Free Magic Words for Prospecting audios Master the Four Core Skills 

Here's a question I get asked all the time: What's the single biggest misconception holding salespeople back? That question came from a room full of college students at BYU-Idaho, ages 19 to 24, all exploring sales careers. And my answer is the same whether you're just starting out or you've been in the game for decades. The biggest lie about selling is this: Good salespeople have the gift of gab. You know the stereotype. The smooth talker. The fast-talking closer. The person who can talk their way into or out of anything. We've all seen it in movies, TV shows, and plays like Death of a Salesman. It's been around for a century, and it's completely wrong. The Truth Top Performers Know Here's what the best salespeople actually do: They listen. The greatest salespeople aren't the best talkers. They're the best listeners. They're individuals who know how to ask the right questions and know how to ask questions in a way that create these aha moments for prospects and customers. They understand something fundamental that average performers miss: Closing happens in the discovery process, not at some magical point where you lay the hammer down and ask for a sale. Think about that for a second. The deal isn't won when you deliver your polished presentation. It's not won when you overcome the final objection. It's won in those early conversations when you're asking questions, uncovering pain, and building relationships. Why the Stereotype Persists The negative stereotype of salespeople has been pervasive in society for generations. Part of it's because no one really likes to be sold. And there are salespeople who are bad. They talk at people instead of actually taking the time to listen. But here's the reality: Lots of professions have negative stereotypes. Lawyers. Politicians. Salespeople aren't the worst of them. And here's the good side of that negative stereotype: Nobody wants to be in sales. So if you're in sales, you're making a whole lot more money than anybody else. That's a good thing. The people who look at the profession of selling and say "I could never do that" or "I could never interrupt people or take that type of rejection" are the same people who will never experience the income, freedom, and impact that comes with being great at sales. The Power of Questions When you shift your mindset from talking to listening, everything changes. Instead of thinking about what you're going to say next, you're focused on what your prospect is telling you. You're asking questions like: What's driving this decision right now? What happens if you don't solve this problem? Who else is involved in this decision? What does success look like for you? These aren't manipulative tricks. They're genuine attempts to understand your prospect's world, their challenges, and their goals. And when you do that well, you create trust. You build relationships. You position yourself as a partner, not a vendor. The discovery questions you ask matter more than any pitch you could ever deliver. Handling objections starts with asking the right questions early in the process. Who's Really in Control Here's the truth: The person in control of the conversation is rarely the talker. In fact, it's almost always the listener. If you want to move deals, stop performing and start discovering. Build your calls around three things: smart opening questions, deep follow-ups, and crisp advances to the next step. You'll gain insights, not just air time. And insights are what close deals. Success in sales isn't about being the loudest voice in the room. It's about being the most curious, the most engaged, and the most intentional about moving the sale forward. What You Need to Unlearn Right Now If you've been operating under the assumption that you need to be a great talker to succeed in sales, unlearn that immediately. Replace it with this truth: You need to be a great asker and an even better listener. Your job isn't to convince people. Your job is to help people convince themselves by asking questions that lead them to their own conclusions. When prospects discover the solution themselves through your questioning, they own it. They believe it. And they buy. That's the relationship you build through asking questions. That matters the most. The Bottom Line Stop trying to out-talk your prospects. Stop preparing 47-slide presentations. Stop thinking that your job is to educate and inform. Your job is to discover. To listen. To understand. To ask the questions that help your prospects see clearly what they need to do next. The best salespeople aren't the smooth talkers. They're the smart listeners who know that the power of the sale is in the questions they ask, not the words they say. If you master this one fundamental truth, you'll close more deals than all the gift-of-gab salespeople combined. And you'll build a career based on relationships, trust, and value instead of pressure, manipulation, and empty talk. That's how you win in sales. That's how you build lasting customer relationships. And that's how you separate yourself from everyone else who's still chasing the lie. Ready to Master the Art of Prospecting?

What happens when you invest so deeply in your people that they could leave today and find success starting their own business?The most likely outcome: they stay and you continue growing together.But the more common path: a more transactional approach for fear they'll leave you.Jon Cheplak returns to Real Estate Team OS to explain why he thinks 90% of real estate team leaders shouldn't be team leaders and to share what the 10% have in common.Jon's been in the seat himself and he and his partners coach top-performing team leaders and operations leaders (many you've met here on the show).Scaling on principles, rather than on personality.Pouring into people without fear, limitation, or calculation.Developing people first and businesses second.Walking the talk as the key to leadership.Improving your copywriting and storytelling.Jon shares all that and more in a great conversation to set you up for a successful year ahead.Watch or listen for Jon's insights into:Why community is so desirable and powerful right nowHow principles scale and why personality doesn'tHis four core principles, his eight core values, and the difference between themThe three ways to get people to take actionThe two ways to give people attention and why fear holds team leaders back from bothWhy 90% of team leaders shouldn't be team leaders and four criteria to help you know for your yourselfTwo ways to find your operations leader and one way NOT to (spoiler: look inside your team)Why you're already a better copywriter than you think, how and why to get better at it, plus the difference between marketing and salesAt the end, learn about pitchforking manure and the risk and payoff of committing to a 375-acre ranch.Four principles Jon lives by:→ Personal responsibility, accountability, commitment, contributionEight values Jon lives by:→ Fun, love, dignity, respect, humility, vulnerability, transparency, volunteerismMentioned in this episode:→ FUBCON Session with Jon Cheplak https://www.realestateteamos.com/episode/jon-cheplak-real-estate-teams-traditional-brokerages→ 084 Living in the Leads with Lauren Bowen https://www.realestateteamos.com/episode/real-estate-leads-systems-tools-increase-conversion-lauren-bowen-lpt-realty→ 037 Prospecting for Listings with Greg Harrelson https://www.realestateteamos.com/episode/real-estate-prospecting-listings-greg-harrelson→ 082 Making Your First Operations Hire with Camila Rivera https://www.realestateteamos.com/episode/team-leader-guide-making-your-first-operations-hire-camila-rivera→ Inside Whissel Realty Group https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLCJiXNo93cVqQmwl4tTOQYebBkBoL6ipzConnect with Jon Cheplak→ https://www.facebook.com/joncheplak/Connect with Real Estate Team OS→ https://www.realestateteamos.com→ https://linktr.ee/realestateteamos→ https://www.instagram.com/realestateteamos/

You declined another prospecting block today, didn't you? That internal meeting popped up. Someone needed "just five minutes." Your CRM screamed for attention. Before you knew it, another day passed without a single cold call, without one new connection request, without moving the needle on your pipeline. But hey, at least your calendar looked impressively full. Here's what nobody wants to admit: your jam-packed calendar isn't proof that you're too busy to prospect. It's proof you've made prospecting optional. And optional activities don't close deals or pay commissions. The Meeting Excuse Is Killing Your Pipeline Sales professionals love to point at their calendars as evidence of why they can't prospect. Look at all these internal meetings. See how packed my schedule is. How could I possibly find time for outbound activity? The real question is: when did you last decline an internal meeting to protect your prospecting time? Most salespeople never have. They treat every meeting invitation as a welcome escape from the discomfort of cold outreach. It's the perfect alibi when your manager asks about pipeline activity. But your calendar tells the truth about your priorities. If time blocking for prospecting isn't on it, prospecting isn't actually a priority. And if prospecting isn't a priority, why exactly are you in sales? You Don't Need Hours—You Need 15 Minutes The biggest lie salespeople tell themselves is that prospecting requires massive blocks of uninterrupted time. Two hours minimum. Otherwise, why bother starting? This is the same mental trap that keeps people from reading, exercising, or learning new skills. They convince themselves that 15 minutes isn't enough to matter, so they do nothing instead. Consider this: reading for 15 minutes daily gets you through 20-25 books per year. Walking for 15 minutes adds nearly a mile to your day. Fifteen minutes of focused prospecting can generate six to ten cold calls, dozens of personalized connection requests, or several high-impact video messages to ghosting prospects. The power isn't in the duration, but in consistent, focused execution of time blocking for sales activities. The 15-Minute Power Block Rules These 3 rules are requirements if you want your time blocking strategy to actually work. Rule 1: Single-task only.  Your 15-minute prospecting block is for prospecting. Not prospecting while monitoring email. Not prospecting between Slack messages. Just prospecting. If you spend three minutes calling and twelve minutes scrolling Instagram, you didn't prospect for 15 minutes. Rule 2: Everything else can wait. Yes, that includes your boss. You will not lose a customer or your job because you ignored email for 15 minutes. Responding at the end of your block is still professional. Think about it—if you were sitting face-to-face with your top client, would you stop mid-conversation to check email? Treat your power blocks with the same respect. Rule 3: Protect the block like your commission depends on it. Because it does. Top performers don't ask permission to prospect. They schedule it, block it, and defend it against every interruption. The coworker who needs "just a minute" can wait sixteen minutes. What Actually Happens in 15 Minutes Specificity kills procrastination. You're more likely to execute when you know exactly what you're doing during your time blocking windows. Eight to fifteen cold calls fit comfortably in 15 minutes. That's enough to connect with two or three decision-makers if you're efficient. Send ten to fifteen LinkedIn connection requests to stakeholders outside your network. Write and mail three handwritten notes to accounts you closed this month. Record personalized video messages for three prospects who've gone dark. None of these activities requires elaborate preparation or perfect conditions. They require you to show up for 15 minutes and do the work. That's it. Schedule Your Priorities or Someone Else Will Stephen Covey said the key isn't prioritizing your schedule, but scheduling your priorities. Most salespeople do the opposite—they let their calendars fill with whatever lands there first, then wonder why revenue-generating work never happens. Your calendar should reflect your income goals. If hitting quota requires consistent prospecting, your calendar should show consistent prospecting blocks. If building relationships with key accounts matters, those touchpoints should be scheduled. When you schedule your sales priorities first, everything else fits around them. When you don't, everything else crowds them out entirely. Look at your calendar right now. How many prospecting blocks do you see this week? If the answer is zero, you've just identified why your pipeline feels thin. How to Apply Time Blocking Starting Now Open your calendar and block three 15-minute windows for prospecting tomorrow. Morning, midday, and late afternoon. Label them "Prospecting Power Block" and set them as busy. Before each block, decide on one specific activity: cold calls, LinkedIn outreach, video messages, or handwritten notes. Don't try to do multiple things. Pick one and execute for the full 15 minutes. Close your email, silence your phone. For 15 minutes, nothing else exists except the activity you committed to. When the timer ends, return to everything else. Track your blocks for one week. Count how many you actually protected versus how many got sacrificed to "urgent" requests. This data will reveal whether you're serious about prospecting or just pretending to be. Make Time or Make Excuses—You Can't Do Both Top performers don't wait for the perfect time to prospect. They don't need two-hour windows or complete silence or ideal conditions. They make the time, even when it's just 15 minutes. Especially when it's just 15 minutes. That 15-minute window you're dismissing as too small? It could be the first conversation with your biggest account next quarter. It could be the connection that leads to your highest commission check. It could be the breakthrough that turns a struggling month into a record-breaker. But only if you actually protect it. Only if you treat time blocking for prospecting as non-negotiable. Only if you stop letting your calendar lie to you about why you're not doing the work. Your pipeline doesn't care how busy you looked today. It cares about the calls you made, the emails you sent, and the relationships you built. Fifteen focused minutes at a time. Stop letting busy work crowd out revenue-generating activities.

Air Date - 17 December 2025Join Host Marc Lainhart – The Intuitive Prospector™ this Wisdom Wednesday as he discusses his perspectives, ideas, and psychic forecasts for future intelligence during the second half of our roaring twenties of transformation. Artificial Intelligence (AI), Superintelligence (SI), and Machine Learning (ML) are rapidly transforming the landscape of human interactions and our understanding of consciousness. As AI systems become more sophisticated, they are increasingly capable of understanding and responding to human emotions and behaviors, fostering deeper connections and collaboration. This evolution could lead to enhanced communication, empathy, and problem-solving capabilities between humans and machines. However, as we integrate these technologies into our lives, we must also grapple with ethical considerations and the potential impact on our own evolution. The quest for true consciousness in AI remains a philosophical and scientific challenge, prompting us to reflect on what it means to be human in an age where our creations may one day surpass us. Balancing innovation with ethical stewardship will be crucial as we navigate this uncharted territory.“The creation of machine intelligence is likely to be a once-in-a-planet's-lifetime event. It is a future we humans face together. Our aim is to build a broad community with the expertise and sense of common purpose to make this future the best it can be.” -Professor Stephen HawkingPlease join us for another inspiring, encouraging, educational, healing, motivational, and transformational show! “Prospecting to discover the diamond within and the many hidden gems all around us!”#AI #InspiredLiving #MarcLainhart #InterviewsVisit the Inspired Living show page https://omtimes.com/iom/shows/inspired-living-radio/Connect with Marc Lainhart at http://www.marclainhart.com/Subscribe to our Newsletter https://omtimes.com/subscribe-omtimes-magazineConnect with OMTimes on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/Omtimes.Magazine/ and OMTimes Radio https://www.facebook.com/ConsciousRadiowebtv.OMTimes/Twitter: https://twitter.com/OmTimes/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/omtimes/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/2798417/Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/omtimes/

Why Great Speakers Stay Broke SUMMARYIn this episode, John addresses the challenges faced by speakers and coaches in gaining visibility and securing bookings. He emphasises the importance of marketing and the need for professionals in these fields to shift their identity from being just a performer to becoming a business owner. By focusing on marketing, networking, and consistent visibility, speakers and coaches can improve their chances of success. John also discusses the significance of setting clear goals and taking actionable steps to achieve them, urging listeners to treat their speaking or coaching endeavours as a business.The LinkedIn Article: READ HEREKey TakeawaysMany talented speakers and coaches struggle to get bookings.Skill alone is not enough; marketing is crucial.Successful individuals take action before they feel ready.Recognition comes to those who actively seek it.Being known is more important than being the best.The best speakers often excel at running a business.Identity shift is foundational for success.Spend at least half your time on marketing activities.Set clear revenue goals and reverse engineer them.Treat your speaking or coaching as a business.Sound bites"Your identity shift is not optional.""Prospecting should be a daily activity.""Now's the time to start taking action."CHAPTERS00:00 The Pain Point of Speakers and Coaches02:28 The Importance of Marketing in Speaking05:05 Identity Shift: From Speaker to Business Owner07:44 Setting Goals and Taking Action10:13 Call to Action and Future Insights11:41 CloseVisit presentinfluence.com/quiz to take the Speaker Radiance Quiz and discover your Charisma Quotient.

YouTube for Real Estate changed everything for this couple, and they didn't even start until their late 50s.In this video, I sit down with Stephan and Leslie Gleason to talk about how they used YouTube, Passive Prospecting, and simple real estate videos to build a thriving real estate business in a brand-new market. They didn't know anyone. They didn't have a big sphere. And today, they are the most watched real estate YouTube channel in their area, closing multiple six figures in commissions without Zillow, cold calls, or door knocking.If you've ever wondered whether YouTube for Real Estate actually works, especially in a small market or later in life, this conversation will open your eyes. We talk about what made their channel stand out, how they got their first phone call just days after posting, and why YouTube leads are so different from traditional real estate leads. They share what types of videos worked best, how often they post, and how being real and consistent helped people trust them before ever picking up the phone.This is a real, honest look at how Passive Prospecting works in the real world. No hype. No shortcuts. Just clear proof that YouTube can still work for real estate agents who are willing to follow a proven process and stick with it. If you're thinking about starting YouTube for Real Estate or wondering if it's too late, this video is for you.If you're interested in learning more about YouTube for real estate, we'd love to show you how to build a Passive Prospecting lead-generating machine using YouTube for real estate! The best way to start is to grab a free copy of the book as my gift to you. ======

In this episode of The Brian Icenhower Podcast, Brian reveals why prospecting-heavy real estate teams often get stuck in the “death zone.” Many team leaders build their growth strategy around strict outbound prospecting—expired listings, FSBO calls, circle prospecting, and internet leads. While these systems work well for new and low-producing agents, they rarely help a team scale to the next level. Brian explains how these structures can lead to: High turnover rates among agents who burn out from constant prospecting. Limited scalability because top producers resist rigid prospecting quotas. Reputation challenges that make it harder to attract established, influential agents. Most importantly, Brian offers proven strategies to help small teams break through and grow sustainably. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why the “death zone” traps so many small real estate teams. How strict accountability around daily prospecting can limit long-term growth. The importance of creating pathways for agents to earn business from their sphere of influence (SOI). How adjusting commission structures can attract and retain top producers. Why balancing systems with flexibility builds reputation and social proof in your market. Key Takeaway If you want your real estate team to grow beyond a small group of hungry prospectors, you need systems that serve both new agents and seasoned top producers. By rewarding SOI business, loosening rigid standards for high performers, and building a culture that attracts—not repels—experienced agents, you'll create the foundation for sustainable, long-term growth.

He introduces his Unstoppable Sales Method and Prospecting System, explains the power of “value assets,” and shares practical strategies for connecting with modern buyers across multiple channels.

In this episode, Bart sits down with Sara Murray, founder & CEO of Murmaid International, sales trainer, keynote speaker, and host of Prospecting on Purpose. This conversation explores Sara's journey from corporate to entrepreneur, her “ABAV” philosophy (Always Be Adding Value), the mindset behind confidence, abundance, and authentic connection, and the simple human behaviors that create massive business impact.Sara shares candid stories about positivity, self-belief, gratitude, and what happens when you consistently show up as someone who notices, connects, and overdelivers.Major Takeaways / Learnings“Always Be Adding Value” (ABAV) is the game-changerSara's foundational philosophy: every interaction is a chance to make an emotional deposit. Add value before you ask. Add value even when you don't need anything. Add value when it costs nothing. This is what builds reputation, trust, and opportunity.Confidence isn't arrogance, it's earned through actionSara teaches how to “jump up on the pedestal” instead of shrinking in front of high-value clients. Confidence is built by collecting experiences, learning from people, and trusting your strengths.Abundance > ScarcityEven in competitive industries, there's more than enough success to go around. Sara and Bart connect over the idea that generosity creates momentum. When you give without expectations, the world opens up.Sales isn't pushing, it's helpingIf your product or service genuinely improves someone's business or life, then outreach isn't “bothering” people. It's informing them of value they deserve to know about.Listening is the new superpowerPeople miss opportunities because they're too busy “performing.” Listening deeply to needs, hints, frustrations, vacations, or tiny details, creates connection. It's rare. And therefore powerful.Personal touchpoints matter more than automationAutomation is fine. Humanity wins. A review. A thoughtful suggestion. A follow-up based on something they said. Most people don't do these small acts, which is why they stand out.Entrepreneurship requires patience and faithSara emphasizes that the first few years are harder, longer, and more demanding than expected. But with patience, belief, and staying aligned with your “why,” the payoff is life-changing.Your childhood shapes your strengthsSara's ability to talk to anyone came from sitting next to strangers on flights as a Delta employee's kid. Every interaction became a data point that built confidence, empathy, and curiosity.Value before ask, every timeOne of Sara's favorite examples: she once recommended two novels to someone going on vacation. It got her booked a full year earlier than expected. Human > transactional.Helping people first is the business modelWhen you focus on helping, not hustling, you attract the right clients, create impact, and build a career you're proud of.Memorable Quotes“We're at your service, we're not your servants.”“Everyone's trying to jump on the pedestal. You don't have to take anyone off… just put yourself up there too.”“Abundance starts when you stop asking and start adding.”“If your service genuinely helps people, they need to know about it. That's not bothering them, that's doing your job.”“Patience and trust, that's the hardest part of entrepreneurship.”“Changing someone's life wasn't my why at first… but it became my why.”Why It Matters / How to Use ItModel Sara's A-BAV approach: Look daily for no-cost, meaningful ways to surpass what “most people don't” do.Shift from scarcity to service: Helping without keeping score amplifies everything, your brand, referrals, confidence, and results.Lead with humanity: Automation can draft. You deliver the emotion.Be confident by being curious: Ask more. Listen more. Notice more.Build emotional bank accounts before withdrawals: Look for tiny deposits that compound into trust.Resources:LinkedIn: Sara Murray | LinkedInWebsite: Sara Murray

Host Maxwell Porter is joined by two experts to explore the geological and tectonic evolution of the iconic Laramide Porphyry Copper Province, focusing on its complex geodynamic history and the key exploration criteria that define this world-class copper belt. Our guests share complementary academic and industry perspectives, offering insights drawn from decades of research and field experience.The Geological Framework and Exploration vectors in the Globe-Miami DistrictOur first guest is Dr. Robert Lee. Robert earned his PhD at Oregon State University studying the El Salvador porphyry copper deposit in Chile. He then joined Freeport-McMoRan as a greenfields exploration geologist working across North America, the Philippines, and Europe. In 2014, he moved to UBC's MDRU, leading and contributing to research projects on tools to vector towards economic ore deposits, across the Western Tethyan Belt to the Andes and British Columbia. Since 2022, Robert has been a Principal Geoscientist with BHP's Generative Porphyry Copper team. His expertise centers on porphyry copper formation, mineral chemistry, and innovative tools for exploration, including zircon as a vector to ore.Tectonic controls on porphyry deposit formation in ArizonaOur second guest is Professor Thomas Lamont. Thomas is a structural geologist and petrologist whose work links tectonics, crustal evolution, and the formation of major ore systems. His research combines field mapping with advanced analytical tools, from EPMA and thermobarometry to isotopic and geochronological techniques. He completed his DPhil at the University of Oxford, investigating how the Cycladic Islands in Greece evolved from a compressional to an extensional tectonic regime. In a later postdoctoral role, he focused on the Laramide porphyry province of the southwestern United States, showing how flat-slab subduction drove water-fluxed melting and porphyry copper formation. Thomas now leads research into how subduction geometry shapes the thermal and mechanical state of the lithosphere and its mineral endowment in addition to other topics, as an assistant professor of Structural Geology and Tectonics at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.Many thanks to VRIFY for sponsoring Season 5 of Discovery to Recovery.Theme music is  Confluence by Eastwindseastwindsmusic.com 

Tune in to our weekly LIVE Mastermind Q+A Podcast for expert advice, peer collaboration, and actionable insights on success in the Probate, Divorce, Late Mortgage/Pre-Foreclosure, and Aged Expired niches!  In today's episode, our panel dives into practical real estate strategies across probate, pre-probate, divorce, and mortgage-related scenarios. You'll hear real-world coaching on how to open calls with the right tone, how to match a lead's pace, and why timing matters more than clever scripts. The conversation gates approach is broken down with examples on when to ask, when to listen, and how to gain permission to share value. We discuss how to tailor opening lines to voice cues from the person on the other end, and how to use slight enthusiasm to raise energy without sounding artificial. The team explores the power of personalization, like using a name naturally and acknowledging a lead's situation, whether it's probate, divorce, or late mortgage, and how mail campaigns, pre-probate campaigns, and neighborhood touches (like holiday gifts) help you stay top of mind. We also cover practical marketing ideas: scalable mail pieces, probate checklists, and the idea of a promotional offer that blends marketing with service, including a buy-one-month-free option for new subscribers. Finally, AI is addressed as an aid to your process, not a replacement for a real conversation, with tools for note-taking, transcription, and even generating follow-ups. If you're a real estate investor or agent looking to expand in these niches and convert more appointments, this session provides repeatable frameworks, scripts, and mindset tweaks you can apply immediately to increase listings, accelerate closings, and grow referral networks. Key Takeaways Build rapport quickly by matching the prospect's tone, pace, and energy while staying natural. Use simple conversation gates to get permission and open the dialogue before sharing your pitch. Tailor your opening lines based on both the lead type and how the person sounds when they answer. Consistent timing, follow-up, and knowing when to pause matter far more than any single call. Mail campaigns and pre-probate outreach help you stay top-of-mind for when families are ready. Use AI tools to assist with note-taking and organization, but keep the conversation human-driven. To learn more, visit https://www.AllTheLeads.com or call (844) 532-3369 to check how many leads are available in your market.  #RealEstateProspecting #ProbateRealEstate #RealEstateLeads #RealEstateMarketing Previous episodes: AllTheLeads.com/probate-mastermindInterested in Leads?

You keep reworking the curriculum of your offer instead of launching it.You're designing a beautiful website, tweaking graphics in Canva, writing posts you never publish.You research.You revise.You overthink.You scroll for “inspiration.”You take notes.You gather ideas.And then you tell yourself it's “not ready yet.”Meanwhile, the days go by.The weeks go by.The months go by.And you're still inside your head…still brainstorming…still “getting things together”…still “working on your offer”…Still.Not. Moving.And here's the truth:Your business will never replace your income if you are avoiding the one action that actually moves the needle.There is ONE thing every successful entrepreneur does.Not the strategy.Not the niche.Not the branding.Not the tech.THIS thing.And until you're willing to do it — like actually do it — your business will stay stuck in place.Let's talk about the moment I realized this…and the six steps that will pull you out of the overthinking loop and into real momentum.Trying to build a business without being seen…When I pivoted into business coaching, I immediately have 7-8 clients I started working with. One day I decided to sit down, and analyze their intake forms for my market research.I sat with them.I studied them.And at some point as I was deep in my analysis of the research, it hit me.The truth was suddenly screaming off the page:They are trying to build a business without being seen. It was like they were hiding in the backend of their business.Hiding behind tasks that “felt productive” but didn't require emotional exposure.Once I saw this pattern… I couldn't unsee it. And the image that came to mind was of my dog in residency, Champion.The hidey hole: The Place You Hide When Something Feels Too VulnerableBack when I was in residency, I had a sweet little dog named Champion.Champion loved me… and was terrified of almost everyone else.So when the dog walker came into my apartment?He would run straight into the back of my closet — this tiny corner we affectionately called his Hidey Hole — and refuse to come out.She'd have to gently coax him out every single time.He wasn't trying to make everyone's life difficult. His nervous system was just overwhelmed and he was instinctively trying to protect himself. What I realized is… My clients were trying to build their businesses from a hidey hole. And maybe this is something you do as well. You're recording podcasts… but sending them to no one.You're outlining programs… but never releasing them.You're creating content… but never publishing it.You're planning and working and creating on your computer… but hesitate to put your work out into the world. You are trying to build your business from a hidey hole because you are afraid of being seen. It's avoidance — disguised as productivity.It's doing the safe work.The solo work.The invisible work.The work that doesn't involve other people, opinions, or outcomes.And just like Champion — you're hiding because something feels scary.Something feels too vulnerable.Something feels too emotionally risky.But here's the real problem:You can't build a business from a hidey hole. Not a real one.Not one that makes money.Not one that replaces your income.Because a business that makes money requires you to put yourself out there. It requires you to get in the arena.Getting in the arenaLet's throw it back to Teddy Roosevelt's man in the arena speech…“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcomingWho knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement.And who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”That quote says it all. Being an entrepreneur forces you to choose what kind of person you want to be.Do you want to be in the arena?Or do you want to be a cold and timid soul?Arena Action vs. Hidey-Hole ActionLet's define these two types of actions right now so we are on the same page. Hidey Hole Action involves you and your computerArena Action involves other people.Hidey Hole action is all the stuff you do alone:* brainstorming* tinkering* curriculum building* tweaking graphics* editing modules* planning* re-planning* researching* thinkingAll the internal, safe, low-exposure work.Arena action is anything with a chance of emotional exposure:* reaching out to someone* pitching a collab* posting content* sharing your offer* having market research convos* doing a livestream * hosting a webinarArena action is what actually builds a business.Hidey Hole action is what keeps you busy and distracted. And if you are unwilling to do arena action your business will never make money. So today, I'm walking you through the 6 strategies for getting into the arena. 1. Accept That It's RequiredWhen I first started building my business, I didn't realize what it took to build a business. I signed up for a life coaching certification without actually thinking about how I would get clients. For some reason it didn't seem relevant. But on week 3 of my certification training, I opened the workbook to the section called “Prospecting.”Prospecting — which was really the practicing of building relationships with potential clients. I read through the workbook. Feeling more horrified with each sentence that I read. Stunned, I closed my laptop. Internally I was screaming…” wait I have to do WHAT?”Up until that moment, I hadn't thought about the “business” part of building a business. I wasn't thinking about having sales conversations.I wasn't thinking about doing marketing. So the realization I would have to put myself out there like a mormon on a mission filled me with dread. I seriously thought about quitting right then. Backing out of the whole business thing. But instead, I decided to commit.I realized that entrepreurship required stepping into the arenaover and over agiain.and I decided to rise to the challenge. You know what they say… . acceptance is the first step. So thats what I need you todo first. Take a moment and let it sink in for real.You cannot build a business without being seen.You can't build a business in a hidey hole.You must take bold + vulnerable action again and again to build a business. Entrepreneurship requires you to step into the arena.Period. 2. Choose the Discomfort of GrowthThe concept of comfort zone is a lie. People think they can either choose to stay in their comfort zone, or get out of their comfort zone and grow. That's not the choice. Because the truth is “stay in your comfort zone” is not a real choice. You can stay put where you are, but where you are is not comfortable.If your current situation was truly comfortable… you wouldn't be trying to solve for it. You are not comfortable. You are in familiar discomfort. The choice is NOT stay in your comfort zone or get out of your comfort zone because every path has discomfort. The real choice is which discomfort to you want?The discomfort of stagnationorthe discomfort of growth? You will be uncomfortable either way, so all you can do is choose your preferred discomfort. 3.Leverage your social circleWhen I surrounded myself with other entrepreneur friends — people who were also posting, launching, experimenting it became so much easier to do it myself.Putting yourself out there.Taking on emotional risk to build something of your own became a social currency. A normal behavior. I wasn't the only one feeling exposed — everyone was.We were all in the arena together.And that's the magic of community:Proximity normalizes fear.When the people around you are doing brave things regularly, your bravery starts to rise to meet theirs.4. Learn How to Regulate and Process Your EmotionsThe only reason you avoid stepping into the arena is because you are afraid of your own feelings. * You're afraid you won't get the result you want and feel disappointed.* You're afraid people will judge you and you'll feel embarrassed.* You're afraid of getting a no and feeling rejected. * You're afraid you'll feel like a failure.It always comes back to a feeling. If you weren't afraid of those emotions, nothing would stop you.This is why emotional regulation matters so much.Because when you know how to:* process your emotions* be with your emotions* support yourself through your emotions* expand your emotional capacitythere's nothing to be scared of. Your fear shrinks.Your capacity expands.The reason I can get into the arena on such a regular basis is because I've trained myself to hold all emotions. I feel so confident in my emotional capacity.That doesn't mean I'm not afraid, but I can manage the fear because I trust myself to manage all my emotions. Once you learn how to manage your emotions, the arena stops feeling like an existential threat — and starts feeling like a fun challenge. 5. Anchor Yourself in the MissionWhen you're rooted in your mission the arena stops feeling like a personal performance… and starts feeling like service.This is where your clarity anchors come in:* Who you're here to help* The result you help them achieve* Why you're the one to lead themWhen you're grounded in those three truths, everything shifts.You're no longer entering the arena to “prove yourself.”You're not posting for validation.You're not launching to feel worthy.You're doing it because your people need you.When your mission is bigger than you, your courage increases.Your willingness expands.Your resistance softens.It's not about being selfless — it's about being mission-led.When you anchor into why you're here and who you're here to serve…you stop obsessing over how you look and start focusing on who you can help.That mission pulls you forward in a way willpower never could.And some days, that mission is the only thing that gets you into the arena.6. Make “Getting Into the Arena” the Entire MetricThis is the one that frees you.Most people avoid the arena because they're terrified of what will happen after the action:“What if I launch… and no one buys?”“What if I pitch… and no one responds?”“What if I try… and it flops?”But that fear only exists because you're measuring the wrong thing.Your metric — especially in the beginning — is NOT:* Did it sell?* Did it convert?* Did people like it?* Did it work?Your metric is simply:“Did I get into the arena today?”That's it.Did you launch the thing?Did you post the post?Did you submit the pitch?Did you put yourself out there?That is the only metric that matters at the start.When getting into the arena becomes the whole metric, something magical happens:You stop tying your self-worth to outcomes.You start celebrating your courage instead of critiquing your performance.And once you've mastered that — the consistency, the self-trust, the willingness to show up — THEN you can start focusing on outcomes.But not before.Because you cannot optimize what you're too afraid to do consistently.So let the metric be simple.Did you get into the arena?If yes → celebrate.If no → hold yourself accountable. That's how momentum is built.That's how capacity is built.And that's how businesses are built.It's time to get into the arena…At the end of the day, business is not built in your Google Docs, or your Canva files, or the safe little corners of your brain where everything feels theoretically perfect.Business is built in the arena.It's built in the moments when you choose to feel the discomfort instead of avoiding it.When you choose growth over hiding.When you choose the mission over your fear.When you choose showing up even when there's no guarantee of how it will go.Every entrepreneur you admire has felt the exact same emotions you're feeling right now — the doubt, the fear, the awkwardness, the vulnerability — and the only difference is that they kept going.They didn't wait to feel ready.They didn't wait for perfection.They didn't wait until certainty arrived.They increased their emotional capacity.They anchored into their mission.They made “getting into the arena” the only metric that mattered — until it became normal.And that is available for you, too.So if you take nothing else from this:Stop measuring success by outcomes you haven't earned the emotional reps for yet.Start measuring success by your willingness to step into the arena at all.Because when you consistently show up — even imperfectly, even shakily, even with your heart beating out of your chest — you become the kind of person who can hold the results you say you want.You become someone who can launch.You become someone who can sell.You become someone who can lead.You become someone who can succeed.Not because you eliminated fear — but because you learned how to walk with it.So ask yourself:Did I get into the arena today?If the answer is yes — that's everything.If the answer is no — you know exactly what to do next.Your business will grow in direct proportion to the number of times you choose courage over comfort.Get into the arena.Feel what you need to feel.Show up again tomorrow.This is how you become the entrepreneur you want to be.If you want to join me in the arena, this is exactly what we do inside of Create Your Six Figure Offer.

The crew focuses on probate, pre-probate, divorce, and late mortgage scenarios as urgent opportunities for contact and conversion when paired with a steady outreach cadence.

The speakers discuss investing in coaching, building a high‑quality local team, and combining calling with targeted mail to count leads, book appointments, and close deals. They emphasize not outsourcing your core client conversations, but instead selecting well‑vetted professionals who speak fluent English and share your values so conversations feel authentic. The group explains how advanced tools like dialers, CRM, Homebot, and AI-assisted routing keep you in front of the same leads across the day, maximize contact, and reduce spam flags. They share practical stories of probate partitions, caregiver scenarios, and win stories that demonstrate how offering help first can unlock listings and referrals. The message is clear: stay proactive, measure results, and be willing to adapt strategies to market cycles. Tune in to understand the mindset, systems, and scripts that turn challenging situations into lasting partnerships and steady pipeline growth. Key Takeaways: -Consistent and varied calling increases contact: Making multiple calls using advanced systems boosts the chance of reaching prospects. -Reinvest in coaching and systems: Investing a portion of revenue into training and technology improves skills and results. -U.S.-based callers from Appointments Today help to build trust: Speaking with native English speakers who understand cultural nuances and idioms fosters better engagement and appointments. -Provide value and build relationships: Helping prospects solve problems and offering resources creates trust and leads to referrals. -Leverage technology for better outreach: Using dialers, AI, and automation increases contact rates and streamlines follow-up. -Active prospecting over hope is necessary: Relying solely on inbound leads won't sustain your business, be proactive in calling. -Consistent value and nurturing lead to long-term success: Regular contact and helpful interactions build trust and a reliable pipeline. To learn more, visit https://www.AllTheLeads.com or call (844) 532-3369 to check how many leads are available in your market.  #ProspectingTips #RealEstateInvesting #LeadGeneration #BusinessGrowth Previous episodes: AllTheLeads.com/probate-mastermindInterested in Leads?

His journey into the Bigfoot community began in 2018 when he discovered unusual tracks in his own driveway and shared the photos online, which quickly led to podcast invitations and deeper involvement in the field. Since then, Wendell has become an active figure in Bigfoot research, regularly participating in meet-and-greets and boots-on-the-ground investigations. Through his channel, he provides a welcoming platform where others can openly discuss their experiences with Bigfoot and the paranormal.Wendell's Youtube Channelhttps://www.youtube.com/@wendellmosley911Facebook grouphttps://www.facebook.com/groups/1186663173031340California Gold Prospectors & Treasure Hunters Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/groups/57208169210/?ref=shareClick that play button, and let's unravel the mysteries of the UNTOLD!
