this thread isn't about being a hit piece, it's about realism.

there's lessons to be learned here, let us begin:

1) get eyes on your offers

dustin more or less created the "bump to get double bandwidth" - he knows 90% of people won't use even 25% of bandwidth, but he'll get his threads on top consistently.

the more eyes, the more sales, good publicity or bad.

2) incentivization

humans are basic really, if you incentivize someone to do something, they'll probably do it, even if it's in your favor.

(such as the bumps.)

the same thing works for the giveaways he does i.e. like this page, follow this page, you might get a $20 chinese keyboard.

3) make connections

with the right connections you can do big things.

the right connections can make people forget your past.

4) PR

in continuance to the last point -- dustin is overly robotic, internally he might be >:-| but externally he keeps it pg and "professional".

though, it does work for specific audiences, particularly B2B.

5) be flexible

dustin is ultimately a reseller, when he expands he's not really expanding, he's just renting a new server and delegating the resources out.

that way his investment isn't too big, and you can make moves fast.

6) value stacking (as mentioned in one of my past threads)

alike many others, dustin recently advertised free clientexec with an existing service what costs him a monthly NOC fee he can then and go advertise to his clients as $100+ yearly value for a low ticket product.

the perception matters, and the value is conveyed.


there's more to it than that, but that covers the bases.

dustin is a good salesman, i'm sure he brings in good money.

man to man i can respect the hustle.

love,

foxy

P.S. comment #COCKANDBALLS for absolutely nothing.

    Racknerd should just buy LET, for real, and if Racknerd deadpools, it takes all the shit with it.
    The world would be a better place after this day.

    What if we already own it?

    +1 for @dustinc being a boss level hustler with amazingly professional interpersonal skills.

    We do invest in our business - advertisements are important. Can't create flow, without being seen/known.

    We are going all in with our expansions! More to be announced 😉

    ROI is everything, if its cheaper to rent a hooker instead of buying it, that does makes sense.
    If you going to deadpool soonTM, but in the long term, would be cheaper just to buy.

    This thread's been up for over 20 mins and not a single giveaway has been posted yet. I'm disappointed.

    Do people buy from humans or robots? Possibly both? What is your valuable opinion on this?

  • Sorry, but imho you came off as a hater. Most wont disagree with what you posted and most on here know it already... So why post it and claim it isnt a hit piece?

    I personally hate humans, so I welcome our robot overlords. In saying that, I love the human touch, so a humanized robotic salesman would be ideal.

    @SirFoxy I stole your mic, soz, have that back..

    You know a lot of people hate on advertisements and salesmanship, but honestly when I get connected with someone trying to make an honest living who sells me something I want, even if I didn't know I wanted it before they offered it (the real win for sales), I'm pretty damn happy. Seems to me that a lot of people are connecting with these offers and feeling like they came out on top, and I'm for it.
