NO Free Lunch

By Jon Acuff

When you launch an event, book, or product, you have to decide whether you’ll charge for it. Popular rhetoric will argue that it should be free. That makes sense in theory. If something cost $10 and something else was free, the free item would be more popular. More people, realizing they don’t have $10, will jump on board with the option that costs zero dollars. That’s a nice theory, but reality doesn’t always work that way. In fact, I’ve learned just the opposite. I’ve been holding meetups in cities across the country. During the meetups, I teach about bravery and hustle. It’s essentially an hour long event and it’s free. Of the people that sign up online, only about 30% show up. Contrast that with the paid events I’ve tried. When I charge for an event, 90% of the attendees show up. Why does this happen? Because if you pay $10 for an event, you have skin in the game... People don’t value things that don’t have value. If you want to increase the number of people who sign up for something, give it away for free. If you want to increase the number of people who show up and are invested in what you’ve created, consider charging. If you believe that what you’ve created will actually help someone change their life, you dramatically increase the chances of the person actually using it if you charge them money for it. You think you’re doing them a charity by giving it away for free but you’re actually removing reasons they’ll use what you’ve created. Remember this: When something costs us nothing, we tend to invest the same amount in it.

This kind of business can generate six figures even seven figures depending on what you put into it.

Without much story let me show you the secret.

The first secret is buying mutual funds in the money market most people may not have heard about the money market;it is a market in which long and short term debt are traded.Money market funds is the mixture of stocks/bonds or bond/stocks /any other security. The advantage of this is  that it offers a low level of risk and your investment is spread on many Portfolios thereby minimizing the level of risk involved.

The second secret is buying shares that are traded on the stock market stock picking involves a very high level of risk and it requires expertise to be able to to pick the right  stock that  would bring considerable returns over time . I categories some stocks nas  dead stocks; they are stocks that will not yeild any dividend overtime you must be able to identify those stocks.another vital point is that you must know when to sell your stock or hold it so as to maximize your profit.

The third is as easy as ABC starting a business:s starting a business is is like making investment is something that will brig profit.

BIG DREAMERS ARE BIG ACHIEVERS

                                                        

An elephant and a dog became pregnant the same time. Three months down the line the dog gave birth to six puppies. six month later the dog was pregnant, and nine months on it gave birth to another  dozen puppies. The trend continued like that.

On the eighteenth month the dog approach the Elephant and said are you sure you are pregnant at all we became pregnant the same day ,I have given birth three times to a dozen puppies and they are now grown up to become big dogs, yet you are still pregnant .whats going on?

The elephant replied there something you don’t know. What am carrying is not a puppy but an Elephant .i only give birth to one in three years when my baby hits the ground ,the earth feels it. When  my baby crosses the road, human beings stop and watch in admiration, what I carry attract and command respect. So what am carrying is mighty and great.

Moral Lesson : Don't loose hope on yourself when you see others achieving great things. Dont ever be envious of them .if you haven’t achieved the way you want it just know that one day you will make it. say to yourself my time is coming, and when it hits the surface of the earth,  people will watch in awe and admiration.
