Imagine what WE can do with just a few digital assets, some commitment, and creativity. Listen... Richard Branson wanted to start Virgin Atlantic. You know what you need for that? A Boeing 747. And a couple hundred million dollars. Branson had none of it. So here's what he did... Called directory assistance. Got Boeing's number. Rang 'em up. "Hey, you got any 747s sitting around doing nothing? Can I lease one?" They hung up on him. He kept calling. Eventually the switchboard lady got so annoyed she transferred him to sales just to "get rid of him properly." Sales guy says: "Listen Mr. Branson, we have ONE customer in the UK. That's British Airways. You're not them. Goodbye." Branson says: "I know, I know... but humor me. You got an old plane just sitting there?" "Well... yeah, actually we do." "And if British Air wanted it, what would you lease it for?" "About $200-300K a month." Now here's where it gets interesting... Branson structured the whole thing backwards. Customers pay for tickets MONTHS before the flight. Fuel gets paid 30 days AFTER the plane lands. Lease payments in arrears. Negative working capital. He launched Virgin Atlantic with ZERO equity. Zero. If you can start an airline with no money, you can structure ANY partnership deal with creative thinking. You don't need capital. You need a partner with an underused asset and the creativity to structure terms that work for both of you. The question ain't "what do I need to build first?" It's "who's got something sitting idle that we could turn into shared revenue?..." The good news is? @Travis Sago has given us all the tools we need to do deals that spit out five and six figures. And you've got leadership in here to help ya steer the ship when it's going off course in the storm. So my question is this... What unused asset could you turn into a deal this week? Because we're not launching airlines here... This is WAY easier. In your corner,

It took me 30+ years... To realize I was only ONE breakthrough away from my next income leap... Not 6... Not fifty-eleven steps... ONE!

When running Auctions it can be FAST and furious the lessons come JUST as fast... What's up Ronin peeps! Wrapped up my first Auction yesterday... Technically I ran one prior to this by they didn't get past the pre PRE Auction test. I killed it when I didn't get enough interest. But we started seeding this new auctions Skool pop-up group on Dec 18th. Ran roughly 7 pre-sell posts. Ended up with 550 peeps in the group (and it's still growing). Even with Christmas prior to the auction we did alright. Next time I'd really NOT like there to be a major holiday right before running it lol. We ran the auction for 3 hours yesterday and called it at the 3rd hour. We had 4 bidders battling it out and they all went over $30k. Winning bid was $35,510. We gave the winner a few extra 1on1 calls... Enrolling the other 3 as we speak. When you're dealing with large amounts like this peeps gotta move money around. Credit card limits come into play etc... So right now we've got $5k, $7k, and $10k deposits with the balance on two of them coming in by Friday. One guy needed to split his winning bid of $35,001 into two payments. He got me $10k yesterday and $7500 is coming in Friday. His 2nd payment is due Feb 1st. The last guy we're still working with to get enrolled. Right now I'm tapping bidders. Which leads me to the lessons part of this post. ✅ One thing I'm not thrilled with is we had 115 bidders out of 550. I'm still not 100% sure what that's about? Maybe the holidays, maybe people just didn't get notified enough about the time. Not sure. But I did send the Bidding Post out as an email about 30 seconds prior to bidding through Skool to ensure everyone got notified the auction was going down . ✅ Something else I learned the hard way... When telling people there was a $250 max bid PER BID... ...people STILL got confused and even started commenting during the auction in the comments about the bidding going OVER $250 lol. As if the MAX BID was $250 TOTAL for the Auction Prize.

In like 36 hours! Right before Christmas! It was a mad scramble toward the end as those $1 bids came flying in! BUT... My focus for 2026 and beyond... No Asset Left Behind! ANd that means no auction shits the bed. The only bed shitting is letting assets go unnoticed. LOTS of learning assets were discovered in this auction. I learned more from that auction than any others. One...I probably suck at auctions. And offers. And tapping. Still had fun though. And there were some little things along the way that I tested that got good data. One thing I realized about my tiny group of 134 members... It's not my audience. Most came from other people promoting the group and inviting people in. Then all of a sudden this weirdo (me) is running an email/post campaign to them? Like we're old friends? Getouttahere!!!! So there's that. Also it was the first time I ran an auction for my own offer. But I did create some killer assets that can be used over and over. So hopefully I'll crack the $500 ceiling next time and join the ranks of the auction heroes like @Tony Teegarden!!! But I'm still super excited to hang with the auction winner and one person who took the follow up offer. And I still think auctions and contests are a blast and have a few more planned soon. I'll take your questions now...
