The Best Sales and Marketing Techniques from my Mastermind

I’ve been fortunate to be exposed to some amazing internet advertisers through my Mastermind. And in 2019 I plan to double down on my efforts in running facebook ads etc.

So here is a mash up from my notes of the best advice I have received related to advertising. Sometimes my notes are just not that complete but I think you will get the idea.

Lewis Howes – Viral Advertising
Title or headline examples:

• Before you celebrate your birthday, watch this
• Before you make an excuse, watch this
• If you want to become a millionaire watch this
• Every parent should watch this

Minimum 3 minutes in video length, shoot for 3-8 mins

Example script:

Did you ever struggle in school? I learned early on that I needed good grades, but when I was in school I stuttered. I always felt inadequate.

As I got older I found out that stuttering doesn’t indicate your potential!

The truth is… successful people think outside of the box.

If you failed in school you might be more qualified to be a millionaire than you thought!

You were taught to sit still but not when to speak up against bullying…

Don’t sell the system – sell the results!

Elijah Rubin
Empathize with your customer. When you try to sell to them, their NO really means “Please don’t give up on me yet! I just don’t know enough to make a decision!”

• FEEL
• FELT
• FOUND

Example: If you feel like you are meant to do greater things than your current 9-5 job, well I felt the same way. 5 years ago I ended up in a dead end job that was crush gin my spirit, but then I found that starting my own side hustle gave me an avenue to become excited again!

NO words: Fee, Cost, Price! ONLY use Invest or Investment

1. Hope for gain
2. Fear of loss

Example: You are going to want to invest because you will love the results.

Positive presuppositions: Just by watching this video I know you are an action taker looking for more out of life. Maybe you’ve done well but are ready to do even better, etc

Confirmation sets: 2 obvious and 1 future set

• You are here and ready to learn real estate
• You know that having the best knowledge will give you the best chance of success
• You are ready today to invest in starting your own real estate business

Facebook ads that convert!

Problem / Solution: Summer is coming and when you are invited to go to the beach what will you say? Get in bikini shape in no time with XYZ workout routine.

1. The HOOK
2. Demonstration

$5 CPM average on Facebook

Ask 1,000 people per day to buy your stuff:

Example: Billy ran an ad with 27 million views, 20,000 customers, and $2,000,000 in revenue on a cost of $135,000

That means 99.92% of people said NO! But he made $2 million dollars!

Boring ads will put you out of business in 2019.
