Joe Thyne of Century 21 Team Wheatley in Harker Heights, TX is one of my active agent students who is just finishing up two of my recent telecourses. Here is how he took what he learned and put it into powerful practice.

Hi Vickie,

I have been very busy since we last talked and I wanted to give you an update of what has happened. I have hired Cheryl Allin as my first VA, I plan on having her do all my internet positioning as well as set up my web sites. I currently have her doing just that. It is still under construction, but you can see the layout so far and can definitely feel the military presence. I am thrilled with the talent she shows in putting together what I want. In case I did not tell you my target market is first-time Veteran buyers. You can view the site at several different URLs which include: VABuyer.com, CptAction.com, CptJoeAction.com, CaptainJoeAction.com, JoeAction.com, and 2 or 3 others I can not think of right now. I wanted all these addresses to ensure no one piggy backs off me and to ensure that any way it was spelled, the IEC could find the site.

I have also had an interview with PJ Babcock, and to my surprise and delight I have been accepted as a client with REVA Teams. That was an absolute shocker based on what we had heard in the teleclass and in the classes in Las Vegas. I am so eager to start this whole process and I really appreciate Michael and you for this amazing eye opener. When I tell people here in Texas that my assistant is in Washington they look at me like I am insane. If they only knew! I have expanded my goals and focused on the process of reaching them.

I am also including a draft of Cpt Joe Action so you can see the avatar which will be a key factor on my site as well as a new and unique way to advertise in magazines and on billboards. I had Cheryl locate the artist on elance and coordinate the caricature. Let me know if Cpt Action looks like me.

Thanks,

Joe

Awesome job Joe! Joe recently attended my 8 week eProductivity™ Telecourse which helped him find and hire his first VA. He also attended my 10 week CLICKS to CLOSES™ Telecourse which helped him pick his target market (in this case first time military buyers —now that is targeting!) and come up with some ideas for his branding (i.e. Captain Joe Action). What is so cool here is that Joe is doing exactly what he was taught to do and is already seeing results (especially after hiring his first VA). In fact, just go to his (currently under construction) site at http://www.vabuyer.com and ask yourself "if I were a first time military buyer, how would I respond to this Website?"  You will instantly see the power of his well-planned targeting and branding!

The power of these live sessions cannot be overstated. In the CLICKS to CLOSES™ Telecourse I take you step by step through the process of choosing a target market and becoming the “King” or “Queen” of that target market using both e-mail and the Web. Then in the eProductivity™ Telecourse you learn how to find, evaluate, hire and work powerfully with VAs that will implement your new Web strategies. This way, both courses support each other. Also, everyone on the calls are very supportive especially since some of the best ideas came from other callers.

Because Joe is our success story of the month, he will receive a free 1 year subscription to IMPREV --a US$199 value! (He already has all my other books!)

Remember, even if your story isn't chosen you still win because you get to see how other top performers do it. Besides, you can always try again!
