Okay, so do you stand out in your niche? I mean really, do your customers see you as the best choice? And how are you distinguishing yourself from everyone else who's looking to serve your customers? We're going to talk about that on today's Mindshare Mindcast with our guest, Scott McKain, a globally recognized authority on how organizations and professionals like you can create distinction to stand out, attract, and keep customers in this hypercompetitive marketplace. Scott's recent book, Iconic: How Organizations and Leaders Attain, Sustain, and Regain the Ultimate Level of Distinction, was recently named on Forbes as a top 10 best business book for 2018. Another one of Scott's books, Create Distinction: What to Do When Great Isn't Good Enough to Grow Your Business, was named by 30 major news organizations including the Miami Herald as one of the 10 best business books of the year. In fact, Scott is frequently quoted in USA Today, The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and the International Herald Tribune, to name a few. His commentaries were syndicated weekly for over a decade to 80 television stations in the US, Canada, and Australia. This guy has no free time, clearly. You'll love the interview with Scott. He's unique and his ability to captivate with his speaking style has earned invitations to present his unique gifts from celebrities like Arnold Schwarzenegger, who booked him for a presentation at the White House, which the President was in the audience, to even playing a villain in a Werner Herzog movie. We've got to talk about that. Roger Ebert actually considered it one of the 50 greatest movies in the history of cinema. Oh my God. Well, because of his success and helping some of the world's most distinctive brands - these are companies like Apple, SAP, Merrill Lynch, BMW, Cisco, Fidelity. You recognize the brands ... hundreds more. Scott was honored with the induction into the Sales and Marketing Hall of Fame alongside other fellow visionary leaders like Zig Ziglar, previous guest Seth Godin, and Dale Carnegie, and also into the Professional Speakers Hall of Fame.

Benjamin Franklin famously said “...but in this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes.” Sometimes, I wonder of those aren’t the same thing.  You know the feeling.  April 15th is coming up, and you feel that knot in your stomach as you worry about getting your taxes done right while stressing over how little of your money you actually kept. But, hey - if you’re an entreprenuer, it’s not as bad as it looks, right? You just work harder and make more. Have you ever said that? Be honest. What if there was a different way to look at your money - one that really helped you prioritize your use of cash in ways that resulted in keeping more - potentially way more - and stressing a whole lot less. While death is certain, taxes don’t need to be bad or scary, and when you get it dialed in - like the wealth people do and they hire experts to do - you can do substantially better, and ultimately, create wealth - way faster than most people can. I don’t know about you, but taxes have always stressed me out. And to be honest, I didn’t really enjoy dealing with the numbers. I’d much rather create things than deal with the money side. And my results showed that. Then one day I met today’s guest, who demystified taxes, financial planning and gave me hope that at then 54, I could still hit my financial goals. That’s the good news.  The bad news - once I learned the strategies he taught me, I realized that - had I met him 10 years prior, today, I’d likely have tripled my investment accounts by now.  Our guest today is Garret Gunderson.

We all have dreams for what we want to be when we grow up.  Some dreams come true but most do not. Let’s be honest.   Our guest today also had a dream. As a young boy, he loved football.  He was so committed to playing the sport professionally he publicly declared to family and friends his goal of dominating his position, and making it to the NFL, in spite of being smaller, slower, and less genetically gifted than most who played the game.   But dominate he did, overcoming incredible odds and numerous setbacks through perseverance, discipline and an unshakable belief that led Bo Eason to become a top draft pick in the NFL, playing for both the Houston Oilers and the San Francisco 49ers.  After becoming sidelined due to injury, Bo set his sights on another passion - theater and became an actor and playwright known for his critically acclaimed one-man play - Runt of the Litter -  which enjoyed an extended off-Broadway and 50-city national run. It is AMAZING. Today, as a speaker and leadership coach, Bo trains some of the most successful people in the world—athletes, artists, entrepreneurs, and executives - even Fortune 500 companies - to accomplish their big dreams and become the best they can be -  whatever they choose in life - in spite of their odds…

Let me ask you a question. Did you go in business because you needed a job, wanted better income, or because you wanted to create an asset - a business that, over time, could produce revenue from a source other than your direct labor? I’m pretty sure it’s not because you wanted to work longer hours for less pay taking on more stress and risk. But that’s what a lot of entrepreneurs do.  They trade more of their time for less money in the pursuit of a dream - they want to become a celebrity expert, become known and respected, but they don’t have a clear strategy to leverage their authority into an asset that has value beyond their direct labor. Today’s guest, Roland Frazier has helped business owners successfully make the shift from the lowest cost labor in their business to owners that exit their business successfully.  If you’re a personal brand and want to understand the art of positioning your role in the business for higher long-term value - this episode is for you. Roland is one of the wisest people I know - he’ll be hosting a workshop at this year’s mindshare summit.  For now, here’s a primer on brand positioning if you’re the personality of your business and one day want an exit.

Seems these days everyone’s looking for what’s missing. And I don’t know about you, but you could serve hundreds or even thousands of people in your business and still feel disconnected, lonely, even just get in a funk. And everyone’s noticing this stuff everywhere. It shows up in a lot of different ways, too. Addictions to social media or TV, drugs, alcohol, sex ... even work. Seems like everyone is starving, and no one’s getting what they really need.   Have you ever felt less than 100%? Maybe you thought you’re coming down with something. You’re overworked. You’re stressed out, just ready to retreat to the bedroom, pull the covers over your head, and sleep it off. But you couldn’t. You had to attend that family gathering or lead a workshop or attend a party you’re just not up for.   But once you got there, you felt a lot better. Well, that’s because you got your dose. And after recording this episode, I made a note to proactively seek my dose out.

Now, it’s absolutely true that you need to know what the outcomes are that you want in your life. You need to have real clarity about how you show up in the world. What is the activity you’re doing? What’s your life look like? But many times the vehicle that gets you there isn’t what you thought. In the case of Devan, who started his career as a professional athlete, he certainly didn’t think within three years that would close for him and he’d have to be open to new opportunities, but, like most of us, we find that there are opportunities that we have all the time to learn to pivot and to adapt and it’s all about showing up prepared. Listen to this episode with Devan Kline as you learn how he’s created one of the fastest growing franchises in history, and the fastest growing franchise in fitness, by being adaptable, by staying focused, by delivering value and being in tune with the needs of his customer and think about how that could apply to your business.

The Alter Ego Effect with Todd Herman

Nothing's more frustrating than ending your day and putting your head on a pillow and beating yourself up saying, “Why didn't I say that to that person?” or “Why didn't I raise my hand?” or “Why didn't I speak up?” or “Why didn't I take action?” “Why didn't I close that sale when that person expressed interest?” Nothing beats us ... that was the trapped self. There is something that you were concerned with on the field of play as opposed to, “I am confident. I'm articulate. I'm decisive,” which means that in those moments, you speak up. You say something. You declare "When I find someone who can absolutely benefit from what I have, I'm going to let them know that I can help them and bring value to whatever it is that they're to go after." That's being authentic whether you're leveraging a grizzly bear as your alter ego or Superman or Wonder Woman or JJ Virgin or insert any name. Any inspiration can come from any place, including your alter ego. This is the power of our creative imagination.

Tim Ryan is not your typical politician. He meditates, does yoga, eats organic and believes that what ails America starts at the kitchen table. When 75% of the cost of our healthcare system is largely preventable, if you want to get the pharmaceutical industry under control, you just need to get healthy. Tim believes that, at the end of the day, that is how you're going to make your real impact. You can complain and moan all you want, but if we get healthy, that will reduce the impact of the pharmaceutical industry.  But it will also have a profound change on behavior, healthcare costs, and the small farmers who were once the backbone of America.  Listen as Tim shares his plan to Heal America.

How many of us never really realize our true potential - because we fail to take the leap, and get out there with our message? Some call it fear of failure. For others - it’s imposter’s syndrome. So many people QUIT right before their break thru. How about you? Be honest. Do you feel Stuck? Like you're running up a greased chute, or stuck in quicksand in your business? You’re not alone, and - the good news is - the pivots you need are most likely way simpler then you think. You just need to see the problem for what it really is. The key is surrounding yourself with the right people, who are all aligned and focused on the right things.

The notion of value has always fascinated Karl, partly, because it’s so subjective. And I think it’s that subjectivity that make us many times under-value what we do for others. Because that’s the real measure of value. Have you saved someone time, money or improved their life with what you could do better than they could do on their own? Examples are all around - the car detailer that comes to your office or home that charges 3X more for the car wash you could get up the street if you went there, or for free if you did it yourself, but by allowing you to stay on higher value tasks - can actually make you money. Or the Hashimotos expert who can give you a clear plan of action that gets your health back and keeps it back after your primary care doctor visit covered by insurance has failed to provide any results. What would someone be willing to pay to get it right? Value is what your result is worth to someone. The key is finding the audience that needs what you can do for them, something this weeks guest has mastered - repeatedly, resulting in a trusted brand that consistently delivers unexpected value to his clients. You’re going to love this episode with Dr. Sachin Patel - as we talk big picture and some interesting details about delivering value that people feel good about paying for in the health space.
