Organization: Archive Team

History is littered with hundreds of conflicts over the future of a community, group, location or business that were "resolved" when one of the parties stepped ahead and destroyed what was there. With the original point of contention destroyed, the debates would fall to the wayside. Archive Team believes that by duplicated condemned data, the conversation and debate can continue, as well as the richness and insight gained by keeping the materials. Our projects have ranged in size from a single volunteer downloading the data to a small-but-critical site, to over 100 volunteers stepping forward to acquire terabytes of user-created data to save for future generations.

The main site for Archive Team is at archiveteam.org and contains up to the date information on various projects, manifestos, plans and walkthroughs.

This collection contains the output of many Archive Team projects, both ongoing and completed. Thanks to the generous providing of disk space by the Internet Archive, multi-terabyte datasets can be made available, as well as in use by the, providing a path back to lost websites and work.

The Archive Team Panic Downloads are full pulldowns of currently extant websites, meant to serve as emergency backups for needed sites that are in danger of closing, or which will be missed dearly if suddenly lost due to hard drive crashes or server failures.

How to tell if you’re ready to add a new offer

If I gave you 100 new clients tomorrow, could you handle them all at once?👇

Or would you have to turn 95 of them away since you’re stuck doing done-for-you services?

Do you think you’d even be able to talk to each person individually?

What would you tell them if they called you up for an enrollment call?

What types of services would you need to offer that are irresistible, and would give your client exactly what they want?

Do you know what kind of price you should ask for your product/service? And should you offer payment plans?

What deliverables would you provide these clients and what services?

Do you know what niche you would be working in?

I spent ten years providing done-for-you marketing services.

It is a great online business model to start with as it solves the immediate issue of cash flow.

And for some, cash flow is all you need.

But for others, they reach a point where they think they could be doing more.

They could be earning more.

They could be serving more people.

If only they could step away from the done-for-you model.

These are my people. Do any of these resonate?

You want to create a highly leveraged business model.

One where you don’t have to trade time for money.

One where you could help hundreds, if not thousands, of people a year.

You’re ready to add something new.

You’re a teacher. A helper. Someone who realizes it is far more effective to help someone learn something than to simply give them what they think they want.

And you’re excited about the volume of people you could help, if only you could untangle yourself from your service-based work.

Because you’re an expert.

You’ve consistently produced excellent work for your clients.

You get compliments and positive feedback every time you complete a project.

You have a folder full of testimonials and compliments proving that the market values your expertise.

You’re ready to become the leader you feel destined to be.

And while the idea of doing more, of stepping into a different role, of becoming more of what makes you you, excites you, there’s trepidation, too.

How will you make the transition?

What will people think?

Which niche should you choose?

How should you package your services?

How will you get clients with a new offer?

How will you carve out your space in what feels like an increasingly competitive market?

Good news, friend.

What you’re feeling is both normal and entirely untrue.

I mean, go look at that file full of people telling you how great you are, then come back.

The world needs more leaders.

And you’re one of them.

See, competition isn’t real.

There’s room for you in even the most crowded spaces online.

If I can carve out my living working in an industry where there are well-funded companies as my competitors, you can too.

But first, you need to take a step back.

Get quiet.

Brainstorm.

Dream big.

Then reach out.

I’ll be here when you’re ready.
