LL 012: A Live Limitless Interview with the Empire Flippers

by Matt 4 Comments

In the twelfth episode of the Live Limitless podcast I chat with Joe Magnotti & Justin Cooke from EmpireFlippers.com.

Justin and Joe are two guys from the U.S. who decided they wanted to start their own business and move to a developing country. They both craved the sense of adventure that only travel can provide but had to figure out a way to make it happen. After leaving their management positions in America, they rented a house in the Philippines and started building what is now called Empire Flippers; a company that allows them to build targeted niche sites and sell them to investors. Not only did they take their new business from $30 per month to $200,000 during the year of 2012 but they also give away all their tips and “secrets” for free at their site.

In this episode, we talk about:
  • Empire Flippers and what it’s all about
  • What made them want to leave the U.S. and move to the Philippines
  • Whether they had any doubts
  • Whether they think niche sites are a good way for people to get started in online business
  • Whether their mindset has changed since moving to a developing country
  • What led them to choosing “niche sites” as part of their business model
  • The “dare” that ended up turning into a sold-out boxing arena with Joe in the ring
  • And MUCH more…

A Year in Reflection + Goal Setting for 2011

by Matt 3 Comments

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!

Okay first off I should warn you that this post is around 1700 words. I seem to be writing longer posts than usual over the holidays. I like it but I don’t know if you like it. I wrote a guest post for another site the other day and it was around 1900 words! This post is basically a summary of accomplishments from 2010 and a summary of what I want to accomplish in 2011. I’d also like to hear what some of your goals are in the comments. It’s good to lay them out for others to read. It makes one feel a little more accountable.

So before we launch into the New Year with resolutions a blazin’, it’s a good idea to sit back and reflect on the year past. Review all the accomplishments you’ve had and go over what went good and what didn’t.

Congratulate yourself on all the things you feel you accomplished and most importantly, learn from the mistakes. Have some long-term goals in mind as well so you know what each little accomplishment is really working up to.

Consider writing down a lifestyle change you wish to make on top of the specific goals. For example, rather than just writing “quit smoking”, write about become a healthier person and living a healthy lifestyle. This means quitting smoking, becoming more active, and eating healthy.

Now to reflect on 2010. [Read more…] about A Year in Reflection + Goal Setting for 2011
