Rich Schefren is an expert in business optimization, productivity, and business growth. He first had success in the offline business world with The Family Clothing Store in Manhattan and went on to build a chain of profitable hypnosis centers.
Rich started as a consultant, helping many established Internet marketers like Mike Filsaime, Harlan Kilstein and Jeff Walker with his business management training. In 2004, he started Strategic Profits, a company started to help Internet marketers grow their business, and teach them the skills to effectively manage their time and productivity.
Rich first caught attention of the Internet marketing community with the Internet Business Manifesto Report. In the report, he addresses a common problem that many people have: They themselves are responsible for building the content, building the list, building traffic, networking, researching the market, building the business, solving legal matters, buying advertising, setting up the technical aspects of the business, and more.
As a result, most marketers are overwhelmed by all the tasks that are needed to be done. The amount of work and an ineffective strategy to accomplish tasks stalls progress, leads to failed goals, and frustration for the average person. This problem is the biggest reason why so many people fail at building a profitable Internet marketing business. Rich’s focus is on setting up systems to automate your business so you can focus on important tasks and have more free time.
One example that Rich addresses is the concept of outsourcing versus out-tasking. While most Internet marketers think they solve the problem of completing their tasks by hiring other people, many are only focusing on the short term results.
It’s not uncommon to see outsourced projects fall apart. There are times when the freelance you hire delivers poor quality of work or bails out on the project, resulting in lost time. Even if you successfully outsource a project, the person may not be available for the next project, leaving you to seek out another freelancer.
Rather than constantly cycle through freelancers, Rich advises to build a strong team around you that can help get your tasks done without you babysitting the whole process. By systemizing tasks to a manager and by setting up a hiring process, you eliminate the need to look for new talent.
Rich sells various courses on his website: Business Growth System, Business Acceleration Program, Joint Venture Partnerships Guide, Strengths Mastery Advantage, and Guided Profit System. His main product is the Business Growth System which helps business owners systemize their business through 11 modules to help them increase their bottom line and free up more of their time.
In conclusion, Rich delivers great information on being efficient with your time and effective in your business. His Business Growth System in particular is an effective program that helps you organize your business, manage your time, increase productivity, and set up a system so your business can grow without you having to constantly manage it.
Rich also provides excellent customer service and he backs all his products with a money-back guarantee. The only complaint I have about Rich’s training programs is that while it is very comprehensive, there is too much information and it was poorly organized. There is great value but it’ll take some time to absorb the information and apply it. If Rich could simplify the training further and present it better, it would really benefit his customers.

So far, that is First I need to say that I haven't bought anything from this guy. It's not because I think that's not worth it (on the contrary). It's just that I am at the beginning on my IM journey and don't really have thousands to afford. Once I have them, this is going to be my first investment. What I can and do recommend is the free stuff you can get from this guy. Grab everything, no matter where you are, in what phase. Why am I so convinced that he is the deal? Well, first, until I stumbled upon Schefren, I have hardly heard anyone making so much sense about strategy or "the big picture", let alone making it the very center of his entire teachings. And the center is exactly where something vital as strategy should be. Second - Schefren is showing you how to recognize and leverage your own advantages, unlike the packaged-one-fit-all solutions sold to aspiring internet marketers every day. Third is how to optimize your work in order to get things done quickly and start making money sooner. He is talking about different kinds of processes - systems and projects - and what kind of work and pace they require. There's so much more, but I'll stop here. First, like I said, I haven't bought anything from this guy yet. Second, I have to go now and finish my note taking on his 3 hour webinar where he's selling his 3000$ program. Whether you are buying it or not, let me tell you this: first two hours of (free) webinar are pure gold. Listen to it, pause it and take notes. |

This guy is one of the real internet marketers What interests me about Rich is the sense of real you get with his products and website. This guy is down to earth and doesn't try to impress you but advises you to look at solutions whether than problems. I got his "internet Manifesto" which really gave me some great motivation to keep on marketing and really awoke my adventitious side again. Rich Schefren provides translatable messages that aren't hyped up with a whole bunch of marketing words, he tells you what to do in a real way. I've been to his website and his programs and products are expensive so I haven't invested in them but nonetheless his messages are clear to me.

Rich is awesome! Rich Schefren is one of the best internet marketers in the world. My mentor was even trained by Rich Schefren and he became a big help to his business. This guy teaches us how can we will be successful in the online world. If you listen to this guy you will learn information to make business automation a snap. I can say he can be a key component to anybody's business and he loves helping others instead of marketing to him, he markets with them. He earned me a lot of money. I can say he changed my life with his great advices.

Not For Newbies Rich is great at what he does. He's a guru's guru. He's a take charge kind of guy. And he kicks you in the butt when you read some of his copy. Because for him a lot of this stuff is easy. He thinks differently than most of us. He's willing to take risks and say what's really on his mind despite the consequences. That's how he draws people in because he's so "real". I recently read one of his reports with Jay Abraham. It's all about eliminating constraints. He says (and I completely agree with him) that once you eliminate the constraints in your business you can move forward. Which is to say, "stop looking at the problem and start looking at the solution. " He also says to find out what's stopping you and put a stop to it. Whatever it may be. Most of the time it's fear. And there's only one way to beat that... ACTION. |

Awesome but definitely not for newbies Rich's stuff is awesome. He's one of the few where you should try to read and implement everything he teaches. Yes his stuff is expensive and I don't think his target market is "newbies". You really need to have an established business to be able to take advantage of most of his stuff, and it's mainly geared towards growing an existing business. This is "real" business stuff, not get-rich-quick make money tomorrow type stuff that so many others are peddling.

Watch out for People who Bandy his name? Sometimes people bolster themselves prefaced upon the reputation of others. In many instances, I have seen professed "gurus" proclaim that they have gained knowledge as either a student of his or through some business relationship with him. So, while I have no reason to doubt his credentials, I am concerned that people might be duped into buying a product or service just because they see his name. As I have said with other products, be aware of false or misleading advertising. Just because his name is used does not mean that he has anything to do with the product.

He's a nice guy I am on Rich's mailing list. He does give out a lot of good information. He even sent out The Internet Manifesto, which is a very good read, for free, no strings attached. We do need someone like him especially for a brand newbie like me who are just starting out to guide us in the field.Yes I totally agreed with this review about his teaching and fundamentals that are a bit too advanced for new guys. It would be better if they are a little more simple and concise. I feel his new traiings are far too costly for newbies to join. He also gives live training webinars where he answers questions or doubts anyone has. Great GURU. |
