The new year hype is gone — and what's left is the truth.In this episode of The MindShare Podcast, David Greenspan doesn't offer tactics, frameworks, or motivation. Instead, he puts listeners in front of a mirror with seven uncomfortable questions that expose where agents, brokerages, and the industry itself are drifting.Recorded ahead of moderating a private dinner for high-level leaders, this episode explores what really determines who survives the next decade in real estate — and who becomes replaceable by technology, portals, or apathy.David unpacks:Who the real “enemy” of the industry will be in 10 yearsHow lowered standards quietly erode public trustThe behaviours that poison the well for everyoneWhat high performers do differently when nobody's watchingThe emotional weight people keep carrying instead of confrontingWhy distractions often protect us from harder decisionsHow to define a successful day before looking at the numbers00:00 – IntroWhy this episode isn't hype, tactics, or answers03:10 – Who Does the Industry Hate in 10 Years?Technology, attention, and being easy to replace10:45 – What Standard Cheapens the Profession?How erosion happens quietly — and why silence is costly17:30 – What Behaviour Lowers the Bar for Everyone?Why consumer trust is shared, not individual25:40 – Sponsor BreakKiTS Keep-in-Touch Systems & REM Real Estate Magazine28:00 – What Do You Respect in High Performers?The traits that last when flash fades35:10 – If 20% Disappeared Tomorrow…Emotional weight, misalignment, and hard decisions avoided43:30 – What Distraction Protects You?How convenience becomes the enemy of progress50:10 – How Do You Know It Was a Good Day?Building an internal scoreboard that keeps you grounded56:30 – Final Action Sequence & Close

In this Best Year Yet episode, Eric Thompson interviews Belle Caplis, a Brooklyn based Compass agent on the Bateman Fields team. Belle shares how she grew from 9 million in sales volume to 23.6 million in 2025, increasing from 11 to 25 sales transactions, while also expanding rentals and referral business. Belle's story is especially compelling because her real estate career began in March of 2020, just days before New York City shut down. With the city locked down and her new career uncertain, she found structure and community through a Compass recovery meeting that led her to Ninja Selling and a powerful accountability practice called the 10 at 10. Three times a week, Belle joined a Zoom session, started with gratitude, then turned cameras off and called 10 people using FORD questions before regrouping to report back. That early rhythm gave her confidence, listening skills, and the ability to build trust fast, which later made her highly effective even with Zillow leads, where she routinely stayed on calls 30 to 40 minutes to deepen connection. Belle explains that her 2025 growth came from two main shifts. First, she became much better at follow up after open houses, using specific, personalized follow up tied to what the person said and continuing to deliver value through listings, pricing strategy, and education rather than generic check ins. Second, she leaned fully into education and service across her sphere by giving real estate advice freely, offering to find answers when she did not know them, and becoming the person people consult for clarity. Belle's approach is rooted in what she calls rigorous honesty, transparency, and risk analysis. She promises clients she cannot control outcomes, but she can control how honest and clear she is, and she builds deep trust by pointing out both pros and potential risks so clients can make confident decisions. She closes by encouraging listeners to be imperfect, take small steps, be honest about what they are not doing, and start again tomorrow. Key Takeaways Accountability creates momentum and Belle's early 10 at 10 practice built confidence, consistency, and relationship skills fast FORD questions are a business builder because they shift the focus to people, create trust, and help you listen for what matters Attraction over promotion works because you do not need to announce you are an agent, you just lead with curiosity and care Trust building beats pretending and the phrase "I'm not one hundred percent on that, so I'll get back to you very soon" protects credibility and creates natural follow up Longer first conversations create faster trust and Belle's ability to stay connected for 30 to 40 minutes helped her convert leads at a higher level Open house follow up is a growth lever when it is specific, personal, and value based rather than generic check ins Education is a referral engine when you freely explain pricing strategy, negotiation, and why listings sell or do not sell Service creates opportunity because you never know where the next referral will come from, so treat everyone like they matter Define your A list as the people you are rooting for and call them to reset your mindset and get out of your own head Humor and personality can be part of flow and Belle uses memes, "real estate gossip," and stories to stay top of mind while reinforcing expertise Rigorous honesty builds lifetime clients and Belle's promise is transparency, not outcomes she cannot control Risk analysis is a differentiator because clients feel protected, informed, and confident in their decisions Progress matters more than perfection and small daily improvements compound into big years Memorable Quotes "I onboarded at Compass on a Wednesday in March of 2020 and on Friday the entire city shut down." "I don't know how to do real estate, but I know how to go to a meeting." "This is attraction, not promotion." "I'm not one hundred percent on that and I don't want to answer until I am, so I'm going to get back to you very soon." "My goal was to gain trust before I got off that phone call." "I'm not a gatekeeper." "My A's are the people that I am rooting for." "The fastest way for me to reset to factory settings is to focus on other people." "I'm going to tell you no way more than I'm going to tell you yes." "I give you permission to not do it well today. Just do it." "Make one or two baby steps of progress today, then start over tomorrow."

If you're building software in the AI era, speed is everywhere—and that's exactly why discipline matters more than ever. In Part 2 of our interview with Angelo Zanetti, one strategy keeps coming up as the smartest path for founders and product teams: go web first. You validate demand faster, avoid app-store friction, and you get a clearer signal before you spend real money on the mobile "tax." About Angelo Zanetti Angelo Zanetti is the co-founder and CEO of Elemental, a South African-based software development agency helping startups and scaleups worldwide bring digital products to life. Since 2005, his team has specialized in building scalable, high-performance web apps and software platforms that solve complex business problems. With deep technical knowledge and strategic thinking, Angelo has helped founders launch bespoke software products that are lean, user-focused, and future-ready. He's served on boards including BISA and Entrepreneurs' Organisation Cape Town, and he's a proud member of the global founder community OPUS. Go web first in the AI era AI is changing how teams build, but it doesn't change what makes a product succeed. Angelo's take is balanced: AI can absolutely make developers faster—but it can also make mistakes bigger if you don't have the experience to catch what's wrong. He shares a story that captures the risk perfectly: a developer using Cursor accidentally had the database dropped and recreated. The tool didn't intend harm—it simply took a destructive shortcut with confidence. Go web first and use AI like an amplifier. In the hands of an experienced developer, AI accelerates delivery. In the hands of someone guessing, it accelerates failure. Go web first when you're still validating demand If the goal is traction, the fastest route is often not a mobile app. Angelo points out that mobile adds overhead: submissions take time, changes can slow down release cycles, and testing requires compiles plus device/emulator workflows that can drag early iterations. When you go web first, you can ship faster, adjust faster, and learn faster. That matters when you're still figuring out what users actually value. Avoid app-store friction App stores introduce delays and rules. Even when you do everything right, you're waiting on review cycles and dealing with policies that can change. By starting on the web, you keep your feedback loop tight and your roadmap in your control. Shorten the feedback loop This is the hidden advantage: going web first makes iteration feel like steering instead of guessing. You can test onboarding, pricing pages, feature positioning, and workflows in days—not weeks—then respond to what real users do, not what you hope they do. Go web first, but use AI safely AI doesn't remove the need for senior judgment. Angelo's point is that experienced developers still matter because the hard part is translation—turning vision into structure, edge cases, and maintainable architecture. AI can accelerate progress—go web first with guardrails Go web first and set guardrails early: backups, version control, review practices, and clear boundaries for what AI can touch. Tools can generate code quickly, but your team still owns security, data safety, and reliability. Mistakes are cheaper to fix When you're validating, mistakes are inevitable. The goal is to make them inexpensive. A web-first approach keeps the cost of change lower, so you don't "lock in" bad assumptions behind a costly mobile release cycle. Go web first by planning like an architect Angelo uses a metaphor that founders immediately get: building software is like building a house—you don't start by putting up walls. You start with an architect. Planning is a real deliverable: scope, user journeys, exceptions, and specifications. It's often undervalued because it's not as tangible as code, but Angelo calls it key to success—especially if you want to scale later without rebuilding from scratch. Start with a clear scope and user journeys Go web first with a simple, documented path: who the user is, what outcome they want, and what steps they take. When the journey is clear, the MVP stays focused—and your team can defend scope when feature requests start creeping in. Define a foundation you can scale You don't need to over-engineer. But you do need a foundation that won't collapse if adoption spikes. A web-first product can still be built with smart architecture that supports growth—without pretending you already have millions of users. Go web first, then go mobile when users pull you there Angelo shares a practical signal for mobile timing: when people keep asking for it—repeatedly—through engagement, social channels, and real usage patterns, the decision becomes obvious. That's when "it makes sense," not when it's a personal preference. When mobile adds real value If the web product is solving the problem and users are happy, mobile isn't automatically better. Go web first until mobile improves retention, engagement, or access in a way the web can't. When hardware features make going mobile necessary Mobile becomes the right answer when you truly need what mobile devices offer—hardware-level capabilities that a web app can't reliably provide. Closing: Go web first, then expand with confidence Part 2 is a reminder that modern tools don't replace fundamentals—they raise the stakes. Use AI to accelerate, but respect planning and safety. And when you're still proving demand, go web first. You'll learn faster, waste less, and you'll earn your way into mobile when the market makes the call.

When it comes to money, status, and stuff, the line between “progress” and “pointless flex” can get blurry fast. In this episode, Travis and Eric break down the psychology behind big purchases, status signaling, and those subtle (and not-so-subtle) money games people play at dinners, events, and in their DMs. From buying a truck that literally lost a wheel to splitting a $400-per-head Vegas dinner he barely ate, Travis shares the real lessons behind spending, signaling, and staying sane around wealthy people. On this episode we talk about: The truck purchase that felt like “making it” but really wasn't Why some “level-up” buys are actually just expensive distractions Chasing status in high school with phones, Beats, and gadgets How rich dinners, bottle service, and bill-splitting mess with your head What Travis would actually hate to sell if he had to clear out his life Top 3 Takeaways The feeling from a flashy purchase is temporary; the money you spent is gone forever. It's better to pursue the ability to buy anything you want than to obsess over specific status items. Generosity at the table (picking up the bill, being fair about splitting) builds real social capital that outlasts any flex. Notable Quotes “That feeling was fleeting, but the money was gone forever.” “I stopped caring about the thing and started caring about my ability to go buy the thing.” “If I have the money, I don't need the company to bless me with a trip to The Bahamas—I can just go to The Bahamas.” Connect with Travis: Instagram: @travischappell Website: travischappell.com Travis Makes Money is made possible by High Level – the All-In-One Sales & Marketing Platform built for agencies, by an agency.

She held his hand while he died. Genea was four years old. He was a Vietnam vet. A junkie. And the only person around who made her feel loved. Her mom was emotionally unavailable, physically abusive, and gaslighting her constantly. So this man up the street became her best friend. He gave her what her mom couldn't. Belonging. Encouragement. Safety. And then he overdosed. And she watched him die. That was just the beginning. Trauma stacked on trauma until Genea's entire nervous system was wired for one thing: survival. She never wanted her trauma to define her. But it did. It defined every job she took. Every relationship she stayed in. Every dollar she made. She couldn't make more money than her mom. She couldn't step into what she wanted. She couldn't hold joy when she found it. In this raw solo episode, Genea opens up about:

Does thinking about 2026 make you feel excited… or a little anxious? Then let's talk about Fear Setting.If you're walking into the new year with big dreams and big doubts, you're in good company. In this episode, I share a powerful mental and emotional exercise called fear setting, popularized by author and entrepreneur Tim Ferriss, that has helped me face my fears with more clarity and confidence.Unlike goal setting, fear setting asks you to define exactly what you're afraid of, explore ways to reduce or prevent those fears, and consider how you'd recover if the worst did happen. It sounds intense, but it's a surprisingly freeing process that can help you move forward instead of staying stuck.I walk you through the three key parts of fear setting using a personal example — my journey to cotinue building Podground as we move into the new year. This simple exercise helped me name what I was afraid of (from rejection to the fear of success), and then take small, intentional steps forward with faith and focus.Whether you're considering a job change, a creative project, or just feel pulled toward something new — this episode will help you get clear on what's stopping you, and why it doesn't have to.This episode is for you if:You want to do something big or new in 2026 but feel afraidYou feel overwhelmed by your own expectationsYou've been stuck in overthinking and are ready for clarityYou want a faith-based approach to bold, wise decision-making What You'll Learn:What fear setting is, and how Tim Ferriss used it to make bold life decisionsA 3-part fear setting framework: Define, Prevent, and RepairHow to consider both the benefits of action and the cost of inactionA real-life example of how I used fear setting to step into growthA reminder that God can be trusted with your future and your fearsScripture Mentioned: Proverbs 3:5-6 "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight."

Negotiate Anything: Negotiation | Persuasion | Influence | Sales | Leadership | Conflict Management
Winning in real estate has less to do with price — and everything to do with how you negotiate. In this Negotiation Masterclass edition of Negotiate Anything, Kwame Christian brings together three real estate experts from vastly different markets to reveal how elite negotiators win when competition is fierce and the stakes are real. You'll hear how top residential agents win bidding wars by setting expectations early, building trust fast, and positioning offers so effectively they beat higher prices. You'll learn how luxury brokers use pricing psychology and instant credibility to create leverage in cutthroat markets—and how commercial negotiators play the long game, where emotional discipline and reputation drive success over decades, not just deals. In this episode, you'll learn: Why trust and authenticity outperform tactics How pricing is negotiation strategy How to manage emotions in high-stakes deals When walking away strengthens your position How elite negotiators build reputations that compound over time Whether you're in real estate, sales, or leadership, this masterclass will change how you negotiate when pressure is high and competition is relentless.

Business Coaching Secrets Episode 330 Recap In this episode, Karl Bryan and Road Dog dive deep into the hidden levers behind luxury branding for coaches, the power of the "illusion of scarcity," and the real-world tactics for building an elite personal brand and momentum. They unpack why so many coaches lose the "battle within," what actually works to attract high-end clients, why quality sleep is a business advantage, and concrete ways to overcome the self-promotion struggle. Authentic, actionable, and packed with direct advice, this episode is your roadmap for moving from stuck to standout in your coaching business. Key Topics Covered Luxury Branding and the Illusion of Scarcity Karl Bryan reveals why luxury brands like Rolex, Ferrari, and Louis Vuitton succeed—it's less about their logo and more about perceived scarcity and margins. Tangible tactics for coaches to position themselves as high-value, "hard-to-get" authorities, using the example of a busy calendar and limited client spots. Overcoming the Battle Within Karl Bryan shares mindset frameworks for winning the internal struggle (imposter syndrome, lack of focus) that derails coaches. Why changing your identity—not just your thoughts—is the foundation for lasting transformation. The Science of High Performance: Sleep, Energy & Routine Game-changing advice on tracking sleep and its direct impact on business results. How routines, environment, and sleep discipline make elite performance possible for coaches and clients alike. Building a Magnetic Personal Brand Why so many coaches struggle with self-promotion and the bio trap—and the surprising truth about what really builds trust and reputation online. Step-by-step guidance on creating daily content, showing value, and leveraging both AI and authenticity. Momentum, Discipline, and Consistency How to set activity-based targets (like 25 daily reach-outs) and detach from outcomes to build real momentum. The compounding power of relentless daily action and how skipping days destroys progress—using analogies from Michael Phelps, Tom Brady, and more. Notable Quotes "If you don't believe in your coaching, you won't transfer belief. You can't transfer what you don't already own." – Karl Bryan "You don't want your marketing to be Toyota in a Ferrari world. Illusion of scarcity is a superpower." – Karl Bryan "You can do anything, but you can't do everything. Define what you want—clarity is the cure for being stuck." – Karl Bryan "Sleep is probably the greatest investment you can make—in your life, in your business, everywhere." – Karl Bryan "Trust is built in moments, not your bio. The lurkers are the ones who buy." – Karl Bryan "The only thing harder than building a brand is trying to keep this podcast under 90 minutes." – Karl Bryan Actionable Takeaways Create Scarcity in Your Practice: Limit the number of client spots, show a full calendar, and don't always be available. Position yourself as in demand—even before you're full. Be Activity-Driven: Set daily reach-out targets (like 25 per day). Track activities, not just results, and detach from what you can't control. Invest in Sleep: Build a consistent, high-quality sleep routine. Track your sleep depth and protect your energy as fiercely as your calendar. Build Authority Through Value Moments: Focus social content on authentic "aha" moments, stories, and real solutions instead of just credentials. Leverage AI Wisely: Use tools like ChatGPT to spark and structure social content, but always infuse your unique personality and experiences. Momentum Is Everything: Don't skip days. Small actions, consistently applied, create compounding results. Discipline is the difference-maker. Serve Before You Sell: Offer value openly in your market—through events, free calls, and actionable insights—before expecting a sale. Personal Brand Focus: Don't obsess over your bio or likes; serve, post, and show your expertise. The buyers ("lurkers") are watching. Resources Mentioned Profit Acceleration Software™ (developed by Karl Bryan) – Demonstrates instant value and ROI to prospects. Focus.com – Coaching resources, daily emails, and events. Sleeping Tools: Oura Ring (for tracking sleep and activity). AI Content Creation: ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude—leverage AI for personalized, scalable content. Book: "The Art of War" (for mindset & strategy). Networking: Joint ventures, local live events, and online groups (but focus on being with business owners, not just other coaches).

This episode places market trends, investor behavior, and retirement account considerations into long-term perspective using historical data and widely referenced research. In this episode, you'll hear discussions that: • Define the differences between small-cap, mid-cap, and large-cap stocks and explain how market-capitalization classifications are commonly discussed in retirement planning. • Examine why individual investors have historically experienced returns that differ from market benchmarks, referencing behavioral research frequently cited by DALBAR. • Compare recent performance trends between the S&P 500 and small-cap indexes while reinforcing that market leadership shifts across cycles. • Explain how trillion-dollar companies have reshaped modern definitions of large-cap and mega-cap stocks. • Review the types of investment options typically available in employer-sponsored retirement plans and discuss why chasing recent performance is often identified as a behavioral risk. • Discuss why small-cap equities remain part of long-term market history conversations while acknowledging higher volatility and variability. • Compare Roth IRAs and Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) by outlining differences in tax treatment, eligibility, and planning considerations. • Explain how dividend-focused ETFs are commonly referenced in retirement income discussions and the historical role of dividends in total return. • Reinforce the importance of diversification and disciplined decision-making by addressing behavioral tendencies such as fear of missing out, or FOMO. • Address listener questions on market timing, lump-sum investing, Roth versus traditional 401(k) contributions, and Roth IRAs for younger earners using educational frameworks rather than personalized guidance.

2026 is here, and we are galloping into it with clarity, humor, and a few dragons. We are kicking off the year by sharing what we're letting go of from 2025 (comparison, pressure, scarcity) and what we're calling for in 2026 (creativity, presence, joy, money, and more). Expect Celine Dion skating routines, Stranger Things finale tears, birthday reflections, and a reminder that the blessing of age is knowing what lights you up, and where to give that light back. From travel plans and business expansions to confidence, calendars, and career shifts, this is a joyfully honest look at growth, aging, and the power of knowing yourself.
Earlier this month, Geopolitical Futures released its annual Forecast, which focuses on the most critical changes to the international order in the year to come. One of the featured predictions in this year's Forecast was on the shifting relationship between the United States and China. It is a relationship that GPF Chairman George Friedman believes will define the next generation of international relations. This week on Talking Geopolitics, George joined host Christian Smith to give a preview of this forecast, and we'll even dive into the perplexing logic of Donald Trump's will-he, won't-he attempt to take ownership of Greenland from Denmark, a NATO ally.

Episode 436 | AI and Automation: What Should School Owners Actually Use? Podcast Description AI is everywhere right now—and for a lot of martial arts school owners, it's either exciting—or overwhelming. In Episode 436, Duane Brumitt and Shihan Allie Alberigo cut through the hype and get practical about what AI and automation are actually good for inside a school. They talk about why tech won't fix broken fundamentals, how to audit your numbers before you start building automations, and the real-world use cases that can save you time without turning your school into a “robot school.” Along the way, they share stories from the trenches—including Allie using AI to create a ninja “we miss you” video, using ChatGPT to rewrite a heated parent message into something kind and effective, and why too many automations can create “white noise” that makes families tune you out. Key Takeaways AI and automation are different tools. Automation is “if/then” triggers (texts, emails, reminders). AI is adaptive and conversational (helping with replies, content, and decision support). AI won't fix broken fundamentals. It can't repair a weak offer, unclear schedules, poor culture, or bad sales conversations—but it can improve speed, consistency, and follow-through. Audit before you automate. Track lead response time, booking rate, show-up rate, close rate, and first-90-day retention before you start adding more tech. Speed still wins. When possible, the best move is still personal contact fast—call or text a lead within minutes. Too many automations can backfire. If families get flooded with emails/texts, it becomes “white noise” and they opt out. Use AI to communicate with more care. Allie shares how he used ChatGPT to rewrite a message to a parent (when emotions were high) and it completely changed the outcome. Must-haves first. Automated lead follow-up, scheduling/confirmations, and no-show recovery are the highest ROI automations. Nice-to-haves next. Content help, review requests, and referral prompts can work great once your basics are clean. Don't automate the important stuff. Billing disputes, cancellations, complaints, and emotionally charged conversations need a human. Guardrails matter. Build a voice guide, set rules (tone, language, escalation), and always offer a “talk to a human” option. Action Steps for School Owners Do a quick audit this week. Lead response time (minutes, not hours) Booking rate Show-up rate Close rate First 90-day retention Fix your #1 leak before adding new tools. If your show-up rate is low, focus on confirmations and reminders. If your close rate is low, focus on sales conversations. Let the numbers tell you what to fix. Set up (or clean up) your must-have automations. Instant lead follow-up (text/email) Scheduling + confirmations No-show follow-up + reschedule prompts Audit your existing automations for “white noise.” Check if families are receiving overlapping offers or too many messages. Clean up old tags, old campaigns, and outdated promos. Use AI as your “calm-down coach” for tough messages. Before you hit send on a heated reply, paste it into ChatGPT and ask: “Rewrite this in a loving, compassionate, clear way.” Build an FAQ/onboarding library to reduce repetitive questions. Put your most common questions in one place (website/app/videos): uniforms, promotions, how early to arrive, what to expect, etc. Create a simple weekly stats habit. Start small: trials booked, trials showed, enrollments, and which program they chose. Then build from there. Set guardrails so you don't become a “robot school.” Create a voice guide (phrases you use/never use) Define when a human takes over (complaints, cancellations, billing, pricing) Always offer a human option Additional Resources Mentioned Spark Membership Software (automations, follow-up, reporting) LeadHunter Media (lead follow-up + AI texting support) Notion (used to track automations and systems) Upstream by Dan Heath (the “stop rescuing people downstream” story) Atomic Habits by James Clear Everybody Matters (mentioned as a book Duane is filtering through AI) Dan Sullivan (concept: “I always have a person between me and the technology”) If you enjoyed the episode, please subscribe, leave a review, and share it with another school owner. And remember: AI should give you more freedom—not more work.

Real talk.If staying disciplined has ever meant running yourself into the ground, shaming yourself into productivity, or pushing past your own limits just to stay “consistent”… that was never discipline. That was survival mode trying to sound supportive.We're redefining discipline for women who want consistency without burnout. We're talking calm execution over forced hustle, nervous-system-safe discipline, and what it actually looks like to keep promises to yourself without betraying who you are.This conversation is for the woman who's done proving, done pushing, and ready to move in alignment with the season she's in. You don't need more pressure — you need a steadier way to show up.WHAT WE GET INTO✨ Burnout has patterns. You already know what it looks like when it's brewing — the work is noticing it sooner.

Originally published in 2021, I'm replaying this remarkable interview in solidarity with the courageous women of Iran and to offer you historical context for the protests unfolding today. Retired preschool teacher Mitra Jordan reflects on the life and legacy of her mother, Sattareh Farman Farmaian - widely regarded as the mother of social work in Iran and author of Daughter of Persia (highly recommended). Sattareh was raised in a royal harem as one of 36 children born to the ruling prince of the Qajar dynasty. She earned a degree in sociology from the University of Southern California, worked for the United Nations in Iraq, and then returned to Iran to found the country's first school of social work. Under her leadership, the school flourished, training hundreds of social workers and launching programs in family planning, women's education, and orphan care, with strong support from Farah Diba, wife of Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi. In 1979, the Islamic Revolution led by Ayatollah Khomeini forced Sattareh, at age 58, to abandon her life's work and flee Iran. She rebuilt her career in the United States, passing her exams and becoming a practicing social worker in Los Angeles. Mitra shares the lessons her mother lived by: the importance of education and self-reliance, the courage to follow one's own path, the refusal to be defined by your circumstances, and the often-overlooked mental benefits of physical exercise.

What if you could validate your side business idea and earn your first $10,000 before building a website or content empire? In this practical solo episode, host Dr. Mike Woo-Ming draws from his entrepreneurial experience to guide physicians away from common pitfalls like overcomplicating launches with unnecessary infrastructure. He explains the "credentialing mindset" that holds doctors back and advocates for a minimum viable test: Define a specific audience and transformation, run a free webinar with a framework and offer, and promote it via your existing network. Real examples, including his own $32,000 validation for Bootstrap MD, illustrate how to iterate based on results. Whether you're eyeing telemedicine, coaching, or consulting, discover how to get paid customers in 30 days without burnout or perfectionism. If you're a physician entrepreneur ready to test ideas leanly, this episode provides a clear 30-day plan for validation, pivoting, and scaling with confidence. Three Actionable Takeaways: Define your MVP offer: Identify a specific target audience,for example, hospitalists launching telemedicine, promise a measurable transformation (e.g., see your first 5 patients in 90 days), and set a price, focus on implementation support like coaching or cohorts. Run a test webinar: Create a simple landing page, outline 30-45 minutes of framework content (what/why, not how), promote to 50 network contacts via personal messages and LinkedIn, and make your offer in the last 10-15 minutes. Analyze and iterate: Track attendance, questions, and conversions; if buyers emerge, deliver and refine; if not, interview attendees for feedback, adjust variables (audience, promise, price), and retest in 1-2 weeks to validate before building infrastructure.
