Looking back is always perfect vision. It’s easy to look at where we have been and realize what choices we should have made or paths we should have taken.

It’s easy to miss the lessons of life that God is teaching us through constant challenges. Within the context of those challenges, we find valuable life lessons that must be learned.

So do you show up daily? Do you do your best for this day? Today is all you have, so let us DREAM BIG, TAKE ACTION and FOLLOW UP and FOLLOW THROUGH.

What is your biggest challenge? Mine is connecting to people. Being a driver, I have drive days that keep me driving all day and part of the night. I don’t get the opportunities as often as I like for my phone calls, texts and emails. I will do my best today. I will show up. I will make those calls.

Building a business is really a 2-5 year plan. You will have high’s and low’s. I see through observation of my leaders, they are consistent in all they do.

Here is a great interview with Rob Gehring, Hosted by Lisa M Gentile. Rob describes his daily routine. Click here to watch the video.

Describe your daily habits. What do you start with, and where do you end your day?

I start with my blog, Phone calls are next, with texts and emails second. I jump on the advertising wagon, shooting those arrows. I read and comment on different post, upvoting at every opportunity.

As we build our following, remember it’s all about PEOPLE. Be kind, lead with passion, love with a grateful spirit. Be willing to give your ALL. The reason I’m here is my mentors have shown such love, passion, and commitment to me. For that, I’m eternally grateful.

How To Get The Right People To Open Your Email

Email Us, Email, Us, Web, Internet

Welcome Saturday Truckerettes, This Is Your Host, Michael The Traveling Trucker.

I’ve been studying lately how to get the right people to open my emails. I have to say some of the info was eye opening and thought provoking.

Let me ask this question, What is your open rate? When you track and split test, what are your results?

The average email open rate is 21.33 percent. Keeping track of your results is vital. This shows what works and what doesn’t. If you don’t belong to Hits Connect, click here. This is a great site for tracking your results.

To get people to open your email, start with a benefit: People feel good when they know they will benefit from you, It will give people the incentive to open your email. Say something like: How to triple your social media following.

Email, Newsletter, Marketing, Online

When you create CURIOSITY, people are really tempted to open your email. Write something like: What Does reading have to do with success or what to do if some falls down?

USE NUMBERS: Users understand what’s in store for them when they click an article. It’s about clarity, helping them to manage their expectations. Example, Why 90% of marketers are doing it wrong?

Borrow Credibility: People love to know what well-known people think, give advice, or talk about how to solve a problem.

HERE IS A COOL SITE I FOUND:

The #1 Free Headline Analyzer

Write Headlines That Drive Traffic, Shares, And Search Results

https://coschedule.com/headline-analyzer

Here are some things to meditate on:

Test Different Email Subjects, Testing Different Times and Days Of Send, Testing Different Email Frequencies, Testing Different Sender Emails, Testing Different Email First Lines.

Tease the value and benefits of opening and reading the rest of the email. Make them fearful of missing out, make it impossible for them to resist the urge to delve a little further.

In closing, Will you share your secret email headlines with me? What your open rates are? I can always use all the help I can get. Leave me a comment now. I will respond back, to thank you.

OPEN OPEN OPEN

TOUGH LOVE

I love you, I encourage you, I respect you, I challenge you. I don’t understand you. This is your favorite freight relocation engineer, Michael The Traveling Trucker.

You’re sitting at home, in front of your computer. You have reached a point where you want to earn some additional income. You would love some relief from the bills and not having enough of the daily things in life. You have penny pitched enough. So begins your delve into internet marketing. You look around, not sure what you are looking for. You see an ad like this: So you click, the click here now button.

Then it takes you to the New Member Registration page. Some fill it out while others who are skeptical go right on by. Some forms ask for your name, email, and phone number. At the bottom of the form, it says, if you don’t want to leave a number, place the number 5 in the box. This is where I don’t understand, why do people put a fake number in? If you don’t want the call back place the number 5 in the box. We respect your privacy. As someone building a business, this gives me false hope. When I see a number, I call it, then you hear, this phone number is no longer in service, mailbox full can’t except any new messages, or my favorite error 57, which means no number exists.

Building Blocks- Some Assembly Required

A BIG THANK YOU

Hello Everyone, This is your gear jamming, CB talking, Load moving, Michael The Traveling Trucker. What a joy it has been to build my online business. I say thank you to a number of people Janet, Blain, Jon, Rob, and all the members from all these groups, who comment on my blogs. These folks have guided me to expand my horizon, challenged me to learn, encouraged me to show up daily. All these people are instructing me on their tricks of the trade.

I’m learning about building a resource page. It was said “K.I.S.S”. Kept It Simple Silly. I have had to visit other sites to determine what to put on my resource page to make it look right, plus putting links to each picture. For some, this is childs play. I like it but a little slow getting it done.

I was asked if I checked my CTRs and ROIs on my advertising. I said the money was a little tight for the purchase of a solo ad. I would have to do some side work. Today I went to Hits Connect and the results weren’t that good. I will have to adjust how I’m doing my rotators and campaigns. At this point, I haven’t got a good grasp on keeping up with CTR and ROI’s.

Solo ads are fun. Looking at all the sellers at Udimi. I was taught early what to look for and to whom to stay away from.

From Eliana over at CTP:

Staying the course, from driving to the internet definitely has it’s challenges. I have to make myself get things done, when the opportunity presents it’s self.

Be grateful For What You Have

ABUNDANCE

Load up my semi-trailer with a load, let me roll down the road. I’m talking 15 thousand pounds of mushrooms to my delivery in Ga. Now we think, wow this is abundance, but this will be gone in one day. Sent to stores all over the south for you to buy. Hello and welcome, I’m Michael The Traveling Trucker. Today I want to share a greek word with you:” PERISSEUO” and it means to ” furnish one so richly that he has abundance and abounds with overflow.

Mention: https://blog.markgrowth.com/abundance-mindset-creating-abundance-in-your-business-d67a7c5a4ca

Here is a very simple question. When you think about your business do you have an abundance mindset? Do you believe that you can create abundance in your home business? The one thing most entrepreneurs are least prepared for when they start a home business career is how to prepare their mindset regarding money! Your business is all about your abundance mindset. Do whatever is necessary today to develop your employee mindset into an entrepreneur mindset. Define what limiting beliefs you struggle with and change them into abundant money beliefs.

Pie, Thanksgiving, Thanks, Gratitude

Step into the “abundance mindset” and understand your value isn’t based on you personally, but instead, based on how much your customer learns and takes away from your products and services. Bring your “A Game” and you can charge any amount that is in-line with the quality of your products.

My mindset has changed over time from, If only someone will buy what I have to My business is moving so fast with orders. People are trusting me at my word. I offer solutions to your problems. I help take the pressure off by offering you simple step by step instruction on building your business to 6 figures and beyond. What do you see? Is it lack or way more than enough that you have to give some away? A leader with an abundance mindset knows that there is enough to go around for everyone. They tend to move forward in life with fulfillment and confidence in what they have and what they’re capable of having because they believe in the power to create what they want. When people work toward developing an abundance mindset, they become empowered leaders who see everything as an opportunity instead of a challenge or defeat.

Grapes, Abundance, Vineyard, Fruit

Abundance-minded leaders invest in themselves and their teams. They see the value in personal development and choose to provide opportunities for growth as much as possible. The growth they promote isn’t limited to job-related skill training. It extends to areas of emotional and mental health as well. Because of this, team members can develop a sense of worth. Invest in books, audio, video, and whatever takes you to the next level in life.

THE GIFT OF GAB

This is for those who don’t have a clear verbal communication style. This is your trucker host, Michael The Traveling Trucker. So what exactly is the gift of gab? How you ever come across someone while speaking to them, you are mesmerized, holding on to every word?

Mention:https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/gift-of-the-gab

The ability to speak easily and confidently in a way that makes people want to listen to you and believe you.

Rebecca Stamer does a great video, click here to watch.

The ability to speak to others in a self-assured, persuasive manner. Talent for verbal fluency. If someone has the gift of the gab, they are able to speak confidently, clearly,  in a persuasive way.

Woman, People, Coffee, Portrait
Use The Phone Daily

This is from Rod Gehring’s script: you can tweak it to fit who you are.

It is important to understand the importance of having a “real” conversation with a prospect. This also saves you time in qualifying your list and only talking to people who are serious and ready. Be sure they indicate at least 50.00 available to get started now; otherwise I advise against you calling unless you want the practice. When I capture a lead, I generally ask for their phone number along with first name and email address. Then, I send the following text which is called “The Magic Text”. Hey {Prospect Name}, Rob here, your {Company Name} sponsor. Go to {Your Facebook Profile} and send me a friend request so I can have you schedule with me and we can get you earning ASAP, ok?

Check out Rob Gehrings video on Scripts. Click here.

This is a good qualifier as I may be able to connect with them on Facebook to have them set an appointment with me. If they are unresponsive, then we move to a phone call where we can interview them directly.

People Talking, Perception, Reality

One of the greatest lessons on talking to people is to do it often, every day on phone calls. This will give you the confidence you need to carry on a conversation without feeling like you are lost or don’t know what you’re talking about. It’s all about talking to a friend, best friend, or loved one. It should be that natural when talking to people about your business. Let yourself flow, asking questions, and waiting for people to respond. Then ask more questions, feeling them out to see where best to help them.

If you want a master Gabber- Check out Jon Olson from Click Track Profit. In my opinion, Jon is very smooth, eloquent, fluid in speech, and gets his point across that’s easy to follow.

I work hand in hand with Janet Legere, owner of CLB Learning. She makes talking a true art form. These people have perfected, speaking to others, guiding them, and helping them become a success. The more time you spend talking with people, you will understand the art of GAB. YOU will have the ability to SPEAK EASILY and CONFIDENTLY in a way that makes people want to listen to YOU and believe YOU.

TALK LIKE YOU MEAN IT, SAY IT WITH PASSION.

Mentors and Business Coaches

What a day to be alive. WELCOME. My name is Michael Lipsey, better known as Michael The Traveling Trucker. Today is exciting for me as I get the opportunity to focus on MENTORS and BUSINESS COACHES.

Mention: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/mentor

Definition: a trusted counselor or guide.

We acquired “mentor” from the literature of ancient Greece. In Homer’s epic The Odyssey, Odysseus was away from home fighting and journeying for 20 years. During that time, Telemachus, the son he left as a babe in arms, grew up under the supervision of Mentor, an old and trusted friend. When the goddess Athena decided it was time to complete the education of young Telemachus, she visited him disguised as Mentor and they set out together to learn about his father. Today, we use the word mentor for anyone who is a positive, guiding influence in another (usually younger) person’s life.

Hand, Finger, Touch, Knowledge

What makes a mentor or business coach? Serving as a mentor brings many challenges and rewards, with the best mentors working to shape their mentees into leaders, rather than just good followers. If done well, the long-term impact of mentoring can offer life- and career-changing benefits to both parties.

My Mentors are Janet Legere- Owner of CLB Learning.

Rob Gehring- Owner Of TL2Ivm and Massive Success Funnel.

Both Janet and Rob have given me their personal one on one time. Each has more than 20 years of online marketing experience. They have helped thousands attain a level of success because everyone is different with different needs. Both have a vast video training collection for easy access to training, that you can go through at your own pace. They help with social media, follow-ups, scripts to speak to your prospects.

While building CLB, many questions have arisen that needed attention. Janet was always available to point me in the right direction. Janet does a weekly webinar every Thursday at 12 noon EST. Come join us and see what I see. There is valuable information each week for building your business, plus it recorded so you can go back over it, time after time. Janet has a positive outlook on life. A big smile and a sense of humor. She is an author, helping others to change their mindset to walk on the positive side more and more.

Teacher, Mentor, Coach, Coaching

Rob Gehring is a friend first to me. I began working with Rob years back but drifted away. I saw I was a member of TL2Ivm but forgot what it was. I ventured back to see what it was. Rob has a great system, I upgraded to full access to the system. $500.00 dollar commissions are exciting to see coming in. Rob puts the needs of his team 1st, always pointing to the next level. Rob has a calendar on his page that you can book and one on one weekly coaching call. Rob gives insight and strategies for taking your business to the next level. Rob also has a weekly webinar on Wednesday nights at 8 pm EST. Rob has a 7 step training for you to go through when you join TL2Ivm. This helps you set everything up, step by simple step.

Deeds and Titles

Welcome once again to Michael the Traveling Truckers Adventure. Today I give you TWO words. DEEDS–TITLES.

I found DEEDS a truly profound word. Deed meaning- something that is carried out, and act or action. Do you see where I’m going? Building YOUR business.

Title meaning- an identifying name. Written work. An appellation of dignity, honor, distinction, or preeminence attached to a person or family. Make your title one of distinction. Mine is ” Michael the Traveling Trucker”. I love what I do. Traveling around the country, seeing new sites, then blogging about them.

It all starts with a DREAM. That’s how I became, “Michael The Traveling Trucker”. For us lucky enough, who live in the USA, we might get a chance to go to Disney-either in Florida or California.

It could cost us thousands of dollars to be entertained. Yes, we see amazing things all around us.

CROSS OVER TO THE OTHER SIDE

I pulled my rig over to the side of the road. This Is Michael The Traveling Trucker. I looked out across the wide river. There were houses, ball fields, playgrounds, picnic tables. I could only see these things through my binoculars.

What I really wanted, was to be where the people were. It looked inviting, fun and a great place to rest. My problem was my semi and trailer. I couldn’t take them there, dang it. So how did I get to the other side?

Bench, Bridge, Structure, Metal, Steel

In business, I see people sitting on the sidelines, looking through the binoculars. They want to be with the people but don’t know how to get there.

Let’s be honest, it takes time to build a business. Rome wasn’t built in a day. People want instant riches, the problem with that is, people are not disciplined with instant money. They spent it and then it’s gone forever. Taking time to built your business, you earn a little, then reinvest, and repeat. Before you know it you have built a nice nest egg. You have learned to be a wise Stewart. You have counted the cost and paid the price, over and over to gain your success.
