Mike says, is the majority of your business still from selling info or consulting? Which business model do you prefer? Right now, it's info. And there's a deliberate reason for that. There are two deliberate reasons for that. #1 - it's personal preference, which was spawned by me being wore out...
What are people buying online today? And then the question goes a little deeper...is it online courses, white papers? Just curious what the hot products are right now. The short answer to that is everything.
Is high-end continuity still a significant part of your business model? No, high-end continuity isn't and it never really has been. By high-end, I'm assuming you mean multi-thousand dollar consulting engagements...
What was the single biggest obstacle I overcame to get where I am today? That's a serious question. There are a lot of them, so I'll just tell you all the dumb stuff that I do. And then I'll let you decide what the biggest obstacle is.

What courses of yours are a good fit for a very advanced, well-established internet marketer? Really depends on the desired outcome. I consider myself to be a very advanced, well-established internet marketer, and what I always go back to is the fundamentals or...
I want to share an unusual belief that was, I'm going to put this in air quotes, forced on me growing up that forever changed my life for the better. I say forced on me, again in air quotes, because I was never given an option to consider it. It never occurred to me that it might not be true. It was literally repeated to me over and over and over again. And I believed it and I gotta tell ya, I thank God for the belief. And I thank God  that I believed it, that I quote unquote, fell for it. So here's the belief...
Would an e-com store brand benefit from the maximizer? Yeah! With e-com, where you guys fall off...
I think it's a great question because he's trying to target B2B. So he has a general contractor who wants to target commercial business owners only. Do you have any recommendations on the copy and target audiences that he should use? Okay. So they own the office building, I would assume? They own or lease and need a general contractor...
How long should we be leaving each ad on for this challenge?  I like three days, generally speaking. So if I'm willing to pay...
My question is...I am doing web design, you know, landing page on websites, so I was wondering what is the best way to create a segmentation on Facebook for that? To create a segmentation? By segmentation, do you mean target?

What do you think about building a lead generation ad that is actually a conversion ad on Facebook? First step is the freebie/lead collection. Next page is a low ticket offer and order bump, then upsell.  It's fine. You just have to be prepared for them to a. not click to the next page...

Really my question is wrapped around the case study that you used in the direct presentation that you used to get us into this class where day one was the $1.80 ad spend and then eventually you showed the 30 days in May where you spent about $3.50 and generated $600,000 in sales.
