Tai Lopez’s Mastermind Talk Recap This is a recap of the Mastermind Talk with Tai Lopez I attended in California. In addition to learning from the speakers a big benefit is to meet and hear from other entrepreneurs. Sometimes you realize really successful people are very much like you and thus you gain the confidence to achieve more. It is great to be around people who in my eyes are more successful than I am. It was also fun to hear new ideas, give advice and get advice. Jay Samit spoke to us – wikipedia info on Jay Samit – He asked us how many of you would hire a PR agency? I thought I wouldn’t until he explained why we should. You should if you want to partner with a company who has a PR agency and the tip is to higher the same PR agency as the other company you want to work with. Justin Sener – Known as the T-shirt Cat Guy, who is successful at selling t-shirts online. He talked about how to create T-shirts and how to market them on facebook. I noted that they create 10 T-shirts, market each on facebook for very little ($5) and then increase the marketing for the ones that sell. Tip – women buy the most t-shirts.
