these videos we actually send you an email that's pretty cool stuff on this particular channel I teach you how to sell stuff online why well because I've been doing it since 2009 I've been selling digital products and physical products and I've learned a lot in all those years as a matter of fact we have our own branded products on thousands of websites including Walmart okay so we can teach you how to start running grow your business on this channel stay tuned for all that now let's jump in to this training but before I do I want to hear your comments have you set targets in the past is it something you've already done or maybe you've missed some put your comments below I want to hear that and to help you out a little bit more and to reward you for watching this video in the comment section below I have put a link in that link will take you to a ninety seven dollar course to get for free zero you can get it for zero that's really good so make sure you click on that link now let's jump in to finding those targets and hitting them now setting business goals in a corporate setting is a common practice it's something you know I did for years I was in the automotive industry and I was involved in the sales and and we always had to set different types of goals and different type of projections that type of thing and it was for many reasons it was for bonuses it was to keep people motivated and it kind of gave them an idea of what was expected okay if you don't set these goals for yourself in your business you know what are you expecting of yourself as I sit right now there's a ring light right in front of me and there's a goal that is on the ring light so I have to look at it the whole time so post these goals in different places too once you figure them out now if you don't have experience in the corporate world or if you don't have experience in a business doing sales or something like that you may have a hard time setting these goals and that's why I did this video number one define specific goals okay so if you're trying to hit a particular sales number you're more likely to hit that sales number if you say what the sales number is you can't say we want to sell more next month I mean that's great but how much is more a dollar is more right ten thousand dollars is more so what you want to do is you want to say specifics you want to say I want to earn fifty thousand dollars a month that is my goal that's what I want to do that way you know when you got there and when you get there you can move the goal post right you can go for sixty thousand seventy thousand whatever it is and you don't have to start that high you know maybe your goal is just to make a hundred dollars this month online and once you make that hundred dollars maybe you move it to a thousand five thousand ten thousand but make it specific number two is commit to your goals now what I mean by commit is you don't give up okay you don't quit till you get there you don't quit you don't quit this is probably ninety nine percent of the failures online is people quitting they probably would have really succeeded if they just not stopped I know in the beginning I started selling cell phone cases and I didn't do well okay I wasn't making money and I kept doing it anyhow and I kept doing it because I wanted to figure out how to sell stuff online now I ultimately quit selling cell phone cases but I didn't quit selling online what that did was that taught me how to sell stuff online I uncovered stuff I learned how to post products online I learned how to write descriptions I learned how to price things I learned how to ship things out I learned from all of this product that I sold that I didn't make money on but it led me to the next product which was camping goods which led me to the next product which was survival food from another company which led me to another product which was my own brand of survival food and I still have that to this day and it all started with cell phone cases so my point to you is don't quit trying to make money online you may have to switch products a couple times you have to switch platforms where you're selling it but don't quit number three make your goals you're not going to like this public that's right tell your friends and family what you're going to do tell them that you're going to sell something online that you're going to make $10,000 a month or whatever and then accept that crazy look that they're going to give you which they will because they haven't done it but the point is if you make these things public people are going to be watching you they're going to be putting a little pressure on you when you said you're going to do this or you're really going to do it when you have those people and when you have those expectations it tends to keep you in the game longer and it tends to make you do things you wouldn't normally do so that you can achieve the goal so yeah make them public number four is set a deadline now the deadline could be a week a month a year whatever it is but you're not going to be able to achieve that goal or hit that target unless you have a deadline now most people don't want to do a deadline they just don't why because they think what if I don't hit it I'll look bad you could that could happen but at least if you set that deadline it's going to motivate you to work that much harder to actually hit it and you will start hitting some of your deadlines you will do that okay I know I think about different courses I've done and different products I've sold and you know we've hit some really cool things so we did one day we did a hundred thousand dollars a day in survival food that was great we don't do that a day right now but we hit that and that was a pretty cool goal my goal also was to sell a certain amount of courses one click bank and we hit that goal and that's pretty exciting and then my wife does dog training and her goal was to have people sign up for a continuity course and she hit that goal and her goal was to write a book and she hit that goal and all these little goals that you hit along the way they build confidence and as they build confidence you're going to be more likely to set more goals and achieve more things number six stop and reward yourself yeah I mean if you hit one of your goals reward yourself go on a trip go out to dinner stop and talk about it do a video on it you know I see people all the time on YouTube when they hit a thousand subscribers or 10,000 or whatever it is they do a video on it they celebrate that goal and that target being hit so it's okay to stop and celebrate just don't stop too long okay we want a short time celebration and a long time work but we do want to celebrate all those little goals and targets that we hit now at this point you have the key tools that you can use to set targets and hit your goal I want to talk about a man I heard speak many years ago this is going back into oh my gosh I hate to admit at the 80s but his name was Lou Holtz Lou Holtz story was really pretty interesting Lou Holtz was the coach for the 1988 Notre Dame team that went 12 and zero with a victory in the fiesta ball and was the consensus national champion Holtz is the only college football coach to lead six different programs to bowl games and the only coach to guide four different programs to the final top 20 rankings now Lou Holtz set goals and that's the one thing he talked about in the speech where I heard it he talked about goals he talked about targets he talked about playing fair and you don't have to cheat your way to the top you don't have to lie your way to the top you don't have to do any of those things if you just work hard and provide good content good products whatever it is you're doing you can hit a lot of these goals and you can achieve it now I've gone through a lot of tools in this video and I'm curious which ones do you think will work for you which ones do you think are going to help you hit your goals and set your targets that's really important I want to hear that and if you think about how important this is let's say and I did this a few years ago I had to drive from Virginia to California and my goal was to get to California right but I needed a target okay I had to have a roadmap how to get there I didn't just get in the car and say I'm going to drive until I get there because that's how a lot of people live their lives they say well you know my goal is to have a great youtube channel you know my goal is to sell a lot of stuff online but they never really set up the target for it they don't they don't plan anything out like we're building our youtube channel and I know that I have to do a certain number of videos they have to be a certain length and I have to devote a day to doing those videos I batch them out I do them all in one day so if you see some of my videos I have the same shirt on it's because we filmed all those videos the same exact day but I devote that day to doing that and I know if I upload enough of them and I do enough of them that you guys are going to watch them and I have enough subscribers and don't forget you've got to subscribe do that right now hit that subscribe button down there and don't forget turn on notifications anyhow I know if I do that then I'm going to reach my goal and I have certain goals for the channel I have certain goals and sales and also I want to give you that course don't forget about that it's a $97 e-commerce course and you can find the link below there click on that that's really important grab that course it's free you don't need a credit card you don't need you know pay anything you just click on it and learn so that's my video on setting goals and hitting your targets now I want you to put in the comment section what have you tried to do what have you tried that work or there's certain things that motivate you because I find there's certain things that motivate me okay when I'm trying to hit a goal and maybe it's subscribers maybe it's sales whatever it is but look at your numbers I know I did a training last night a master class and I didn't have as many people on it that I wanted but we sold you know a decent amount of products and what I did was I looked at how many we sold versus the number of people and that motivated me I said well we got a pretty high percentage of people that actually bought this product so we did good so you want to look at all those areas that can motivate you a little bit maybe it's you know your watch time on your channel maybe it's the number of subscribers you've gained but look at those things and if you're not getting the results you want change up what you're doing that's it because it's all doable whatever you want to sell whatever you want to do online it's all doable there's probably somebody out there that already did it look at those people it'll motivate you to get going I appreciate you watching this video and I'll see you in the next one hey thanks for watching my video don't forget to subscribe to my channel and click that little bell right there so you
