On today’s episode of Just the Tips, we have a guest who has been a mentor to me, someone who has been very instrumental in changing my thinking in terms of not just marketing but entrepreneurship in general. Perry Marshall is an accomplished and sought-after business coach who has been featured in Forbes and Inc. He’s also the author of the essential Ultimate Guide to Google AdWords. But today we’re talking with him about the biggest impact he’s made on not just internet marketing, but even NASA: the 80/20 rule for productivity. This is a can’t-miss episode of Just the Tips. How Perry drank the Kool-Aid but didn’t drown in it Perry discovered his love of entrepreneurship not by becoming an entrepreneur, but by becoming an engineer. In high school he got really into repairing and installing stereos and car stereos, and so the entrepreneur side just became the way he could do the thing that he loved. From there he hopped on the Amway train, and as he says drank the Kool-Aid. It took him a while to resurface, but when he did, he realized he wanted to do something on his own. Of course, once he went off on his own he ended up becoming a massive success and a huge influence on countless entrepreneurs, but you’ll have to listen to this week’s Just the Tips to get the whole story. Getting in early on direct-response marketing online Perry got his first job in internet marketing in 1997, before the Internet really took off. But he was able to figure out something that nobody really had up until that point: Direct-response marketing online was not that different from direct-mail marketing and sales, which he had already done. And so he gets a job with this company and starts working on their website and starts generating a healthy number of leads, even at the dawn of the Internet age. And then one night, not too long after he was fired from another job, his boss came over to ask Perry how they could keep him at the company. So Perry figured out something early on, and then grew it from there. So on this week’s Just the Tips you’re getting the best advice from literally a primary source on online marketing. You better understand what you bring to the table as a salesperson Perry tells this great story on this week’s Just the Tips about how he walked into a meeting at his work, and introduced himself as an electrical engineer, and his boss corrected him and said, “No, Perry is in sales, but sometimes forgets what his job is.” And that interaction led to a light bulb going off in Perry’s head. If you don’t know what type of salesperson or marketer you are, then you are going to get shoehorned into a type of marketing by someone else. And that led Perry to create a “Marketing DNA” test, which helps salespeople understand who they are and what their unique selling proposition (UPS) is. 80/20 and gaining leverage Perry’s 80/20 rule says simply that 20% of what you do produces 80% of results (4x leverage), whereas 80% of what you do produces 20% (1/4x), and so the difference is enormous. As Perry says, 80/20 is a very counterintuitive process. What it teaches you is how to understand where you need to put in your effort, and when you need to quit something. Perry dishes all sorts of fascinating stories that illustrate the 80/20 rule on this week’s episode of Just the Tips, even (sssshh) when to fire your customers. Don’t miss it.

SHOW NOTES: The Adventures of Superman (1952-53) - Season 1, Episode 1 The Adventures of Superman (1955) - Season 3, Episode 11 George Reeves Superman Kirk Alyn Serial I Love Lucy That weird X-FIles episode John Byrnes Man of Steel Chuck Connors The Rifleman Sunshine Signal of Doom SYNOPSES: Written by Connor-El Superman on Earth On the distant green planet of Krypton, Jor-El reports to the science council in the temple of wisdom. After a series of freak tidal waves and other disasters Jor-El had been assigned to investigate what was causing these disasters. He reports that krypton is being slowly drawn into the sun due to its gravitational pull and Krypton's close proximity. It is now so close that krypton is doomed, the planet, Jor-El reports will burst like a bubble in what could be hours or months. He proposes a plan to build a fleet of ships for the Kryptonian race and go to earth, a planet with a similar atmosphere. He is called a madman and his warning is dismissed. Crestfallen he arrives home to his wife Lara, and son Kal. He decides to just send the three of them to earth, and as he is getting ready to launch the test rocket, Krypton's final moments come. As the Rocket only has room for one, Jor-El insists on sending Lara, but Lara says they should send Kal instead. Lara decides to stay with Jor-El to the end. They bid farewell to Kal and launch him in the test Rocket. As the rocket flies away, Krypton explodes. On April 10th, 1926 on a dirt road in Kansas, a kindly couple of farmers called Eben and Sarah kent are driving when they see a rocket fall into the bushes on the side of the road. Eben rushes over and grabs baby Kal-El just as the rocket explodes. They note that neither the baby or the blankets he came in were harmed by the fire at all. The Kents, knowing that the government wouldn't believe them if they told them what really happened, name him Clark. Over the years they notice Clark developing strange powers, and at the age of 12 an agitated Clark comes to Sarah and tells her he found a lost ball at school that day by seeing through a rock. He then asks why he's stronger and faster than all the other kids. It's at that point Sarah decides to tell them how they found him. On the 25th anniversary of the day they found Clark, a surprise party is planned. Before Clark returns Eben suffers a heart attack, and is declared dead by a doctor later that day, as Clark comforts a bereaved Sarah. Sarah says “He was a good man”, and Clark says “He was a good father”. Some time later, Clark and Sarah are at the Smallville bustop. Clark is being sent off to make use of his powers for the common good. She gives him his costume, saying she made it from the indestructible blankets he was found in. They say their goodbyes, and Clark boards the bus to Metropolis. Upon arriving, Clark blends in by donning glasses and acting mild mannered and timid. He goes for a job interview for a journalist position at the Daily Planet, but is stuck waiting hours outside, only to be refused to even be seen by Perry White. Clark decides to hop on the ledge and go through Perry's window, where he interrupts a conversation between Lois Lane and Perry. As Perry asks how he got in Clark simply says he climbed in through the window, as Perry is trying to get a more credible explanation Jimmy Olsen bursts into the office, saying that there was a man hanging off a blimp which can't make a landing due to high winds. Lois and Jimmy rush off to cover the story, and Clark asks Perry if the man was rescued and he got the story, would he be hired? Perry not quite listening says yes, and Clark rushes off to the store room, and for the first time changes into Superman, and flies off. At the blimp, the man hanging onto the rope falls off but is caught by Superman. Clark gets the exclusive story from the man, and back at the daily planet office, the man Lois and Jimmy are all attesting to seeing a “Super-guy” fly off after rescuing him. Clark gets the job and the headline reads "SUPERMAN RESCUES AIRPORT MECHANIC. Catches Doomed Man Mid-Air As He Falls From Blimp Rope. by Clark Kent." Lois however, has a few questions for Clark. How did he leave after Lois and Jimmy but get to the scene first? How did he manage to find the man before every ace reporter in the City? Clark merely replies “Maybe I'm a Superman.” Flight to the North A tall muscular simple-minded country man walks into the crumly hotel with his Mule Lilly Belle, he announces himself to the clerk as Sylvester J Superman from Skunk Hollow. The clerk asks him to bend a steel bar and he does so with his bare hands, the Clerk mistaking him for the real superman in disguise gives him a room even allowing his Mule to accompany him. Meanwhile "Leftover" Louie Lyman has just been released from prison after a 5 year sentence thanks to the articles of Clark Kent about the Bank Job he pulled. After he confronts Clark at his office and fails to intimidate him, he goes to his room in the Crumby hotel where he meets with his partner in crime Buckets. They discuss the 50 grand hidden away but end up getting into an argument over who can make a better lemom meringue pie, Louie's old friend Margie or Buckets old aunt. They end up wagering the money stashed away on it and Louie leaves to find Margie. Meanwhile Sylvester J Superman mistakes an ad written by Margie in the Daily Planet help section asking for Superman to mean him, Clark Kent also reads this ad and they both head to Margie's, While this is happening Louie is trying to get a Lemon meringue pie from Margie, but Margie has baked only one and its for her fiance, who also made her promise not to bake pies for anyone else. As Louie is about to steal it, Sylvester J Superman arrives with his Mule Lilly Belle and deters Louie who does not want any crimes he commits witnessed. Margie is confused as she was expecting the real superman, but sure enough Sylvester moves a large piano with ease and she is convinced he is the man for the job, the job being her lemon meringue pie needs to be flown to an air force base in the arctic swiftly to be delivered to her fiance Steve. Clark Kent arrives to see this and is curious as to how Sylvester will proceed. As they exit Louie tries to buy the Pie from Sylvester but is flatly declined, and Sylvester leaves for the air base. Meanwhile at the base Steve is talking to himself in the mirror when Sylvester strides in with his Mule Lilly Belle. He delivers the pie and Steve is shocked to find that it is indeed Margie's famous Lemon meringue pie. As they eat it Louie comes in brandishing a gun and steals the pie, Steve chases after him with a gun but doesn't shoot, when Sylvester asks why he didn't shoot Steve just said hes not worth it. Meanwhile the real Superman has found out from Bucket that Louie rented a plane. Flying over to the airbase in the arctic he discovers (after Superman meets Superman) upon arrival that Louie's plane has gone down and he is requesting assistance. Superman flies over and rescues him, then delivers the pie back to Steve. Louie, now back in the Crumby hotel thanks to Superman is trying to warm himself when Chuckles enters and reveals that his aunt threw him out and neither of them got pies, therefore making the bet void. After their experiences they vow to go straight, and tell this to a visiting Clark Kent and Sylvester J Superman. Sylvester decides to go back to skunk hollow where he can be plain ol superman, as the big city just isn't for him. Clark shakes his hand and wishes him (and Lilly Belle) the best of luck.
The surprising conclusion to this two part episode is bound to leave you wondering what will happen next! As Perry is forced to deal with some issues from the past, everyone races against time to stop an evil beast from being unleashed!
Between the late 1940s and the early 1960s, hundreds of thousands of people from the British Commonwealth migrated the United Kingdom with plans to settle and find work. Kennetta Hammond Perry‘s new book, London is the Place for Me: Black Britons, Citizenship, and the Politics of Race (Oxford University Press, 2015), is a political history of postwar Caribbean migration. Perry shifts our attention away from the response of white Britons and focuses it instead on the politics of black Caribbean migrants. As Perry notes, migration itself was a practice of citizenship, and Afro-Caribbeans saw moving to the UK not as immigration but as their right as British citizens. Furthermore, Perry demonstrates that as black political activists organized against racial discrimination, racist violence, and legislation designed to limit migration, their shared belief that living in Britain was one of their citizenship rights was the foundation of their activism.
