I dont know if you can see the subtitle of this email (up there), but if you can, that explains it all, much like with all my workouts.

If you can boil it all down …

Two things.

One, as the great sage Emerson rightly said, do the thing and you shall the power and TWO – hard work – PERSISTENCE – as Napoleon Hill was fond of saying “is truly to man’s character what carbon is to … STEEL!”

Truly, there is no substitute for persistence and hard work – not the Bozo style “nose to the grindstone” hard work, but inspired hard work.

Anyway, lets put the Bozos and Schofields in Brum aside for now.

(he’s gone curiously silent again, by the way.)

Let’s address two great questions here!

One being “how do I keep going with all the shit that keeps getting thrown at me” question that John Walker once asked, and a variant of that i.e. “how do I write so much!”

And how do I keep to schedules etc.

And two, and a connected question – and one that Fotis asked me (Fotis, the guy I introduced … today? Seems like forever, hehe, with all the emails I’ve been sending – hey, what I can say. You signed up for one a day, you get 10! “I email above average” as a customer nicely put it – I’d say WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY above average!”

Thats part of the secret, of course, to building a highly engaged list, but that ain’t all.

Anyway, lets address #1 first.

The first part – all the trolling, all the crap thrown at me?

I just throw it right back at them x 10000!

Like Trump said – attack back x 100000!

Thats what I do, if you’d boil it down.

And, I use the troll attacks to make sales etc -which this list is well familiar with (for those not, do a search on Bozo Schofield, and you’ll see. He’s famous on Google now to, hehe).

Best troll ever, and has made me a TON of sales. . . (Glyn, if you’re reading this, gotta say – thank you!)

But two, the “finding inspiration” thing.

Here’s the bottom line.

IT may sound anything but purdy to most, but here it is – it boils down to what Charles the former friend so famously once hated.

“You just say just do it”, he once wailed.

Well, thats what it boils down to.

I dont always have inspiration bubbling around inside of me, my friend – I often and usually do yes, and it just all pours out of me naturally, and you hear it.

But there are times – in fact, even days when I’m cranky as heck, and nothing “flows”.

What then?

Do I just say “I’ll take a break”?

Hell no!

I sit down and write anyway, and once I do, the flow returns – the Mojo returns!

I dont make excuses. I don’t brook ’em either, neither should YOU!

Either fitness wise or life wise or email wise, or biz wise!

Anyway, the second question Fotis (I know I said I’d mention him once, but he’s a great dude, and asked a great question, and plus anyone on Ben’s list for the long term is a DOER! – else Ben wouldn’t have him) asked was this …

How do you grow your list. I’m particularly interested in you since you’re an aggressive emailer and I’d guess you get more than average unsubscribes. So I’d like to discover what you do for list building.

Cheers.

Well, those on this list know how – most of it. Hehe.

But, lots of people have asked this question in different ways …. so here goes!

Hi Fotis

I dont really use any “special technique” for list building. I’ve been in this biz for years – the only real marketing I do is … well, what I do via emails! Thats really where the money comes – true, I’m all over the Internet too – which is another tactic you can use down the line, but most importantly, I (and my site) have been around for ages, plenty of customers etc, so thats really all the publicity I need in terms of list building (other than the obvious like paid ads, social media etc … (but to be honest – social media is mostly BS. I’m on there yes, but for other purposes than just list building. It’s not that great for building lists etc to be honest! In fact, as my followers know I QUIT all social media last year. I still refuse to use Freakbook (Facebook), haha).

So it’s all writing – daily emails – and my books/courses (to back the talk up) – – and it builds from there.

(and having quality people, referrals, reviews etc on your site – Googles pretty smart these days – hence the suggestion of “linking Rahul Mookerjee” – auto gives you more cred with Google)

(I’ve got an I.T. background in case you’re wondering, haha).

Yes, slow and steady – and didnt happen in a day, but neither was Rome (or a great body) built in a day!

The last email was one on grip training – I did up a PS though which said “I’m going to introduce …ah, but I’ll let you read it yourself – https://rahulmookerjee.com/index.php/blog/item/672-the-blue-fat-gripz-report (if you look through both the sites – I can’t remember which one – there was an email where I promised to give my list feedback on the new “Fat Gripz” I bought, which arrived this morning, so thats what I did. Hehe).

Great training – especially on thick bars! I’m sure you know that though.

And yes – all about relationship building especially in this biz and others too – so thanks for the kind words – glad I was able to help out! Yes, I would never introduce someone unless they were the real deal at least in SOME regards, and if they are/were – well, I’ll always do up an intro – it just feels more natural – just like if I was “talking” to someone!

I’m sure I’m not telling you anything you have not already learned from Ben, hehe. Shout out to him as well – if you’re on his list – write to him and let him know – he’s the real deal!

Cheers

Rahul

For reference – the “kind words” part – he like dthe intro I did for him, but hey, all good bro!

The last email part – well, it was that email on fat gripz where I “pre introduced him”.

(Guys – if you’ve been to his site – write back – let me know what you thought! I saw plenty of people clicked through, so probably people HAVE been…)

And yes, despite the hordes of followers on Freakbook, I abandoned it last year after Zucko Sucko pulled the China pandering BS on me and refused my goose and gander argument.

Fuck ’em.

Maybe I’ll get on there again now that they’re starting to at least “allow” posts about COVID etc.

but really, after what social she-dia did to Trump last year, and after all their leftist pandering … I’m still on some, but it’s certainly not to build the list!

Anyway, I hope this email gave y’all some value. I think it does – if you look within!

Best,

Rahul Mookerjee

PS – Before I forget, in all the bedlam, a rock of “calm and symphony” as it were, almost an oasis – that ONE Collector’s copies of Fast and Furious Fitness – still remaining ! If you want it – get it now – no more reprints once done. And yes, it WILL turn you into a human leopard or close to it if yo ujust “do” the thing.

(no handholding or pandering tho. if thats you – stay away. not wanted, hehe).

(And if you’re doer, head on over there – – NOW!!!!)

PPS – As he rightly said, I get plenty of unsubscribes. Rahul Mookerjee ain’t everyone’s cup of tea. You either love me or you hate me, and the former category is a very small but rabid one. The latter is far bigger, equally rabid, but can’t back their talk or actions up. And if you’re in the latter category, please dont whine about “why do you write about china” and “can I tell your readers how to get the best home loan” and other rubbish that people send in through the contact form (I mean really, guys. Do y’all even read!) – just UNSUBSCRIBE and thats that. NO drama please!

Hi, Getting a home loan as a freelancer or contract employee is no easy feat. That’s why I am writing a piece that details what the “self-employed” need to know before they apply for a mortgage. Would you be interested in posting it on your site for your readers if I send it over when I’m done? Hope to hear from you! <Bozo name chopped>
