Weāve just received an award by Clickfunnels called the 2 Comma Club Award š±
This is an international award given to those who generated $1,000,000 from only one product & one sales process (website)ā¦
We achieved this not just once, but twice in a row! Both in the digital & physical product arenas.
And... I'm the 1st Filipino to achieve this ššµš
But I donāt want this post to be a long story thatās all about me, instead, I want this to be about YOU!
In fact, I want to share my top 10 lessons I learned in the past 10 years with just a 10-minute read.
I will literally pull back my curtain and share with you the failures & mistakes I learned after selling over half a billion in sales online.
This can literally be a $997 online course. But Iāve decided to give it all away for FREE!
This is my way of giving back.
Note: There might be marketing terms that might not easily be understood by newbies. Just feel free to save this post & go back to it in the future.
Letās go! š
LESSON #1: You Only Need 1 Product, 1 Sales Process, and 1 Traffic Source
This is how I got my 2 Comma Club award twice!
For my first 2CC award, it was just one membership site product, a webinar funnel with 3 pages, and FB ads.
For my second 2CC award, it was just one supplement product, a sales video with 2 pages, and FB ads.
Yes, simple scales, fancy fails!
It might be a different story when scaling to 9 figures and beyond. But to get to 8 figures, itās just that.
The boring stuff always wins.
LESSON #2: Advertising Is NEVER an Expense
Well, this is only applicable when you understand direct response advertising and when you understand your numbers.
But my rule for my team isā¦ We keep scaling and adding more budget so long as weāre profitable.
Weāve spent 6 figures a day in ads just to sell 1 product alone.
Itās not because Iām rich and I can burn money. But because I know my numbers.
And my team reports to me those numbers every single day.
LESSON #3: ROAS (Return On Adspent) Is Just Hype
Whatās better?
Option A: 10x ROAS w/ P10k adpsent or
Option B: 5x ROAS w/ P1M adspent
In Option A, you made P90,000 in net sales, but in Option B, you made P4M in net sales.
At the end of the day, itās not about the ROAS. Itās about volume.
Itās like saying you made 1000% ROI in your stock investment but you only invested P1k.
Yes, you technically made a high return, but itās still not a life changing amount.
LESSON #4: I Donāt Compute Profit. I Compute ROI (Return On Investment)
Whatās better?
Option A: P1M profit w/ a revolving fund of P10M or
Options B: P500k profit w/ a revolving fund of P1M
In option A, my profit was higher compared to the second option but I only made a 10% ROIā¦ But in option B, I made a crazy 50% ROI in just 1 month.
Most people just look at how much profit they made but disregard how much capital they have to put in to generate that amount.
Why is this important? Because the lower your ROI, the higher your risk is.
Thatās why people who made a profit in the past years, can easily get wiped out with just a few months of losses.
LESSON #5: Profit Does Not Always Equal to Cash
I almost lost my business in 2019. Because I made millions in profit. But when I checked my bank account, I only had a few thousands left.
In fact, I only have 2 months of operating expenses left.
I was considering to take a job just to pay my team (yes, this has been a secret til now hehe)
But this was a lesson that I learnedā¦
The most important number in businessā¦ Is NOT revenue, NOT assets, NOT expensesā¦ Itās CASH!
This became my action-plan moving forward, speeding up all the cash inflowā¦ Slowing down all the cash outflow.
It didnāt matter if I gave up a little bit of profits to speed up the collection or Iād spend a little bit more on interest to slow down the payables.
Because since then, what mattered most was CASH in the bank!
LESSON #6: Education First, Assets Second, Liabilities Third.
If youāre earning less than P100k per month right now. Hereās my adviceā¦ Do NOT buy assets!
In 2018, I had millions in the bankā¦ Instead of buying an asset, I invested it in a mastermind.
Back then it was $30,000 or around P1.6M in Philippine currency to join the mastermind.
My friends and family thought I was CRAZY.
But guess what, if I had bought an asset, that would have gotten a 100% ROI by now.
But since I invested in education, itās now a 1,000,000% ROI.
LESSON #7: Our Businesses Are Making a Lot of Money But Iām Broke.
When the business is making P1M per month, we now think weāre making P1M per monthā¦ NO!
Youāre just an employee of the business, and at the same time a shareholder.
Meaningā¦ There are only 2 ways for you to make moneyā¦.
1) Salary
2) Dividends
As CEO, the business pays me a salary. This is what we use for our daily expenses.
On top of that, every quarter, the business pays me dividends. This is to incentivize the risk Iām taking. This is what I use to fund the next business venture.
So make sure you have separate accounts for each. Never merge them.
(Well, I did merge them when I was getting started because my salary back then was P10k, but the business was earning only P5k. So thereās no point separating them that time haha)
LESSON #8: Market First, Offer Second, Messaging Third
There are a lot of skills that's needed to be learnedā¦ Selling, doing FB ads, creating funnels, finding winning products, writing sales copy, and many more.
Over time I mastered every single skillā¦ But I noticed, there are a few tweaks I made that made all the difference. Itās thisā¦
Step #1: Targeting a thirsty market
Step #2: Selling them water they canāt find anywhere else
Step #3: Communicating how your product helps them move away from pain or move towards pleasure
You may be very good at everything. But if you miss this, you will continue to struggle forever.
LESSON #9: Problems In Business Will NEVER Go Away
A business will either go up or go down, either way a problem exists.
People problem, customer problem, advertising problem, and many moreā¦
Instead of creating a fake dream of hoping all the problems will be solvedā¦ I create a new story in my mind that God appointed me to be a problem solver and thatās my calling.
So I accepted it. And just made it part of my everyday life.
LESSON #10: Iām Just Like You
I may have sold half a billion in sales onlineā¦
I may have accumulated a total of 1M followers across all platformsā¦
Butā¦ I never thought about it (except when writing this hehe)
I mean like, Iām just a normal kid. I'm just like you.
Thatās why you see me attend seminars and enroll in coursesā¦
I keep asking and I keep learningā¦
Iām just a sponge every time absorbing new things from different people.
I mean, I never considered myself as āsuccessfulā yet.
In my mind, I just have to accomplish the next level or next rank, so I can continue learning from people who are above me. Thatās it. That's my motivation.
Up until now, I feel like I donāt know everything yet and I will continue to keep learning.
Wew! Finally! I donāt usually write long posts like this. But I felt like I was called to do it š
But wait! If youāve learned something from this post, can I ask for a quick favor please? š
Can you please send me a message right now and share with me your #1 biggest takeaway from my post?
Reading messages means a lot to me and it would make my day. Thank you in advance āŗļø

Why having a website is essential to businesses?
Having a website is essential for businesses for several reasons, including:
1. Online Presence
A website allows a business to have a presence on the internet, which is essential in today's digital age. Customers can easily find information about the business, its products or services, and its location, which can help to attract new customers.
2. Credibility
A website can enhance a business's credibility. Potential customers are more likely to trust a business that has a professional-looking website, as it shows that the business is serious about its operations.
3. Increased Reach
A website allows a business to reach a wider audience. With the increasing use of the internet, more and more people are turning to online channels to search for products and services. Having a website means that a business can tap into this potential customer base.
4. Marketing
A website is an excellent marketing tool for businesses. It allows businesses to showcase their products or services, run promotions, and provide valuable information to potential customers.
5. Customer Service
A website can also help to improve customer service. Businesses can provide a range of self-help resources on their website, such as FAQs, which can help to reduce the number of customer inquiries.
Overall, having a website is essential for businesses as it provides an online presence, enhances credibility, increases reach, serves as a marketing tool, and improves customer service.
