When we released it, we had our core<br />
group of people and these guys were<br />
like this all around here, Simon and<br />
Jeremy Gislason, Simon Hodgkinson and<br />
Jeremy Gislason, John Thornhill, and JP<br />
McGarrett. These guys were kind of the<br />
people that we support and then when<br />
we launched, they supported us like<br />
crazy. So it was basically just getting<br />
people that we know but having a core<br />
group of people that you know.<br />
I think things have changed a lot now. If<br />
you have a look, it’s getting increasingly<br />
easy for people to release products and<br />
for people to release good products. I<br />
mean there’s a lot of products coming<br />
out and I think like last week, there were<br />
50 and a lot of those people are people<br />
that I know and so really, it gets harder<br />
and harder now to choose who you’re<br />
going to support, who you’re going to<br />
have to say “Sorry, we are good friends<br />
but I just can’t support this one. I don’t<br />
have the space,” and try not to piss too<br />
many people off.<br />
But things have changed<br />
now and so there are a lot<br />
of opportunities for you to know<br />
thousands of people who are<br />
creating products because there<br />
are literally thousands of people<br />
out there, but it’s important for<br />
you to remember who your core<br />
people are and so you<br />
have to build your group as<br />
a product launcher.<br />

with those people that can do 2 or 3<br />
cells but make it your focus to try and<br />
really target and become friends like<br />
actual real care about people kind of<br />
friends, not just about the money. With<br />
the core group of people like even ten<br />
people, have like 10, 20 people that you<br />
connect with, you actually care about,<br />
and you want to work with them, and<br />
build your businesses together. There are<br />
like mastermind groups out there where<br />
you can join and then it’s a commitment,<br />
everyone supports each other, and they<br />
sometimes work. So if you just have your<br />
core group of affiliates and products<br />
created in the same mindset as you,<br />
building their businesses, and not just<br />
slacking off and relying on everyone else<br />
to promote willy-nilly, they’re actually<br />
investing in creating good products,<br />
then you’re going to be awesome.<br />
Carl Picôt: Right, brilliant. Okay, so how<br />
would you suggest to somebody that<br />
didn’t have one of these groups, how to<br />
approach somebody in a non-selfish way<br />
-- so you’re thinking the end goal or the<br />
underlining goal is “Oh I need someone<br />
to promote my stuff so I’m going to get<br />
to know you” but genuinely put that to<br />
one side and help these people. I mean<br />
how could somebody with a smaller list<br />
who’s not quite as well known, maybe<br />
they haven’t even released a product<br />
