How And Why Developing Skills Is The Gateway To Previously Untapped Opportunities!
Entrepreneur do you realize most of your major competitors who attempt to write their own on or offline sales copy typically have no clue what they’re doing? Nod your head cadets because it’s true.
Sure they either put something down on paper or use a keyboard. But they literally have no idea they’re suppose to be writing from the ‘what’s in it for me?” perspective. And as a direct result both their written, audio or video ads usually fall flat and completely miss the mark.
And their front end ad costs continually exceeds their incoming revenue. On the other hand devoting enough time an effort into developing skills for any given challenge. Or area of your business or service.
Over time as your skills gradually and steadily improve. At some point the previously untapped opportunities consistently begin to not only appear but multiply as well. Entrepreneur is this an outcome you could definitely learn to live with?
Ladies And Gentlemen Growing Your Business Or Service Definitely Takes Time And The Development Of Skills!
Case in point. In a recent post the featured image was a skilled surfer riding a massive wave. This particular featured post is of a skilled unicyclist. The reason both images were featured is because.
Do you know anyone whose really skilled at riding a unicycle? Or how about you? Can you ride one fairly well? In case, it’s it’s you or someone you know. It definitely didn’t happen overnight, did it? Meaning, you didn’t just one day decide to become proficient at riding a unicycle.
And poof within just 30-45 short minutes later. Low and behold you were an expert. Am I right? But somehow when it comes to developing other potentially valuable skills or bankable expertise.
The vast majority seem to think they can accomplish or somehow reach expert status simply by utilizing hit and half baked miss efforts. That is until the real world continuously bites them (extremely hard!) in a certain part of their anatomy.
And they awaken only to finally realize and appreciate it’s definitely gonna take some laser focus and extreme dedication. Which explains “why” a staggering 90-97% of annual new years resolutions are abandoned by the second or third week of February. Say what?
Developing Some Bankable Skills Definitely Takes Time And Some Laser Focused Efforts!
As mentioned in a previous blog post. Take your “C” plus and “B” level copy writers. These men & women are not quite “A” level status. Because even though they are extremely well paid on the initial front end of a project. The vast majority of them. Say 99% don’t receive any royalty percentages on the potentially lucrative back end of their writing assignments.
But a certain percentage of them can still earn six and seven figures a year. This in mind. Take a look at the sample capture page featured below. It was created in less than thirty minutes total.
Using nothing more than my paid email service provider of choice, Awber-s standard landing page/sign up form creation software. Which for the record is nowhere near as robust as other paid options like OptimizePress or Russell Brunson’s “Clickfunnels” software.
But still in all. You or your major competitors can definitely either create some outstanding looking, fully functional landing pages hosted by Aweber. Or you can pay someone like yours truly to create some similar to the one you see below.

Case in point. At first glance, which industry do you think would be utilizing this particular approach? Meaning prospecting online for potential first time homebuyers?
If you guessed a licensed real estate agent or broker. Congratulations. But “what” if a licensed, commission only mortgage broker were to at least A/B split test this particular lead generating approach? Say what?
They wouldn’t necessarily have to build the landing (aka) capture themselves. They could pay someone like yours truly to do it or several for them. And start driving both paid and free organic traffic to it.
Their free laser targeted traffic strategies might be writing or having written a series of ‘how to” educational blog posts and guests blog posts on relevant blogs. Or start doing a weekly or monthly series of guest podcasting appearances.
And in their bio offer their free problem solving, (opt in email building) lead magnet special report. Or webinar recording link. Or their 1-3 page cheat sheet etc.
Sometimes You Use One One Bankable Skill Simply As A Lead Generator To Initially Get You In The Door!
The point is they or their major competitors could start inexpensively A/B split testing different main power headlines and free list building giveaways. In order to determine what specific benefits their ideal prospects responds best to.
And of course the flip side is. Let’s say you’re into teaching busy moms “how” to start investing into “Index Funds” or “Crypto Currencies” or you name it. Can you see or are you starting to better appreciate ‘how’ this landing page approach could be or quickly become your front door to starting a potentially meaningful conversation with a potentially hot prospect? For literally pennies on the dollar.
