How to make your first $ online in the next 48 hours
An autistically detailed 7-step action plan
I’ll cut straight to the chase.
You finally want to make your first $ online.
But you want to make it happen FAST.
In less than 2 days.
So here’s your exact 7-step action plan on how to achieve this:
Step 1: Create your offer
No offer, no business.
So that’s what you should focus on first.
A couple of guidelines here:
Solve ONE specific problem for ONE specific person
Have a compelling & quantifiable promise with a clear timeframe
Create a unique mechanism to achieve this outcome and clearly break it down
Add a crazy guarantee to make your offer a no-brainer
Amazing.
Now reduce the price massively for your first client and off we go.
It’s time to put that bad boy out there.
Step 2: Message everyone in your comment section
For the next 48 hrs, I want you to message every single person who comments on your posts.
Yes, this takes work.
But if it was easy everyone would do it.
So…
What should you message them?
Thank them for engaging with you
Ask them about their brand/business
Pretty simple, huh?
We need to warm them up before pitching them.
Be gentle and try to have a real conversation about their business first.
Step 3: Offer a free consult
Use this exact message:
“Btw [Name] I’m offering 3 free 30-min consultations to [target audience] where we:
[benefit 1]
[benefit 2]
[benefit 3]
Do you happen to know anyone who this might be useful for?”
Make sure to pick really compelling benefits.
Preferably using numbers and timeframes.
Example:
“Btw Fernando, I’m offering 3 free 30-min consultations to ghostwriters where we:
Make a clear action plan for signing their 1st high-ticket client in 48 hours
Create a simple content strategy (to get them 2+ inbound leads every day)
Establish them as an authority in their space with only 1 post per day
Do you… blah, blah, blah”
Step 4: Take on as many free calls as possible
Your goal is to book as many of these calls as possible.
But now what?
What do you say on those calls?
Well, it’s pretty simple:
Small talk (normal human shit; weather, family, favorite football team…)
Ask about their problems (really listen and empathize)
Dig deeper (put a finger on what exactly they’re struggling with)
Dig - you guessed it - deeeeeper
Tell them WHY you think they’re struggling
Give them a neat (but very short) action plan
Step 5: Transition to the offer
This will be super valuable to them.
However, YOU haven’t made any money yet…
So once the 30-min timer runs out… Transition to your (discounted) offer.
“Fernando, unfortunately, our time is already up…
But I think I have something that could help you even faster with [specific problem you talked about].
Are you okay with me telling you about it?”
This is gonna feel uncomfortable as fuck when you first do it.
You need some balls for this.
But this is what it takes.
Step 6: Walk them through your offer
Explain what the offer does, how it is unique, and what benefits they’ll get from it.
Once you’ve done that, ask them:
“Does that sound like something that could help you?”
If they say yes…
It’s time for the scary part.
Step 7: Naming the price
“Awesome. So obviously I can’t do this for free haha. Usually, I’d charge you [usual price] for all this. But because I’m running a special discount this May it’s an investment of only [price].”
Pro-tip: Never say “price” always frame it as an “investment”.
Now shut up.
Say nothing. Let them do the talking.
If they’ve stuck around for this long, the chances of them being interested are pretty damn high.
Clear up any objections/questions and…
BOOOOOM!
You’ve made your first dollar online!
In less than 48 hrs.
This is called Cutting the Crap!
It doesn’t have to be complicated.
All that’s left to do is take action.
