I really wanted to have a small membership where I can have a community because long term that's going to help everybody else out more.

0:06.8

It's taken time and so I think now I'm trying to push it hard as far as trying to find guys like you or whatever to get in a Facebook group or at least jump on monthly calls.

0:14.8

I'm just trying to do it through different mediums so that way hopefully people can connect and so hopefully meet one another if you will.

0:20.7

In all honesty I feel like you can even charge more to be honest. I would have spent a lot more to you know not don't charge me more now.

0:29.6

I would have spent a lot more. I mean I feel like just some of these like meetup groups that I go to sometimes they charge like $50 a swing and there's not even a lunch or anything provided.

0:38.6

So one time meetup where this is you know a monthly thing with a lot of the benefits and a lot of great connections.

0:44.3

I mean for someone like myself I feel like if I'm at one person over the next year you know it brought me a tremendous amount of value.

0:50.4

And I think what did I spend $15 I think a month? I think you're selling it to cheap almost.

0:56.0

I mean all honesty Mary said that she had the whole thing that sparked this conversation is I guess you had a marketing company on.

1:03.3

And now they're helping her they got her an as very park press which is a local paper here but she did like over $15,000 in business just off of them getting her in that article.

1:14.0

And they've also got her in a ton of other things. I mean she said you know listen it was one phone call for $15 a month.

1:20.4

It already brought me over $15,000 worth of gross return. I mean that's just tremendous value in my opinion.

1:27.3

And if I can even get a fraction of value like that out of any of these calls I mean it would be worth $100 a month from me at this point you know.

1:35.7

I'm recording this can I use that as a clip for the podcast if you don't mind like yeah good.

1:41.3

So that was a kickoff call with one of our new members Tyler who just joined the group he joined the group through his friend Mary.

1:48.2

So thank you both for being part of it. It's free to join the Facebook group. So if you're on the fence I don't know why you want it join.

1:54.4

If it's free to join the Facebook group that way you can ask questions hopefully we can answer any of your business questions there.

2:00.3

But if you want to jump on the monthly calls that's where it costs money plus by becoming a member you also get special episodes that other people don't get.

2:09.2

And we're going to keep adding more perks as I've said in the past so hopefully that gives you a little preview and insight on like how much value we're actually getting from doing these monthly calls.

2:17.6

And give you an opportunity to go ahead and meet other people we want to make you all active listeners and help you with your business and not just help you passively.
