Build Email Drip Campaigns that Convert SalesSalesScripter
When we hear the prospect say “No”, it can often be the case that the prospect is not saying, “No, never”. More so, they are really saying “No, not right now”.
This is because prospects are often not ready to purchase at the exact moment when you get in front of them. This is not a result of your product or your pitch. It is just tough to time it perfectly right.

The document also recommends tools to use like autoresponders and WordPress and stresses the importance of consistent work to build a foundation for passive income success over time.
One donation form on your website just doesn’t cut it today. If that’s all you have on your site, you are missing opportunities with every visitor and missed opportunities are missed donation dollars. In this presentation, you’ll learn how to go beyond the donation form.
This document discusses various passive revenue models (PRMs) that can generate income without extensive time investment. These include info-products like ebooks and online courses, group coaching programs, affiliate marketing, ad revenue, and membership programs. It provides examples and steps for implementing each model, such as creating an info-product by solving customers' problems, running live group programs and converting them to self-study, setting up affiliate links, placing ads on a website or videos, and developing a membership with ongoing content. The key is finding ways to monetize existing communications and actions.

THINGS TO NOTE
Intent counts more than technique
Rapport – people like to buy from people they like
Because – I said so
Contrast – the difference between
Reciprocation – the give and take
Social proof
Scarcity – the law of the few (if what you desire is in limited supply or seemingly limited supply, its perceived value increases. This also increases the urge for people to want it and want it immediately.)
