The Sky Isn't Our Limit: So, Who's Ready to Break Some Records?
Before I wrap-up my last blog article here (on this site), I wanted to extend a Final Invitation to all of the world’s leading companies that I’ve sent proposals to – regarding my new Coffee beverage idea: Dunkin’, Starbucks, Coca-Cola, Monster Energy and Nestle. After sending out close to $45B+ in gross sales proposals in the last few years, it taught me a lot about how people think – and the limits that most of us, actually have…
For those companies who want to increase their bottom lines, but are also afraid to take a chance on something new (and I understand those concerns), I’m going to go out as far on a limb as I can to show you a few simple things that can be done – if you really want to do something: BIG.
Before I reveal what it is, let me remind you (with full respect) that you can’t say on one hand that you want to grow as big as possible, and at the same time limit yourself – to only what you know or feel perfectly comfortable with – at the present moment.
To grow as big as you possibly can – you need to stretch out into some new areas and take some thoughtful but calculated risks; so that you can actually enlarge the circle you have – to grow some new avenues for prospects, interest, and expansion…
What I’m going to suggest here – is only going to be seen by very few people. Since this website is private, the only ones who have access to it are: My family, a few close friends, and those very special companies that have received a sales / product proposal over the past few years…
Since – the only “real” limits that we have on the ground – are the ones we set for ourselves…I’m about to create something very familiar, but completely brand new at the same time…Not just because I believe whole-heartedly in the product or its underlying positive message, but because I want it to be a reminder to everyone: That big goals can be reached and surpassed, that we can all give ourselves something fantastic to look forward to again – and to give the entire world something to smile about – even for just a little while. Both the extremely wealthy and those who are just getting by – could use a real positive boost for a change. The future for all of us (especially at this time in history) isn’t exactly as clear-cut, smooth or set in stone, as we would like it to be.
So, to all of the companies that I’ve queried recently regarding Coffee…Here is my Big Idea:
I know at least a few of you – probably thought my idea for a new Coffee beverage was interesting, or intriguing. However, some “outside collaboration laws” might have inhibited your desire to want to fully push or develop those ideas. So, let’s do something that I haven’t heard any modern businesses do with a new product idea, at least on this scale…
Collaborate…Releasing this new beverage idea: Together – at the same time. Why?
Five Primary Reasons:
1.) Since the collaboration will be between already established companies, the current laws on this type of offering will be minimal at best; which means you won’t be inhibited by those former or past constraints.
2.) For those companies who were on the fence (but thought the idea and the numbers looked promising) but were unable to take the leap, due to promotional or initial sale concerns… There won’t be any of those here. If this product is going to be released at the same time – by some very big players…That will only maximize “the buzz” about it – For ALL of You. The bigger the wave…The more people will be attracted to it. So, in this case, rather than directly competing against each other…With the conversation spread as wide as possible about it – that will only benefit everyone at the same time.
3.) My goal is to make this product release – one of the most enjoyable and easiest offerings you’ve ever made happen. How? Not just because of my rates, my simple contract, or my ability to help you come up with a marketing angle that will knock this out of the park; but because I have no “ulterior motives” other than to help you create one of the biggest products of the last century. Yes…I really do believe the idea is THAT BIG, or I wouldn’t be trying to accomplish something that very few people or businesses have ever attempted; at least not in a very long time…
4.) Since the ingredients are few and simple, there won’t be very much to lose, as far as investments. A couple of readily available ingredients (and you might already have them), and a few label / marketing slogan changes – and there you have it. Like I said before…The time is just ripe enough now…Where the drink – will sell itself.
5.) It may be further down the road (especially if we end-up breaking some release sales records), but I’d like to see a very small portion of the profits go to building an even more sustainable future for Coffee, the lands, and the people who grow it. Not only is this good for business in general, but since people are buying with their wallets and their heart-strings, right now…This will only be a win-win-win for everyone involved. It will be a platform to help keep that wheel of progress and growth – alive and well for many years to come. (If we really just want to keep on enjoying what we have here, as much as possible – a longer-term view into the future, will only pave our way – straight to it.)
This should be more than enough of a golden-thread for us to start and have a very good conversation for those who might have been interested in the idea. Once our agreement has been made, exactly like I promised in my proposals, I’ll be there from start-to-finish in whatever capacity that’s necessary for its release. The possibilities, the money and a finalized contract (of course) is beneficial for everyone involved; but this goes far beyond “just a sale” to me. I want everyone here to start inspiring themselves, by looking for new ways to think about how we create emotional and financial security, as there are so many more options – for everyone – to be developing on their own, and in collaboration with others who are already well-established.
If we want to build a better or a much happier future…We’ll have to start by putting some ideas into place that are just familiar enough for us to be comfortable with them; but new and exciting enough to get us to expand our horizons – for what’s really possible here.
Over the last few hundred years, we’ve built a world where almost anything can be created – for the best reasons. If we want to discover something more out of life and the business moves we’re making every day…We have the opportunity and the ability to do that – immediately…If we only give ourselves the green light to do what we “say” we’ve wanted to do here, all along:
To grow as much as we can in the easiest way possible, and to enjoy – what we’ve been able to do.
When is the last time you took notice of the sky, above you?
(Take a look up.)
Does it look crowded to you?
The sky isn't the limit, anymore. There’s actually plenty of room up there…For those who are willing to take just a single step out past where we are, right now. And – that’s it.
What happens at 25,000 Ft – that doesn’t happen at 100? Nothing…But a much better view of what’s here.
So, for those that have the insight to understand that “going up” is what we’re ALL in the process of trying to do here, anyway…
I’m looking forward to hearing from those businesses who only – want to grow past where they are now. When that option is always a tangible and real possibility, why would we want to do anything else…When we can fly?
THANK YOU:
To all of those businesses who have taken the time to read my proposals and a few of my articles…I wanted to say thanks for helping me to expand who I am – by trying to help you do the same. Although I’ve covered just about everything I wanted to say to you in general here, I’ll still be working to push the boundaries – looking for new ways for us to grow both personally and professionally; and to make it easy for us to do that – Together.
In the meantime, if you’d like to hear a few more thoughts on business, life, and how to enjoy them more often…My book titled, “A Place Where We Love To Be” which can be found on Amazon, explores how to create the maximum amount of joy, fulfillment, and prosperity that we desired to be a part of…Starting from – where we are, right now.
If you have any questions, suggestions, or if you would like to discuss any of these ideas without obligation, simply reach out in a way that’s comfortable to you. For now, I'll have two more articles for you to read; and you've never seen anything quite like this before...
Until Then…Keep Looking Up!
