Twitter is an obnoxious place to hear people complain. But that’s where people go to gripe in 140 character bursts.
Not my spot to spend much time. I got work to do.
Yet I still follow writers like me (and arguably more talented) who sob about being broke and hungry because they’re waiting on a paycheck from a client or publication.
So I reach out to see how they’re doing, offer them a technique to flip the script so they never have to be sad and miserable like this ever again.
They dismiss me every single time. “This is the industry, it’ll never change” boohoo. Some people like to quit before they dare try.
Not me.
Because I work in that same “never-changing” industry and I get paid before I write a single sentence.
Your favorite critically acclaimed writers do it.
So do top consultants and coaches who sell intangible products.
I do it every consult.
And now you too.
Because there’s one thing ANYONE can do to make sure they’re paid upfront in full by a client they’ve yet to do work for.
And it’s so simple that I explain it in 4 sentences in TOP OF MIND.
It’s #12 of my list of ways to command god-like attention that people follow your lead without question.
Practically works 100% of the time. I say practically because you have to do it to see results.
Don’t practice it, you’ll get paid on delivery not on proposal.
New issue ships tomorrow. Click here to be on the boat and start getting paid BEFORE you do a single bit of work.
Be well,
Max!
