How To Turn Crisis Into Opportunity (Quarantine Special)

Its week three of quarantine and the most important thing I can be doing right now is to help you through this crisis. So if you're in the credit repair business, you're going to want to stick around because today I'm going to tell you how to turn this crisis into an opportunity.

So the big question is this. How can we take our passion for helping people with their credit and turn it into a successful business without taking loans, without spending a fortune by bootstrapping nothing so we can help the most people and still become highly profitable? That is the question and this podcast will give you the answer. My name is Daniel Rosen and welcome to Credit Repair Business Secrets.

We're now in week three of self quarantine, at least in most parts of the country. Many of us have had major shifts in how we do business, how we show up for business. Some of us who normally work in an office are still getting used to working at home. And for those of us who are used to working at home, there are now so many more distractions. Kids, family, the news, Netflix. And many of us are having a hard time keeping focus. There was one day last week where it finally got to me. I woke up and I thought, oh, I'll just sleep in a little more. And then a little while later I thought, oh, I'll just put on my robe and I'll shower and shave and comb my hair later after breakfast. And then after breakfast I thought, oh, I'll just watch the morning news before I get started on work. And before I knew it, the whole day had flown by and I was still in my bathrobe with my hair all crazy and my teeth all furry. And I was in a really bad mood because I had been watching the negative news and I was so angry at myself because all I got done that day was binge watching Tiger King. Nothing against Tiger King, but I really want to stay on track. So here's what I did today. I got up with the sun like it was a normal day. I jumped in the shower, brushed my teeth, shaved and fixed my hair just like it was a normal day. Then I got dressed just like it was a normal day. And then I wrote down my to do list just like it was a normal day. And then I sat at my desk instead of getting sucked into the TV like it was a normal day. And you know what happened? I got a shit ton of stuff done and my depression ended. Now look, when we turn on the news, we only see bad right now. So many people are sick and so many are dying. And yes, our hearts go out to them. And we need to do our part to flatten the curve and to slow down the spread. So we need to stay inside. We know all that. But at the same time, we must do constructive things to move our business forward because we have families to feed and bills to pay. So we need to better ourselves and better our businesses so we can come out the other side of this even stronger. So if you're getting distracted by all the bad news, here's how to regain your momentum. Sleep well, get a morning routine, plan your day, write down your to do list, mark the top three, and then check them off all day long because you've got a lot of work ahead of you. And here's why. The crisis we are in right now may be the biggest crisis we will ever face in our lifetimes. It's colossal. But the most important thing to remember about a crisis is while it does affect a lot of people, this is also a time of great opportunity. So what you can do during this crisis can either have an adverse effect on your business and your life, you can freeze and panic and do nothing, or you can use this time to create massive opportunity that lasts for decades. How do I know this? Because I've been through this before. During the last crisis, I almost lost my house. I almost went bankrupt. I was in collections with bank of America, they were trying to take my house. I almost lost everything. So the crisis back then, it pretty much landed on my head. And while I was dead broke, I also launched credit repair cloud. And the whole time I was building it, I knew it was the right thing to do. And what happened was amazing. During that crisis, people were losing their homes, their savings, the economy was crashing, and it was a really terrible time for everyone. But something amazing happened. People became more and more obsessed with their credit because their credit was getting ruined. There was such a need for credit repair that when I finally launched credit repair cloud, there was such a pressure and so much need, it was like getting shot from a slingshot. And that was also the start of the credit repair boom. And that put me in the right place at the right time. So here's what I want to tell you. It's happening again. It's happening right now. Here's why this is important to you. This is your chance to be in the right place at the right time and to have massive opportunity. This social distancing thing, it's not going to end anytime soon. Because even when things open up and return to normal, it's not going to return to normal. People are still going to be freaked out about being near other people for a very, very long time, long after this is over. And people are going to be afraid to go to offices. But throughout this whole crisis, I'm seeing really interesting things. For example, when you watch the news, you're seeing people in their homes, guests as well as some of the hosts. They are at home and it's suddenly very acceptable to work from home. And you know who's thriving the most right now? Home based businesses. Many of the traditional businesses, they are out of business right now. But the people with home based businesses, the ones who really their shit together, they're really crushing it. And you know why? Well, one of the reasons is that the mortgage business is having a boom. Their numbers are up right now and when their numbers are up, our numbers are up. This is the best time in history to have a home based business and it's absolutely the best time ever to be in the credit repair business. Because not only is the boom happening right now with this mortgage boom, but in addition, you're about to have a huge wave of business from all the people whose credit is being ruined right now. They are all going to be your clients. Very, very soon. At a time like this, your clients are going to love that you're working from home and that you can do this all remotely and that they don't have to come to see you. People used to hide that they worked at home. They were embarrassed about working from home. But now those days are over and I think that's awesome. The last crisis was a massive opportunity for me and it was a massive opportunity for the rest of the credit repair industry. And this opportunity will be even bigger. If you want to take advantage of this opportunity, here's what you need to do. If you are just learning credit repair, good. That's awesome. Learn the basics. Get really good at it. Practice with as many clients as you can. Free or paid, it doesn't matter. Learn your craft. Your number one goal should be to learn how disputes work and to get your processes down. And I'm talking about basic dispute training and using the software. You need to learn this inside out and backwards. So if you're just at this starting level and you haven't done our credit Hero challenge, I highly recommend it because it will help you to get your first clients and it will help you to get your processes down. It's the best training we've ever created. It costs very little and you can sign up for it right now@creditherochallenge.com now, if you've already got your processes down, maybe you're not sure how to get clients. So I'll tell you an interesting thing. So many people in our community, they complain that they can't get clients, but then when I look on their Facebook page, there is nothing there about credit. How are you going to get clients if you're hiding? This is the time to start telling the world that you do credit repair. Do it on Facebook, do it on Instagram, let everyone in the world know that you are the person who knows everything about credit. And then set your personal page up to drive people to your site or to free resources or to book a call with you so you can start to capture them as leads. But if you're going to start focusing on getting leads and traffic, you don't want that traffic to go to waste. So if you already know your basics and you know how to get some leads next, you want to start setting up automations. Now what does that mean exactly? Well, I'll put it this way. Someone visits your site, they may not be ready to sign up right now, but if you have a way to capture their information, like their email address, maybe in return for an ebook or a free consultation, then you can start them on a email sequence which is a drip campaign, and you do that to nurture that lead. So here's the important thing about drip campaigns, okay? And these are series of emails that you send a person. These are not ads, okay? You're not sending ads over and over again because that will turn people off. Instead, every few days they're getting tips from you about things that they can do to improve their credit. And you know what? They'll appreciate it because you are giving value, but they're too lazy to actually do it. And so one of those emails is going to hit them on the very day that they are finally ready to sign up. Now there are a zillion other automations, but that's one of the ones you're going to want to set up first because it really, really works. It's one you see me do all the time. If you've signed up for anything from us, a free book or a guide or one of our courses, or even a free trial of credit repair cloud. You're going to start getting all these emails from me and they give you great information and they're fun to read. But you know what it's like for me, it's like having thousands of fishing lines all reeling in. See what I mean? This is why? People set up automations because they really, really work. And then you gradually start to have so many clients that you need a team. And this is how you start to scale a business. Now you don't have to do all this at once. If you're short on funds or short on time, you can start by learning just one and then taking the time to build it. Or if you've got little time but you have the money, hire someone like Derek Harper with his automate My Flow. He's got all these ready made automations that you just plug into your business and you plug into credit repair cloud and then you got the automations going. What I'm saying is use this time to your advantage. Come out of this crisis stronger and ready for the credit repair boom because it's happening now. You also might take a class in marketing or spend an hour reading a book about business. Do something productive every day. Use this time to move your business forward any way you can. We are going to get through this strange time. It will get back to normal, but it's going to take a while. So the best thing you can do right now is focus on keeping your routine and that's going to keep you sane, it will keep you productive and it's going to ensure that you get to the end of this crisis with a much stronger business. All the people who have made over a million dollars in credit repair cloud, they have all done this work. They all learn their processes, they've all built a team, they've all built automations and they are all thriving even during this pandemic crisis. Remember, this business works if you work. I hope this is helping, I hope this is motivating. Keep taking care of yourself and each other and keep washing your hands and stay in.
