What Does $1 Million Mean to You?

It is 3 am on a Wednesday, and I know I have to be up in three hours. Why am I making the sacrifice? How hard would it be to say "F**k This" and go to bed? I just finished another post.

I am hawking my book and Wealthy Affiliate. To what lengths are you willing to go to Make $1 Million?

Have you ever done the math?

To make a million dollars a year from a $270 creative product with a 2.5% purchase rate, here's how it breaks down:

• Annual Revenue Goal: $1,000,000
• Price of the Creative Product: $270
• Number of Sales Needed: 3,704 Sales (rounded up for simplicity). It only takes 150 to get to Las Vegas! You will have $1 million/yr coming in in about 25 years. This seems like an awful lot of sales in a year. Kyle will also tell you that we are closing at 8%, but bear with me.
• Yearly Visitors Needed: 148,160 visitors to achieve 3,704 sales at a 2.5% conversion rate.
• Monthly Visitors Needed: Approximately 12,347 visitors per month.
• Daily Visitors Needed: Around 412 visitors per day, which means you need to average about 10 sales per day.

Now, let's get real.

Do you think 412 visitors a day sounds like a lot?

Here's a wake-up call for you: You've spent your whole life chasing the American Dream, working jobs you hate, for bosses who don't care, just to make ends meet. You've given years to the daily grind, hoping for that one big break, that promotion, that raise. But when it comes to building something for yourself, when the path to millions is laid out in front of you, suddenly it's "too much work", "too many visitors", or "not quick enough"?

You're willing to sacrifice 60 hours a week for a paycheck that's just enough, but not willing to dedicate the time to learn, to grow, to attract those visitors? You'll sit through meetings you don't care about, but not sit down to write a blog post or learn some SEO.

Here's the truth

Building an online business, like anything worth doing, takes time. It's not about instant gratification or the next get-rich-quick scheme.

It's about commitment, learning from failures, adjusting your strategy, and growing your audience. You're looking at 412 visitors a day like it's an insurmountable mountain, but remember, every mountain is climbed one step at a time. You start with content, with SEO, with social media. You learn from each visitor and each interaction. And yes, the first year you might make $10,000, that doesn't replace your salary, but stick with it.

By year two, you could be looking at $100,000. Year three? $150,000. Year four? $800,000. By year five, we're talking about $1 million.

But no, that's "too long."

You'd rather go back to the same old, same old, hoping for a different result.

Here's a thought: If you're ready to give up after a few months, you've already lost. Because those who persevere, who see the vision, who work through the night when they have to - they're the ones who will wake up to find their dream life waiting for them.

So, how many visitors do you get to your website? And more importantly, what are you doing to increase that number? Because here's the beautiful thing: once you get those subscribers, they renew, year after year, in perpetuity. Do it one time, and you're set for the rest of your life.

The Road to $1 Million

Don't let the fear of hard work stop you from achieving what you're truly capable of. The road to a million dollars isn't paved with shortcuts; it's built with dedication, learning, and persistence. So, are you going to keep sleeping through your potential, or are you ready to wake up and make it happen?

But the thing here is, you'll go to work for sixteen years, but you won't stick it out for two years to make substantially more than you made with your degree. Like really, it takes longer than two weeks to build a substantial income for yourself, doing something completely unknown to you, that you have to figure out along the way, that you can see incredible results within 1 to 2 years.

But nah, I am going to bed...
