The Other Side of the Story

The other day, the New York Times had a story about this guy who started a small business.

Since small business doesn’t really get much exposure in the media, this story was especially interesting.

But here’s the deal:

This guy starts his business six years ago, in 2000.

He invested $250,000.00 (which he borrowed), just to open the doors.

It reminds me of how I invested $80,000.00 back in 1996, in order to start my cleaning and restoration business here in Seattle.

Anyways, back to the story.

Here’ it is six years later, and this poor guy still hasn’t shown a profit in his business.

At this point, you’re probably wondering what business he’s in, or what product he sells, so you can steer clear of this particular kind of business.

His business is a little 24-Hour laundromat that’s located in Brooklyn.

I don’t know about you, but this is really starting to sound like a horror story. And the media (in this case, the New York Times), sure isn’t painting a very pretty picture of small business.

I mean really…

Would YOU aspire to be the owner of a business like this, where after six years, you haven’t made a cent?

I think not!

How would you feel about having your business located in a neighborhood where just going to work requires that you put your life on the line?

Reminds me of when I used to be an Alaska Fisherman.

And let’s not forget the fact that this poor guy is still $250,000.00 in debt.

Now…

I’m not trying to belittle this guy, but I’ve gotta put my two cents in here. This is a terrible way to make a living.

There’s a whole lot easier, and faster ways to make money. And it can be done without going into hock up to your eyeballs.

I mean seriously, me and my clients do it all the time.

A few days ago I was having a phone conversation with one of my newest clients.

His name is Walter Painter, he’s 70 years old (getting ready to celebrate is 71st birthday), he lives in Dalton, Georgia, and he’s only been using my strategies for about 45 days.

He’s been taken advantage of in the past, so he was pretty skeptical when he found me.

But now, he’s a convert.

After using my strategies, and investing about $53 on this little ad campaign I showed him how to set up, he’s already made $299.80 in sales.

Now, before you go thinking, “Well that’s no big deal”.

Let me point out…

It IS a big deal.

In fact, it’s a very BIG DEAL.

Walter took my advice, followed a couple of my strategies, he started small, and as a result, he now owns “a virtual slot machine”.

For every $1 Walter puts in… he gets $5.65 back out.

So let me ask you…

How many times would you like to pull the handle on that slot machine?

Just in case you’re wondering, the correct answer is, “As many times as I can!”

And this ain’t the end of the story, cause ole Walter has barely scratched the surface.

He’s getting ready to start putting a whole lot more money into his “virtual slot machine”, and when he does, he’s gonna get a whole lot more money back out of it.

So, the big question is:

What kind of business owner do you want to be?

Do you want to be like that poor Laundromat owner in Brooklyn, who’s $250,000.00 in debt, working his tail of, putting his life on the line every day, and at the end of six long years… he still hasn’t shown a profit?

Or…

Do you want to be like Walter, and have your own “virtual slot machine” that consistently puts more and more money into your bank account every month, with hardly any work on your part?

If you want to have a business like Walter’s, I would love, absolutely adore, to show you how.
