Today being March 31, it seems a good time to take you back exactly 135 years, to March 31 1889, when the disgraceful Eiffel Tower was inaugurated.
A few Parisians of the day looked up at the giant new metal structure and said, “Formidable!”
Mostly though, the reactions were super negative.
Petitions started circulating, calling the Eiffel Tower “monstrous” and a “gigantic black smokestack.” One wag called it a “truly tragic street lamp.” Writer Guy de Maupassant supposedly dined at the restaurant inside the Eiffel Tower often — because it was the only place in city where he couldn’t see the structure.
Today, of course, the Eiffel Tower is iconic, perhaps the most iconic landmark in the world. (In my mind, the only possible rivals are the Statue of Liberty and the Colosseum.)
The Eiffel Tower has become a source of pride for the locals, the backdrop of a million and one romantic movies, and a contributor of billions of dollars in tourist revenue to the city of Paris.
All that’s to say, it’s silly to jump at every new thing simply because it’s new and must therefore be better.
It’s equally silly to pan and nay-say every new thing simply because it’s not what has come before.
I’m telling you this because I continue to promote the Royalty Ronin membership, and with new gusto — because after a week’s free trial, the first commissions have started to clink into my tin cup.
Travis Sago, the guy behind Royalty Ronin, might be new to you.
More importantly, many of the sales and marketing ideas that Travis teaches, like auctions, licensing, or “tapping” might be new to you.
Human instinct is to think in black and white — either, “This is gonna save me,” or, “This must be a scam.”
I’d like to invite you to take a closer look, and make up your mind based on some finer distinctions than just a Paris-style knee-jerk reaction.
I can tell you I’ve personally found Royalty Ronin and Travis’s marketing and sales ideas very profitable.
Maybe you will as well. Or maybe you won’t. Again, there’s a week’s free trial, so you don’t risk anything. If you’d like to take a closer look:
P.S. If you’ve already signed up for a trial of Royalty Ronin via my link above, forward me Travis’s welcome email — the one with “Vroom” in the subject line.
I have a small but growing bundle of bonuses, including my Heart of Hearts and my Inspiration & Engagement trainings, which are waiting for you as a way of saying thanks for taking me up on my recommendation.
