WHAT YOU WILL HEAR
•[1:00] Introducing today's guest.
Pragito Dove, meditation trainer and the law of attraction coach.
•[1:50] The importance of meditation for entrepreneurs.
When we are businessmen or women, anxiety and stress are present every day producing body tension and health issues. Daily meditation relieves body tension and allows us to start our days in the best way.
•[7:41] Always remember to breathe.
If we don't breathe, we are dead. Breathing is one of the most effective techniques in meditation—it helps us to be present at the moment and to relax our bodies. The best way to make the law of attraction work is to stay relaxed. Remember to breathe!
•[11:49] Pragito backstory.
Growing up with a difficult mother developed in Pragito childhood traumas. After becoming a mother, Pragito decided to work on herself and traveled to India to learn about the benefits of meditation, which changed her and her son's life forever."I didn't want to bring another unhappy human into the world." - Pragito Dove.
•[18:01] The law of attraction and abundance.
We attract what we desire, but unfortunately, some people believe they are not worthy of anything. It is common to find people with confidence problems but let me tell you something: everybody is worthy!
•[21:31] Why do people get stuck.
People get stuck because of judgments, mainly self-judgment. It cuts energy flow and blocks abundance. Acceptance and love will release that barrier that is blocking your progress.
•[24:36] Lunchtime Enlightenment.
Lunchtime Enlightenment is one of Pragito's books. In this book, you will find everything you need to know about the eight stages of meditation and its 115 meditation techniques. Discover which one works best for you.

Make the universe work for you using the power of manifestation.
We all have a life or a dream goal, and we cannot wait for the day to achieve it, but sometimes, we can find ourselves in a situation that no matter how hard we work to achieve it, things merely do not happen.
Today's guest Mary Petto will teach us how to use the law of attraction to our advantage and achieve everything we set out to do using the manifestation power. Not only that, we will talk about how energy, negative emotions, and fear prevent this universal law work in our lives.
Close your eyes, visualize and start manifesting the life you want.
ABOUT MARY PETTO
Mary Petto helps women, men, and children create positive change in their lives, manifest their desires, and experience unlimited joy by harnessing the incredible power we each have within us to do so with the Law of Attraction and creative visualization. She's helped people find romance super fast, helped people struggling with work issues overcome barriers instantly, and she's helped tweens and teens quickly fix challenging situations in school. It is Mary's mission to ensure that people see the benefits of visualization and intention to create the joy in their lives that we are all meant to have.

Living in the vortex is the ability to believe that all the things you manifest will happen. The vortex is a space with which you can relate and connect energetically and co-create the things you manifested.
•[19:10] Applying the law of attraction in your family.
Your family is not necessarily your children, mother, father, husband, or wife; it can also be your tribe or the people close to you. Join them and make the attraction law stronger.

[0:45] Meet Dolores Hirschmann
Born in Argentina. Dolores is a South American Internet Marketing graduate, mother of 4 who currently lives in the United States. A firm believer that the message we deliver is essential to unlocking your scalable business model in order to make it grow.
[1:53] The beginning of Dolores as an entrepreneur.
Dolores says it ended the way it started. With the dream of being an actress, Dolores went to business school, where after graduating, her father promised to talk about her career as an actress, a dream that she put aside knowing her true passion for the world of business. In 1996, her thesis about internet marketing predicted that the internet would be a tool to have a more engaged community to meet our clients. Now she is the founder of Masters in Clarity.
[8:17] The mindset of lack.
Having a mindset of lack implies wanting to cover all the branches of the different markets without having a clear idea of the main business we want to build. Dolores tells us: The winning business is the one that you will put the most energy on.
[9:37] Clarifying your message.
Dolores's work involves listening to your ideas and putting them in order. Your mess is Dolores's party - that's why many people call her the "thoughts-organizer." - The main reason that prevents your business from growing is not having a clear message. If you don't know how to start clarifying your message, a good start is to think about what you would like to do for free throughout the day.
[16:26] Put everything under an umbrella.
If you have a million business ideas, start putting together the ones that work together and discard the ones that don't relate to each other.
[23:44] What's next for Dolores.
Dolores is an entrepreneur at heart. Now she focuses on digital implementation, where communication with her clients is her primary motivation.

Excuses in entrepreneurship are not allowed. They keep you stuck and create a barrier between you and success, and what you once started will crumble. Say no to excuses and yes to success!
I have a special guest for today's episode, a woman with an improvement story where the word "excuse" wasn't in her vocabulary; this woman is Rodrika Bailey Scott.
Rodrika is a woman who had a child at 16 years old, something that for many may be the end of their future but for Rodrika was the driving force to achieve their dreams and goals.
We will talk about overcoming, the importance of having a niche, and why you should have training before startup your entrepreneurship. Also, you will hear Rodrika's story and the mentality that has led her to achieve everything she has set out to do.
ABOUT RODRIKA BAILEY SCOTT
An experienced business owner originally from Augusta, Ga. Rodrika relocated to Savannah in 2010 to attend Armstrong Atlantic State University. While attending, she found her passion for serving women and minorities in her role as President of Feminists United. She graduated Armstrong in 2014 with a Bachelor of Arts in Gender and Women’s’ Studies along side a minor in African American Studies.
Rodrika is the founder and owner of Bailey’s Belles LTD, a vacation rental cleaning service that serves the Downtown Historic District.

WHAT YOU WILL HEAR
•[1:00] Meet Rodrika Bailey Scott.
Rodrika is the founder and owner of Bailey's Belles LTD, a vacation rental cleaning service that serves the Downtown Historic District. She partners with homeowners to stage their homes for multiple streams of income.
•[1:56] How did she get into the cleaning services.
After graduating from university, opportunities were presented to Rodrika (a cleaning lover since young). One of them was working for a vacation rental cleaning service. Now she owns a company where she offers the same service.
•[4:12] A niche from the beginning.
Learned from her mother, Rodrika concentrated on what she did best and loved, refusing to do other types of cleaning services. Without knowing, she created a niche, which has helped her to grow her business.
•[6:51] If you are looking for expansion, start with yourself.

WHAT YOU WILL HEAR
•[0:57] Meet Shaan Rais.
Leadership Development Expert and Industrial and Organizational Psychologist, Shaan Rais is a Speaker with a Master's Degree in Evidence-Based Coaching.
•[2:43] The lowest point of Shaan's career, a decision between family or fast street life.
People who have strong stories have strong businesses. After spending a life where the streets were his teacher, Shaan had to remember who he was, his values , and decide: his family or the fast street life?
•[6:31] What inspired Shaan to create Branded Like A Leader.
Like all entrepreneurs, the covid gave us new challenges to face, and Shaan was no exception. Due to the Covid prohibitions, Shaan had to stop his talks and find a solution to continue working, a solution founded on his phone.
•[10:56] Changing the face of leadership.
With most of his clients being African-American people, Shaan realized that there was a gap in the world of leadership; there were not many people like him and me; African-Americans leaders. In this segment, Shaan will talk to us about how we can change the face of leadership for Black men and women and create excellent leadership.
•[18:24] Talking with Shaan about systems and processes.
Have you heard about the time collapse systems? It is an incredible system implemented by Shaan where he had the idea of turning five years of processes into 1-year. Learn how.
•[22:31] Using midset to create extraordinary businesses.
You have no option: Your mentality has to be of success! As Shaan said in this segment: "We develop a mindset in the darkness, and your perception can be your passport or your prison."
•[27:23] Monkey mind vs. Money mind.
We usually have a poor mindset when we talk about what will make us rich; money. We often devalue our jobs but, don't be afraid to dare yourself to add one more zero to that price!

Part CEO, part personal development wonk, and part biohacker info geek, King is a self-confessed serial entrepreneur.
An accomplished businessman, television producer, filmmaker, and author, Thom King began his life journey in Colorado (via Wisconsin), where he studied marketing at the University of Colorado. He graduated from Chadwick University with a BA in environmental studies, then went on to attend graduate school at the University of California, Los Angeles, where he studied intellectual property law.
In 1992, King founded Southwest Multimedia as an incubator for developing businesses that fit the vision and sensibilities upon which the company was founded — to support aspiring entrepreneurs and small businesses in cutting-edge, zero-carbon-footprint technologies and concepts.
In 1999, King founded Steviva Brands. When not envisioning a new stevia blend to help replace the amount of sucrose and high-fructose corn syrup used in food products and food prep, Thom spends much of his time learning and thinking about people’s dietary needs and ways to help improve what we eat. If King isn’t coming up with new and exciting ways to prepare food for friends and family, he is working on a ketogenic diet.

About the host:
Chase Hunter is the Lead Brand and Media Content Strategist at The Winning Brand. She helps hundreds of brands to scale up and go global by building out a strategic media plan that ts a core expertise. On each episode of The Winning Brand, Chase interviews leaders and innovators as they share their tips and stories around business and success. Today’s episode features Jeremy Slate, founder of commandyourbrand.com.
Key Takeaways:
[Show Intro]
[1:08] “So, hey Jeremy, welcome to the show.”
[1:11] “Excited to be here. Thanks for having me. Excited to share some value with your audience today.”
[@1:20 the podcast jumps at ‘absolutely I’]
[1:43] “How do you have the perfect positioning in your niche?”
[2:03] “When I started my own podcast, I made a top 100 list of the people I most admired.”
[2:16] “One of the things I started doing, is I started interviewing a lot of these people that had written e-books on amazon and were topical experts.”
[2:48] “Once you get credibility under your belt, get some visibility under your belt. Start writing for industry publications.”
[3:10] “Find out who opinion leaders are in your niche and start interviewing them.”
[3:50] “How did you get into this space?”
[4:00] “When I was in grad school, I had a teacher that looks like Neil Patrick Harris and he was listening to a podcast...that got me into the whole podcast world.”
[4:40] “I started in 2008, listened to shows. I started teaching...realized teaching wasn’t for me. I started the podcast as a way to have creative control of my life and it took off.”
[5:13] “Now we’re over 2.5M downloads.”
[5:33] “I want to talk about the power of podcasting for your business because it’s so imperative and I find that’s where so many entrepreneurs miss the mark.”
[6:01] “When people talk about podcasts, it reminds me about the South Park episode back in the day when they talked about making the magical internet money. They look at a podcast as a slot machine. They’re going to start it and make all this money and that’s not the reality of it.”
[6:14] “What a podcast is, is it’s one of the best networking tools you’ll ever have.”
[6:22] “I have a future episode coming out with former CIA general DR DAVID PETRAEUS and I never would’ve had a reason to connect with him before.”
[6:42] “You’re getting continually seen with the right messages, continually talking to influencers in your area so your brand positioning grows.”
[6:57] “Your podcast is the PR end of your business.”
[7:33] “I receive the most speaking engagements because of the podcast. The networking has been so amazing.”
[8:06] “I have a 2 year old daughter...and I got a speaking gig in Kiev, Ukraine and my wife and I thought how can we build the next two weeks around this and it all came from the podcast.”
[8:48] “One year ago that happened to me, I had a speaking engagement and I thought, hmm, maybe I should create a podcast tour.”
[9:25] “Anything live is scary because you never know what may or may not break...”
[9:39] “Even with my newscast, every Monday it’s always something, my nerves are shot ‘cause it’s live.”
[9:52] “So, tell us about some false beliefs we may have around podcasting.”
[10:03] “First one, we just talked about the magical internet money.”
[10:09] “There’s a very small percentage of podcasts that are going to make that money.”
[10:17] “In podcast space, traditional way advertising is done, is a CPM...So, going rate is $25 per 1000 downloads. But, here’s the thing most podcasts aren’t making enough money per CPM because they don’t have the downloads.”
[10:57] “One of early things I did out of gate was charge a flat rate per episode.”
[11:29] “Second thing a lot of people struggle with is getting the guests they really want to get.”
[11:53] “I mentioned the list of top 100 people I admire when I started, that list is a spreadsheet and that spreadsheet gets worked every 30 to 60 days.”
[12:08] “I’ve gotten a lot of guests in the last year that I’ve been following up with for five years.”
[12:38] “...be willing to follow up”
[12:52] “The fortune is in the follow up.”
[13:11] “Going back to financial aspect, I think there are so many other ways that you can create that content and monetize.”
[13:35] “How do you use podcasting to refine your message?”
[13:50] “A lot of ppl you’re interviewing might have high ticket affiliate offers, so it’s not just advertising.”
[14:21] “The more times you say something, the more certain you get about it.”
[14:49] “He was like what are you doing? And I was like I want to create my own life and he was like good luck with that…”
[15:25] “There’s three parts to ever message – your personal story people can understand, 3-5 teachable things you have for people and then a call to action you want them to take at the end.”
[16:01] “That’s what that clarity of message looks like – getting personal story to match with message to match up with getting people to do what you want them to do.”
[16:27] “There’s a lot of people who want to be other people.”
[16:41] “They forget that they have their own view points.”
[17:06] “There is an Oscar Wilde quote...be yourself, everyone else is taken.”
[17:22] “Personal branding is a requirement not an option, what does that mean to you?”
[17:51] “There’s less and less big brands and people are starting to know people more.”
[18:08] “What I think is happening is this idea is that there are people and they like people and they are starting to create fans that way.”
[18:33] “It’s a democratization...online marketing is coming down to the level of ppl where they’re just interested in people.”
[18:57] “The small pond, PR strategy…”
[19:31] “What a lot of entrepreneurs and thought leaders do, is they actually remove themselves from their power base.”
[20:11] “What you want to do is make a spreadsheet of all the small local groups that you’re a part of and take a look at what kind of publications they have.”
[20:33] “When something happened in my business, we’d write a press release and it would run. That’s how I built up early PR.”
[21:10] “Google hub spot – press release and how to write one...”
[21:13] “If you’re making something that’s newsworthy...you’re going to have a pretty good chance of getting that media placement.”
[22:03] “For an entrepreneur that may be where I am, in Houston, the larger cities, would that be the same strategy for them as well?”
[22:21] “Here, in NJ, there was a fundraiser for the WOUNDED WARRIOR PROJECT. They took 80,000 pound army tank. They put it on a chain. Person with the lowest body weight to pull the tanker furthest would win the event.”
[22:53] “That’s a really interesting and different story, even in a big city that would get pick up because it’s so interesting.”
[23:21] “You have to get a little more creative, but it’s totally doable.”
[24:27] “For example, podcasts are still not quite en vogue. So, if you do something interesting with a podcast, it might get picked up.”
[25:17] “You have to think outside of the box with these type of things.”
[25:29] “They don’t look for you, you have to do be actively seeking it getting it and figuring out how to differentiate.”
[25:36] “...and done is better than perfect”
[25:57] “My husband always says...the good news and the bad news is that we’re all on the same playing field right now.”
[26:42] “Sometimes you have to be willing to go for it and clean up the mess later.”
[27:09] “I know we talked a lot about getting media about the podcast space...Honestly, I made so many mistakes in the beginning. I got so many reject. I want to cut the learning curve for people. So, we put together a 38 min training… You can get that for free and start moving.”
[28:07] “Whether it’s podcasts, whether online PR, whatever it may be, the media does not look for you...you have to be your own brand evangelist.”

Podcast – Show Notes
[S3 EP 123]
When we start in the entrepreneur journey, the most important thing besides offering quality service or product, is to advertise our business. For this, we can find different resources such as newspapers, social media, and even infomercials. For this episode, we will have Lily Dagdag. Lily is an expert in WordPress and Website Design, and she will talk to us about the importance of websites for our businesses. We will learn why websites are an incredible tool to make your business known to give your business its own identity and style without having to go through social media drops or even lose your account.

[0:44] Getting to know Lily Dagdag
With a 10 years business career, Lily and her twin sister, Patricia, are the founders of SYT Biz, a WordPress and Website Design company. Dedicating part of their time to helping women and military spouses to be entrepreneurs.
[3:07] The importance of websites.
“There are people that design for themselves and not for their ideal clients” Lily. In this segment, Lily will explain how creating a website and a strategy behind it leads to success.
[7:23] Lily’s worst failure in 10 years of business.
Lily shares the moment she and her twin sister had to start again and reconsider his business. She said: What could have ended up being a failure ended well.
[10:00] The one mistake business owners do.
Clinging to a business that does not work. If you keep investing time and money in your business, and you don’t get any profit from it; just let it go.
[10:49] Giving up entrepreneurship.
Being an entrepreneur is not an easy path to follow, but giving up once you start is not the best option. Waiting long enough, consistency, hard work, and creating a good strategy is all you need to keep growing.
[12:05] Always look on the positive side.
I asked Lily what skills had led her to be successful, and she said: I always look at the positive side.

Patents and trademarks are our business brand best friend. Besides giving you legal rights, they protect them. It helps to protect your investment and give you the extra push to take your brand to the next level, and maybe one day, rub shoulders with the big companies on the market.
In this episode, Devin Miller will explain to us the importance of patents and trademarks. Also, he will give us advice about how and when to invest if you are starting-up.
ABOUT DEVIN MILLER
Miller IP Law was founded by Devin Miller, a patent attorney that lives in Utah. As Devin worked for a large law firm helping fortune 100 clients with their intellectual property, he realized that there was not a good resource out there to help start-ups and small businesses understand intellectual property, including patents, trademarks, and copyrights. As a small business owner, Devin wanted to provide a resource for start-ups and small businesses where they could learn about patents, trademarks, and copyrights and how they relate to business to help small business owners like him build value into their business and protect their assets.

WHAT YOU WILL HEAR
[1:17] Getting to know Devin Miller
He is an awesome patent and trademark attorney who is also a serial entrepreneur. And he has several degrees, including law and a master's in Business Administration, electrical engineering, and Mandarin Chinese.
[2:41] Business brand.
Devin shares the importance of trademarks on the brand. He said: trademark the name of the company, logo, and add a catchphrase.
[4:30] Investing in your brand as a start-up or small business.
Investing in your brand is protecting your brand. About this topic, Devin said: The first thing I would do is probably gauge where the value of your business is at, and then based on that value, start to look and see which way is the best way to protect it.
[6:09] The essential things that a start-up should focus on.
Budget and timing. As start-ups, the budget is not unlimited, and investing from the beginning is not the wiser decision to take, but never wait too late to do it.
[9:27] Choosing the best trademark and patent attorneys
Reviews are an important part of the moment of taking a decision, and we are so used to it, but in most cases, reviews do not exist. The best advice Devin gave to us: Always ask for referrals.
[12:29] Can I do a patent or trademark myself?
The sky's the limit. That includes doing patents or trademarks by ourselves. Everybody can do it. But the best advice we can give you is that if you can get set aside a small portion of your budget, to get a trademark, or to get a patent, you're better to go through an attorney or someone that has experience in that realm. Professionals are professionals for some reason.
[17:36] Devin first start-up
Devin has always felt in love with entrepreneurship. After a business competition at his school, Devin entered the competition with the idea of monitoring the hydrated ratio while people are running a marathon. So they can be better hydrated. He received second place and decided to move back to Utah. To continue with the business, the one that now has become successful.
[22:34] Juggling personal and professional life,
As much we all love start-ups and entrepreneurship, the balance is important. Having clear priorities will keep you grounded.

From Savannah, Georgia. Jana Devoe-Biggins is an entrepreneur, mother, worship leader, business owner of the Oh So Tour, and now the author of the new release book The Craft of Follow Up.
[1:32] The inspiration behind the Craft of Follow Up book.
After losing a contract of 40k for the company she was working for and spending days in tears, Jana decided to use what she learned as the inspiration behind her book: Always follow up people.
[3:26] Hesitations on the follow-up.
For some, it is hard to follow up with people; they usually say things like: If you want my product go and buy it. But they don’t know that best part of following people is that it creates relationships, and these relationships may open many doors for you.
[4:41] The best way to overcome rejection.
Jana and I had an amazing conversation about overcoming rejection in the entrepreneurship path, and she gave the best advice: Just build relationships, and they won’t reject you.
[6:23] Jana talks about her business, Oh so Tour.
Savannah, Georgia, is a place with a lot of history to tell, and that is what made Jana fall in love with tourism. She wanted to tell tourists around the world the history of this amazing place, so she decided to create Oh So Tour, her tourism company.
[8:32] Jana's entrepreneurship transition.
From working as a CEO to having her own business Jana turned her weakness into her strongest learning to follow up and turned it into a book.
[11:34] Jana's last seven months of entrepreneurship.
Jana's last seven months were dealing with the pandemic, like all of us. She had to see how the company she works for was falling economically and relook at her business and life to find a way to move on after the pandemic ends.

Have you not yet achieved the success (or results) that you want and deserve? Listen to this episode as Tyler and I discussed about the secret formula to be a successful brand and the biggest mistake a businessperson can make. Learn about building customer’s trust, correct decision-making, how to generate revenues and what approach you make to stay relevant.
Episode Timeline
What is an outbound sale and how it drives your business?
05:21
Outbound sale can be defined as, me going out and getting in front of somebody, and trying to get their attention, build trust as quickly as I possibly can, and eventually turn that person into a client.
7:38
An outbound prospect is fantastic if you are selling a high-ticket service. That’s exactly where I would truly invest and that is where we are approaching next.
The F.I.R.E Formula
9:12
The fire formula is a methodology that I put together based on what really worked in advertising and marketing. FIRE stands for Frequency, Intimacy, Relevancy, and Efficiency. Together, these components are the most simplified version of an effective marketing strategy.
10:41
Frequency is essentially being there and knowing how often do you need to be in front of somebody and how consistent you should be.
11:58
Intimacy is to be authentic. This is boiled down into three T’s namely, Transparency, Transformation and Tribe. Be transparent, don’t fake and be human. Lead your clients with transformation and not manipulation. Build your brand to build your tribe.
14:42
Relevancy is how you offer your message to your audience. Making sure that you are talking to the right person and being in a level of trust with them.
19:15
Efficiency is to understand what you are great at. This is boiled down into three D’s namely, Delegation, Direction and Duplication. Where, delegation is where you generate your revenue, direction is to make sure you meet the outcome and the audience you want to reach and duplication is to do the tactics that has already been proven to work.
21:21
If you are frequent and intimate, you are creating the perfect connection. If you are intimate and relevant, you are attracting the perfect client, if you are relevant and efficient, you can charge the perfect price. And if you are frequent and efficient, then you can create the perfect leverage in your business.
Key Quotes
13:09 – 13:18
“It’s not intimate, that might be the reason why it is not working for you. It has to be human, in form of marketing.”
18:14 – 18:24
“This common belief that if I put something out there, as long as I have something to stay relevant, it’s better than nothing. That’s not always the case.”
21:38 – 21:44
“When you are doing all these things, we call it the Ignition Effect. Where, it starts a chain reaction of growth for your business.”

[1:17] “So, it’s perfect timing because I’ve become addicted to googling myself everyday. I’m really loving this whole SEO thing. I want to know, how did you get into SEO?”
[1:53] “Prior to starting my agency, I was a salesperson. I was doing sales. Advertising sales, as well as print media and dabbing in digital.”
[2:53] “So, you had a really great start. Yellow pages. That’s dealing with a lot of businesses and industries.”

[4:29] “If you’ve been in business for a couple of years, you understand who your ideal customer is.”
[5:00] “SEO or a digital presence will not help you run a better business.”
[5:40] “Once you have been in business for a couple years and you know who 15 - 20 ideal customers are, the age, the region, how they spend their time, what keywords to use...then you can go after them.”
[6:33] “How do you boost your reputation online?”
[6:55] “Generationally, these businesses actually took care of their customers. They spread their business by referral and word of mouth.”
[8:04} “My suggestion is to make it a habit and a process within the company to start harvesting a good reputation management process.” PRO TIP: ASK FOR A REVIEW.
[9:10] “What about video testimonials? Can you talk about how powerful those are?”

[12:55] “Are you hitting them at the right time or moment with a product or service that they can’t live without?”
[13:20] “When you position yourself as an expert and Google recognizes it you’re going to get a lot of inbound leads of your desired user base and customers.”
[14:16] “If you want to be known as an expert in whatever that specialty is, you have to speak that language, understand it inside out and become a thought leader for it.”
[14:43] “You have to own your backyard first.”
[14:56] “Write good content. Well researched, in depth information, as opposed as to producing constant information just to say i’m writing content.”
[15:04] “Put out 3-5000k pieces. It might take you 3 or 4 mos to produce a well thought out roundup or well researched document with great images, but that would at least position you as a thought leader.”

[17:37] “What are your customers doing differently now than they used to? So, they’re probably spending more time online…”
[18:07] “Say you’re a dentist, people expect virtual tours now. They expect PPE, face shields. People are looking for a visual representation, so maybe you hire a videographer…”
