thank you all for being here. I feel really humbled and excited to be with you today because I think it was eight years ago I got this email from this Internet scam artist by the name of Ryan Dace or Dice or something. Have you guys ever heard of this guy? If you do.

Don'T open that email. And he invited me. Apparently I had bought something. I didn't remember buying anything, but I had bought something that got me a ticket to this event called Traffic and Conversion Summit. It was the first Traffic and Conversion Summit and for me, I thought there were like a thousand people there. They tell me now there are about 150. It seemed like a big deal to me and I had been doing what we call the Internet thing for a couple of years and seeing how real businesses were built completely changed my brain and it completely changed the course of my career. And at the end of the event, scam artist Ryan Dice, he says if you're an affiliate, which I was at the time, says if you're an affiliate marketer or if you don't have a product and customers who buy from you frequently, you don't have a real business.

And at this point I had been doing a lot of search engine optimization, I had been doing a lot of affiliate marketing, I had a few digital products and I went, oh, I guess it means I don't have a real business.

So it was at the end of that event that they did their big pitch for this thing that they were starting called War Room. And I'm told that I was the first applicant for War Room and also the youngest in history. I think I was 22 years old and I applied for War Room and had no business being in this room. And I went to be in this room because I just wanted to see how entrepreneurs who were running seven and eight figure companies were running them because I was making six figures out of college, but just kind of figuring it out and guessing. And I go into this room, and in the first meeting, I pulled Perry aside. I don't even know why they let me in, by the way, but I pulled Perry aside and I said, hey, Perry, if you were me and you were young, if you were figuring this game out, what would you do? And he said, as many chicks as possible.

And then he said, you know what I would do? I'd sell stuff.

Everybody else is selling hopes and dreams and taking on clients. Just people are always gonna buy stuff. And that sat with me for a little while. And I had made all of the money that I had made in my career up to that point by getting really good at channel optimization. So Google was a channel. I was pretty darn good at search engine optimization. That's where all the eyeballs were hanging out at the time. Back in the olden days, there was this site called Google Joogle. Might have been a soft G, but anyway, it was where people search, look it up on Wikipedia. And I was also good at channels like ClickBank, where people were selling digital products. So I had figured out the channel optimization piece of finding out where the buyers and the eyeballs and the traffic was and just going and putting my stuff in front of those eyeballs and those buyers. So when Perry says to me, if I were you, I'd sell stuff, I said, okay, where is all the stuff being sold? And it was right around that time that Amazon was starting to really explode. And so I became fascinated where E commerce was starting to go, where the puck was heading. So I decided to go all in on releasing physical products on Amazon.com now. There was one other thing that that Ryan Dice character said to me, and we were on the phone and I was asking him a little bit about structuring businesses and, like, building a real business. And Ryan said something kind of in passing that stuck with me, and it really changed my brain. He said, most people get into this world because they want the lifestyle of living. What did he say? Something like laying on the beach or partying and drinking and celebrating all the big wins you're having. He said, and you get to do that, but you get to do it when you sell, Meaning you sell the business. You get to relax, you get to have your time when you sell the business. So These three things stuck with me and it was these three things of building a real business. And as a result I looked at channels that were selling real stuff. This to me meant e Commerce and Amazon.com with the intention of selling a business. So this was the context through which I'm starting to look at building one of these businesses. So fast forward a few years. I called up three buddies that I had wanted to work with over the years. Each one of us came up with three ideas. We launched three physical products. Brands started on Amazon.com, two of which I sold one of them to a private equity group for eight figures. Another I still hold to this day. And that context has completely changed the way that I look about launching businesses and structuring them for sale. And along the way I was documenting what I was doing on a podcast called Freedom Fast Lane. And as a result of people subscribing to that and listening to that, I'm from what people tell me and self reporting, I know we can count over 100 people building seven figure businesses. And I also know of a few people in our mastermind or in our community that have sold for eight figures. And I have one. One student, this blows my mind. His business is on the market right now for $72 million. It's him and his wife. I think they have one full time employee. They started the business three and a half years ago completely on Amazon. I don't even think they have a website. I don't know if they'll get the full 72, but they have interested buyers. So all of this to say what I'm going to lay out for you in 30 minutes or so is the complete customer loop and the complete vision of what it looks like to go from zero to eight figures or from zero to a business that you can sell for eight figures using direct response and specifically Amazon.com now I'm agnostic to Amazon. I'm agnostic to the path that gets us there. What I focus on and what fascinates me is looking at where the buyers are, looking at where the puck is headed, getting in front of those customers and putting products where they're already hanging out and maximizing those channels. So it's important for us to look at where the puck is heading right now. But please understand that if you are in direct response, if you're in digital marketing, you have a very, very unique skill. You have a very coveted skill and it's of getting in front of eyeballs, it's getting in front of people, putting a message in front of people, putting a product in front of people. By show of hands, how many of you, if you ran a good ad, sent an email out, you would know the how to piece of getting in front of 100,000 people. You know what buttons to push to be in front of 100,000. All of you who raise your hand should have a seven figure income stream. All of you can have a seven figure physical products brand that can be sold. Now there's a bit of a bit of a problem specifically in this community that I have run into and it's this mindset of most of us got into this game because we wanted a better life. Most of us got into this game because we were moving away from some sort of life that we wanted to get away from. We had a vision for what we wanted our lives to look like. And we tend to play this game of comparing numbers to one another, of saying who's crushing it and modeling everybody else. Which means that we end up like you sell something on Fiverr and then you do $1,000 product launch and how to make money on Fiverr and they pitch the lifestyle and we miss the piece of building a real business. And to me, a real business is measured on would there be a market for, for someone to buy this business? Can I step away from the business and somebody else acquire the business and give me a big check? So ultimately, if you don't have something that can be sold, I would argue that you are now in a, maybe even a worse position because you will not have the exit and the lifestyle that you desire. If you desire to stop doing that business, if you desire to step away from the business. The good news is almost every market and almost every pool of eyeballs, almost every audience has the ability to bolt on a physical products brand and that piece can be sold. So that piece if built independent from if you have digital products or if you are a thought leader and you have the ability to take that audience and bolt on a physical products brand, which almost every industry does, that can be the sellable piece. So that's where my focus has been since the sale of my business. I now run capitalism.com, we essentially accelerate and incubate physical products brands. I also work with influencers and people who have audiences and, and develop the physical products brands for them and we work together on that. But I think it's important for us to look at where we are in the state of things because new entrepreneurs who come to me often ask, is there still an opportunity here? What is the State of Amazon and E Commerce. So, very briefly, Amazon.com specifically has doubled in the last 36 months. It's projected to double, double again by 2020. But I'm fascinated by two big things that happened in the last 12 months. And the first was Amazon made a little acquisition. Did anybody hear about this? What did they buy? They bought Whole Foods, right? And you're starting to see the integration. If you walked into a Whole Foods recently, you're starting to see the integration of the two companies. They have Amazon lockers at Whole Foods. They're actually incentivizing you to use Amazon credit cards at Whole Foods, which is fascinating. It is only a matter of time. When you have a product, it's doing well on Amazon.com and then you walk into your neighborhood friendly Whole Foods, and someone in the back is like, hey, these widgets are killing it in Atlanta. Put them on the shelves. Somebody at Amazon has all that data, verifies it, ships it over to the local Whole Foods, and you walk in and you see your product on the shelf and you didn't do nothing to make that happen. It is only a matter of time. And Amazon is not done making those acquisitions. It would not surprise me if Target is next, but it is coming where retail is completely driven by Internet data. And I've had a couple conversations with executives at Walmart, and if they would get their act together, they could so do this well. But they're bloated with bureaucracy. They're the only player that might be able to do this better because they've done acquisitions like they bought bonobos and they bought up a lot of boutique businesses, they would have the ability to do the exact same thing. If Walmart.com ever becomes a legitimate player, which they're really trying to do, they will have the exact same experience where if you can prove that you have legs on something like Walmart.com, you will start to show up in 20,000 Walmarts all across the country and across the world. It is only a matter of time before retail becomes completely integrated by Internet retailers. That is going to happen. So that excites me because all of a sudden, the distribution model becomes much, much bigger. This is not just an Internet play or an Amazon play when you look at where that puck is going. But there was another thing that happened in the last 12 months that I think is pointing what is about to happen. And it's this. Are any of you familiar with rxbar? Does anybody know what they were sold for? I've heard 180, I've heard, 600 million in the hundreds of millions. They were bought by Kellogg's. So Kellogg's buys this, what seems to be very simple, fairly new brand called RXBar, for hundreds of millions of dollars. Their profit margins were this big. It's not like it was that hard to rip off the product. The branding was super simple. The ingredients were on the front of the package, and that brand sold for who knows how much, but at least a few hundred million dollars. What this points to me is that there is a major interest from large corporations to start acquiring brands, even really tiny brands. I was meeting with a private equity group in New York City a few days ago. It was started by some guys from Bain Capital. And they were saying, ultimately, at the end of the day, what they are buying is the brand. It's not like there's a whole lot of businesses that can't be ripped off. It's not like there's a whole lot of products that can't be completely duplicated. It's not like any physical product has that much of a sweet sauce to be that different in the market. What they're ultimately buying is the brand. And the assets within the brand are things like distribution. There are things like customer base, their differentiation, its audience. These are the things that they're ultimately purchasing. So us as entrepreneurs, us as business owners, if we focus on these things, we all of a sudden have a very similar scalable and sellable brand. And all of you, if you know anything about digital marketing, if you know anything about getting in front of human eyeballs that ultimately become purchasers, you have a very, very distinct advantage. You have a head start on being able to create one of these brands that can ultimately be sold. And there are private equity groups and there are major businesses throwing money at even very small brands because they can see where the trend is going. And so it is almost irresponsible, in my opinion, to not have your attention in this space to see where the money and the eyeballs are going. Turns out the valuations on physical products brands are really high right now because they have things like, unlike bitcoin and cryptocurrency, they have things like utility and value. Bitcoin is the dumbest thing ever anyway. So what we're gonna do, I know I'm in the minority on that one, but you can show me the utility. All right, so what we're gonna do here, I wanna draw up for you the journey of most entrepreneurs. Are you familiar with the hero's journey? All right, so Help me out here. This is the journey of. That's Kareem Abdul Jabbar right there. This is Hank. And where does the hero's journey start? What's that? Yeah, it always starts with a call to adventure. Right. So this is for me. This is when I heard my mom crying in the other room because I had broken the washing machine.

I was 14 or 15 years old.

I worked at Dunkin Donuts, decided I wanted a different life because I didn't want to ever be worried about a $50 repair on a washing machine. I worked at Dunkin Donuts. Then my one of my customers gave me a copy of Rich Dad, Poor Dad. I Learned the that 10% of the world's population makes 90% of the wealth. No part of me thought that was unethical or bad. I said, great. I guess I got to find out how to be in that 10%. If 10% of people provide 90% of the value, I just want to be one of those 10%. So this is the call to adventure. And then what happens? You have a resistance to the call, and then you meet a mentor. Donald Miller says every story is a hero's journey, which I find interesting. And along the way, you run into problems, and the mentor helps you navigate these problems. This is things like, this is me going to traffic and conversion summit and 2008 or whatever it was. You run into problems along the way. Things like, what business model am I going to follow? What product am I going to sell? How am I going to get it to market? Right. And then you come down to a crisis of meaning. This is, oh, what was it all for? What am I doing with my life? I have products in the world, and I'm still not happy. Turns out money doesn't solve all my problems. And then you have what comes next? I don't remember. Something else happens, and then you have a journey home. And to me, in the return to Home, this is where you sell. This is where you sell your business. Hey, guys, this is Ryan. We're going to take a quick break.

And we'll return to the show in a second.

Hey, guys.

You know that my financial strategy is to build businesses and to invest the profits.

And when it comes to investing the profits, I look for cash flow.

I look for it to be backed by something real, and I look for tax efficiency. It's why when I recently sold a business, I called the good folks over at Four Peaks Capital Partners. And today's episode is brought to you by them.

You've heard them on the Podcast before.

When I interviewed Mauricio Rauld on the topic of Mailbox Money and why investment funds could be a source of passive cash flow for some entrepreneurs. I use investment funds like Four Peaks as part of my long term strategy and I'd encourage you to go listen to the episode called How Rich People Generate Mailbox Money and you might want to check them out if you're looking for opportunities. Right now with asset prices as high as they are, I am mostly looking at cash flow opportunities, which is why I had them on the podcast. So make sure you check out that episode on Mailbox Money with Mauricio Rauld.

So the entrepreneur's journey in most cases I don't think really completes unless you have something that comes through this entire experience, meaning you have the sale and now you can invest for passive income and do whatever the heck you want. And then you'll realize that doesn't make you happy and the next adventure is going to Tony Robbins or doing Ayahuasca or something.

So in my opinion, the business doesn't have a complete loop until we have this in mind. Are we keeping this in mind? The return home in the hero's journey, do we have the ability to sell, do whatever the heck we want? And if not, in this world we're going to be trapped. And if you have lived in this marketing world for more than like eight minutes, there are a lot of people who are caught in this trap. They're caught right here where they have products, they have no idea what they're doing with their lives and they're having crisis of meetings over and over and over again and they cover it up with more success and they cover it up with the next thing that they're going to do, or posting private jet photos on Facebook or something like that, trying, trying to find the completion of the loop. So what I'm going to walk you through here is I break it into kind of three stages. Three stages to eight figures here. So the foundation of this business in my mind starts with the target market and the three to five products that that target market already buys. So I said this from Sage at a different event. The presentation of that has about 2 million views on YouTube. And I said this one thing kind of offhand and so many people have told me that it completely changed their business. And it was Simply this, that three to five products that sold on average of 30 sales a day at an average price point of about $30 was a million dollar business. So the question becomes, how do we identify for most people for Entrepreneurs who are here. I know I want to be an entrepreneur. My problem, what do I want? What business am I going to be in? What product am I going to have? The question for me is always, who's the person? And what three to five products do they already buy that we could just put in front of them? So if you have an audience, if you have a personal brand, if you've got a digital product, and you have a very specific target market, then the question is, okay, what three to five physical products do they already have that they're buying from somebody else? Or what three to five products are you recommending as an affiliate? The easy example that I've used before is if you're in the yoga space, what's the first thing they buy? Probably a yoga mat. And then they buy. Did somebody say a beard?

I still don't know what you said. So then they buy a yoga beard.

And then they buy some beard oil for their yoga beard. So when we're looking at the person, the three to five products become very, very clear. The next piece is the audience. And if you have an audience, if you put in the time and the work to build the audience, the ability to launch products to this level becomes very, very fast, almost scary fast. We'll talk a little bit about why in a second. And then at the top here, at the top of the Illuminati pyramid, we have the product differentiation, or what some people would call branding. And this is the piece that ultimately is going to put us over eight figures. Now, full disclosure, we can get these out of order and be fine. So, for example, my favorite people to work with are the businesses that have these two things figured out. So a great example of this would be Bulletproof. Dave starts a blog, he has an audience, he's talking about various products, and he comes out with bulletproof coffee mold free coffee. That's the first product in the brand. Now, if Dave wanted to be a coffee company, his second product would have been a dark roast. But the people who were reading the Bulletproof blog were not necessarily coffee drinkers as much as they were what they were into high performance.

So the next product is MCT Oil, and then it's upgraded MCT Oil. And then that wasn't upgraded, it was more upgraded MCT Oil. And then it was started to be supplements, and now it's the Vibe. And now he has this whole suite of products ranging from $20 bag of coffee or $15,000 retreat. Now, that doesn't happen if you're a coffee company that only Happens if you're targeting a very specific person and looking at the overall customer journey, looking at, okay, who is the person, what problems do they have? It's your job to be the mentor. It is your job as a business to introduce the solutions to their problems. So bulletproof has the audience, they come out with some sort of differentiation and as a result that business explodes. These are the easiest businesses to incubate and explode and get to eight figures because the product roll out process becomes very, very quickly. If any of you have a big audience and a differentiated brand, come talk to me afterwards. I would love to, to launch a seven figure business to that brand. It's really, really fast and easy to be able to build a sellable and a scalable physical products brand if you have these two pieces figured out now at the bottom. If we're just starting with a business that we want to grow to seven and eight figures, a great example of this would be Quest Nutrition. So Quest Nutrition, six years ago, Tom Bilyeu exits his software company. He's literally baking his own Quest bars in I think a commercial kitchen. And he has one differentiating factor and it's that it's a fiber based bar, it's perfectly macro balanced, it's brand new to the marketplace. He has no way to get, he has no audience, he, he has no attention. So what does he do? He starts to build an audience. He did it with, I think this was pre Facebook groups. So I want to say they had a Facebook page, they did some giveaways, they built up a little audience and now they're able to release product number two, which I think was their protein powders and then the chips and then the hero bars. And now they're a billion dollar company six years later. So these are basically the three areas that you can do in any order. I work with a lot of entrepreneurs who are well funded and have a big vision, but they're starting at the bottom. So for that individual, this is sequential and it very simply looks like this, it's identifying the person. Then the three to five products that they already buy, picking the one that is simplest to start with, putting it in front of the eyeballs, putting it on the channel that is growing the fastest right now, that is Amazon.com and I have found in my experience that the first product, I would say the first three to five products when it's at about 50 to 100 reviews, starts to get close to this threshold of 30 sales a day just through organic traffic and organic growth. But the magic elixir the fast lane, if you will, is for those entrepreneurs who start to put their focus here. If you have the ability to hit send and be in front of 10,000 people, if you have the ability to put up a post on social media and have it seen by 25,000 people, if you have the ability to run Facebook ads, or if you're running any of the Facebook messenger stuff that all the kids are talking about these days, if you have the ability to run any of that direct response, this happens scary fast. And it becomes very, very simple, easy, and possible to do things like get reviews. In the Amazon world, the people who are optimizing Amazon, there's always a big debate about what are the best ways to get reviews, which drives me crazy, because the easiest and fastest way to get reviews is to have some background in direct response. And the direct response is very simply if you're driving traffic to an email list. There were businesses before Amazon.com and what people did is they did things like they threw up squeeze pages, they drove traffic to the squeeze page, and then they sold their physical products on their own store. And that still works, but if it's sent over to Amazon.com, amazon sees outside traffic like cocaine, and it starts to flood and get everybody super excited, and it starts to push you up Amazon's algorithm, it also becomes within your control to communicate with those customers as much as you want. Brand yourselves as much as you want, ask for support on sites like Amazon.com as much as you want. And this is how my team and I, a team of four people, were able to build several companies that went to seven figures, one that went to eight figures and sold. Because we put this much attention on audience building and direct response, to be able to control the channel and then partner it with something like Amazon.com and when the two come together, million dollar businesses are born. When a mommy audience and a daddy Amazon come together, million dollar audiences are born. That was funnier in my head. All right, so if you control the audience and you send that traffic to Amazon, Amazon freaks out, rewards you for outside traffic. And now you have an organic machine that is starting to produce sales. And this piece accelerates very, very quickly. Now, when we're looking at the top end of the Illuminati pyramid, one of the things that a lot of physical product sellers do in crypto incredibly poorly is running and leaning on where they're different, on going all in on where they're different and or what they stand for. What they stand for. The pain point that they Solve and leaning on those pieces in order to capture enough of the marketplace to be able to control an audience that you can launch products to. So when I'm working with a lot of physical product sellers, they've got this piece nailed. Like they know how to put products on Amazon and I call it grind their way to success, like beg for reviews until they're at that three to five products doing 30 a day and now they've got a million dollar ish business and they say, okay, what I'm gonna do now is I'm going to set up a Shopify store and I'm going to buy Facebook ads to sell my running iPhone holder and it's going to double my business because I'm going to have a second channel. And they know nothing about how to lean on what's different and or what they stand for or what pain point that they solve. So most, I would say the biggest pain point of people running million dollar businesses is they don't know how to make this pivot into leaning on where they're different. So they never really get the audience for you. Direct response marketers in the room. For those of you who are doing half of what we talk about at Traffic and Conversion, you already have this figured out, which makes it very easy to mail to something and to get this up and moving and towards a million dollar or a $10 million business. So one of the things that I try to beat into people's head is at this base, if we're not starting with a person and that person is on their own journey, then we've missed the point from the beginning. For example, if we're in weight loss and we're selling weight loss pills or food or whatever it is that we're selling to that market. Our job is to be the mentor to the person who is already on the call to adventure. It is no one's job to convince people to go on a call to adventure. It's your job to serve the people who are already on that call. It's why all the Garcinia Cambogia people are no longer in business because they just tried to persuade people onto a call to adventure rather than serving the people who are already here, identifying the problems they would have, releasing products specific to that audience and partnering it with a channel that would bring you and your business to eight figures and be sellable so you can retire off into the sunset. So as a business, that's your job to highlight and to build the audience around where you are different so that you are Capturing enough of the audience to be able to marry that to Amazon.com that is the sweet sauce. That is the magic formula. Most marketers are really good at one piece. They're good at the direct response piece. And then there's a lot of scrappy entrepreneurs who just want to make money, who get the Amazon piece and they know to go find the product and put it on Amazon. Very few people care enough about both to combine them. But if you do that, that is how eight figure businesses are born. And the reason is because Amazon rewards that outside traffic and because people are very hungry to rally behind a business and a brand that represents them as a person and speaks to their beliefs. On top of that, if we look at what businesses are being purchased right now, if we look at the private equity groups and where their money is going, if we look at the big brands and what they're buying, they are buying brands that serve a very specific audience. They are not buying commodity brands. They are buying brands that have a very specific target market. They're buying brands that have a portfolio of products and they're buying brands that are positioned on what they perceive to be the new player in town, which is the Internet. And Amazon.com that is where old money and big money is flowing. So, so if you get the direct response piece, which means you have an email list, you have an audience that you are speaking to, you have a Facebook following, you have a digital product with people that listen to you, or you're speaking to a very specific target market through social media, you're speaking to pain points and you have people who follow you. And you combine that with the list of products that that person and that avatar already buys. That is how you combine them, send them over to the channel that is already growing and that's how you very quickly incubate a seven figure business that scales to eight figures and can be acquired. Please understand that all of you in this room have a very, very unique skill set. And it's a skill set that big brands and old money cover of it more than you realize. You have the ability to impact industries and to impact people's lives. And so many marketers come to events like this and just look at how they can extract money from the pie. And if you bring something unique and of value to the marketplace that has either a unique positioning or a unique value offer to the marketplace, and it's something that people consume or hold in their hand, you're sitting on a very, very rare, unique opportunity in this experience of life. Because there is this changing of the guard and there is this desire for big brands. They're looking to acquire what you build and you have a very, very unique skill set that if leveraged properly at the right time, which is now, can become something that completely changes your financial.

Future and your family tree.

I happen to be of the opinion that if you give entrepreneurs the ability to run free, we will solve all the world's problems. I am of the opinion that government gets in the way, that no matter who the president is, they probably do more harm than good. That if government just got the hell out of our way and let entrepreneurs do their thing, that we would solve pretty much every problem that could ever be done. And all of you have that ability because you have the ability to get in front of people and used for good and used combined with the right strategy, you have the ability to do that and be rewarded very handsomely for it. So I consider a privilege to speak to entrepreneurs. My name is Ryan Daniel Moran. Thank you for having me at Traffic and Conversion Summit.

Hey fastlaners. So the days of sourcing a bunch of cheap products overseas, simply giving out a bunch of free product and racing for reviews with a me too commodity product are over. But there's never been a big better time to sell physical products online if you're building a real brand. Hey, share this podcast with an entrepreneur you know and we hope you found this valuable.

If you've been listening to the last few episodes of the show where we featured entrepreneurs who have crossed the seven figure mark and are on their way to eight figures, then you undoubtedly have heard us talk about the back room. The Backroom is a group mentoring program where we cast the vision for getting to $10 million a year and beyond and being ready to sell your company because ultimately that's where the big payday is going to come from. We also open up investment opportunities so that you can put your profits into places that give you more wealth and potentially more cash flow or even help you save on taxes. We have some pretty cool places where we put cash that give you sometimes all three. Plus you're in a room with people who are the best in the world at what they do. We bring in my team of advisors that help people get into retail. They help people clean up their systems, they help people clean up their books, they even help them reposition their companies so that they can be sold for more money. We also talk about what's working right now on Amazon and on other channels, but the focus of of the group is on casting the vision to get to eight figures and beyond and clearing all bottlenecks that stand in your way while also opening up other opportunities for you to enjoy a life of freedom. Because that's what we're after here. We're not just after this to work hard and work 16 hours a day. We're doing this so that we can have freedom and we get freedom by making enough money so that we can invest into places that, that allow us to never have to work again and then building empires with people that we love doing business with. And that's what we're doing inside of the back room. And I could also tell you that we're looking to buy and buy into some of our students businesses through something else that we're doing pretty cool in the back room. But I will save that for another day because that is still in process. But if you have an idea that you're not sure how to bring to the marketplace, if you've got an audience that you know could be the first ground for a really profitable seven figure physical products brand, or if you're selling enough product to be able to say, you know, I could step on the gas here if you've got that million in sight, or you're beyond the million and you know that it's time to accelerate the process to get to that eight figure mark. Because you're playing the review game, you're, you're playing price wars. You're tired of sacrificing profit margins, you're working way too long for too little result and you want to clear those bottlenecks so that you can grow faster and have a sellable company. So one day you can have that ideal freedom lifestyle. We can help you inside of the back room. It's one of the more expensive things that we do. It's also the highest ROI thing that we do. So it is application only. You need to be ready for it and you need to be ready to move when you join. So you can go to freedomfastlane.com, click on backroom and, and see the application, see all the pricing details from there. Working with me one on one starts at about $100,000. Joining the back room is a little bit less than that. So just know going into it that it's a serious investment and it is only for people who either have funding, have sales and are ready to go once they join. So if that's you, go over to freedomfastlane.com, click on the back room and you'll see the application and full details there.
