SUCCESS... Is it $7 or $5,000?

12/28/2023

What's the secret to success? How will you stand up and stand out from the noise and competition? How will you Make Your Message Matter in 2024?

There are So. Many. Options. In just the past few days I've seen the "answers to my visibility prayers" as low at $7 and as high as $5,000. 


That bugs me.
​

And what bugs me more are the promises of the keyboard warriors who claim they are in this extraordinary 'club' of successful women, making 6- and 7-figure incomes, who seemingly snap their fingers and money lands in their lap. 
How many times have you seen six and seven-figure promises like these?
  • How would it feel to make $10,000 in unexpected revenue this month?
  • Do more with less! Get your dream five-figures-a-month clients with these simple tricks - just $7!
  • How I went from broke to billionaire with a $5,000 investment.

You download their freebie, end up in a sales funnel and then have to go back and unsubscribe after receiving a half-dozen emails regurgitating the same promise.

​Speaking of downloads: I'll admit it. I'm a download junkie.

If I see a free eBook on "How to...", or "Top X Ways to..." I'll grab it. It's sort of become a game. I download the free item, then kick myself because I knew the moment I started typing my email address – I was going to be disappointed. There was a promise of "Instant Success Guaranteed" or a "Secret Formula" that would be nothing more than a 12-page document (Which could’ve been 3 pages but the creator s-t-r-e-t-c-h-e-d everything to make it appear bigger than it is.) that gave little insight and a lot of crap.
 
I’ve fallen for the false sense of urgency and fear tactics. Genuine mentors and coaches respect the decision-making process, providing information and support without pressuring individuals to act hastily. Be cautious of anyone who insists that immediate action is the only path to success. Sure, you can have a limited-time offer – but telling a solopreneur who is desperate to be successful that it’s NOW OR NEVERRRRRR isn’t the way to go.

​Guaranteeing instant success is a bold claim. Those claiming their $7 download will turn any struggling solopreneur into a six or seven-figure success overnight is again, crap. Building a sustainable business takes time, effort, and a well-thought-out strategy.

$7 or $2. Nice post and thoughts to ponder. It is tough without investment because the solopreneur is stretched doing tasks with no matching education.
In the long haul, the minor expenses of starting the business can add up with no income to offset.

Expenses DO add up - and quickly! I'm trying to shed light on the "experienced and successful" folks preying on the new or the struggling solopreneurs. I've seen it too much, sadly.
