It’s an ancient law: “you reap what you sow”. And while many people often use it in the negative sense, saying that if you do bad things you will get bad things, I believe it can be a really constructive lesson in the positive sense. Today’s message is about creating and giving out tons of value and then enjoying the wealth that comes from it. It is an irrefutable law that just plain works! Watch today’s video here:   Every time I have given lots of value, I have enjoyed great rewards, and yes, even wealth. Wealth is a simple equation… You give a lot (out to the world) and you will receive a lot. It’s simple, but we are often blinded by our wants / needs to try and “get” what we want. It’s all about giving out and giving out a lot and giving out intelligently, of course, so that you have a plan and a way to turn that giving into seeds that grow and develop massive fruit. This is the way to receive the reward.

Today, we talk about something that is so important because it might be something you are doing subconsciously but don’t recognize it and it’s costing you time, income and positivity. We often make this critical error without thinking about it, but it is still a critical error. Watch today’s video here:   When you start complaining about things you have no control over, there are several things that are going against you. First, you are complaining, and that is a negative emotion that affects your positive mindset. Secondly, you are focusing on something that you have no power over and this affects your ability to take action. Third, you are using up your valuable time, which can have a potentially exponentially negative effect on your results and income. So… DON’T COMPLAIN! And especially… DON’T COMPLAIN ABOUT THINGS YOU CANNOT CONTROL! And… GET BACK TO WORK! I wrote this the other day and I believe it holds true for this topic: “If what you’re doing RIGHT NOW is not contributing to your income, health or relationships, set it aside and do something that will. Rinse and repeat every 20 minutes and you will see massive success in those areas, over time.”

Many people just fall into starting a business (especially online) to make money. Often, people do not stop to think about how well it fits their personality. Especially in this day and age, when legitimate online opportunities are more prevalent, it is important to carefully match your personality to the opportunity.

Persuasion is the key to selling anything online. Copywriting is the art and science of persuading “in print” or in a video script or in an ad of any type. If you run an online business (of any kind) it is critical that you have quality copywriting to help sell your products – even if you have to hire a copywriter to do it for you. If you do decide to hire a copywriter, at least understand the basics of copywriting so that you can recognize good copywriting when you see it. Watch today’s video here:   Preview my copywriting course for free: https://daveespino.com/Copywriting But my recommendation is to learn copywriting because most of what you do online (Facebook ads, Google ads, website copy, video scripts, eBay and Amazon listings, etc.) requires good copywriting!

There is an interesting dichotomy when it comes to having business success. We must be grounded in reality when it comes to the day to day actions we must take to make our business work, but we must also keep an eye on the dreams and goals – the big picture, in order to keep our hope alive and vibrant. Watch today’s video here:   If we stay in the day to day reality, we may lost hope and if we stay in the dream world, we might not get enough done. So, a healthy balance is critical to being successful in our home business.

Creating a great life, like doing anything of lasting value, takes time. Don’t fall for the “get rich quick” false promises – it’s a losing game. Learn how to build persistence, take massive action and keep your mind focused on your goals and dreams. Watch today’s Daily Hustle video here: Develop the persistence, action and mindset for success and you will achieve your goals!

How bad do you want it? Having a successful business requires mental toughness and tenacity. You have to want it badly enough to do what it takes to win – win for yourself, win for your family and win for your dreams. Focusing on your goals and dreams allows you to keep going, even when obstacles and distractions come your way. Watch today’s video here:   Ultimately, this question – how bad do you want it – has to define whether you will make it in your own business. If you want it badly enough, you will do what it takes, (legally, ethically, morally) to make it in your business. If you don’t, it’s probably a better idea to stick with the traditional job world.

Today, top online instructor Phil Ebiner and I did a LIVE “Passive Income Show” where we discussed the latest news and info about the online teaching world. Both Phil and I earn full-time passive incomes from our online course business and this 90-minute LIVE show was our first show since January. Watch today’s Passive Income Show video here:   We talk about what we are doing currently in our online teaching business, we discuss various online teaching platforms and we speak about the current state of the online teaching world.

In today’s Daily Hustle video, I give you some storage auction tips and tell you about the time when I auditioned for Storage Wars Los Angeles. Having done storage auctions for 11 years, (and never losing money on a unit) this video contains specific advice for making money with storage auctions. You’ll learn a little bit of inside information about A & E’s plans for rolling out multiple Storage Wars shows, (which didn’t end up happening) and you’ll learn why I don’t think I would’ve made it on that show. (it’s all about personality!) Watch today’s video here:     Check out my Storage Auctions course (just $10) here: https://daveespino.com/YT-StorageAuctionSecrets10 You can learn a lot from the TV version, (Storage Wars) but you can learn even more from someone who has seen hundreds of units go up for auction and bought and sold lots of storage units in real life.

There are many ways to make money with online courses and it may shock you to see that 5 of these ways do NOT require that you be an expert! In this video we talk about all 5 of those ways plus the traditional way where you create a course about something you know. Watch today’s video here:   Check out the course here: https://daveespino.com/PLR-Delivery Learn how to create online courses here: https://daveespino.com/YT-Create-Courses I hope this video opens some eyes as to a variety of ways to profit and build passive income from the online course mega-trend. Having your own online course portfolio can be an awesome way to build an ongoing, passive income and now, there are few excuses to not do so!  

One of the greatest things I ever learned was this core concept – become a student of your business. No matter which business you are in, you will fast-forward your results by learning everything you can learn from those who have already succeeded before you. Modeling the winners in any business is one of the fastest ways to success. Watch today’s video here:   In fact, at some point, you can get so good at modeling the winners that you can begin to invent your own hybrid strategies that advance your business far more than the “winners” in your industry! But, don’t ever make the mistake of believing that you’ve arrived. Staying humble and hungry is another core concept of business that you’ll want to practice, right along with this one. Becoming a student of the business you are in ensures that you are always growing and learning and that you are always “sharp” and are on the cutting edge of your business knowledge. It will reduce costly errors and will give you the confidence you need to take your business further than anyone else!

In this video, I give you several reasons why you should keep things simple in your home based business. Watch today’s video here: Simplicity has many benefits, one of which is – with less “moving parts”, there is less that could go wrong along the way to your goals. Simplicity also allows you to have less stress because, again, there are less things to think about and worry about. Simplicity also improves speed of implementation and speed to market, two essentials of business success. So, aim to keep things simple, not just because it sounds good, but because it makes good business sense.

In this video, we talk about the BIG KEY to marketing anything online. This is your starting point, this is where you begin in ANY business.     Finding the hot market, the starving market is where we need to start. By doing this, your odds of massive success increase exponentially.

One of the biggest blocks we can have in business is when we don’t know how to do something. Often, things can easily be learned through a simple Google or YouTube search, but sometimes there are other things that actually require more experience and / or time invested in a learning curve. I go by a simple motto: If I can’t do it, I can learn it, and if I can’t learn it (within a reasonable amount of time) then I can pay someone (or partner with someone) else to do it”. Watch today’s video here:     Living by this standard helps me move forward fast in my business because it destroys the limiting belief that “I can’t do it”. There are many solutions to most problems and being able to see those solutions when most people can’t is a part of being a successful entrepreneur!

If you run any kind of online business, group, community or anything else online, you are going to run into these people. They love to bitch, gripe, complain, cause trouble, troll, are negative and or time wasters. Watch today’s video here:     Watch a FREE PREVIEW of my “How To Be Hyper-Productive When Working From Home” course here: https://daveespino.com/ProductivityYT Along with how the internet gives us the power to reach potentially millions of people online, comes the possibility of dealing with haters, troublemakers, time wasters, trolls and just plain negative people. These people exert a cost from you, sometimes in time and more often in affecting your attitude and possibly the attitude of those you associate with and therefore must be dealt with immediately. In this (longer) video, I talk about my experiences in dealing with all types of negative, trolling, aggressive people online over the years and how I would recommend handing them. See, it’s NOT just about how to deal with them, but it is also about how to deal with them so that they don’t affect your attitude or the attitude of those in your audience, wherever that may be. When it comes to dealing with …

In today’s Daily Hustle I share my key takeaways from Traffic & Conversion Summit 2017. Watch today’s video here:   Key Takeaway #1 – Digital Marketing is “growing up”.

Wow! This session by Pat Flynn (of Smart Passive Income) knocked my socks off and it was great to meet him and have him as a guest on this video, too!

In one of Pat Flynn’s workshop sessions, he talked about a great way to combine Kindle books with a “companion course” so as to be able to build an email list and give the customer much more value all at the same time.

Since I’m an online instructor (with 42 courses online) and have already started to turn my courses into Kindle / CreateSpace books, this was the PERFECT strategy that fit with my business.Watch today’s video here:

 

 

The Daily Hustle is reporting from Traffic & Conversion Summit, in San Diego, CA.

In this video, I share my gratitude for the USA, the American Free Enterprise system and the constitutional form of government that we enjoy here.

Watch today’s video here:

 

 

Gratitude can often be a great motivator in your business and it is important to always look for the things you are grateful for.

Working and living from gratitude kills negativity and negative emotions and actions, so I propose that we all work to be more grateful for the many awesome things we have.

I’ll be doing my daily videos from “Traffic & Conversion Summit” in San Diego this weekend!

One of my favorite mentors, Jim Rohn said: “Formal education will make you a living, but self education will make you a fortune.”

Not only can I attest to that and say that I am a big fan of self-education, but I also wanted to say that I am praticing what I preach!

So I’m out here “sharpening the saw” so that my work is better, quicker and more efficient, as well as more profitable…

Here’s a new way to look at passive income and how important it is for YOU to develop passive income streams.

The average person takes a working lifetime (30 – 40 years) to accumulate a retirement fund that is sufficient enough to “live off the interest” comfortably.

Watch today’s video here:

 

 

However, are many possible factors that can negatively affect or even destroy your retirement fund:

• Financial crash
• Recession
• Loss of job
• Unexpected health emeergency
• Etc.

So, even if you are able to work for 40 years at a “9 to 5” and accumulate the necessary money, these things can still come in and kill your retirement fund.

In this video, I talk about the importance of passive income business models and how you can build these models to achieve “retirement” in a matter of a few years, as opposed to 30 – 40 years.

This is not some pie in the sky comparison, but a new and exciting way to look at passive income and how critically important it is that YOU get in on the passive income “bandwagon” asap!

When I first heard about this, I was pretty much blown away at how simple this business is and how you can do it with ZERO cost.

It’s all in today’s video, here:

 

 

Check out the “LinkedIn Business In A Box” course here: https://daveespino.com/LinkedIn

This is an exciting system with an opportunity to make $400 a pop by doing a very simple job.

And, you can do this over and over again as many times as you’d like.

Today, LinkedIn is the place where potential employers go to learn more about you and how you might fit their company as an employee.

In fact, it could be argued that your LinkedIn profile is even more important than your resume or your CV for landing that dream job…

And, how your LinkedIn profile is set up could literally be the difference between getting a $60,000 a year job and a $75,000 a year job – it’s that important.

Well, imagine if you could:

Easily reach a specific type of person – someone who will easily pay your fee – for FREE through LinkedIn messages

Offer them an easy-to-do, specific service (to rewrite and dramatically improve their LinkedIn profile so they get FAR BETTER RESULTS)

Use a template that helps you quickly and easily do the task
And get paid $400 EACH TIME you do this?

Well, a highly-successful LinkedIn profile “makeover artist” named Gloria Gunn, has created one of the most complete “systems” for starting a brand-new business doing exactly this and, it can get you paid by this weekend.

In fact, you’ll even see, on video, Gloria’s business partner actually getting a lead for a profile makeover – all in real time!

You’ll watch him send out the specific message that Gloria recommends that you send out and then you’ll watch as someone messages him back – In real time!

The great thing is, it costs you ZERO to advertise your business because Gloria shows you how to get the leads, just by using LinkedIn, which is completely free.

Then, you just follow her model for making over your clients’ linkedIn profiles and collect your $400 payments!

She even tells you the specific types of occupations that this works best for and that will gladly pay you $400 per makeover.

So, I wanted to share this exciting way to make some really good money – all from the comfort of your own home.

In today’s Daily Hustle, you’ll hear from Jim Cockrum who, with his partners, generates millions of dollars in Amazon FBA sales by using DATA to tell them where the specific “market gaps” are and then using a super-simple, low-cost way to “private label” products that does NOT require huge investment and does NOT require you to order mass quantities from China.

This is absolutely one of the best ways I’ve ever seen to do ecommerce SAFELY, and with very low financial investment and very low risk, as well.

The simple nuggets that Jim explains toward the end of this video go against the standard thinking in the Private Label Amazon FBA world and make this business so much easier, you will be blown away.

If you want to make Amazon FBA your key to millions in business, doing it the right way and investing very little in your business, then there is no better way to do it.
