    The Secret to Profiting From Content With Luis & Luis of BIZBROS - (Episode 125)

    Play Episode Listen Later Apr 6, 2022 53:54


    We're switching things up on this episode of Today's Business Leaders with TWO guests for the first time ever. We are meeting with both of the Luis brothers–yes real brothers! Their brand story began long before most of ours- as they weren't even out of diapers when this business partnership sparked. It may have been long ago, but one thing about Luis & Luis remained true throughout, their passion and drive to build something big. When completing college, trying to start their own vinyl sticker and t-shirt business didn't lead them to the success they were after, they began saying yes to any and all opportunities out there that they thought might be their next ticket to creating a successful business. As we always say at BME, we can't expect exceptional creative output to happen without some extent of creative input.This notion rang true for the brothers as they saw an advertisement from a reputable brand, who's known for its controversial marketing tactics. This marketer gave them a true direction for where they wanted to take their entrepreneurial efforts– the digital marketing world. That may seem ambiguous to us, but to Luis & Luis, this was the start of something great. Many entrepreneurs are unsure of what they're even doing when they start out–we just know that we want to do something great. Developing their skills to navigate the online world and social media, and saying yes to every opportunity that comes to light. They gave every opportunity their best shot but had trouble with the systems and processes in doing so, successfully. Trial and error and gaining experience as fast as possible is something that takes many entrepreneurs to the next level of success. Trying, failing and learning from that failure becomes an asset to the mosaic of experience of becoming an entrepreneur. Starting your own business comes with a lot of similar challenges, or at least similar patterns of choices us entrepreneurs make. Challenges and cycles of success seem to be familiar to the BIZBROS. This process was no stranger to Luis & Luis, once again. It became apparent that the statistic that most businesses only last about five years throughout their challenges during the pandemic. But knowing what they know now, they reflect on things they wished they'd have done differently. Pulling on team members and focusing on strategy and backside logistics as their lessons from these cycles and failures has resurrected their business to the success it has today. Continue to reflect on what's working and what's not in bringing that revenue. Even looking at vanity or business metrics can give you both the boost to beat imposter syndrome; however, it can also be misleading to how successful it really is. You may only get 100 views on your show, but it could still very well be bringing in revenue that you don't see on the surface. The BIZBROSCO ends on how their focus on content has driven bountiful success in their business. They say focusing on providing content marketing to the digital world relies on relationships. Products, processes and personalities are what they look for in their own business and with the clients that they help. Putting in the time and effort, resilience to failures, learning from those failures, showing up for your business and surrounding yourself with a great support team are their ultimate tips for success.

    We are here with Today's Business Leaders, Gabe Arnold and Adrianne Meldrum, to discuss how we can make a difference with our children's education and life by multi-sensory learning of math. – Where the kids will actually enjoy it! Could you imagine…enjoy math? Think of the possibilities that will open for them! Coming from a line of visionaries like her father, Adrianne wasn't sure of following her own into the business world. This uncertainty continued even after she made efforts to promote her business ideas about this new way of teaching math to children.  Their dear friend, Alex Charfen, has inspired Adrianne's enthusiasm for becoming the entrepreneur she was meant to be, to bring the world a new and improved way of educating our children on mathematics — the universal language! Gabe shares his comparable story of hitting a turning point in his entrepreneurship after hearing Alex speak at one of his seminars and truly adopting his ideals moving forward. For both Adrianne and Gabe, these experiences have left them accepting of their own missions and companies as a part of their identities, of their existence in order to have become so successful.  Adrianne went into more detail about her mission to bring sensory learning to mathematics to schools all over the world. It is an approach that can be adopted no matter what institution or level you are at, what recourses one uses, etc. It has been shown over many studies that we as humans use all of the senses in our bodies when we learn something. Think about all of the times you remember sounds or smells or feelings that you have had when recollecting a memory — the same goes for learning and recalling math too, or any subject for that matter. She went into some specifics that could help you and your family understand and learn in a way that works better for you as an individual.

Siavash opens up for BME and tells the tales of his nearly unspeakable upbringing. Fashi talks about being a small child underestimated by his peers at the time, which seemed like the least of his worries growing up in a warzone. Being the only one in his home in Iran to attend university, Saiavash talks about having to hide his religion and beliefs to ensure his attendance would be permitted, knowing this would be the only way for him to make something of himself for his family. Finding inspiration in Arnold Schwarzenegger and bodybuilding gave Siavash something to work towards. Although he had to sneak around to attain this goal, he managed to do so with very few resources. Bodybuilding kept him centered during his time of travel, helping him overcome the racism and identity crises that he and his friends were going through during their emigration.As if his troubles weren't enough, Fashi briefly opens up about being diagnosed with cancer and the struggles that come with it. He also discusses being wrongfully imprisoned and left with little hope of freedom. He has managed to turn every adversity into an advantage.

    TBL Episode #122: Jacob Blanchard

    Play Episode Listen Later Dec 22, 2021 41:05


    Today's guest, Jacob Blanchard, is an entrepreneur, a consultant and a problem solver.The first major problem Jake solved was earning a scholarship so he could stay in college. He earned the scholarship through the business school, so he switched his major from English to supply chain management, which he hoped to use working in international logistics. As a senior, Jake completed an unpaid internship at a hospital. He was dedicated to getting a job, so he continued to show up every day as if he were an employee. The hospital, impressed with both his commitment and his stellar work performance, decided to offer him paid work. The only funds they had available were from their discretionary consultancy budget, so they hired him as an independent consultant whose job was “Problem Solver.” This eclectic role allowed him to touch many aspects of the business, providing valuable experience that allowed Jake to start his own consulting firm, Delta Perspective. A mentor of Jake's later helped him frame and distill this experience into actionable advice: If you are in a commoditized environment, then seek specialty in that environment. If you are in a specialized environment, then commoditize your specialization. His education was a commodity, and the consulting work at the hospital was a specialty, which he was later able to commoditize via his own firm. Now, after 15 years of working for himself and as a lead consultant for another firm, he has the confidence and expertise to sell exceptional consulting services to a variety of clients over and over. Establishing Entrepreneurial IntentionJake believes that changing his mindset three years ago allowed his business to take off. Previously, he had the mindset of an employee: he would land a client and think of them as his care-taker, rather than focusing on growth for his firm through business development and marketing. Employees punch the clock for pay, while entrepreneurs have growth-oriented mindsets, so Jake changed his intention to grow and scale his business. Entrepreneurs must enjoy the journey, having fun with what they do, or they'll end up “punching the clock.” Those who fall into this trap grow to resent their own business, as many employees begrudge their employers. In 2019, when Jake changed his mindset in this way, his firm took off. Obsessed with Over-ProcessingFrom Jake's perspective, project managers tend to over-process because they fear stepping into the role of strategic advisor. Jake sees project management as the tactical execution of strategic projects and program management as the strategic mission of an organization. Companies struggle to bridge the two, which means they tend to get caught up in a cycle where projects are executed without intentional analysis of how they fit into the long-term strategic plan.As a consultant, Jake holds a mirror to a company. He doesn't tell them what they don't know. Instead, he listens, re-organize, and re-prioritize what he's heard. Jake asks the right questions, which are often tough ones, and his years of experience allow him to design strategic missions to implement. His goal is to hire himself out of the role so the company can continue to grow after the contract completes. Looking ForwardJake loves the problem-solving work of a consultant, but he also wants his firm to continue to scale and grow. These two desires are often in conflict with one another, so Jake hopes to feel content stepping back from the day-to-day work and step up to a growth-seeking role, where he can learn to solve problems through other people rather than solving them himself. His other goals include earning his black belt in Jiu-Jitsu and continuing to host his podcast, Jake Blanchard Podcast.

She began working in education as a teacher but grew bored with the routine after several years. From there, she earned a master’s degree and began working on the administrative side of education. She quickly discovered that bureaucracy and politics were not her cup of tea, leaving her wondering what to do next. She still wanted to work with people and help them learn, but education wasn’t the right field in which to do so. She began working as a trainer and consultant and hasn’t looked back. Instead, she has moved forward.Meredith and her long-time business partners Dennis E. Coates and Paula Schlauch have been working together for 30 years to help individuals develop the skills they need to achieve higher performance levels.   The Relational Side of BusinessBusiness transactions come and go, but relationships last. Making sure those relationships are positive and productive is one of the best things you can do for yourself and your business. While it can be challenging to change your communication habits, Meredith has some advice to help you get started.First and foremost, strive to be an active and empathetic listener. If listening isn’t a skill you are used to practicing, it can be difficult to begin doing so. The results are well worth it as you learn to set your ego aside and really hear what the people you interact with are saying.The other crucial communication habit to develop is a willingness to apologize. As much as we might like to be, none of us are perfect, and we will make mistakes. That’s okay. Mistakes are part of learning, but they can hurt other people. When that happens, a sincere apology can go a long way toward repairing damaged relationships. Apologizing is particularly important for leaders. When you apologize, you set an example for your employees and everyone else in your life. You’re creating an environment in which people feel comfortable communicating openly and honestly about their mistakes and feelings, which is invaluable for growing and succeeding, both as a team and a company as a whole. If you’re interested in learning more, you can connect with Meredith via LinkedIn or check out the Performance Support Systems, Inc. website. The website contains tons of great resources, including links to books by Meredith and Dennis and Meredith’s “Strong for Performance” podcast.

    Today’s guest, Shannon Graham, realized he was an entrepreneur since his early teens. When he was in school, he would take the one-cent CDs from the Columbia House catalog and upsell them to his friends and classmates to make a profit. This was his very first taste of being a business owner, and he knew it was for him.Graham began his coaching career in his early 20s while working a full-time job. It did not take long for him to start making more income from his coaching business than his full-time career. By that point, he quit his nine to five to work full time for himself and has never looked back. He now works with ultra-high net worth individuals who have gone through the ultimate failure (losing their purpose and not achieving their fulfillment) through his million-dollar program — Second Summit. His goal is to bring together the 98 percent and the 2 percent to create a better world and bring civilization to Tier One — a civilization that can utilize all the natural energy resources on a planet. But before that can happen, he helps individuals realize their full potential. Can money buy happiness? Contrary to the popular belief that money cannot buy happiness, Graham explains that it 100 percent can. “Happiness is not a core state of being.” Just like sadness, it comes and goes. People confuse happiness and fulfillment. They believe that to truly be content with their lives, they have to be happy. However, as human beings, you cannot be happy all day every day. How can you reach fulfillment?The one thing in life that everyone is trying to achieve (even if they do not know it) is fulfillment. Fulfillment is how we feel about ourselves. Many people think that money can make you feel fulfilled. However, you can be poor and still feel fulfilled, and you can be wealthy and never feel fulfilled. While making money is a science, fulfillment is an art. There is “no clear blueprint” on how you can get it and where you can find it. An issue that Graham comes across from these ultra net worth individuals is that while they were making a way to earn money, they sacrificed their fulfillment. This sacrifice then drags them down. But Graham is here to help turn things around. If you like what Shannon Graham is all about or what he teaches, then check out his website for more information.

    Ensuring a good experience for everyone involved in a partnership is an underrated aspect of business relationships, but it’s one of the most essential for long-term success. Maximum Response Marketing’s Kevin Thompson is here with us today to explain how he creates and keeps connections.Kevin’s Path to ProfitKevin has known that he wanted to be an entrepreneur since he was a member of the Future Business Leaders of America while in high school, but getting there took time and a lot of hard work. After four years in the army and seven as a commercial fisherman, Kevin finally had the funds to start his own cleaning and restoration business in 1997. His first year in business was miserable. He worked 12 to 14 hour days without generating a profiting or attracting the customers he wanted to work for. All of that changed when he came across an advertisement for Joe Polish’s marketing materials in a trade magazine. Becoming familiar with Joe’s work and then Joe himself changed everything for Kevin. He went from scrubbing engine grease out of apartment carpets for next to nothing, to working in upscale homes and making the kind of money he imagined when he first went into business. Making ConnectionsWith so much money on the line and a high risk of failure, business relationships are often fraught. It can be challenging to build lasting connections founded on trust. Despite this, Kevin has succeeded so thoroughly that he has earned the nickname Kevin the Connector. What’s Kevin’s Secret to Success?It’s not complicated. Go back to the basics when it comes to relationships. Before anything else, treat others the way you want to be treated. What’s true and effective on the playgrounds of elementary schools everywhere remains so in multi-million dollar partnerships.You want your partners to walk away from a venture having been wowed and wanting to recommend working with you to their entire network. That way, their network becomes yours. One chance connection blossoms into many. The process continues as your business grows. Kevin is no stranger to hard work. Since 2007, he has been part of 452 joint venture projects across a range of industries. By doing so, he and his partners have earned more than $16 million. If that sounds like a connection you want to make, you can contact Kevin via email at kevin@maximum-response.com or find him on LinkedIn.

    When a prospect tells you, “I have a marketing problem”, the real problem typically lies in his or her relationships. How can you solve your prospects’ problems without communicating with them? Today’s guest, George Bryant has relationship building at the top of his priority list. From Paper Routes to Digital MarketingGeorge, like many serial entrepreneurs, started his journey at a young age. Having a tumultuous childhood, he knew that to get what he wanted, he had to go out and get it himself. At nine years old, he had three paper routes to earn money. By 13, he had a job at an ice-skating rink. He didn’t realize until much later that he’d been an entrepreneur his whole life. After 12 years in the Marine Corps, George was struggling with what to do. He was working on becoming healthy again after years of injuries and eating issues. To hold himself accountable, he began posting recipes and blogs online. While growing his own business, he started working as a digital marketing consultant on the side, which was the most important decision of his professional life. George now works as a digital marketing expert (among many other things) and prioritizes relationships over all else. In his eyes, relationships beat algorithms. He’s helped countless business owners increase their revenue by showing them the true value of self-awareness and sympathy for buyers. Priority Number OneGeorge says that every entrepreneur must make self-awareness, exploration and integrity their number one priorities. Having a good relationship with yourself and knowing your faults is the best way to set yourself up for success. Remember that words can only go so far, but the feelings behind the words travel even further. Many entrepreneurs forget to humanize their work. The algorithm isn’t buying your product, a real person is. Take time to nurture those relationships, even if the person doesn’t say yes. People are much more likely to refer your brand to others if you treat them well, respond to their comments or send them a gift.Another piece of advice from George is to surround yourself with the right people. Have people around you who tell you the truth and push you to be better. It makes all the difference. Do you need help building your entrepreneurial relationships? George is the person to help you.

    Being an entrepreneur means learning how to show up effectively for your audience. However, what if your current tactics aren’t working? Are you often asking yourself: "Why don’t they get it?” “Why is my business stagnating?” “How do I effectively communicate my intentions?” Today’s guest, Nic Peterson may have the answer you’re looking for. Nic has been an entrepreneur for most of his adult life. He is the co-founder and director of strategic development at Mastery Mode, a business consulting firm dedicated to helping small businesses grow. His entrepreneurial journey began at the ripe old age of 21 when he opened a small gym. Building a NetworkFor four years, Nic basically lived at his gym, doing everything he could to make it successful. While he mostly catered to the Ironman and bodybuilding crowd, he noticed that some of his clients were affluent and successful. Then, the lightbulb switched on. He needed to know how to get more of these successful people in his gym. He started building his network by talking to successful clients and encouraging them to bring their friends to the gym. He was eventually able to raise membership prices by creating an exclusive environment for wealthy, successful people. The business grew and grew, and Nic gained valuable business knowledge. The craziest thing was, he did all of this without any marketing or advertising. From there, his success grew exponentially. Clarity, Certainty and Collapsing TimeThere are a lot of business consulting firms out there. What makes Nic’s methods different from the rest? It all comes down to his core marketing principles: Clarity, Certainty and Collapsing Time. Nic realized that every prospect is essentially asking a version of the question “Am I going to be okay?” whether that means money, weight loss, business success or personal growth. To answer that question, you need clarity, certainty and collapsing time. Think about using Google Maps to get somewhere. The clarity is that you’re at the right starting point and you’ve programmed in the right destination. The certainty is that Google Maps will get you to your destination. Collapsed time is how fast you drive to get there. The same formula works for any goal you’re trying to achieve. Effective CommunicationYour clients all have problems they’re trying to solve: “Am I going to be okay?” Once you have certainty, you can provide clarity for how you can solve their problem. Once they realize that you have a solution, collapsed time is your money maker. “When can I start?” or “How long will it take?” Nic’s advice to budding entrepreneurs is this: Focus on communication. Talk to people as much as possible. If you find yourself asking: “Why don’t they get it?” it’s time to work on your communication skills to deliver the best results.

    What’s the best way to build your audience? Are you using the right platforms to get your message across? Digital marketing and audience building expert Gary Henderson has spent years developing new ways for businesses to grow their audience. Gary is the founder of Digitalmarketing.org, a full-service digital marketing agency with a focus on relationship building and consulting. He is also the host of the “All the Way Up” podcast. The R3 Mat MethodGary’s approach to audience building is different from traditional methods. His ideology is that most businesses aren’t attracting the right audience for their content. Using his R3 Mat method, Gary shows business owners from different industries how to get the most out of their time. The R3 Mat method consists of getting the right message to the right people at the right time. Everything you do to get your message out there should have a purpose. Even if you have tens of thousands of followers on social media, how many of those people are actually going to buy your product or sign up for your service?Gary says it’s all about warming up your audience. Once you get your message out, you can start to see who your audience is. Ideally, by the time you launch a product or introduce a new service, customers will be ready to purchase. How to Build the Right AudienceAs most business owners know, audience building can be an overwhelming task. Gary’s advice is to take a deep dive into how you’re connecting with your audience. How are your posts performing? How many people are attending your webinar? Is all this work actually generating results? If not, it might be time to shift gears. In Gary’s case, he got tired of posting on Facebook every day and trying to come up with witty captions for Instagram posts. Then, he found Clubhouse, a new social media platform that is solely audio-based. Users can join different chat rooms based on different subjects or speakers. For Gary, it has become a new way to talk and interact with people, things that he’s good at. Since joining Clubhouse, he’s made thousands of connections in a very short time. The bottom line for building an audience is to always keep your end goal in mind when finding the right platform for your business. Encourage collaboration and open communication. Content is shared at an exponential rate, so don’t be afraid to keep things open. You never know what connections you’ll make. Find Gary on Clubhouse, as well as Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn.

    So, you’ve got a great idea for a business. How are you going to get the business started? What do you need to get the ball rolling? Today’s guest, Norty Cohen, has years of experience in bringing ideas to life, however, it isn’t as easy as you think. On today’s show, Norty uses his entrepreneurial insight to explain the essential things every budding entrepreneur needs to know when developing new business ideas. Norty is a self-taught entrepreneur and has been in business for over 20 years. His marketing agency, Moosylvania, has been helping businesses expand their outreach and build their brand communities. Moosylvania goes beyond traditional branding and media to help turn your one-time buyers into lifelong customers and fans. What Every Entrepreneur Needs to Have for Starting a New BusinessThrough his time in the marketing industry, Norty has seen countless ideas come and go and has developed guidelines for businesses to be prepared for developing their ideas. The first thing every entrepreneur needs to know is that an idea only goes so far if you don’t know how to put it in motion. The path to getting started may take longer than you think. Your next step is figuring out your role within the business. Are you just going to be the CEO or are you going to be involved in the day-to-day? Depending on your answer, you need to have the right people in place to work for you. Norty explains three must-haves for anyone starting a business:Surrounding yourself with good people.Having a product or service that is actually needed or desired. The ability to start the business with as little money as possible. When figuring out these three essential components, it’s vital to know what resources you have available to you. Figure out ways to spend as little money as possible by using what you have. Norty calls this the MacGyver approach. When you have an established idea and are building your framework, the next step is to research your competitors. See what’s out there, study the market and use your connections to obtain information. Once you have more knowledge of how your product fits into the market, it’s time to test it out with consumers. Try to focus on consumers who aren’t your friends and family. While their opinions are valid, you’ll get a more honest response from a stranger. A key piece of advice Norty gives to any entrepreneur is to run their idea through the Pro-forma calculator. Type in your costs, prices and profit margins to see the true value of your idea. Adjust accordingly, rinse and repeat. Ideas are Always ValuedThe bottom line from Norty is that it’s okay to have multiple ideas floating around in your head on a daily basis. Keep track of them, write them down and always be on the lookout for ways to implement them. You never know what idea will become the next big thing. The crucial thing to remember is that an idea is just the starting point to something bigger. Are you ready to get your idea rolling?

Today’s guest, Tina Forsyth says the first step to becoming a great leader is to be a great self-leader. How am I Getting in the Way?Tina is a coach, author, educator and entrepreneur. Through her longtime experience as an online business manager, Tina has shifted her focus to helping business owners answer a difficult question, “how am I getting in the way?”Tina asked herself this question in 2009. She had been running a successful business on her own for 10 years and things were growing rapidly. She was adding more people to her team and having an identity crisis. For so long, she ran everything on her own that she struggled to redefine her role as a CEO. While struggling to figure out what her role was, she realized that she was getting in the way of her business’ growth. Tina refers to herself as a recovering control freak. In the early days of her business, she was so caught up in operations, marketing, getting clients, etc. that she didn’t know what to do with herself when her team was handling everything for her. To avoid self-sabotage, she had to shift her mindset into a leadership role. Becoming an OBM Industry LeaderTina began her journey in the Online Business Manager (OBM) industry in 2000, working in the backend for Coachville. After a few years, she started her own business as an OBM and started working on gaining clients. Along the way, she noticed that more people were calling themselves OBMs but not actually doing the work. With so many years of experience under her belt, she decided to write a book, “Becoming an Online Business Manager” in 2008. From there, her business grew and allowed her to work with business owners from all walks of life. What does an OBM do? In Tina’s words, an OBM is someone who values the vision of your business, pays attention to your goals and knows how to get the job done right. She says so many business owners can’t get anything done because they get caught up in day-to-day operations. That’s where a good OBM steps in and organizes everything for you.

    Entrepreneurship and personal development go hand in hand. As you age and grow, your perception of the world changes, along with how you see opportunities. As the business world changes, so does your perspective. CEO and author Vinnie Fisher shares how he took his problem-solving skills and channeled them into the digital business world. Vinnie knew he was a problem solver at a young age. After his brother broke his arm, Vinnie took over his paper route and almost tripled his tips. While his brother was annoyed, Vinnie realized that he could apply his problem-solving skills to other things too. Early on in his entrepreneurial journey, Vinnie was relying on the latest trends to see where he could plant himself. Following niche markets, he found holes and gaps where he could fit in and solve issues. While he was good at it, Vinnie realized that he was not seeing the value of the work, and was only focused on cash flow. Vinnie realized that in order to succeed in business, you have to see the value in the concept. Do I like what I’m doing? Do I believe in this business? Or am I just focused on my paycheck? Vinnie and Gabe share stories of how many entrepreneurs fall into that trap and end up becoming miserable. If you do not add value to the equation, you are going about business in a negative light. Going along with value is ethics. Vinnie emphasizes the importance of getting in touch with how you feel about different aspects of business. You have to ask yourself, do I believe in what I’m selling? Do I feel good talking about my business? Vinnie and Gabe also discuss the lack of soul and spirituality in business today. Without soul, a business may seem sterile and disconnected from its audience. Not only does soul and spirit add emotion to business, but also humility. While running a health supplement company, Vinnie realized there was an accounting problem. Money was pouring in but profit was low. Where was all the money going? He put his problem-solving skills to work and figured out the issue — profit margins. While he fixed his company’s problem, Vinnie realized he could take his skills even further. Vinnie started his current business, Fully Accountable, as a way to help digital businesses have full financial intelligence. Fully Accountable is an outsourced accounting firm that takes care of all back-office accounting.

Joshua grew up as an only child, so establishing relationships with people was an essential skill he wanted to learn. He knew he wanted to be an entrepreneur from a young age. From selling candy out of his locker to making money playing cards in summer school, Joshua always had the entrepreneurial spirit. While in college at UTA, he obtained his real estate broker license and dropped out of school. This was during the early 2000s when the housing market was still a free-for-all for mortgage loans. He soon moved to California to start his first business while also getting into the online world. He began doing online monetization for companies like Myspace before things like SEO and PPC were common marketing terms. Between starting new businesses and working in online monetization, Joshua was overworked and stressed. He isolated himself in his office and spent many sleepless nights trying to connect with clients to make money. He wanted more out of life and was tired of working in such a “sales-pitchy” environment. After a messy divorce, Joshua reset his life. He closed his companies and moved back home at 36, with almost no money to his name. He wanted to start over, try something new and be more present for his children. He founded his current company, Stand Out Authority as a way to navigate the digital marketing world in a more meaningful way. Taking advantage of LinkedIn, Stand Out Authority helps its clients grow their businesses and build meaningful relationships with their potential clients, unlike traditional advertising and PPC marketing techniques. This allows entrepreneurs to choose who they work with, helps build their reputation and connects them with more people. Joshua and Gabe discuss how saturated the online world is and how content is no longer king. In fact, many users would rather have less information to look at. Seeing this pattern, Joshua uses Stand Out Authority to use different marketing strategies that focus on relationships over money. Money is a by-product of building relationships. The better the connection you have with a client, the more likely they are to work with you. Are you ready to grow your business and establish meaningful relationships?

    Based on the Law of Attraction, all thoughts turn into things eventually. The energy we put into the universe manifests itself into our reality. While the methods of Law of Attraction have been around for a long time, they are difficult to apply to everyday life. Author and entrepreneur Andrew Kap found a new way to apply the Law of Attraction methodology in a practical way — a way that is accessible to anyone. Andrew found the path to entrepreneurship shortly after graduating from college. Like most college graduates, Andrew was expected to find a job that would be loyal to him for 30-40 years, just like his parents and relatives did before him. He soon realized that way of thinking was outdated and he would rather be loyal to himself than a company. Within ten years of graduating from college, Andrew looked to entrepreneurship, starting his own business. Andrew was always interested in Law of Attraction. He began applying the methods in 2004 intermittently and applied them more seriously after the 2008 housing market crash. After losing his first business, Andrew dove deeper into Law of Attraction, got in better physical shape and started to re-group his business strategies. Throughout his time utilizing Law of Attraction, Andrew realized that all the books he had read focused heavily on theory and ideology, rather than the practical application of the principles. The basic idea of Law of Attraction is that the energy you put into the universe becomes your reality. Putting positive energy out results in positive things happening to you, very similar to the idea of karma. For most people, this is easier said than done. Last year, Andrew decided to write a book about the practical application of Law of Attraction. “The Last Law of Attraction Book You’ll Ever Need to Read” describes how Andrew was able to stick to practicing Law of Attraction principles via a variety of different methods. Andrew compares using the Law of Attraction to lifting weights to build muscle. Consistency is key if you want results. Podcast host Gabe Arnold describes the book as a “field guide for Law of Attraction” as it allows you to get out of your own ways and try it out. Andrew’s book is now an Amazon #1 bestseller, with hundreds of 5-star reviews and raving comments from readers. Andrew’s book is available in paperback and Kindle through Amazon, Barnes and Noble and more. Learn more about Andrew’s book or check out his YouTube channel and Instagram page.

    Are you a gym owner struggling to grow your membership base? How do you take advantage of the technology around you to grow your fitness business? Entrepreneur, coach and fitness expert Will Hurst has the tools you need to succeed and grow your business. Like many successful entrepreneurs, Will had the entrepreneurial spirit at a young age. Coming from humble beginnings, Will was not interested in school and thought that college was not an option due to financial stress. In high school, he started selling baseball cards to make extra cash, which sparked his passion for sales and business. After high school, he moved out west and got into automotive sales, where he learned a lot about sales techniques and customer service. While working as a car salesman, he also started selling items on Amazon and eBay, which was a very niche market at the time. After some time passed, he decided to take the skills he learned to start his own business. He lived in Phoenix and noticed a growing market for artificial grass, so that became his main selling point for the company. Will’s landscape company grew rapidly due to his use of Google ad campaigning, which was almost unheard of at the time. The company grew to the point where he was able to buy a large warehouse space off the California coast to store his product. During this time, Will started doing CrossFit and wanted to utilize more of his warehouse space. However, the success of the landscape company began to decline as time went on, and Will wanted to do something different. With the help of a friend who was a CrossFit instructor, Will started a CrossFit gym which quickly grew to include over 200 members. As his landscape company ended, Will decided to move back to Arizona and start another CrossFit gym. His new gym was not as successful at first, leading him to re-think his sales tactics and get back into running Google ads and researching sales funnels. Slowly but surely, his gym grew to include over 400 members. Because of his success, other gym owners started asking him for advice, leading to the creation of Big Little Gyms. With Big Little Gyms, Will coaches fellow gym owners on ways they can grow their businesses, overcome obstacles and improve their overall techniques. Since the company’s inception in 2016, Will has helped many gym owners reach their goals through mentorship, training and software. He continues to help his clients succeed and is working tirelessly to provide them with the right tools and resources to grow their gyms and membership base. Want to work with Will?
