Ralph Zuranski: Yeah and I think probably you would agree that the most important thing in the world is to actually do something and create a product.

So many people spend their lives spending thousands and thousands of dollars every month just going to the seminars, buying all the courses and never producing one product or taking the good advice that the majority of the speakers give them.

Willie Crawford: Most people set in the back of the room and they make notes and they plan they buy things they go home and they stick it on a shelf and the speakers can’t control what their customer’s do with what they buy.

So you I guess grow a little callous as far as; well they’re not going to do anything that’s not my fault but it’s all about action.

I mentioned earlier I’ve gone through some counseling. One of my counselors said to me, she said; Willie she said nothing happens until you change. It’s all about change and it’s all about action.

This is March and on January 2nd, I produced my first info product this year. I sat down and spent about four hours writing out an ebook that was 24 pages that I sold for $29.00. It has already made my $15 grand. I’m on my this is March I’m on my fifth product this year already.

Ralph Zuranski: That’s great.

Willie Crawford: And I’ve already made March, I’ve already made about 300 grand this year.

Ralph Zuranski: Yeah, well that’s sweet.

Willie Crawford: Yeah, I mean part of that that’s skewed because I did a fire sale that it made about $27,000 in a day. But that’s all about action you see.

Ralph Zuranski: Yeah.

Willie Crawford: Again I look at Mike Filsaime was selling his Butterfly Marketing program, and when I went through it I said everybody and his brother is going to do a fire sale now. And I said I need to do one early. And I’m sure I was one of the first people to do one.

And I rolled it out, I didn’t give my partners enough time to plan for it. I just said… I was at Ken McArthur’s JV Alert live seminar in Orlando and I said I’m going to do this starting on Friday of next week. And I said to the people in the room I’ll let you in first. I offered it at the back of room product for like $47.00 and I didn’t even have the products together yet.

I went back home and planned it, put the website together, there were some glitches there with the scripts that were suppose to go in the backend of the show. And while others were making excuses and hemming and hawing I said I’m not going to delay it I am going to do it. And so I just, I had to make some changes.

I had to email my partners and say you know this changes the backend that pays you, that manages the affiliate program some of that stuff has changed because there’s problems with the scripts. But I am still going to do it on time.

And we rolled it out and my first day was $27,000.00, my second day was $21,000.00 and my third day was $18.000.00 and there’s people in my part of Florida don’t make $80,000.00 in a year.

Well maybe they do, but that’s poverty level, but nobody makes $21,000.00 a day or $28,000.00 a day. But I did you know. And that’s just my friend Joe Vitale, he wrote in one of his books he says money aligns people that act fast.

And that is all I picked up from that book. I think that was the attraction factor, I’m not sure. But I make a decision and I do it.

Ralph Zuranski: Well that is amazing you’re experiencing some incredible success in your life now. A lot of people don’t realize that everybody has low points in their lives. In fact life is like a roller coaster. When was the lowest point in your life and how did you change your life path to win a victory over all obstacles?

Willie Crawford: I want anyone listening to this call to go to GitOffThePorch.com and read my biography. I talk about getting up one morning, walking into the shower, taking a shower and in the middle of the shower collapsing. And I made such a thunderous noise that my wife rushed into the bathroom and I’m lying in the shower dying. I’m convinced I was dying at that time.

And she yells and screams at me don’t you do this, don’t you leave me. And she yelled and she screamed so much that there was a part of me that thought you know, I’m tired, I’m very tired. At that point I’d probably been drunk for like six months every single day.
