Bootstrapped To Billionaire: Success Unfiltered #MakingBank #S8E47

6/9/2024
Welcome back to Making Bank. In today’s episode, we have a compilation of previous episodes with Jay Campbell, Justin Mcclure, Alden Mills, Jeff Fenster, Greg Rollett, Mitch Miller, Warren Phillips, and in this episode, you will hear tips and tricks from top entrepreneurs about the guide to success. (2:39) Jay Campbell We are limited only by our thoughts. By expanding our thoughts, we expand our consciousness, and in doing so, we become infinite beings. Embrace the power of your mind and unlock your limitless potential. (8:54) Justin Mcclure Your commitment to a sober life or changing a habit must be greater than it was before. If it's not, you'll eventually revert. But if you grow beyond your bad habit, you will overcome it. Strive to be stronger than your challenges and you'll conquer them. (13:15) Alden Mills In 2006, we started selling the Perfect Pushup. In just two years, we achieved $96.5 million in sales. (18:24) Jeff Fenster Our partnerships with high-profile disruptors who have mastered the art of business have amplified everything we do. Seek out innovative collaborators to elevate your own endeavors. (23:31) Greg Rollett "As this guy was on stage, it unlocked my mind to what was happening. At the time, he was selling e-commerce-type stores, way before Amazon and eBay. I bought everything they offered, and three days later, I had a website called backyardhammock.com, selling hammocks online." (28:55) Mitch Miller You've got all the mediums: the Facebook ad, the funnel, the landing page software. These are all great tools, but they are just vehicles to house a message—a persuasive offering to the market (33:17) Warren Phillips When faced with doubts or criticism, remember the wisdom of those who see your potential. You may encounter skeptics, but heed the advice of those who believe in your journey. Embrace your destiny with confidence and keep moving forward.

Idea To Empire: Entrepreneurial Excellence Unleashed #MakingBank #S8E46

6/2/2024
Welcome back to Making Bank. In today’s episode, we have a compilation of previous episodes with Justin Christianson, Ian Stanley, Tyna Moore, Cole Gordon, Brad Barrett, Robert Glazer and Sean Mccormick, and in this episode, you will hear tips and tricks from top entrepreneurs about the guide to success. (3:08) Justin Christianson Desktop conversions are usually double that of mobile. However, average order values are now almost the same. The higher desktop conversion rate comes from the ease of browsing more products and viewing more options. (8:09) Ian Stanley When people hear your story, they’re not just listening—they're relating it to their own lives, reflecting on how it connects with their own experiences. They’re constantly comparing it to their own story in their heads. So, make your story relatable and engaging to create a deeper connection. (14:20) Tyna Moore The idea is that applying a bit of stress can help an organism thrive. Intermittent fasting embodies this concept by introducing mild, controlled stress to the body. As a result, the body adapts and responds positively, enhancing overall health and resilience. (19:56) Cole Gordon Structure your sales process to use Socratic dialogue. Ask skilled questions that lead prospects to reveal the key points you want them to understand, reinforcing the essential beliefs and creating consistency. (23:13) Brad Barrett He quickly said, "If you can remove your emotions, you'll be successful," and then moved on to five steps. I thought, "Wait, removing emotions is crucial! Are we robots? If you can do that, sure, but how?" (27:32) Robert Glazer Our differing perspectives on events can make or break our day. For example, in a car accident, while one might focus on the positives like insurance coverage, another might dwell on the negatives, shaping the course of their day accordingly. (32:43) Sean Mccormick In 2012, we opened our business from scratch, bootstrapping every step. With my partner and wife, we poured our savings into creating the kind of place we'd love to visit ourselves. That vision was our guiding force from day one.

Entrepreneurial Excellence: Vision To Victory #MakingBank #S8E45

5/26/2024
Welcome back to Making Bank. In today’s episode, we have a compilation of previous episodes with Scout Sobel, Jonathan Keyser, Josh Elledge, David Baker, David Lekach, Kevin Harrington and Mark Timm, and in this episode, you will hear tips and tricks from top entrepreneurs about the guide to success. (3:09) Scout Sobel Start creating a project, develop a product, sell it, and distribute it. Manage a small team, even if everyone works for free. This experience can be the biggest lesson of your life, giving you the confidence to know that you can achieve your goals. (6:40) Jonathan Keyser In the competitive world of commercial real estate brokerage, it often feels like everyone is fighting and scratching their way to the top. But here's a different approach: focus on helping each other succeed. By supporting one another, we can all thrive and achieve our goals. (9:41) Josh Elledge Sales isn't about convincing people of anything. Instead, it's about improving someone's life and providing far more value than what they're investing in you. If you can't do that, there's something wrong with your product or service. (18:16) David Baker Many of us believe we need to follow certain rules to achieve success, but there's always a small minority breaking those rules and finding different paths to the same success. Don't be afraid to forge your own path. (22:05) David Lekach Interacting with large retailers comes with its own set of challenges. There are pros and cons, and holding your own with these retail partners can be difficult. However, viewing them as partners, not just clients, can make a significant difference in navigating these relationships. (25:44) Kevin Harrington Many people approach deals with a "I need a million dollars for 10%" mindset, thinking only of themselves. This selfish approach is all about "gimme, gimme, gimme." In contrast, a good mentor like Mark puts you first, prioritizing your success over their own interests. (30:21) Mark Timm When you become your mentor's best student, they will double down on you. The key is to find the right mentor and then commit fully to being their best student. This dedication will open up greater opportunities for your success.

Beyond The Startup: Entrepreneurial Success Tips #MakingBank #S8E44

5/18/2024
Welcome back to Making Bank. In today’s episode, we have a compilation of previous episodes with Stefan Georgi, Craig Ballantyne, Trav Lubinsky, David Wood, Drew Manning, Rob Dial, Michael Bernoff, and in this episode, you will hear tips and tricks from top entrepreneurs about the guide to success. (3:02) Stefan Georgi Truly understanding your customer on a deep level is crucial, arguably the most important step. Often, we assume we already know our market, so we skip the research. However, diving in and peeling back the layers will provide invaluable insights. (7:30) Craig Ballantyne The essence of the "Perfect Week Formula" can be summarized in 12 words: Build your business around your life, not your life around your business. (15:37) Trav Lubinsky The misconception is that e-commerce is like printing money. However, success depends on various factors: focusing on top-line revenue, managing gross profit, ensuring a healthy bottom line, and having sufficient cash flow to support growth. (18:58) David Wood Imagine being 30% more daring. How would that transform your relationships, your openness with other people, and your performance at work? Embracing boldness in these areas could lead to deeper connections, more excitement, and greater success. (24:25) Drew Manning We often create stories in our minds about how terrifying something will be, which paralyzes us from taking action. However, when we finally face the challenge, we realize it was much scarier in our imagination than in reality. (30:40) Rob Dial When I'm negative, I attract more negativity because my brain's reticular activating system seeks proof of it. However, if I focus on my goals and visualize the life I want every morning, my brain will look for and attract the people, places, opportunities, and things that align with my vision. (38:45) Michael Bernoff Grab attention with phrases like "Look, listen, attention" or "Hey, you're going to be interested in what I share next." Using specific, direct language like "This next part is extremely interesting" engages the listener. When done confidently, it encourages them to pay attention Tags: @stefangeorgi @realcraigballantyne @trav @_davidianwood @fit2fat2fit @robdialjr @michael_bernoff

The Hustler's Handbook: Tips From Seasoned Entrepreneurs #MakingBank #S8E43

5/12/2024
Welcome back to Making Bank. In today’s episode, we have a compilation of previous episodes with John Soforic, Re Perez, Jamie Mustard, Jerry Fetta, Jeff Dudan, Forbes Riley and David Meltzer, and in this episode, you will hear tips and tricks from top entrepreneurs about the guide to success. (3:04) John Soforic If you're debating whether to share your financial info with your kids, just do it. I mean, why hide it? Being open teaches them important stuff about money, builds trust, and gets them ready for the real world. Plus, it breaks those dumb taboos. So, spill the beans—they'll thank you later. (9:07) Re Perez Authenticity is becoming a big deal. Whether we realize it or not, we're drawn to companies that are genuine. We want the real deal, not just flashy marketing. So, when it comes to choosing where to spend our money, authenticity matters more than ever. (15:47) Jamie Mustard Instead of crossing your fingers and hoping for the best, you can deliberately create something iconic in people's minds in no time flat. It's all about taking control and making things happen, rather than leaving it to chance or waiting for years. (22:08) Jerry Fetta The elite top 1% and even Fortune 500 companies put their top-tier capital into whole life insurance. It's like the ultimate safety net, the gold standard for safeguarding their wealth. They're not messing around with this stuff—it's the cream of the crop when it comes to financial security. (27:46) Jeff Dudan Balancing excellence with efficiency is a tough gig. That's the game. Living on the edge, pushing boundaries—that's where the real action is. If you're not living on the edge, you're just sitting around. (32:50) Forbes Riley We don't mentor our kids, we don't spend enough on education for our kids. Yes, they make up 10% of the population, but they're 100% our future. Prioritize your kids' education and mentorship. They might be a small percentage of the population, but they're our future. (38:33) David Meltzer Happiness is highly underrated. but we should remember that how we feel sets the tone for everything. Don't get sidetracked by other stuff. Embrace happiness and find joy in the everyday grind. Keep pushing toward your potential, and don't ever give up. Tags: @the.re.perez @realjerryfetta @jeffdudan @forbes_riley @davidmeltzer

(2:45) Dima Ghawi Anytime you feel challenged and it is starting to really stress you out, instead of thinking about the situation you’re in, think about the lesson you need to learn from the experience. (8:35) David Garofalo Investors will be looking at Gold and Silver increasingly to preserve their Capital because the opportunity cost of owning these precious metals simply doesn't exist anymore. (16:00) Jordan Mederich There's a lot of macro problems and there's a lot of micro problems and sometimes we tend to add up the micro to feel macro. We feel like we've got all these problems then we get overwhelmed. (21:35) Gino Wickman There is nothing wrong if you own 100% of your own business without any partnership. Many times there is this undertone of you're selfish or something when not at all. If it works it works. Just decide what you are. (26:15) Jeremy Slate Nothing in life comes easy. You have to work smarter, not harder. Initially, you may be in a phase of your business where some adversity happens. You just need to work better. If anything comes easy, it’s not worth it. (32:30) Jason Treu Leaders are really good at pivoting quickly. They are always ready to step willingly into that role where they take responsibility so that they can ensure the smooth functioning of any work that has to be done. (37:28) Brian Burke It’s important to be passionate about what you do. When you're passionate about something and you hit a wall, you'll be able to push through it because you know that you want to win. If you didn't care about it as much, you are likely to give up faster. Tags: @dima.ghawi @dropfunnels @the10disciplines @jeremyryanslate @brianthemacman

Envisioning Success: The Power Of Belief in Entrepreneurial Endeavours #MakingBank #S8E40

4/20/2024
Welcome back, everyone! Today, we've got an incredible guest lined up, Alden Mills, and he is going to blow your mind. Ever wondered how to turn a failing business into a $95 million success story in just three years? Well, get ready to be inspired because our guest is an unstoppable force in the world of entrepreneurship. Join us as he shares invaluable insights on mindset, building winning teams, shaping culture, and mastering the art of leadership. You won't want to miss this. (8:40) Seal Entrepreneurs Alden Mills was interested in bringing a product into the market, a product that would help people’s lives. While he was in the seal team, he would always improve some of the products that they were using. There was a high entrepreneurial mindset before he even went into seal team. (14:35) Thoughts, Focus & Beliefs Thoughts, Focus & Beliefs they inter-operate together to help you decide about taking action and taking on more decisions. When you’re starting a business for the first time three things are going to be new. Starting, failing and tiring. All entrepreneurs will have to face this. (19:55) Mindset Map Think of focus like a funnel that directs energy into taking an action. Thoughts come in three forms. Past, present and future. Whatever thought you decide to focus on is the one that will decide where you get your energy from. (22:33) Passion And Purpose You have to be passionate about whatever it is you're doing and you have to find purpose. If you're just passionate about something without purpose, then it’s more like a hobby. If you're super purposeful about something but you have no passion about it, you're going to get burned out. (27:28) $95 Million In 3 Years “We looked at the infomercial not as a business in itself but as an opportunity to do what I would call, Transactional Brand building. We're going to sell you a great product, you're going to be surprised at how good the quality is and then we're going to get sales through Word of Mouth and then retailers will want the product.” (32:55) Envisioning If you can't articulate what your vision is and get people to believe in it, then you’re never going to see it. The old adage saying, seeing is believing is incorrect. it needs to be believing so you can then see it because there's going to be something way Far Over Your Horizon and you got to believe in it before you can hope of ever grasping it. (36:04) 3 Levels Of Leadership The first level of leadership is you. it's leading you. Leading yourself directly impacts level two, which is leading teams. Teams are nothing more but the reflection of the leader. Then the third level of leadership is leading the culture of the organization you created. This is your legacy. Tag: @alden_mills

(8:40) Seal Entrepreneurs Alden Mills was interested in bringing a product into the market, a product that would help people’s lives. While he was in the seal team, he would always improve some of the products that they were using. There was a high entrepreneurial mindset before he even went into seal team. (14:35) Thoughts, Focus & Beliefs Thoughts, Focus & Beliefs they inter-operate together to help you decide about taking action and taking on more decisions. When you’re starting a business for the first time three things are going to be new. Starting, failing and tiring. All entrepreneurs will have to face this. (19:55) Mindset Map Think of focus like a funnel that directs energy into taking an action. Thoughts come in three forms. Past, present and future. Whatever thought you decide to focus on is the one that will decide where you get your energy from. (22:33) Passion And Purpose You have to be passionate about whatever it is you're doing and you have to find purpose. If you're just passionate about something without purpose, then it’s more like a hobby. If you're super purposeful about something but you have no passion about it, you're going to get burned out. (27:28) $95 Million In 3 Years “We looked at the infomercial not as a business in itself but as an opportunity to do what I would call, Transactional Brand building. We're going to sell you a great product, you're going to be surprised at how good the quality is and then we're going to get sales through Word of Mouth and then retailers will want the product.” (32:55) Envisioning If you can't articulate what your vision is and get people to believe in it, then you’re never going to see it. The old adage saying, seeing is believing is incorrect. it needs to be believing so you can then see it because there's going to be something way Far Over Your Horizon and you got to believe in it before you can hope of ever grasping it. (36:04) 3 Levels Of Leadership The first level of leadership is you. it's leading you. Leading yourself directly impacts level two, which is leading teams. Teams are nothing more but the reflection of the leader. Then the third level of leadership is leading the culture of the organization you created. This is your legacy. Tag: @alden_mills
