Hey, hey, what’s going on Wednesday 11 a.m. How’s everybody doing?

0:14

I see submissions are picking up, which is good.

0:23

This is great. Good morning, guy. Hey, Doug. What’s up, buddy?

0:34

We’re going to let a bunch of people jump in and we’ll get started.

0:45

If you haven’t contacted each and every single one of your customers.

0:50

So, Kevin. You need to do so.

0:53

Whether you brought them in through cold email or you know, I’m personally or whatever you reach out to them If if if it trust me with what we got coming if you want to have a relationship with these businesses you want it now Because we’re about the parlay, you know the parlay is I had a team 10 10 game parlay last week Total sucker bet.

1:23

I was really just joking around near impossible to ever happen.

1:33

I did it on a straight money line.

1:35

Most people, I’ve tried it with 10-point teasers, you can’t even hit them.

1:39

I did it with a straight money line.

1:40

It didn’t pay that well, but it paid pretty good.

1:44

I didn’t bet that much.

1:46

I was really just trying to get some action while watching basketball.

1:56

Hey Tina, good to see you.

1:58

But reach out to your customer.

2:00

Because we’re about to, and you’ll see it coming up, I can’t talk too much about it because I’m limited on what all I’ve been told myself, but I know all the players involved and it’s gonna be strong.

2:14

But you’re gonna wanna have a relationship with your businesses 1000% for sure.

2:19

You’re gonna get excited and you see what I’m talking about.

2:25

Easy sell recurring, that’s all I gotta say.

2:31

The secret to riches, easy offers and pay me recurring.

2:36

occurring. Amen. Yeah, right. I’m with you, Kevin.

2:54

One day if we meet in person, I’ll tell you some stories about that.

2:58

I met a lady that was doing it way before that even existed. Awesome, Carl.

3:11

Jaleesa, Nicole, do y’all have anything that you want to ask Today I’m kind of out of stuff to talk about, but, uh, yes.

3:22

It’s so, um, I’ve gotten a few support tickets this morning.

3:26

Um, they are rolling out a new integration from our other system hub spot.

3:32

Um, so you may see some wonky, um, comments, uh, in the portal, but, uh, they’re just testing it, so just disregard it is not fully rolled out.

3:44

They’re just testing the integration.

3:58

Did anyone have any questions?

4:00

Any questions for me?

4:05

I see Diane said, is there any last minute advice for you?

4:09

The only advice I can give you is to do it.

4:12

It’s easy.

4:13

I get stuck on analysis paralysis at times.

4:17

Just make sure you’re out there swinging the bat.

4:18

If you ain’t swinging the bat, you’re never gonna get a hit.

4:20

That’s a fact.

4:39

Well, buddy, John Schofield from Jackson, Tennessee.

4:42

He was the weatherman there, but I don’t know why, but he feels that he has to text me everything that he barbecues.

4:50

What were you gonna say, Julissa?

4:53

I was gonna say Christopher says, confirming we only have five more days till the client can come through our system.

5:04

I think he’s talking about signing people for the ERTC.

5:08

It’s the 31st, the official date.

5:12

I think they’re gonna take deals up to the 15th, honest with you. But I mean I wouldn’t promise that they could get processed that quick.

5:22

I would say the 31st just to create some scarcity.

5:27

Yeah we want to make sure it’ll probably be April 7th after that and then then it’s done.

5:35

We’re not looking to turn any deal down, let’s say that.

5:45

No Kevin, this won’t be the last training call.

6:06

Hey, I can, um, we’re, we have some commissions that will be going out today.

6:15

Nice. Yeah, we have, um, a couple, one for guy, Darrell Patterson.

6:24

Um, we have one for Joe Reinhart, Sean B.

6:30

Uh, Krishna, yes. Syd Michael, yes. I would always save the best for the last day. All right, tell me that didn’t lighten up your day a little bit. Guy, do you not feel a little bit better, a little bit more fit, a little healthier now hearing that? Did the sun just brighten up just a little bit? Didn’t it? I know, man. Yeah, right, Carl. No bullshit. The gentleman’s casino. The stock market crypto right now this year we’re in the bull market cycle, so I don’t know about y’all but I live like a hobbit during every four years. All I do is stick money into my exchanges. As I mentioned last time the CEO had indicated. Yeah, I mean you can’t. I mean for lack of a better term, there’s a saying in the car business, you can’t close stupid, right?

8:07

Like if, I mean, it makes total sense, but yet, you know, they try and, you know, you gotta realize, like, and these are true numbers and everybody will deny it and, you know, whatever, but 65% of 1099s are small businesses don’t even file proper taxes.

8:27

That’s a fact.

8:28

So when you have a CFO that’s, and let me tell you the question real quick.

8:32

Not to telling you Chris but he’s saying that a CFO keeps saying no we’re not qualified no we’re not qualified the CEO keeps saying push it push it push it when the CFO just says no right a lot of times that CFO don’t want to expose maybe where they’re at as a business or where he’s at as far as it happens right Julia says grace said April 5th okay yeah you don’t want to look stupid Exactly Doug Starks, but you got to realize that so sometimes when you just you know, nothing you can say ever works out Me and I want to say Diana Had a deal like that too with a hospital where the CEOs were like, let’s go We got a new CFO.

9:29

We’re ready to go. The last one didn’t want to do anything and then the next one wanted to turn it down. You know awesome Nancy Never quit Should I stop trying to get deals after March 31st?

9:51

I wouldn’t. I’m not going to take it to the very last day.

9:56

I mean, I would use March 31st as a scarcity play, and then I would use April 7th as a scarcity play.

10:02

And then, you know, we’ve worked too hard for three, four years now to let it go.

10:09

I mean, if you got anything else that’s got a better return on investment, I’d focus on that.

10:14

But right now, this is the winner.

10:21

No, Chris, it just didn’t work out.

10:23

For whatever reason, that CFO knew something that we didn’t know and he wasn’t going to tell us.

10:30

Guy asked when there will be more info on what’s next? Whenever I’m given permission to talk about it.

10:47

Can they do the calculation in two weeks? We can. We upped all the people for the closeout. Imagine this.

11:07

So give me a couple, what’s the largest, how many employees were your biggest deals?

11:13

List me that real Rick, list me how many employees you had.

11:18

And I’ll tease y ‘all a little bit with what’s coming.

11:20

How many employees did you have on your last deals?

11:23

Your biggest deal with most qualified employees?

11:27

100?

11:31

So imagine if that was worth $600 a month forever, Steve Brandt.

11:49

400, imagine if that was worth $2 ,400 a month until you retired.

11:55

Brian, now you got 600 a month if you work for a week and then decide to never swing the hammer again, you still got that 600 coming in.

12:15

Yeah, we’re going to make it super easy, Chris.

12:17

I can’t promise everything because I’m not 100% behind it, but we’re going to make it super easy for everybody.

12:22

But here’s what’s important right now.

12:26

Even, you know, make sure you have a relationship with your customers.

12:32

Like over a tenth of that, Mr. Doug Starks, is what we’re playing with right now.

12:42

There might be more.

12:46

It is very heaven sent, Julia.

12:51

The secret to wealth is recurring.

12:53

Trust me when I tell you that continuity, whatever they want to call it, secret to wealth is recurring. One-time pays is a job, but sometimes, sometimes 100 times 6 is 600, Doug.

13:11

100 employees times 6 is 600, but sometimes one-time pays make sense.

13:29

When I was in the car business, you know, I did really well, right?

13:33

I mean, I did well over 100 grand before I was 21, right? Correct Steve.

13:40

And it was cool but like you know unless somebody sent their sister, brother, cousin, or uncle you know it was really a one time and done.

13:54

I mean the chances of somebody actually buying a car from me twice is pretty rare.

13:57

Now I was in a smaller town and I was a pretty good at customer service so I had a lot of repeat business but it wasn’t like they bought car every month and i can remember like coming to the conclusion i’m like i’m killing myself i’m killing myself right like i have to go out and hunt every day on the first i’m i’m nobody you know what i mean you can have the best month of your life but on the first year and nobody again. And so I realized recurring is the secret to success. Trust me when I tell you that.

14:36

And I’m just guessing, Steve, that’s just some of the numbers we’re playing with.

14:40

We don’t 100% have it contracted yet, but right now it’s looking like something like that.

14:56

It’s hard to find something better to market than ERTC. I agree. You’re giving away free money for a large return.

15:02

A thousand percent, a hundred percent agree.

15:09

Agree, Riddell. All right.

15:19

Julissa, if you don’t have anything else, and if nobody has any questions that I can answer real quick, I don’t want to drag this out any longer than we have to.

15:32

I don’t have anything else said.

15:36

Brian triggered all the commission payments like two seconds ago, so everyone who’s expecting that commission should get it today.

15:45

Very nice. Very cool.

15:48

Does anybody else have anything last?

15:50

Thank you, Julia. I appreciate you.

15:59

Thanks, Guy. I appreciate you, buddy.

16:09

I don’t think so, Andy.

16:11

Yeah. Thank you. Amen. I appreciate everybody.

16:13

See you, everyone.

16:16

See you later, Syd.
