I think all of us are really guilty of that familiarity thing.
We think because we hear it, and see it and talk about it all the time, the rest of the world . . .
Understands it and has connected the dots and;
Is sick of hearing about it because everyone is saying that but . . .
More often than not we miss golden opportunities.
Such was almost the case with something I had been tripping over that resulted in $20,000 in extra revenue in 14 days!
Here’s What Happened . . .
As someone who takes credit cards as payment for my online courses, I get emails about programs PayPal is offering.
One of them, has been in place for a while and they just recently changed the name of it.
It’s simply an option for people to buy now and pay later.
Truth be told, I had stumbled across this so many times that I just didn’t pay it any mind; until I decided to educate my audience on it.
All I did was put the following instructions beneath the payment options for this online course.

I noticed an immediate increase in sales and I received emails from about 15 people telling me they just signed up and thanking me for helping them make it happen.
Did you catch that last part? They thanked ME and meanwhile, I’m selling more courses. Gotta love capitalism!
Then there was this crazy email where someone said they still couldn’t afford it but had passed the payment info along to her boss.
Next thing you know, her boss agreed to fly me out and deliver a customized version of my online course.
All because I was willing to put myself in my customer’s shoes!
