The Simple Recipe for Internet Success

I just got finished with a private coaching session and I had to write you. Yet another fitness professional is seeing the profit potential of the internet.

So why am I telling you?

Because if you haven't figured it out yet, there are billions of people all over the world who are YOUR potential customers - thanks to the internet.

As I was telling this gentleman, I have customers all over the world in more countries than I can count - thanks to the internet.

My private coaching clients have customers from all over the world who have purchased their information products - thanks to the internet.

So what about you?

It's really not that hard. Yes, there is work involved, but since you read my 'stuff' I know you're more than intelligent enough to follow this simple recipe for internet success.

1) Create a free ebook to give away and promote it on a one-page website. There'e something about a free ebook that people love. It will help build your list almost overnight.

You can see how I did it at http://www.ptsalestips.com

2) Start writing 'how to' articles and posting them all over the internet. Your bio at the end of the article should send readers to your one-page website where they download your free ebook.

3) The most important thing to know about being a fitness internet marketer is your LIST is the most valuable thing you own. You must build it, nurture it and protect it. It is your livelihood. The above steps are the basics of building that list.

4) Become a serious student of internet marketing. Learn from fellow fitness pros like Tom Venuto. He's the author of, according to ClickBank, the best-selling fitness ebook of all time.

Check it out at: http://www.burn-the-fat-now.com

Study the:
- design of the site
- the extaordinary sales copy
- positioning of Tom's picture at the top (think people aren't enticed by ripped abs?)
- testimonials
- bonus products that come with it
- guarantee
- PS's at the end
- way he educates his affiliates to help sell more books

It's a masterpiece. And I highly recommend you buy a copy. Don't you think it's a good idea to know what the layout of the best-selling fitness ebook of all time looks like? http://www.burn-the-fat-now.com

Don't you think it's a good idea to know EXACTLY how he handles the entire order process. How he follows up with his customers? How he sells more on the backend? There's an awful lot you can discover by ordering a product through a successful fitness internet marketer.

http://www.burn-the-fat-now.com

5) Keep track of the feedback that comes from your newsletter list. Believe me, they will love your information and they will be happy to tell you what else they are looking for and in what format. And best of all, they will be happy to pay for it!

Again, there's work involved. But when you start to wake up in the morning and see orders flooding your inbox you'll realize it's more than worth it. You will:

- make more money
- work less
- help more people (all around the world)

So, when do you get started?

Yours in prosperity,
Jim Labadie

Have you watched this yet?

I think a lot of people think I'm talking a whole lot of 'BS' when I say you can run your business the easy way or the hard way. There's no doubt you can succeed either way. It's simply a matter of allowing yourself to move past the 'you must work hard to get ahead in life' crap you were taught as a kid.

Now don't get me wrong. You're going to have to work. There are times when I work my butt off. But I also know that I have the Law of Attraction working on my behalf. So I do what needs to be done and not a thing more.

In an earlier Labadie Unleashed I recommended a movie called "The Secret" which reveals the power of the Law of Attraction. Guys like Alwyn Cosgrove and Zach Even-Esh have privately raved to me about the film. I don't see a single dime for promoting it to you. The link below is not an affiliate link. I'm telling you about it because it's in your best interests to watch it.

So what IS in it for me?

Well, as Zach and I talk about at length in http://www.fitnessbusinessmindset.com, I'm 'paying it forward.' It will come back to me in ways that I can't possibly even imagine right now.

Stop procrastinating and watch it. At some point you'll email me to thank me for telling you this.
Here's where:

PS- Again, allow yourself to live life the easy way. Watch "The Secret" right away!

http://www.thesecret.tv

It's staring you right in the face

Opportunity is everywhere. It's present at all times. I write about that all the time in my http://www.labadieunleashed.com emails. And Zach Even-Esh and I talk about it on http://www.fitnessbusinessmindset.com.

Lyle Johnson, one of my http://www.howtoprofitwithbootcamps.com customers is the perfect example of having the "opportunity is everywhere" mindset.

Last year, before getting our Boot Camp Kit, he had three people enroll in his camp. Then he got real savvy and started working his connections. Before you know it he's got three camps. And one of them is working with the front office people of the St. Louis Cardinals baseball team. Inside Busch Stadium itself!

Pretty damn cool, huh?

Now here's the thing. Don't just jump on this idea and start calling all your local sports teams. You could and, in fact, you should. But don't be one of those people who just copies everything. Give it a day and contemplate the possibilities. Meditate on it.

Why?

Because there may be even greater opportunities staring you right in the face. Simply let this idea be a springboard for your own greatness.

Here's another one for you:

I recently read, on page 90 of the June 2006 issue of Entrepreneur magazine, a great article on rising health care costs and the new "health savings account" plans. It's a terrific article and I highly recommend you read it. Essentially, it gave me the idea that fitness pros have great potential joint venture partners in companies that sell health insurance plans.

There's a ton of small business who are getting killed by health insurance costs.
There's a ton of insurance companies who would love to sell them a new plan.

See where I'm going with this?

Ok. Maybe not.

From what I understand these new "health savings account" plans put the honus on the employee to stay healthy since a great deal of their medical costs will be coming out of their own pocket.

The small business saves money with the new plan.

The insurance company makes money selling it.

The employee gets healthy taking YOUR fun and affordable fitness boot camp. Which, by the way, was recommended by both the employer and the health insurance company.

Opportunity is everywhere. It's staring you right in the face - right now.

Yours in prosperity,

PS- The latest testimonials for http://www.howtoprofitwithbootcamps.com

1) "Hi Jim,

My name is Lyle Johnson, owner of MVP Fitness in St. Louis. I purchased your Boot Camp Start Up Kit and have gotten great results. I have had 44 camp members enroll in MVP Fitness Boot Camp in the first month. Not bad considering I only had 3 clients last year before the Kit!
Currently I am holding three camps; one at a local high school, another in an affluent subdivision and the other one for the St. Louis Cardinals Baseball Organization, which is actually held on the baseball diamond at the brand new Busch Staduim.

I feel great and very confident in the future direction of MVP Fitness and I am looking forward to improving more people's lives by offering more boot camps.

Thanks again! Your Ultimate Boot Camp Start-Up Kit CDs really helped me grow my business!"

I couldn't care less

Most of my friends say the same thing to me:

"Those websites of yours are SOOOOOOO cheesy."

And I agree. Long sales copy does get pretty "cheesy."

But you know what?

I could not possibly care less.

Seriously.

I could not possibly give less of a rat's you know what about it.

Know why?

They work. And they work REALLY well.

I just got back from a short trip to NJ to see my family and CT to see Ryan Lee. While I was gone I made quite a bit of money without having to do anything. I got to relax and enjoy time with family and friends thanks to my "cheesy" websites. All of my friends were at their jobs working for somebody else.

Why am I writing you about this?

If you want to grow the business of your dreams so you can live the life of your dreams you simply cannot care what people think about you.

Not one iota.

So ask yourself if there's anything that you're not doing because you're concerned what others might say or think about you. If there is I can tell you with 100% certainty that you must change your thinking.

With the risks come the rewards. Let other people worry about what others think of them. As an entrepreneur you have too many dreams and aspirations to live out to care!

Yours in prosperity,

Jim Labadie

PS- Speaking of "cheesy" sales copy, check out:

http://www.burn-the-fat-now.com

From what I'm told it's the best-selling fitness ebook of all time. The sales copy is nothing short of amazing.

http://www.burn-the-fat-now.com/

What are you going to do with all your free time?

What are you going to do with all your free time?

You know. When you're taking 4 day weekends all the time, what are you going to be doing? Where are you going to go? Who will you see? How will you get there?

You don't know?

That's perfectly fine. Not many people do.

But if that is what you want, that is what you need to start to plan for. Think about it. Meditate on it. Script it out.

Are you spending time with family? Playing golf? Heading out on your boat? Going to visit friends?

The more real you imagine and plan what you want your future to look like the faster your sub-conscious mind (and the Universe) can make it the here and now.

I'm going to the movies this afternoon. That's what I do pretty much every Friday afternoon. I LOVE movies.

And you know what?

I imagined I would spend my Friday afternoon's this way a long time ago.

Yours in prosperity,

"I just listened to your interview with Zach for the third time! The more I listen to this the more powerful it becomes. It truly changed my mindset for the rest of the day. This is a process for me or anyone doing this type of mind-shift, but the CD has me catching myself when I get negative and changing things for the positive.

"For years I struggled as a personal trainer and felt hopeless wondering how I was ever going to make more money in this business. It wasn't until I started listening to and applying the principles Jim speaks about that my business took off!

Once you "get it" and practice the laws of attracting money you will see for yourself how this truly works! Now money comes with LESS effort than ever before because I understand how I was sabotaging myself from success. It's so exciting to see my dreams come true far beyond what I'd first imagined!

3 Tips for Communicating Effectively with Editors

You may already know this. In fact, you may already be doing this.

But I missed it.

Well, I actually knew about this, but it took some time to really appreciate it as a revenue stream.

Why?

Simple really. The fitness industry publications that I write for, so I can reach my target market, don't really pay me for my material. I get to promote myself and that's why it makes sense to do it.

However...

Since there are big-time fitness magazines reaching big-time audiences you can not only promote yourself through writing articles, but you can get seriously paid to do it.

My good friend Amanda Vogel - yes, the same one who is a fellow fitness pro AND a freelance writer who contributes to, Fitness, Self, Cooking Light, Fit Pregnancy, Health and Shape - has been trying to convince me of just how much you can earn writing articles.

Again, I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner. Yes, it is, in fact, true you can get paid several thousand dollars for writing an article for a top-flight fitness magazine.

Even better?

It's not as hard or time consuming as you think! According to Amanda:

Most fitness pros - and even professional writers - think the only way to make money with articles is to continually write brand-new pieces, all on different topics, which can take a lot of time. Once you know how, you can collect multiple paychecks for the basically the same information. For example:

1- Recycling: The idea is to recycle or repurpose your material so you double or triple (or more) your earnings in half the time or less. You might create articles with different angles and target audiences but all on the same general theme. This also allows you to market yourself to a wider audience.

2- Reprints: You could sell what's called a reprint, which means you simply sell pretty much the same article to multiple magazines and get paid multiple times without having to spend time writing a new article.

3- Career Spin-offs: Writing articles often leads to other career opportunities or spin-offs. My articles have gotten me other writing assignments, paid presenting gigs, publicity in major magazines and the chance to teach a high paying two-day fitness course.

Pretty cool, huh?

If you're getting paid to write articles that means you're dealing with editors. And since that can be a little tricky Amanda has generously offered this advice to you:

3 Tips for Communicating Effectively with Editors

When an editor assigns you an article, do your part to ensure communication runs smoothly. Here are 3 strategies for communicating effectively with editors.

1- Check first about the check. If an editor doesn't mention a fee when assigning an article, it often means there isn't one. You might expect payment, but if he expects a freebie, you're out of luck. Ask about the fee before you write so there are no surprises.

2- Make second-draft changes obvious. Editors commonly email authors a second draft of their article with editorial suggestions and questions. Address these questions and incorporate changes promptly. To save editors time and frustration, always clearly mark your changes (I use UPPER CASE letters or a blue- or red-colored font). Editors don't have time to weed through a 2,000-word piece hunting for your last-minute additions or altered phrases. Also, don't rewrite sections that have already been edited unless the editor asks you to do so.

3- Ask questions. If an editor has changed something you don't agree with in the second draft of your article, politely discuss it with her. Ask why she made the change. You may discover there's a sound reason for it. Or, you might convince her to reverse the change. Just remember - most editors don't care to argue over minor word choice.

Does she know her stuff or what?

If you're serious about all this. If you really want to break into the world of paid fitness writing do yourself a HUGE favor - get a copy of Amanda's easy to follow online workshop:
'How to Write Winning Queries: Sell your health and fitness article ideas for profit and promotion'

Unless, that is, you like doing things the hard way.

I'll even give you more incentive.

A- You don't have to write for big magazines to make all her tips work. It works for small magazines and newspapers, too.

B- It comes with a personal consulation with Amanda valued at $160. But it's actually priceless. I personally know some of her customers who have been published due to her personally helping them.

DON'T Take action?

Gotten YOUR copy yet?
http://www.fitnessbusinessmindset.com

I'm not a big fan of telling people to 'take action.'

Why?

Because it can cause people to run around in circles and get nowhere. Anybody can do SOMETHING and say they are trying to grow a business.

What am I a fan of?

Telling people to take FOCUSED action. You need to be focused on the things that will BUILD your business.

But even then there are times when people don't get where they say they want to go.

Today I did a private coaching session with one of my clients where this was exactly the case. He's definitely taking action. In fact, he's taking very focused action. Problem is he's no getting anywhere.

While we were talking I heard it again. He said to me, 'I seem to like to make things as hard on myself as possible.'

And he is. He's thinking way too much and not just putting his product out there. There's a time to sh*t or get off the pot.

So what about you? Is there anything holding you back? Are you spending every last second trying to come up with the perfect product, service or marketing piece instead of just putting it out there?

And if that is the case, why do you think that is? What are you afraid of? Fear? Success? Criticism?

This client was focusing on how to make the perfect product for his market. What I told him to do was to stop researching it because he already knows the answer. His sub-conscious mind knows exactly what needs to be done.

Here is what I told him to do:

Act as if the product is already done. Say out loud how grateful he is that his market loves it and can't say enough good things about it. Affirm it over and over. Write it down as many times as he can stand.

Why?

As I wrote, his sub-conscious mind will bring forth everything he needs to create the product. He simply needs to get out of the way. He needs to take some time off and let his sub-conscious mind go to work for him.

And that can't happen when you're ALWAYS taking focused action. This is the perfect example of why the more time I take off, and the more fun I have, the more I make.

Interesting, isn't it?

Yours in prosperity,

Jim Labadie

Feeling from your future?

Brought to you by: http://www.fitnessbusinessmindset.com

I'm a very blessed person. I've been fortunate enough to work with some of the very best business coaches you can imagine. And while all of them have played a part in growing my company, nobody has had a bigger impact in changing my entire life than Debbie Happy Cohen.

She's amazing.

In fact, she's so amazing that I referred her to many other fitness professionals including:

Ryan Lee
Joe Stankowski
Todd Scott
Tony Reynolds
And more...

While that might not exactly get you excited, I think this will.

Debbie works with a lot of people and lots of entrepreneurs. And she always tells me the same thing: She absolutely loves working with fitness pros because people like you work hard, don't complain, go after your dreams, are the nicest people in the world, and are a joy to work with.

And it really is true.

But I already knew that.

Something I didn't know, that Debbie taught me, was 'feeling from my future'.

It's kind of like visualization, but not really. It's more like acting as if something you want to happen has already happened.

Now this might seem nuts to you. But since I've done this, and continue to do so, I know it works. And since I'm all about results I don't give a 'you know what' how crazy it seems.

So picture this:

I'm jumping up and down in my office shouting 'Woo hoo!' and 'YEAAHHHH!!' over and over and over. Basically I look like I've completely lost it. But what I'm doing is replicating that blissful feeling I'm going to get when I announce the new business Ryan Lee and I are launching soon. I'm jumping up and down celebrating as if our first orders are pouring in and all the hard work we've put into it has paid off just like we expected.

Get the picture?

I'm feeling from my future. As if it has already happened exactly as I want it to play out. And the more real I make it in my imagination the more real it becomes in reality.

Think I've lost it?

Well, someone else who uses this technique is my good friend and client Zach Even-Esh. Yes, the same guy who has taken the fitness industry by storm over the last two years.

He makes a fortune in passive income via marketing his fitness info products online. He only works with clients he wants to work with. Essentially, he's living the life of his dreams.

But it wasn't always this way for him. He used to worry about how he would support his wife. He used to worry how he'd have enough to support a family. He used to worry about his debt.

Then he started feeling from his future. The future he wanted.

And guess what?

He started to create it. And then some!

So two last bits of advice for you:

1- Try this for yourself. Feel from your future and see how it works to bring you what you want.

2- Get a copy of http://www.fitnessbusinessmindset.com

It's a 40 minute interview I did with Zach on exactly how he has developed the prosperity mindset responsible for his success. It's $17. You do have $17 to create the life of your dreams, right? ;-)

I do have to warn you about this CD. It's ridiculously inspiring and motivational. If you don't like that kind of thing DO NOT get a copy. If you're not a fan of having a huge smile on your face all day then avoid this CD like the plague.

What are you missing?

Opportunity is EVERYWHERE!!! It is present at all times. There is no place on earth where prosperity is not.

I knew McDonald's was trying to clean up their image so I checked out their site. This is what I found:

http://mcdonalds3.promotions.com/yourselffitness/page.do?page=splash.html
(you may need to copy and paste the above link into your browser)

How does this apply to you?

Well, what was your initial reaction when you opened that link?

Did you see the opportunity it presents to you?

Or did it merely tick you off?

Were you happy to see a fast-food chain try and do something positive?

Or did you have thoughts of anger that would cloud your judgement and cause you to miss a perfectly good chance to spread the word about fitness and build your business at the same time?

See where I'm going with this?

Affirm something like this each day so YOU don't miss any golden opportunities that are staring you right in the face.

"I easily see all the high-profit, low-hassle opportunities which are drawn to me like a magnet!"

Gratitude & Successes

This is something you need to be doing. I can't even begin to tell you how much it has helped me with not only my business, but my life.

Two words:

Gratitude
Successes

I must give Debbie Happy Cohen of www.fitnessprosperity.com credit for this. She's the one who taught me to do this in her MasterMind course.

Every night before I go to sleep I take out my journal and write down everything I accomplished that day and the things that happened that I am grateful for.

And as I told a client during a coaching session yesterday, I NEVER write anything that went wrong. I NEVER write about anything that I wish could have gone better.

Nothing of the sort.

My journals are filled with page after page of the things I am grateful for and the successes that have come my way.

How does this help you?

Well, it's pretty simple really. It gets you to focus on nothing but what is good in your life. And since what you focus on grows...

It's so simple and so powerful. If you don't do this already, or something similar, get right on it!

Yours in prosperity,

Jim Labadie

PS- Two major announcements:

1- I'll be officially launching this CD later this week, but as a Labadie Unleashed subscriber you get first notice. I interviewed Zach Even-Esh last week and we talked for 40 minutes about the Prosperity Mindset he has developed. If I've ever helped you in any way, shape or form, believe me when I tell you you need to grab a copy.

This is just the order link. The site will be up later. If you trust me then shell out the ridiculously low amount of $17 and discover the Fitness Business Mindset you need for optimal succcess.

http://tinyurl.com/jl5tg

Oh, I had Alwyn Cosgrove listen to it and here's what he thought about it:

"Before success in any field, there has to be a mindset shift. Nothing will happen until that mindset shift occurs. It's that simple. The first step is changing everything you have been brainwashed to believe, and getting rid of everything that you think you are supposed to. Whether you want to call it "personal power", "positive thinking" or "conscious creation" changing your circumstances, your outcomes or changing your 'success' starts 100% with changing your mindset.

I can give you an outline - a step by step daily guide of the exact action plan to take to be the most successful fitness professional in the World. You can follow it to the letter. But unless you make the mindset paradigm shift it will be completely worthless material".

Having played a small role in Zach's growth, it's exciting to see that he's completely made that shift. He's paying it forward."

Again, the $17 order link is: http://tinyurl.com/jl5tg


2- Ryan Lee is moving to Jupiter, FL this summer so we can launch our new business together from the same office. Yes, that means I'll be moving there from Tampa.

Hold onto your hats. It's going to be a wild ride!

Case Study: From Trainer to Entrepreneur

What do you want out of life?

Are you like my friend and customer Heather Picken of FeelingLikeaMillion.com?

She wanted much more out of her life than being the 'average' trainer, so she decided to do something about it.

Now don't get me wrong about the 'average' trainer.

1- She's great at what she does and there's nothing average about the service she provides.
2- If you like doing the standard one-on-one sessions hour after hour and day after day and you're extremely happy with your life then that is cool with me. If you're happy, I'm happy.

But chances are you don't read the Fitness Goldmine Report because you want to be average. Far from it. My readers are after greatness!

Anyway, enough covering my butt.

What I want to do is tell you about how Heather has created the life she wants for herself. And I want you to understand it's not nearly as difficult as the naysayers out there would lead you to believe.

Is it easy?

No. I'm not going to bullsh*t you. There's some work involved.

Is it really hard?

No. It's putting in some effort doing what you love.

Is there some complicated formula to follow?

No. It really is simple. If you have a dream, a heart and desire you can consider it done.

Here's what Heather's week looks like:

3 Fitness Boot Camps held on Tuesdays and Thursdays
1 weekly education class on nutrition and fitness mindset on Monday nights
The rest of the time she works ON her business, especially information products
Fridays and weekends off to do whatever she wants

Not too shabby, right? It sure beats the hell out of working out 8 clients in a row one-on-one. Believe me, I've been there. I know all about it. I know the grind. I love helping people, but it got to be too much. But I digress.

So how can you duplicate her success?

Well, you can start by firing the clients you least like working with. That will free up some time.
Then you can start to make a whole heck of a lot more per hour by running your own Boot Camps. Like she does.

Why not create an educational course like she has and turn it into a product you can sell over and over for $99? Like she does.

She created a healthy recipe book that she sells both as a physical version at speaking engagements and as a digital ebook via Clickbank.com.

Are you telling me you couldn't do that?

The other thing Heather has done so brilliantly is create a real strong niche for herself. She only works with women over 30. Her class is ONLY for women over 30. Her Boot Camp is ONLY for women over 30. Her products are meant for women over 30.

Her newsletter aims directly at their hearts. Not their wallet, but their heart. She speaks to them. She knows them. She knows what keeps them up at night. She knows the isssues they have. She knows what inspires them. She knows the issues they have with their bodies. She resonates with them.

And you know what?

They love her for it.

It's a textbook case study on how to go from the 'average' trainer to a fitness entrepreneur.
If I've written it once, I've written it a million times. It's all there for the taking, jim. All's it takes is your dream, your heart and your desire.

Well, that and the right tools. Heather let Ryan Lee and I teach her the keys to running a successful info-product business before she got started. She made the investment in our http://www.fitnessinfomistakes.com/ program so she hit the ground running.

Oh, and I also want to make another point how easy it is to get started making good coin selling products. If you have a newsletter list you can sell Heather's product and make a strong commission from it. Find out how here:

PS - How can avoiding all my mistakes help you?

'Hi Jim:
Starting fresh in this industry, I get tons of offers to buy this and buy that to market my product. Marketing programs cost a fortune and don't tell you how limited their service is. Thanks to Jim sharing his 'mistakes', I can stay on a shoestring budget and build at my pace without digging holes.

These CDs told me the FACTS about running my own information products site and business. That alone could save me over $5000 in start-up costs and another $1200 in coaching fees. That's over $6000 that I can use for other costs. This will be my desk reference for a long time.'
