From Sheepskin Boots to Billion-Dollar Success with Brian Smith DealQuest Community, I am so grateful to each of you for allowing the DealQuest Podcast to grow over the last few years. We've had so many incredible guests since day one, and we've learned a lot along the way. This is why I've chosen to remaster many of our older episodes into new life… And what better way to do that than with the story of Brian Smith, Founder of the internationally icon brand UGG®? Brian is so much more than his UGG® brand, however — he is the entrepreneurial success story. A SURFING DREAM INTO A REALITY While surfing in California, it struck Brian that there was a notable absence of easily accessible sheepskin boots in the United States. This led to his first deal with an Australian manufacturer, despite initial reluctance. Luck played a significant role in sealing this pivotal deal. His vision was to create a brand that every American would eventually embrace. With the manufacturer lined up, Brian and a friend realized they needed capital to buy 500 pairs of boots as samples. A fortunate encounter with a roommate's office colleagues resulted in a $20,000 investment, equivalent to about $70,000 today. This investment set the stage for UGG®'s initial business operations. LUCK DOESN'T MEAN EASY The road to success was far from smooth. In the early days, retailers in California were hesitant to embrace sheepskin boots. Despite having high hopes for sales, they encountered resistance. Brian highlights a valuable lesson: Everyone may show interest in your idea… until it's time to make a commitment. The initial capital they raised lasted a couple of years, but the company struggled to gain traction. When they ran out of money, Brian decided to bring in another investor, diluting their ownership from 50% to 25%. This infusion of cash allowed them to keep the business afloat. Brian's resilience shone through during these challenging times. He continued to work tirelessly, building the UGG brand one sale at a time. His ability to adapt, pivot, and find creative solutions was instrumental in his journey. AUTHENTICITY IN ENTREPRENEURSHIP Throughout his story, Brian emphasizes the importance of listening to one's inner wisdom and staying true to oneself, even when faced with seemingly insurmountable challenges. Here are key lessons for authenticity in entrepreneurship: * Different Objectives, Not Bad Intentions: In negotiations, diverse objectives reflect varying goals and perspectives, rather than indicating bad intentions. Recognizing this is crucial for trust-building in business relationships. * The Power of Customer Loyalty: Brian's customers' unwavering loyalty, even in the face of counterfeit products, highlights the importance of exceptional customer service and authentic connections. * Staying the Course Amid Challenges: Brian's persistence and belief in UGG® boots' potential kept him going through challenging moments, showcasing the resolve of authentic entrepreneurs. * Trusting Your Inner Wisdom: Brian relied on his inner wisdom, accessed through meditation, for pivotal decisions in his entrepreneurial journey. * Authenticity as a Guiding Principle: Authenticity isn't a buzzword for Brian; it's a guiding principle that shapes his product, brand, and relationships with partners and customers. Brian Smith's entrepreneurial journey is a testament to the transformative power of authenticity and trust. By staying true to his vision, trusting his inner wisdom, and forging genuine connections, he transformed a simple idea into a globally recognized brand. His story serves as an inspiration for aspiring entrepreneurs and a reminder that authenticity and trust are the cornerstones of long-lasting success in any business venture. Trust your inner wisdom, stay authentic, and let it guide you on your entrepreneurial journey.

  Let's tackle the elephant in the room for aspiring writers: the daunting odds of success in the writing world. Many use this as an excuse to abandon their dreams, citing the challenges, rejections, and the seemingly improbable nature of making it as a writer. But here's the reality check: amid these odds, some authors thrive and succeed, proving it is possible. It's essential to dispel the myth of overnight success and sheer luck. Success in writing, whether through traditional publishing or self-publishing, demands hard work, sacrifice, dedication, continuous improvement, and strategic efforts. Some frustrated writers point at successful authors and chalk up their success to "luck." Luck, in this context, is the result of preparation meeting opportunity. In this week's episode of the 'How to Be an Author' podcast, we'll delve into the strategies to tilt luck in your favor. My course, 'From Idea to Published in 6 Months,' offers the blueprint that has secured publishing deals, contest wins, media features, and viral social media success for my clients. It's time to shift the narrative and understand that you don't want to be an average writer. And here's the exciting twist: in crafting narratives, we, as writers, need to realize that readers thrive on the idea of insurmountable odds. When we instill our characters with low chances of success, we create depth, urgency, and a human story that resonates with readers.  In today's episode of the How to be an Author podcast with writing coach Karena Akhavein, we're diving into the fascinating question of the odds of success for writers and the art of crafting your own luck in the fiercely competitive world of publishing.  Get ready for a deep dive into the psychology of writing, as we share invaluable insights on writing success. Whether you're a seasoned wordsmith or just starting your literary adventure, this episode is a must-listen for anyone eager to unlock the secrets of becoming a successful author.

During the holiday season, there are more occasions and opportunities to drink alcohol. So, it's worth noting that not all drinks are created equal when it comes to how they affect you. This episode begins with some interesting information about the differences between beer, wine and hard liquor that could have a definite impact on you and how you feel the next morning. https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/j.1530-0277.2006.00190.x Are people born lucky? Or unlucky? What is it about some people that causes them to appear to be lucky a lot of the time? Here to explore the topic of luck is Richard Wiseman. He is one of the top researchers on the science of luck and author of the book, The Luck Factor (https://amzn.to/3EMLy6r). Richard is here to explain what makes lucky people lucky and how we might attract more luck. It's not magic – it's all in how you think. How can some people actually believe the earth is flat – and still others believe it is hollow? Some people believe we never landed on the moon – it was all a hoax. Still others are convinced that aliens walk among us. What causes people to believe what seems like nonsense to most of us? That's why you will want to listen to my guest, Donald Prothero. Donald is a geology professor who has taught at Caltech, Columbia, and elsewhere and he is author of a book called Weird Earth: Debunking Strange Ideas about Our Planet (https://amzn.to/3GOsTc9). Listen to hear his explanation as to why some people cling to what appear to be very odd beliefs and why the problem appears to be growing.  Do you know what the word quantum actually means?

The past several years have seen consequential changes for NCAA schools and their athletes: the introduction of name, image, and likeness rules; the establishment of the transfer portal; and the realignment of the conferences in which all major college teams and athletes compete—and critically, the distribution of the TV monies the conferences generate. To guide us through this sea change, we drafted two of the most knowledgeable people in sports: former US secretary of state, current director of the Hoover Institution, co-owner of the Denver Broncos, and most recently, special advisor on athletics to the president of Stanford University (more on what that means in the show) Condoleezza Rice; and former Stanford and Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck (also the number-one pick in the 2012 NFL draft). Together, Rice and Luck explain the new terrain of college athletics, how it affects every sport played in the academic realm, what it means for both the Olympics and pro sports, and most importantly, how it will change the lives of college athletes.
