it hit me like a train when this dawned on me

iza,

The thing they don’t tell you when you start a business is that something is going to happen.

Something big.

Because YOU decided to show up and change your corner of the world.

I call it the fingerprint effect.

Let me tell you my fingerprint effect.

Everywhere I look, people are starting and scaling low-ticket businesses.

Because of me.

“I had my first $100k month with a $27 product!”

“I just paid off my house!”

“My husband just quit his job and he’s home with us now!”

^^ These kinds of stories land in my “Student Success” Slack channel every day.

I see my fingerprints all over their work.

And I could not be more proud.

But, iza, never forget this is the house I made my first $1 in:

I had to learn how to reach these people so I could HAVE that fingerprint effect.

iza, maybe you’re at the beginning.

Maybe you’re still learning how to reach people, how to get them to buy from you.

My encouragement is to keep going.

Learn everything you can about sales and marketing.

None of us are born with those skills.

But that fingerprint effect we GET to have when we figure out how to reach people quite literally changes the world.

I’m ready to change the world, iza, are you?!

Let’s go!!!!!!

Love,

Maria
