Subject: How to Take Money.
For those of you who don’t already know, I’m a Professional Money Taker. Which is another way of saying that my expertise is closing deals. Getting people to take money out of their wallet and give it to me for something they want and need. It’s a skillset I was born with a natural aptitude for, but I have also worked incredibly hard to develop it.
This is what I do.
I live and breathe it.
I don’t care about anything else. I don’t want to do anything else. I don’t think about anything else.
I close deals.
Get on the phone with me and I will either take your soul or your money - but probably both.
I’ve gone head to head with high level lawyers, construction workers, business guys, accountants, people from all walks of life. I don’t give a fuck who is on the phone with me. It’s my call. It’s my deal. You stepped in my ring, let’s go.
At the age of 17 I got started in network marketing. Realised I could talk. Then I sold gym programs in high school. I sold an idea into a billion dollar company at the age of 20. I sold SEO to construction businesses. Cold called thousands of people from my mum’s storage room for an entire year straight while sleeping on her floor. I’ve put in reps on the phone.
As I got older and more experienced with life, I also realised I was quite sensitive to the emotions and characters of people. How they sounded when they spoke, what they did, their body language. I’m hyper sensitive to all of it. So one day I decided to cash in on this skillset and develop it to the highest possible level so I could leverage it for wealth building.
Now I am here, and pretty good at what I do, but still only just beginning a long and lucrative career that I care about deeply….because to me it is more than just taking money and stacking benjamins. It’s about mastering a craft, being Elite, and enjoying the respect that comes from this. There’s a lot of salespeople in this world, but there are very few money takers. Men or women who live and breathe the game. Who obssess over deals they lost and ruthlessly analyse why it didn’t come through.
There’s a simple difference between the real dealers and the pretenders, and it’s called obsession. When I am at my desk smoking cigars, working away, and looking down at a watch that costs more than the average man’s car - it feels good to be immersed in something that owns my soul. Some days I want to throw my computer at a wall. Some days I feel like I can walk through walls. But it all balances out, as do all things in this Universe.
Moving forward I will be publishing a lot more work around this specific skillset and how I do what I do.
Closing is a skillset that has changed my entire life, and my approach to life. It has made me ruthless, relatively wealthy for my age group, and given me a strong sense of purpose. I don’t have weekends. I don’t usually know what day it is. All I do is work on getting better.
This article is specifically about the Mind Game of sales, the mindset of money taking, and it is the first of many pieces to come around my work in sales and what I have to share with you.
At this present moment in time, there’s about 37.8 million cunts out there on earth making money off teaching sales without actually doing sales, and I don’t want to be one of those. As long as I am writing about this shit, I am living and breathing it. Closing daily. Taking money. Taking souls.
So what does it mean to be a Professional Money Taker?
It means you possess the ability to use your mind and your mouth to get someone to give you their money at will, or do something you want them to do without them even knowing who you are. It means someone can get on a call with you and tell you they just want information, and will not be doing anything - then after 30 minutes they are giving you their credit card details for thousands of dollars.
This might sound brutal. It might sound harsh. You might think I am some kind of criminal because I speak so coldly about taking people’s money. You might think I am evil, you might call me evil. You might never want to read my work again, in which case you can fuck off.
But I’m not evil, just a man who enjoys sinning and grinning. Sales is a beautiful thing. It’s cold, makes you ruthless, and you can either get the deal over the line or you can’t. Some people just can’t hack it, most are average at it, and others go on to become RICH because they understand what I am about to tell you…
It’s all a facade. An illusion. A game of shadows. A manipulation of energy and controlling the flow of that energy…Because money isn’t real. Few understand this.
Sales is about assisting a person to make the decision to transfer their cash into another form of value, because that other form of value which they desire will be more productive in their life than the cash itself, which is purely a means of exchange that is designed to be traded for something else, and that is precisely what you are helping them to do - make a purchasing decision.
First things first to become a professional money taker at the highest level, you need to understand that money is not real and that you are playing a game. Once you understand that money is purely pieces of paper and numbers on a screen, then you can muster the confidence to ask for large sums of it from people over a call or in a meeting.
You can’t be afraid to ask for money. That’s the essence of the game. But to be able to do that, you need to understand what it is and is not, otherwise you will just be like everyone else - and everyone else is pretty fucking average.
Money does not exist. You need to realise this. People are afraid to spend money because they don’t understand this. They think it is something scarce that can’t be gotten again once gone. Part of being a professional money taker is helping people overcome this belief and confidently hand over their cash because you have programmed into their mind that they CAN make it back, and will. I mean most of them won’t. But at least you tried.
You’ll hear a lot of successful people tell you that you should learn sales, they say it’s the most important skill in business.
Few talk about why it is the most important skill though.
So let me tell you;
The most important factor in a business growing and thriving is having CASH FLOW.
What is Cash Flow?
It is the flow of cash (energy) from a customer into the business, that the business then uses as energy to continue growing and operating. This is the exact and only function of a sales professional aka money taker. You TAKE money (energy) because the business needs it as fuel, and that is why sales is the most fundamental skill in business. Because without cash flow and without sales and without that transfer of energy, you don’t have a business. You just have a dead idea, which remains dead until cash energy has been pumped into it through sales.
Professional money taking requires balls, grit, mental toughness and a lot of the skills that a successful business requires.
And like I already said, most people don’t have what it takes…
Why?
Because taking money professionally is often a difficult and emotionally tiring process. The internet is full of shitmunchers trying to tell you the easiest way to make money online is high ticket sales, and as a result there’s a lot of people out there who think they are professional money takers.
To BE a pro though, requires more than doing some course or watching a youtube video.
It requires an investment of pain, time, dedication, hard work. It requires all of you. It’s a total shift in mindset, lifestyle and perspective…because you have to walk the walk, not just talk the talk. You have to understand money. You have to BE next level, not just pretend to be.
Nothing will teach you more about human nature, the reality of people, and how to see through bullshit more than becoming a professional money taker. You develop a sharply attuned mind to words, tonality, body language and emotion. You start to understand the flow of money. You start to see how business works. Then you can apply it to becoming wealthy yourself.
Nice guys don’t make it. Weekend warriors don’t make it. Half assed Harry’s don’t make it.
Only those who are dedicated and ruthless get to experience what it is like to go from call to call, taking thousands of dollars through the phone, making more money than most people earn each month…in a single day…with nothing but their voice.
To be successful at taking money, you must be successful at taking souls, and to do that requires you to be a man who has genuinely LIVED life and done real shit.
When you have been at the extremes. Low and high. When you have suffered and overcome, seen the darkness and the light - you can have genuine conversations with people, and you can take control of their mind on a call.
If all you have done with your life is suck milk from your mum’s titties and play video games, then good fucking luck commanding the respect required to take money from other humans.
Genuine skill and life competence are essential factors in being able to get on the phone with someone who has never spoken to you before, and within 45 minutes have them giving you their money.
It cannot be faked, even if what you are selling is fake.
That’s why I love it, because not everyone can do it. Yet it is a skill that will change your life and serve you for life if you commit to mastering it…because sales puts you at the intersection of all financial transactions, which is a great way to stack cash for yourself.
Over the coming months I will delve into this more.
I will teach you some of the secrets, but not all, because there are some things which cannot be taught…only discovered and earnt through effort.
Maybe I will even write a book and make my own course, so I can take your money too.
We’ll see…
