In this episode, I share how putting everything on your calendar—even the smallest tasks—can transform your productivity and peace of mind. I talk about my own journey with calendar blocking, why it's so effective, and how it helps reduce decision fatigue and overwhelm. You'll hear practical tips for scheduling everything from work projects and family time to errands and rest, plus why building in buffer time is essential. I also discuss how this habit gives you the freedom to say yes to what matters and no to what doesn't, and how it helps you spot patterns where you need more support or boundaries. If you're new to calendar blocking, I encourage you to try it for just one day and see the difference.

Affiliate marketing is far from dead. In fact, it's evolving faster than ever. While many have written it off as an outdated model, the smartest affiliates are quietly cashing in by adapting to shifts in algorithms, AI, and consumer behavior. In this week's podcast, Greg sits down with Niels Zee, affiliate entrepreneur, author, and co-founder of Afframp. Niels breaks down what's working in 2025 and how top affiliates continue to rack up big wins. Niels shares how the Google Helpful Content Update completely reshaped his entrepreneurial journey, pushing him to rethink strategies and embrace adaptability. He reveals why pivoting and staying flexible are the real superpowers for affiliates, and how to scale faster with tactics like negotiating above-market commission rates and using Google Ads to supercharge campaigns. We also dive into how to build long-term sustainability instead of chasing short-term wins, and how to evaluate offers that are actually worth promoting. Plus, Niels uncovers today's most promising niches, explains why YouTube is becoming a must-use channel, and shares practical strategies for avoiding burnout in a high-pressure industry. Whether you're new to affiliate marketing or a seasoned pro looking to sharpen your edge, this episode is packed with actionable advice to help you thrive in 2025.

Watch the YouTube version of this episode HEREAre you a law firm owner looking for advice on filing taxes? In this episode of the Maximum Lawyer Podcast, Jacqueline and Adam Williams, co-founders of Pennywise Tax Strategies, share their journey from traditional tax roles to building a firm focused on proactive, year-round tax planning for small businesses and law firms. Proactive tax planning for small businesses is so important and needs to be prioritized. Many small business owners react to their numbers and don't think ahead when it comes to taxes. Because of this, businesses are in a bad situation due to not knowing how to make the most of their money, where the money is going or how to proactively plan ahead. Jacqueline and Adam work to ensure small businesses are not left behind and succeed during this stressful time.Jacqueline and Adam speak to the errors small businesses make during tax season. One of the biggest issues is a lack of communication between the tax preparer and the business owner. Most times, business owners hand accountants everything and call it a day. Sometimes, the business owner doesn't want to fill out the questionnaire, which means the dots are not connected. Big things can be missed, which can lead to issues after filing. Transparency between both parties is extremely important.Listen in to learn more!03:21 Gap in Small Business Tax Planning 05:19 Trusted Advisor Model vs. Traditional Accounting 06:08 Proactive Tax Planning in Practice07:34 Monthly Client Check-ins and Accountability08:16 Common Mistakes by Law Firm Owners 09:36 Avoiding Numbers and Year-Round Tax Season 11:27 Regular Tax Planning Activities12:23 Understanding and Tracking Tax Liability Tune in to today's episode and checkout the full show notes here. Connect with Adam and Jackie:Website FacebookLinkedin  Instagram Resources:Join the Guild MembershipSubscribe to the Maximum Lawyer Youtube ChannelFollow us on InstagramJoin the Facebook GroupFollow the Facebook PageFollow us on LinkedIn

Think of onboarding like a marriage: you don't stop showing up once the vows (or the sale) are made. In this episode, they unpack why onboarding is the delight phase of the buyer's journey, how to prevent buyer's remorse, and the small but powerful touches that turn customers into lifelong fans (and evangelists). If you've ever wondered how to make sure your clients feel like they “married the right business,” this one's for you.A Few Q&As From The EpisodeWhy is onboarding such a critical step after a sale? Answer: Because the sale isn't the finish line, it's the starting point of the customer relationship. Onboarding reassures buyers they made the right decision, prevents buyer's remorse, sets clear expectations, and begins building long-term trust.What are some simple ways solopreneurs can make onboarding effective?Answer: Start with a warm welcome, whether it's a personalized email, a short video, or even a handwritten note. Follow up with clear next steps, resources, or tutorials to help customers get value quickly. The key is making clients feel seen, supported, and confident right away.How does great onboarding impact future sales and referrals?Answer: Thoughtful onboarding turns new customers into fans and fans into evangelists. When clients feel cared for and successful with your product or service, they're far more likely to renew, upgrade, or tell their friends about you, which makes lead generation and sales much easier down the line.

Do you ever notice how hard it feels to say no? Maybe it's when a colleague asks you to pick up extra work even though you're already drowning in deadlines. Or maybe it's when a friend invites you to something you don't want to do, but you say yes because you don't want to disappoint them.  Saying no often feels uncomfortable, almost like you're letting someone down or being selfish. But what if I told you that saying no could actually be easy? That saying no can be one of the most powerful tools you use to protect your time, your energy, and your mental health?

Ever go to do something – a task for your business, yard work, cooking – and suddenly realize you're not sure where to start? It's not that you don't know what to do…you just need a little help organizing your thoughts. It would be a lot easier if everything is written down, step-by-step. That's where SOPs come in. Most solopreneurs think SOPs are only for big companies with teams of 50+. But the truth? Even if you're a business of one, SOPs (standard operating procedures) can save you time, reduce errors, and keep your business running smoothly—especially on the days when your energy or focus isn't there.In this conversation with Layla Pomper of ProcessDriven, we dig into how SOPs can simplify your work, help you automate and delegate, and even free up more headspace for the creative stuff you actually enjoy.Trying to figure out which SOPs you should create first? Take the Business Overwhelm Diagnostic.Top TakeawaysSOPs are like recipes—great for capturing details you'll forget in the moment and for keeping quality consistent.Writing down the process first makes automation or delegation way easier—and prevents wasted time tinkering.SOPs aren't about bureaucracy; they're about removing decision fatigue and protecting your creative energy.Show NotesLayla PomperClickUpAsanaMondayNotionTodoistZapierMakeMissiveGatherGoogle CalendarRiversideRSS.comTellaEcamm LiveWhat do you think?

Watch the YouTube version of this episode HEREAre you a leader looking for some tips on improving your business? In this episode of The Guild Live Show, Tyson explores the new AI image generation tool Nano Banana, demonstrating its creative features and precise editing capabilities. Tyson also shares insights from Psychology Today on the three habits that set super performers apart.Tyson shares and tests the Nano Banana AI image tool, which can be used to improve your brand. The tool can be used to generate AI images that you can use to create brand logos or designs for your business. You can input words into the generator as well as colours for your image, which will pump out something you can use. You can even edit it further by giving it a command to make it more specific. It's an interesting tool to show your creativity in developing your brand.Tyson also chats about the three habits that set high achievers apart from other people. High achievers usually set transformative goals over transactional ones. Doing this allows individuals to prioritize actions and leave space for exploration. This is something that can set someone apart from others by setting clear expectations for themselves. The second is working backwards to reach a goal. This involves knowing every step of the way from the finish to the start and then figure out where you are. This allows individuals to understand everything they need to do to accomplish their goals. The third and final habit is spending time on things that will deliver returns. In order to reach a goal, it is important to prioritize tasks that will actually get you to the end.Listen in to learn more!00:14 Introduction and testing of the Nano Banana AI image tool7:03 Discussion on habits that set high achievers apart17:06 Lessons for business owners on public behavior22:32 Exploring the push and win lawsuitTune in to today's episode and checkout the full show notes here.

Most customers are smarter than we give them credit for. Perpetual excuse- making vendors put themselves at high risk for a short business life. Many buyers can easily detect vendor BS, and the quick penalty is a lost customer. Sadly, often times these unhappy buyers will share their frustrations with many other people.

Sales doesn't have to feel slimy or stressful. In fact, when you treat it as service, selling becomes a natural extension of helping people. In this episode, Carly and Joe break down the planning side of sales for solopreneurs, from understanding levels of touch to qualifying leads and nailing your quick pitch. If the thought of selling makes you cringe, this conversation will help you rethink the process and build a sales plan that actually feels good.Important Questions Answered In This EpisodeHow can solopreneurs approach sales without feeling sleazy? By reframing sales as service. Instead of trying to push a product, focus on finding people who have problems you can genuinely solve. When you approach conversations with the goal of helping rather than selling, it becomes natural, authentic, and far less intimidating, even for introverts.What does “level of touch” mean in sales planning? The level of touch refers to how much interaction you have with a potential customer. High-touch sales involve more personal engagement, like coaching calls or consultations, while low-touch or no-touch sales rely on things like websites, emails, or quick transactions for lower-priced products. Solopreneurs need to match their sales process to both their offering and the time they can realistically invest.Why is qualifying leads so important? Not every prospect is worth your time. By qualifying leads, making sure they have a problem you can solve, the authority to make a decision, and the budget to buy, you avoid wasting hours chasing “tire kickers.” A simple system for filtering leads upfront saves time, energy, and frustration later on.

In this episode of the Maximum Lawyer Podcast, Tyson and his wife, Amy, share their journey of building and leading the law firm Maximum Lawyer together. The conversation delves into their evolving partnership, from navigating the challenges of working as spouses to developing a supportive and growth-oriented firm culture. Tyson and Amy talk about their personal and professional growth while being law partners. For both, trial and error is the key to growth, especially when building something together as a team. For Amy, this was something she learned while studying journalism. When working together as partners, success really is shared and more so when both are together contributing and putting in work. This collaboration is key to a successful relationship and business.Marriage can affect a business and both Tyson and Amy provide some insights on that idea. Meshing marriage with business can be a huge issue and can lead to riffs. Tyson and Amy reflect on the issue of talking about work in bed, which led to a lot of disagreements. It is important to identify where the boundaries are and respect what each individual likes to do.

After nine years of collaborating virtually, Carly and Joe finally met face-to-face at the INBOUND conference in San Francisco. The sessions were buzzing with AI talk, but Carly and Joe zeroed in on what really matters for solopreneurs: marketing strategy that puts people first. In this episode, they unpack why human connection is more powerful than any algorithm, how trust fuels business growth, and why a solid strategy beats chasing every shiny new tactic. Whether it's AI Engine Optimization or grassroots networking, you'll learn how to cut through the noise and build marketing that actually works for solopreneurs.Important Takeaways From The EpisodeWhy is marketing strategy more important than tactics for solopreneurs? Because tactics change constantly. New platforms, AI tools, and algorithms come and go, but if you have a clear strategy, knowing who you serve, what your brand stands for, and how you build trust, you can adapt to any trend. Strategy is your foundation, tactics are just the tools you plug in along the way.How does AI impact solopreneur marketing? AI is creating noise in the marketplace, making it harder for people to know what's authentic. The good news? That actually gives solopreneurs an edge. Solopreneurs have always relied on real human connection and trust to grow their businesses, and those skills are now more valuable than ever. AI can support your work by handling repetitive tasks, but it should never replace your strategy or your voice.What are the key steps to building an effective solopreneur marketing strategy? It comes down to five essentials:Build trust.Create resonance.Establish desire.Inspire action.Repeat the process.This loop ensures your marketing always stays people-centered, no matter the trends.

C'est Joffrey, auditeur fidèle de La Cohorte, qui m'a soufflé l'idée de lire l'étude “Emploi et revenus des indépendants – Édition 2025” publiée par l'INSEE. Le titre m'a séduite, mais très vite, j'ai déchanté : des données un peu anciennes, des catégories très larges, et surtout, un gros flou sur ce qu'on entend par “indépendant”. Dans cette MM, je m'interroge : - Est-ce qu'on est si difficiles à désigner ? - Et si c'était justement ça, le cœur du problème ? Et toi, tu te sens freelance, indépendant, micro-entrepreneur ? C'est quoi le mot que tu utilises pour désigner ton mode de fonctionnement ? (Pour me répondre, envoie-moi un mp sur Linkedin

Do you ever catch yourself standing in front of the fridge or pantry, not because you're hungry, but because you're bored, stressed, or just want a break from everything going on in your life?  Maybe you've had this thought: “Why can't I just eat like a normal person?”  I hear this from my clients all the time, especially high-stress professionals like accountants, lawyers, and business owners. People who can handle complex projects, manage other people's money or businesses, and make huge decisions every day. Yet when it comes to food? It feels like it's the one area that's out of control.  Today, I want to help you understand why you overeat, and more importantly, how you can stop, without relying on willpower. Because the solution isn't about discipline or “eating less.” It's about understanding what's really going on in your brain, the root cause, and learning how to process emotions instead of numbing them with food.  Let's dive in… Join us in a community built specifically for accountants and high-stress professionals.  You'll receive support, accountability, and a community that understands what you're going through.

Watch the YouTube version of this episode HEREAre you an attorney looking for strategies for content and AI? In this special LinkedIn Live episode of Law Subscribed, host Matthew Kerbis (“The Subscription Attorney”) welcomes Tyson Mutrux, co-founder of Maximum Lawyer and practicing injury attorney. They discuss the evolution of legal podcasting, the importance of delivering valuable content, and strategies for effective law firm branding.Matthew and Tyson talk about the importance of valuable content over production quality. Most people will value good content over the quality of how a video is produced. As time goes on, it is important to invest in good production equipment and tools to enhance your content. But, if your content is good and of use to people, they will listen or watch despite how it looks or sounds. As content creators and attorneys, it is important to listen to what your audience wants to learn so you can keep them engaged.As AI progresses, the types of tools will become more mainstream within law firms. Law firms are perfectly equipped to take on AI tools and integrate them into a system. Whether it be intake, case management, bookkeeping, invoicing or research, AI tools like Grammerly, Perplexity or Calendly are great for managing law firms. Matthew suggests utilizing a Roku system, where all of your favourite AI tools can be managed in one place.Take a listen to learn more!05:49 Content Value and Audience Engagement13:19 Law Firm Branding and Trade Names18:31 Geographic and Niche Branding Strategies24:42 Metaverse, Blockchain, and AI in Law36:00 Subscription Models and Tech Industry Shifts39:31 Legal AI Research Tools and Law School TrainingTune in to today's episode and checkout the full show notes here.Connect with Matthew Kerbis:Website

In this episode, I'm sharing my favorite productivity tip: the 30-minute catch all block. As a mom and business owner, I know how overwhelming it can be to juggle constant inputs and endless micro-tasks. That's why I schedule one or two dedicated 30-minute blocks each day—midday and/or at the end of the day—to batch tasks like replying to emails, returning messages, and handling admin work. This simple shift has helped me reduce task switching, clear mental clutter, and protect my focus time for deep work. I use my digital calendar to make these blocks non-negotiable, so I can stay in control and be less reactive throughout the day. If you're looking for more clarity, calm, and productivity, try adding a catch all block to your routine.

Watch the YouTube version of this episode HEREAre you a law firm owner looking to scale your business? In this episode of the Maximum Lawyer Podcast, Tyson interviews Matt Burke, the founder of Zilla Metrics, who shares his remarkable journey from a troubled youth to building a successful business helping law firms scale. They discuss law firm marketing, client experience, and operational challenges.With expertise in helping law firm owners scale, Matt talks about the importance of mapping the client journey. This includes understanding and mastering every interaction a client will have, from looking you up online to closing a case. Mapping the client journey also involves making each step of the process seamless. For example, if someone is getting to know your firm and wants to see if you are a good fit for them, create a quiz funnel on your website. This allows for someone to answer a few quick questions about their situation, leading to that first call.Matt and Tyson chat about patterns seen in successful law firms. Successful law firms are focused on generating leads and are obsessed with the intake system. Since intake is a crucial part in making money, many successful firms get it right. Their system is easy, quick and uses all the right tools and processes. Another pattern is having a good CRM. Many firms fail because their CRM is not being used by staff or is too complicated.

Watch the YouTube version of this episode HEREAre you a law firm owner looking to create better work environments for your staff? In this episode of "The Guild Live Show," Tyson explores why every team does not always thrive in a so-called “innovative” culture, emphasizing the importance of tailoring workplace environments to unique needs. Tyson speaks to the importance of culture fit for companies who want to create healthy work environments. Sometimes the culture of a firm involves a certain type of individual who will make the firm better. Relying on creating a team of misfits can create environments where people might not be able to keep up and it can be damaging. If the environment of your firm is fast paced, it is important to hire people that fit that mold. Leaders play a role in creating and determining what the culture is and it is important that leaders know what they want for their firm.Good work environments support employee's development and mental health. Tyson shares some team activities leaders can coordinate to boost cognitive health. This can be things employees do solo or the team does together. Ideas include the team tracking their sleep to find out how much is needed to be productive, creating 90 minute work blocks where everyone does focused tasks and committing to minimizing some low value channels of information, like social media.Take a listen.1:20 The importance of culture fit over emulating large companies4:00 Leaders' role in creating cultures that attract and repel talent8:55 5 ways to make yourself less intelligent15:14 Suggestions for team activities to boost cognitive healthTune in to today's episode and checkout the full show notes here.
