Eva Ascarza, professor at Harvard Business School, studies customer analytics and finds that many companies investing in artificial intelligence fail to improve their marketing decisions. Why is AI falling flat when it comes to this key lever for profit? She says the main reasons are that organizations neglect to ask the right questions, weigh the value of being right with the cost of being wrong, and leverage the improving abilities of AI to change how companies make decisions overall. With London Business School's Bruce G.S. Hardie and Michael Ross, Ascarza wrote the HBR article "Why You Aren't Getting More from Your Marketing AI."

Email me at hello@franexcell.com with any questions or take aways! For more, head over to: www.franexcell.com/   Why You Aren't Doing What You Want To?   There are probably a bazillion little reasons why you aren't doing what you want to in your business or your life...or perhaps you feel like it's just one big kahuna of a reason.     Either way, I'm going to go through a few of the most common reasons I see in the hope that it may make you think slightly differently and perhaps even make you realise how gloriously capable you are of doing the thing you want to do!   Whether you want to scale your business to a particular income level, start a business from scratch or even just believe that you can be doing something that you actually enjoy instead of being ‘trapped' by the rat race that doesn't really suit you anymore.     There will be tonnes of stories your brain and your nervous system will be telling you around why it's not possible.   We're fed (or brainwashed, whichever way you want to look at it ha!) so many messages of you go to school, you get qualifications, you get a job, you work your way up, you retire, you die.   You learn to validate yourself by your job title or salary.  I fell into it too!  But, I remember being 26 years old in a really successful career in media and advertising thinking to myself.   There must be more.  I know I'm capable of more.  The truth was I'd got to a great position, was respected in my profession and by my bosses, all good.  But there was a sense of just not doing anything ‘meaningful'.  I'd stopped feeling that sense of achievement or purpose.  I'd ticked a lot of the boxes.   But it took me to my 30s and through a little anxiety ridden existential crisis to figure it out.  Mainly because I was telling myself so many things that weren't true, but accepting them as truth.   Plus, I didn't know anyone who had their own business, I'll talk more on that in a minute.  It felt like an impossible hill to climb in terms of even having a clue where to start.    The biggest message running round my head was that it's highly unlikely that you're going to love what you do, almost like you're not supposed to. The work to live vs live to work mentality.That was only reserved for people who'd been born into wealth.  Not for us muggles.     The next message was that even if you do end up doing something you love, you'll pay for it in terms of ability to earn good money.   So the ONLY way to do what you love, was to in my mind, struggle for money.  Then you're trying to balance different levels of happiness.   Which one is less painful, more financial freedom to do what you love in your spare time, or do what you love and NOT be able to do what you want in your spare time because you can't afford it.   There's also the live for the weekend and wait for retirement mentality that's rife through society.   If these are running in your noggin as truth, and we're all run by our unconscious programming 95-99% of the time...you can see how that's never going to change, right?   BUT...so many people have that little niggle in the back of their minds about what they'd love to do...quickly followed by all the reasons they can't.   Write a book, work for yourself, have an income you could never dream of achieving in a corporate job, to not be stressed and overwhelmed all the time, to actually HAVE time and freedom to choose what you do with.     What is that ‘thing' for you.  What's that ‘niggle'?   Whether you've started your business or not.  What's that thing that if you weren't ruled by paying the bills (and your stories around that), or if you knew you couldn't fail, that you would LOVE to be doing?   Now we've got that...i'm going to give you some of the biggest reasons so many people DON'T go after it, if what i've already said isn't reason enough ha!   One of the biggest reasons is you genuinely don't think it's possible for YOU.  What I'd love for you to do is grab a journal and start to draw out those stories.     What makes you think that's true?  Why NOT you? What makes you believe THOSE things that come up? Who's beliefs are they really?  Yours?  Someone else's?  Based on how you were brought up, or what a teacher said to you?  Or the strong opinion of a parent or sibling?  What is the reason you believe it's possible for other people but not YOU?   That leads me nicely onto the next biggie.  Your friends and family's opinion.  Ohhhhhhh this is a big one.  The number one way people often find me is often through an episode I did called ‘why your friends and family don't support your business'.     I know from google search stats and analytics this is HUGE.  It's SO common.  If you want to go deeper into this one go have a listen to that episode.     But essentially, what was modelled for you growing up in terms of doing something you love?     You'll often find with a lot of entrepreneurs that their parents, or someone in their family ran a business, or someone they were close to.     For those that weren't modelled that, you usually have to break through a few unconscious beliefs first, but that's totally normal.     It's about creating awareness around what was modelled and what was taught to you about the way things ‘should' be with regards to earning an income.     What was ‘prized' by your primary care givers.  What did they value? What did THEIR parents value? It's not about being right or wrong, good or bad, most of us just don't really know we can challenge these ideals for ourselves as adults because it's unconscious...but you know now :-)    Next, what's modelled for you now?  Are you around people who own their own businesses?  Or are working their way towards it?   It's SO fundamental to have people who are working towards the same goal, or have already achieved what you want.  It's giving your brain and nervous system the evidence that it's possible AND that it's safe! Plus it gives you motivation and encouragement to keep going.  It's hard to just muster that for yourself!   That leads me nicely onto the next reason...You just haven't had the hard and fast, brain can't argue with you evidence that it's possible.  You need that.  Don't underestimate the importance of it. Seek it as much as possible.  Join groups, memberships, communities, go to events.   Your self esteem and the stories you tell yourself, about yourself.What are they.  We touched on this already but it's worth repeating. What are the reasons you're telling yourself you can't have it?  They may be surface level reasons, but they could be a lot deeper than that.  Self sabotage is a biggie!   Next up is that you don't know where to start.  This is the more surface level reason, but a powerful one nonetheless! I mean...there's a LOT to take in and a lot of different messages that can just leave you in a state of confusion.  TOTALLY understandable. It's about finding that person that has done or is doing what you want to do and learn from them.  Step by step.  Do this, do that!   And lastly for today, you might actually just don't want to do the work that's required to get it.  AND...guess what...that's ok!     There's a BIG difference between telling yourself you can't do something because there's something inherent in you that means it's not possible vs not actually wanting to do the work.     BUT there is a very different emotional charge from ‘I can't do it because I'm not capable and I feel guilt and shame about that' to ‘I'd love that but I can't be bothered to be honest.' So just be honest with yourself.     Also check that your story about the work that's required is true.     Check that there's not another way, stay curious about the possibility that comes with ‘how can I' vs ‘I can't' It's always going to require one or the other of time or money.  Usually a bit of both. But this is one of the reasons I think it's far more sensible and easier on the noggin to start your business, alongside your job and look at your job as your venture capital investor.    But so many of these aren't true.  They aren't reality. Pick out those stories and challenge them!  Reframe ‘I can't' to ‘how can I'.  You'll be amazed at what comes up.    So if this has made you feel even the slightest bit different about what you're capable of achieving that makes me do a happy and I 100% encourage you to find yourself a TONNE of evidence for that lovely brain of yours that money, freedom AND time is achievable when you're working for yourself...go to bit.ly/franandlisa or hit the link in the show notes, or on instagram, whichever way is easiest for you and join Lisa Johnson's Race To Recurring Revenue free challenge.(recurring revenue is things like courses, memberships, subscription boxes, drop shipping, ebooks, print on demand.  So many options where you do the work up front and then keep making money from the knowledge already in your head...even if you don't think you have any of that, trust me you do, i've helped enough people through this programme and my own to know that to be absolutely true!)   You'll learn ways that you don't have to trade time for money, you can have the security of knowing what's coming into your bank account every month, you'll be around people who've been there, done it and got the T-shirt.  You'll find THOUSANDS of people who want what you want so you'll find the evidence AND the community.    I'm going to be doing some bonus episodes with some very special people for you in the next couple of weeks to show you what's really possible.     I want to give your brain as much real, tangible evidence that it's possible for YOU.  Without all the mind gremlins whispering ‘that's for them not for you, you can't do that, who do you think you are!'   Hopefully you will see, or hear, how passionate I am about people truly understanding that this option for your life reality exists.  You can go into it with the mindset of scaling your existing business past that income ceiling you hit.     You can go in with the mindset that you KNOW you're starting a business and you KNOW the recurring revenue model is what you want because that certainty is important for you before you take the leap.   Or you can go into it with the mindset of I want to start a business but I haven't got a clue where to start and i'm just going to surround myself with some like minded people, take on some hugely valuable information, maybe dip my toe in the water with a side hustle and generate some extra income.   Or...I'm just curious!!   Lisa's been on the podcast a few times, has been my friend for a few years and I'm a partner because I fully believe in her work...and I don't recommend people lightly, I certainly don't partner with them lightly but she's the real deal.     If you've even listened to just one episode of the podcast I hope you can tell integrity is high on my values list and she's the same.  I've watched her over the last few years go from just about hitting the 6 figure mark to £3 million per year, 90% of that is passive or semi passive income.  I've seen it, I've done it, I know you can do it too if I can just get you to believe in yourself.   I'm living proof of what's possible.  Going from a negative, anxiety ridden, sleep deprived mess with zero self esteem to someone who's had almost quarter of a million downloads of a podcast teaching people how to change their businesses and their lives.  To creating a successful business that I love, in the dream home and launching my own signature group programme teaching people how to overcome stress and overwhelm and live a calm, balanced, happy life not being ruled by your emotions.  I mean...that's some magic to me right there and if I can do it, you absolutely can!    There's just a few pieces of the puzzle you're missing right now and the challenge will help you fill in some of those blanks...and so will I, I'll absolutely be in your corner every step of the way.  If you sign up through my link bit.ly/franandlisa then my DMs and emails are FULLY open to you. I want you to see that you can do it and one of my super powers is seeing the money generating ideas and I want to do that for you.  It's an easier process than you think!   Let's call out the elephant in the room now!  The challenge will of course lead into her telling you about her amazing One To Many programme, which i'm a partner for and I talked a lot about last year, but she is NOT one of those people that will give you the what but not the how, and I wouldn't recommend something for you that did because it's a HUGE bugbear of mine and I'm grateful to you for having me in your ear buds and leeting me share my message.  I absolutely don't want you to waste your time.

Welcome back to the Retirement Rewind! I take the last part of the year off from podcasting to spend more time with my family. But that doesn’t mean that you miss out on your favorite retirement podcast. Actually, I have a treat for you today. This episode is so good this is the 3rd time I’m playing it. Press play to find out which retirement podcasts I listen to in my spare time and scroll down to the bottom of the page to find links to my favorite episodes of those podcasts.  On this episode, you’ll discover more amazing retirement podcasts to listen to. In addition, you’ll learn about the confusing world of reverse mortgages and whether you should plan for a 20% cut to your Social Security. Outline of This Episode [2:22] Do you understand reverse mortgages? [8:26] Will you be taking a 20% cut on social security? [12:46] Get retirement ready with my favorite retirement podcasts Do you find reverse mortgages confusing? I’m sure you’ve seen the ads for reverse mortgages before, but do you really know what they are? A study done on a focus group showed that most people thought reverse mortgages were a government welfare program. They didn’t realize that there were interest and fees involved and many thought that with a reverse mortgage they wouldn’t have to pay any more property taxes. Do you have questions about reverse mortgages? What exactly is a reverse mortgage? Commonly known as a reverse mortgage, a Home Equity Credit Mortgage (HECM) is just like any other mortgage -- it has to be paid back. Reverse mortgages are sometimes taken on by people in retirement who are looking for a lifetime income.  A reverse mortgage works when the HECM calculates half of your home equity value and they set up a lifetime annuity based on that amount. Reverse mortgages can be complicated, so if you are considering one, make sure you read all the fine print. My 5 favorite retirement podcasts If you’re listening to Retirement Starts Today you probably love podcasts as much as I do. I got into podcasting because I realized it would be a fantastic way to share my knowledge with a wider audience without having to be a writer. You may be surprised to learn that I have my own favorite retirement podcasts.  Learning to save for retirement can be kind of boring since all of us retirement podcasters are essentially saying the same thing.

Uit elke crisis komen verliezers en winnaars.De winnaars zijn bijvoorbeeld de bedrijven die online tools aanbieden die het thuiswerken mogelijk maken.En hoewel het misschien moeilijk lijkt nu al je afspraken afgezegd zijn, kan jij als coach hier ook als winnaar uit deze crisis komen.Niet ten koste van anderen, maar wel door wat je doet om anderen te helpen.Niet als "opportunisme" maar omdat je een opportuniteit ziet.Niet door per se dingen anders te gaan DOEN, maar wel door anders te DENKEN.Want er in je hoofd omgaat, zal bepalen hoe jij hier uitkomt.Daarom geef ik je in deze aflevering 7 mindset shifts die jou zullen helpen om het beste van deze crisis te maken.Want hoe beter jij met deze crisis kan omgaan, hoe beter jij zelf mensen kan helpen.En dat is waar het tenslotte om draait, toch?In deze aflevering:Waarom deze crisis ook een opportuniteit isDe 7 mindset shifts die je zullen helpen om deze crisis als opportuniteit te zien: Dit is geen egoisme (integendeel)De keuze die je maakte toen je ondernemer werdWat ondernemen eigenlijk is: problemen oplossen voor anderenHoe je jezelf kan coachen (of laten coachen)Hoe positieve vibraties voor jou een positieve realiteit creërenGeld is circulair en oneindig, het verandert gewoon van eigenaarVertrouw op je eigen intuitie en kracht om hier het beste van te makenQuotes:"You can't feed the poor if you're one of them"Circumstances are the neutral facts of your life.

Welcome to the Street Smart Wealth Experience, show # 338, Today, let’s get to the real truth behind  Why You Aren’t Selling More in Your Network Marketing Business I’m Jackie Ulmer and I coach Network Marketers and entrepreneurs on how to make more money, faster and not annoy their family and friends. Learn more at StreetSmartWealth.com How is your summer, or winter wrapping up? I am thrilled to be out of Scottsdale for most of August, vacationing in California, Missouri and spending lots of time on a boat, with my favorite people, my family and close friends. The best thing is that I did not have to ask any one for time off, or get the amount of time approved. My business and income has not skipped a beat because so much of my business is automated. Over 25 years ago, I launched my first network marketing business with the desire to create time and lifestyle freedom. I struggled TERRIBLY in the beginning. Can you relate? Are you in the struggle? I hated selling, because I did not understand what selling really is. Most people aren’t selling because they have an obstacle to selling. Even as you are hearing this, you probably have some negative thoughts and feelings coming up. Why is that? I want you to really think about that for a minute and come up with your answer around why you feel this negativity. We do we often lead with so much resistance to sales? This is why we aren’t selling more in Network Marketing.  And, as you listen, be thinking about how many people you are actually sharing your offer with versus just thinking about it in your head and making stuff up.  You know what I mean right? We make that list; we look around the room; we get out on facebook and we talk ourselves out of talking to anyone because of our fear of “selling.” We have major head drama going on. We’ll cover: The “Selling” Elephant in the Room Head Drama Around Sales Selling is Coaching Challenges and Solutions Successful Selling Language Follow Up The Selling Elephant in the Room This is your biggest obstacle and quite frankly, it’s the way you think about and process your thoughts around selling. And, the way you think about the person you are wanting to sell to. In network marketing, we sell two things - products/services and our opportunity. And, most of us don’t come from a sales background.  We have fear around the word sales - probably why you are listening now. Pushy, Aggressive, Manipulative, “Getting” People to do something they don’t want to do. When you think of sales people, what image do you see? And, does it scare you to think of becoming that person? That is some major - Head Drama. So, here is a tip - DON’T. Just don’t become that person, because you don’t have to. And, you shouldn’t. It won’t serve you or your clients.  We buy from people we like; we believe and we trust. Focus on becoming that person in each scenario. The way to move from a fear of sales is only done by changing your thoughts and feelings around sales. Remember the coaching model - CTFAR Circumstance - Thoughts - Feelings - Actions - Results  The circumstance is this - you MUST sell to achieve what you want. So, let’s unpack your thoughts, feelings, actions and results around sales. You may have the thought - selling is slimy, manipulative, scary, coercion. What comes up for you? Let’s change that thought and see what happens. We must create some income producing BELIEFS around sales, yourself and what you are selling. Selling is Coaching Sales is the highest paid profession. Have you ever driven around high dollar neighborhoods and wondered what the people do for a living who live there? Very often, many of them are in sales. Imagine how different things would be for you if you began to see selling as just a simple coaching process; because that is exactly what it is. So, let’s change how you see sales. And, change is hard. It’s hard to even change our perceptions about something - like selling. You have to work hard to change your belief system.  When you think of simply coaching someone through the decision and sales process, doesn’t that FEEL a whole lot better? Your goal is to coach someone to the solution, outcome and transformation they are looking for. This starts with you asking questions to dive into what their desire actually is. Understanding why they will buy is more important than you understanding “how to sell.” Challenges and Solutions What is the challenge your potential client has? What is the outcome they desire? What are the objections they have? This is where the question piece become so important. On both offers - product and opportunity.  What are the most common challenges your potential clients have and what is the most common desired outcome?  Do you offer the solution or desired outcome? Have you had a personal experience with this? Who do you know in your company, maybe even you, who has had a life changing experience with either the product/service or the opportunity? What do you know about their journey?  As we look at sales as coaching, you can ask questions and coach them through the process of sharing their desired outcome or transformation with you. Then, you can calmly and with no hype, share stories of transformation that match The transformation they are looking for. How would you feel if you helped coach them to the transformation they want? An important thing to remember is to not confuse your desired outcome with theirs. Or try to project it onto them. Especially the opportunity piece. Successful Selling Language Most network marketers totally blow the communication piece of selling their offer. In anything we do, we are actually offering transformation. Transformation of some kind. Product, service, opportunity. Is it weight loss? Maybe but so much more. How will they FEEL losing the weight? What all will change? Back to the desired outcome - what does it take to achieve the outcome desired with either of your offers? Let’s take the opportunity - imagine getting someone started on the path to life transformation. What if they could leave their job? Fund retirement? Pay off debt?  What might that feel like? For them or you? What might they learn along the journey to success? It’s going to take some trial and error. A willingness to be uncomfortable as you develop this part of your business. However, when you always approach everything with a giver’s mentality - how can I provide the most value to this person -  Follow Up Give them the space to figure out what’s possible for them; and make sure you are asking them to join you; to start the transformation they want. You can’t save another person or want it more for them than they want themselves. Some will say yes right away and most will not. With effective follow up, you will convert more and more to a yes. Know the sales stats - 85% of all sales happen between the 5th and 12th exposure. Are you willing to check in that many times, to offer them the transformation they are seeking? Imagine how many more people you will coach to success and how that will affect your own success. Always be using good success language and be painting word pictures and the vision of what is possible if they simply step into it and commit. Remember this - you will attract people from the mindset where you are. Who you attract comes from your thoughts and beliefs. I encourage you to begin recording yourself when you talk to people. Or, record yourself as you THINK you will talk to people and what you will say. Listen, write it down, script it out and review it. Evaluate it from the perspective of your potential client. How does it sound? does it fit any of the sales language that scares you? Hypey, Salesy? Manipulative? Believable or unbelievable?  Also, evaluate the questions you get; and the reaction from others. What objections and questions do they have. How can you incorporate this into your success language and offer it as you are having your conversations? If you are struggling with getting where you want to go, let’s have a conversation to see where you are; where you want to be, what’s working and what’s not working and talk about a plan to get you out of stuck, if that’s where you are spinning your wheels.

In this episode Sal, Adam & Justin go into detail about the Breakdown/Recovery Trap, the trap that many people fall into where they work out, get sore, recover and DON'T adapt (AKA grow). If you want to maximize muscle growth, your workout must to be designed to maximize your body's adaptive response and contrary to popular belief, how hard you work out and how sore you get is a horrible indicator of the effectiveness of your workout.

Odette Peek is here to share mindset shifts that need to happen in order to create massive impact in the world. Your message, your mission, and your vision will change the lives of millions of people, but only if you get out of your own way.  Odette Peek Laurie, award-winning entrepreneur and owner of Women on Top Business Coaching, built her first business in 1993 at the age of 27, during Canada’s worst economic crisis. She sold a service to real estate agents, the market hardest hit by the recession. Within five years and against all odds, Odette’s brainchild grew to seven figures. Today Odette helps entrepreneurs achieve their lifetime dreams through the vehicle of entrepreneurship. But it hasn’t always been easy. In her first year as a business coach, Odette lost her love relationship, both her parents passed away and she woke up one morning paralyzed in her arms. She couldn’t move them properly for more than a year. She says, "I know that business owners are not successful because they are paralyzed by their life circumstances and then use these as an excuse to not go after what they want. But excuses are stupid and stupid is very expensive.” Odette has written two books: “Profit Domination: How Successful Women Get on Top and Stay There -- 201 Rules for the Road,” and an account of her personal tragedies while building Women on Top in her most recent book, “Paralyzed: Getting Past the Excuses of Why You Aren’t Successful”.
