Last Saturday was a great day.
Why?
Because I got to meet several Furey Faithful who get these daily emails – and have benefited enormously from my products.
Here’s how I met them:
I was on the walkway to enter the auditorium at Brandon High School in Florida, for the state freestyle and Greco-Roman wrestling championships.
Running up to me from behind, a man with a British accent.
“Sir, may I ask your name,” he says.
“Matt,” I reply.
“Matt Furey?” he asks.
“Yes.”
“Oh, what an honor to meet you sir. I have your books and DVDs on Combat Conditioning. My two sons and I love them. We’re here to compete. They recognized you right away and I told them it couldn’t be you. So now I find out it is.”
“They were right” I said.
“My sons will be thrilled to know we met.”
“I’m happy to hear that,” I replied.
During the tournament a former college wrestler saw me and struck a conversation. “I’ve been trying to get hold of you for months with no luck. Any chance you’d be interested in setting up a club with me where you teach your system of Combat Conditioning.”
“We can discuss the idea,” I said.
A few minutes later another man approached with his girl friend.
“Are you Matt Furey,” he asked.
“I AM.”
“Dude, I just want to shake your hand and thank you. I won a world championship because of you.”
“Really, how so?”
“I studied your Farmer Burns DVDs on catch wrestling.”
“And what did you learn from them that you used.”
He stopped and showed me a double-wrist lock throw and a groffit he used as a throw.
I smiled and showed him a couple variations. His eyes popped wide. He then introduced me to some of his teammates who also have my products.
What a thrill.
I am thankful to these people for coming forward – and to YOU for being part of the revolution. Keep spreading the word.
