Like do not get scared on month two or month three that you haven't made money back because you need a sales cycle. You need to bring in the leads, nurture the leads and then convert.

I mean, even something like iSpeeds, their program, like relatively cheap leads for 30 bucks or whatever they are like, fine, do that. Don't go spend 15 grand on TV for one month and freak out and then go, I'm screwed, right?

You're at the point of scale. Tommy's at that point of scale. Most people, most are either just getting going or potentially growing, right? They've done five, 10, 15 deals.

I don't want to say respect to it, but like credence is a word that comes like you can't measure the stick to me. Sure. Right. I've done it for two decades. That's a long time.

But people don't look at it that the way they look at it, like, Oh, what happened this month or last month? Or how have I done so far this year? We're on April. Like, Guys, stop. Like what I would hope to encourage people listening and watching this right now is like, give yourself the runway to actually win, to be the next Tommy Hart, to be the next Justin Cole.

So if you're less than eight years and you're in eight days, eight minutes, eight months, give yourself the eight year runway to measure Tommy. Don't give yourself eight days, eight weeks, eight months. Give the runway he gave himself. Right. Like we talked about when we started his first deal, he lost six figures on, but he didn't give up on that. He didn't get knocked out. He got knocked down.
