Blogger Tips Waitress with Personal Capitol Affiliate Link


ORLANDO – While attending FINCON 2018, “always on” blogger, entrepreneur, and speaker Brock Powers tipped the waitress at a swank Orlando restaurant with his Personal Capitol affiliate link.

“She was okay I guess, but she’s not making use of her whole talent stack”, commented Powers during the dinner. “See the way she carries that tray? It’s all wrong. She could walk faster if she positioned her hands differently. Being a good server is about aggregating marginal gains for maximum ROI.”

When it came time to leave a tip, Mr. Powers considered giving the waitress a lesson on the best real estate crowdfunding sites or her Pinterest monetization strategy.  He settled on giving her his Personal Capitol affiliate link to get her into what he called his “conversion funnel”.

“She’ll love this! Now she’ll be able to optimize her finances and see her net worth in real time”, beamed Powers.  “And I’ll float some coupon codes to her for my Facebook Ads course, to start her up the value-ladder.  This has been a positive-revenue dinner!””

    Bhahahah, nice!

  2. Brock Powers didn’t even realize that that waitress was already Barista FIRE and doing that job as a hobby. I saw her on the next FinCon session leading a panel discussion on the topic “Egotrage — How it can 10X your RE glide path”.

  3. sounds about accurate.

  4. I’ll start tipping people by mentioning to them that I’ll tag them in my instagram account, would that follow Brock Powers advice? LOL great satire
