This one took THREE WHOLE DAYS! 😆 I'm behind schedule, but I will DM folks who showed interest in what I'm up to in this poll, ASAP Rooting For Ya, Travis PS Instead of persuasiveness and insisting on time on a calendar, the Giving FUNnel is something anyone can do to get coffee dates and deals on demand. Everyone can give 3 or 4 things away. Those things don't even need to be theirs!

HUGE THANK YOU to @Nick Roberts and @Marcus Karl for this candid interview. They did NOT sugar coat or gloss over the Bad or the Ugly of this auction. Spoiler alert: Everyone still had fun and $174,000 in sales with $50,000 cash collected. There are HUNDREDS if not THOUSANDS of creators and influencers with 5,000 or less followers on their FB profiles, Insta, YT channels, Email lists, X, Pinterest that could... Use the same EXACT method that Nick and Marcus did. And it doesn't have to be perfect. Why? Because the auction format is SO FORGIVING! Let's make this a LEARNING thread and ASK any questions you may have! Rooting For Ya, Travis PS I double-dawg dare ya to watch this and NOT lose sleep tonight! The WORLD is OURS! At the end... I gave them a tip to bring in another $100k. In ONE WORD. Then I showed them how to cash flow this for $1 million. PPS If you got anything out of this interview and breakdown, please drop some appreciation for Markus and Nick. They really gave this their all and went into detail!

Just ran an auction inside a trading discord community of about 300 members. I'm still in the dm's with some people but it looks like maybe I can tap one more sale in... Partner is happy since he hired closers -- booked 30 sales calls and couldn't close a single one. Then I run the auction and they almost can't believe how easy that was to get two peeps asking to give us their money lol. However there's some lessons learned so I can flip the coin again for the next auction Here's how it went down: I ran a pre auction poll that got a solid engagement about 40 people engaged that they'd bid at least $1. One person in the comments (the one who won the auction) Said he's ready to get it started now and placed a bid lol. So that was validation that we should run the auction. The plan was to run the auction the entire trading day. So from market open to market close. I think that was a mistake since not a lot of people were in the comments bidding until the very end which was like a span of 8 hours. Then people at the end were trying to beat each other but the bids hadn't even gotten that high... We had a total of about 20 bidders. The highest bid was $2504 We had 5 bids ofer $500 One sale tapped into a group coaching for $2500. In hindsight I think I should have not said when it was going to end. This would have probably made the biggest difference since there were still people trying to bid at the end. And given the offer so much more social proof and the sales easier on the backend. If you guys have any questions for clarity on anything specific or feedback that'd be amazing. Here's the offer for the auction: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1PtWofTunMb6RxKbJpSJkyt73910ngqvAxt-dSnoovmA/edit?usp=sharing Appreciate yall!

As in...SHIT. THE. BED! Ok, it didn't have the outcome I wanted, but I got great data from it. Here's how I set it up... I reached out to a handful of cool offer owners. "Are you doing a black friday promo this year?" "Hmmm...not sure. I probably should, right? Whatcha have in mind?" That was pretty much the same response from each message. Super simple. Got 5 on board out of like 7 I reached out to. I setup a Skool group. Ran a Last Comment Wins contest to fill the group. Most of the new members came from two of the partners. 1300+ comments in a little over 24 hours...300 in the last 5 minutes. Originally I was going to pull people in for an auction with a bundle of offers from the partners I reached out to. Figured I'd make it more fun to fill the group. Decided to do the auction with just one of the offers in the bundle. Wrote up some copy to pre-sell the auction. It didn't get a lot of response in my group, but did well when the partner posted it. I did a shit ton of masculine mojo and messaged everyone who commented to get them into the group. Out of like 50 people who commented on the partner's post, I got 25 into the skool group for the auction (AFTER the last comment contest...got 53 in for that one). Post went out on Tuesday. Auction started Thursday and ran for 24-hours. High bid: $750 (includes 1-1 call with partner) Not a lot of bidders to follow up with...around 12. Sent three follow up options. Only one took the lowest option. $1397 total collected. Partner sold his self-paced offer in the past for $997 (NO 1-1 calls). I'll likely just send him the entire amount. Here's the data collected... 𝐍𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑 𝐫𝐮𝐧 𝐚 𝟐𝟒-𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐚𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐨𝐧 𝐓𝐡𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐝𝐚𝐲! The auction ended on Friday at noon. I had a call at 1:00. Started the follow up around 2:00pm. In their minds...people are already "out the door" for the weekend. And here's where I totally STB...I completely forgot I'd be offline all day Saturday and part of Sunday and wouldn't be able to follow up.

If this don't beat all!
