Congrats to Josh certainly. I look forward to our time together. May I extend a warm and sincere word of gratitude to those who participated at any level from $1 or more. Your seeing the value I could potentially bring to your life and business is a meaningful endorsement in this age. My goal in the long run is to serve you in a capacity that provokes your prosperity in career, family and in faith. We are all stewards of a set of gifts and many underestimate what they can do. This Friday I'll be enjoying a meal with a young man that entered my life 10 years ago. We are celebrating the sale of his company, the forming of his marriage and becoming a father all in this decade. This is the kind of connection that gratifies me as a man advancing in years and finding his way as useful. Most look at success and knowledge as an incline, steady over time hopefully growing upwards. It is not. It is a parabolic curve like compound interest. You will find your wisdom and successful experience triples every decade from 30 to 40 to 50 to 60 and hopefully for me beyond. This is not a claim of 'smarts" or superiority. It is a claim of synthesis. I now understand the obstacles of my earlier decades crystal clear and if i had the insight now that I wished I had then, I would have gone further faster. Yet that is part of God made me the way he did. He needed a good teacher here, not another isolated billionaire and I guarantee you if my dreams had come true in that financial space, I would not have been able to go as wide in my studies and would be less useful to you. I would have surely dove into a world of absolute anonymity and private pleasures. That was not the path He had for me. Most people that I eventually work with note a certain fear of my personality or a fear of the expense. I run these auctions to demonstrate I am accessible for a person taking themselves seriously and understanding they need clarity and direction. I am also pliable on costs based on your willingness to bend your heart to the destiny available to you.

One of you is about to win a full day with me. Here's what you're bidding on. You come out to the ranch in the Texas hill country. Steaks on the fire, whiskey in the glass, antelope grazing past the fence while we work. And we work. Most businesses spend all day pleading their own case to their customers. Calling the wrong witnesses. Listing features nobody asked about. Losing a jury that walked in wanting to say yes. I put on my customer goggles and build the case that makes them convict themselves into buying. And when a jury convicts? Nobody has to be sold. They buy. They buy more. They drag their friends in behind them. The business starts running whether you show up or not. That's how you add a zero. Not up for the flight? We do the whole thing over Zoom. Same brain, no boots. I've done this 300+ times. Tucker Max put it better than I can: "If Ron realizes how insanely valuable this is, he'll be too expensive for anyone except the richest and most powerful people on earth." Good thing he doesn't know what happens next. HERE'S WHAT THE WINNER GETS: 👉 The full day with me — ranch or Zoom — where I find and build the case hiding in your business. 👉 A seat in the next Marketing Mercenaries — the private course only 99 people had ever seen, the one that opens with a note called "The Opposite of a Suicide Note." Already done it? Gift the seat to someone who's earned it. Let me put this in perspective. I charge $5,000 for a single day. This opens at one dollar. THE RULES: Bidding is open NOW. $1 minimum. No reserve. Highest bidder wins. It ends when I decide we've tapped out — and you'll get a 60-minute heads-up before I close it. Don't try to snipe it. BIDDER BONUS: every single person who bids gets something. It's a secret for now… but your bid will pay off. 🔥 BONUS AREA — WATCH THIS SPACE 🔥 Trust Me- You want me sleeping on my pillow with your problems for a change. Here's your chance: UNLOCKS AT $5,000 — The Night Before at the Ranch Once the bidding hits $5,000, the winner also gets the evening before the ranch day: cigars, whiskey, and steak on the porch with me while the sun drops over the hill country. No agenda — just your business and a fire. Some of my best thinking for a client happens right there, before the real day even starts.
