''While he was still speaking, Judas came, one of the twelve, and with him a great crowd with swords and clubs, from the chief priests and the elders of the people (Matthew 26:47).'' Jesus was a political threat to the Jewish people and the Roman Empire. Such a threat that the soldiers needed to come out in full riot gear to apprehend Him. It was an all-out manhunt to apprehend one man. But Jesus was more than a political threat. He was a serious religious threat. In "God's country", the religious scene is the most important aspect of life. Jesus came to turn the world upside down. The chief priests and elders didn't want their lives turned upside down. They had worked hard to ensure their spots at the top of the religious totem pole. Now Jesus threatened to put them on the bottom. I'm sure many in the crowd wanted Jesus to resist arrest. They wanted an excuse to use the swords and clubs to take care of Jesus. That would alleviate their problem with Pontius Pilate. They come heavily armed so that they might get rid of the Son of God. And He overcomes them with only His Word as a weapon. Amen.

'While self-righteousness loosens the tongues of fools,' writes Howard Jacobson, 'self-censorship ties the tongues of the wise.' Howard argues that it's not autocracy that has bedevilled us in the past twelve months, it is levity. Producer: Adele Armstrong

Jesus told his disciples a parable about the necessity for them to pray always without becoming weary. He said, "There was a judge in a certain town who neither feared God nor respected any human being. And a widow in that town used to come to him and say, 'Render a just decision for me against my adversary.' For a long time the judge was unwilling, but eventually he thought, 'While it is true that I neither fear God nor respect any human being, because this widow keeps bothering me I shall deliver a just decision for her lest she finally come and strike me.'" The Lord said, "Pay attention to what the dishonest judge says. Will not God then secure the rights of his chosen ones who call out to him day and night? Will he be slow to answer them? I tell you, he will see to it that justice is done for them speedily. But when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on earth?"

Rev. Cassandra writes, 'While we know, understand, and love using spiritual principles for our personal experience, how do we apply our teaching to the collective? How does my freedom relate to our freedom and vice versa? And ultimately, how do we live the truth of our Oneness in today’s world? Join us as we explore the interconnectedness of all people through our shared humanity as well as our mutual divinity. ’ I know I will be leaning in with notepaper and pen to capture every bit of understanding about this vastly impactful topic.

A sign help may be on the way for small tourism operators struggling with Department of Conservation fees.There's been a plea for the fees paid by businesses who operate on department land to be waived, until borders re-open.Conservation Minister Eugenie Sage told Kate Hawkesby if the fees relate to activity prior to the lockdown, then it's legitimate that DOC is asking for it.She says despite that she's asked DOC to look at some options to waive activity fees while the borders are closed.Sage told Kate Hawkesby one woman she's spoken to, had been working in a reception role for a guiding company.'While it's quite new for her to be out controlling wildings - she's doing really valuable work for conservation."LISTEN ABOVE

Golf courses across New Zealand are calling for an essential service exemption as they face the "risk of catastrophic turf death" amounting to $10 million.New Zealand Golf chief executive Dean Murphy says they have put in a request to the Government for an exemption that permits the "essential maintenance" of golf facilities.Sports facilities are not on the essential services list as it stands - and golf courses are not allowed to have a single maintenance worker tending to the course."There is a risk of catastrophic turf death on putting greens due to disease, insect activity and lack of water. If this occurs the consequences could be major for our golf facilities – the cost of repair plus loss of business could be well in excess of $10 million," Murphy said.'While the playing of golf is non-essential during this crisis, if critical parts of golf facilities do not receive some basic maintenance over the shutdown period, the task of repatriating to current conditions may not be achievable nor affordable for a great number of clubs."Growth on most of the grass surfaces can be brought back under control after a period of non-maintenance, however on fine turf surfaces this could be a difficult and protracted process."On March 31, the Minister for Sport and Recreation, Grant Robertson, responded to questions from National's Nikki Kaye on the possibility of golf course maintenance becoming an essential service.Robertson said he had been advised of the economic implications if golf courses and other turf based sports, including national stadiums, if turf maintenance was not regularly completed."My officials at Sport NZ have raised the issues with the Ministry of Innovation, Business and Employment (MBIE)," Robertson said."If maintenance of these areas were to become an essential service there will be clear restrictions for the health and safety of the community and turf management workers."Robertson said Sport NZ was expecting to receive a response from MBIE "shortly" on whether a golf course essential service exemption could be made.National's sport and recreation spokesman Nikki Kaye said yesterday the Government was taking too long in making a decision on the turf maintenance exemption."The minister said a week ago work was going on regarding this," Kaye said."The Government is effectively causing millions in damage when the reality is we are talking often one person being able to go onsite or in some situations lives on site to do essential maintenance."The Government needs to move on this issue – the current decision is not a smart one."If we don't, when restrictions are lifted around physical activity, a lot of people will not be able to go to their local club because there will have to be a whole lot of repairs which clubs can't necessarily afford."According to Golf NZ, over 2000 people are employed in the New Zealand golf sector and it contributes over $1 billion to the national economy each year.New Zealand has in excess of 400 golf courses, facilities and venues.All operations and play at New Zealand Golf courses, facilities and venues has now ceased for the Covid-19 shutdown period.

Part IIIShowing how they met by appointment in a grove, where she obliged him to fight or wed her.Early on a summer's morning,When bright Phoebus was adorningEvery bower with his beams,The fair lady came, it seems.At the bottom of a mountain,Near a pleasant crystal fountain,There she left her gilded coach,While the grove she did approach.Covered with her mask, and walking,There she met her lover talkingWith a friend that he had brought;So she asked him whom he sought.'I am challenged by a gallant,Who resolves to try my talent;Who he is I cannot say,But I hope to show him play.''It is I that did invite you,You shall wed me, or I'll fight you,Underneath those spreading trees;Therefore, choose you which you please.'You shall find I do not vapour,I have brought my trusty rapier;Therefore, take your choice,' said she,'Either fight or marry me.'Said he, 'Madam, pray what mean you?In my life I've never seen you;Pray unmask, your visage show,Then I'll tell you aye or no.''I will not my face uncoverTill the marriage ties are over;Therefore, choose you which you will,Wed me, sir, or try your skill.'Step within that pleasant bower,With your friend one single hour;Strive your thoughts to reconcile,And I'll wander here the while.'While this beauteous lady waited,The young bachelors debatedWhat was best for to be done:Quoth his friend, 'The hazard run.'If my judgment can be trusted,Wed her first, you can't be worsted;If she's rich, you'll rise to fame,If she's poor, why! you're the same.'He consented to be married;All three in a coach were carriedTo a church without delay,Where he weds the lady gay.Though sweet pretty Cupids hoveredRound her eyes, her face was coveredWith a mask, - he took her thus,Just for better or for worse.With a courteous kind behaviour,She presents his friend a favour,And withal dismissed him straight,That he might no longer wait.Find us online at thatsnotcanon.com/epigraphySubscribe to us on ITUNES, STITCHER, SPOTIFY, RADIOPUBLIC or your podcatcher of choice.Find us on FACEBOOK, TWITTER or INSTAGRAM.

CNN Ratings Hit NEW LOW Amid Leaks Proving They Push Fake News About Trump. The ratings are in and they are bad. CNN Drew a peak of just over 8 million viewers for the Democratic Debates and while that is a large number it is down nearly 50% from the first debate and down several million from the previous debate.But CNN ratings have been doing poorly for some time. In fact they may have been actually helped by CNN's President's Trump obsession. According to new leaks from Project Veritas, James O'Keefe, and a whistleblower, since Zucker took over he has demanded that everything be 'All Trump All the Time.'While many of us suspected that the network was pushing far left politics and anti Trump rhetoric on purpose for some time these leaks show us definitive proof that the president of CNN believes complete and absurd fake news and demands his staff push these stories onto the public.While the Trump bump may have helped CNN in the past people are experiencing Trump fatigue and tuning out. The drop in ratings is partly due to the non stop wall to wall coverage of every minor detail in Trump's life.In the end the exhausted public tunes out or becomes annoyed giving conservatives and republicans a boost. Democrats actually start believing the fake news themselves and in the end get driven far left and end up out of touch with most Americans.A new report shows Trump handily winning in 2020 and these may be contributing factors.Support the show (http://timcast.com/donate)

Beth and I chat about the Enneagram being an internal GPS that can help you know your heart condition at any given moment. We chat about using the Enneagram to help you see, believe, and walk in the freedom Christ has already given you. 4:26 Beth begin sharing her faith journey and how that intersects with becoming an Enneagram coach. "A lot of times if we are a believer, we have a lot of mixed theology in our mind. Whether it is the flesh, or bad theology just being spoken to us or who knows what. And we just really want them to understand who are you in Christ, because we are already are free in him, but so often we don't feel free....What we are doing with Enneagram coaching is really trying to give them the best theological base for who they are in Christ according to their personality type, because each of us have the core lies that are hard wired into us, from a flesh stand point...We hear the good news and we think this is amazing, but we still feel stuck. My goal is to say, 'Yeah, I can see that you feel stuck, but you're actually not, you're free.  Let me show you exactly how in Christ, for you and your personality type.' " 7:37 Beth begins explaining the Enneagram "Enneagram itself is just a neutral tool." Think of it as being an "internal GPS. It is going help you to know where your heart condition is in any given moment." Your Enneagram Coach Mission: For people to see themselves with astonishing clarity, so they can break free from self-condemnation, fear and shame by knowing and experiencing the unconditional love, forgiveness and freedom in Christ. 11:27 "The Enneagram...is really going to help you to know, am I aligned with the gospel? Is my heart mis-aligned or out of alignment?" 13:00 "The Enneagram is trying to assess why you do what you do.... [it] is getting to the core." "When you are trying to find your main type, we want you to find the 4 core motivations in your personality type." Core Motivations Core Fear: something you are always running away from Core Desire: if I just had that life would be grand and perfect Core Weakness: that thing you cry out to the Lord to be delivered from; constant struggle (shows us we are always dependent upon Jesus)  Core Longing: the message your heart has always longed to hear (only Christ can fulfill this. no one else is sufficient, although we try to get it from other people.) 16:00 Beth shares a few stories of her Enneagram coaching that have helped to bring freedom. "The whole way through I am coaching you into seeing how Christ has set you free and His love for you, so that when that self-condemnation pops up and shame I am right there to say, "[No way]. Nope. Let's look at exactly who you are and what He has done for you.' And all of a sudden, over those 5 sessions, you can see this person really coming to life. " 19:28 Beth discusses Enneagram wings 9 basic Enneagram types Wings: 2 numbers on either side of your main type For visual of star click HERE You can access attributes of your wings in both healthy and unhealthy ways. "We aren't just one dimensional...We are very fluid, as people. God created us with lots of dynamics." In addition, every number has two lines (like a star would) coming from it. One line leads to an enneagram number that you take on when under stress, the second line leads to an enneagram number that you take on when growing. 24:22  "I am trying to help people realize what you long for is already there. Christ has already accomplished it for you, but our mind and our heart get derailed so quickly with false messages, lies, the world. etc. I am trying to help people to realize here's how your personality, when it is not doing well, thinks, this is how it operates, but when you are doing well, when it's aligned with the gospel this is where it is going to take you." 25:43 Beth speaks to the idea that personality types "put you in a box." Russ Hudson and Don Richard Risso: The Enneagram doesn't put you in a box it gets you out of the box you are already in. "Our personality when it is not healthy is hard wired to think in very specific ways, that's the box, but we're already free....The personality itself is not bad or wrong. It's beautiful. God created us with our personality, but when we're not thinking in a healthy correct way it's going to be really harmful and destructive to us." "No one likes their type, because it is going to reveal what you are like when you aren't doing well. Here is the good news, Christ knew not only all you know about your personality type, but He knows when it is even worse and that's why in Romans 5:8 it says, 'While we were still sinners, Christ came for us.'..." "All 9 types are the body of Christ. We need all 9 types."

Husumer Rabbit breed They were created in Germany from Dutch Rabbits by H.Zeumer. It is a white rabbit with blue eyes and is also known as the ‘Patterned Rabbit with blue eyes’. It was considered extinct but has now resurfaced and there are rare species around today. It was also know as the "patterned rabbit with blue eyes", because it existed long ago, and had a butterfly pattern. Mr. Zeumer, who was also a well know judge, had to give up his rabbits and experiments on the outbreak of the great war. http://www.onlinerabbitcare.com/rabbit-breeds/#Husumer Now I know that most gardeners dread having a rabbit in the garden. Rabbits are know to mow down veggies, burrow holes and generally not a friend to our gardens. BUT they can be. NO, I am not suggesting that you allow some bunnies to run willy nilly through your garden….but rabbit poop fertilizer should. Anyone who comes to the rabbitry and my homestead will see our gardens. I have been asked many times what is your secret. You have to use miracle grow they say. I just chuckle, thinking they just opened up a can of worms, and worms love rabbit manure! Now I get to discuss all about rabbits and there purpose on the homestead, the conversation will start about the many benefits and uses of rabbit manure. I am determined to spread the word of raising rabbits, and all the many benefits that go with it . Rabbit poop fertilizer can truly change a garden; and if you have rabbits you have an endless supply of droppings at your disposal. Why not make that waste into something you can use for an amazing garden? Rabbit manure can also be found in prepackaged bags or obtained from rabbit farmers. There are two schools of thought on applying rabbit manure to the garden. Some gardeners are cautious about potential pathogens and prefer to toss them onto the compost pile as a precaution. For some, adding poop to your veggie garden sounds (on some level) suspect. I'll be honest, I haven't heard of there ever being a problem - but it's worth mentioning especially if you're adding them to a vegetable garden. Then there are those gardeners that apply the rabbit pellets directly to the garden without a second thought. This is one of my practices; but I'm daring like that. Rabbit manure is one of the best manures for your organic gardens! It will increase poor soil by improving soil structure and also improving the life cycle of the beneficial microorganisms in the soil. Rabbits are very good at producing an excellent source of manure. It is rich in many nutrients and very simple to use. One doe and her offspring will produce over one ton of manure in a year. Give Transplants a Boost When you are digging a new hole for a transplant to your garden, add a little rabbit poop into the whole before putting the plant in. This give the roots and instant fertilizer to tap into. Rabbit manure is packed with nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and many minerals, lots of micro-nutrients, plus many other beneficial trace elements such as calcium, magnesium, boron, zinc, manganese, sulfur, copper, and cobalt just to name a few. Rabbit manure has four times more nutrients than cow or horse manure and is twice as rich as chicken manure. Cow, horse and chicken manure are considered “hot” and need to be composted (well-rotted) to use as fertilizers. N – P – K VALUES – Rabbit= N- 2.4 P- 1.4 K- .60, Chicken=N- 1.1 P-.80 K- .50, Sheep=N- .70 P- .30 K-.60, Horse=N- .70 P-.30 K- .60, Steer=N- .70 P-.30 K-.40, Dairy Cow=N- .25 P-.15 K-.25 As you can see by the nutrient values of farm manures and how they measure up and rabbit manure really shines! Rabbit manure also doesn’t smell as strong as other manures making it easy to use. Nitrogen(N)- Rabbit manure is higher in nitrogen than sheep, goat, pig, chicken, cow or horse manure. Plants need nitrogen to produce a lush green growth. Nitrogen helps plants grow greener and stronger helping the plant reach its full potential. This is great for all those quick growing salad greens! Great for the early growth of tomatoes, corn, and many other vegetables. Phosphorus(P)- Rabbit manure is also higher in phosphorus than the other manures. It helps with the transformation of solar energy to chemical energy. Which in turn helps with proper plant growth. Phosphorus also helps plants to withstand stress. Phosphorus in the soil encourages more and bigger blossoms helping with flowering and fruiting also great for root growth. Potassium(K)- Potassium helps with fruit quality and reduction of disease plants will not grow without it. Plants use potassium as an enzyme to produce proteins and sugars.They also uses potassium to control water content. More than just the awsome NPK values of rabbit manure it is loaded with a host of micro-nutrients as well as organic matter that improves soil structure, drainage, and moisture retention. Vegetable gardens, pastures, and flower gardens all will benefit from using rabbit manure. It helps retain soil moisture and soil structure. Rabbit manure is one of the few fertilizers that will not burn your plants when added directly to the garden and can be safely used on food plants. Use it fresh, straight from under the hutch. It does not burn plants. Use the pellets to topdress your lawn, mulch roses, vegetables, flower beds and ornamental plantings, or supercharge your compost pile and create an earthworm heaven. Grab a handful from under the hutch and use it as is, or work it into the topsoil. Rabbit manure at first glance many seem to be less powerful than commercial fertilizers but in reality they are better and healthier for your garden providing food and nourishment for your plants as well as earthworms and other beneficial animals and microorganisms in your soil. So why use chemical additives that are know to kill all soil life. Some manures have to be aged so they do not harm your garden, Bunny Berries can be used fresh as is. This is also a very organic way to add nutrients back to you soil. HOW TO USE- Use It As Is – “Bunny Berries” – Because rabbit manure is dry,odorless,and in pellet form makes it suitable for direct use in the garden. It can be applied any time of the year and helps give your plants a boost during the growing season or as a storehouse of nutrients when applied in the late fall and winter. Because it is considered a cold manure there is no threat of burning plants and roots. So use it as a top- dressing, mulch around plants, bury in the ground under transplants or just working it into the soil right from the rabbit. This is the easiest way to use your Super fertilizer! Grab a handful and add it to your garden today. The Berries are a time release capsule of goodness for your soil. This is the way i use it the most in my gardens, so the next time you find yourself knee deep in rabbit poop just add it to your garden! Compost It – Composting rabbit manure is an easy process and the end result will be ideal fertilizer for gardens plants and crops. Simply add to your compost bin or pile and add in equal amounts of dry straw or shaving to the manure. you can also mix in your usally composted materials grass clippings, leaves ,kitchen scraps. Mix with a pitchfork and keep the pile moist not saturated you may have to cover it with a tarp. It will take any were from a few months to a year depending on how often you turn it. I have heard some of my composting friends complaining that their compost pile will not heat up. The poop/urine/shaving mix is the best compost activator i have seen. Add it, turn it, and it will heat up! If you can get your hands on even a small bucket of this mix every now and then you and your compost pile will be in nitrogen heaven as far as composting rabbit manure goes rabbit manure is nitrogen on steroids it will get your pile hot and breaking down at accelerated rates. If you can get your hands on even a small pail of rabbit poop every once in a while, you'll be in nitrogen heaven as far as composting goes. Bunny gold is nitrogen on steroids; it really gets a pile going. If you have rabbits, you'll never be at a loss for a green (nitrogen) source for your compost pile. Manure Tea – “Bunny Brew” – Rabbit manure tea is the colored water that manure has been steeped in and is full of nutrients making a concentrated liquid organic garden fertilizer! The nutrients from the manure dissolve easily into the water were it can be added to sprayers or watering cans. To make the tea, put a heaping shovel full of rabbit manure in a burlap bag or porous cloth with the four corners tied together. Put the bag in a 5 gallon bucket and fill with water. Allow it to seep in the warm sunshine for a week. Remove the bag and suspend it above the bucket until it stops dripping. You can speed up the process by putting manure directly into the bucket with the water and let it sit for 3 days, stirring daily. Then put some burlap over the top of another empty bucket (making a strainer) and pour thru the cloth to strain out the solids. Suspend the solids in the makeshift strainer above the bucket until it stops dripping. In both processes the solids will not have released all their nutrients to the tea, and they will still be a beneficial soil amendment (put into the garden or compost pile). Rabbit poop compost tea is another fantastic option for that super rabbit poop fertilizer. To make it you’ll want to soak 2 cups of rabbit droppings in a 5 gallon bucket full of water. Keep that tea covered and only uncover once a day for stirring. Make sure you keep your brew as far away from the house as possible because the flies love this stuff! It will take about 3 – 5 days for the poo to completely breakdown, settling at the bottom (it won’t dissolve completely). But keep the brewing tea in a warm, sunny, spot for best results. If you have many plants, you may want to use a big barrel by using the ratio of 1 part manure to 5 parts water. To use the Tea, dilute it until it is about the color of kitchen tea, which should be about one cup of the concentrated manure tea to a gallon of water. Use it to dip every new plant before you transplant them. Dip only the root ball, until bubbles stop coming to the surface (also do this to trees and shrubs before transplanting). Also wet furrows before planting, and fill holes with it before you plant trees or shrubs. Wait until it is all absorbed into the soil allowing all the nutrients to permeate the nearby soil of the plant you are planting. Making and using manure tea is a great way to give your garden crops the extra boost they need for optimal health and growth. Give once a week as a fertilizer and throw out your miracle grow! Experience will tell how often to use and how much. Now that you know how to make bunny brew, you can use it all the time to give your plants that extra boost! Growing worms- Although fresh rabbit manure is considered one of the best organic garden fertilizers it is also the best worm feed and bedding. You can grow and raise worms directly in the rabbit droppings under cages, or hutches, or making boxes and adding the manure to those. Rabbit manure along with wasted feed makes some of the best worm feed there is. When properly cared for red worms eliminate unsightly manure piles, odor and fly problems. The best worm to use is the red worm or red wiggler(Eisenia fetida). You should have about 200 to 400 worms per square foot of surface area. To start off add bedding material to the bed. Bedding could be any combination of carbon material-shredded paper,decomposing leaves, hay, straw, peat moss, ect. Remember that worms cannot eat dry rabbit manure so maintain moisture level so the bedding is damp. Worms do not like salt and rabbit urine contains salt so you must remember to remove wet urine spots regularly adding them to the compost or directly to the garden. Keep adding a thin layer of your carbon material of choice to cover the surface of the bedding and loosen the bedding occasionally with a fork do not use a shovel(worms do not like being cut in half).The rabbits and worms will do the rest. You can remove and harvest worms and replace bedding every 3 to 4 months, if the worms are doing their job. The Benefits Of Raising Worms With Rabbits For Sustainability will be a good one! If you have an outside worm or vermicompost bin you can add your rabbit poop into worm farms; red wigglers especially love rabbit poo. You’ll want to combine the droppings with materials like straw, newspaper and coconut coir. Making Methane- This is something you can experimenting with a 55 and 30 gallon barrel the 30 gallon nesting inside the 55 gallon barrel with a slurry of rabbit manure, shavings and urine mix being anaerobic composted to make methane. https://riseandshinerabbitry.com/2012/03/31/the-benefits-and-uses-of-rabbit-manure/ http://msue.anr.msu.edu/news/bunny_honey_using_rabbit_manure_as_a_fertilizer https://www.imperfectlyhappy.com/rabbit-poop-fertilizer/ http://www.vegetablegardener.com/item/8156/rabbit-manure-in-the-garden https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/composting/manures/rabbit-manure-compost.htm Traditional tale tells how buzzards got 'scraggly' http://www.tahlequahdailypress.com/community/arts-entertainment/traditional-tale-tells-how-buzzards-got-scraggly/article_6ea2f035-1aa7-5258-8a43-6f6abf112048.html Local residents gathered around to listen to old tribal tales Wednesday, as Janelle Adair from Cherokee Nation Cultural Tourism recounted some of her favorite stories during Stories on the Square in Tahlequah. Adair likes to call her tales "creation stories," because they tell how something came to be the way it is. One creature that's easily noticed for being different is the buzzard. But according to Adair, it wasn't always as "scraggly-looking" as it appears today. "The old people will tell you that before the humans were here, the animals were here. Well, there was this one bird, named Suli," Adair said. "And he didn't look the way he does today. A long time ago, that buzzard was beautiful. He had jet-black feathers all over his body. On the top of his head, he had this long, beautiful plume of black feathers and he knew he was so good-looking." Just like how humans have responsibilities today, a "beautiful buzzard" like Suli had his own duties to perform. The job for large birds like the raven, crow, eagle and buzzard was to eat dead animals. "Now they would eat dead things, because even back then, if something died, you can't just leave it out there, because it gets all stinky," Adair said. "So they had to go out and eat it. That buzzard, though, he was so good-looking that he felt like that was such a nasty job, he shouldn't have to do it." Adair added that humans don't really like to clean up after other people. "Those other birds don't like it, either," she said. So one day, all of the other birds were up in their tree, with nothing nice to say about their fellow bird, Suli. They talked about how lazy he was and how he was never around when there was work to be done. "Underneath that tree was our trickster, Jistu the rabbit," Adair said. "Now the rabbit, he's not mean-hearted, but he often times gets himself into trouble. That rabbit tries to set things into balance, and when he sees something that he doesn't like, he'll just fix it, not even thinking about the consequences." After listening to all of the birds complain about how lazy Suli was, Jistu decided that he agreed with them, and that something should be done to put the buzzard back in his place. The rabbit then hatched a plan, but couldn't pull it off without the help of another animal: a bison. After thinking about it all day, the bison reluctantly agreed to help Jistu with his plan. "The next day, the sun is coming up and it's a hot, hot day," Adair said. "All the birds are sitting up in their tree and they're all hanging out. Surprisingly, Suli is up there with them. All of a sudden, they see that bison come up over the hill and he's walking really slow." Up in their tree, the birds didn't even notice the bison walking toward him, until he began acting strangely. "All of a sudden, he almost falls down, kicking up a bunch of dust in the air," said Adair. "He catches himself, though, and he starts walking slower and slower. As [the birds] are looking at him, he's swaying back and forth and lets out this deep bellow that vibrates across the area." In that moment, the bison fell to the ground, dead. "Now all of the birds start talking to each other, 'Oh my gosh, I can't believe I just saw that,'" Adair said. "'That bison died. I just talked to him yesterday.'" After some discussion among the birds in their tree, the eagle -- who was the leader -- told Suli not to go anywhere, because of all the work that had to be done. "That buzzard knows that talk about him," said Adair. "And he knows it's true, because he knows he doesn't work. He doesn't like to. But, he also knows that if helps them today with that big bison, they'll get off his back." Suli ended up making a deal with the other birds. In return for staying and eating the bison, he got the first bite. Suli was excited about the bison, because he knew it was fresh meat. 'While all of this is happening, that bison isn't really dead," said Adair. "This bison is just playing dead and he can hear them talking about who's going to eat him first. Well, that bison can't stand it anymore. He lifts his huge head up, opens his mouth and slams it down on whatever he can get ahold of." What the bison managed to grab ahold of was Suli's head. After dragging around the buzzard by its head for a few minutes, Suli finally freed himself. After examining himself for a brief moment, he realized that every feather on the top of his head had been ripped off by the bison. "Just 10 minutes ago, he was probably the most beautiful animal he had ever seen," Adair said. "Now look at him. To this day, when you see that buzzard, he doesn't hang around with those other birds anymore. It's pretty much just him and the other buzzards. And also to this day, that buzzard will never eat fresh meat, because he remembers what that bison did to him." Adair said that today, humans have acquired some of the traits of animals, including the buzzard. "We have people that act like that buzzard, but we also have people that act like that rabbit," she said. "So you better be careful, because you might come across a rabbit and they'll put you right back in your place."     © Copyrighted

In this first series (of 5), I'll take you step-by-step through exactly what you need to do to create an "invisible" upsell funnel that helps you increase your back-end sales without pissing off your customers.In this first edition we'll focus on using surveys and buyers autoresponder sequences.   Transcript: Hey, this is Jeremy Reeves, from the Sales Funnel Mastery podcast and I want to welcome you back to another episode of the Sales Funnel Mastery podcast. This is actually going to part 1 of a series of 5 podcast right in a row. What we’re going to talk about is how to add upsells and how to add cross-sells and essentially how to increase your lifetime customer value and average order size and things like that, without pissing off your customers. Okay, so a lot of people that I’ve been talking to, having the typically upsell funnel, where you buy the first product and you went to a 'Thanks for your order. Here’s the second thing to buy.' A lot of people don’t even say, 'Thanks for your order.' They just send them to a page. And it really does nothing to confirm that they just got the first product. It does nothing to reassure them that they’ve just made a good decision, nothing like that. It’s so sales-y. They click the 'buy now' button and boom, they get another offer, okay? And I don’t really love to do stuff like that. It’s kind of just disingenuous. It takes people out of the flow that they’re in, out of the buying frenzy that they’re in and is a little bit too much. It’s a little bit too pushy for a lot of markets. Okay, so what we’re going to talk about in this series, again, it’s going to be a 5-part series, is how to add upsell without pissing off your customers. Because even though the typical upsell funnel works really, really well, everything has to be worded properly and if you’re not comfortable doing that or if you have a market that just doesn’t respond well to that, because some don’t, actually. Typically, in older audiences, sometimes they just don’t respond that well. You have to think of different ways that you can still get those same offers in front of your audience, okay? But without doing it in a way that seems sales-y, sleazy, that kind of thing. The first thing that we’re going to talk about, part number 1 of this, is doing it through surveys or buyers auto-responder sequence. The reason that this works so well is because what you’re doing is just bought product number 1, the original offer that you have. You’re taking them and segmenting your list, depending on what they want, specifically. Not only that, the big kind of ‘aha!' for all this, is that they’re actually telling you what they want, okay? You’re not segmenting them based on a click or something, which is awesome. Segmenting, based on what they’re clicking on or pages they visit, is great. I always recommend that to clients in both prospect and buyer auto-responder sequences. But in this case, it’s the difference between making a call to a client and having that client call you. Jay Abraham talks about doing that in a certain way of doing it that we’re actually going to talk about in part 2 or 3. I can’t remember off the top of my head. But having people call you versus them can increase the results you get by making outbound phone calls. I think it’s by about 3-5x. I’ve never actually personally tested that. I just know that its better getting people to call you but anyway. The point of this is when you get people to actually self-select. They’re telling you what to sell them. Your conversion rates can go way, way up because they’re already engaged. They’re telling you. It’s a completely different mindset, alright? So what you want to do to do is, you know the typical person has the upsell funnel. They have the, they buy the original product, they go to an upsell funnel page and again, maybe you have a little box that says, 'Thank you for your purchase.' You have a little thing confirming that they just bought the original product. Instead of doing that, instead of the typical upsell funnel, what you do is send them straight to a thank you page. I know this flies against everything you’ve heard about before and it’s something to test in your market, okay? This isn’t some kind of gospel that it’s going to work in every industry. Test it in your market versus a typical upsell funnel and see which one works better for you. What you do is on the thank you page, you have at the top 'Thank you for your purchase;' and then you have a video under that. The first thing you do is confirm what they just bought. 'Thanks for buying product X. You’ve just made a great decision.' You reaffirm the buying decision. 'We’ve already received X number of testimonials. Everybody says that it’s the best product that they’ve ever bought in this industry.' You go through all the different reasons that they just made a great purchase. And then what you do is say, 'While you’re here, I would really appreciate it if you could fill out this really short survey. We’re constantly doing market research and helping you to better solve problem X,' whatever that X is, whatever problem you’re solving with your product or service. Tell them that you’re going to use their results to help them, give them the better solutions, faster results, better results, that kind of thing, okay? And what you say is, 'We have a gift for filling out this survey.' You could even say it’s a surprise gift. 'We have a surprise gift. I’m not going to tell you what it is now. The survey is only going to take you 10 seconds to fill out anyway, so there’s really no point in not doing it.' Then you have the survey underneath that video. Then what you do, you get something like survey funnel. Survey funnel is a WordPress plugin, or what you do is have your developer custom code something where depending on what button they click, they go to a different upsell page. So for example, if you’re selling weight loss and you say, 'What are you most interested in: A strength training manual, a weight loss manual or a guide to the proper supplements.' You have three different options that you’re giving to people. And depending on what they click on, you send them to that upsell page. If you think about it, this really is kind of like a pre-sell page for your upsell. So instead of going, first order, immediate upsell number 1. You’d go first order, and then you could think of it as a survey customization page and then upsell number 1. So that’s how you do it with a survey. Another thing that you can do is do this through email. So if you just want to send them right to the 'thank you' page, which gives them access to the product and that kind of thing. What you can do is in the first email that you send them, and hopefully, you have a buyers auto-responder sequence in place, if you don’t, you need to get one in place now, what you do is in the first email, again, you say, 'Thank you. Here’s your link to go download your product;' or 'Here’s your link, we’ll be sending you,' if it’s a physical product, 'We’ll be shipping it out within 24 hours;' whatever your kind of confirmation email is. There’s too many examples to get into right now. What you do is just have them, 'Hey, just so we know, so we’re sending you the right emails, what are you most interested in? A, B, or C?' Whatever they click, you could think of that email as your survey; whatever link they click. If they click on supplements, well, boom, they go to a supplement upsell page. Again, that says, 'Thank you for letting us know what you’re choosing. I saw that you clicked that you’d like some more information on supplements. I don’t know if you already knew this, but we already have a guide to picking supplements for weight loss,' whatever the case maybe. That’s pretty much with surveys. Another thing that you want to do with surveys, actually, depending on, if you’re doing this manually, like a one-time promotion or if you’re doing an evergreen sequence, like an automated sequence. One thing you can do is share the result of surveys. You could even have this second video, so if people don’t buy the upsell after they click on the survey link, then you can actually send them to a second video. That says 'Hey, just in case you’re curious about the results of this survey, go here and you can see what you and what your fellow student or whatever you call your tribe, what you thought, what you’re most interested in, click here’. Then you can have another video that shows you the results and goes right back into that upsell number 1 video. So that’s it. That’s part number 1, how to add upsells without pissing off your customers. And again, it’s essentially either using surveys or buyers auto-responder sequence to send them to a customized upsell page. I hope that helps you.
