How My Drill Sergeant Made Me Rich And how, for just $6 (for a limited time), you can download an app that will turn your business around in just 10 minutes a day - Mark Joyner, CEO, Aesop.com
" Get up! Get up! Get up!"Those were the words I woke up to every morning in Officer Candidate School ("OCS"). It's funny, but even thinking about that now fills me with energy and makes me ready to face the day. You may not know what OCS is, but you probably remember the movie "An Officer and a Gentlemen" - that was Naval OCS. I went to the Army OCS - it's like the Navy OCS - only much harder! (Just kidding, they're both pretty tough.) When I entered OCS, I was totally out of shape. Like a damn fool, I didn't prepare myself physically for it, and I regretted it every day I was there. That's not what's interesting, though. What's interesting is that by the end of those 14 weeks I was in the best shape of my life. I was hungry, lean and on fire with energy. On top of that I also graduated with one of the top 5 academic averages in my class. How did it happen? Well, now that I can look back on it, I know for sure that there are exactly five things that resulted in my success: 1. Constant Reminders Physical training was the way we started the day - every day. That "Get up! Get up! Get up!" eventually became music to my ears as I looked forward to getting pumped up for the day. 2. Constant Encouragement As much as our instructors made life hell for us (it was tough!), they were constantly encouraging us when we did things well. Do you remember how good it feels when someone you respect gives you a real pat on the back? It's great! It just makes you want to keep going. 3. Camaraderie My fellow candidates were always there to tell me frankly when I was screwing up, give me advice when I needed it, and share a few laughs when the time was right. I will never forget those people. They literally changed my life for the better. 4. Expert Advice Some of the best physical training wisdom in the world is available in the military. At OCS our trainers really knew how to get us in shape fast. They were true experts. The same effort without that guidance definitely would not have delivered the same results. 5. Goal Planning We were encouraged to set goals for our physical training and were constantly reminded of them. This would keep your "eye on the prize" and keep you from getting sidetracked. This system was so effective that I walked out of OCS with a near perfect Physical Training (PT) Test score - 299 out of 300! Later on I was able to apply these same principles to my business, and most of you know where that has gotten me today. I literally owe my success to this experience. As you can see from some of the things I've accomplished, this system definitely works:
I've created electronic books that have been downloaded over 1,000,000 times (that was actually the case over two years ago, I honestly don't know the current count), my name is known across the net as an Internet Marketing expert, I own what is widely regarded as one of the best and largest affiliate programs on the net, I've appeared on national TV, and my company sales volume is just obscene. I'm not just trying to brag - I just want to demonstrate to you what this system has meant for me. This is why my development team and I created the "Promote-ivator". The Promote-Ivator is like Officer Candidate School for anyone doing business on the net. The good news is that it takes only 10 minutes every day. I took those same OCS training principles that have made me so successful and created a system that will make you successful in your Internet business. Let's take a look at how it works: 1. Constant Reminders Once a day, the Promote-ivator will remind you to (and tell you how!) to promote your business. Sadly, when businesses fail it's almost always due to lack of promotion. Ask yourself now if you think you're spending enough time promoting your business. Be honest! Promote-Ivator will keep you on track with simple, easy-to-perform tasks every business day. And it takes only 10 minutes a day. 2. Constant Encouragement The Promote-ivator will make you feel good about your marketing and remind you of how important it is that you promote your business. Remember how important this is! It's so easy to forget why these things are important. 3. Camaraderie A big part of the Promote-Ivator is the "Promote-Ivator Firing Line". This is an exclusive members-only forum where you will make friends and business contacts, and get advice from others who have gone through the same troubles you're experiencing right now. I've also arranged for some of the biggest names in marketing to drop in from time to time. 4. Expert Advice The "Daily Boot to the Head" feature of Promote-Ivator will include hard hitting, and immediately useable tips from some of the biggest names in marketing and advertising: Jay Conrad Levinson, me, Joe Vitale... Just to name a few. The "Daily Patrol" will give you a very specific marketing task to accomplish each day. It will be something easy, but immediately beneficial to your business. 5. Goal Planning Inside Promote-Ivator is also an excellent little tracking device that will allow you to track your current marketing goals and even help you plan out the specific steps to achieve those goals. Not only that but it will remind you of those goals to keep you motivated! As you can see, you simply can't fail with a system like this. It will literally "hard wire" you for success. Naturally, you're thinking, "Of course an annual $6 fee and 10 minutes a day is reasonable, but how can something so good be so inexpensive and require so little time?" Listen, I don't want you to believe me. In fact, I don't even want you to decide right now whether or not this will help you. I'm serious, don't decide now. Here's why: Just pay $6 (only when you order by 19 September) for the 1 year subscription now (that works out to 50 cents a month), and if you don't like it, just send us an email and we'll give you a prompt refund immediately. Then, only after you try it (you can even take up to 30 days to try it) do I want you to make your decision. Click here to kick our tires and try it out.
