I could've just commented but this is worth a post imo. I came across this story that blew my mind and immediately thought of what Travis is teaching here. So some guy in Arizona. No money. No inventory. Just a smartphone and a TikTok account. He's walking down Main Street one day - you know the kind, where mom and pop shops used to see foot traffic every afternoon. But nobody walks anymore. Everyone's on Amazon. These shop owners - older folks who've been running their stores for decades - they're sitting on inventory that won't move. They don't have TikTok. They're not on social media. Product just sits there generating nothing. Most people would see two separate problems, right? But this guy puts on his investor goggles. He walks into a shop and says something clearly different: "I'll set up a TikTok Shop right here in your store. Give me access to your inventory. I'll go live and sell it. You keep 50% of every sale. I handle everything." The shop owner had nothing to lose. Zero cannibalization of existing sales (there weren't any). Zero upfront cost. Zero risk to reputation. The owner said yes. Here's what happened: The guy started moving inventory that had been sitting dead. He repeated this at shop after shop across Main Street. That year, he made $750,000 part-time. The shop owners got revenue from inventory generating $0. Customers got 20% off retail. Three winners. Zero capital required. This seems like exactly what Travis means by "investor training wheels". The guy didn't speculate (buy inventory and hope it sells). He didn't gamble (throw money at ads and pray). He CREATED MARGIN from nothing by asking the core investor question: "How do I add $100 of value for $1 (or less)?" His answer: Use my existing skill (TikTok) to transform their "trash can" asset (dead inventory) into a digital vending machine. Every single time: Find what's generating $0, relocate it to where buyers are, split the new money. This is why the "training wheels" concept clicked for me.

I started learning to invest dead ass broke and with ZERO bucks. It doesn’t require money to step into the investor stance. Most peeps are not investors at all. They are speculators at best, gamblers at the worst. Why? Because they never learned to invest WITHOUT money. Becoming just an “okay” investor will put you ahead of 99.9% of the population. Once you learn to invest WITHOUT money… You will be DEADLY with a few bucks. Over 50 of you said let’s test this Skool live thingy! It’s happening. Do you want me to do our first Skool live on: Million Dollar Investor Training Wheels? “Yay” “Nay” “Another suggestion” 👇 If I don’t get enough “yay”… We’ll pick another topic. Rooting for Ya, Travis

Again thanks @Travis Sago for the opportunity. This is my second time creating this intro the first sucked and I didnt get to say what I wanted to say and ask. Ronin newbie here. Glad to be here AGAIN 😀When I left Ronin the first time the idea of the partner stuff stuck with me even though a lot of the other stuff was confusing but I understand it a lot more now. Below are some things I would like anyones advice or help with please. 1- I already see what I want to do based on everything I know from the FIRE group and from the outside looking in after my Ronin free trial had ended. What I want to focus on is Auction Partners. With that said, what training should I start with? Right now I only have the Pop-Up Auction training. What else should go along with that, such as a supplemental training or a “need-to-know” type of training? Or is it only that training? 2- I do have a person with a 7k email list, mostly built from Substack and LinkedIn. I’m trying to get her to bring all those people over to Skool, start running auctions, and monetize in other ways. She also needs to improve her relationship with them to boost engagement. She has a low-ticket offer that I helped her sell. She sold three of them at $500 each using Mitch Miller’s (the copywriter in Thailand) sales page template, which I then pieced together with AI. She also has a high-ticket offer that ranges from $5k to $17k. Her niche and offers are centered on helping people get to the root of what is sabotaging their results, success, and life without relying on surface-level approaches like journaling or therapy. The low-ticket product is a self-paced, DIY-style program, while the high-ticket offer is delivered with a certified doctor. Any input on this would be greatly appreciated. I should also add that I ran a test to see if her audience would respond to a different, money-driven offer. Basically, I asked if they would be interested in learning how to increase their profits by 25%, like one of her other clients did. That test only generated about 1 response. The open rate was decent, but I cannot remember the exact number. The results overall were poor.

Hey peeps, New here 👋I'm a copywriter who mostly writes for female audiences. I’m currently connecting with creators and experts in fitness or fitness-adjacent spaces (think: menopause coaches, post-partum specialists, low-impact trainers, pelvic floor pros, etc.) — especially those who already have an email list or engaged community. The idea is to explore smart distribution / cross-promotion with other vetted creators — so we can reach more of the right women without reinventing the wheel. If that’s you (or you know someone), let’s connect! Drop a comment or DM me. This is fairly preliminary but please drop a comment below if you fit this somewhat loose criteria. Ok, thanks all!

Finally, landed partners I'm 100% confident have everything in place to run a winning auction! Partner 1: Sales coach with a crazy strong personal brand AND a paid Skool of 148 members. Thinking for this one there's more juice running an auction on his personal FB profile first. Partner 2: 90,000 person group in the FB ads niche in the Latin American market, with lots of activity and ZERO monetization. I would be surprised if we don't get at least 100 sales here.
