The Most Dangerous Video

Wednesday, April 9th, 2008

I was originally planning to reveal the winner of last Friday’s contest, and share all the gory details of their story.

Truth is, I received a lot of incredible stories from you, but there was one CLEAR winner.

I’m gonna have to hold off on that for another day though – because, I just got word that a brand new video is now available for your viewing pleasure.

But, let me warn you.

This is NOT for the timid, or faint of heart.

I was recently interviewed by Devon White of PathBreaker TV, where I revealed a side of myself that no one has ever seen – until now.

Find out what I’m talking about by going here

You won’t have a difficult time finding this eye-opening resource.

It’s currently the premier video on the PathBreaker website.

Be sure to let me know what you think.

Dedicated to your success,

The Baby Waiting Game

Monday, April 7th, 2008

Here it is Monday morning, and we’re still playing the baby waiting game.

I honestly thought that Brock would join us over the weekend, but apparently, he has other plans.

Needless to say, it’s been quite an emotional experience for my wife Lisa.

It’s been a huge learning experience for me as well.

You see, I was scheduled to attend the HUGE Glazier-Kennedy Super Conference in Nashville, TN this last week.

In fact, I would’ve been flying home today.

But…

Because we’re so close to Lisa’s due date, and I didn’t want to miss the birth of my son, I cancelled my reservation for this event.

Sure, I missed out on an opportunity to get my hands on new information and meet new people that would allow me to grow my business even more.

But, because my family is so important, making the decision to stay home was a “no-brainer”.

Here’s another example:

Last Friday I had a bonus training call scheduled for my clients, which had to be postponed at the last minute, because we thought Lisa was in labor.

If you’ve been one of my clients for awhile, you know this was a first.

Until now, I’ve never cancelled or postponed a coaching call, training event or seminar-by-phone.

In fact, I’ve always prided myself on being a guy who is true to his word.

When I say I’m gonna do something, I do it… without fail.

As I sat here in my home office last Friday morning, preparing to host the training call for my clients, Lisa comes in and says, “Honey, I think it’s time”.

I immediately sprang out of my chair so I could put her bag in the Hummer, and get ready to leave for the hospital.

I sent off a quick email to my clients, letting them know what was going on, and told them that I’d have to postpone the training call (thank God for technology).

After several hours at the hospital, it became apparent that Lisa was in pre-labor, and Brock was not yet going to join us.

As I mentioned before, it was emotionally draining on Lisa (not to mention the fact that she was completely worn out), and she hated the thought of returning home without our new baby.

And as we were driving home, a fleeting thought entered my mind, “I hope none of my clients are upset because I had to postpone the training call”.

The more I thought about this, the more concerned I got.

But…

Once we returned home, and I had a chance to check my email, I was amazed to see the outpouring of love and concern that had been sent our way.

Not one person was upset.

Instead, they wanted to know if I was a father yet, and how Lisa and Brock were doing.

After reading through all the emails, and sharing them with Lisa, a feeling of gratitude and thankfulness came over me.

That’s why I want to take yet another opportunity to thank you for sending your well-wishes, and let you know that it means the world to Lisa and I.

It’s such a wonderful and humbling experience to be associated with such an incredible group of members and clients such as you.

I’ll continue to keep you updated, and let you know how things are going.

Dedicated to your success,

The Grandma Test

Friday, April 4th, 2008

One of the things I talk about from time to time is the importance of passing “The Grandma Test”.

The fact is, you wouldn’t tell your grandma to buy a product or service that was nothing but garbage – would you?

Of course you wouldn’t.

In fact, we’d do everything we could to protect our grandma from wasting her munee on such things.

And…

When it comes to bidness, you want to treat your prospects and customers just like they were your own family.

Just like you’d treat your own grandma.

But, when you take a look around, very few business owners subscribe to this way of thinking.

We’ve ALL had an experience where we were treated poorly.

In fact, I’m willing to bet that as you read this, a specific situation immediately came to your mind.

So here’s what I want to do.

It’s time to have a little fun.

I want you to take a moment to share your personal story, or your personal nightmare if that’s the case.

Send an email to Kevin@AutomaticIncomeSystem.com and tell me about the worst experience you’ve ever had with a business, and be sure to give me all the gory details.

I’ll then publish the best stories and share them with all of my members.

I’ll also choose the best story, and if it’s yours, you’ll win a very special gift from me.

Have fun with this, and I look forward to hearing from you.

Dedicated to your success,
Kevin Thompson

P.S. To be eligible for the prize give-away, I must receive your story by Monday.

Life Threatening Illness

Thursday, April 3rd, 2008

I recently got an email from Dawn Wilder (who’s one of my clients), and after reading her emotional story, I had to share it with you.

In it, she talks about “visualization”, which is something I do on a daily basis.

I also teach my clients how to do this for themselves.

And let me tell you…

Once you tap into the power of “visualization”, INCREDIBLE things will start happening in your life.

But – I don’t want to steal Dawn’s thunder, so take a look at what she has to say:

Hi Kevin,I want you to know how much I appreciate becoming one of your clients, investing in your system and getting to know you through your emails, newsletters and coaching program.

I have to be honest with you, I haven’t read every one of your emails, but I’ve saved all of them so I can read them soon.

I really appreciate your approach to marketing, and sending emails like we are your friends.

Showing us ultrasound photos of the baby, telling us your beautiful experiences during the process – they are wonderful, and we share in your happiness.

The monthly client newsletter you sent when my son was recently in the hospital helped all of us immensely during a difficult time in our lives.

My son was overwhelmed with being so ill, this young healthy guy who was dealing with a life threatening illness.

He was engaged and planning to get married in six weeks, yet he was so horribly sick.

I started asking him what he planned on doing when he felt better (just like you did with your wife when she was so scared during her pregnancy), so he would think about all the great things he could do with his beautiful fiancé when he was back to being himself.

I also started visualizing what I would do when my son was out of the hospital and healthy again.

I so much needed that “visualization” that you talked about. Thank you for that.
I want you to know that your emails have given me hope and even when I get overwhelmed, I now have the power to rise above it.

I keep coming back to your system. Your system and the lifestyle that comes with it is exactly what we want and deserve.

I hold onto my dreams, and look forward to living out of Michigan in the winter, preferably to Hawaii (the place I love). I love Michigan in the summer – no prettier place.

I want to spend more time with my children.

The two still at home are 11 and 14, and I want to spend plenty of quality time with them.

Thanks for all the encouraging wordls and being real. I look forward to hearing more from you.Sincerely, Dawn Wilder

When I receive letters like this, it makes my day.

I want to thank all of you who have been sending your thoughts and prayers our way as Brock prepares to join our family within the next week or so.

I can’t begin to tell you how thankful I am for the opportunity to make a difference in your life.

You can be sure that I’ve got plenty more good things to send your way.

And yes, I’ll be sure to let you know when Brock is born.

Because so many of you have been asking, I’ll also be sure to send you some photos as well.

Dedicated to your success,
Kevin Thompson

The Moment Of Truth

Wednesday, April 2nd, 2008

If you’ve ever seen the hit Fox TV show, “The Moment of Truth”, you know that it can get REALLY crazy.

It amazes me what people are willing to endure, when presented with the opportunity to win $500,000.00.

On this show, the contestants are put on a lie detector and asked 50 extremely personal questions.

It’s bad enough that it’s all happening “live” on National television.

To make matters worse, it’s also happening right in front of the contestant’s closest friends and family, who are on the show as well.

If the contestant is caught in a lie, they loose everything.

On a recent episode, a female contestant was asked, “Would you respect your husband more if he made more munee?”

You could tell that the question made her feel completely uncomfortable, and as I watched, I actually thought that she might choose not to answer it, which would mean that she’d have to forfeit her winnings, and walk away with nothing.

But…

To my surprise, she eventually answered “yes”.

And when she did, you could see the disappointment on her husband’s face.

He couldn’t make eye contact with her, and you could tell that he was totally devastated.

I felt so sorry for him.

As a husband myself, who has a wife and four children (with another one on the way), I can only imagine how much pain this guy was feeling at that moment.

Here he was on national television, feeling like a complete failure, in front of the entire country.

We guys pride ourselves on being hard working dudes who are responsible for supporting our family.

And it pains us deeply if we’re not providing them with all the things they need.

I can remember the many sleepless nights I spent – worrying about how I was going to pay my bills and support my family.

I got so sick of feeling this way, that it motivated me to get off my butt, take matters into my own hands, and do WHATEVER needed to be done in order to fix this situation.

So let me ask you:

If you’re a guy reading this, what would your wife’s (or significant other’s) answer be?

And if you’re a gal reading this, what would your answer be?

Would it be “yes” or “no”?

Because the truth is, almost every woman’s answer would have to be “Yes.”

Make no mistake about it, the most important skill you’ll EVER learn is how to make munee.

Yet most people don’t realize it’s a skill.

And most people don’t realize that it’s a skill that can easily be learned.

As one of my members, you’re already on the path to mastering this skill.

All you have to do now is take the next step by Going Here.

Dedicated to your success,
Kevin Thompson

Why Would He Do That?

Tuesday, April 1st, 2008

Yesterday morning I got up bright and early to head to the airport.

And no, I wasn’t leaving on a trip this time – I was actually going to pick up a client for a day of consulting.

The particular client hopped on a plane in Southern California, bright and early in the AM, so he come up to Seattle and spend a day working “on” his business.

While most business owners spend all their time working “in” their businesses, we smart entrepreneurs understand that the best use of our time is spent working “on” our business.

I picked Daron (my client) up from Sea-Tac Airport at about 9 in the AM.

On the 1-hour drive to my house, we laid out our game plan for the day, so that once we arrived, we could get right to it.

To make a long story short, we spend the entire day brainstorming and strategizing on how he would take his own business to the next level… and beyond.

And make no doubt about it, Daron is now armed with the tools needed to make it happen.

Now…

Just in case you’re wondering, why would a guy hop on a plane and fly all the way to Seattle to spend a day with Kevin at his home office – let me point out one thing.

Successful entrepreneurs do this kind of thing all the time.

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve traveled across the country in order to meet with someone that I KNEW could help improve my business.

And yes, it requires a substantial investment, in both time and munee to do so.

But…

Every time I’ve done so, it’s lead to HUGE breakthrough’s and major growth in my business.

This was the first time I’ve ever done a “live” day of consulting for a client, but after seeing the value he received from the day, I may decide to offer this service to a few select clients in the future.

I hope that when it comes to YOUR business, you have the same mindset as Daron, and are willing to do whatever it takes.

That you’re committed to your goals.

That you’re a DOER.

Dedicated to your success,
Kevin Thompson
