    How to Work Less and Make More w/ James Schramko!

    How to Work Less and Make More w/ James Schramko!

    With online business, you can build the life that you want! You can set your own hours, work from wherever you want, and make six or even seven figures in the process! James Schramko will show us how!

    In this episode, you’ll learn:

    • The 3 pillars of an online membership
    • How memberships are like a supermarket
    • How to work less and make more

    James Schramko is one of my own personal membership mentors. In this interview we discuss the makings of a multi-million dollar membership site, using affiliate marketing to make more membership sales, free trials, and how to make content areas your members will love.

    In James’ words, the idea of a membership is you want to be paid by a lot of people instead of one person.

    It is totally possible to be like James and have 6-figure months, every single month. he has found that memberships are by far the most stable business model!

    We have had people say, ‘oh, don’t you want to know you have a stable job rather than worrying about this online stuff?” No! Here’s why:

    The most stable job in America is a teacher with tenure. We saw an issue with this first hand. We had tenure, but voters in the school district we were in voted to consolidate the high school, which reset tenure so that they could hire and fire however they wanted, to have less people.

    There is literally no better security than doing it yourself. And, leading dozens or hundreds of people every month. In essence, no longer relying on the lies being told by society about job security.

    All it takes is one employer not handling finances properly for you to lose a job, when you rely on other people. Anywhere you want to pull statistics from, the majority of businesses fail.

    In a normal job, you have a single point of failure, which is something we want to avoid at all costs!
