i woke up today and was really shocked by what just happened. I’m feeling a bit scattered and need someone else’s perspective on what the next move should be. I’m guessing I’m doing something right?

My camera broke! the lens gears are broken and it won't zoom, focus or even move. Just clicks and jams. oh well, it happens. So, Ivan A. May I ask can you recommend me a camera possibly? or at least minimal specs I need? Thank you in advance. I have been shooting videos with my web cam and my monitor cam. They both are sub par. My computer isn't that powerful so I tried OBS and its just slow and laggy. Seems I am at the mercy of Quicktime for now. Editing is not a problem. Shooting and lighting is all worked out. But I have to replace the camera. Having said all that. I am filming and having success with the process. Its a lot of fun and I feel good about my delivery. The video I am making is probably going to be about 20 minutes long. So far I have half filmed when my camera broke. Thank you to the group for all your support and encouragement. It really pushed me over the starting line.

Hey guys - thank you to those who have been here since the beginning, after a long break from posting content on YouTube I am back and doubling down HARD I have just uploaded the first free mini course under the Classroom tab, its a short and sweet A-Z mini course on how to create content for growth on social media. It's a small sample of what's to come. I have a full extensive and ELITE level course on the way soon on how to best use content in your business, this is stuff people easily charge tens of thousands of dollars for. And I will be hosting it in this community for FREE (for now for those of you who are already here) Enjoy 🫡

Starting out in sale was a fools gambit. Most people start young and are easily sold on the 'dream' of being financially secure, rich, wealthy and even own houses and cars. In other words, passionate and courageous young people who happen to be ignorant jump into sales because the end goal literally smashes all their hot buttons. They just can't help it. And this is how I got started. It didn't matter what the product was, how hard the process really was or the long learning curve. All I knew is I was going to get there as fast as I could. 30 years later............... First giant upgrade for me was learning how to get VIP and C suite people one the phone. Internet was young back then and usually the admin assistant intercepted the emails anyway. I read books, attended networking meetings and bought courses. Not much help there. The networking was all bums like me, the courses where too general and dated, and the books where all cheaply repackaged psychology lessons. My breakthrough was to find CEOs, Presidents and the like and hang out with them. Guess what? They are regular shmucks like you and me. You couldn't pick them out of a crowd to save your life. So I abandoned my old trainers and techniques and just insisted on being around these people. And sure enough, I learned their language, routines, personal interests and the like. It was so easy to reach them after that, but not necessarily on the phone. Next major mile stone was learning to sell. Man I got so good at selling. Particularly at group presentations and Q/A. Secret is knowing your material inside and out. One major key to selling is being a nice person to the point that your prospects enjoy your company and they make friends with you. I also did a lot if KTA (kitchen table appointments) and that's where you really learn to sell good and ask awesome questions. KTAs help you develop about 5-7 core questions for the prospect to position them into a buying mode. Not my favorite selling style but it worked at the time.
