Working with entrepreneurs has shown me that we are the most consistent source of positive momentum for humanity. Here's what's going to happen in this crisis. Entrepreneurs are going to rise above the noise. We're going to identify the opportunities that are there, see a way to move things forward, grab hold of it, take it forward, get into momentum, and bring the world with us. The world needs us now more than it ever has. I want this episode of the Momentum Podcast to encourage you. Don't ever apologize for doing business, selling, or moving things forward as long as you are doing it in an ethical way, we need you to. Humanity is desperate for hope, and entrepreneurs will lead the way to a better future. The lives you change with your business today will begin the process of changing the world for the better. Let's make it happen. Resources Mentioned: predictablebusinesssolutions.com

In a crisis or any other time, efficiency is critical in business. One of the recurring issues we see in almost all businesses is that the core processes, the ones that create revenue for the business, are often undocumented and unclear. Having documented processes will separate your business from the crowd and make your business real. These define the foundation of what your business does and who your business is. One of the fastest way to get your business into momentum is to document your processes. Now is an opportune time to document your processes, clarify them, and make them as efficient as possible. With documentation, you can see a reduction in the time needed to complete a process by as much as 90%. I share this figure with people all the time, let me share with you a recent issue in our company and the 90% reduction that documenting process created.

As a leader of your business, you are the most important person on the team every day. When you take care of yourself first, you are able to take care of your team and move things forward. Today more than ever as leaders we need to be aware, present, and able to make the right decisions. The reality is that, as a leader in your business, your team will respond to the way you show up, now more than ever before. Being present and showing up in the right way will create confidence in your team during these challenging times. In this episode of the Momentum Podcast, I want to show you what it takes to create the systems in your life that will prevent crisis from doing damage to your business. It may sound cliché to "put your mask on first" but in a crisis like this one, it's not a cliché it's mandatory. When you are in leadership, the way you show up is going to determine how your team shows up, this is more important now than ever.

Crises create ambiguity. Ambiguity creates insecurity. Insecurity will rob your momentum. The first thing to do in a crisis is to eliminate ambiguity and understand your financial situation. It is a challenging place to go in challenging times, but understanding exactly what is happening for you and your business financially will provide invaluable perspective into how your business can start to recover and overcome the current market. Very few people go straight to the worst-case scenario in a crisis, because we are all trying to avoid it. Those who do and understand what could happen, have a basis for making better decisions. By eliminating ambiguity and understanding your financial position, you will create a foundation so you can make far better decisions. Resources Mentioned: PredictableBusinessSolutions.com

When someone says something like “all we need to do is think positive.” I will admit that I am immediately irritated. If all it took for people to move forward in the world was thinking positive, we would all think positive and everything will be resolved. Especially in a crisis situation, that's just not how it works. If you are trying to white knuckle or use will power to create positive thinking, it just won't work. The higher the pressure and noise, the more difficult it is to remain positive. In this episode of the Momentum Podcast, I will show you that the only way to make sure you remain positive and consistent is to create process in your life and in your business. Just thinking positively is not enough, process creates positive thinking. Implementing these simple processes into your life and into your business will radically change the way you are able to make it through this challenging time.

In this episode of the Momentum Podcast, I will show you exactly what you need in order to take an in-person team into a virtual space. I run a multi-million dollar virtual business and coach entrepreneurs around the world who do the same.

My wife, Cadey, and I have built businesses that have helped thousands of entrepreneurs navigate crisis situations. We helped thousands of entrepreneurs navigate a financial crisis that was brought on by the market, personal issues, and challenges in their business. There is a way to successfully navigate challenging times for entrepreneurs and the good news is that we can do it successfully every time. I've seen it, coached it, and implemented it myself in order to build successful businesses in the middle of challenging circumstances. In this episode, I want to help you understand that in the middle of a crisis, there is more opportunity. Multi-billion-dollar companies will be launched in this crisis. Opportunities come when markets are unstable and there's only one way for us as entrepreneurs to take advantage of them. We must adopt the right mindset. It's not what comes naturally, but it's what will actually get you through this and help you make a massive contribution. Resources Mentioned: PredictableBusinessSolutions.com

In the midst of a global crisis, entrepreneurs around the world are overwhelmed with decisions that must be made in order to survive. In 2007, I faced a very similar situation with the U.S. economic collapse that sent my wife and me spiraling into bankruptcy. That situation was one of the most humbling and devastating experiences I've ever gone through, but it taught me the importance of decision-making in crisis situations. Within a year, Cadey and I were liquid millionaires once more, and by 2011 we had built a company that was #21 on the Inc. 500 list of fastest-growing companies in the United States. In this episode of the Momentum Podcast, I want to share with you the exact process and framework we used in the midst of the financial crisis of 2007 to make decisions on a consistent and recurring basis. Not only did this framework save us and make us millions of dollars, but it is also still changing the lives of entrepreneurs all across the globe through our coaching programs. You can and will get through this, and when you can make the right decisions, you can continue to grow your business even when the world is in a panic.

Molly Keyser has been our client twice. Yes, you read that right: two times. She first came and had amazing results with my program, went on her own, and returned 6 months later willing to learn again, but this time with her business on a whole new level. I invited Molly as a guest on today's podcast because she has an incredible amount of experience on how to run a business—now in two different stages of growth. Molly is an off the charts creative that runs a one of a kind company, Boudie Shorts. She helps boudoir photographers build profitable businesses. Let's hear the massive results she has been having in her business and how our systems have helped her be more creative than she has been in a very long time.

On today's episode, I invited Jeremy Bergeron (the business strategist for our company) to discuss the biggest problem that he hears from the dozens of entrepreneurs he talks to every week. Jeremy points out how almost all entrepreneurs that he has worked with think they have a sales and marketing problem. But in reality, we have found some key components that are NOT sales and marketing, and that, when fixed, has transformed the hundreds of businesses we have helped in our consulting program. Jeremy has worked at Facebook and Google and has a ridiculous amount of understanding of business. Let's learn with Jeremy why sales and marketing is not your problem. Let us show you the experience we have taken in working with hundreds of entrepreneurs and guide you to the place where you should actually focus your attention.

In today's episode, I have the privilege of interviewing an entrepreneur who is a massive inspiration for me. Rachel Miller doesn't just run a multimillion-dollar business, work with some of the top names in the market today, and help thousands of entrepreneurs grow their businesses, but she's also a mom of six who runs a household at the same time she's running a business. In a world where many people create excuses, Rachel creates possibilities. On this podcast, we will share the ‘horrible story' of making more than half a million dollars in four days while feeling completely empty, how she runs her company now while taking care of six kids, and how she used our programs to grow into a life of freedom for her business and her family.

There's an epidemic today that I see over and over again. When I attend events, when I speak to groups of entrepreneurs, when I do Q&As, there's this epidemic of entrepreneurs creating a business, growing it, making a contribution and then, and when the business stumbles or doesn't grow like they want, here's what entrepreneurs do: We all blame ourselves. We ask the question, What's wrong with me? What do I need to improve about myself? What do I need to change about myself? How do I need to change my mindset? I want you to know I've been there. I've felt those feelings. And you are probably NOT the problem. On today's podcast, I will share how I transformed my business by focusing on some key elements that are usually THE REAL problem for entrepreneurs. These are some simple tactics that will help you grow personally, help you move forward with less pressure, and create predictability in your business.

One of the greatest lessons that I learned in leading and growing teams is that it's okay to be wrong. I spent the first large percentage of my career trying never to be wrong and never let them see me sweat. It was when I finally realized that accepting where I was wrong is what was necessary for my company to grow that my life and my business both turned around. On today's podcast, I will show you what happens on the highest level of business, how I almost got killed trying to prove that I was always right, and how my clients are getting massive results by learning to be vulnerable and letting their team challenge them

For some companies building a culture means parties, get-togethers for lunch, happy hours, and beer kegs with taps in their break room. For me, it means something completely different. So let me show a path that I have been using successfully and why I believe it's so important to build the right type of culture if you expect to get real results in your business. Your business's culture should be the glue that holds your company together. It should be the way that you bring in the right people, reject those that shouldn't work there, and create the outcomes you and your company are aiming at. On this podcast, I will give you my hard-fought secret on how to build it. Resources mentioned: PredictableBusinessSolutions.com

Being a solopreneur is a fantasy. This conversation happens so often in the entrepreneurial world. Entrepreneurs have the idea in their head that they don't need anybody else in order to grow their business to where they want to be. They think they can do it all themselves, and that a team would only slow them down. The problem with this line of thinking is that there is not a single entrepreneur in the history of the world who was able to build the business of their dreams without a team. If you make the decision to build a team, you will have the opportunity to change the world. The issue is that entrepreneurs often feel like a team will restrict them and take away their freedom. They became entrepreneurs to shake off the responsibilities of managing other people. The problem is that building a business on your own is one of the most damaging things you can do to your body, your mind, and your relationships. The commitment to build a team is what truly creates freedom. If you know you have the opportunity to make a bigger impact, grow a massive business, and change the world for the better, it is time to give up what is really holding you back: The Solopreneur Fantasy.

On a recent live training I held for entrepreneurs of every size business, I had the opportunity to speak directly to an issue in the business of a very special entrepreneur. We had an amazing conversation, and it started out--as it does for so many entrepreneurs who are running multimillion-dollar businesses--with her feeling like there was something wrong with her. She felt like she needed to shift her mindset or change her thinking around this issue. Something she was doing in front of her team that did not make her appear "as her full, authentic self." Once the conversation concluded, the concerns about her mindset, herself, and how she was showing up to her team significantly changed. I offered her an entirely different solution to her problem. If you're trying to grow and scale a business, mindset often has far less to do with the issues you're facing than is perceived in the market today. Instead, I could see that Lori was dealing with something that could only be adequately fixed by surrounding herself with a process that allowed her to show up in front of her team in a predictable, reliable, and stable way. This was not about her mindset, it was about the process.

In an entrepreneurial business, the most common issue I've encountered is that the entrepreneur in charge is buried by the responsibilities of running and growing that business on a day-to-day basis. More often than not, entrepreneurs say that they are drowning in things that need to get done. At the end of the day, they look at what they still have left to do and wonder how in the world they are going to get it done. It's as if the entire business is hitting a bottleneck and there is no end in sight. There is only one way to break that bottleneck and allow your business to grow faster than you ever thought possible. In this episode, I will expose the biggest bottleneck in your business and give you the tangible, tactical, and transformative steps you need to take in order to break that bottleneck and allow your business to grow exponentially. Your business has the potential to change the world, and the only way to see that potential become a reality is to implement a strategic plan. Let me show you exactly how to do it.

There are times in an entrepreneur's life when they can feel stuck, trapped, and suffocated by their business. In service-based industries, this reality can completely stifle growth and cause the entrepreneur to feel pain every time they think about their business. It can feel like there is no escaping the day-to-day issues of serving clients directly, but there is hope for every entrepreneur with a medical practice, law firm, or any other service business. In this episode, Dr. Stephanie Estima discusses the challenges of meeting those challenges head-on and how she overcame them. By implementing processes, systems, and structure into her business, Dr. Stephanie Estima has grown past the feeling of being stuck. She created a business that has allowed her to step out of the day-to-day operation of her company and put all of her focus on the strategic growth of the empire she is creating. She went from the brink of giving up on her chiropractic practice entirely to fulfilling her mission of changing the world through her business. The reality is that, for entrepreneurs, feeling stuck in our business can feel like drowning. By implementing processes and systems in your business, you can breach the surface of the water and radically change your business. Resources mentioned: PredictableBusinessSystems.com

For visionary entrepreneurs, one of the biggest fantasies out there is to hire one person who is going to do all the things in our business that we don't want to do, so we can stay in the visionary seat and grow our business without any frustration or pain. It feels like if we could only find the person that would take care of all of the details, we could stay in our zone of genius. The issue is, it takes a lot more than just a person; it takes an entire system to protect and support an entrepreneur. The expectation that a single person will come in and fix everything is unfair to them and unfair to you. The Traction EOS System revolves around the concept of an innovator who does everything in the business for the entrepreneur. And this podcast I discuss why this is not only unrealistic, it may cause you serious issues and get you stuck in a way no entrepreneur wants to be stuck.

Growing a business, building a team, and getting people to work together isn't easy. While these things are hard enough on their own, they are infinitely more difficult when you get thrown a curveball. In my experience, the biggest challenges and speed bumps come around the fourth quarter. In fact, the fourth quarter of every year is like a minefield for entrepreneurs. If you have a team and you don't anticipate or prepare for this time of year, you're going to start seeing behaviors on your team that don't really make sense. You will notice some team members missing things, breaking down, becoming more reactive, and withdrawing. This episode is all about understanding where these behaviors come from, and how you can not only survive, but stay in momentum during the fourth quarter with your team.

There are a lot of ways to create success in the world today, but there's one way that's often overlooked and undervalued - drinking water. You don't realize how much resistance and constraint you are experiencing from dehydration until you are hydrated. As I often say, water is a gateway drug to success. To show you just how life-changing being hydrated can be, I invited Dr. Nancy Miggins on the podcast. She's going to share insights with you on drinking water and how our free Natural Thirst Challenge completely transformed her life. Dr. Nancy Miggins started drinking more water, and it helped her to become who she really wanted to be. If you're considering taking the challenge, follow her advice - “Do it and don't wait.” Resources mentioned: Take The Natural Thirst Challenge - http://getthirstynow.com/.

There's a massive difference between what actually grows businesses and what most people sell and market to entrepreneurs. If you're lucky, over the top promotions may generate success for you in the short term, but it doesn't create sustainable growth. The fact is, consistency over time scales a business, and it's about the only thing that does. With so many entrepreneurs being misled and going in the wrong direction today, this is a topic I'm passionate about and felt compelled to deliver the truth on. Tune in to hear how you can become more consistent as a leader with your team, and in your business. Once you master this, everything will change, and you will start to scale at the rate you've always wanted. If you're ready to become more consistent so you can scale your business, reach out to us.

The podcast episode I did a few months ago with our client, Marley Baird, turned out to be the most sought after and high-performing episode we've had in the last six months. As promised, Marley came back on the show for part 2 of that episode to give us an update. We dive into what's happened in her business and with her team since we last spoke, and reveal if she ended up going bankrupt or if she made it through. Also, make sure to listen until the very end so you hear Marley's special announcement. I'll give you a hint, the opportunity she has coming up is something almost every entrepreneur dreams about.

In this episode, I'm going to share with you the strategies we teach entrepreneurs to achieve massive growth. Entrepreneurs from all over the world have applied our concepts and grown their business like crazy. Our systems work, and there's a reason. We show them exactly how to grow their business through our simple 5 step framework called The Charfen Process. This episode is a must-hear for CEOs. Because as a CEO, when you go through a process like this, you start to build more trust with your team. When they see you follow a process over and over again that get's a consistent result, you actually appear and become a better CEO. Our process has changed people's businesses, but what we're most proud of is this process changing people's lives. The people we have worked with have come back to us and said by using this consistent process, their personal lives have gotten better, their health has improved, and their relationships have improved. As the entrepreneur in charge, when you have a clear process that works over and over again, and you begin to trust it, it makes everything in your life easier.

As many of you know, I used to be a one on one consultant for over a decade. With that said, today's podcast topic is going to be one that will seem very surprising coming from me. I want to talk about why one on one coaching or consulting may not be your best option, and how it may end up hurting you rather than helping you. If you are currently working with someone one on one or plan to in the near future, listen to this episode first and then proceed with caution. In most cases, working one to one is not as beneficial as working with a consultant who has built out their systems with a team. One to one consultants usually have a lack of systems, documentation, and processes with no built out structure. Even though you feel like you're getting all of their attention and a personalized delivery, this isn't usually the case. What you are often getting is a much slower and tedious delivery, rather than one that's fast and all at once. One to one consulting seems like the easiest and most valuable choice, but it's the most dangerous way to move towards an outcome. If you want real results and fast, you need a consultant who has systems and a team. You will receive the outcome they have created with their team through processes, documentation, structure, and a platform you can rely on. Resource mentioned: http://predictablebusinesssystems.com/

Entrepreneurs are addicted to transformation. There's that burning desire in us to grow, evolve, do more, and achieve more. The problem is, our hope for change leads us to chase transformation rather than chasing an outcome. As entrepreneurs, we need to know where we are going. We need a plan in place with clear expectations. Otherwise, we are unconsciously consuming, and that becomes the activity we focus on. But when we chase outcomes rather than transformation, everything in our lives change. We get into momentum, and that's when we truly transform.

In this episode, we're going to discuss consulting malpractice and just how damaging it can be. But before we dive in further, I want to forewarn you that this topic is a massive trigger for me. Far too many consultants give bad advice, experiment on successful organizations, have absolutely no track record, and really no business consulting entrepreneurs in the first place. I share a story in this episode that, unfortunately, isn't uncommon. Consulting malpractice happens all the time, and it's up to you to protect your business against it. Before even considering getting help from a consultant, make sure the service they provide is actually something your company needs, they know what they are doing, and you check their track record. Even after going through those filters, make certain that you have the time, effort, and energy to commit to the outcome you are working towards. Listen in as I share with you how to defend your business, so you don't become a victim of consulting malpractice.

As promised in last week's episode, in this podcast, I want to discuss becoming a passenger in your business. When I was at Taki Moore's event this past week, I was in a room full of million-dollar+ coaches, and I shared with them the goal we have for our clients - to get them to passenger status. Since this group had a ton of questions and took such an interest in the topic, I knew it was time to revisit it on our podcast. Let's be real, visionary entrepreneurs are not great at running meetings and really shouldn't be the one conducting them to begin with. At one point in our business, we didn't have a choice but to run them and do everything ourselves. But once we get to the place where we have a team, and maybe you are there now, it's time to take a step back and become a passenger. My goal for you and any client we work with is to get out of the tactical seat and into the strategic one. Remember, the captain of the ship doesn't sit at the steering wheel...and as the CEO of your company, you shouldn't either. Once you get yourself into passenger status, everything becomes easier, and you will experience momentum like never before. Listen in as I share with you how to become a passenger in your business, so you can step into the strategic role you should be in. If you want help getting to passenger status fast, reach out to us at http://predictablebusinesssystems.com/.

I just wrapped up another event with Taki Moore in Southern California. I had the privilege to speak to his higher-level board room this week, and I want to share with you all the same message I shared with them - that trust creates scale. One of the fastest ways to grow your business is to build trust with your team, and in this episode, I share with you exactly how. When entrepreneurs get to the point in their business where the success they can create alone is no longer enough, that's when they need a team. Because with a team, we can create a bigger impact, more significant outcomes, and go out and make things really happen for our business. It's hard to do, but when we admit we need help, we can start building a team and trust with them to scale. Tune in as I share with you the three places you must focus on to create trust within your entire organization. Get ready to show up in a way that will establish not only trust but also massive growth in your business.

When we as entrepreneurs finally understand how we can create momentum, things shift in our lives for the better. In this episode, we're going to walk through an important exercise I call the Momentum Equation. I'm going to share with you the framework and questions that work universally to create success and identify clear patterns of growth. Simply by thinking of periods of momentum in your life and answering three questions, you can revisit the momentum in your past, apply those lessons in your life today, and get back into momentum to make things happen. If you're listening to this on the go, take mental notes. But by the end of the day, I ask that you sit down and write out the answers for this exercise. Because physically writing things out and visually seeing them is proven to be more effective. Tune in as I share with you an example of a period of momentum in my life, and reveal the framework for the Momentum Equation.

If you've built a team and you're starting to develop a leadership team, this podcast is one you need to hear. In this episode, I share with you the most productive way to run a business and things you should work towards if you want to create a culture of winning. My team and I have had what I'm about to share with you set in place for a while, but this past week we reiterated it...I'm not able to change things in the business, and there's a good reason why. I can't change my team's priorities, projects, deadlines, or outcome in any way - unless it's a real emergency. And for me to step in at an emergency level, things have to be pretty bad. If that happens, I regroup with my leadership team, and we will shift priorities. But otherwise, I'm hands-off, and that's the way it should be for a CEO. Because in most businesses, the team is fighting with the entrepreneur for their time and focus. The problem is, in entrepreneurial companies, the focus usually shifts so often that no one can keep track of where the business is going or what they should be doing. This leads to the two biggest complaints I hear - there's a lack of communication, and the team doesn't know what's going on. Tune in to hear why our business and the businesses we coach run differently than 99% of companies out there, and how yours can too. Resources mentioned: Billionairecode.com

My favorite podcasts to record are the ones where we feature our clients. Needless to say, today's episode is no exception. I'm so excited to share with you this podcast I recorded with Heather Wright and one of our Coaches, Deanna. A little background… Heather was the first member of our newest coaching program, Catalyst. In this episode, you will get the chance to meet her, hear about her business, and the progress she's made in just six weeks. Get ready, Heather has an incredibly funny personality and made this episode a ton of fun. Before joining our tribe, Heather really wanted to grow her business in a way that would provide passive income. She kept searching for that magic pill or solution that would get her results fast. After trying multiple “pills” and looking high and low for that quick fix, Heather came across our content. It was the opposite of everything she had ever heard, but it made her stop and think. Just maybe, our approach was exactly what she needed… Fast forward to 6 weeks later in the program - Heather has already had a massive breakthrough. She realized there isn't a quick solution, and that she needs to put the time, work, processes, and systems into her business to grow. She is now more organized, reduced her shiny object syndrome, has clear goals, and a crystal clear plan on where she should be spending her time on.

When I was a kid, my mom had this saying when something challenging happened - everything happens for a reason, let's find the reason. When I was younger, I fought it. But as an adult, this saying has proven true. Regardless of what's happened in my life, everything has happened for a reason. In this episode, I share with you a few examples of challenges I've faced and what reasons I've found for them. We talk about everything from my bankruptcy to a panic attack at an old job. I also share a recent story that brought me to tears talking about it again. No matter the size of the challenge, there's an underlying reason or lesson in there somewhere. Sometimes we know the reason right away, and sometimes we won't realize it until years later. But trust me, there's always one there. It's up to find the reason or accept that it's true. Tune in - this episode is a good one. If you're ready to grow your business and move forward quickly, reach out to us at https://billionairecode.com/apply-now.

You read the title right; I'm back. You've probably noticed that in the last five weeks, I haven't recorded a single podcast episode. If you don't follow me on social media or subscribe to our emails, you probably don't know this, but just recently I took over three weeks off from work. If you're wondering why here it is...I needed time and space to process after my mom, and good friend Sean Stephenson passed away. After a big realization, I stepped out of my business and took time off social media. In such a short few weeks, I learned a ton, and I'm finally ready to share my experience with you. Man, it feels so good to be back, but I have to admit it's been hard to pick up the mic and record. In this episode, I want to share with you why you haven't heard from me directly and what's been going on in my life. After the passing of my mom, I had two weeks of work scheduled that I had to push through. Shortly after, I noticed I was reacting and regressing in ways I haven't in a long time. Listen in as I get real and vulnerable with you on my experience with grief, loss, and what my time off taught me. I share this at the end of the episode, but I thought it was important to put in the show notes too...Every day we have an opportunity, and each day is a gift. Please never forget that.
