hey friends welcome back and I am going
to actually dive into some case studies
surprisingly right video - these aren't
going to be detailed that's for the
advanced training but I do want to dive
into one especially that was more recent
and I'm going to start off asking you
about what is money asking you about
what money how do you think about money
as money papers money electronic funds
sent you know going back in time you
know if we lived in an earlier society
we might say look for all this produce
for a few weeks I'll give you a goat in
a trading that kind of thing and so you
know I took that and decided to start
doing that with this with some of these
strategies because I was so nervous
about selling I I was really shy
couldn't really talk to people about it
I was really nervous about asking for
you know large sums of money for a
website I kind of thing and so if
anybody is nervous about selling this is
this might help you it may not be for
everyone but most people that I know can
can pull this off and even my friend who
is going to be in later modules who has
a million dollar business she even does
this and it's trading so let me explain
a few different case studies I'll start
with the first one alright so well first
let me talk about why this is a good
idea okay think about it if you need
something done alright I'll set up the
case study like this I needed a water
line on my house okay it's I live in the
country sort of and the water line is
extremely long that was a leak
apparently then of being multiple leaks
but to get it fixed it's going to cost
several thousand dollars and I you know
my water bill just kept creeping up
going up to going up and I could not get
a plumber out there to look at it and so
I started talking to plumbers like it
one showed up at my mother-in-law's
and I said look I build websites and I
know I knew that he had a billboard up
and he's like I want a website and so he
started talking I you know sometimes I
trade with people you know so instead of
them spending in three four thousand
dollars on a website I'll just build it
for them and I'll just do you know
whatever I need and he was really
interested in that and sometimes this
happens it didn't really work out as far
as trying to chase the guy down some
people are like that but I ran into
another one and this guy was sharp and
he said yeah I want a website and I'm
thinking about getting one and I said
well I charge three thousand dollars
yada yada yada but I need a water line
and he was a commercial contractor and I
said but I need a water line so if you
want to come check it out and if it's
worth it I would be willing to trade and
so he came and he checked it out and he
said yeah it'd be about $3,000 to lay
this water line and I said well I'm
willing to trade a website or if you
just want to charge me the money and
then you can pay me for the website and
I said no we'll just trade and so I'm
only talking about this really inside
this course because this is tax free
money I mean think about it
neither one of us paid taxes that's the
truest form of money really that you can
have
he came two days later laid this water
line professionally it's like this new
fancy kind that can detect leaks along
the line and he found another leak a
further down so he fixed that I mean
just so cool it's taken care of
and then the guy works for me in
Philippines great great people I hire
them they work part-time twenty hours a
week and I pay him over times they work
more he built the site for me and that
was it I'm going to show it to you right
now okay it's just this just happened
not too long ago this is it Delta boring
calm so I've bought this domain and I
told him hey go and sell WordPress on it
the guy the owner the cup
sent me the logo and I just put a
contact form on there in his email
address and that was it and they still
have to get back to me to put more info
on it that's it he just wanted somebody
that they searched for his business name
they wanted them to you know people to
be able to find his website and it was
pretty simple and the only other thing I
did was I searched for it on google and
his company name came up and it had a
little link that said add website and I
added it and it was Delta boring calm so
it except it was and I'm pretty
straightforward
think about that now if I didn't need a
water line I would have charged him
$3,000 and I would have made $3,000 I
mean that's awesome too but it just so
happens I needed water line so you know
either way is cool with me and I share
that because I'm still doing it but when
I started out in 2008 I wanted to get
clients but I didn't really have the
courage to go around and try to sell
myself and I didn't really have the
strategies to attract buyers that I have
now and that are in this course and so I
really had to work with with with what I
knew which was the people that I was
buying services from and I needed and
and I had health challenges okay I was
considered disabled so I needed a way
because I was in debt I needed a way to
get medical care I needed massage
therapy a chiropractor you know I had to
have dental care you know I want to see
a doctor all this stuff and end up
trading with every single one of them
okay it was awesome
so if you and we're talking about a
couple thousand dollars worth over
months taken care of you know and all I
had to do was build a website for them
and host it that's what I did okay
Hosting didn't cost me much of anything
and I get into that into this court
let me give you the first one first one
was a massage therapy website I went in
there I told them hey I need a massage
every week um you know do you want more
customers you know yeah of course yeah
well I can build a website for you
you won't have them their website was
terrible it was like one page built with
some crappy thing so they said yeah
let's trade I got a year of massage
massages which was worth around $400 a
month and then the next year after
transitioning them to two massages a
month with two two hundred and seventy
dollars so these were paying me in half
and then they're paying me 270 and I was
getting two free massages a month and
then the next year I transitioned them
to just money and then a couple years
later after then paying me a monthly fee
basically renting a domain for me
I sold the site to a new buyer because
that business dissolved I sold the site
to a new buyer for $5,000 and now that
new buyer is it's been over a year and
they're coming back to me saying hey can
I buy SEO from you and that kinda thing
so this can really lead to passive
income so don't overlook trading trading
is money and if you're nervous about
selling and all internet marketing all
of it is selling okay don't let anybody
tell you that oh you can sit by the
computer screen and just teaching
teaching teaching you know that's there
me may be able to do that a little bit
but at some point somebody is selling in
somebody's buying so that's a
transaction and there's a customer and
there's a you know a service or product
provider that kind of thing so think
about it trading it's a good idea I
highly recommend it
see you in the next video
