I want to introduce you to 2 people.  They are real, but I have changed their identification to make them anonymous. 

Both people have received information about my primary business opportunity, information they actively asked for.  Both people received the informational emails, but they reacted very differently.

Let me first tell you that my autoresponder emails are designed in such a way as to filter out the “tire kickers” and bring out the true entrepreneurs, those that can see an opportunity for it’s potential and act on it.

Back to my story.  The first response was an actual email I received this morning, from a fellow I’ll call Fred. 

Fred has a VICTIM MENTALITY. 

Here is his email in response to the information he’s received:

“You guys keep sending me emails, but you’ve never given up any phone #s. Yet you ask me for credit card info online. What kind of idiot do you take me for. Either send me some info that looks real, or F*%* Off. Whats the number to this business you speak of? If it’s really that important to get me involved in this amazing business that I’ve never heard of send me something free in the mail before you try to rack up my Credit card. Good luck though, hope all yours scams go well. Bye.”

 

Here’s a second email I received a while back, from a fellow I’ll call Tom.

Tom is a TRUE ENTREPENEUR.  Here is his response to the same information as Fred received.

“Dear Dr. Clarke,

Your opportunity sounds intriguing, but I’m hesitant to pull the trigger without speaking with you and getting some questions answered.  Please call me at (201) XXX-XXXX at your earliest convenience.

Thanks  and I look forward to speaking with you.”

Can you see the difference in mindset? 

It’s the difference between a TRUE ENTREPRENEUR and a HOME BUSINESS WANNABE.

It’s the difference between someone who is successful in life versus someone who blames everyone else for their failures.

It’s the difference between the rich and the poor.

So what happened to Fred and Tom?

Tom (the entrepreneur) and I had a great conversation that night, he asked great questions, considered the opportunity for a few days and then joined our team.  He’s now on his way to his new fortune.

Fred (the Home Business Wanna Be)?  I have no idea.  He’s probably still searching the Internet for that ONE sure thing that will put him on Easy Street.

Here is how I answered Fred.  Maybe you’ll think it’s harsh, but even the thought of talking with him and his negative energy gave me a headache.  Negative energy has NO place in an entrepreneur’s life. 

But that’s a story for another blog post.

Here’s my response to Fred.

“Dear Fred,

I guess I was that kind of idiot.   I paid for my application, knowing it could be fully refunded, liked what I saw, got my questions answered, and now I make $10-15K a month part time with my business. 
 
I am looking for people with an entrepreneurial mindset — ones who will go the extra mile to check out an intriguing opportunity.  This kind of person emails me about the opportunity, asks me to call them, and we have an intelligent conversation.  They don’t always join our team, but it’s always a great conversation and both of us learn something.
 
The best thing about making 5 figures is that I get to choose who I want to work with.  I have unsubscribed you from my email list, so you don’t have to worry about being bothered again.
 
I hope you find what you’re looking for elsewhere.
 
Regards,
 
Dr. Bob Clarke “

Which type of person are you?  

Are you a “Fred”,  always being the VICTIM, afraid of being scammed and unable to really look at an opportunity objectively? 

Or are you a “Tom”,  an ENTREPRENEUR just looking for that next opportunity to come your way so you take action and make it work for you.?

You have the power to decide.
