In my previous email, I promised to give you my answer to the following question:
What kind of person is money attracted to?
Well, Sparky, here’s my answer:
Wait.
I’m gonna give you my answer in two parts, okay?
Here’s Part One:
The type of person that money is attracted to is…
….A Problem Solver!
Hard to disagree with, ain’t it?
I mean, think about it: business is nothing more than the exchange of goods and services for money. And, goods and services are nothing more than solutions to problems.
Whether you realize it or not, everything you have ever bought has solved a problem.
Most people would disagree with that last statement, but that’s because most people never stop long enough to actually analyze anything. Thus, they make misguided assumptions.
Case in point:
I’ll lay odds that most people assume buying a case of beer is not really solving a problem.
I say thee nay!
Beer DOES solve a problem; a most vexing problem at that.
I submit to you that most folks buy beer to solve the following problem: being overworked or stressed.
Make no mistake, my friend, being too stressed and overworked is a BIG problem. There are many ways to solve this problem, of course. You can go for a walk, watch a movie, or play some sport. But, as much as people hate being overstressed, people also hate actually having to do something to feel relaxed. Even if it’s as little as deciding which movie to watch.
Listen: NEVER underestimate the lazy gene in humans.
We want what we want, and we want it right freakin’ now!
We want to go from point A (our problem) to point B (the solution) in the quickest, easiest and most direct way humanly possible.
And when it comes to relaxation, beer is that quick and easy solution.
Beer’s basically relaxation in a bottle!
Now, here comes Part Two of my answer.
The type of person that money is attracted to is a problem solver who…
Knows How To Sell Their Solution!
You see, if you solve a problem that hordes of other business owners are also solving, the fact that you have a solution means very little.
If you’re a plumber, no one will give a rat’s arse that you can solve their plumbing problem.
Why?
Because you are just one of many other plumbers. Having a solution to a problem that many other people are also solving is like being the world’s tallest midget – no one cares!
However, if you can show your prospects that YOUR plumbing business is the quickest, easiest and most direct solution to their plumbing problem…
…Rivers of Money Will Flow
Your Way!
That’s right; if you can make your product or service as attractive as a cold beer on a hot day, and make buying your product or service as easy as grabbing a cold one from the fridge…
…You Can Write Your Own Ticket!
