Former Navy nuclear engineer-turned-email automation specialist Troy Broussard started to feel like he was in the movie Groundhog's Day… He could teach email marketing best practices to a company one day, then wake up the next morning and teach the same material. The consulting money was good, but the problems were always the same… And he had to teach them over and over (even multiple times to the same company) because their email service provider wasn't user friendly. Finally, enough was enough. Troy decided to bypass the need for consulting by building email marketing best practices right into his own platform: BerserkerMail. The same platform more small businesses like yours are turning to for powerful, effective email marketing without headaches and confusion. In this episode, Troy shares his thinking behind building best practices into the software itself. And gives practical examples of how BerserkerMail “bakes in” these best practices to empower its users. Whether you're looking for the best email marketing software available, or want to learn the principles Troy used so you can apply them to your own products and services, this episode is for you! Listen now.  Highlights include: How BerserkerMail uses visual cues (like stop signs) to slam the brakes on email marketing mistakes before they happen. (9:01) Steve Jobs' “Simple Sophistication” doctrine that creates fanatical customers.

Most companies treat customer service like a necessary evil, and it shows. They staff their help department offshore. With people who use fake names, can barely speak your language, and give canned responses to your problems. Or the support team is so restricted in what they can say you feel like you're chatting with a robot. And sometimes you are! Why should you have to type “human” over and over before you get help from an actual human?! But you can leverage customer service into a powerful asset–a tool that produces happier customers and a better company culture. You might even find a gem in your customer service staff who you can promote to greater responsibility. Somebody who will give more to your company than any dot-com job site candidate ever will. In this episode, BerserkerMail co-founder Troy Broussard explains how and why world-class customer service is the golden goose to fuel business' growth. And he'll show you how to use the same principles to help your business, no matter what you sell. Listen now.  Here are some highlights: The “hiding-in-plain-sight” place to grow your business. An afterthought for most companies, and the reason they die young. (1:49) Why staffing your help desk with paying customers produces better answers to support tickets, and the human touch AI can't match. (2:50). How to build a company culture that creates employees so loyal they'll tattoo your logo on themselves–voluntarily, and without being asked. (6:15) The “bank manager test” so you never hire the wrong person for a job. Save your team, your customers, and your bottom line from endless headaches. (8:30) You'll never have a breakthrough if you think like everybody else in your industry. How to introduce contrarian thinking into your work so you can separate yourself from the pack. (13:00) Uncensored look at the gut-wrenching reality of building a funnel, and why great customer service attracts better customers without the nausea of “funnel fever.” (14:00) Why growing a software business too fast will put you out of business. (17:13) An “audacious” formula that flips rude clients into raving fans. (17:53) To get a free BerserkerMail test drive with no credit card required go to https://StartMyTestDrive.com. 

You've used all the different email marketing software. And they're so convoluted! They make you pay for features you don't even want (and never use). And at the snap of a finger they can ban you, robbing you of your livelihood. It's all so ridiculous you wonder: “Do the people who made this even send emails?!” Nuclear engineer turned email software developer Troy Broussard wondered the same thing when he consulted with clients who struggled with these confusing tools.  In this premiere episode, Troy explains how his passion for email marketing led him to partner with email marketing expert Ben Settle to build BerserkerMail– software that maximizes the power of email marketing for entrepreneurs without the complexity of existing software. He'll also share why email is the “meat and potatoes” you must be good at if you want your business to thrive, and how to get along with a business partner…even when you're both headstrong and driven. Show highlights include: The intensity recipe to create all the energy you need at work to dominate your to-do list and wow your peers (even if enthusiasm doesn't come to you naturally). (2:13) Why email is the “entrepreneur's lead domino” of business, and why podcasts and social media will always leave money on the table without it. (4:14) Two Metallica truths to resist unprofitable distractions and stay focused on email marketing so you can bring home the bacon.  (4:47) The absurd reason email marketing platforms are so complicated. (5:25) How to “stay in your lane” with your fellow hard-charging business partner so you can collaborate without ripping each other's throats out. (6:49) The silent “third partner” in a business partnership, and why ignoring her will sink the business. (No, it's not your wife).

Navy Nuclear Engineer-turned-software developer Troy Broussard shows you how to play into the sexiness of email copywriting, marketing, & automation… while slapping the complexity completely out of it.  

Troy Broussard is my mentor, friend, and coach. I use several of his amazing software products. Troy is a prolific content and offers creator and here, we're talking about how to create great things from the back end of your book. Troy's services make me look like a champ to my clients, and his RedirectMe.io platform has been a game changer. We get into the benefit of QR codes and how they could help you capture more leads. We also talk about how to use Amazon and whether or not it's more beneficial to sell books in more unconventional ways. Technology is advancing at a fast pace and as an author, it's worth keeping up with the latest trends.First and foremost, it's important to know your objective and start with a goal in mind. Staying alive in business should be your goal and it's no secret that Amazon isn't going to help you retire early. Troy talks about why it's important to know your end goal before you even start writing. We discuss what to do if your first book wasn't written that way and what you might be able to do to turn things around. We also talk about how breaking content up can help you make more sales, the advantages of private book sales, why it's important to understand your target demographic, and more.What's Inside:How technology is changing and which tools authors should use to boost sales.Why you should start writing a book with an end goal in mind.How to break up content to make more sales and elevate your authority and brand.The advantages of private book sales.Mentioned In This Episode:Ray.fmRedirectMe.ioTroy Broussard

Today I'm with Troy Broussard, my friend and mentor. He's the creator of multiple SaaS platforms that I use every day. I'm in a coaching program with Troy and he's also the author of Memoirs of Mastery, which is a monthly book series where the books get sent directly to your house. If you're just starting a business or trying to build it up, Troy goes through everything you need to know in his series and in this episode, I get to pick his brain and share all of the secrets with you.Troy shares what he'd do now as a new business owner, looking back after all of his experience and accomplishments. He says that knowing yourself is far more important than following a system. You have to know what you're good at as well as what you suck at. We tend to lie to ourselves about what we're capable of, which can get us into trouble. Another tip is to do the one thing you know you're the best at and finding someone else to help you. Going deep in mastery in your own zone of genius is far more impactful than going wide with tactics.What's Inside:Why knowing yourself is the key to building businesses.The importance of going deep in mastery over going wide with tactics.The impact of having discipline and self-awareness.What we can learn from having an intern's mentality.Mentioned In This Episode:Ray.fmMemoirs of Mastery

Troy Broussard is a prolific author, entrepreneur, software developer, and high-end private coach. He's also the founder of four SaaS platforms with more on the way. I'm also in his coaching program, full disclosure. What impresses me the most about Troy is that he's so down to earth, and shares his wisdom, and I thought he'd be the perfect person to discuss high ticket offers with. Troy got his start in writing for back-end sales, and he wrote his first book about it. He delayed writing it and then delayed the publishing process, which he says really cost him. Troy advises anyone who has an idea for a book to just get started. If you want to create a lucrative revenue stream on the back end, you'll want to write a thought leader book, a methodology book, or what Troy calls a “positional authority” book. It helps to create your book with the end in mind and “sculpt” the content accordingly. If you've already written a book and feel like it was the wrong one, don't panic – you can use that book as a lead generation tactic or a bonus. Some people feel that holding back content to get people to buy your products but providing people with as much valuable information as possible always leaves them wanting more.

Mastery is the key to success in any business - when we get really good at what we do, it makes productivity and discipline so much easier. Do we need a ton of time on tasks to master something? How do we build strong support structures to make our habits automatic?  In this episode, we're joined by multi-talented, parallel entrepreneur, prolific author, and multiple SaaS company founder, Troy Broussard. He shares high level insights on productivity and how to get more out of every single day.     Things You'll Learn in This Episode  How Troy built multiple businesses without taking a social media first approach  The practice Troy uses to write 22 books in 14 months  How to create supporting structures for whatever you want to accomplish  The key to squeezing as much productivity out of your day  Troy's no-retake content creation approach  Why discipline is the key to creating freedom   

If you're a content creator, then here's a painful truth: It doesn't matter how good your content is if nobody engages with it! Given the fact that we spend at least 6 hours a day on average on our phones, finding a way to engage with your audience there makes a lot of sense. I'm using an app called Learnistic myself to host and deliver my online courses that help content creators turn their ideas into an income. Troy Broussard joins me on this episode. Troy is a former nuclear engineer, best-selling author, coach, consultant, and co-founder of Learnistic.

AARP has launched the AARP Veterans and Military Spouses Job Center, a new digital platform bringing together valuable information and resources to help Texas' 1.5M veterans and military spouses compete in today's job market. The job center includes a new Veterans Career Advantage Course to build on career planning and skills development to help navigate the job market. According to an AARP survey, more than half (56%) of employers say experience and the use of skills in previous positions are 'very important' when evaluating applicants' skills. Here to talk about it is Troy Broussard. He is a Senior Advisor with the AARP Veterans and Military Families Initiative. He's also a U.S. Army Desert Storm veteran.

ETHICAL LEADERSHIP How can you improve your leadership skills? What ethical dilemmas will you face as a manager, and how do you confront them? What can you do to become a leader your people will respect and trust to lead them in a crisis? These are questions that so many business leaders ask themselves today. And they're the very same questions that Brig. General Joseph Medina (Ret.) faced during his time in the United States Marine Corps and the business world.  Veterans, active-duty service members and their families are nearly 40% more likely to lose money to scams and fraud than the civilian population, according to a new AARP report. AARP surveyed the military community to learn about fake charities, bogus medical equipment claims, fraudulent records scams, and identity theft.  Troy Broussard, a senior advisor to AARP's Veterans and Military Families Initiative, speaks with host Jim Fausone on things to watch out for and ways to protect yourself.

Military veterans are 40% more likely to be victims of scams than the civilian population. AARP surveyed the military community to learn about fake charities, bogus medical equipment claims; fraudulent help on government forms, and identity theft. Troy Broussard, a senior advisor to AARP's Veterans and Military Families Initiatives, speaks with host Jim Fausone on things to watch out for and ways to protect yourself.

Troy Broussard is dynamic and highly knowledgable softward engineer with a strong military and nuclear engineering background.  He shared with us how he developed a "burning desire" for independence and why he thanks his sister for that.  He told us about living outside of the USA, especially Brazil, and the impact and perspective that gave.   He talked at length about the often-squandered massive opportunities in America for those who are willing to work.  He told more of his background being raised up in the corporate world, getting involved in real estate and losing EVERYTHING in 2008.  He even shared more about the military-instilled attitude of perseverance and the importance of admitting ignorance.  He shared so much more including why his services are for "the professional marketer that values their time."  Let's go!

A new AARP report finds that veterans are more likely to lose money to scams than civilians. Fraudsters often use military jargon and specific government guidelines to craft an effective pitch to steal money from military members and veterans. AARP's Troy Broussard, a veteran himself, reveals scammers' tactics and shares tips on how to protect yourself from thieves.

Troy Broussard is the founder of Learnistic™ (which lets you run your entire business from your mobile phone!), as well as being a former Navy nuclear engineer and bestselling tech author. He happens to be a world-famous marketing automation specialist with over 20 year's experience running multiple multi-million dollar software and app development, SEO, and business/marketing coaching businesses. In 2019 I welcomed Troy as a guest on the podcast, and he revealed strategies for maximizing ROI through multi-channel messaging. Today, Troy is back to share his wisdom on community building for coaches and online entrepreneurs, as well as to give his thoughts on getting coaching clients in this “cancel culture” times we find ourselves in!

I've never been the most savvy person when it comes to social media. There are people who can gain more followers while they sleep than I can giving it a full-force effort. There are things I'm good at, and I'd just as soon focus my attention on those things, rather than things I'm not good at. So I have more or less ignored the major social media organs as a tool for promoting my business. And truth be told, with all the horror stories I hear about how Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and what not use your private data for their own profit, all the senseless bickering over face masks and what not, the dehumanizing nature of social media in general, I don't see how I'm missing out on anything by not taking part. That is until now. Two people I highly respect in the business world, Troy Broussard and Ben Settle, have launched a brand new social media platform. It's called "Social Lair" and it's pretty much the antithesis of what social media has come to stand for in the 15 years since it became a thing. Data is completely private; there are potentially ads - if the owner of the "lair" so wishes, but the owners of the platform don't profit from them one bit. Now, it's not free. There is a paywall, but I as the owner of the "lair" pay the small monthly fee to make it possible. There's far more to be said about it, but I'm excited about it. I see it being a big part of my business in the future. I'm doing a test drive of the platform currently, and am looking to invite a few people to test it out with me. No you can't call your aunt in Texas with it, and you can't post videos for the time being, but it does what I believe is the secret sauce to any online business: it builds community. If you want to join me in the test drive, just send me an email: james@jamesnewcombontrumpet.com and type the words "Social lair invite" in the subject line. I'll send instructions from there. Face masks are optional.

Description: Troy Broussard is a five-time business owner and has lost everything twice before he got to where he is right now. He developed an app platform called “Membrandt”, a learning management system in the palm of your hands which helps businesses adapt to mobile learning. Take a listen as he discuss how he came up with the constraint-based model when he restarted his business having lost everything and how it is allowing him now to live his life to the fullest. Shownote: “Constraints is all about repulsion, not attraction.” – Troy Broussard · How Clinic Gym Hybrid was inspired by Troy Broussard's work, mainly his book about a Customer Relationship Management system. · What building a business according to your constraints mean? He tells his story of how he restarted his company in Brazil dealing with a lot of constraints from internet connection, to staff, and to running a business remotely. · The constraint that chiros and PTs have when it comes to business. Troy shares strategies on leveraging with these constraints. · How dealing with rules and constraints can be fun. · How to look at a chiro business in a consumer's perspective · A contract is an agreement but its not something that you can't get out of if it's not working for you. Crucial Takeaways: · His use of analogy, in this case playing Chess, to define constraints and specific outcomes, to know rules and assets and applying that in designing your constraint-based business model. · Look at your constraints instead of things that you could do. Looking at things that you could do only leads to frustration and overwhelm and very low probability of success. · Understanding the constraints enables you to leverage with them. Very good example is how to double your revenue while working less hours in the office. When you get a good grasp of your constraints finding a workaround, moving assets will become like a game of Chess. · There are creative solutions to buy yourself out of a contract. One is you can pre-sell a concierge-level service or an offering for a limited time where you can charge a premium. · Running multiple businesses successfully all at the same time is completely feasible as long as you have an understanding of your constraints.

Troy Broussard is a entrepreneur that has built multi-million dollar businesses. He's also an author (with a very engaging writing style) and he's a hugely successful Infusionsoft business automation consultant. Normally, the Next Big Thing is about interviewing founders launching, exciting, industry-disrupting businesses. But on this occasion, we're listening to an expert in business execution.  So Troy is a techie also. But you will discover in less than 30 minutes that actually it's not about tech. In so doing, Troy tells the story about how he never makes sales from his public speaking appearances. But each one is brings in clients that are worth at least $35,000.  Troy will share with you what he knows in this interesting and engaging conversation.

One of the biggest things we all focus on is getting loads of leads and then working hard to turn them into customers. But boy is that hard sometimes! Taking cold leads who have never heard of you before and turning them into paying customers, handing over their hard earned cash, can be really tough! That’s why the real money is made from the people who are already customers and getting them to buy again, and again. If you’re wondering how on earth you make that a possibility for your business then wonder no more…Troy Broussard is here with us to reveal all!

Troy operates his business from his homes in Brazil, Central Florida and Bandon, Oregon , traveling between them with his wife Edina and three children. He loves to travel and is an instrument rated private pilot that runs his business from the road with nothing but his trusty MacBook Air year round.

Troy is a business growth specialist, an author, speaker, podcaster, husband and father that runs an international lifestyle business. He's built multiple 7-figure businesses and now specializes in helping successful entrepreneurs rapidly grow their businesses with integrity and a passion to help and serve others.

Before I get into the details of this interview, I want to share something that a friend said to me over a recent Skype conversation. He's been listening to the podcast and the last couple of interviews have been with people in my Mastermind (Adam Spiel and Troy Broussard). Both have very profitable businesses and are running their businesses in a completely different way (there are definitely some methodologies they both use, but the model is different). He said something that made me realize I've been feeling something similar. I'm going to paraphrase what he said, but here's the jist of his statement: "There are so many different ways to do things and they all sound good, now I'm more confused as to which way I should build my business!" Wow. This totally struck a nerve with me because I realized that recently I'd gone off my own path. It used to be that I would distract myself by buying information products (i.e, shiny object syndrome). But instead of the "shiny object syndrome" of buying products (I rarely buy things online for my business anymore unless they directly relate to what I'm currently doing) I'd become a collector of 'methodologies'. Instead of focusing on what I know in my gut I want to do and build (and how I want to do it), I was becoming distracted (and frustrated) with the way other people were doing things. Which brings me to my interview with Tea' Silvestre of Story Bistro. Tea and I connected at a WordPress meetup in the Bay Area a few years ago and I'm SO grateful we did. I don't go to WordPress meetups very often (I've spoken at a few) because it's not really my audience and there aren't any that are close enough for me to pop into. Needless to say connecting with Tea was a huge bonus (especially since her business isn't really about WordPress, she was going to the meetups to connect with people). Before I even had the pleasure of really getting to know Tea I instantly felt at ease with her and knew how she went about building and growing her business resonated with me. You'll hear Tea's story of what she did prior to Story Bistro, how she decided to move from "The Word Chef" (although she's still 'The Chef') to Story Bistro and why she's so committed to doing things in a 'real' way. We talked about doing things in an authentic way and without the Hype. Tea shares her story of getting fed up with the corporate world, moving into local government and then the non-profit sector with her own business. Even then she was driven by doing good things and with integrity (and because of that Tea' has a high bullshit detector - my words, not hers, and is quick to call out what she feels isn't right. One of the things I respect most about her). We talked about her move from The Bay Area to Oregon (I'll be trekking up this summer to visit her) and her contemplation of moving to Detroit (housing is really affordable in Detroit). Tired of all the hype and feeling like there was no where to go, Tea created Story Bistro because she was drawn to the Story Telling of marketing and the real connection that can be created when you do things with intention, skill and integrity. And I LOVE it! BUT.. just to be clear, as much as I'm talking about authenticity and non-hypey marketing, Tea is brilliant at what she does and has the skills to back it up (hence the integrity). Oh, and she mentioned cooking rabbit and how it relates to marketing. Really. Enjoy the interview and be sure to connect with Tea at Story Bistro and the Digital Dining Room.  

By now it's probably pretty obvious that I'm fascinated by people's stories and the path they took to get them where they are. Today's interview with Troy Broussard is no different. Having lost everything TWICE (yes, I said twice), to where he is today was no easy task. I decided to interview Troy after he shared a recent story about a webinar he ran where no one purchased and then with some follow up on his part - and coming from a place of absolute integrity - he was able to convert the no sale webinar to over $35k in sales with a little bit of follow up. You'll hear Troy's story in the podcast (because of course you're going to listen to the entire interview, right?) but here are a few points that might drive you: Filed personal bankruptcy Rebuilt everything to a large real estate company, then the market crashed (and was too broke to file bankruptcy) and lost everything again Went from working 70 -80 hours a week to working only 4 days a week in 2013 (and working towards 3 days a week in 2014) Had a service based business that he enjoyed, but wasn't really his passion and built a successful 7 figure income AND... my favorite Troy quote: Money is like Alcohol (and yes, I'm totally going to tease you with that because it's one of my favorite analogies). As my business grows and evolves I'm always on the lookout for people who are on a similar journey. Not in terms of what I'm doing but in terms of people who take their life experience and integrate it into their business and it's reflected in what they do. If you've been online for even a few years you start seeing the same names and faces (if you don't branch out of the same circles or connections). Some of those people continue to evolve and it's reflected in their business and their offerings. More often then not though the 'big names' stick with the same thing they've been doing for the past TEN years (yes, literally 10 years). They might put a different spin on a product or reinvent it with a 2.0 attached to it, but it doesn't reflect their OWN growth. Totally not for me. BOR-ING. That's what I love about what Troy is doing. But the BEST thing about what Troy is doing is how he's doing it, which is with integrity and heart.   Working with the right people and surrounding yourself with the right people... is what it's all about for Troy. When he shifted his busines model from a service based busines to strictly to consulting he focused on getting into the minds of his customer. What did they need? What was their passions? Their drive? And he structures his consulting towards helping them attaing those goals and in turn has been able to reach some of his own goals (and growing). I don't want to give too much more away, be sure to listen to the interview!
