Most coaches think they have a marketing problem. Truth is… They have a trust problem. In this episode, I walk you through the exact marketing system we're using to sell over $52M/year in coaching programs. Not theory. Not "one funnel away" BS. The actual system we use to sign 5 to 20+ new clients a month (yes, on repeat) without giving into 'trend tracking' or burning your ad budget on webinar funnels that just don't work anymore. Here's what you'll discover: • Why views, content, and followers aren't converting (and the one metric you must fix) • The 6 RMAs Playbooks that generate leads, book calls, and close clients while you sleep • The $100K/week partner case study (and how fast it happened) • Why most coaches stall at $30K/month—and how to break through to $100K+ • The 7-11-4 Trust Framework that makes strangers buy from you • How to go from "struggling founder" to "peaceful operator" in 90 days • The only 3 phases that matter: Incubate, Step Up, Scale Up • How to build a sales machine that prints clients (even if you hate tech) • What's actually working and what to stop doing ASAP • Why most masterminds, agencies, and ad coaches are keeping you stuck • How to build a $1M/year profit machine without becoming the bottleneck If you're ready to simplify, scale, and finally enjoy your business again…

Most people think views equal success. They don't. In this conversation, Sam Gaudet and Chris Dufey break down what actually matters if you want content to turn into revenue, not just attention. If your content is not creating clients, it is not building a business. It is just entertainment. This episode goes deep into the real metrics serious operators track, including: • Followers gained per video • View velocity in the first 24 to 36 hours • View to follower ratio • Followers to revenue You will learn why a video with 250,000 views and 10,000 new followers is far more valuable than a video with 1 million views and 100 followers, and how viral content can quietly damage your brand by attracting the wrong audience. They also explain why they do not run ads or chase virality for personal brands, how trust is built at scale, and how to think about content like an actual growth engine instead of a guessing game. If you are posting every day but not seeing real business results, this episode will completely change how you think about content, growth, and what actually matters. This is how professionals use content to build real businesses. —— In this video: 00:00 — Why most people misunderstand content and growth 01:05 — Content vs business, what is the difference 02:10 — Awareness without revenue is not a business 03:20 — The real goal of social media 04:15 — Why followers to revenue is the only metric that matters 05:40 — Followers gained per video explained 07:10 — View velocity and why it predicts winners in 24 hours 09:05 — The metric nobody tracks, view to follower ratio 11:10 — Why viral videos can destroy your brand 13:00 — 250k views vs 10k followers, what actually wins 15:10 — Why Sam and Chris do not run ads on personal brands 17:00 — How facial impressions affect trust and conversion 18:40 — Editing, thumbnails, and reacting to momentum in real time 20:00 — Followers vs clients, lagging vs leading metrics 22:10 — How content turns into a sales pipeline 24:00 — What high quality audience really means 26:30 — Protecting your brand while you scale 28:30 — Final thoughts on content that actually makes money —— If this is our first time meeting, hey

Not the "Instagram answer." Not the "entrepreneur answer." Not the "be a good husband, father, provider" answer. The real one. At 37, I found myself replaying every decision, every success, every sacrifice… wondering how I got here and whether the direction I was sprinting toward was even the right one anymore. Doubt can chain you down. But if you're honest enough to face it… it can also become a compass. So I went downstairs. Opened my journal. And poured everything out. What came out turned into the deepest personal reset I've ever had. 16 powerful "dials" I now use to recalibrate my life, my business, my relationships, my purpose. In this video, I'm sharing them. Not polished. Not performative. Not "guru wisdom." Just the raw, unfiltered reflections of an entrepreneur, husband, father, and human trying to build a life that actually feels meaningful… not just impressive. You'll hear me talk about: Why "success" nearly cost me my peace and my family presence The brutal truth about imbalance, burnout, and ambition How I define purpose now (and how totally different it is) Legacy, love, leadership, and why impact matters more than metrics Why harmony matters more than "work-life balance" Gratitude, impermanence, joy, and being truly alive And why the world doesn't need more "successful" people… It needs more grounded, fulfilled, fully-present ones. If you've ever woken up in the middle of the night questioning your direction… If you're "doing great" externally but wrestling internally… If you want a life that feels aligned, not just impressive… This one's for you. __ In this video: 00:00 — The 3:02AM Question That Changed Everything 01:06 — Turning Chaos Into Clarity (16 Life "Dials") 01:12 — The One Question That Unraveled a Thousand Others 01:45 — My Notes, My North Star: The "Dials" That Guide My Life 02:06 — When Success Crashes Into Reality 03:07 — Finally Asking: "What Do I Truly Want?" 03:35 — Why Fulfillment Doesn't Live in Your Bank Account 04:43 — Meaning Isn't Found.

They need to see how real operators actually think when scaling. This episode is a raw, behind-the-scenes strategy session where Chris Dufey sits down with Brian Mark to break down the exact thinking, systems, and decisions currently being used to scale a coaching business toward multi-seven figures per month. What you're listening to isn't a polished interview. It's a real working conversation. The same type of call we run with partners and clients when we're diagnosing growth bottlenecks and mapping the fastest path forward. Not theory. No "just post more content" nonsense. —— In this video: 00:00 — Inside a real scaling strategy session 00:14 — Why Brian's a rocketship (and why that matters) 01:06 — Why most coaches are stuck on the content hamster wheel 01:38 — Diagnosing bottlenecks in a growing business 01:52 — The 3 key buckets behind multi-seven-figure growth 02:09 — Engineering ads and funnels that actually convert 02:22 — Staying in your zone of genius as you scale 02:32 — Why you can't stay a one-person operation 02:41 — Building a team without chaos 02:53 — Measuring success without guessing 03:09 — The system that turns attention into revenue 03:29 — Why live workshops still work 03:49 — Repositioning calls for warmer buyers 04:19 — Fixing call fatigue and market skepticism 05:11 — Why you're not "one funnel away" 05:20 — The 3-bucket growth framework (know → trust → convert) 05:55 — Eliminating operational drag 06:12 — What actually creates rapid, clean growth 06:22 — Lead generation tools that still work 06:46 — Using WhatsApp and messaging correctly 07:12 — Outbound done the right way 07:21 — Where to go deeper (RMAS system) 07:35 — The critical numbers most coaches ignore 08:04 — Removing uncertainty from growth 08:22 — How this system works end-to-end 08:45 — Going deeper with the full model 08:58 — Doing it yourself —— If this is our first time meeting, hey

Because most businesses aren't stalled because funnels don't work, ads don't work, or content doesn't work. Most people aren't stuck because funnels don't work, ads don't work, or the content doesn't work. They're stalled because they're optimizing the wrong part of the business. I've sold a multi–seven-figure coaching business. Launched a consulting offer to a $1M run rate in 63 days. Scaled an agency to $200k/month in under 90 days. And after working behind the scenes of some of the most profitable info and coaching businesses out there, I can tell you this: Growth is way simpler than people make it. In this video, I walk you through: • The 3 biggest mistakes keeping businesses stuck • Why random acts of marketing kill momentum • How to diagnose the real bottleneck slowing growth • The Precision Cycle: diagnose → install → optimize → repeat • Why scaling broken systems makes everything worse • The 10K-a-Day Plan for mechanical growth • The 8 foundational playbooks every business needs • The 5 core departments every business must be built on • Why freedom has to be designed, not hoped for This isn't theory. It's the exact framework we use with members to remove guesswork and make growth predictable. You don't need a longer to-do list. You need clarity on what matters right now. Watch this with the intention to apply it, not just understand it.

Most people think scaling means more. More offers. More funnels. More hires. More chaos. That's the lie. In this video, I break down exactly how I hit a $1M run rate in 63 days with no team, no paid ads, no fancy launch, and why doing less is what finally worked. This came right after I sold my last multi–seven-figure business. I was burnt out. Overbuilt. Drowning in complexity. So I made one promise to myself: This one has to feel light. No 15-person team. No bloated Slack channels. No pretending I love to grind. Just a clean system that prints cash without running my life. Here's what actually moved the needle: • Why most offers sound clever but don't solve real pain • The "hell yes" test your offer must pass • How simplifying to one offer, one funnel, one metric changed everything • Why leverage isn't automation… it's efficiency • How I rebuilt delivery so clients win faster with less of me • The exact message that filled my calendar with high-value clients • The timeline exercise that shows you what to cut (and what to keep) No standard 'guru' speak. No 47-module programs. No outdated hustle advice. Just a simple machine that works even when you're offline. If your business feels heavier than it should… If you're working harder but not scaling cleaner… If you want a path to growth that doesn't wreck your life… This episode is for you.

Most people say they want financial freedom. Very few ever define what that actually means. And that's where everything goes wrong. This video isn't about getting rich. It's about getting free. For real. I'm sharing this because I've lived both sides. Sleeping on a couch. My wife pregnant with our first child. Halfway across the world in Dubai. Selling everything I owned with one question looping in my head: "Can I actually give them the life they deserve?" I was trapped in time-for-money. Burnt out. Chasing cash thinking it would fix how I felt inside. It didn't. What changed everything was understanding this: True freedom is downstream from financial freedom. But money alone isn't the goal. In this episode, I break down: • Why most people misunderstand financial freedom • The difference between external freedom and internal peace • What "f*ck you money" really means • Why a financial cushion changes how you choose clients, projects, and life • The mistake I made that nearly wiped us out financially • How scarcity destroys joy  (Yes, even when you're "successful") • The invisible scorecards that actually define a rich life • Why most people chase status instead of fulfillment • A simple, boring wealth-building strategy that actually works • How to define your version of "enough" This is honest. Raw. Sometimes uncomfortable. Because financial freedom isn't about Lamborghinis or renouncing money altogether. It's about: • peace • choice • alignment • integrity • being able to say no without fear It's about building a life you're proud of before you get there, not postponing happiness until some future number. If you're building a business… If you're providing for a family… If you feel that internal pull for more meaning, not just more money… Don't just watch this. Use it. —— In this video: 00:00 — The real question behind financial freedom 01:00 — Sleeping on a couch, wife pregnant, starting over 02:00 — The time-for-money trap 03:00 — Why chasing money didn't bring peace 04:05 — The five essential freedoms (and why money comes first) 05:15 — External freedom vs internal freedom 06:40 — Why success without peace isn't success 07:20 — What "fuck you money" actually means 08:40 — Saying no without fear 09:30 — The danger of scarcity-driven decisions 10:45 — The mistake that nearly wiped us out 12:00 — Financial freedom as the foundation 13:10 — How much money is actually enough? 14:20 — Making money vs building wealth 15:15 — The simple wealth-building flywheel 16:30 — Internal vs external scorecards 18:00 — Status games vs a life you're proud of 19:30 — Why happiness can't be delayed 20:45 — Defining your own version of freedom 21:50 — Final thoughts and what to do next —— If this is our first time meeting, hey

Most people think money fixes everything. It doesn't. It just exposes what you never defined in the first place. My recent conversation with Sharran Srivatsaa (Acquisition.com President) starts with a quiet tension: building something big while trying not to lose the people who matter most. Fatherhood. Money. Ambition. Guilt. All colliding at once. The truth is this: More income without a framework doesn't buy freedom. It buys anxiety with better branding. In this episode, we go deep on what actually works: • Why freezing your lifestyle is the real cheat code • The exact definition of financial freedom (no vibes, just math) • How to run a family P&L like a real business • Why most entrepreneurs are chasing income instead of equity • The parenting framework that removes guilt without quitting the mission • How to stop "working harder" and start diagnosing what's broken • The difference between growth and scale (and why confusing them keeps you stuck) Not with SMART goals. Not with KPIs. Not with OKRs or any of that MBA bullshit. But with simple rules, clear scoreboards, and decisions you can actually live with. One line hit hard: "If you don't know what 'enough' is, you'll never feel like you're winning." This isn't theory. It's lived experience. Five exits. 20+ years. Millions made (and millions lost). And a framework that now runs: the business the money and the family (without everything bleeding into everything else). If you're building fast but feeling off… If money keeps increasing but peace doesn't… If you're winning on paper but questioning the cost… This episode is for you. Watch it slowly, and take notes. Then decide what enough actually means for you.

Most funnels don't fail quietly. They drain your time. Your energy. And your belief that this shit can actually work. So I tested every (yes, every) funnel so you don't have to. VSLs. Webinars. Challenges. Tripwires. Quiz funnels. DM scripts. All of it. It took me nine months, and more money than I care to admit. And here's the truth no one wants to say out loud: Most funnels suck. Unless you're already internet famous… Have a massive following… Or host a podcast with Tim Ferriss… Almost any funnel can work. But what about the rest of us? What if you're just a damn good coach who wants great clients consistently? Without living inside content calendars, DMs, or ad dashboards? That's what this video is about. In this episode, I break down the one funnel that beat everything else every single time, because it's: • Simple • Clean • Built on trust (not hype) • Scales without big ad budgets • Works even with a small or nonexistent audience We talk about why: • Followers don't equal buyers • Daily content farms lead to burnout, not scale • DM closing repels high-trust clients • Most funnels fail because the market doesn't believe anymore And what actually works instead. I call it the Trust Engine. It's the highest-converting system we've ever tested and we've installed it in 200+ coaching businesses across niches. Health. Business. Relationships. Agencies. Service pros. Same result. Because it's built on three things: 1. A strong, obvious offer 2. Smart nurture that builds trust before the call 3. A clean sales process with zero pressure No "only 3 spots left" bullshit. Just a system that helps serious buyers make serious decisions. And this isn't theory. We've helped: • Coaches go from $32k → $108k/month in 90 days • Coaches hit $240k in a quarter after years of funnel hopping • Coaches with zero audience book 21 calls in 10 days and close $40k If your business feels noisy… If your funnel isn't converting… If you're doing too much for too little return… This episode will save you months of wasted effort. —— In this video: 00:00 — I tested every funnel so you don't have to 00:35 — Why most funnels fail 01:05 — The myth of massive followings 01:40 — Why daily content leads to burnout 02:15 — The DM closing lie 02:50 — What actually works: the Trust Engine 03:20 — Why trust beats tactics 03:55 — The 3 pillars of a high-converting funnel 04:30 — Why your offer matters more than the funnel 05:05 — Smart nurture vs pressure selling 05:40 — Clean sales with zero gimmicks 06:10 — Real client results (across niches) 07:00 — Why most funnels fail in today's market 07:40 — Engineering trust at scale 08:20 — Finding the choke point in your business 08:55 — Stay in your zone of genius 09:35 — What to do next —— If this is our first time meeting, hey

Most entrepreneurs claim they're building their business for their family, but their calendar tells another story. In this video, I share how I built a "successful" business on paper. Revenue was climbing, Stripe was pinging, everyone thought I was winning. But behind the scenes, I was overworked, disconnected from my wife and kids, and losing myself in the grind. Until I got a wake-up call I couldn't ignore. This is the true story of how I simplified everything, leaned on systems, and built a business that no longer runs me—so I could scale without sacrifice. In this video: 00:00 Starting the lie we all buy 00:08 Chasing growth over presence 00:17 Revenue up, but why was I doing it? 00:27 The "grind harder" mindset trap 00:35 Why hustle felt heroic 00:41 The lie I told myself it was for my family 01:03 When it stopped being worth it 01:07 10–14 hour days, living in "busy" 01:14 The wake‑up call from my wife 01:29 The moment my daughter asked for time 01:54 Realizing growth without health/family is destruction 02:02 I stopped the madness, not the business 02:20 My business runs when I step away 02:37 Who this message is for (coaches/consultants) 03:17 What's possible with systems, not hustle 03:53 The real cost of chasing revenue only 04:03 What the true scoreboard is: peace, presence, purpose 04:18 If you feel stuck, here's your choice 05:26 What I want you to walk away with 05:51 Final thoughts and next steps ___

If you're a coach or consultant working hard but still stuck, growth not matching effort, and the freedom you started for still feels out of reach, you're in the right place. I'm not here to sell hype or funnels. I built and sold my own coaching biz. I helped agencies hit $200K/month. I consulted 7 to 9 figure founders. Now I'm here to help you build a business that works without burning you out. In this video: 00:00 Why a million dollar month is possible 00:20 It's not magic, it's a system 00:35 Why most coaches stay stuck 01:07 Real results, real numbers 02:18 How the Rainmakers Model was built 03:17 Why this is worth your time 03:48 How the model works 04:21 Retention and client lifetime value 05:24 Lock in consistent profit 05:41 The 8 accelerators 07:03 More leads, better conversions, bigger deals 08:59 Reduce churn and increase retention 11:02 Add more offers, build ascension 12:28 Grow your total market 13:30 Profit matters 15:06 Build a business that runs without you 17:09 Spot what's missing 18:47 What working with us looks like 19:57 Why we vet every partner 20:26 Already have a team?

If you're still stuck selling, delivering, and scrambling for the next sale, this will hit home. One client added $318,000 in recurring revenue in 30 days. No viral reels. No fancy funnels. No massive team. Just a better system. Most coaches are trapped on the high-ticket hamster wheel. Make a sale, deliver, repeat. It feels like growth, but it's just a business built on burnout. The moment leads dry up, panic sets in. And the cycle starts all over again. I'll show you how to break free from that trap and install the same 3-part system we use to scale coaches to $100K–$300K+ months without chaos.

If you're a coach or consultant stuck on calls, solving every problem, and still waiting for freedom, this is for you. I've built and sold coaching businesses, scaled new ones to $200K months in under 90 days, and helped 7–9 figure founders grow clean, profitable companies that don't depend on them. This podcast is about building a business that gives you your life back. No "hustle" or productivity hacks, just real systems that work. -------- In this episode: 00:00 Tired of working hard with no freedom? 00:13 Who I am and what we do 00:32 Why I started this channel 00:41 Million-dollar growth after non-compete 00:50 Agency to $200K/mo in 90 days 00:56 Consulting 7–9 figure businesses 01:11 Success but still stuck 01:20 You're the bottleneck 01:35 Business shouldn't feel like a job 01:51 The endless growth trap 02:03 Scaling something you hate 02:21 The one new rule 02:28 What this channel isn't 02:48 A cleaner, low-stress model 03:18 Is this channel for you? 03:30 Simple scaling, no extra headaches 03:47 What's working right now 04:02 What to do next 04:30 Welcome to the new way —

Chris Dufey joins us for a refresh on living a fulfilling life, where we explore the balance between earning money and finding meaning. We challenge the idea of a one-size-fits-all approach to success, highlighting that it's a deeply personal journey. As someone with a coaching background, Chris reflects on moving away from telling others what to do, toward guiding them to trust their own unique process.Chris and I dive into…➝ Harnessing male sexual energy for personal growth➝ A holistic perspective to true success➝ Navigating parental boundaries➝ Aligning wealth creation with purpose➝ Finding middle ground between extremesRESOURCESThe Multi-Orgasmic Man: https://www.amazon.com/Multi-Orgasmic-Man-Sexual-Secrets-Should/dp/B007IJS11Q/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2JL5QIDM1JU1K&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.ehj3n7cffxRPQhHimCIEMLidCRhuS4_AtziE07hvESDFUtLL_QkVBQVQiOlR6ZDF1np4emnIALrdYuEQrmo4LHyFzFELfKXiasCwf4ID3On-rFWlaegPGzbpPJXm2J5rO_BJ1uQfH7-VLHGMogxDF4JZU1rJG_3xX4AlLpPX4Es8-XoFfik2rpxYsVPwe7fZ.K3BwJK1Sc8Lfrzvhphr3PbuwqAv79kPCxDWCP2d6ugk&dib_tag=se&keywords=The+Multi-Orgasmic+Man&qid=1729022818&sprefix=the+multi-orgasmic+man%2Caps%2C139&sr=8-1Mattr BioWellness Club: https://www.mattrbiowellnessclub.comDerek Sivers' Success Essay: https://www.chrisdufey.com/sivers/CONNECT WITH CHRISInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisdufey/Chris Dufey Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/7oxA2pHnZ3s2hPY60ZhVl7?si=a2ef66d0f5274844Chris' Essays: https://www.chrisdufey.com/essay/CONNECT WITH CALInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/cal.callahan/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thegreatunlearnYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/thegreatunlearn/Website: https://www.thegreatunlearn.comSubscribe to the newsletter: https://www.thegreatunlearn.com/newsletter

If you're like me and most business owners you probably grapple with how to focus on just doing 1 service and helping 1 avatar… I recorded a 1-1 consult a while back where I went through how we can pick the avatar we want to work with and the offer we want to sell when we feel the pull to go down different paths.. And I wanted to share this with you as a behind the scenes look as most business owners feel the pull to do so many things but when we chase all of them we achieve none of them..

Do you want to create more Freedom in your life? And I ask that seriously, because if you do, then this episode is for you. Thankfully I've known Sterling for many years as we've been in the same business circles, and I've watched him go from strength to strength. But this is just the start of it. In This Episode You'll Learn: How Sterling grew a successful online business, only to know he didn't want it anymore What happened for him to exit his business and give him the true freedom he's always wanted.
