Why You’re Missing Out When You Say No To Freebies

Information Overload

There is so much information floating around the social media and internet world.

Soo much, right?  Sometimes I just shut down and shut off.

In order to live the way I love, my phone lives on silent.  Sometimes I have to be okay with pissing people off.  I am a little obsessed with Instagram though, not gonna lie, you can find me stalking photo’s there often.

Yesterday I had 7 invitations to workshops and Tele-seminars happening this week from several of my friends in the coaching community.  I also had 10 missed calls and 5 voice mails from my mom in a 2 hour time span.

It feels like anytime I want something it will be there.

So, why worry about responding right away or showing up this time?  It feels like that, but I learned the hard way, it’s not true.  There is life changing content out there and people waiting to serve you and it’s totally FREE.  Your mom might not always be able to call.

The best things in life ARE free and they are slipping right under your nose and you have your nose turned up so you won’t notice.

This is your Wednesday wake up call.  As you know, I’m here every week bringing it to you straight.

I woke up, I missed out and I was PISSED.

Why Life Experts Are REALLY Giving Their Time For Free

The cool thing about marketing these days is that people are giving away lots of valuable content and expensive information totally for FREE.

Yes, free content is a marketing move but you don’t have to put your “sleaze ball radar” on.  Anytime you see a free challenge, tele-seminar, interview, opt in offer, one time gift or downloadable PDF, chances are it IS part of a business plan.  This doesn’t have to be a secret.  The good news is that business plan is created with the intention to provide you with our BEST tools, research, knowledge and support for FREE.

Seriously, that’s the secret strategy you hear every successful entrepreneurs share “Give away your best for FREE.  Everybody is doing it and you are missing out on a happier customer if you don’t”.

If you are saying no to these free events because you think you’re being ‘played a fool’ then the truth is you are a fool.  Sorry guys.

If there is someone out there dedicating their life to serving you and helping you grow as a person, entrepreneur, lover or in your health, don’t you think it would be wise to listen to what they have to share?

Missing Out Sucks 

Two weeks ago I missed an amazing free Webinar by my friend Derek Halpern because I said no to all invites that week with a snotty snout nose.

Turns out, this was some of his best kept secret tips for branding that will bring in super fans.

I’m currently going through a massive re-branding and working on 3 fierce websites that will launch this winter.  This is the kind of insight, knowledge and support I need.  If I want to work with Derek I’d probably have to pay him thousands of dollars to sit down for a consultation, so he can tell me exactly what he told everyone for free.

My Mom Went To Jail

Last year my mom stopped calling for a few days and I knew something was wrong.  I always thought I was overwhelmed with her needs and calls, until she was put in jail and I stopped receiving any contact or voice-mails from her.

I had the feeling of now knowing what it would be like when she was gone and how it felt not to be able to talk to her when I wanted.

This was a real quick fix to appreciating her endless calls and answering more often then I normally would.  30 days is all you need to break a bad habit or pattern and that’s how long my mom was locked up.  I may not be able to fix her problems but I don’t stick up my nose anymore when she calls.  I’m thankful to hear from her.

Be Strategic With Your Free Choices

The best thing you can do for yourself is get clear about what kind of growth would currently serve you and where you need to expand your expertise.

Then go out and support your mentors fully.

Give feedback and thanks to the thought leaders who are researching the crap out of the things you need to know most.

Say yes to the FREE resources that is in line with where you are in need of receiving and SHOW UP!  Don’t forget to express your gratitude.

Your mentors appreciate your gratitude and it will inspire them to keep giving whole heartily and I encourage you to do the same.

Speaking of freebies, I have tons of them on my FREE resources page here.

Now I’m curious? What is the best FREE training you ever received?

How did it change your life or business?
