—Transcript—

What’s up everybody? This is Russell Brunson, welcome back to the Marketing Secrets
podcast. I have just finished day 500, I think I’m at 60 or 70 interviews, 2 huge
webinars, publishing my face off in the middle of the Corona crisis. And I’m curious
have you been taking advantage of this crisis as well?

Alright everybody, obviously right now everyone is kind of in this weird thing. 
And some people are frozen, some people are running, everyone’s got a different 
perspective. But I want to give you guys a glimpse of a perspective right now that
hopefully will shift some things and change some things and get you excited and 
thinking and understanding the possibilities.

So right now obviously so many things have shifted and changed for people. But if
you look at, like what is business as a core? If we take a step back, and you guys
have heard me say this before, it’s not unique, but it’s my beliefs. I feel like
business is a calling. It’s a calling we get from God, or from whatever you want
to call it, but it’s like this internal nudge we feel. If you’ve ever felt that 
pull or that desire, Alex Charfen calls it the call of contribution. You feel this
call of contribution, of like, “I need to do something more. I need to be something
more. I’ve got to figure something out.”

If you’ve ever felt that before, which I’m assuming if you’re here, if you’re listening
to me, you’ve probably done that. Otherwise you wouldn’t have gone on a path that
got you researching things, subscribing to things, and listening to podcasts, if
you didn’t feel that pull you wouldn’t be here. So I’m guessing and assuming that
if you’re here, you felt that before and you’re like, “I need to do something, I
don’t know what it is, but I gotta create and I gotta serve.”

And then what most people do, they go about it backwards.  This is definitely what
I did for the first, I don’t know, 5 to 10 years of my business was, “I’m going 
to go create a product, then I’m going to go figure out how to sell the product,
then I’m going to go find people to sell it to.” But the opposite is true. What 
we do is we feel this calling and the calling is, you’ve been called to serve this
group of people. It’s not you’ve been called to create this product and bring it
to the world. It’s there’s this group of people who are uniquely, you’ve been given
gifts and abilities to uniquely change and serve this group of people. Like your
life experiences, the ups, the downs, the problems, the trials, everything you’ve
had to this point in your life has been given to you as a gift to be able to change
the lives of a group of people you’ve been called to serve, right.

So when you look at the business, that’s what business is. We need to gather people
together, listen to their needs, and figure out how to serve them. That’s what business
is when you boil it down. When you get rid of all the fanciness and the terms and
the strategy and everything, it’s, my job is I’ve been called to serve this group
of people. I’m going to gather them together and I’m going to help them. I’m going
to listen to their needs, figure out what they want, and figure out ways I can help
them.

So that’s what business is, if we boil it down. So right now we’re in this time 
where people have been disconnected, they’re not gathered, they’re pulled apart,
they’re separated back into their families, they’re pulled out of all of these things,
and you look at our job as business owners, what is it right now? It’s to gather
the people, to gather them together, to listen to them, to figure out how you can
help them, how you can serve them.

And what’s crazy, and this is what I wanted to talk about, taking advantage of this
opportunity right now. Right now, two days ago, excuse me it was yesterday, yesterday
I did a webinar, we ended up having 19,000 people registered for this webinar. 19,000
people, I’ve never had that before. That’s a world record for me, by far. That’s
never happened in my history, but it happened. 19,000 people registered for this
webinar, they showed up, and then on this webinar they, we all sat down and we shared
and I taught and we gathered and did my best to teach them, and at the end we made
an offer, and people bought things, and it was really, really good. I listened to
their needs and figured out an offer that would match their needs, and did our best
to create that.

So what’s interesting, is the 19,000 people, man a month ago we would spend anywhere
from 3 to 5 to 8 dollars to get someone to register for a webinar. For this webinar,
for this gathering of people, 19,000 people, we were averaging 78 cents per opt 
in. 78 cents.  My ability now to gather people together is at such a huge, huge 
discount. I understand some of you guys don’t have all the pieces in place yet to
be able to buy ads and things, I understand that, if that’s the case. I understand.
Now’s the time to start studying these funnel things and get them together so you
can profitably generate a funnel.

In fact, if you haven’t seen, man, if you want to see this, go to secretsmasterclass.
com. If you go through that funnel, that’s the webinar. I’m going to be doing it
live again next week. So you can still go and watch the whole process. But you go
to secretsmasterclass.com, register for the webinar, on the pop up we ask you, “
What are you struggling with? You struggling with funnels, struggling with conversions,
are you struggling with traffic?” and based on what you pick, you go to a different
landing page, where I offer you either the Dotcom Secrets book, the Expert, or the
Traffic Secrets book.

So what’s crazy, of those 19,000 people that registered, we sold over $50,000 in
those three book funnels from that window. That’s, that means for every person who
registered for the webinar, we made $3. So I paid 78 cents, I made $3, and then 
the webinar happened, and the webinar sold, at the end of it we sold Clickfunnels.
But what’s crazy is 19,000 people have gathered together. So if my job is to gather
people together, I can do it now at a discount that I never could before.

 And it’s not going to last forever, but man, we are in a season right now. I used
to always say, “I wish I could back in the day when Google was cheap and easy. I
wish I could go back in the day when Facebook was easy.” Right now we have this 
window where it is again. It’s crazy. I was reading articles saying that Facebook
is going to lose like 40 billion dollars in the next quarter because everyone is
pulling their ad costs out. So ad costs are dropping. So it’s like, “Oh my gosh,
here’s this really unique window.” And I’m hoping for most of you guys, you realize
that if you’re gathering your people during this time, whatever level you can. Some
can do it through paid ads, some of you can’t and that’s fine. But your job as business
owners is to gather people, and you can gather people right now at a discount.

People are silently begging to be led. Jay Abraham told me that 2 decades ago, but
it’s still true today. They’re silently begging to be led if you’ll stand up and
gather those people together and let them plug into you. Right now you can do it
at a discount that has not been around since I’ve been online.

So I want you guys to understand that, it’s now. Don’t stand on the sidelines, this
is the game, we’re in the middle of it. There’s been people who whenever this ends,
in a month from now, a year from now, 5 years, I don’t know when it’s going to end,
but on the other side of this who are going to be like, “Man, I wish I would have
taken advantage of that opportunity.”

So I’m here to tell you, take advantage of the opportunity. Go all in, figure this
stuff out. This is the time for all of us to be stepping up and gathering our people
and serving them. It’s funny, I was on an interview with Tom Bilyeu, the founder
of Quest Nutrition, the founder of Impact Theory, and at the end he asked, “What’s
your impact Russell? What is it that you’re trying to do?” and I told him, I said,“
I feel like my role in this whole game, my job is to gather the gatherers and to
give them the tools and resources they need to gather their people.”

So if you look at that, that’s my role, that’s my job. So I’m gathering you guys
together and I’m trying to give you a place of faith and comfort, knowing things
are okay, this is where we’re going, this is the future, these are the opportunities,
this is what you’re not seeing right now, this is what you should be looking at.
And trying to share those things and giving you tools like Clickfunnels and books
to give you the tools and knowledge and everything you need to be able to gather
your people. And I’m trying to be the perfect example, this is how you do it, watch
what I’m doing, and do what I’m doing. I’m trying to make something you guys can
model, so you guys can do that, and then you go out there and do the same thing.
You gather your people together, you listen, you give them faith, you give them 
hope, you give them inspiration, you create the tools and products and services 
and things that are going to help them to do whatever it is that they’re trying 
to do.

I want you guys to understand that. That’s the game, that’s the business we’re actually
in. It’s to gather people, listen to their needs and then serve them. That’s business.
And right now you can gather people at such a discount, at prices we’ve never seen
before. I want you to understand that, now is the time to take advantage of this
opportunity. Because if you do that, man, how much further ahead are you going to
be in a month from now, 6 months from now, a year from now, because you’re able 
to get the ear of people you couldn’t before.

Anyway, I hope that helps some of you guys who are wondering what to do or how to
do or wondering what your roles are in this game. That is how it works, that’s the
game and it’s so much fun to play. And I’m just grateful for the opportunity I have
to be part of it with you guys and to be an example, as imperfect as I am, but an
example of how I would do it if I was you. Because I’m doing it the way I do it,
and hopefully you guys can get ideas and model what I’m doing. But that’s kind of
my goal from this.

Anyway, with that said, I’m done. I’ve done like 60 something interviews this week,
or the last couple of weeks. It’s Friday afternoon for me, I’m going to go take 
off and go play with my kids and my wife and take the rest of the day off. So I 
appreciate you guys, thanks for listening. If you got some value from this or any
of the episodes of the Marketing Secrets podcast, please share them with others.
I appreciate you guys, and if you don’t have your copy of Traffic Secrets yet, for
whatever reason, go to TrafficSecrets.com, get a free copy.

Like I said, if you want to see that funnel and you want to see the webinar, I’m
doing it again live next Thursday, you can go to SecretsMasterclass.com and see 
the funnel, see the process, funnel hack it. 19,000 leads and had a 71% opt in rate.
So the funnel is good, it is working. Alright, thanks you guys, appreciate you all,
have an amazing day. Talk soon.
