That's right, dear reader: just eight weeks left until Christmas, and I'm sure you want to make A LOT OF MONEY.

Well, good thing you're down here in the Offline subforum. It's where the smartest people on the forum hang out when it comes to giving business advice. The ones with real startup experience. I can say this as a contributor for the past dozen-plus years.

So now that you know there's no better place to hang out to get life-changing business information...

...what's your plan to get that Big Time Christmas Money?

The first thing I recommend is that you get REAL SPECIFIC about that money target. "As much money as I can make" is no target at all..and get this: no good for your subconscious! Your mind needs a specific target.

Make sure this number is realistic for you, yet still exciting.

Next, think about how many sales you'll need to make and at what price point to hit that magic money target.

So say you want to make an extra $2000 by December 22nd (this is easy in North America).

What price point are you comfortable selling at?

$1000 is just 2 sales.

$500 is only 4 sales.

$50 is 40 sales and my advice is to stay away from this arrangement unless you have an already-hungry audience of 500+ people who know ya.

As a startup, it doesn't matter that no one has heard of you when it comes to actually making a sale...but it does matter in that it's probably going to take longer to make those sales.

The reason I'm getting you to look at all this is so that you UNDERSTAND THE GAME THAT YOU'RE PLAYING.

There are a lot of people out there flying blind. They got sucked into some kind of affiliate thing where they're promised $20 a sale for "doing nothing"...and then expect the money to roll in. Well, how many sales at $20 does it take to hit $2000? Too darn many for the time we have available, in my humble opinion! So stay away from that kind of thing.

Understand what you're doing and you'll have clarity on action and results.

Now that you understand the numbers, you can pick your offer.

See how this is the opposite of the way people, broke people, normally go after choosing what they're doing?

Can you believe in the numbers?

Can you get the results in the time available?

We've answered these critical questions, and can now build or pick an offer that is around this price point and velocity.

My off-the-cuff choice: sell 4 X $500 websites in those 8 weeks. That gives you 2 weeks apiece to dig for, uncover, sell and get started on delivering for those customers.

This is easy.

It's plenty of time, if you're taking action.

What Kind of Action?

Prospecting. Outreach. Use the Search function and seek instructions on how to do so from in this subforum if you don't know how. We've been sharing proven methods since, well, for me, 2011. I have videos posted on here from back then with stuff that still works just fine, thank you very much.

The Big Question is...will you get off your butt and DO IT?

I routinely sell $12000, $20000 websites. These are easy for me. I'll keep $3400 or so, typically, and so I know for a fact that the $500 sites are easy as pie to sell, provided you get the right kind of customer on the line.

Don't like web design? Fine, we've got plenty of other services and offers for you to pick from. Just make sure you do the work of looking at your money tolerance, price point, velocity first, before you rush out there and pick an offer to promote.

The Plan is more important than the offer. I hope I've emphasized that enough. You have to pick a target that you can actually achieve, both in a monetary sense and in the time available. THEN pick something to sell that fits.

As far as the how to's of selling...just ask. The more specific you can be the better, as we have quite a few highly experienced professionals in here as I noted above.

It's up to you. No one is going to hand it to you, but it is right there for you to take. It's not even that challenging. But will you choose to do it?
