Part 2: Oooomph the Opening

Key1. If then intro

"If you'd like to be financially free, then you need to act on your financial strategies"

Key 2.

Key 3. Be specific

Don't say i earned a million pesos; show instead how much exactly you earned.

Dont say my product last longer than my competitors; say my product last 2 x more than the closest competition

Key4. Give the reason why you are writing him

****I am writing you this letter because I care for you and your family's future. I know how it is to be financially struggling and wallow in debts. I have been in that very frustrating and desperate situation and it is not pleasurable. I want you to achieve financial independence and enjoy your retirement.

Part 3: Present the Problem

...and agitate the problem!

But do not talk down your customer. Use yourself or someone else for your sharing.

Key1. Find and feed an existing hunger

Pick a need that they already know they have

**** " Are you feeling insecure about your job? Do you fear retrenchment and down sizing is slowly catching up on you? Or are you financial illiterate and heavily indebted? Do you constantly struggle from pay check to pay check. Are you worried that you do not have a financial strategy for you and your family? I know the feeling because I had been in that situation. "

98% of Filipino Senior Citizens are financially struggling and majority of them (about 45%) depend on their children. So many of my friends who had retired and got their separation pay from the company we worked for had lost their money only after 2-3 years. I pity Pepe ( not his real name) who had earned so much during his working years but died poor without a decent healthcare protection. He had to even rely from the dole outs of friends. Why? He relied on the healthcare program his previous company provided that was automatically taken away when he retired from the company.

Another friend (Susan) went into failed business and investments for she did not learn how to invest properly and did not have a chance to get coached how to do it. She lost more than 2Million Pesos.

But you do not have to experience all of this. I can show you how I retire at age 51 financially free and increased my net worth to more than 8 figures!

Part4: Describe the Dream
Picture the dream
Paint the dream

But you know what you can be like this...

You can experience...

***"You are retired and is old but you have tons of money to take care of yourself, and your money don't get depleted. You take your whole family, including your grand children on a yearly local tour , and once every two years on a pilgrimage to Europe and enjoy gelatto in Italy where St. francis once walked.

Your children and grand children and friends kiss you and greet you happy birthday and you give them gifts rather than you asking from them. Each day is worry free for you have passive income that comes to you more than you need. You go to your doctor for regular check up. You are driven to your gym for your regular exercise and life is so enjoyable and so good for you and your family!"

Part 5: Boast YourBackground

Key1. Be personal

Probably, you are asking who I am...

Key2: if you can, be the first testimony

By the way you may be wondering who I am. ...

Key3: parade your achievements. But parade warmth over winds

For the past 32 years, i have had been able to make clients rich and they are grateful and I fell fulffilled

Key4: you should show your uniqueness

***"Probably you are wondering why a Mechanical Engineer like me talks about retiring financially free. In 2008 January, Fely; my beautiful wife retired from Intel after 25 long years of serving that company. After a year it was my turn to be retired after being in the semiconductor and electronics manufacturing industry for more than 28 long years.. We were financially stupid to say the least so we were afraid that we will lose all our retirement money. We had humongous 7 figure debts and we have a yearly obligation of 500,000Php to send our kids ( Chai and Rocky) to the green archers school in Manila. I felt so insecure, had lots of sleepless nights, and got into arguments and fights with people I love because I got so irritable due my financial woes.

But all these became the starting point of my career detour. I put to action what we learned from Bro Bo's Truly Rich Coaching Seminar and got into a company called IMG-International Marketing Company. Fely and I were coached how to manage our finances, how to get out of debts, and how to invest properly. We started to share our experience to our family and friends encouraging them to follow our example. In less than 3 years after my retirement, we were able to get out of our bad debts, had profitable investments, and was able to start to generate passive income of more than 153,678Php/month in 2012. We have been able to change more than 3000 people's lives all over the world and landed on top of our own company. I am now happily retired and financially free "
