I have a week they said

My financial advisors are throwing a fit.   They said something about ‘ROI, blah, blah, blah, are you crazy, blah, blah, blah, consistent income, blah, blah, blah, giving away the farm, blah, blah, blah. ‘  I don’t know…I kind of tuned them out as you can tell.  Here is the basic version of the market analysis they went on to show me about ‘similar companies in this market space’…kind of hard to argue with them (of course, since they are financial advisors, this is all about money – but even with that said, our content & community Rocks!):

Now, I told them, in all fairness – each of these sites offers unique content (well, except for Company B that is just a bunch of old content put together in a new way)…and it depends upon what & who the seller wants to learn from. 

The conference I agreed with – heck, some of the 20 hours of content are the exact same speakers we have on Rock Stars and you get to listen in the comfort of your home (& listen/watch as many times as you want)…so yes, I would definitely understand comparing that one. 

And Company C is pretty similar in customers, but totally different view points on ‘Selling on eBay VS Running a business’.  So to compare Rock Stars with them is the old apples and oranges story – one of us teaches about listing and the other teaches about running a business.

I told them…’I want people to Choose Success and become Rock Stars, not because you told them to from some analysis…but because we DO have the best speakers, they DO have Live access to me, our Rock Stars DO an amazing job networking, they HAVE increased their business (some by 400%!!), they ARE getting incredible amounts of traffic from Rock Stars into their businesses, and they ARE getting pushed up on the Google rankings by participating.

I think there was more, something involving mud wrestling and a 3 on 3 shoot out…but I zoned out.  The good news is that I talked them into a week’s leeway time so that I could let you know that the great $297 deal is getting pulled off the table.  SO you have exactly 7 days to save BIG bucks and Choose Success and become one our incredible Rock Stars.

For those of you who may not yet know what Rock Stars is…I have only 7 days to teach you all of the amazing benefits you will receive for being a Rock Star.   OSI Rock Stars started with the Online Success Institute (OSI) where we would interview experts about how eBayers could achieve Success online.  Due to incredible demand, those Live classes were recorded and then put up together on a membership site called OSI Rock Stars where members can listen to the replays 24/7.  OSI Rock Stars is now:

·        Over 100 hours of Success content - topics range from setting up your eBay Store for more profit to search engine optimization to taxes & legal issues to advanced marketing online.  Janelle’s vast network of guests include Seth Godin, Cliff Ennico, Reiva Lesonsky, Catherine Seda, Griff, and many more notables in the eBay and ecommerce world.  Special representatives from top companies with topics include Researching for Profit with Terapeak, Sourcing profitable products with WorldWideBrands, Advanced utilization of eBay Stores as well as many other tools that will increase your success (including a special quarterly class taught by the eBay Stores team)

·        Exclusive Success Training – monthly you will have a rare all access VIP pass to Live training including: Q&A with Janelle, Success profit coaching with the Auction Listing Coach, and in-depth training on Success subjects (Janelle just finished a 4-hour training on Profitable Keywords that increased participants profits on eBay by as much as 120%)

·        Community – a unique, supportive community of like-minded Success entrepreneurs who are incredibly active on the site, forums and co-promoting each others business.

There are many other features including 24/7 access to education, over 10 hours of additional content being added monthly (usually it’s around 16-20), marketing for your business due to the high seo rankings that OSI Rock Stars has achieved, and more.  But I think your decision shouldn’t be made from the features of the site, but rather what others have achieved from being members.  You can find this information at:

We’ve been working hard over at Rock Stars teaching everyone how to handle the new eBay site/fee changes.  One of the big ones is a recent class we did about the new amazing benefits of being a PowerSeller.  As a PowerSeller with high enough DSR’s…I just started getting an additional 15% back off of my FVF’s!!  Head over to Rock Stars – we’ll teach you how to do it too.

Help US Help YOU

Rock Stars – I have put in over 50 hours of research to put together the webinars you have been attending having to do with the fee/site changes…and I am thrilled to hear how much they are paying off for you already.  I will be very proud when I can show eBay in 6 months that all of my Rock Stars are getting the 15% discount due to their persistence to Choose Success and believe in their dreams.

But, we want to make sure Rock Stars is EVERYTHING you need it to be to assist in your adventures of Success.  Please click the ‘help’ button in the top right corner and let us know what you would like…a speaker, a class topic, a handout, a video how-to, and Jamie would love to do a monthly motivational book club if you are interested.  Rock Stars is all about YOU and your Success…if you Choose it, we’ll make darn sure you get there!
