Todd is going to look to do right by people and not expect anything back.  Oh, by the way, he will get in your face AND SAY IT LIKE IT IS, LIKE SOME OF US HAVE TO HEAR IT.  J This is one of my best interviews and you will gain a lot from Todd no matter what business you are in or about to go in or weather you would like to improve your own personal relationships.

I found Todd Brown when I was forwarded an e-mail that linked me to Habits of The Top Internet Marketers.  Listen to the interview and stop by Todd’s site and enhance your day, your week your, month or your career.

Todd started out in the fitness industry and rose to a Vice President.  He came across an offline marketing system for fitness professionals that he was so impressed that he sought out the source of the fitness training program who happened to be Dan Kennedy.  At this time Todd became hooked and wanted to get into the Internet Marketing game.  He absorbed all of Dan’s information and he became a student of Dan’s.

He chose to go into an associated market that he had experience and an affinity with vs. create a conflict of interest and go directly in the fitness field which he was already part of.  Todd has chosen a couple of different niches with Massage Therapy and Chiropractics industries and he went deep and conquered both niches.

Todd shares “lessons” of how he went into his niches.  What he learned is that you have to be where the money is at.  What Todd knows about the internet marketing industry now is that the massage industry does not have a high net worth per practicing therapists.  His advice is to find a group of people who have the money in their niche, you want to go where the profits are.

Todd is a student of students and has absorbed information from Dan Kennedy and Rich Schefren.  Todd learned about the marketing tactics from Dan Kennedy.  Todd invested in himself.  Todd also took a lot of good information from Rich Schefren on how to be a business owner.  While tactics are important if you want to grow a business you have to take tactics into a systemized methodology that accomplishes your overall strategy.  Todd was investing a bulk of his profits back into his education, Todd was and is investing in himself.

You can learn a lot about what to do.  Todd has a long list of people that he has learned from.  He studies how they do it.  He gets on their e-mail lists in order to see how they do it.  We do not need to carve a new path, we do not need to reinvent the wheel. Todd pays attention through observation and study, but at the end of the day he is all about doing it and taking action.  Taking action is what separates the men from the boys and the women from the girls is the action.

Todd talks about keeping the internet business simple.  What stops the majority of people is the excuse making.  Todd will not sugar coat his message.  If you don’t have the knowledge “you have the opportunity to acquire the knowledge.”   “If you don’t have the skills you have the opportunity to acquire the skills.”  “If you don’t have the time you have the ability to better manage your time.”  All of the current internet marketers did not have the skills when the first started out, they went from the bottom 2% to the top 2%.

If you really want it you will be able to find the time and the money to get it.  Todd got started in 2003.  He invested $800 including funds to register the company, the domains etc.  Todd was able to keep motivated by thinking about the end result, his why is what kept him motivated.

Todd goes over a few of the habits of the Top Internet Marketers.  The top habit of the successful individual is acting on self discipline.  The top habit for success is “doing the thing that you are supposed to do when you are supposed to do it even when you don’t feel like it.”
 

We are not born with self discipline, we develop self discipline.  When you goof off you strengthen your skill of goofing off more.  The habit of self discipline ties into personal responsibility.  Nobody is coming to the rescue.  2008 Presidential Candidate Rudy Giuliani has a plaque that says “I am responsible.”  In business you have to control your business you have to steer it.  You have to take responsibility.  We are the sum of our choices, the small choices and big choices.  The decision to read later and cut into TV time, or stay up later or get up earlier is something that will deliver results.

Take a look at someone’s appointment book and it is the crystal ball on where they are going to wind up.  What are we doing with our time?  Are we investing in ourselves or are we hoping that we will become millionaires and success.  The lottery winners do not develop the habits or skill sets to be worth a million dollars or millionaires, the have a million dollars but they are not millionaires.  Todd has integrity and shares that one area of growth is that he has room for improvement for expanding his extended network.

Todd provides small business operators automated marketing tools through offline, PPC, JV’s and offline advertising in the specific trade niches.  Todd gives away his information and says that it is all about adding value to other people first.  Todd is all about over delivering value.  You can’t go wrong with over delivering on value.  The number one objection we get in business on the sale is money.  Todd proves that money is not the issue.  The perceived value is what people complain about, not the money.  Show people that they should give you their money.

Todd is in the massage industry with 13 information/courses products, MassageBusinessUniversity.com.  You can access all of his information at http://www.getmassageclients.com/index2.htm.    The http://www.thechiropracticdashboard.com/indexdefault3.html  is another one of Todd’s Sites. 

Todd goes into copywriting. He says that it is marketing and copywriting which is the keys to success.  It is the single biggest tactic that he has invested in to generate his success is copywriting and it is the great copy that can make or break a business.  Todd does not have 2,000 people on his list but he is able to generate a 6 figure income. Todd will leave you with something that is highly profound that can be holding a lot of people back. Enjoy this podcast it will only enhance your life.
