0:00Impact on your income. It will have a massive impact on the way that you will go out and meet new people. It will have a massive impact on your relationships. How many of you have clients that they just love your work and love the service you provide? They love your products and then we refer people to you. And how many have clients but they don't refer a lot of clients to you? How many would one more refer us? Yeah? Okay, good. Yes? Yes. So I'm going to show you how to get more referrals. How many of you go to other different networking things and networking events? You try to expand your network? Come and you do that. Okay, so I'm going to give you some very practical strategies. You notice we didn't play the networking game in part one. I'm going to actually do it in part two. I'm actually going to teach you strategies and then you implement it when you're playing networking games. I'm good. Yeah. You're going to apply it. And I also am going to do something a little bit different you'll see.

1:01So connect and convert. Connect and convert. Now you'll notice everything I teach, I keep everything very simple. Yes? Yes. Because there's genius. I believe there's genius in simplicity. I want to keep things very, very simple. You'll notice basically you've been around with me for a long period of time. Basically I have about eight or nine fundamental principles that I follow. And I just basically keep saying the same thing again and again, but from different angle. Okay, and one of those could be the success cycle. You'll notice basically every class of go back to that. I'll keep pointing to that success cycle. I'll keep working on it and on and on it. And another principle of course is no energy drain of the four rules. Again, I'll keep working on that. Keep going back to it again and again. And another one. And that is 97% 3% we paid off to me. 97% 3% 1 more time. 97% 3% 97% of the population are dead or dead broke by the age of 65.

2:04Only 3% succeed financially. 97% are dead or dead broke because they have been conditioned. What's the word? Condition. Condition, you think like a poor person. So 3% succeed. How many recognize that successful people think they're different than poor people? Yes? Absolutely. In fact, they think they opposite. They think what? Opposite. Do you know that less than 6% of the population makes over $100,000 a year. Do you know less than 1% of the population makes over $325,000 a year. Less than 1% of the population. So 3% of the people who are succeeding and 97% are struggling. What that means is today I'm going to teach you how what the 97% are doing wrong when it comes to drawing the network and meeting new people. And what are the 3% that are doing right? Interested? Yes. And it's going to be very, very, for some of you it's going to be mind blowing.

3:08For some of you it's going to be a reminder. What is it? The way it reminds you of maybe I give you a couple of techniques and we find your approach. Maybe you already doing a little bit of that but how can we do more? Got it? So, repeat after me. Becoming a millionaire is not difficult. It is what? It is different. There's a way for you to win at this game but it's very, very different from the way that you've been playing it. Very, very, very different. Very, very different. And I say, as I always say, find out what the majority of the people are doing, the 97% and do you do exactly the? Why? Why? Why? Because conventional wisdom, good, mentioned, is almost always wrong. So if you observe what most people are doing at different networking functions, you will know if you just do the opposite, chances are you're on the right track. If you do what everyone else is doing, chances are you are doing it wrong. Makes sense?
