5-10 New Clients And $10k To $25k+ In Sales In 48 Hours Or Less

In 2026 many coaches and experts have a product or program that could transform lives, but they’re stuck trying to build an audience first. They’re posting endless content, hoping someone will notice, and watching their brilliant work sit on the shelf.

Our partners skip the audience-building grind entirely and launch to immediate revenue.

we’re using simple 3-Question Polls and fun Community Auctions to bring in new high ticket clients and 5 and 6 figures in sales in 48 hours

Recent results include:

  • One partner did $174k on their first auction despite making a bunch of mistakes
  • Another brought in $130k in 3 hours before he stopped the auction early
  • A third generated $16k from a list of 60 people

Here’s why this works:

A 3-question poll identifies who’s ready to buy right now, even in a small list or community. Then we run a time-limited auction that converts buyers in 24-48 hours while you focus on serving clients.

No audience building. No content treadmill. No nurture sequences. Just buyers raising their hands and paying premium prices for what you’ve already created.

The best part? This makes you look like a hero to your audience because you’re finally giving them access to the transformation they’ve been waiting for.

This works whether you have 100 people on your list or 10,000. If you have a product that changes lives, we can monetise it this month.

Here’s a 10 minute video showing exactly how we are doing this.

As I said in the video, if we help you with your Community Auction, there are zero upfront fees or retainers. You only pay a percentage after the money hits your account.

I’ll ask you a couple of questions to make sure we’re a good fit and if we are, we can run your first campaign together in a couple of days with no setup fees, no retainer, just profit share after you get paid.

What Are Community Auctions?

If you’re tired of complicated funnels, sales calls, and webinars that don’t convert, there’s a simpler way. The 3-question poll and community auctions method is generating $10K to $25K or more in just 48 hours for coaches, consultants, and course creators – without any of the usual hassle.

Here’s exactly how it works.

Step 1: Post Your 3-Question Poll

Start by posting a simple poll in your community, Facebook group, or email list. The poll has three response options that measure how interested people are AND how close they are to buying.

Your poll should look something like this: “Want to [desired outcome]? Would you bid $1 on this?” Then give them three choices: “I’m totally in, no details needed” – “I might be in, but need more details” – “I’m out, no thanks.”

This isn’t just engagement. You’re identifying your hottest buyers before you ever make an offer. If 20% or more say “I’m totally in,” you’ve got a winner. If less than 10% are interested, pivot your offer to something else.

Step 2: DM the Hot Leads

Within 1-2 hours of your poll closing, message everyone who said “I’m totally in” or “I might be in.” Don’t wait – every day you delay cuts your sales in half.

Your DM should be simple: “Hey [Name], you said you’re interested in [outcome]. Were you just supporting me or were you serious about getting help with this?”

When they confirm they’re serious, either make them a direct offer or invite them to participate in your upcoming auction. The key is getting the truth on the table. Ask what’s really happening in their business right now. Get them to describe their pain point in detail.

Step 3: Run Your 24-Hour Auction

Post your auction with a clear offer, starting bid of $1, and a bonus ladder that unlocks as bidding increases. For example, when the bid reaches $5K a bonus unlocks, at $10K another bonus, and so on.

During the auction, you become the auctioneer. Respond to every comment. Celebrate each new bid publicly. Create friendly competition. Post updates every 1-2 hours showing the current bid and time remaining.

The final hour is critical – post every 15 minutes counting down. The energy and urgency you create will push bids higher. When it closes, announce the winner immediately and thank everyone who participated.

Step 4: Tap ALL the Bidders

Here’s where most people mess up – they take the winning bid and stop. Don’t do this. The real money is in the backend.

Within 2 hours of the auction closing, DM every single person who bid – even the $10 and $100 bidders. Offer them three tiers: Silver ($50-$500), Gold ($500-$2,000), and Diamond ($1,000-$5,000). Always include payment plans on anything over $500.

Your conversion rate on bidders can be 50-90% because these people already raised their hands multiple times. They told you they want what you’re offering. You’re just giving them options that fit their budget.

The Results

Following this exact process, people are consistently generating $5K to $15K from the direct sales after the Poll, and another $10K to $100K+ from auctions and backend offers. The best part? No sales calls required. Everything happens in simple DM conversations.

Your first attempt won’t be perfect, but you’ll learn more by doing one poll and one auction than reading about it for months. Start today. Post a poll. See what happens.

The system works. The question is: will you use it?

Community Auctions Vs Sales Funnels

Before Community Auctions,, the internet marketing playbook has always been the same: spend thousands on ads, build complicated funnels with with a bunch of pages, create upsells and down-sells, and hope you break even on the front end so you can make a decent profit on the backend.

It’s expensive, time-consuming, and honestly, it’s getting less effective every day. There’s a better way.

The Traditional Funnel Problem

Let’s be honest about what traditional marketing looks like. You’re spending $5 to $50 per click to get people into a funnel. Your landing page converts at maybe 30% if you’re a marketing genius. Your sales page converts at 2-3% if you can afford to spend thousands dialing it in.

You need a complex tech stack including landing page builders, email automation, payment processors, upsell software, shopping carts, and analytics tools. You’re managing pixel tracking, split testing, and constantly tweaking your copy. It can take weeks or months to set up and optimise.

But in 2026, it gets worse.

Most people have seen these funnels a thousand times. They know when they’re being manipulated through an upsell sequence. The moment they buy, they’re hit with “Wait! Before you go…” and another offer, then a down-sell, another upsell with order bump, followed by a continuity program they aren’t sure they’ll be able to cancel for good measure. It feels pushy and inauthentic.

Most people hate it. In fact many will refuse to even buy a front end product because they know they are going to be subjected to the “upsell-hell” experience if they do.

And the biggest problem? You have no idea if anyone actually wants what you’re selling until you’ve spent thousands on ads and built the entire funnel.

The Poll and Auction Advantage

Three-question polls flip this entire thing on its head. You post a simple poll in a Skool community, Facebook group, or to an email list asking if people would be interested in your offer. Within hours, you know exactly who your hot buyers are and how much they’re willing to pay.

No ad spend. No complicated funnel. Just a simple post or email that gets 3-4X more engagement than regular content.

Then if there is demand, you run a 24-hour auction where people publicly bid on your offer. This creates something traditional funnels can never replicate – social proof in real time. When people see others bidding $5K, $10K, even $20K on your offer, it validates the value instantly. The competition and urgency are authentic, not manufactured with real or fake countdown timers that reset when the time runs out.

The results speak for themselves. People are seeing 50-90% conversion rates on auction bidders. Compare that to the 2-5% you get on traditional sales pages. The difference is simple: auction bidders have already told you, often by bidding multiple times, they want what you’re offering.

Why Domino Offers Beat Upsell Sequences

Traditional upsells feel manipulative because they are. You’re trying to catch people in a moment of excitement and push them into buying more before they can think about it.

The three-tier Domino Offer is different. After the auction, you simply present three clear options to every bidder. For example, Silver, Gold, and Diamond, or maybe Chevy, Ferrari and Bugatti. They can see all three tiers at once and choose what makes sense for their budget and commitment level.

There’s no pressure, no countdown timers, no “this offer expires in 10 minutes” tactics. You’re not trying to manipulate their psychology. You’re just giving them clear choices and letting them self-select.

The beauty is in the simplicity. People appreciate being treated like adults who can make their own decisions. They don’t feel tricked or pushed. And because they’re choosing what feels right for them, buyer’s remorse is virtually eliminated.

The Bottom Line

Traditional funnels cost thousands in ads, require complex tech, and convert at 2-3%. Polls and auctions cost nothing, use simple platforms like Skool or Facebook, and convert at 50-90%.

One method treats marketing like a manipulation game. The other treats it like a conversation with interested buyers.

The choice is obvious.

How To Get Your Community Auction Started

Do you like the idea of running a Community Auction that brings in $10k to $25k or more while doing a huge service for your audience?

It DOES NOT matter where the audience is right now. They can be on YouTube, an Email list, LI, IG, Discord, X, Substack, Beehiiv, Pinterest, Rumble, Patreon, TikTok, or anywhere else.

We just announce and PRE-sell the Auction to them wherever they are and have interested people register for a Skool group where the Auction is held.

We use Skool because it allows us to DM every bidder individually and make them a customised offer based on the dollar amount they bid and what their “bleeding neck” Present Pain is.

Don’t have your own audience? No problem. Become an Auction Hero and run them for other people who DO and share in the profits.

In 2026 the World is ours.
