Salut l'équipe ✌ Dans cet épisode, nous plongeons dans Full Contact (Lionheart), l'un des films les plus émouvants de Jean-Claude Van Damme, réalisé par Sheldon Lettich. Ce film marque une étape importante dans la carrière de JCVD, dépassant le simple cadre des arts martiaux pour explorer des thèmes profonds tels que la loyauté, le sacrifice et la rédemption. L'histoire suit Lyon Gaultier, un légionnaire français qui déserte pour venir en aide à sa famille aux États-Unis. Sans ressources, il s'engage dans des combats clandestins pour subvenir aux besoins de sa famille. Van Damme livre ici une performance remarquable, alliant intensité physique et vulnérabilité émotionnelle. C'est un film qui mérite d'être redécouvert, non seulement pour ses scènes de combat impressionnantes mais aussi pour la sensibilité et la profondeur de ses personnages. Une musique signée John Scott, aux nappes synthétiques et mélodies suspendues. C'est une BO qui ne cherche pas l'épique, mais l'intime. Et quiconque l'écoute aujourd'hui, surtout s'il l'a entendue enfant, ressent immédiatement ce mélange de mélancolie et de courage. Full Contact n'est pas un simple film de baston 90s, mais un drame social musclé, une quête d'identité, un film de famille et de fraternité.

On this episode of Nemo Radio, I'm sharing one of the biggest insights I've discovered from generating leads on LinkedIn since 2012 - one that's literally worth millions in revenue!What's fascinating is that while most business owners are obsessed with "quick wins" on LinkedIn (which absolutely do happen), they're completely missing the "long game" strategy that delivers the REAL payoff.In this episode, I'll share a recent example where a franchise consultant client of ours closed a five-figure deal with a prospect we'd been nurturing for TWO YEARS on LinkedIn.This isn't an isolated case, either - I've personally seen this pattern repeat countless times across industries.What You'll Discover:

CULTIVATING SAINTS, SAGES, AND STATESMEN THROUGH THE GREAT TRADITION OF CHRISTENDOMIn this episode, Joshua Charles unveils how he concluded—even while he was still a protestant—that "sola scriptura" (or "Scripture alone") was a false doctrine.He explains how he reached this conclusion in two primary ways: he recognized "sola scriptura" was both logically incoherent, and inconsistent with the sacred history recounted in the Bible itself.To his shock and amazement, his intuitions were ultimately confirmed by a famous and well-respected protestant teacher and theologian who advocated "sola scriptura."VISIT OUR WEBSITEhttps://eternalchristendom.com/BECOME A PATRON OF THE GREAT TRADITIONHelp us continue to dig into the Great Tradition; produce beautiful, substantive content; and gift these treasures to cultural orphans around the world for free:https://eternalchristendom.com/become-a-patron/Have your patronage DOUBLED thanks to a generous $50,000 matching gift from a patron:https://donorbox.org/eternal-christendom-double-your-impactEXCLUSIVE DISCOUNTS AT ETERNAL CHRISTENDOM BOOKSTOREhttps://eternalchristendom.com/bookstore/CONNECT ON SOCIAL MEDIAX: https://twitter.com/JoshuaTCharlesFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/joshuatcharles/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/joshuatcharles/DIVE DEEPERCheck out Eternal Christendom's "Becoming Catholic," where you'll find hundreds of thousands of words of free content (as big as the Bible!) in the form of Articles, Quote Archives, and Study Banks to help you become, remain, and deepen your life as a Catholic:https://eternalchristendom.com/becoming-catholic/EPISODE CHAPTERS00:00 - Introduction03:45 - The Right Definition of "Sola Scriptura"07:59 - Objection 1: Logically Incoherent12:01 - Objection 2: Inconsistent with Sacred History20:25 - My Intuitions Confirmed by a Protestant (RC Sproul)40:17 - ConclusionLISTEN ON APPLEhttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/eternal-christendom-podcast/id1725000526LISTEN ON SPOTIFYhttps://open.spotify.com/show/3HoTTco6oJtApc21ggVevu
On this episode of Nemo Radio, I'm sharing powerful sales psychology secrets that completely transformed my approach to handling objections - and help me scale to 7 figures in revenue as a result.After logging countless hours in the sales chair over the past decade, I've discovered that most objections aren't really about the surface-level reasons people give you.When a prospect says "I'll hire you once I make more money" or "I need to talk to my spouse first," there's almost always something deeper going on.During this episode, I'll reveal the specific psychological techniques I use to get past these initial "no" responses - without ever coming across as pushy or aggressive.I'll also share a (painful!) personal story about how I lost $45,000 USD on Facebook ads and what this taught me about handling objections around risk and guarantees.What You'll Discover:

CULTIVATING SAINTS, SAGES, AND STATESMEN THROUGH THE GREAT TRADITION OF CHRISTENDOMIn Part 1 of this fascinating interview, Catholic theologian and historian Dr. Alan Fimister defends this provocative assertion: the Church founded by Jesus Christ is Roman, in some mysterious sense prophesied in the Old, and fulfilled in the New Testament. The implications are astounding, not only in terms of how we understand the past, but the present, as well as the future history of the world.Be on the lookout for Part 2 of this interview, where we will cover the eschatological ("end times") implications of Dr. Fimister's thesis.Purchase Dr. Fimister's "The Iron Sceptre of the Son of Man: Romanitas as a Note of the Church" with an Eternal Christendom exclusive discount through Os Justi Press at our Bookstore:https://eternalchristendom.com/bookstore/Dr. Fimister is a member of Eternal Christendom's esteemed Advisory Board:https://eternalchristendom.com/advisory-board/VISIT OUR WEBSITEhttps://eternalchristendom.com/BECOME A PATRON OF THE GREAT TRADITIONHelp us continue to dig into the Great Tradition; produce beautiful, substantive content; and gift these treasures to cultural orphans around the world for free:https://eternalchristendom.com/become-a-patron/Have your patronage DOUBLED thanks to a generous $50,000 matching gift from a patron:https://donorbox.org/eternal-christendom-double-your-impactEXCLUSIVE DISCOUNTS AT ETERNAL CHRISTENDOM BOOKSTOREhttps://eternalchristendom.com/bookstore/CONNECT ON SOCIAL MEDIAX: https://twitter.com/JoshuaTCharlesFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/joshuatcharles/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/joshuatcharles/DIVE DEEPERCheck out Eternal Christendom's "Becoming Catholic," where you'll find hundreds of thousands of words of free content (as big as the Bible!) in the form of Articles, Quote Archives, and Study Banks to help you become, remain, and deepen your life as a Catholic:https://eternalchristendom.com/becoming-catholic/LISTEN ON APPLEhttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/eternal-christendom-podcast/id1725000526LISTEN ON SPOTIFYhttps://open.spotify.com/show/3HoTTco6oJtApc21ggVevu

Shifting from Cold Calling to Digital Marketing If your primary source of leads is through cold-calling, would you consider shifting to digital marketing? Justis realized the benefits of doing so, as cold-calling usually limits him to reaching 100 people a day, but with digital content, he can demonstrate their subject matter expertise to thousands. “So we started posting content online. And instead of going from one to one cold calling, it's one to many: one to 1,000, one to 10,000, one to 20,000 plus people. So what you're doing is you're actually just demonstrating what your subject matter expertise is. Instead of on the phone to people that already know you, you're doing it online to a larger population of people that do not know you.” How did they transition from pure cold calling to digital marketing? When Justis first started at Hayes and later running his own recruitment business, it was all about cold calling. But like a lot of recruiters, he hit that point of burnout. You can only hear “no” so many times before you start asking, Is there a better way to do this? They began putting their expertise online, mainly on LinkedIn, aiming to reach not just dozens, but thousands. Then came the big move: hiring Cass in 2022 as their first team member, not another recruiter, but a full-time content and social media manager. Instead of hiring another 360 recruiter, Justis placed his bet on the potential of digital marketing. Eventually, it paid off. They started producing all kinds of content—videos, thought pieces, scroll-stopping visuals—all tailored to their niche in construction and real estate. And people started paying attention—not just candidates but clients, too. Inbound leads started rolling in. The ROI of Hiring an Effective Marketing Person Was there a return on investment from the step that Justis took? That is, focusing mainly on being top-of-mind via digital content? There was! “To quantify that, when I first hired Cass in our first year, we did about, I think it was about $500,000… And in our second year after hiring Cass, we did closer to a million. So, just simple numbers there. Like, we almost doubled our billings.” Justis, however, reminded us that hiring an effective marketing person is not an instant result-generating move. You also have to invest time, like what she did with Cass. He spent at least a year working with her, and it took almost two years to see actual results. “But it did take like a lot of time to get there. Mark, I don't want your listeners to think like, oh, you hire a marketing person and 30 days later you're going to be getting all these inbound leads, because that's not how it works. And a lot of people are wired to think, you know, 30, 60, 90-day return. But this was something that happened for two years. Not 30 or 60, 90 days. Like when I hired Cas, the idea was, okay, we'll give it a year and see how it does.” The Three Pillars of Content and How to Start For Justis, there are three pillars of a well-curated, quality content: Graphic Design Video Writing Justis elaborated on these three pillars and how they emphasized the importance of writing as the basis of videos and graphic designs. He also shared strategies on posting at least 4 pieces of content a week, and why spreading too thin on different social media platforms may not always work. He also shared that to start and build a brand, you don't even need a high budget. Justis shared, “But I think what I would say is it doesn't have to be an extremely high-budget effort. Like you can do this with a low budget effort.” Justis Pederson Bio and Contact Info Justis is an award-winning recruiter as well as President & CEO of the Pederson Group of Companies.
