14 Things I Wish I Knew When 
I Started My Online Business
June 1st 2017
— Would you like to avoid some of the costly mistakes when it comes to starting, 
     growing and scaling your online business?  

At the age of 26 now, I’ve invested well over $200,000 in my own education to learn,
and grow myself to be able to create online businesses that generate millions of dollars.

By the time I was 25, I’ve started 3 different million dollar businesses, and now I’m ON A MISSION 
not to make a bunch more money, but to create more of an impact in other people’s lives.

If you are someone who is interested in learning how to create a business you love using the internet, without having to invest $200,000 to learn what works and what doesn’t then;

Whether it’s good or bad – I have thick skin and high self esteem 🙂

So let me know if you love it or hate it! Deal ?
14 Things I Wish I Knew When  I Started My Online Business
1. Always Be Building Your List (#1 Asset)  
The more leads you have, the more people you can communicate with, this is the power,
control and ultimate leverage that comes with your online marketing efforts

If, you dream, fantasise of making “Push Button Money” – well, sorry to burst your bubble but
it takes a little work to get there and be like me So if you want to be making consistent income,
you gotta be building your list. DAILY.

If you are part of a home business, network marketing company – do NOT build their list.

You need to build yours. (This was one of the biggest mistakes I made in my business
and it’s cost me at least $250,000+ in lost sales.) Everyone told me to go and build my list
from day one, i was maybe 9 months late in starting so…

2. Start, Grow & Cultivate An Audience – Not just a list
Building an audience is faster and easier than ever before.

Change your mindset from just trying to get leads to be building an audience
of people who follow you… My list comprises of people from all over the world

who want to make money online, who want to grow an internet business, network marketing business, people who want time-location-money freedom. I help average people achieve that and
guide them to buy my stuff.

I travel all over the world and i share where i go, the lessons i learn and how someone can model my success. This builds my personality into their minds and they know, like and trust me fast, once they do this it is their idea for them to work with me and them to buy my stuff, my audience members of my list buy stuff from $49 all the way to $50,000 and one client has spent well over $100,000.

Build a pleasing personality in yourself so you can create more rapport faster with your subscribers, you do this, you win their heart over with transparency. I share the good, the bad and the ugly and obviously i share insider stuff that no one else gets to see because of the results i’ve been able to achieve.

Imagine the power that comes from building an audience, you also need to understand this has great responsibility that you need to take on too, delivering to customers, looking after your customers and offering them more products and services. Don’t hold back on building your own list.

Thanks to email marketing and social media you can broadcast your message to thousands of people with a single click.  Anyone with an internet connection can now build an audience and grow their business faster than ever before. You got no excuses now…

Start building your audience, i have an amazing audience
– YOU – a loyal group of subscribers that i can communicate to daily, i add value to their lives, and i direct them to whatever i want them to.

Imagine that power, control and influence at the tips of your fingertips. One of the ways you can deepen your relationship with your audience and something i didn’t do, which i do now and i know will increase my profits is DIRECT MAIL.

On the left you have a picture of what i mean – sending out books, sales letters to my clients and offering them more products and services : I bought couple hundred copies of my buddies book Mike Dillard to send out to my best clients.


You build an audience by adding value – i spend 30mins to 90 mins each day thinking, reflecting then pouring my heart out to write to YOU.

If you need help, here you'll find the right mentorship, coaching & guidance you'll need to overcome obstacles you are facing in your business today. So make sure you keep reading to find out how.
3. Start outsourcing early on.  Delegate. Delegate. Delegate.
Don’t worry. I’m not talking about hiring a full-time VA. Not yet anyway.

But I want you to STOP doing all the stuff that you can outsource affordably on sites like Fiverr, oDesk, Microlancer, and PeoplePerHour. Graphic Design. Ebook Covers. Audio Editing. Video Editing. Tech Stuff. Setting up Your Membership Site. Setting up Aweber. Running Ads. You name it.

Someone online can do it a LOT more affordably than you might think. And here’s the thing, sometimes they may do it better than you

Don’t waste time on the stuff that doesn’t grow your business. Hire people who are smarter than you, that are more efficient and have more expertise and can get things done faster.

Speed is important. I practically DELEGATE every single thing, except of emailing my newsletter readers. I write to you PERSONALLY each and every day.
4. Spend 20% of your time learning. 80% of your time DOING
Become a PRODUCER. Not just a CONSUMER. OK ?

The doing part is what grows your business. And what you’ll find is that the best way to learn about business is just doing it. Action trumps all.

Action trumps you sitting there posting and wasting time on silly facebook and twitter. After analysing 80-20 it is worth it to be on Social Media to connect with clients. I use Anti Social CC to block social media sites.

That being said – you should follow me on these sites to see what i post there and that i’m real, transparent and RAW;

https://www.facebook.com/shaqir.hussyin

My facebook group has now over 12,000+ members and this is a great way to show your transparency – post your questions here and join like minded people

https://twitter.com/ShaqirHussyin

My twitter followers are over 22,800+ members and growing, here we share many insider preview and workshop that you can learn from 
– post your questions here for me and i'll get back to asap ;)

5. Growth ALWAYS lies OUTSIDE your comfort zone
I used to hate / dislike is a better term, i used to dislike making videos – then i realised that the more videos i make the more money i make – to the tune of $10’s of thousands of dollars per video…

If i knew this earlier i would have soo been doing this.. Crazy – huh ?

Well imagine i never did that – then look at how much money i would have lost…
Now i ask myself what can i do every day to make sure i am coming outside my comfort zone ?
6. Investing In Myself More
I’ve done this from day one i guess, even when i had no money, i still begged and borrowed to get there… Now i’ve invested $200k at least in my brain, travelling to learn from the worlds 
best of the best at what they do, no expenses spared there. 

I love investing in myself – to attend conferences, seminars, on average i invest around $10,000+ PER MONTH into my mind to make sure i am at the top of my game, emotionally, mentally in my business and in my personal life…. 

I went to probably 6 different seminars this year, some of them went for as much as $5,000 for a weekend, $15,000 for a week, and alot more, oh i joined Strategic Coach too, the highest level of coaching for high-growth entrepreneurs… 

I also spoke and attended a $30,000+ PER PERSON mastermind in Mexico with some of my friends and mentors like Matt Lloyd & T.J Rohleder

See – i do, what i teach. I attend events, and if you want fast-success, you need to! 2015 forward I’ll be doing a TON of events – all over the world, yep – i’m going HARD this year, i want to impact and reach more people this year than i’ve done in the last 5 years combined… 

The fastest way to get to where you want to be is to find people who are doing what you want to achieve and Model Them.. Avoid starting from scratch. 

I’ve joined Strategic Coach, Dan Pena QLA for advanced hyper growth minded entrepreneurs and a ton of other masterminds. Are you part of a mastermind ? Here’s where you can learn about my one called SHIC

7. Stop worrying about what other people think
The only people who are ‘liked’ by everyone are those who do nothing, say nothing, and ultimately accomplish nothing. I’m at the point in my life where I really couldn’t give a shit about what anyone thinks of me… 

I used to always let the fact that i’m Muslim, that i’m young, that my name is Hussyin, that i’ve got 101 things wrong with me and no one will want to do business with me hold me back, i think i let it hold me back for at least 6 months when i got started on the internet, all these limiting beliefs came about, some people i meet at seminars go thru the same except most of these people are stuck for years and years and years

if that is you, wake yourself up, SLAP YOUR FACE NOW, seriously why waste years on not being yourself, life is too short my friend. SO SCREW THAT! You are fine, you are great, you are YOU. 

So just get on with it, get your hustle shoes on, i prefer overpriced Louis Vuittons lol, ok i need to focus whilst writing this. Sorry… 

So come from a place where you aren’t too hard on yourself, and focus on the good stuff about you, work on your self-esteem, now I do – say – create – think whatever i want. 

I couldn’t give a crap about anyone thinks of me, and the more i have this attitude, the more i succeed in all areas of my life, i have mentors and my team who i listen to, everyone else well i take it with a pinch of salt. 

Don’t let those that have no results dictate you and your future… I used to let my cousins / uncles affect my behavior cos they would always make fun of me when i was trying to get rich on the internet… If you feel like people aren’t supporting you – cut them out of your life. 

Love your family, choose your friends that support you, that will guide you. I am your friend. Find / Create YOUR tribe of raving fans and serve them with massive value.

8. Email Marketing is still #1 Money-Maker
Hands down, the easiest way to sell, make money, build a lucrative business is through email marketing. If i lost everything, i could build a 7 figure business in less than 12 months just using my e-mail list. Email beats the heck out of everything else, i’ve now built one of the most responsive lists in the entire industry and a solid MULTIPLE 7 Figure Business…

 All from e-mail marketing It’s a major shortcut that will allow you to build a six-figure or seven figure online business WITHOUT becoming a world-class copywriter. It’s also a major shortcut in getting Ultimate Unfair Advantage when it comes to communicating with your customers. 

Practice writing daily, get leads daily, email your leads daily. In fact – i’ve never even gone thru a complete e-mail copy course, thru daily writing to YOU i’ve honed certain formulas another topic for another time… 

When you email your subscribers consistently each day with fun, personalized emails packed with value, lessons that you have learned, your own life challenges, successes, your students success… …you become the real friend, a trusted authority, the expert, the guru that they follow, stalk, and buy stuff you recommend. 

They will happily buy from you based on the RELATIONSHIP that you’ve built with them. The money is not in the list, the money is in the RELATIONSHIP you have with them… The value that you’ve provided, how you make em feel is the asset. 

Read this part again, cos you gotta burn it inside your mind EACH and every day i ask myself – what is the MOST Valuable thing i can share with you ? Then i write it. It takes 30-90 mins to write each day. Then i hit send. This is the Million Dollar Habit… Each e-mail broadcast, i send out to my list is worth around $10,000 – $15,000+ per day – to me…

 And guess what ? My list is actually way tinier than most of the biggest “names” in the marketplace… But VERY VERY RESPONSIVE You don’t need a massive list when i had around 30k subscribers i was making a million or two a year, now i make a lot more and my list is over 60k Wait, 

so i started having a SECOND email marketing habit after i spent 2 days with one of the world’s smartest marketers Dean Jackson, he’s the guy who invented the sq page, so at this $5,000 per person event i attended i spoke to him about this mindset i have when it comes to e-mail marketing, 

he then added in a SECOND million dollar habit question for me… “What fears & challenges are my prospects going thru today ?” Now you have Multi-Million Dollar Email questions that can guide your email marketing;

1) What is the MOST Valuable thing i can share with you ? 

2) “What fears & challenges are my prospects going thru today ?”
9. Provide 10-20x More Value than you charge
My buddies Mike Dillard and Robert Hirsch have taught me this well and constantly remind me that you have to provide 10-20x more value than you price your products and services. 

I’ve done that and created “Million Dollar Offers” on the “fly” with hardly doing sales pages, webinars etc – cos the VALUE is there…. One of my last businesses i took from ZERO to $1 MILLION in less than 18 months and it’s because i always ask myself 

— How can i make the person who is buying my product or service feel like this is the best damn offer they ever got! 

Master creating Irresistible Offers and you will write your own paycheck for LIFE! Even when a new subscriber or member joins my list – i hired my most “Trusted Adviser” who is one of my 6 Figure Earners – success story to help new members get started the correct & profitable way. 

You can request a free strategy session that’s giving a “real” valuable coaching session, no one else does or gives away. Makes me more unique in the marketplace. Model after what i do. This has helped tons of my students make hundreds of thousands of dollars

10. Email your subscribers 1-3-5 times per week. I email daily
14 Things I Wish I Knew When I Started My Online Business…
You open then, read them, take action and buy stuff i recommend. I teach you, to email daily. I write daily, so you can get into the habit of writing daily. 

Think about this, you have a BEST FRIEND or a FAMILY member – do you like talking to them for few mins each day. Of course you do, i certainly do – i may know hundreds of people, but there’s a handful of people i like communicating, emailing, texting, skyping, fb-ing, each day… I’m a bit of a loner, lol. 

Yes, so i have 2 best friends that i speak to pretty much each and every single day. Email is like talk radio. People will tune in each day if you educate, inspire, and entertain. 

This is how you build your fan base / your following / your tribe. Don’t mistake this for just trying to be fun and educate, sell. Sell each day, everytime you mail sell something that will help your people… 
I know my e-mail is super-uber-responsive because i talk in a way which adds value, i am their friend, trusted adviser and teacher. 

Here’s a little pic of ONE of my lists and you can see ABOVE, the response rate. I can get as much as 19.31% OPEN Rate on a “Mass E-mail List”… Where industry average – even for “Guru” marketers, get 3% – 7%. Below is just TWO different lists i own…
This proves my e-mails work, on top of that – the daily revenue that my business EMPHASISES how i write – my emails turn into money… Each day i keep a close eye on the numbers and at the time of writing this you can see – these are daily numbers – sales – profits that i get notified DAILY on my phone…. Each day it’s an average of over $10,000+ PER DAY in revenue. 

It’s been like that for the last 300+ days… Magic happens when you can create money out of thin air like this.It’s all possible – don’t quit. Don’t stop.

Turning one-off visitors into leads who become RAVING fans and then loyal, raving BUYERS.Because of this – one of my highest paid clients has spent over $110,000 with me. Think about how powerful and effective that is…. There are a lot of people who talk the talk, i walk, eat & run the damn talk that i give… 

ACTUALLY Here’s just today’s income proof :

My Mantra : Build Your List Daily. Email Your List Daily. (I sometimes email 6-7 times per week~) mostly it’s 5-6 days per week, people unsubscribe and that’s ok too – i rather have less people that are more higher quality than just mass numbers. 

And i view it as their loss when they unsubscribe – you shouldn’t let unsubscribes or complaints hold you back – build your biz. build your tribe. Add value. Sell stuff. Get that money. it’s there. 

So DO IT!

11. Paid Advertising is the FASTEST way to grow your business
When i started out and didn’t have much money i wasted a lot of time on twitter and facebook, i should have found the resources to invest and master paid traffic… 

Ultimately Paid Traffic – helped me make my first million in sales at i think 23 or 24 years old. I forgot when it was because i was too busy comparing myself to my friends who had made $50 million, another story for another day… 

Paid traffic is the fastest-scalable-most- predictable form of traffic for you to ca$h in. If I were to start all over today, I would use Solo-Ads & Fb Ads & maybe another 1-2 to rapidly grow my subscriber list, amplify my content to reach and impact more people, and sell more products and services.. 

Right now – my business is built on paid traffic which means each and every month i make consistent income – just last 12 months i’ve averaged over $300,000 per month in revenue – which works out to be over $10k per day for over 300+ days now.. 

M’A – thanks to God It’s NOT relied on Google, Facebook, Calling Cold Leads or Blogging, or SEO – simply me and my e-mail list.
12. The Power Of Simplification. Simply everything
Your home-biz.Your blog. Your team. Your processes. Your thinking.Your friends. Your life. Your payment system. Everything. Lol Simplify everything

I used to want to do local marketing, then niche sites, then software creation, and a whole bunch of other stuff…Now i stick to what i’ve mastered.High Ticket Direct Sales. Home Business. Driving Traffic. High-End Workshops. 

The more simple something is – the more easily you can scale it, granted it does get complicated, now i want to build a $50 million company in the next 3-5 years and now i have to become “corporate”, hire professionals xyz lol. 

Sounds icky-sucky – but i’m gonna embrace it. A lifestyle business can get you to a few million dollars just like how i have currently – so simplify.

13. Focus
As Dan Pena says you gotta have “Laser Beamed Focus”….This is the secret sauce behind every successful entrepreneur. When i stopped chasing 10 different ways to make money, and focused on 1-3  – that’s when i really hit it off..

Some people join 5-10 different home businesses rather than joining one or two and ACTUALLY making them work. Focus in chunks of 20 mins – 45 mins. Use a timer. Close the door.Go to starbucks. 

Get some quiet time. OR listen to some YouTube calm music with headphones and ZONE OUT.If you are all over the place – then focus. And tell yourself :I AM A GENIUS – I FOCUS AT WILL.That’s another one of my mantras
14. And most importantly… HAVE FUN
As much as i want to make $50 million and yada yada yada, i know deep down the real success is embracing the journey – going thru the challenges, going thru the ups and downs, learning, growing, adding value, stretching yourself to go to the next level…. 

The real success is the journey, i live each day as if it’s my last, i smile, laugh and make sure i have 
a f-ing good time. That’s why even now – i don’t always take things seriously lol.

You gotta smile, enjoy, live life as it’s meant to be lived. Life is NOT about being overwhelmed and stuck…Yes – you want to make a fortune – but remember the journey makes you who you are, 

i asked my best friend Masum, few days back what does he think of my success and such…He said – 'although the money is impressive, it’s who you’ve become in the process"… 

So, It’s not just about making millions, it’s who YOU become in the process… Be grateful. be happy. Stay present. Pray If you don’t pray, that's cool, I’ll pray for you. I pray for your success and your dreams. Intention is key, maybe another topic for another day.
