Today’s Living The Retirement Lifestyle interview is with online business veteran of 20 years Charlie Page who we’ve had the pleasure of being both friends and students of during our ten years in the space. Charlie is one of the “good guys” in the not so perfect world of the internet .
Listen in as he tells his story of how he began his online career and how it evolved over the years and listen out for his golden nuggets
Just think about the Internet 20 years ago
- Dial Up
- Very few advertising venues
- No social media
- AOL was the king!
Goodness how things have changed
During his 20 years it’s incredible to see someone who cares so much about his clients and customers
His message is that if he can do it then you can do it too
Because what he teaches is not some here today gone tomorrow strategy but how to fish
We asked him if he were starting over what would be his top tips
FOCUS
If you’re going to succeed online it is going to be important to learn to focus on ONE thing until it is finished
The most damaging syndrome online is not information overload its the damaging trend of half built bridges
- Autoresponders with no messages in them
- Blogs with no posts on them
- Products that are bought and never used
- PLR products purchased and never set up
We are all guilty of this quite honestly – we know we are too!
The bottom line is this – commit to doing less and always finishing what you start and you will automatically do more.
SYSTEMS
Automation is the key to having time freedom and financial success
Automated marketing system keep the sales rolling in even when you are not able to show up for “work”
We can definitely testify to this and why we are forever teaching our students and clients to concentrate on building out an automated system which works even when you are not working
