Myron Golden, a well-known speaker, said once, "If you want to create wealth in your business and for you and your family, you have to increase the rate at which you generate revenue.

One of my favorite parts of Facebook is the “Memories” feature. This past week, Facebook just showed my memories from August 7th, 2014. That was the day me and my two business partners launched our first business together, Binary Trade Group. It was a monthly membership product where we provided a community, training and analysis to help day traders on a trading website called Nadex. I was super scared that day. My stomach was in knots. Yes, I was scared but also crazy excited. There’s nothing like the thrill of launching a new business or products. In 2014, I had ZERO online business experience or marketing knowledge. All I knew to do was put out the highest value content on YouTube/Facebook every day and hope it got seen. Our first full year in 2015, we crossed $100,000 in sales and in 2019, we hit $1,000,000 in total sales in less than 5 years. In the online business world we call that the “Two Comma Club”. This should be your short-term goal. Today, I’m sharing with you one of the greatest tips I can give a creator and the reason why we succeeded.
