We’ve just announced the winner of our $100,000 contest…and man, was it TOUGH.

More than 600 of you chimed in on these three questions:

  1. Do you know what your single greatest constraint is right now? If so, what is it?
  2. How many constraints away are you from having the business and the life of your dreams?
  3. What are the three greatest benefits you’ll enjoy once those constraints are removed?

You gave us some tremendous answers, making this one of the hardest decisions we’ve ever had to make.

But when it all came down to it, one post shined brightest among all the others.

So without further adieu, the winner of $100,000 worth of my coaching and products is…

Sarah Hurty!

Sarah’s post hit the nail on the head. She truly understands how much the concept of overcoming constraints is affecting her business, and how miraculous it will be when it is removed forever.

Below is Sarah’s winning post:

I work with financial advisors to help them market their practice, especially over the internet.

I work with a premier wealth preservation attorney with a list of approximately 100,000 financial advisors.

1. My single greatest constraint right now is refining processes and automating them. I’m working on that right now.

We sell a templated website with high quality content and interactive features for these financial advisors. It is completely customizable.

Then many of them opt for marketing coaching and SEO services. This is high dollar residual income, from services that provide high value clients for them.

Because their industries are so regulated in certain aspects, there are nuances to each client and site installation. Plus those who have a particular USP need that to be reflected throughout their site.

So much of the process can be automated, freeing up time for the essential one on one for the high level coaching.

2. I am two constraints away from having the business of my dreams. The first one is automating processes for the site installations and the SEO. (Again, both are part way done.)

The second one is "automated" process for content creation for my marketing membership that many of these guys are joining. I’m working toward this as well, but it is not finished.

Quite frankly, my business would absolutely explode both monetarily and in strong deliverables/results for the advisors. That would be a serious pleasure to see their success.

3. The three greatest benefits I will enjoy once these constraints are removed:

a) Spending more of my business time in intensive work with an inner circle of very serious advisors. This is germinating now, and ready to fluorish with the availability of time. I love and believe in the value that some of these advisors offer, and would enjoy helping them succeed to the height of their business dreams.

b) Being able to launch my "real" business goal when I first started three years ago: helping work at home/stay at home moms and dads accomplish their Family Mission. There is way too much to this to go into it here, and I don’t want to share names in this venue. But my dream is for the profits from helping "western world" families accomplish their Family Mission (including the financial freedom to allow them to do whatever it is in the world that they are called to do) to fund the exact same thing happening for families in the "developing world" through micro loans.

c) Bringing my husband home from corporate medicine, setting our family free to go anywhere in the world to do what we are called to do, living our Family Mission.

Thanks, Rich.


Congrats Sarah–and well done!

To Higher Profits,

Rich

With the proliferation of web videos, it would
appear that many have no shame producing and
distributing crappy videos. While if this is
a video of your dog Charlie catching a frisbee
while jumping off the dock at the lake, that
is one thing.

But if this video is a business video that is
promoting, demonstrating, or giving a tutorial
on how to use your product, that is entirely
a different matter. From the viewers prospective,
if you don’t care about using a crappy
demonstration video “why would your attitude when
you created your product or service be any
different.” If you as a business are providing a
quality product or service – then tell the
world about it in with videos, but do it right.
By just implementing a few production details,
you too can create high quality web videos.

There is a man from Wisconsin, a former Microsoft
Techie, who has begun a crusade to rid the web of
crappy videos. Lon Naylor shows you (with videos
of course) exactly what you need to do in order
to create videos that will make your business
product or service shine. In a step by step
system he calls “Ace the Audio”, he shows you the
techniques that can turn a bumbling and stumbling
video narration into something that sounds like
it was recorded at a production studio. In this
twelve part module, Lon breaks it down into simple
lessons, skillfully demonstrated in video form,
exactly how to produce a studio quality narration
for your videos. Did I mention for a limited time,
Lon is giving you access to this video completely
free! – Click Here for Details
http://tinyurl.com/4ed7yu

In the members area of his site, Lon takes you
through a total of nine different modules, each
done in the same format as “Ace the Audio”. S
tarting with a fantastic video overview tutorial,
Lon takes you step by step with modules like Video
Strategies, Creating Killer Screencast Videos,
Planning and Preparing Your Video, Recording Your
Videos, Editing Your Videos, as well as a Module
on Video Production. Before you put another crappy
video up, you owe it to your business to discover
how with a few simple techniques you can make your
videos look like high quality video productions.
Your business’s image is at stake, learn how simple
it is to project a video image that matches the
high quality of your business’s products and
services. http://tinyurl.com/4ed7yu
