Okay, I think we're live guys.   So, you know, you didn't even know about it. I didn't know it was gonna actually be live. It's not supposed to be live. This is kind of a private thing where I'm just talking to Ridgely. But you guys are gonna get a medium in just a second. And I gotta tell you, man, Ridgely is a really super cool guy. He's really chill. He's always happy. I mean, I love being around this guy and I've been at a couple of events with him.  He's a best-selling author. You know, it's just, he has such a great positive attitude. He's written 17 books. Get this, 17 books. All about the human condition, emotional intelligence, you know, a bunch of success principles that all you guys can really use, which is pretty darn cool. And I see a couple of you guys are jumping in right now. Hey, Mito, what's going on, man? You're in Connecticut. Good to see you. No, I forgot to ask you if you guys could hear me. That's so silly, right? Make sure you can hear me because like I said, this is kind of an impromptu thing. I was gonna record this and let some other people see it, but you guys actually snuck in here and you're actually gonna get to actually meet Ridgely in just a second, which is really cool. Now, let's do, get this guys. He's generated in excess of $50 million in sales. Hey, Mito.  Make sure you can hear me. I would really appreciate that. But what he's gonna talk about is something all you guys need to know. I mean, he calls it JV hacking, but basically it's how to sell your products out there in the market and get other people to help you sell those products. So it's gonna be super cool. And I wanna check and see if he's gotten in there yet. Ridgely, have you gotten online? Hey, Tammy, what's going on? Tammy from Ohio just jumped in. She just met me on the airplane from San Diego. Look at that. Yes, I remember you, Tammy. You're the exercise. Yes, yes, very cool. Well, Tammy, you're gonna meet one of the people that I was with in Florida. So Ridgely, you're there. You said you can hear me. I can hear you perfectly, brother. Sounds great. Awesome, awesome. Now you're up in what Los Angeles right now, right? I'm in LA in Marina Del Rey right now looking at the Marina Canal. It's beautiful, great day, and it's a lot better than the 11 degrees in Kansas City that my brother was enjoying that he told me about. Oh my gosh. You said that two thirds of the United States is in freezing conditions. Two thirds, and we're like, I'm insane. Yeah, it's like 70s here in San Diego. Hey, can I ask you some questions, Ridgely? Sure, of course.   Well, so my partner Glenn and I have been doing launches for a really long time and he's been super successful with launches as have I, and we decided we'd write a book about the whole thing. We said we'd write a book about how to do joint ventures, how to do joint venture launches, how to do affiliate marketing so that we could really help the industry out, help other entrepreneurs, and also, as you know, the rising tide raises all ships. So the more successful entrepreneurs that are out there, the more successful entrepreneurs we can partner with and everybody wins. So we walked into our office and we're talking to our head programmer who's a genius, and we're telling him about the idea and he says, you know, this sounds a lot like software to me. I said, what do you mean? Oh, well, what if all this were automated for people? That would be really cool. And he said, you could do that? And we said, he said, yeah, I think so. And that was the genesis of what has now been a two and a half year journey that I'm very much looking forward to sharing with all of you amazing people. Why don't we do this? I'll turn it over to you. And you have like a little screen presentation of how this is all done, right? Yes, sir, I can do that. All right, turn that screen share on. Yeah, do that and I'll make sure everybody can see it. Hold on, there we go. Boink, let's make sure it. How about that? Is that working? I think, yeah, I can see the screen there. If you guys can see the screen, just put something in the comments section and make sure you guys can see it, but it looks like you can. I can see it. Tammy, put something in there or Mita, if you can see that screen, if you don't mind doing that for me, please. And there's a little bit of a lag ridgely. So when we talk, just so you know, there is a little bit of a lag before they're gonna be able to hear you. Mita says he can see it. So that's cool, all right. And I'm gonna put more people tripling in right now. Tammy says, yes, she can see it too. So that's very cool. Eric's in there. He says he can see it. Tom says he can see it. Okay, so yes, it can be seen. So what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna turn this over. Guys, you're gonna love this. You're gonna love me for this. Not that you don't already, I'm sure you do.  So I'm gonna turn it over to Ridgely. And Ridgely, one thing I do want you to cover though, I mean, what is the hardest thing about doing these JVs and JV launches? What do you think is the hardest thing? And that's a joint thing for guys. Yeah, the hardest thing to me is being willing to do the work. In other words, if you do the right things and you do it the right amount of times, there is no question that you can make an absolute fortune without spending a dime of your own money. The hardest thing is to understand that this is not magic. And it's like anything else, the only place that success comes before work is in the dictionary. And unless you plan on living off the dictionary, I would suggest that we're gonna talk about how to do the right things to really make a fortune online. All right, it's all yours, Ridgely. So you can go right ahead, buddy. All right, so let's talk about JV hacking, insider secrets to making a fortune online through joint venture relationships. That's my partner Glen and myself and the book that we wrote on this topic. This is perhaps the most important book I've written so far of the 17 that JR mentioned. Certainly when it comes to this, and we're gonna jump right into the content. And JR, please feel free to add anything you want, interrupt me anytime. If something's not clear, you can just stop me and say, hey, I'm not sure we understood that. Hit us up again. I do wanna lay some foundation though for you. I wanna make sure that everybody understands exactly where we're coming from. So first of all, what is a joint venture? A joint venture is simply when two or more business entities come together to achieve a common goal or purpose. In our industry, that generally means to grow your currency or your list or to make more sales of your product or service. And your currency is how many eyeballs can you put on a product? How many people can you send to an offer? That is your currency. And it can be in the form of Instagram followers, Facebook followers, a big, huge podcast audience, and of course emails, perhaps the most successful of all. Any, but every, all of us have currency and we're gonna talk more about that as we go along. So just again, to lay the foundation, what is a joint venture or affiliate partner? You know, this photo with the eyeballs, man. I don't know. I think I gotta replace this photo. It looks just a little strange, but anyway, I hope everybody's okay with that. A JV or affiliate partner is a person or entity who is willing to promote your product in exchange for currency in the form of money, traffic exchange, social capital, or a favor. A JV partner brings more eyeballs and potential customers to your products so that they can be sold and make both parties a good amount of money. That's the idea. So when you think of a JV, you can think of it as doing a grand opening to your business where you offer your product or service to a bigger group of people at the same time. You're the manufacturer. You're the creator of the product.  Hope that's really foundational and cool for everybody. Now there's a theory out there that says the following. The money is in your list. And of course, that's true. If you take care of people, if you communicate with people like JR does, for instance, and then you bring them something of value, many of the people on your list are gonna say, wow, I want that, that sounds great. I definitely feel that that could be something good for my life and for my business, I'm gonna buy it. But here's what Glenn, my partner says. The real money is in other people's lists and we love lists. Let's just do the math on this to bring this home a little bit. If you have a list of 10,000 emails and it converts it 2% into sales of $100 each, then 10,000 times 2% times 100 bucks is $20,000. And obviously $20,000 is not anything to sneeze at. That's important. But let's just imagine you have a bunch of partners and now you have 50 lists of 10,000 emails converting at exactly the same rate, 100,000 emails and now you're making a million dollars off of the exact same product. Now, let's just say 50 lists is too many. What if you had 10? What if you had 10 so that instead of making $20,000, you made $200,000? I think we can all agree that the math is very compelling and this guy, Jeff Walker, the product launch formula creator, done well over a billion dollars in product launches. But what I love is he said the following. I get most excited about all of the, quote, regular folks, unquote, that I've helped quit their jobs and grow serious businesses. If that's you, then you really want to pay attention to this presentation because I have something very, very compelling to share with you to help you be one of those regular folks that grows a serious business and gives you the freedom to quit your job if you want to. So, given that you can go from the $20,000 to a million dollars or anything in between or maybe even a lot more, ask yourself, would you think it's a good idea to do some JV business? I would say that pretty much, yeah, most everybody does. So then why doesn't everybody do JVs? Well, let me just frame the rest of this presentation for you. I got this thing and I'm gonna show it to you and here's the problem with it. A lot of people won't do what they need to do because it's a little complicated. It's not a lot complicated, but there is a little bit of effort involved. Everybody wants to make money doing nothing and if you're willing to do just a little bit of effort, you can clean up and get all the money.  Are we okay with that? I really hope the answer is yes. The reason that most people don't do joint ventures is because it's complicated, challenging and most people don't know how. Let me tell you something. If you're the tallest person by an inch over everyone else, you're the tallest person, right? If everybody else is blind and you have one eye, you rule, be amazing.  It means the difference between JV launches and JV promotions that flop and JV launches or promotions that do millions of dollars. How do you do slightly better? Let me tell you. In this day and age where everybody's looking for the easy way, the easy promise, the simple stuff where you don't have to do any work, the real edge is in doing the right kind of work, the right way and dirty. And if you do JVs the right way and there is some work, there is no better way to make money online than joint ventures. But wait a second. I want to take you into the fundamentals and walk through fundamentals of joint ventures that will really give you a humongous edge over everybody in the market. So first off, we have to learn the affiliate alphabet, the joint venture alphabet, your A's, B's, C's and D's. And before I even get started, there is no person, no human being that's better than any others. Whether you're an A, B, C or a D, it simply means how much longer you've been at the game and what you've learned in the process. So we're gonna start with the D's. The D's are people that are just getting going. Maybe they don't even have a product yet and that's totally fine. Even if you don't, you're learning because you do have currency. You have some emails. You have a social media presence in all likelihood. You have some followers in somewhere where that's Instagram or Facebook or Twitter or whatever. So you do have something to offer others but you don't know a lot yet. You're just getting going.  A C is someone who has a little bit more experience. They're beginning to build a list. They're beginning to build their currency. They probably have a product by now. They've made a few creating business for themselves. Then we go to the B's. The B's are people that now know what they're doing. They have a substantial list, a sizable list. They have products that are working. They have funnels that are working. They have offers that are working. But they're not at the absolute highest level which are the A's. The A's are the people who know everything I'm about to share with you. By the way, I hope you get that. That means that you can also be an A when you learn all of this stuff. They have big lists. They have offers that convert.  So here's how the alphabet works. If you're a D, obviously you can communicate with other D's. You can communicate with a few C's. But in reality, you don't know enough nor have a lot of currency that gives you a great way to communicate with the B's or the A's. In fact, you might feel weird. You might come across looking badly. You might feel funny about it yourself. Which is why it's just not that great of an idea.  You can communicate with other C's and you can communicate with B's. You probably don't have enough muscle and currency to communicate with the A's yet. And again, I really want to stress. This is not about being a good person. It's just about how much experience in the JV game. And the whole point is, this is all about relationships. I have JV partners that we've been sending each other money decade. So when you take the long-term approach and you pay attention, you want to know, I love the expression, stay in your lane. That applies here. If you're a D, you want to get to C as quickly as possible. When you're a C, you want to become a B as quickly as possible and so on. But the way to do that is to move yourself up the chain properly and correctly, learning more as you go along, respecting the process, respecting others and understanding that the joint venture game is a long-term game. You can be in this for decades to come, making money with great partners, having fun with your partners, enjoying them if you understand the alphabet. All right, moving on. Here's a kind of a weird saying, and I know it may hit you kind of funny. Nobody cares about your product. So what do we mean by that? Do we mean that nobody really cares about your product? Well, from a consumer perspective, absolutely not. Of course, everybody cares about your product. They care that your product is going to do what it says. They assume that it will deliver on the promise that you make about that product. When we're talking about nobody cares about your product, we're talking about in a joint venture relationship. The joint venture partners assume that the product is great, that it does what it's supposed to do, that they don't have to care about the product. What they care about is your ability to market the product. They care about your marketing chops. They care about how well do you present the product to their audience so that their audience can make the decision to purchase that product and benefit from that product. That's what we mean by nobody cares about your product. So when you're talking to a JV partner, you're not gonna be touting how great your product is, how it's revolutionary. Nobody's ever seen this before because every JV partner has tons and tons of products that they can promote.  That's what we mean by nobody cares about your product. And here's my favorite. Pick up the phone. Pick up the phone. The phone is the most powerful tool that you have as a joint venture marketer or as an affiliate marketer. So here's something hilarious. So how many of us have had this experience? Somebody calls you and they haven't texted first and you look at the number coming through and you see who it is and you say, oh my gosh, that's so rude. This person is just calling me on my phone. Really? Isn't that what the phone was designed for? Wasn't the phone made to call people? Why do we hide behind our text messages, hide behind our emails and not call people? If you absolutely are terrified of the phone, being a joint venture marketer is probably not your best game. You might wanna look somewhere else. But if you wanna make a fortune, you gotta pick up the phone. So let me ask you a question, serious about this. If you have to call someone three, four, or even five times as opposed to only one, but that means an extra $10,000 in your pocket, would that be okay with you? The reason why most people don't do it is because they don't realize that each phone call is worth $2,000. They just think about how hard it is. If you had to coordinate with your JVs here and there and deal with this or that to make 10 or $20,000 more, would you do it? Most people don't and that's why they stay broke. You on the other hand, if you do this can be super successful and that's what I want for you and that's why I wanna share with you a technique to triple the amount of return phone calls you will get if you do this one thing. Here's how it works. Here's how you increase your callbacks by up to 300%.  Here's how you do this.  So what you're gonna say is something along the lines of hey John, in between meetings, just had a minute, wanted to reach out to you cause I've got something really great to talk to you about. We might be able to do some big things together. Tell you what, I'll follow up with the text. Look forward to talking to you in the next couple of days. And then you follow that message up by leaving somebody a text. Everybody looks at their texts and everybody listens to their voicemail messages. This technique will triple. It will increase your callbacks by 300%. That's three times as much as you're getting them right now. And if you think of the value of a phone call, this is gold everybody. It is worth a fortune to follow this, hold your posture, leave a message first, follow it up by a text, incredibly effective to be a great joint venture marketer. All right, now let's talk about something to me is really, really crucial in terms of being abundant and understanding relationships. When you go to an event and you show up, you make the effort to show up to an event, you spend the money, take the time away from your family, away from whatever else you do, please don't be cheap. At dinners, at the bar, buy drinks, be abundant. Be that person that people go, wow, I love that guy. He's just so generous. He's always thinking of others. Don't do this. How many of us have seen this before? Somebody walks up to the bar, they don't look at anybody from side to side, even though they're trying to do business and create joint venture relationships with those people and they just order a drink straight from the bartender and then after that, they start looking around, hey, who can I connect with? Or even worse, this is the one that is just, oh my gosh, please don't do this. Somehow at events, people go to dinners together and they turn into fairly large dinners, 10, 15 people. And somebody organizes the dinner, somehow you get yourself invited or somebody gets invited and they go to that dinner and the organizer says, okay, everybody, we're just gonna split the bill at the end. Is that cool? Now, if you had a real financial issue, this would be the only time to bring that up beforehand. Say, hey, sorry, I got an issue here. Just getting going. Would you mind if I just pick up my own check? Everybody's gonna say, sure, man, no worries. But until the end and then the bill shows up and the waiter starts distributing it and you're the person that's like, wait a second, excuse me, excuse me, I only had a salad. Or excuse me, excuse me, I didn't drink any alcohol. Please don't do that. Oh my gosh, what message are you sending? By the way, there's nothing ethically wrong with what you're doing. That financially, I get it. But the message that you're sending, that I am not an abundant person. I am not one of those people who wants to be abundant in my thinking, abundant in my sharing.  And you don't wanna be that person. It could cost you so much. Think about a relationship that could generate you per year, what's that worth in a decade? Please don't be that person. Don't be cheap. Build it into your budget. Do what you have to do to show up and be abundant. And here's my favorite online saying, in God we trust, all others bring data. What do we mean by this? Test your offer. Test your product sale. Make sure that your offer converts so that when your partners send their traffic to you, it does well by them, which means it does well by you and everyone benefits. I don't know how many, if this has happened, you guys are not, have you ever had anybody not be honest about the test results? Oh my gosh, it's just such a bad idea. Don't ruin a relationship before it's been started. If you haven't tested your offer, be honest. Be upfront. Make a different kind of agreement with somebody. Propose a different deal. Do a swap of clicks or whatever so that you are the good guy that takes care of your partners. So super critical. There are 60 tasks when planning a launch, which we call the master calendar, that involve what you do, how you do it, and why you do it. And by the way, we're talking about a launch here, but this applies to any promotion, whether it's a summit, an ongoing evergreen offer that you have, a big promotion that you're doing on a regular basis or once in a while, it doesn't matter. We're gonna talk about doing a big launch so that we cover the whole thing. If it's smaller, imagine that there might be 30 critical tasks or 40 critical tasks. And think about seriously for a second. If it took you two hours to take care of your JVs and you knew you were gonna make an extra 10 grand by doing that, would you do that? I sure would. What if it took you three or four hours to handle a bunch of the details in a launch, but that was the difference between making $100 or $100,000, would you do that? Basically what I'm saying is that if by working hard for a limited time, you could crush everyone else in the business and make a ton of money, would you do it? And that's what we're talking about here, planning the critical tasks in a launch. Now I'm not gonna go through all of them. That would take a little bit too long. I'm just gonna go through a few by way of example so you can get a solid sense of what a launch looks like. So your JV sign up page, you've got to set up a JV sign up page. And by the way, I put 12 months out here and that's just an ideal situation. It could be 12 weeks out. It could be 10 weeks out. If you've got something coming up, you have to have a place where your affiliates can sign up in order to become your joint venture partner. Now, what's gonna be on that page? Are you gonna talk about your product? No, you're gonna talk a tiny bit about your product. You're gonna talk about your ability to market your product to your affiliates tribes, to the people that are going to come to the product through your affiliates. That's what you're gonna talk about. You're gonna talk about your marketing chops, what you're doing, how well your offer's converting, how much money others are making with it. That's what you're gonna talk about because that's what your affiliates care about. As you get a little bit closer, now you're maybe six or 12 months or six or 12 weeks out, you're gonna send out personal save the date emails. Now, what does that mean? That means you're gonna send out an email that says, hey, Tony, are you available for a launch at the first part of April of next year? If Tony responds and says, yeah, I'm free then, what did you just get? What you just got was a micro commitment, a tiny commitment from Tony. Does that mean that Tony's automatically gonna mail for you? No, it's the beginning of a commitment that you got from Tony that you're gonna continue to follow up with. So a few months later or a few weeks later, you're gonna reconfirm that commitment. You're gonna do it in the same email thread whether or not Tony even got back to you on the first one. And in this case, you're gonna ask them, you're gonna ask your affiliate partners for full support. So what's that mean? Full support means that they're going to mail the content that you send them to mail in the sequence that you send them that content to mail in. So if there's two pieces of mail, first this one than that one, you're gonna ask them to mail those two pieces. If there's three pieces of content, you're gonna ask them to send out the three pieces in the sequence that you have tested. Remember, they have not tested your offer. Only you have tested the offer. So only you know what converts the best. You're the only person qualified to tell them what sequence to use to get the best possible results. That's what full support is and you're gonna ask them for full support. 12 weeks out, you're gonna begin working on your sales copy, your swipe files, your emails, social media posts, PS messages, SMS messages, text messages, and so on. So you're gonna check the deliverability on your email copy. You can use Send Forensics as a great product and they actually have a free version. I think it gives you like five different times a month. You can use it for free or you can get the pro version. It's not very expensive and it'll help you with deliverability. Imagine that you get a 10% better deliverability. That's 10% more emails that reach customers, potential customers to help promote your product. That's huge. So before we go on, I know this may sound like a lot of work but I just want to make a comment here. I mean, don't you find it kind of ironic that people who do JV launches promise you this no work needed money, right? But when you look at what they're doing, it's they're not even doing that at all. They're teaching something different than they're doing. They're teaching some push button riches with no effort. I'm going right in the face of all of those people and I'm going to ask you to do the same, some real work to make real money. How's that sound to you? Are we good with that? Hey, Reginald. I hope so. Yeah, sir. That's how you can tell when somebody's telling you the truth is when they tell you that you gotta work hard because I don't know and you just met a bunch of people in Florida. I don't know anybody there that was like super successful that said, you know, I only work four hours a week. I just hung out at Starbucks. Right? Exactly. It's crazy. And people think that that's the reality. So, JR, I mean, think, if you could just work hard for a little bit to make a whole big bunch of money, wouldn't most people do that? Yeah, and that's exactly how this is. Yeah, it's just, it's set up right because you're putting all the effort in upfront and then later on you get the rewards. Now that makes sense. Then you can take some time off, right? That's right.  But please, there's a bit of a gap between, A, I need to work hard and B, I get to be on the beach drinking my ties. So let's just make the commitment that if we were willing to work hard for a little bit to eventually make a lot and then be able to enjoy that lifestyle that we would all do that. And let me share a little bit more about what that looks like. So you're getting a little closer. 10 weeks out, you're gonna check your server capacity. You're gonna start out your merchant processing. I just wanna share two stories on this because it is so critical. I was doing a launch for a big, big marketer, written a lot of books, famous best-selling author. And I told his team that we're using Drupal which is an antiquated software. It really is not very good. We could melt down the server. Do you have the capacity? Over and over I asked them, yes, yes, yes. Young guy, don't, ah, don't, I got this. Don't worry about it. You're worried, way too worried. We started sending traffic. We had a hundred partners mailing and within 45 minutes we melted the server capacity. None of the traffic could get through. Everybody was upset, huge buildup to the day. And even though it wasn't necessarily my fault, certainly my client wasn't happy at all, it was horrible. I remember back in the day, people thought it was like a badge of courage to be able to send so much traffic to you melted a server. No, it's not. It's just bad. It's just flat out horrible to not be able to get people to see a great product that could help them with their life or their business. Merchant processing, just as bad. I remember I was dealing with a very big marketer out of Dallas, Texas who had an economic newsletter and had a huge list of accredited investors. Went to his bank, talked to the vice president, explained the power of a launch, did all of these things. But the one thing I didn't do is get a backup merchant processor. Entirely my fault, we should have had a backup, started sending traffic. The automatic fraud controls kicked in. We were sending tens of thousands of dollars per hour and shut in three hours. I have no idea how much money we lost. We did just under a million dollars on that launch but it was horrible when we could have done so much more if we just paid attention and sorted out the merchant processing. And eight weeks out, we're gonna start our internal testing. We're gonna make sure our offers are converted on an internal test. Maybe we're gonna ask a partner to send us some traffic that we'll then swap back with them later to test it a little bit more to make sure that we do right by people. At the four week mark, we're gonna start moving to twice a week communications, emails, video blasts. I like to do one of each. One email a week, one video a week, continuing to gather micro commitments, calling people, Skyping, IM and texting, emailing, building the buzz toward your launch. Certainly at the two week mark, we're gonna reach out to every one of our top partners and we're gonna send out the first piece of swipe copy only to make sure they mail that on the first official day of the launch. They don't send the second piece first. They don't send the third piece first. They do things in the right sequence. At the one week mark, we're gonna start communicating on a daily basis, organizing the countdown, revving our people up. The first day is everything, building to that first day of your launch or your promotion, whatever that is, 12.01 a.m. and you are going best, send out the traffic and then immediately what happens? People start receiving multiple versions of your offer and they go, wow, this must be an amazing product.  Other affiliates say, oh my gosh, look at this. This must be incredible, I better not miss out and you'll have your biggest affiliate signup day be the first day of your launch. Super awesome. During the launch week, you're communicating on a daily basis. You're motivating people to send all of your content pieces. You're talking about the sales page going live. You're posting your leaderboard of who's making the most sales and you're playing on prizes and egos and here's a super cool tip. When you're leaderboard, if you say, all right, JR Fisher at the absolute top of the leaderboard, really crushing it out there, but you know JR, guess what? Tony is right behind you and I heard they're gonna do a monster promotion and oh by the way, Greg is in the number three spot and he's getting ready to do a big push as well. You guys better rev it up. Say people's names. People love to hear their name on the leaderboard. Of course, it rewards them and acknowledges them for their efforts, but it also is a good ego boost for everybody. So say their names, really cool tip for you. And of course, right after the launch is done, you're gonna declare the winners, send out the prizes right away and set up your reciprocals that you agreed to. When somebody mailed for you, you agreed that you were after that going to mail for them. At the end of the day, it's all about doing what you say you're going to do, delivering on your promises, paying the commissions and the prizes on time, organizing the reciprocal mailings, et cetera. You ever worked with somebody who didn't follow up on your promises? How'd that make you feel? Yucky, right? For sure, it's happened to all of us and it feels terrible and when you're in the relationship's business, it is absolutely not what you say. Now, I know there may be a lot of people thinking, oh my gosh, this is like kind of overwhelming to get everything done like that, but what if there was a totally automated system that did all of this for you? And that's what I wanna show you right now. The JV hacking blueprint and in fact, the JV hacking software. I'm gonna play a little video. JR, please let me know that this is actually playing and you can hear it. I see it playing, but I don't hear anything. Yeah, is it playing? We're good? Yeah, no, I see it, but it's not. There's no sound. Oh, really? Oh, that's kind of weird. That's a webinar jam thing. Okay, then I'm going to talk you through it if there's no sound. Here we go. So it's called JV hacking and here's what we wanna talk about. How does the software work? What can the software do for you? First, you select the date of your launch. You add the description. You select all the team members you wanna man that you wanna notify for each task. That's all. Then you press go and the software does the rest. Your calendar will automatically populate with all the 60 critical tasks. The software is gonna tell you like, save the dates, work on your copy, source second tier JV referrals, do some testing, check your immersion capabilities, send your swipe files and so much more that's what the software does. If it's time to send the email, look at some resources. We'll give you some examples. All you have to do is copy, paste, tweak and send you get the emails. It's all done for you. Let's see a video example. Got those too. You wanna see text messages? We got it. Copy, paste and send. You wanna know why we do stuff? Click to the timestamp and we'll explain exactly why we're doing it and the psychology behind it. Every task is customizable. You can change it. You can make the launch shorter. You can take some tasks out. You can add some tasks. You can customize the launch to your liking and then save it. And you literally institutionalize all of your knowledge. You can move the launch to chats around. You can leave it as is. You can have the launch run automatically. There you go. So there are four different modules here. Give you all the dos and don'ts. What to do, why to do it and the psychology behind why you do what you do. They complement the software perfectly and at any point you can click on the tutorial for a step-by-step guide. It's amazing. The software tells you exactly what to do, when to do it, what to do it with and examples of all of the things that you need to make this successful. It's like Glenn and I looking over your shoulder and code through an entire launch. I know by the way, the software doesn't forget anything. Best of all, the software holds everybody accountable. Amazing. So if you need a refresher, you can just click on the welcome and overview button and find out how to do a super successful launch. So happy launching. That is the software. And it works 24 hours a day. It works seven days a week. It never calls in sick. It doesn't make mistakes. Ask yourself the question, how many people can you replace or not even need if you had that software? And earlier we agreed that if you had to work a little harder but could make way more money, that you would do it. You would take care of your joint venture partners so that they made you those buckets of money. With this software, you take care of all of your joint venture partners without all of the hard work. Is that awesome or what? So let me tell you about the whole package. First of all, you have the course. That's the multi-module video-based course with over 10 years of launch strategy. How Glenn and I made over 25 million in joint venture launches. We've done over 50 million in online marketing but 25 million in joint venture launches alone. That's an info product that tells you exactly what we did, how the strategy works, the whole thing, it's a value of 1997. Then you add in the software itself that integrates into your calendar, whether that's Google, whether that's Outlook, whether that's iCloud, it tells everybody what to do, how to do it and when to do it and it holds everyone accountable. Now this is critical. You look at your calendar and if tasks are not accomplished, they have red lines through them. You can see who was supposed to do that particular task even if it was you. You can then click on that task and get a tutorial about exactly what had to happen in that moment, see from the video course exactly why to do things and how to do those things. Total accountability.  What happened? How much did that cost you? What if that never ever happened again? Total accountability is amazing. Value of that is 97 bucks a month or 997 a year. Total value so far, but 2,994. Add in the resources, that's 10 years of content, built into templates so that all you have to do is fill in the blanks and send. $500 value, bringing our total value up to $34.94. As JR mentioned earlier, I was Jeff Walker's number one product launch manager and people would hire me to do launches for them. Here's me working on a launch with Jeff on Nick Halick's launch, the Thrillioner's. Nick's a great guy, I was an amazing launch. Really, really enjoyed that. And when people hired me, that cost $25,000 non-refundable plus 15% of sales. And I would say to my clients, look, if you don't think that we're gonna make so much more than that by understanding launch techniques, don't hire me and yet they did all the time. So here's something amazing. We decided to create the JV Hacking Mastermind, Glenn and I, launching in 2020. The JV Hacking Mastermind is where you can get on the phone with me and Glenn on a monthly basis and ask anything you want about any aspect of launches, whether that's joint venture management, affiliate management, how to connect with your JV partners or the launch itself, the launch plans, the launch stories, anything. In 2020, we're going to charge $1,000 a month, which is a steal for what we know and what we can do for you. So six months of those calls would be a $6,000 value, bringing our total up to $94.94. By the way, only 50 people are going to participate in the JV Hacking Mastermind pilot program. Why is that? Because as we taught earlier, test, test, test is critical for everything. So we are testing out the JV Hacking Mastermind through a pilot program. And if you decide to participate in the pilot program, it will be absolutely free for you. I've done a few webinars already and I want to share with you in complete transparency, there are seven spots left at last check. Seven spots left. So if you want to be one of the 50 people that participate in the JV Hacking Mastermind program, be sure to register right away and total, including the mastermind, 94.94. But on this presentation, as JR asked me to do, we have something very special for you guys. It's $4.97 for the year, including the $6,000 launch mastermind. That, by the way, is a 94.8% discount. Okay, let me ask you a question though. If you get the powers of joint ventures, the power of affiliate marketing, would you want to do this only for a year? Or would you, like me and Glenn, want to be doing this year after year after year? Therefore, we're going to make it just a little bit crazier. For $7.97, you get the entire JV Hacking Blueprint, the course, the resources, the software, and the $6,000 mastermind for 11 years. That's right, 11 years. Why do we pick 11? Because that's how long we've been doing joint ventures. So Glenn and I put this out there. We said, you know what? We're just going to give it away for 11 years so that you pay $7.97 one time, a 94.5% discount. You never pay another cent, and you'll have access to the program for 11 years. Sure, you can even make some money with us. You can get the product and become our affiliate. So how do you go about doing that? Go to jvhacking.com forward slash jr. Again, seven spots are left. Please, please, please take action right away if this makes sense to you. Go to jvhacking.com forward slash jr and decide to make the choice to join the JV Hacking Mastermind. To that end, our next call, the first official call of the pilot program is this coming Monday, November 18th at 3 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. We will be talking about how to kick off the JV process, how to set up your JV signup page, et cetera. This mastermind is worth a fortune. I doubt we will ever, ever do a pilot program again. So if you want to be a part of the joint venture, mastermind pilot program, register at jvhacking.com forward slash jr right away so that you can grab one of those last seven remaining spots. It's going to be incredible. And I just want to point something out. Many of you probably have drawn the connection already, but if you haven't, do you get that one single relationship from the JV Hacking Mastermind pays for the 797 of 11 years of access to everything I just talked about 100 times over? No kidding. One single relationship. And you'll be hanging out with 50 super cool people, super committed people and maybe some more that will begin paying for their access in 2020. One single relationship can make you an absolute fortune. One of the questions I want to answer before we end up here because I want to make sure that we end on time and honor that everybody's time is valuable is the question that I get a lot, which is if I don't have a product yet, is this for me? Is the JV Hacking Blueprint for me, even if I don't have a product? Are you kidding me? If I had known everything that is in the JV Hacking Blueprint, what JVs are all about? How to make it work? How to run launches, et cetera? When I started out, how much further along would I be today? Of course it's for you.  To learn this information is going to make you a fortune when you do. So it doesn't matter if you're a brand new person, if you're an intermediate person, if you're an advanced person who just wants to make sure that the accountability is in place for your JV partners, go to jvhacking.com forward slash jr, register right away so you can also be a part of the pilot program. I've also gotten the question from advanced marketers, can I send someone to the mastermind? Of course, send your marketing people, send your team members, it doesn't matter, get yourself registered at jvhacking.com forward slash jr as soon as you can, grab one of the last spots and you will be a part of the pilot program. JR, any questions from you, anything you wanna review before we wrap this up and invite your fabulous people to join the mastermind? Yeah, I mean, I didn't realize you had so few spots left guys. So if this is, I know it's amused to you, but if this is something you wanna do, you probably should go ahead and do it because what I had initially planned is to just kind of interview Ridgely about this and then post this later on, but it looks like all those spots could be gone, so you're gonna wanna jump on this. Now, let me ask you something Ridgely, because I know a lot of people are thinking probably the same thing, but if I don't have a product, could I promote somebody else's product by using the software, like something from Clickbank or something? All day long. Of course, even if you don't have a product, you still want to know how to communicate with other JV partners, how to get the most out of that relationship, how to properly use your currency and use the software to manage that process. So the answer is 100% yes, you absolutely can take tremendous advantage of it, even if you don't have a product and eventually you'll probably, through going through the process, figure out what product you do wanna make so that you can have a product to offer your other JV partners that you're already making money with. So the answer is 100% for sure. You guys, let me tell you how easy this is, seriously. You can go to Clickbank and you can search the offers on Clickbank and I've got some videos on my YouTube channel, you can look at on that. And once you've done that, you can find the offers that are already converting and they already have the emails for you, they already have the sales page, they have all that and you could use this software to promote one, five, 10, 100 different products, even if you didn't have one yourself. Now if you got one yourself, sure, that works, but don't let that stop you. And somebody else asked, they live in Australia, Western Australia that's on this call, that Singtan, could they do that there?  Sorry, you cut out first thing. In Western Australia, could they use the software there? That's what they were asking. Oh man, I'm sorry, you just keep cutting out on me. So do they live in another country? Yeah, they're in Western Australia and they wanted to know if the software would work there. For sure, of course. Remember, online, the internet is a global marketplace, right? So whether you're working with the JB Hack and Blueprint and the software on a local basis, on a global basis, it's gonna work either way. The important thing is to learn all the strategies that working with JB partnership means and how to do that and how to maximize it and how to optimize your time with people, how to get the most out of your partner so that they mail more for you. All of those things apply on a local basis, on a global basis, it doesn't matter. Definitely would love to invite you into the mastermind so you can learn all of that during the pilot program when it costs you nothing instead of the thousand bucks a month that people are gonna pay in 2020. That is just so cool.  When I first got involved in selling online about 10 years ago, I didn't know anything about this stuff. And when I did do joint ventures, I really didn't know what I need to do. It's like, do I need a landing page? Do I need an affiliate page? Do I have to write emails? What do I need to do? But with the software, all you do is go through the checkpoints. Is that right, Ridgely? And you just, it tells you what to do next. Is that correct? That is exactly correct. And it tells you the right sequence to do things in. It's just easy to get overloaded and overwhelmed and that's why it's hard for people. And that's why in the past, it has been hard to make money in the JV game because there's so much that has to be done. There's so much that has to be handled. But when you have the software doing it for you, it's like this ninja secret weapon that others don't know about. And I want you to be successful because I wanna do joint ventures with you. I want other JV partners to play with, to make money with to help each other succeed. So if you're ready, do yourself a favor, go to jvhacking.com forward slash JR and grab one of those last spots as quickly as you can. Yeah, you know, I just, I think it's an amazing software. I think the thing that amazes me most is that nobody has thought of this.  Why is it and how is it? You guys did this and nobody else has because I don't know of another software program out there like this. No, there isn't one. You know, some people say to us, well, this is a little bit like a project management software. And I say, sure, you're right, but it's a project management software for joint venture marketers, for affiliate marketers. It is 100% customized for exactly what you need to be successful doing joint ventures, doing affiliate marketing. That's what makes this so different. It's a project management software for affiliate marketers, JV marketers, made by JV marketers, by affiliate marketers so that you can become one of us, so that you can join the A-listers and be super successful. And then we'll be doing business together for years. It's awesome. Yeah, you know, and it's funny because I have people hire me for coaching and they buy my courses and all this, but they do it for one reason. They wanna learn e-commerce. They wanna learn how to sell stuff online and they can actually search my name and find out that I sell stuff online. So that's who you wanna learn from. So if you take a different piece of software, some other project management thing, it's not gonna really fit.  So you've got a software that's designed for JV stuff, then you've got people who did that who designed the software and then you've got access to those people. If you've got a question, it's crazy. You get all that value.  And this whole program is, I think it's like 797 and you get the mastermind, you get the coaching, you get the software, you get all of that. Is that correct? Bridgely, you blanked out there. Are you there? Yeah, yeah, you cut out for me too. Yeah, that's exactly right. And we drink our Kool-Aid, man. We wanna test this mastermind and therefore the people who participate in the pilot program get to have the benefit of not spending a thousand dollars a month, which is what it's going to cost. When we launch it officially in 2020, you get to be a part of that for free. So I can tell you, man, one, like you said, a single call on a mastermind like that is worth the cost of the software that you're getting for 11 years. I know that was a goofy time. I kinda crack up about that 11 years thing all the time, but we just thought it'd be kind of fun to make it 11 years, because that's how long we've been doing launches. And now you get all of that for $7.97. So please do grab one of those last spots, if this makes sense to you. Oh, by the way, I just wanna share something. If you do decide to do that, let me just remove all of the risk right now. If you grab the software right now, jvhacking.com, forward slash jr, and you at any point in the next 60 days can come back to us and say, well, you know what? It's just not working for me.  You just say, hey, didn't work for me, whatever, we are that confident that you are going to really make a tremendous difference in all of your marketing efforts by using our software that we're gonna take the risk away from you 100%. So they're getting access to the software and you're gonna guarantee their money back. They can go in there and look through everything and make sure it has that value, which I know it does, I know you and I've looked at the software, but after they've looked at the software and used it, they can actually get their money back. So that would be like no risk, right? That's correct. I wanna take the risk away from you. So you have absolutely no risk and no reason. You have everything to gain by learning the jvgame and zero risk. You know what really gets me is a lot of times people will say, well, gee, I don't know if I wanna do this. Maybe I can just figure it out on my own. And the thing is maybe you can, maybe you can, maybe you'll figure it all out on your own, maybe you're super organized, I'm not. But the thing is how much time will that take you and does your time have any value whatsoever? And the thing that they don't look at is the opportunity of their time. In other words, if they get a piece of software and it makes them money that they wouldn't have made for three months, six months or a year, what are they missing out on? So the other thing is, when I first started out in e-commerce, I didn't know anything. I spent a lot of time spinning my wheels and losing money, trying different things. Man, if I had a software that did the covers for me, that would be awesome. I mean, that's just really cool. But when somebody went on their own and they decided they were gonna try to figure out all this on their own, how long does it take to become a really good jv marketer and figure all this stuff out all by themselves? Oh my gosh, bro.  It's gonna take you years to figure out, just like you said, a single psychological trigger that you learn from the jv hacking program is worth a fortune. And the faster you learn it, the faster you get to implement it. So the more time you wait to do this, it's costing you money.  A mistake that you make that you would not have made had you have the software is gonna cost you a fortune and be incredibly aggravating. So that's kind of a funny question, but for sure it's years and then you've got to put in the systems or you can just get the software and have the software manage it for you. A lot easier, in my mind. Yeah, I often have people ask me about e-commerce and they'll say, well, what are just the three things I need to know? What are the four things I need to know? And I just want to laugh and I'm like, oh my God, there's like thousands of things you need to know. I can tell you're a newbie you only think there's a few things. And it's kind of like JV marketing. And the thing I love about JV marketing is that you can put your efforts and you can sell your product and that's great. But what if you had a hundred people doing that or a thousand people doing it? If you go to something like ClickBank, you can literally find thousands and thousands and thousands of affiliates. And I know you didn't take the math that far, but I know a lot of these big launches, they'll have hundreds of people marketing that particular product. And guys, I mean, you could just crush it with something like this. If you had this kind of software and you had access to something like this. Let me ask you another thing. If you could share one thing with our listeners, one nugget, one thing that you thought had super value. And I think everything you share has super value. I really appreciate you giving them this information. But what would that one thing be? I'm doing exactly what I told you. I don't like what people do, but I'm going to do it. What would that one thing be? So to me, one thing is to really understand that a single JV relationship could change your entire business. You find that one partner that has a list that is a perfect fit for what you are doing, or you find the one partner who has a product that is the perfect fit for your list and your business just changed completely based on one single relationship. So how valuable is it to understand how to find those people, how to motivate those people, how to touch those people, and how to communicate those people if you knew with certainty as I do that one single relationship changes your entire business. Would it be worth learning all of that to make sure that you had a different business moving forward forever, that the business changed through just one single person? And if you get that, then multiply that times 10, multiply that times 20, or even times 100, and now put yourself into the future. Where are you? You're in a very, very different place.  That's awesome. The only thing I will remind you guys is he only has a few spots left. He's doing this special little talk with me, so he did have a few spots left, and once those are gone, I'm sure the pricing is going to go up. So if you wanna really move your business ahead, if you wanna get into JV marketing, and I'm telling you, it's so funny, you don't know you wanna get into JV marketing until you get into JV marketing. I know one of my first webinars I did with Justin Atlin from ClickBank University, and he became one of my first JVs, and we did hundreds of thousands of dollars in a matter of hours. So guys, it can really turn things around if you think, oh, it's complicated, something I don't wanna get into yet, I'm not at that stage yet. Why not start at the top stage? If you don't have to start at the bottom stage, I see a lot of people doing that. They go, well, I'll just start at the bottom and work my way up. What this does is it allows you to start at the top and start making money right away, because we're all limited on time, and I'm gonna end this in just a couple minutes. Matter of fact, I should put up a timer here. Let me put a timer on here, because we don't wanna go over, and I'm gonna put a little timer on, hang on one second, I'm gonna set one, and I'm gonna put it on, I better not put on this, I'm gonna put it on my phone, that's what I'm gonna do. And guys, we're gonna have about five minutes left to do this, and you don't wanna miss out on it. A lot of times you're like, gee, should I do this, should I do that? First off, you have my recommendation, okay? So since you have my recommendation, you know who the guy is. When you go online and you just buy stuff, you don't know what it is, you don't know who it's from, you don't know if it works, and as you know, I don't do these things. I don't do a webinar where somebody offers you a product, it's not something I do. And the reason I don't do it, I guess, because I sell my own products, but I don't do this. This is not one of my products. I would be the last person to come to to help you set up a software on how to organize yourself, because I'm not that organized. I mean, we've sold millions of dollars of products online, but it's not through my great organization, I can tell you that. So we're down to about four and a half minutes now. So if you wanna do this, I would say go ahead and do it. You can't lose, it's a no-lose situation, you know? And a lot of people say, well, I'm gonna wait, and I'm gonna see what I'm gonna do. Nothing's gonna change until you do something.  I'm serious about it. Some people will, you know, I haven't done well the past 20 years. So let me try another 20, see what happens. The odds are 20 ain't gonna be no different. So, you know, I just think that's great. I'm sorry, go ahead. Yeah, no, I was just totally with you on that, man. It is crazy, the absolute definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result when in today's market, we're still a growing market. It is expanding. There are more people in the space every single day and you could be partnering with a whole bunch of them if you just knew how and had a system that helped you to stay organized, knew how to communicate with those people, knew how to motivate those people, how to find those people and all of that, we do it in jbhacking.com. And again, the mastermind, oh my gosh, I was in Jeff Walker's Platinum Mastermind Group for two and a half years, spending $1,000 a month because I did so much business through that. It was so worth it to me. It was the cheapest money ever. And in this case, the mastermind for six months is free because you get to be a part of the pilot. And by the way, I'm gonna ask you, how do we tweak this? How do we make it even better? How do we make it serve your needs? You get to be a part of shaping and crafting something if you grab one of those final spots. So again, I really encourage you, go to jbhacking.com, forward slash jr, register yourself, pick up a copy of jbhacking and it'll be my pleasure to welcome you to our very first pilot call, which is this coming Monday at 3 p.m. Eastern. Guys, we're down about two and a half minutes, but I was on a flight the other day and I was with a lady and she does exercise stuff and she wanted to sell her programs online. And I said, why don't you do it? And she says, because I think it'll get made fun of. And it's not the strangers. I just worry about my family and friends.   If you buy this, they're gonna make fun of you. And you know why? Because they don't know any better. They don't know that this stuff works. They don't get it. So you've gotta quit worrying about what everybody thinks, we're down to two minutes. And when I started my business, listen, I couldn't type. And I've never sold anything online before. And I said, I'm gonna go sell stuff online.   You can't type, you can sell stuff online. Well, that was millions of dollars ago. And I now have a lot of those people sending me messages going, who did you do this? Well, how'd you do this?  So what? You're gonna worry about what everybody thinks. You're down to about a minute and a half now. If you're gonna worry about what everybody thinks, guess what?    If you succeed, and they don't want them, you know? So guys, you're down to wait at a minute right now. So if you wanna do this, you better jump in there right now. Go to jvhacking.com forward slash jr.  Yeah, you know what? I just wanna say one thing. I love that people that go ask their broke uncle about how to make money. Really? Come on, people. And the way you make money, the way you really do well in life is by surrounding yourself with people who are already where you wanna be, who are already doing what you wanna be doing. And the JV Hacking Mastermind is exactly those kind of people.  Take advantage of the pilot program free offer to participate in the JV Hacking Mastermind for the next six months. We're gonna have an absolute blast together and our first call is Monday. This coming Monday, if you register, you'll get the official notices, you'll get the links to join me on that call. It's gonna be super awesome. I hope you have a fantastic weekend, but I wanna see you on Monday. So take that action now, hop on this, grab the offer, and I'll see you in the mastermind. And J.R., thanks so much for letting me share some knowledge with people so we can find some more great partners so that we can all make some more money together. Yeah, the timer just went off ridgely. And I'll make sure the people that are going over there right now can get in. Can you leave that page open for like five minutes so they can get their information in? Cause I know it takes a couple minutes to enter all that stuff in. Yep. We'll leave it open. I will leave it there. And then we will join together on Monday the 18th at 3 p.m. Eastern. All right, man. Thank you so much for your time ridgely. And guys, go jump on it. He's gonna leave it open for a few minutes. And I appreciate you being here every single one of you. Thank you so much. Thank you very much guys. I appreciate you. Bye bye.

Hello friends, I am Sanjay Gupta. In this video, I am going to demonstrate you how you can copy a string into another using pointer. Before starting, you can note my information. You can follow or subscribe my YouTube channel through the URL youtube.com slash sanjaygupta underscore text pool. You can download my programming app tech image, which is available on Google Play. Now I am going to implement solution of this problem. So first of all I am including a header file. Then inside main function, I am declaring two character arrays. First one is S1 and second one is S2. Now two pointers P1 and P2. With the help of printf, I am going to display the message. Enter a string on console. To receive input from user, I am using GATUS, which will receive the entered value inside S1 with the help of GATUS function. Now for copying purpose, I am assigning addresses of these two character arrays into pointers. So here I have written P1 equals to S1 and P2 equals to S2. P1 P2 are pointers and S1 S2 are character arrays. So if I assign name of any array, then its base address will be assigned automatically into a pointer. So name of array provides its base address. So P1 is containing base address of S1 and P2 is containing base address of S2. Now for copying purpose, I am implementing while loop. Here condition is P, asterisk P1 not equals to null. So if this condition is true, then only the further statements will be executed. Otherwise this loop will be terminated. So now for copying operation, I am applying asterisk P2 equals to asterisk P1. So through this statement, elements of S1 array will be copied into S2. Now I am incrementing P1 by 1 and P2 by 1. So this way P1 and P2 will be pointing to the next location which are available in S1 and S2 arrays. So through this while loop, I am copying all the elements of S1 into S2. But here you can see I have used only pointers. So P1 is pointing to S1 array and P2 is pointing to S2 array. After completion of this loop, all the elements will be copied into second string that is S2. But null will not be copied because after checking this condition for null, this loop will be terminated. So null will not be copied. So for that purpose, I can write asterisk P2 equals to null. So I am explicitly assigning null into second string. Now I can print the copied string with the help of printf percent S and S2. So here you can see I am printing the copied string using S2 array. But for copying purpose, I have used only pointers. So whenever we access any array through pointer, pointer can update the elements of that array. Whether it can be integer or it can be character array. So now I am going to execute this code. I am entering my name in S1 string. You can see the output copied string equals to Sanjay. So whatever I have entered is printed back on console. So I entered the values into S1 and I printed the result through S2. So S1 elements are copied into S2. But you can see it is done with the help of P1 and P2 pointers. So this way I have demonstrated you how you can copy contents of a string into another using pointer.

Yo, what's up guys, welcome back to the channel. This is the kind of spontaneous video idea I had. I thought I would shoot it today for you guys, so you guys have a video to watch this week. I didn't get to go skate this week because I've been super busy, plus the weather's been really hot. It's been like 45 degrees. It's either been like stinking hot or it's been raining and windy, so there's no in-between in Australia. There really isn't. I fruit together this video right now for you guys. Just talking about how skateboarding can be made a bit cheaper because I know skateboarding can be very expensive. If you're anything like me, I buy a new deck and a new pair of shoes almost every month. A pro board in Australia will run from between $100 to $140.  It's about $200, $240, $250 a month. Times that by 12, that's like nearly three grand. It's $2,800 a year just to ride a skateboard. But yeah, skateboarding doesn't necessarily have to be that expensive. Like for me, I buy a new board and new shoes every month because I just want everything to feel fresh and make skateboarding easier for me. I know what I like. I've been skating long enough now to kind of figure out what works and what doesn't work for me. This is just a rough guide. Take what you will from it. If you find any tips helpful in this video, make sure you drop a comment below and tell me which ones you thought helped you out the most. But yeah, I'm gonna start off with where to buy cheap decks from. Not everyone has the money every month to buy a brand new board, especially if you're younger, say if you're in your teen years, like 16, 17, 18, 19, and you're not really working that much. You don't have a job or whatever. As I said, spending like $250 a month on skateboarding can get expensive. So I'm gonna start off with where to get cheap decks from. So you don't necessarily have to get a brand new board.  He would have bought that setup like maybe a month, two months ago, wrote it a couple of times, figured skateboarding isn't for him or whatever. Put it up on Facebook Marketplace and usually they're asking for a complete board. They're asking like 150 bucks compared to buying a whole new complete in the store. Buying a complete board like trucks, wheels, bearings, the deck, grip tape, hardware, everything. It's gonna run you like at least $280, $300 in Australia. So if you can manage to find a decent secondhand setup off Facebook Marketplace, you're cheering because nine times out of 10, they're gonna have decent parts on them like independence or thunders. And generally the boards are gonna be pretty brand new because they haven't been skated that much. If you're able to snag one of those deals, I would jump on it. The second place where you're gonna be able to get a cheap deck from is usually skate shops, like independent owned skate shops. They're gonna have all the boards on the wall and then they're usually gonna have like a bin or a basket that has all the sailboards in it, which are the boards that haven't sold. Depending on what size you ride, some sizes are more easier to find in these bargain bins. Like the last deck I bought was a hockey deck and I bought it from Fast Times at Miranda. It was in a sail bin. I got it for, I got it for a hundred bucks, which is pretty decent for a pro board.  There was like passport. I've seen a few passport boards in there, but those boards can go from anywhere from $60 to a hundred. Say if you ride like a 825 or something, that's a pretty common size. You'll have to kind of be quick on those bargains because they go quite fast. If you're at the skate shop and then there is a bargain bin and you can just say to the person working like, yo, how often does the bin get restocked? Or is it kind of every week, every three weeks? They're usually going to be able to tell you how long the turnaround is because they're going to have all the wallboards sell out of them. Which ones don't sell? They're probably going to put in a bargain bin for Cheabite to move a bit quicker so they can buy a new stock. So they're the two places you can get cheap decks from. You can get a deck of a Facebook marketplace and the sail bin at the skate shop. The third way to get a cheap deck, you can still cop a decent deck this way, but eight times out of 10, they're going to be pretty thrashed. Like I know some skate shops, I've seen it more commonly in America. When someone comes in and buys a new deck, they'll leave their old deck at the shop. So sometimes skate shops will have like a stack of old boards that they keep there for people. So you might be able to come up on a board. It could be thrashed, it could not be thrashed. It could be in decent condition. It just depends really.  Like, do you mind if I have it? I've done this multiple times. Kids have asked me like, oh, can I have your old deck when you get a new one? I'm like, yeah, sweet, it's all yours.  So worst I can say is no. All right, so moving on from decks, let's move on to shoes. Shoes, skate shoes are quite expensive too because they're obviously made a bit tougher. Depending on what brand it is, they're gonna have a better insult for skating so you don't bruise your heel as much. What I've found myself is, I'll hit up like Facebook Marketplace again. People are selling shoes that don't fit them. People have bought shoes online, they don't fit and they've thrown their seat out or whatever, so they're trying to sell these shoes and they sell them for quite cheap. I mean, I found a pair of old school vans and old school vans in Australia run for 110. They were like pretty used and they were like 40 bucks, but I mean, you're only gonna skate in them anyway. You can just like buy them, throw them in the washing machine, hang them out to dry, chuck them on and then skate them. Like when you spend $40, you haven't spent $110 on skate shoes. Another way to find cheap shoes is to go to outlets. So we have like a vans outlet here and we have a converse outlet here. Usually vans are put on deals, so to be like, they'll have some pro shoes for like 60 bucks, 70 bucks, or they'll have like a two for one deal. I did notice last time I was at the vans outlet, they had all these boxes of samples and they were all sample shoes. They were 50 bucks a pair. So these sample shoes obviously aren't like the samples. So they vans make these shoes as like a prototype, I guess.  So I don't know. Another way to get cheap shoes, this is more for you Americans watching is hit the thrift store. Like when I was over there, we hit a bunch of thrift stores actually come up on a decent pair of converse. I got these, these were, well they were labeled for like 18 bucks, but I switched the tags, so I got them for seven. But that's a little secret. But they didn't look like this when I bought them. They were covered in like mud and like dirt. They were filthy. Like it took me a few goes to get them looking this clean. These are the ones that the Lunalon sold. So these are before they did converse cons. I'm pretty sure. So it's an auto converse, but like $7. You can't really complain. I know they were filthy when I bought them, but I cleaned them up. I probably won't skate these though, but like I just wanted to show you guys that you can find cheap shoes in the thrift that you can skate. And like I said, you're not spending 80, 100, $120 on pairs of shoes that you're going to thrash. Like I could legit just have bought these for seven bucks, cleaned them up and then thrashed them and that'd be ruined in a month. But I kind of want to hang on to these because kind of needed a set of all white high top chucks in my wardrobe. So yeah, also another one for you Americans. Another way to find cheap shoes is hit Ross.  Last time, the second last time I was in the States, I got a pair of these huffs and they were from memory that were $20. And a huff don't make shoes anymore, so I grabbed them. But yeah, you can hit Ross, have a look. You might be able to find like a pair of Nike SB's. I had to buy these obviously because huffs don't make shoes anymore. I'm not going to skate them either. I'm just going to have them in my wardrobe. These are going to become rarer and rarer as time goes on. Copped a pair of huffs for 20 bucks. These run in Australia for like 120. One more thing guys is your skate shoes don't necessarily have to be skate shoes. I know a lot of brands have the regular version of the shoe and then they have the pro or the skate version of the shoe. Vans do this with the vans and the vans pro. Converse do this with the converse to converse cons. And I think Adidas also do this. They have like the normal range and then they have like the Adidas skate range. Same with Nike, they have the normal nikes and then they have the skate nikes. But yeah, I got these normal chuck tailors. They're just the canvas style. They don't have the lino on sole but the normal sole. As you can see, these shoes have taken quite a beating already. I got another two, three weeks out of these shoes and then they're done. I'm going to throw them in the bin. I'm going to talk to you guys real quickly about how you can make your shoes last longer.  I don't need to be the pros or the cons. These aren't the cons. Shout out to the guy that commented on one of my last videos about this glue. This glue right here is probably the best glue that I've ever used for shoes. I mean, it works so much better than just normal shugu or like super glue. I don't know if you guys can see but it kind of bonds differently. So it bonds a lot smoother and it doesn't really embrace that much. So you can skate and it will still be quite smooth. You can see right here where I've super glued it. It's a bit rough from skating it. You're going to be able to get a decent amount of skates out of this glue. Like I said, guys, these aren't the converse cons. These are just normal Chuck Taylor's.  These are decent and you can find a second hand pair of these on Facebook Marketplace for like 40 bucks sometimes. It just depends on your luck really and what shoe size you are as well. My other camera died. So I'm back on the G7X right now. Yeah, moving on. I've told you guys where to cop cheap boards from sell bins, Facebook Marketplace, hand me downs. Told you guys where to get cheap shoes from. Sells at outlets, sales at skate shops, Facebook Marketplace again. The third thing I'm going to talk about right now is like clothes to wear skating.  Skateboarding is gross. I'm going to talk to you guys about where to get cheap clothes from for skateboarding.  You just have sabers, you just have Goodwill. Most of my clothes, my dickies, I've copped in thrift stores over there at Sabers and they've been like four bucks, five bucks. I bought one pair of dickies in Australia and they cost me $79. Yes, that's correct. They cost me 79 big ones for a pair of dickies.  I found six shirts in the thrift, like $4, $3 sometimes. You can go down to your local thrift with like, I don't know, maybe 15, 20 bucks, cop an outfit to skate in, maybe cop a couple outfits. I did have a video on a $19 skate outfit. I'll leave the link in the description below. You can go and check it out. Just to give you guys an example, like I went and bought a pair of shoes, pair of dickies and a t-shirt, that's a whole outfit and it was like 20 bucks. If you live in Australia, it's gonna be a bit more difficult to find cheaper clothes to skate in. Kmart still exists in Australia and it's pretty good. They have pairs of cargo pants for, I think, $25, just your standard cotton cargo pants with the belt loops and then the pockets on the sides. For dickies, it's gonna be expensive to buy dickies brand new, but you could probably buy a second-hand pair of dickies off of Facebook Marketplace again or Depop. Another spot you can cop kind of cheaper pants for is Rivers, we have this shop called Rivers out here. They're probably comparable to Old Navy in the States, kind of similar, like dads go there and buy clothes. I bought a pair of jeans from their Blue Den of Jeans to skate in. I think that would like 20 bucks, but they have pairs of like straight-leg pants. You can just roll the cuffs up and probably won't last as well as dickies, but this is the aesthetic, I guess. Just trying to get like some cheap clothes to skate in. You can go to Kmart, they have blank shirts for like eight bucks. You can buy a blank black or white t-shirt, skate in it a few times, thrash it. You can wash it and it's still good sweet if you can't just chuck it in the bin. It was eight bucks, you're not really losing there. If you guys found anything in this video helpful at all, drop me a comment in the comment section below.
