Week 1
Char*ng The Course
It all starts with the
des*na*on...
[Link]
[Link]
[Link]
Your Des*na*on
• Define what you want
• No sense to jump into the tac*cal un*l
you have defined this as accurately and
vividly as possible
• This might be the hardest part of this
whole deal
[Link]
What do you want?
[Link]
[Link]
• Lifestyle
• What does an ideal day look like?
• How much or liGle do you want to
work?
• Income
• Can you reconcile your lifestyle
and income desires?
[Link]
Income
[Link]
[Link]
• Define the amount of money needed to live your desired
lifestyle
• Determine what material stuff is important to you and how
much that costs as well
• Use those two numbers to figure out your target monthly
income
• Then we can create your plan to get there
• We’ll figure out what you’ll offer, how much you’ll charge,
how many clients you’ll need, and how much traffic you’ll
need in order to get them
[Link]
The Head Stuff
[Link]
[Link]
This is about geMng completely clear about what makes you
happy... what makes you feel the most alive.
Once you have that clear in your preGy liGle noggin, you can
start crea*ng it instead of thinking about all the reasons why you
can’t have it.
Or that you don’t deserve it.
Or that you’re a greedy egocentric gluGon for wan*ng more than
you already have.
[Link]
Your assignment
[Link]
[Link]
• Write a detailed leGer to yourself describing your desired
outcome. (The more detailed the beGer. Imagine it VIVIDLY.)
• Yeah, it may seem corny but... (my new house)
• On a separate piece of paper, write the amount of money
needed to live your desired lifestyle
• Write the cost of the material stuff you want
• Add up those two numbers and write your target monthly
income
[Link]

If you already have a list...

• Iden-fy your dream client
• Validate your choice
• Are there enough people to support your bad habits?

[Link]
The big ques-on...
[Link]
[Link]
• If you could only get paid based on the results
you get your clients... who would you choose
to work with?
• The “lay down” – the person/market you can
get the results for the easiest. (They’ll also be
the easiest to sell.)
[Link]
Define your dream client...
[Link]
[Link]
• Man or woman?
• Income range?
• Specific profession?
• Conserva-ve or liberal?
• Subscribe to certain publica-ons?
• Other psychographic stuff?
[Link]
An example for Marke-ng Consultant...
[Link]
[Link]
• Sells high -cket products and/or services (Because he/she can
jus-fy my expense.)
• Understands the importance of marke-ng
• Is direct marke-ng savvy
• Is currently spending money on marke-ng
• A “salt of the earth” person

How to create a newsle*er
[Link]
[Link]
that has impact...
MOST IMPORTANT:
Millward Brown & Bangor University
• Material shown in hard copy generated more acLvity
within the area of the brain associated with the
integraLon of visual and spaLal informaLon (the leY
and right parietal).
• This suggests that physical material is more “real” to
the brain. It has a meaning, and a place. It is be*er
connected to memory because it engages with its
spaLal memory networks.
[Link]
How to create a newsle*er
[Link]
[Link]
that has impact...
• More processing is taking place in the right
retrosplenial cortex when physical material is
presented. This is involved in the processing of
emoLonally powerful sLmuli and memory, which
would suggest that the physical presentaLon may be
generaLng more emoLonally vivid memories.
• Physical acLvity generates increased acLvity in the
cerebellum, which is associated with spaLal and
emoLonal processing (as well as motor acLvity) and is
likely to be further evidence of enhanced emoLonal
processing.
