One time at a marketing event I was attending in Vegas, I met a guy who was a big deal in online marketing.
He had a massive list and following.
When he found out I was “the LinkedIn guy” he said he didn’t know anything about LinkedIn and wanted me to pitch him on it.
He invited me to come on a webinar he was hosting soon to teach his audience about how they could leverage LinkedIn in their business.
I had never been on a webinar.
I didn’t have a professional product to present.
I said yes. ;)
I was so nervous the day of the webinar, that I asked my brother and his family to leave the house so I could be alone.
I was sweating so much I had to take my shirt off.
I stumbled over my words and barely got through my first few slides.
But then I put mind over matter and focused in on what I knew a lot about.
I delivered a lot of value and at the end I offered a LinkedIn bootcamp that I would host online for anyone interested in more training.
(I didn’t have the bootcamp put together at all by the way.)
The webinar ended and I sat in my chair trying not to mess anything up.
Then I decided to check my PayPal account to see if anyone had actually bought the bootcamp.
There was $6,300 in my account.
I WAS RICH!!
That was the most money I had ever seen in my account.
I was dancing around the house like a mad man, throwing the cats in the air and screaming.
No joke :)
But what really got me excited was the fact that I had just spent 1 hour on a live event,
with thousands of attendees,
in my living room,
and made thousands of dollars.
This was the answer to what I’d been looking for.
From that webinar forward, I focused all my business and sales strategies on webinars.
I developed a multi-million dollar business with a partner selling educational courses on online marketing and social media.
This is why I now market all of my products via webinars.

I host where I go through the step by step of my process (which I developed by hosting over 500 webinars).
So how did I go from a sweaty wreck at my brother’s house to living my dream and building a hugely profitable business?
It’s not a one-sentence answer.
But I’m going to tell you how.
For now, check out the webinar and stay tuned for what’s next.
This is the key to how I’ve built my business.
And I want you to have access to all my best insight.
Stay passionate friends,
Lewis
P.S. The reason I can play handball all over the world with the USA Team is because I can host webinars from all over the world on my laptop ;)
