    The One Little 'Secret' For Repeat Sales

    EXECUTION 
    I've been selling online since 2000. And to be honest with you, I am NOT tech oriented. In fact, I am probably one of the worst cases, knowledge wise, of online entrepreneurs on this forum. I am extremely slow to incorporate new ideas, advertising, or 'upgrades' to my business. Sometimes too...

    Don't make people feel you are trying to trick them

    MARKETING 
    This is going to be a very short rant. I receive a number of messages through Linkedin and other social channels every week. I read almost all of them, not because they are (mostly) good copywriting but I am obsessed to see why they suck and make me feel like somebody tries to trick me : )...

    Trying to live UNSCRIPTED

    INTRO 
    It doesn’t matter what mirror you look in. You will see the same reflection. You will be the same person until you change the person inside. You’ve probably seen my name and wondered if it was real. My name is Daniel Rojas but picked up the name Danny Reds growing up. Growing up I had a good...

    Cold calling, where's the middle ground?

    I've recently been trying many different cold calling scripts and after calling a bunch of people and doing many tests, I've found a recurring problem.
