about how I made $10,000 on Craigslist
it's Drake profit straight-up provocated

that stuff I'm gonna show you why this
was so lucrative how I was able to beat
out my competitors without having to do
anything other than what I was already
doing you guys stick around cuz this is
gonna be good alright so for you guys
who don't want to stick around you're
like oh I don't want to want to make
some thousand dollars that's ok because
my video guys gonna drop a secret code
somewhere in this video alright so we're
in here there will be a secret code
alright
and whoever enters that code first

$25 Amazon gift card
alright so stick around guys now let's
talk about let's talk about how I was
able to do ten thousand dollars selling
on Craigslist alright there's gonna be a
tutorial going to show you exactly how
interrupt a computer but first we need
to break this down alright one I
identified my target market okay I
identified my target market knew what
they need it and was able to jump in and
cater directly to them at a fraction of
the price of other people okay which
means a two point number two number one
number one was fine in the market
alright number two is identifying their
price point and the pain of said price
points of other competitor okay you have
to identify the perfect price point okay
because if you come in and you're
competing with some other person at
their price point and you can't prove
that you're better
what are you doing it for all right you
need to come in and build that up right
you need to come in build it up don't
just go for the kill shot day one
build it up compete all is gonna do is
cost you a little bit of your time
that's it a little bit of time guys all
right you find your target market and
then you can Pete on price okay very
simple very simple you remember those
two things you're gonna make a ton of
money just like I'm gonna show you how I
did all right
let's go on to the Roughnecks computer
let's break this down see you right
there so guys a few years ago I guess I
should give you a little context on how
this all worked out
you know the shop was just we were
bogged down with a ridiculous amount of
work right we had way way way way way
too much work you know we just couldn't
get you know any cars in to get tuned
like you just had our hands full and so
I'm like at this point like we couldn't
take any more you know those cars and so
I'm like ah you know I make a little
money on the side you know we the shops
coming along everyone's happy money's
coming in you know let's let's not even
worry about it so I posted up something
on Craigslist you know just for myself
using open open-source software right
and yeah baby see you flash and a ROM
Raider for you guys that are in the know
in the car community you know so
typically you know I charge you know
right off the bat 300 bucks just to hook
up to your you know to your car okay so
with this since I wasn't doing it as far
as the shop I was doing it as an
individual I you know I wasn't really
charging people you know that much I'm
like hey look you know 350 I can get a
basic tune done for you you know some go
fast stuff you'll be safe you make
plenty of power you be good to go for
like big things you start getting any 85
and big turbos and all that stuff you
know I'll come out to you but I'm gonna
need to draw the car for a little while
to get your fuel trims just right and so
on and so forth now granted people like
oh yeah you know but you're only gonna
do like one or two cars and no the guys
like this happens all the time people
want to go fast I knew that because you
know obviously how shot people are
willing to spend whatever and you know
the season comes around where people are
you know looking to get out there in the
streets or go to the track and start you
know making some Jam you know they want
to go fast man summer you know hits ups
but well spring is really when it starts
you know spring is when it rolls around
and people really want to start more
faster and they want to you know make
that power all that power
so hey who better to do it than someone
who's you know familiar with the
platform who knows exactly what they're
doing so you know
350 bucks people were getting done but
you guys have to realize there is a
whole lot more to it 350 bucks is
actually extremely cheap for getting a
tune so I was able to undercut the
market provide better value in service
and then you know still killing you know
so you guys have to think about that for
a second you know if you guys can
provide value you can make tons and tons
of money tons of money I did over 10k
with just this you know gold $350 tune
like granite I had to do a whole lot of
them but guys like it really didn't
matter because it's all profit like if
you're doing photography or making cakes
or whatever it is you know it's just
really taking your time you know if
you're willing to exchange a little bit
of your time then go right ahead this is
one of my my listings right here that
was actually removed um yeah I was
knocking people out of the out of the
market at this point but I'll show you
why it's so lucrative
why 350 bucks was killing everyone else
you know people are coming here you know
getting tuned and you know I love Mike
by the way so don't don't take this as
no disrespect or anything I love my
body's cool is all get-out one of the
coolest guys I've ever met actually um
you know but hey you know 600 bucks
1100 bucks you know 1200 bucks 1600
bucks like it and granted this is what
it should be okay
you know 1600 bucks is is right around
the going rate if you want to do a
flex-fuel setup and all that like it I'd
I wouldn't do a flexural setup for like
less than this because it takes so much
time you know there's so much time and
effort put into it you want to make sure
you get it just right like a yeah 1600
bucks guys but think about that you know
1600 bucks why do you think I'm in the
automotive industry I mean not just
because I absolutely love cars but guys
like we could charge an absorbent amount
of money for you know certain things and
people will pay it like clockwork you
know and this rip this is all just your
time guys so imagine you charging $1,000
a tune you know for like flex fuel
seller you get good with $1,000 people
will pay $1,000 for their cars no
problem no questions asked same thing
with import DPS I love these guys
they're a big honda shop out in philly
you know these guys they have a real
fast
hatch i also heard you know they had a
couple issues with it but brought like
they do some of the fastest Honda's in
the area literally they do like a good
chunk of the fast Honda's in the area
and you know it's 500 bucks guys 550 for
a you know for a dyno tune you know for
a turbo team you know Honda is you know
the S 3000 like
back in the day it was super advanced
but compared to other ECU's on the
market not really you know it's it's not
all that it's not all that great you
know the parameters are still decent but
you know compared to what you have now
yeah it's you know it's pretty much set
and forget you know most people you know
don't even use all the you know use the
full abilities because Honda's are just
so cheap and easy
you know so you 550 bucks blooming in
and out because they're they're just
that easy you know but then you have
GTRs like it's just a basic stage to
tune you know this is on ecutek engine
and transmission remapping guys like
here we go
you know 900 bucks 950 BAM 900 bucks
it takes you nothing but your time is
not gonna kill you it's not gonna break
the bank you can pretty much get in get
out make your money why in the world are
you not trying to sell your service on
Craigslist or on your own website or
through Instagram or Facebook it's one
of the easiest ways to build out capital
literally like if you are struggling and
you need to make money very quickly and
you don't want to follow one of the
tenants that you know I I preached in
the webinar and in the e-book and that's
flipping free stuff on Craigslist then
selling your services is quick and easy
it's one of the fastest things that you
can do in as long as you can prove your
worth it's not gonna be a problem people
are going to pay I mean look at this
guy's like in your mind you like no
one's gonna pay this this is Mike body
he is one of the greatest tuners in our
industry he is well known so for him to
charge $1600 for his time is a drop in
the bucket people will pay this no
problem when you were that good doesn't
matter if you're national or local your
name and your work will sell it it will
sell and therefore you can charge
whatever you want people charge crazy
page crazy prices for wedding
photography okay I'm like what I'm
spinning how much money for for wedding
photos and all that stuff you know get
out of town yeah that's that's when I
was married
back in the bank back then you know back
when I you know was young and naive but
um yeah guys like just think about this
this is how I was able to make so much
money and even at 350 dollars you know I
had to do way more than a lot of people
but 350 bucks that's all profit and it
really didn't take me that much time
because the car is always - now I
already figured out already you know I
had maps you know from basically every
you know calibration there was a bolt on
the knee and you just finesse it you
know you're like all right this is where
I start it if there's any kind of
mechanical issues you figure it out you
know help them but for the most part you
know you don't have to go crazy and
reinvent the wheel all right you know
some cars make more power than others
but for the most part you know you can
kind of guess what that power is gonna
be according to what they have you know
like yeah you're gonna be tuning them
making sure everything's good and safe
and that the tune is set for their car
you're not gonna be a cookie cutter
off-the-shelf type of thing so it does
take a little bit more time but guys a
couple hours like couple of hours out of
your time like where else are you gonna
make you know 550 bucks for a couple
hours not too many places unless you're
doing things that are very promiscuous
and you're not supposed to be doing
unless you're in New York where it's
decriminalized now I'm pretty sure you
guys know what I'm talking about so yeah
guys that's why I did it that is exactly
how I did it I had a very basic ad
posted up on Craigslist very basic tags
but I knew what people wanted and boom
there you go that is it that's a quick
and easy way man you know I'm not even
joking with you this is exactly how I
did it and it was one of the best things
to ever ever happen to me you know
because it was just such quick money it
was quick and easy and boom there you go
you made can't you know ten thousand
dollars like literally where else oh
you're gonna be able to do that you know
without much you know with without much
effort not too many places so you know
there's that but yeah guys so if you
