What I did last week.

Last week I done the following:-

  • I added over 1000 people to my mailing list.
  • I sold a ton of products earning me thousands of dollars.
  • I sent out a promotional email that also made a ton of sales.
  • I sold a ton of products as an affiliate.
  • I made sure my coaching material was delivered on time to my coaching students.

So what did I do to make this happen?

Nothing, I was on vacation in Jamaica. (See below for snaphots)

You see, we live in an age where we can sell digital goods and 100% automate the whole process, with delivery tools such as My Digital Dispatch we can have our goods delivered and with an autoresponder service such as Aweber we can have our emails set to go out on autopilot while we are not at our computer.

eBay also provides all the tools needed to automate an info product business with Selling Manager Pro and Turbo Lister.

All I had to worry about was support, but as I have my support manager Daniel doing that for me I knew I really had nothing to worry about.

And in the age we live in if a massive problem had developed Daniel could have phoned me while I lay on the beach, although I would not have been to happy this never happened as he knows my business inside out.

All I did was send a few text messages over the course of the week to make sure everything was OK. And I really didn’t have to do that as my business was in good hands.

I also could have taken my laptop with me and ran my business myself but as this was a family vacation this is something I did not do. In fact it was nice to be away from my computer for 9 days.

What I am trying to say here is just 10-15 years ago this lifestyle was not possible. With modern technology and the Internet it is now possible for every single one of us to live a dream lifestyle. Just a few years ago I had a mind numbing boring job in a factory and just last week I was lying on a Caribbean beach while back home my business was running on autopilot and was still earning money.

It’s only at times like this I realise how fortunate I am to live in this age as if we went back in time just 10 years I would still be working in a factory.

So grasp what the Internet has to offer you and start using it to your advantage. We are all so lucky to have this opportunity and anyone that realises this will go far and I strongly believe this is just the beginning of what we can all achieve.

Here are a few snapshots of my vacation, if you ever get the chance to go to Jamaica please do as the Jamaican people are so friendly and laid back it really makes you see things differently.

 

Rafting Down The Martha Brae River. This was so relaxing.

 

This picture was taken from Shaw Park Gardens.

 

Can you spot the famous Reggae superstar in this image?

 

The entrance to Bob Marley’s birthplace and final resting place at 9 miles in St Ann. This was a day I will never forget.

 

One of my attempts at being a professional photographer :-)

 

And another, do you think they will make next year’s brochure?

 

I wish I was back here now.

ย 

 

Another view of the beach.

 

And Another.

 

 

My son Alex took this shot of the local wildlife.

 

A view of one of the hotel bars from our balcony, where we spent most evenings having a few Rum Punches :-)

 

Guess who?

Feel free to leave any comments and if you have ever been to Jamaica please share your experiences.

    I do have one question, why did you spend most evenings on the balcony? you should have gone down to the bar…

    Great pictures, John. Looking at the pictures makes me want to take out my watercolor paintings and paint. Your nature and ocean pictures are great! Being a musician myself, it was a special
    treat to see the home of Bob Marley. That wood sculpture pic. of him might be valuable one day. If it was lefted in our country it would have been stolen by now and put on auction somewhere for a
    lot of money! A very nice picture of you too! Everyone needs to

    Hi John,

    I won’t say “you lucky chap” because I know you worked hard to get to where you can be today. Jamaca looks lovely, all backwater, peace and quiet. What a difference from city-living and the so-called modern conveniences.

    You’re too right about the internet opening avenues for income that didn’t exist a few years ago. Yet many are put off mainly, I think, because it doesn’t seem like a real job, and offers no status. Also, all the hype and hoopla about making $200.00 per hour in 15 minutes and locking in hundreds of thousands in a matter of months comes across like some child’s fairy tale, and is not to be taken
    seriously.

    Pity. Because, as you say, the internet does offer a very workable alternative to the ‘just-over-broke’situation most people are chained to.

    When’s your next vacation, and where?

    Ciao,

    Hi, John!

    Well, if this is what you can do on autopilot, I am ready for it! WoW! I visited St. John in the Virgin Islands back in the day, very similar to its neighbor, Jamaica – never got over to Jamaica, yet! Errol Flynn, the classic swashbuckler who starred in ROBIN HOOD in 1938 owned a hotel called the Titchfield and lived on Navy Island (which he owned) in Port Antonio, Jamaica. He lived there at least 15 years before he died of a heart attack in 1959 in Vancouver, B.C., Canada on a trip in 1959. He is responsible for creating and popularizing the river rafting trips so famous now in Jamaica. And of course, he rafted down the same Martha Brae River as you did!

    Flynn was a pilot and flew his own plane in Jamaica kept at Kingston, and his friends were Robin Moore who wrote The French Connection in his yard under a mango tree in Port Antonio, Ian Fleming who wrote the James Bond books and Noel Coward who lived in Ochos Rios. Many of the old Classic film stars and today stars visit Jamaica, so you were in very good company!

    You’ve really earned this lifestyle, John!

    Did you feel a little naked without your computer? I would be having withdrawal symptoms! Good on you for not bringing a laptop and giving your family all your attention. This is a memory your family will never forget.

    As a British citizen you can freely travel to Cuba, another of Flynn’s old haunts. Americans can’t travel there as tourists (as yet, anyway) but if I were in your shoes I’d give it a chance to become another great memory.

    Thanks for showing folks what they are shooting for!

    Best always, David~

    Anyway it is good you provided us proof that trips like this are not only possible, but probable IF we continue your leadership.

    As far as the pictures and your photography, well the beach chairs are sitting in lots of sand, and you should have written something there for us to read.

    Daniel here from Germany, not your support Daniel.
    Just makes me wonder:
    “… although I would not have been to happy this never happened as he knows my business inside out.”
    If your Daniel knows your business inside out, why is he working for you, a lousy 9-5 job maybe for peanuts, instead of doing these businesses himself, if he knows it all??
    Looks like it takes more than what you promote and sell to become a successful internet marketer …

    Reply from John,

    Hi Dan,

    Daniel does work for himself and has many products of his own, in fact he is releasing a new product in a few weeks. It is actually a worry of my own that one day he will become so successful on his own he will not want to work for me but he works for me because he is a personal friend whom I have known for years. He uses my methods and is an eBay PowerSeller and success in his own right.
    You could say I’m taking him on my journey with me and he doesn’t want to get off at this moment.

    Also, I don’t pay him peanuts to work for me and his job is not 9-5. More whenever – whenever for about an hour or so a day. That also helps.

    I hope this clears things up for you.

    Welcome back John, looks like you had a great time. As I am not a sun worshipper, nor much of a traveller, I’m maybe the only one here who is not jealous of your vacation.

    However, I certainly am jealous of your freedom. The freedom to take a day, a week or even a month away and know that the work you’ve done in the past will continue to make a residual income. That for me is the great attraction of internet marketing and I can’t wait for that first Clickbank cheque to land on the doormat :-)

    Ive always wanted to see the legend Bob Marleys birth place its sounds a fantastic place to go to…

    You look like you had a fab time i like the way you say that your business was automated for you so that you dont have much worry.

    The whole thing looks very inspiring and hope to go there someday

    Thanks for sharing your visit there

    Hi John,

    I have been to Jamaica twice now. It is always a beautiful place to visit. You must try riding down the roads in the Blue Hills mountain. Also a walk down Dunn’s River Falls is a great advanture. Hope to make a thrid visit one of these years. Pictures don’t do Jamaica justice thou, its much better and sereal in person. Thanks for the trip back to memory lane.

    Great pictures, John. I have to say what happened to your business while you were on vacation without your laptop is more than inspiring and certainly humbling.

    John . . Here’s a vacation tip for you to try… Las Vegas!
    I just got back from speaking at a huge sales seminar there. It was my first time in Vegas and I must say it was AWESOME. I can only describe it as 100mph of nonstop FUN! If you do ever come to the states, I’ll be glad to show you to all the hot spots.

    Good Morning John,

    I found your photos to be very inspiring and motivational, although I have no real desire to go to visit Jamaica personally. I was looking at them in the sense that they were showing what could be done. An automated business that requires supervision but not your entire life. I too want this life style, That is the exact reason that I enrolled in the coaching class. There is also another reason, I have been studying success for many years and the one thing that comes up over and over is to find a mentor, see what they are doing, do the exact same thing. No results are guaranteed but learning is assured.

    Thank you for this opportunity to emulate a real Master of the Web.

    Sincerely,
    Gene

    We stayed in montego Bay and seen a few cruse ships come in over the course of the week. I was just along the road from where the ships dock. It’s a small world :-)

    Hi Frank,

    We stayed in Montego Bay, that’s the other side of the North Coast but we did pass through Ocha Rios on the way to Shaw Park. It’s a beautiful place

    Hey John,

    Looks like fun!

    Thanks for sharing, I think if you’re ebook business ever goes bottom up you may be able to start selling “digital photos” online with those sick camera man skills you got working for you!

    Take Care,

    Chris

    P.S. – Give the little man some props for the expert camera angle on the lizard too!

    Hi John,

    Was it cold there or just kind of warm ?

    I was in France just last month and it was
    a nice change of weather for me. Singapore
    is just too warm.

    Anyway, I’m so happy that you had a good time
    and can certainly identify with that.

    However, what could be interesting if you could
    post something along the way to how you
    came from a struggling factory worker
    to becoming what you are today.

    Just a snippet of your IM journey to success
    would be nice. What do you think? ๐Ÿ˜‰

    Cheers,
    Vern

    Been there. Done that. I will again! My current situation prohibits even thinking about revisiting places like this. But I will NEVER give up! Just looking at the pics makes me enviuos. I know how negative that is but it gives me some to shoot for. Thanks for sharing. Alex
