I'm taking notes and making sure the program covers the ones that I can use.This already looks amazing and I will definitely get it. It would be useful to have some goals that consider the needs of our potential clients. My suggestions below are already partially covered elsewhere, and perhaps could just give you ideas for the scripting rather than goals.
It would be good to have explicit goals to maximize the value you bring to the marketplace (I know it's partially covered by think win-win). Ultimately we get paid for the value we bring.
Jay Abraham's Strategy of Preeminence provides some fantastic beliefs that would be very useful: http://www.abraham.com/strategy-of-preeminence/
Eg.
- fall in love with your prospects / clients, not your product / service
- do your absolute best to meet their needs and desires
I know people will have done Alpha Male beforehand, but even more improved leadership would be great! Becoming a great leader and great manager will help us to become great CEOs. These are again partially covered by a few other points, but are massively important to becoming a successful entrepreneur: to maximize a business' success it will need to hire staff to scale up. (Even if it was a one-man band he would need to properly lead and manage himself, although this is covered by many of the other points: goal setting, focus, etc).
Many people may not yet have businesses they run. It would be useful to push them in a direction where they pick up on opportunities - and for those of us with businesses already, to pick up on new opportunities (partially covered e.g. by Luck Magnifier).
If you happen to be a Fastlane Insider at MJ DeMarco's forum there are some good threads about finding opportunities:
http://www.thefastlaneforum.com/communit...ies.50609/
Summary: Listen to people - the easiest way to always have new business opportunities is to talk with people and let them share with you their pains, problems, needs, and/or wants.
http:// http://www.thefastlaneforum.com/...eas.53032/
Summary: The real secret is to find PAIN POINTS in your daily routine. You have to identify what frustrates you in your business? personal life? relationships?
Then, what you do is think of the effects that may happen when this PAIN POINT isn't resolved. Use that to generate an idea for a profitable business.
The last thing I checked to get ideas was the Hidden Secret in Think and Grow Rich:
Step 1: Have a burning desire to accomplish one major definite purpose
Step 2: Have faith that you will succeed
Step 3: Organize a definite plan and take action
Step 4: Never give up until you achieve your one major definite purpose.
The secret ingredient: Consistency in all steps
But it looks like that should all be covered!

With all that in mind, here are some suggestions - either for explicit goals in the program or to add into the scripting somewhere.
- maximize the value you bring to others (AND get fairly compensated for that value!)
- do your absolute best to meet your clients' needs, wants and desires
- improved listening and empathy to discover business opportunities
- creating an inspiring vision that others want to join and support
- become the best leader and manager you can be
While not a program goal, the scripting for Maximize Sales Success that is used could have the idea behind the great book "Go for No" added to it:
-each "no" is not a rejection, but you getting closer to a "yes"!
This helps to make sales much more pleasant.

This is going to be absolutely incredible. Thank you Shannon!
