Business is hard right? But, there are two types of people. Those who struggle to implement tactics thinking that’s how to grow your business. And those who focus on growing their MINDSET.
At Fearless Business we focus on 3 core pillars:

Most coaches are sitting on an extra £2K a month and don't even know it.
If you're already working with coaching clients, you have everything you need to add a significant recurring revenue stream without finding new clients, increasing your hours, or changing your business model. One simple product addition is all it takes.
In this episode, Robin breaks down exactly how to add half-day and full-day intensive sessions as upsells to existing clients, and why just three quarterly bookings at £1,500 each can transform your monthly income.

Most coaches have money sitting in their business doing absolutely nothing.
Interest on savings, affiliate recommendations and underutilised assets are three of the simplest ways to generate extra income each month with minimal effort. Yet most coaches overlook all three completely.
In this episode, Robin shares the exact passive income streams he uses to generate consistent additional revenue in his coaching practice, including the one mistake he made for over 12 months that was quietly costing him hundreds of pounds every single month.

Most coaches are losing thousands every month and blaming the wrong things.
It is not your pricing, your niche or your marketing. For many coaches just starting out, the single biggest drain on monthly revenue is the absence of one simple document. Robin learned this the hard way, losing close to £24,000 in his first year of coaching before finally fixing it.
In this episode, Robin shares the exact mistake that cost him £2,000 a month, how a simple client agreement transformed his retention and cash flow, and why getting clients to sign a contract is about far more than legal protection.

Most coaches are broke not because they lack talent but because they are invisible.
The work is good. The results are real. But without the basic foundations of a credible online presence, consistent social proof and the right volume of activity, even the best coaches struggle to attract and enrol clients. The frustrating part is that most of these fixes take less than a day and cost almost nothing.
In this episode, Robin breaks down the six mistakes he sees small business owners making repeatedly and the simple, inexpensive fixes that can start generating more leads and enquiries almost immediately.

Most coaches are not burned out because they work too hard. They are burned out because they are working on the wrong things.
Robin discovered this the hard way two years into running his coaching practice, when a mentor looked at his diary and immediately spotted the problem. The fix took less than 30 days and freed up 20 hours every single week, without dropping a single client or reducing his income.
In this episode, Robin shares the exact diary audit system he now uses to protect his time, batch his energy and run a thriving coaching practice in just six hours of coaching per week.

Google's monopoly on search is over. Most business owners have no idea what to do next.
Organic traffic from Google has dropped by 30% in the last 12 months alone. The businesses picking up those lost leads are not the ones spending more on ads or posting more on social media. They are the ones showing up in AI search tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity and Claude. And right now, almost none of your competitors know how to get there.
In this episode, Robin breaks down exactly how AI search works, why it represents the biggest shift in digital marketing in 20 years and the five practical steps any business owner can take today to start getting found without spending a penny.

One podcast interview generated as many leads as four and a half years of social media. Here is what that taught Robin about growing a business.
Most coaches believe that consistent social media content is the path to sustainable revenue. Robin believed the same thing, until a single guest appearance on Ali Abdaal's podcast produced 3,000 leads in one conversation and made him question everything his team had been doing for years.
In this episode, Robin breaks down the unconventional strategies that took his coaching practice from zero to $300,000 a year, why 10x thinking beats working harder every time and how partnerships with the right audiences can do in one day what social media cannot do in years.

Most business investments come with a clear ROI. This one did not. Robin went anyway.
Flying business class to Dubai, hosting a rooftop dinner for 20 clients and spending three days at one of the world's biggest creator economy conferences is not a decision that makes sense on a spreadsheet. But after 10 years of building a coaching practice with clients in 30 countries, Robin has learned that the most valuable business moves rarely do.
In this behind the scenes episode, Robin shares what a day in the life of a global business coach actually looks like, why deepening partnerships matters more than chasing leads and why trusting your gut over logical ROI calculations is sometimes the most strategic thing you can do.

Most of the things holding your business back today were learned behaviours from your 20s.
With over 20 years in business, several six-figure ventures and a recent health diagnosis that brought everything sharply into focus, Robin reflects on the 10 things he would go back and tell his younger self about money, health, business and life. Some of these lessons cost him dearly. All of them are avoidable.
In this episode, Robin gets candid about the mistakes that quietly shaped his 20s and the simple shifts that would have changed everything.

Most coaches are waiting for clients to come to them. That's exactly why they're struggling.
Social media posts, perfecting a website and tweaking a lead magnet are not client acquisition strategies. They are procrastination dressed up as productivity. Real client acquisition requires getting in front of people, building trust at scale and creating systems that generate leads whilst you sleep.
In this episode, Robin shares the exact strategies he used to build his coaching practice from scratch, including how guesting on over 200 podcasts, building his own community and playing the long game with event sponsorship created a pipeline of qualified leads that still delivers results years later.

Most coaches are posting every day and wondering why nobody is buying. Here is why.Social media is not a client acquisition strategy. It is an awareness tool. And confusing the two is costing coaches thousands in lost revenue every single month. In 2022, Robin quit social media entirely, rebuilt his marketing strategy from the ground up and doubled the revenue in his coaching practice as a result.
In this episode, Robin reveals the three-tier marketing framework that replaced his social media strategy, why vanity metrics like likes and shares are the enemy of real growth and how one partnership generated over £250,000 in new revenue from a single podcast appearance.
WHAT YOU'LL LEARN:✅ Why social media is a short-term awareness tool and nothing more and what most coaches get dangerously wrong about it
✅ The three-tier marketing framework covering short, medium and long-term lead generation strategies that work together
✅ Why marketing assets beat social media every time and how to build content that generates leads whilst you sleep
✅ How strategic partnerships create explosive inbound growth without spending a penny on paid advertising
✅ Why a hyper-engaged audience of 1,000 people beats 100,000 passive followers every single time

In a recent episode of The Fearless Business Podcast, Robin Waite interviews Chris Do, a successful entrepreneur who has built an $80 million agency over 22 years. Chris is also the creator of the YouTube channel "The Futur" which boasts over 2.5 million subscribers. This conversation dives deep into Chris's journey, the lessons he's learned, and the strategies that have propelled his success.
Key Takeaways* Everyone has a unique superpower that can be harnessed for success. * Authenticity in branding can significantly accelerate business growth. * Pricing strategies, including price bracketing, can enhance profitability. * The importance of focusing on outcomes rather than time spent.
Discovering Your SuperpowerChris believes that everyone possesses a superpower—a unique strength that, when fully integrated into their professional life, can lead to greater success. He shares his journey of self-discovery, emphasising that many people often suppress their true passions in favour of societal expectations. By embracing all aspects of oneself, including childhood interests and curiosities, individuals can align more closely with their authentic selves.
The Importance of AuthenticityIn the podcast, Chris discusses how many people present a version of themselves that they think others want to see, rather than their true selves. This can hinder genuine connections and business growth. He encourages listeners to be intentional about their branding and to express their true beliefs and values. By doing so, they can attract the right audience and foster deeper relationships.
Navigating Social NormsChris acknowledges that while some social norms are beneficial, they shouldn't dictate how one presents themselves in business. He uses the analogy of shopping in a supermarket, where products compete for attention based on their packaging and branding. Just as unique products stand out on shelves, individuals should strive to showcase their authentic selves to attract the right clients.
The Journey of ReinventionChris shares that throughout his career, he has had to reinvent himself every few years to stay relevant. He highlights the importance of being proactive in adapting to changes in the industry, rather than waiting for disruption to occur. This mindset has allowed him to pivot successfully from a service-based design company to a content-driven business.
Pricing Strategies: Price BracketingOne of the key topics discussed is price bracketing. Chris explains that when clients are hesitant to reveal their budget, it’s essential to provide a range. For instance, stating that a project could cost between $30,000 and $200,000 allows clients to feel more comfortable sharing their budget. This strategy not only helps in negotiations but also sets a precedent for the value of the service being offered.
Incremental Pricing: Go HigherChris advocates for incremental pricing, encouraging business owners to raise their prices significantly rather than making minor adjustments. He argues that this approach tests the market's perception of value and helps professionals understand their worth better. By focusing on the outcomes they deliver, rather than the time spent, service providers can better align their pricing with the value they create.
The Power of OutcomesA significant point made during the conversation is the need to shift focus from time-based billing to outcome-based pricing. Chris emphasises that clients care more about the results they receive than the hours spent on a project. By framing conversations around the impact of their work, service providers can better articulate their value and justify their pricing.
ConclusionChris Do's insights offer valuable lessons for entrepreneurs and business owners looking to scale their operations. By embracing authenticity, understanding their unique superpowers, and implementing effective pricing strategies, individuals can create a more fulfilling and profitable business. The journey of self-discovery and reinvention is ongoing, but with the right mindset, anyone can achieve their goals and make a significant impact in their industry.

Earlier on this year I took a family trip to Disney World Florida for the first time. I've never been before so I had absolutely no point of reference as to what the experience was going to be like.
It goes without saying that it was epic.
While I was out there I still carried on with my Weekly Group Coaching calls with my amazing Fearless Crew, and so after ten days at Disney I shared my business lessons with them on the call.
So, what you're listening to is me speaking on a coaching call, if it feels more/less formal that usual or different to my typical podcast recordings.
What were my business lessons from Disney?1. Add Upgrades and Upsells Into Your Business:There is just incredible demand at Disney...throughout the year...ALL of the time! And despite there being four parks there are only a handful of big experience rides at each park. Which means that if you want to get onto those rides, you've got to a) upgrade to the Genie+ feature in the Disney App...which is a daily upgrade of about $36 per person (EVERY DAY!!!!)...which then unlocks Lightening Lanes.
What could you introduce into your business to give people an upgrade?
In Fearless Business I have the Group Accelerator, but if you want to hang out with me 1:2:1 then you have to upgrade to my Hybrid Coaching programme or full 1:2:1 Business Coaching.
Food at Disney is also a premium. Drinks are a premium.
With their having a captive audience you can't escape spending even more money while you're there.
Customer Services and Remarkable ValueJust brilliant...at every single part of Disney...just brilliant!
Stimulating the Demand with FREE Marketing!What I loved was the photographers throughout the parks and it was included to have your photos taken. You could approach any photographer and have your photo taken, scan your card and they'd send it into your Disney App within seconds.
Why would they do this for free? Instead of you paying for it?
Disney know that you're going to share their photos on social media and with your family, and they want those photos and Disney to be seen in the best possible light. So it's brilliant free marketing for Disney.
What could you do to encourage people to talk about and share your business and brand FOR FREE?
And FOMO is a huge part of marketing within the parks as well. The queues are long and it makes you want to go on the rides MORE not less. So if you are too cheap you're signalling to the market that you "have lots of supply" available...i.e. you're not in demand. So, why would people get FOMO when you're not in demand. Limit your supply and you'll find you have a waitlist for your services.
How can you automate requesting review from your customers?

In August '23 I was particularly fortunate to be a guest on the Deep Dive Podcast with Ali Abdaal. For those who don't know Ali has 6 million subscribers to his main YouTube channel.
That one single podcast interview generated 1,500 leads for my business in the subsequent 90 days, which led to 80+ sales calls and over £150,000 in booked revenue.
It blew my mind how one podcast interview could make or break the fortunes of a business owner, and so in this episode I disect what steps I went through in order to get this podcast booked.
My blinding flash of the obvious was that it was all down to the Partnerships that I built that this podcast even came about. From doing the Key Person of Influence course ten years ago with Daniel Priestley, to my friendship with author Simon Alexanger-Ong they all played a part.
The 5 Steps for Partnership are:1. Be intentional about the 10-20 people you would like to partner up with and how the partnership will benefit both you and them. 2. Ensure you a rephysically in the same room with your partners regularly. Yes we live in an online world but nothing beats a hand shake and looking into someone's eyes! 3. Be helpful and add value. 4. Finding your inside man/woman. 5. The "Silver Platter" methodology for sealing a new partnership.

This Podcast episode covers one of the most commonly asked questions I get during coaching sessions which is, “Should I advertise my prices on my website?”
The very short answer is, “No!” don’t advertise your prices on your website.
There are several reasons for this which I go through in the podcast episode and I’ll also outline below:
They were so focussed on getting more customers via marketing as a way to grow their business, they were ignoring just about every other metric within the business. I looked at their finances and the business wasn’t looking shabby profit wise, but growth had slowed down dramatically.
The numbers, which did look interesting to me, were on their cold leads into warm enquiries.
It transpired many of their customers were “price sensitive” and were asking for prices up front in Messenger and via email.
And my client was giving them the prices. This isn’t a big issue in its own right however it quickly became apparent that many of their prospects were uneducated buyers.
I challenged their belief that giving away prices was a qualifier. It can be used to qualify prospects, but only when demand is so high there are few other ways to qualify prospects.
They were adamant about giving the prices away as their belief was that, “If we don’t give prices when people ask then we are being dishonest!” and they believed in this quite strongly.
I suggested we focus on a campaign to get prospective buyers into their clinic before giving their prices away for 30 days and see if it made any difference. I offered to match any drop in sales if they felt strongly my way contributed to losing clients.
After 30 days their conversion from cold lead to warm prospect went up by 40% and this continued through into the profit and loss account 60-days later.
By inviting prospects into the clinic they could see how amazing my client was, how professional their clinicians were, the quality of the services they provided and above all could learn about the treatments they were interested in buying.
There was no pressure selling, just an opportunity to experience what it would be like to visit the clinic and experience a treatment and consultation.
Pricing is mostly based on mindset and confidence. Today you might not be so bullish about your prices, business or yourself and so it’s “easier” to fall back on your prices that are black and white on your website.
However, tomorrow, for whatever reason, you might be feeling really confident having listened to a podcast from Robin about increasing your prices…but you can’t increase your prices…because they are in black and white on your website.
I don’t know who made up this stupid rule about putting prices up maybe once a year and by only 5-10% if that…what a stupid rule, who decided that one?
When you’re adjusting and testing new price points for your products, you might adjust your prices 6-10 times throughout the year until you reach a natural point of supply and demand. Imagine having to do 6-10 updates on your websites and marketing material.
So, while you’re testing new prices, remove all traces of your price list from websites, social media and your email marketing so that people have to enquire about your products and prices to find out more.
If you’re worried about this then please go back and re-read my comments in the section above.
Pricing Is a Conversation StarterPeople buy for many reasons and your prices only make up a small percentage of that buying decision, here are some example of other reasons why people buy, or at least enquire about your products:
Referral - They heard someone talking about your business/brand and want to know whether your products or services can help them.

Most business owners I know are stuck in the “sales cycle of doom” meaning that they are constantly having to market, sell and deliver their services just to get by. Rarely do I see successful small businesses producing any level of profit.
Growing a sustainable small business requires the owner to:* Save up for a rainy day fund - we recommend saving 6 months of operating expenses should the worst case happen and you are unable to work, at least your business has a small survival fund while you get back on your feel. This might take 2-3 years to save up. * Reinvest in your business - business requires investment in order to grow, if you’re sucking all the profits out of your business by way of a salary, it is never going to grow. * Create profit - Turnover is vanity but profit is sanity. The goal in business is not to collect customers. It is to make profit. It is much better to run a business that has a turnover of £150k and profit of £80k rather than a £1m revenue business making a loss of £80k.
Why is it important to watch your costs?For every £1 you bring into the business you will have:
By the time you deduct all of those it means your £1 is probably worth more like £0.50 or even less in many cases.
Therefore every saving of £1 you can create in your business means you have to bring in £2-3 less in revenue on the top line. Which means you need FEWER clients. Not more.
This is a more sustainable business.
Imagine a coaching business which has a group coaching programme which it sells for £4,500 per seat.
And that coaching practice has several subscription softwares which it pays for every month. If that coaching business can cut it’s subscription costs by just £200/mth, when you extrapolate that out over the course of a year, £2,400.
Based on the maths of £1 saved leads to £2 less in required revenue this means that coach can afford to NOT HAVE TO enrol one additional client that year. £200 doesn’t sound like a lot, however the effort required to enrol a coaching client might require:
So, you can see, a saving of just one client per year frees up at least 17 measurable hours for that coach, consultant or freelancer and countless amounts of energy in marketing.
But I need to do marketing which costs moneyYes…and no…if you’ve listened to other episodes of the Fearless Business Podcast you’ll have heard me talk about Marketing Assets. If you build marketing assets such as:
To name just four assets, you can create these assets and they will start conversations for you while you sleep.
When you’re next tempted to buy a “shiny” marketing thing for $5k from a hipster bro-marketer who wows you with “guaranteed” results…think twice.
Most people miscalculate the ROI required for that investment to make sense, and think they just need to recover a single client (if they’re worth $5k to you) to make an ROI.
WRONG!
You will need at least 2-3 clients just to BREAK EVEN and probably more like 8-10 clients over the following year to justify the investment. As generally these investments become rolling payments that you need to make month in and month out irrespective of the results. They will also blame you should they not produce the results they promised you.
That’s a podcast episode for another day.
The moral of the story is:
Keep your costs low and your income high.

If you're putting offers out there on social media, week in and week out, wondering why literally nobody is interested in your offer, you'll find out why in this episode of the podcast.
A mistake people make is that they think it's their "audience" who are fools for not wanting to take the marketer up on their amazing offer. They didn't stop to ask several very pertinent questions before spraying marketing muck all over their audience. These questions include:
In fact all of these could indeed by true but your messaging sucks so while your offer is great your value proposition sucks and so the market indeed ignores your offer.
This is not, however, their fault, it's yours and you need to own it and ensure your offer has some context based on the questions I've posed above.
Your offer should be an invitation to take the next step on your process and NOT to buy something from you.
Let me explain, most people are littering the marketplace with cheap offers which are sub £200. Cheap and dirty and they think that will attract buyers in.
However, this rarely works.
This thing called Latent Demand exists.
An example of latent demand would be the shoppers trawling the aisles of Sainsburys for bread and milk and then stumbling across the baked beans shelves and spotting that Heinz have a 2-for-1 sale on beans.
It is the latent demant which stimulates people to buy the offer NOT the actual offer itself.
In this example, you don't have loads of people sniffing around your aisles for staple foods, it's rare any small business has this level of latent demand (think here; a Facebook Group with 10,000 members, that's your equivalent of latent demand).
So for most, their offer goes completely unnoticed in all the plethora of other market stallholders shouting, "Buy my stuff! Buy my stuff! Buy my stuff!"

On today's episode of the podcast, I'm going to be talking about one of the easiest ways to figure out how much to charge for your products or services.
Welcome back, everybody. It's your host here, Robin Waite, founder of Fearless Business, author of Take Your Shot. It's been a little while since I did a podcast. You're probably wondering why there's been several months of a hiatus. So before I dig into my simple formula for working out your products or services, I thought I would just update you as to why I've been away for a little while. Yeah, quite simply, I just found that I fell out of love with doing podcast episodes. I don't know why, and I know that it's very selfish of me, but sometimes I find when you're doing building marketing assets, you do have to find things which you are, where your energy is kind of like, without getting too woo, in the right sort of place.
So going for that, answering that question around how do you set your coaching prices when you're starting out? Well, there are a number of different ways, but I'm going to share one specifically with you, which is, I call it goal focused pricing. And it is possibly the simplest way to set your prices for your services. It does involve a bit of math. So you probably didn't wake up this morning thinking you were going to get some kind of a math test, but it's simple math, folks. Just get out a sheet of paper and just do some basic calculations or use a spreadsheet.

Paul Wilson has dedicated the last 30 years to helping people, either as The Emergency Response Manager at the Channel Tunnel and hypnotist/coach for business owners. Paul began his new career 4 years ago.
In preparation for his new venture, Paul spent much of 2018 training and learning new skills.
One of the highlights was Logan Murray's Stand Up Comedy course, during which he performed two live stand up gigs. The “graduation” gig held at The Water Rats, North London.
Paul has plenty of testimonials that showcase how he has helped clients. His favourite is probably the shorted and most direct. From Nicky Botton: “Basically, in short – you’re a fucking legend! xxx.”
What we'll be discussing on tonight's show: * How come therapy / hypnosis / nutrition / coaching trainers who sell courses to wannabe therapists DON'T provide their trainees with real, useful marketing training. * How many business problems aren't really business problems but are person problems (lack of self-belief, confidence, deterimination, inconsistency etc.)

While books do take a while to write and publish they are by far and away one of the best marketing assets that a coach and every coach can benefit from writing a book.
My books typically take 8-12 months to write and publish, but that's the hard part done as they are then free or very cheap to give away as a lead magnet.
Many people ask me, "How much information should you give away in your book?" - What they're forgetting here is that if your core coaching programme is high-ticket i.e. expensive, then a book makes learning your methodology affordable for more people...therefore you can measure your impact based on how many people download your book.
Books Increase Engagement Books hugely help with increasing engagement, Google stated in Zero Moments of Truth that you need to engage someone for 7 hours on average before they commit to buying a product or service. With the average book being 30,000 words long that means somewhere between 5-7 hours of reading time so a book is a great way to chalk off the 7 hours of engagement.
When I launched Take Your Shot I gave away about eighty copies of the book at an event I was speaking at. About three weeks after the event I received dozens of social media notifications one Sunday morning; and essentially people has the book on their bedside cabinet or desk and remembered to pick it up and read it...at which point they started sharing it on social media and leaving reviews. There's no way I could be with those 30+ people all at the same time...so books are amazing at creating engagement on your behalf.
Having a book positions you as an authority * A book enables you to get podcast interviews and speaking engagements * People will quote your book in their marketing and social media * And invite you to write forewords and quotes for their books * It leaves a legacy behind after you are gone!
Protect your methodology and Intellectual Property * In writing your book it helps you to formulate your ideas * I didn’t write Online Business Startup, it wrote me!
In this Episode I also answer the most common questions: * How much should I give away in my book? * How long should a book be? * How salesly should my book be? * How important is being a Bestseller? * How much money can you earn from writing a book?
And...How I hacked the process of writing a book… * 10 words of narrated and edited audio equates to about 1,000 words * A typical book is about 30-50,000 words long * So approximately 5-7 hours of content * …how I wrote 30,000 words in a single month

During this episode we'll be taking a look at both the advantages and disadvantages of Competitive Pricing and why it's best to use a blended pricing strategy for your coaching business. In escence; why you shouldn’t base your prices on competitors and what you should do instead.
In every industry you can add up the entire turnover generated by that industry and work out what percentage of your peers contribute to what level of value.
So, to make the numbers easier, £100 of value created by 100 coaches:

Most common mistakes entrepreneurs make when trying to boost sales/leads. In this episode I use some anecdotal experience where I mislaid £9k through not understanding the data in my Facebook Ads, spending several thousand pounds on printed advertising that yielded ZERO results...here's what I learned from those expensive mistakes and what I found to be the biggest challenges in lead generation in 2022:
In this episode I talk about: * Some Facebook ads that went wrong to the tune of £9k * Not choosing the right supplier - Buying followers on Instagram...yikes! * Spending on “Awareness” often produces little to no results: + “PR” in Magazines which don’t exist or have over-inflated promises around audience and circulation + Business events again where audiences are over-inflated + Facebook Reach advertising
So what can you do to overcome challenges in lead generation? * Ensure you implement campaigns well * Try them out for the long term * Get enough data and validation to test whether it’s working (ScoreApp versus Facebook Lead Ads) * Get a solid Sales Process in Place * Be willing to invest in Marketing (20% of your turnover or 80% of your time).

Essentially buying expensive things gives you pleasure, so we can apply some basic principles to our products in business as well. In short there are surprising benefits to having an expensive product in your suite of core products.
In this episode I talk about: * The blind taste test of two bottles of wine - essentially scientists switched the labels on two similar bottles of wine and the most expensive still came out on top both times * Apply Pareto's 80/20 principle to your suite of core products - focuses on increasing profits by removing the 20% of products producing the lowest profit * Also 80/20 your clientbase by removing the 20% of clients who contribute the least profit to your business to increase profits and create more time for yourself * Sometimes you can leverage high-priced products that don’t sell very often: + Mobile phones (iPhone, 128gb @£949, 512gb @£1249, 1tb @£1449) + Cars + Coffee * Communicate expertise, Costco sells a $600,000 diamond * Prestige - Think Jack Daniels Black Label versus Single Barrel ($50 a bottle), Silver Select ($120 a bottle) or even Sinatra Century ($600 a bottle) * Use Expensive Products as a Gimmick to Create Free Publicity - the £8,000 haircut in the Guiness Book of Records
Why most business don’t have a super expensive offer: * Because they don’t think anyone will buy it * But because it’s not on the shelf nobody EVER WILL BUY IT! * Frank Kern talk about “putting offers out there”

Most people follow all of the steps that the Gooroos and Experts tell you to follow from a marketing perspective and you have a queue of clients rolling up day-in-day out waiting to part with their cash and buy your products, right?
Not so, but why is that?
I’ve created the “perfect” 5-Step Marketing Funnel to illustrate what’s happening in 2022 with Marketing.
Here’s the five steps in my Perfect Marketing Funnel: VERY IMPORTANT! You must follow the steps down to the letter:
Don’t worry, if you’ve done the exercise, email me a screenshot of your purchase with your address and I’ll send you a signed copy of Take Your Shot, wherever you are in the world :-)
Whenever I do this exercise with a live audience there’s only ever about 30-40% of the audience who manage to download the Kindle
Effectively what this demonstrates is that there is friction in the marketplace:
What inevitably happens is that most people end up spraying marketing shit all over their prospects without realising it, believing that their marketing should simply “work”

My Guests today are Rockwell Felder and Zach Moreno who are the co-founders of SquadcastFM and the hosts of the Between 2 Mics podcast, about how they found an opportunity to make a big difference in a crowded industry. Together they are on a mission to amplify collaboration by making the process or recording podcasts as seamless and hassle free as possible. Their innovative product is fast becoming the industry standard to record shows remotely in the best sound quality possible.
SquadCast.fm, is an intuitive audio and video recording platform that is taking the podcast world by storm. Zach and Rock’s backgrounds could not be more different. Zach comes from the world of Software Engineering, where he worked for the government developing tools and apps. Rock, on the other hand, comes from the world of corporate auditing, where he worked for Moss Adams LLP in the assurance services department.
While they met in high school, they reconnected years later when their common desire to make more of an impact on the world intersected at the perfect moment. Zach had been having issues with a sci-fi drama podcast that he had created. He loved the world of podcasting, but the technical issues of producing and airing the podcast were taking the enjoyment out of the process. In that moment, Zach pitched Rock the idea that would later become SquadCast.fm.
The decision and partnership easily formed due to their shared love of podcasting and desire to empower & encourage content creators to engage in meaningful conversations without barriers. Today, some of the brightest minds in podcasting refer to SquadCast.fm as “the industry standard” to record your show remotely in the best sound quality possible. In addition to high quality remote audio recording, this year SquadCast.fm is launching high quality remote video recording capabilities.
What we’ll be discussing today: * How to start a podcast in 2020 * Taking your podcast to the next level * Tips to record a great podcast interview remotely * Leveraging high quality video to expand brand awareness * Insider tips from two tech entrepreneurs that launched their dream into reality.
What are Rockwell & Zach working on at the moment? * High quality remote videos * The Between 2 Mics podcast

My Guest today is Brian Kurtz currently the Founder of Titans Marketing. Brian Kurtz has had two careers. The first spanned 34 years as a force behind Boardroom Inc., an iconic publisher and direct marketer. During that time, he was mentored by, and worked with, a who’s who of marketing legends (who he owes everything to). And more specifically, he worked side-by-side with the most prolific copywriters who have ever lived.
His second career, which he is five years into as the Founder of Titans Marketing, is a direct marketing educational and coaching company where he has also continued working with the best-of-the-best.
Titans Marketing is known for two (soon to be three) mastermind groups, an array of classic books and swipe files Brian has re-published and created…and he is the author of two books himself.
His most recent book is Overdeliver: Build a Business for a Lifetime Playing the Long Game in Direct Response Marketing. It is his opus (but not a memoir).
His first book, The Advertising Solution, profiles six legends of advertising and copywriting including Gene Schwartz and Gary Halbert.
As a business-to-consumer marketer at Boardroom, Brian was responsible for selling over a billion dollars’ worth of products “$39 at a time” to millions.
As a business-to-business marketer with Titans Marketing, he has sold over $5 million worth of products (and services) to thousands, enabling them to spread the gospel about direct marketing to millions.
During both careers, he has been a serial direct marketer, with a foundation in the eternal truths and fundamentals of direct response…while being committed to “overdelivering” over almost four decades.
What we’ll be discussing today: * Marketing * Breakthrough Advertising Book * Overdeliver Book
What is Brian working on at the moment? Promoting Overdeliver Book Titans Xcelerator Mastermind Group

Lena Robinson’s a straight-talking Kiwi that has built a powerful reputation for herself as savvy business person in London over the last 17 years. In 2018 she threw a grenade into her life to start FTSQ. She wanted to create a community that supported non-conformists and the business owners within that community. The aim being to support them, via her consultancy, in achieving everything they were told they couldn't by F***ing with The Status Quo.
She uses all of the knowledge, experience and the huge network of people she’s gained after almost 30 years in business across multiple countries to help others. She’s had a highly successful career in 'adland', started three companies (FTSQ’s her third, she sold her second). Has traded her parents business out of near disaster when the Inland Revenue (NZ equivalent to HMRC) threatened to end them. Has mentored many bright young people that have gone on to do amazing things, and has made millions for the companies she’s worked for and with. Lena is a tenacious, force of nature. She’s a maverick, but she’s also a caregiver, she will forever watch over the non-conformists, because they often struggle to stand up for themselves, she does so because she often sees in them that others do not.
Lena believes there is power in the unconventional, the different and the unorthodox.
Here’s what we’ll be discussing on this episode: * Non-conformists. * Being a non-conformist in big agency corporate life ie WPP (OgilvyOne, OgilvyAction, Wunderman), Vizeum, Dentsu etc. * Why FTSQ Exists - what is FTSQ all about? * My life story - it's a doozy * Being a woman in business and not really feeling OK with being called a feminist - because I don't think I am Being a Kiwi in the UK There's power in your difference My illness - battling that while trying to keep my business alive
Let non-conformists know that there is a safe place to come to - FTSQ is a community where they can be weird, odd, unorthodox and know they'll be ok to be themselves there. Where one rule, rules all 'just don't be a dick'. Cause if you are, you answer to the Boss Lady and she will kick your ass out!

I’m known as the Crocodile Dundee of direct response copywriters. It’s a title I’m happy to have. I often have people try to impress me with their copy and the profits it's made them.
Yet as soon as I see their copy, I can instantly see where they are leaving money on the table. A quick “That’s not a profit! This is a profit” tweak . . . and they are making more money than they thought humanly possible.
Over the last 12 years I have mentored many copywriters across the globe.
And many of them went on to become world class and A-List copywriters and work for companies such as Agora Financial.
And I do it all while I live the International Lifestyle which began in 2006.
Long before I got into copywriting and marketing . . . I was in the banking profession.
Most of which was as a commercial lending manager.
During my banking career I estimate I interviewed over 10,000 business owners, pulled apart in excess of 35,000 sets of financial statements over a 20 year banking career.
This included 5 years as a self-employed commercial finance broker . . . brokering multi-million dollar deals for my clients between the greedy banks.
Since 2001, my breakthrough advertising and marketing strategies have consistently helped my clients double, triple, even quadruple their business.
At times . . . even more.
Here’s what Matt Furey (one of the speakers) said about me.
“Trevor Crook has a rare ability to find the financial leaks in any business that most great entrepreneurs cannot see. Once found, his powerful and insightful marketing methods quickly increase income while creating customer loyalty.
If you want the 'straight-scoop' with zero fluff, then pay attention to everything Trevor teaches about copywriting and marketing.
He is one of those rare marketers who can turn words into a magic elixir . . . from the stage or through his sensational copy. He has a knack for turning lemons into lemonade . . .”
In this Episode we’ll be talking about: * Living The International Lifestyle. * How to turn your words into cash.

Entrepreneurs with big growth goals realize there’s a substantial gap between where they are now and where they want to be. Sharon Cully, owner and founder of Simply Processes, knows the best way to close that gap is through a clear, robust vision and well-crafted processes all with the right level of focus.
Over the course of 15+ years managing teams and leading projects in blue chip FMCG companies (including Coca-Cola, Diageo and GlaxoSmithKline), Sharon has successfully employed best practices and process improvement methods to increase performance and minimize inventory/operating costs, all while meeting customer objectives. She’s learned what it takes for large companies to succeed and grow, and that ongoing, recurring problems can kill business growth.
Sharon founded Simply Processes as a way to utilize her corporate experience to help smaller entrepreneurial companies gain control over their business processes, ultimately making more money while also freeing up the owner’s time, giving them more choices – to grow or sell their business, or simply work less. She works with entrepreneurs who have already been successful, but are now feeling stuck, helping them scale to the next level by working with their teams to put systems and processes in place. Clear, documented tasks and responsibilities, along with successful automation and delegation, ensure that everyone delivers consistently outstanding results.
Sharon is based in the UK but also spends a few months a year visiting family in New Zealand and South Africa, successfully avoiding the winter! Owning an online coaching and consulting business fits in well with her travels.
What we cover during the episode: * Setting goals for your business and how to go about reaching them * Why processes are critical to achieving your big growth goals * Clarifying your personal measures of success - not always measured in dollar terms * How to bring your team with you on a change journey * Coaching and developing your team to get the best from them

Native South African, David Stafford's parents originate from the UK.
Nothing much on early life, except I did kind of beat a Mild version of Thyroid Cancer as a teenager.
My career path started when I studied Finance in Uni to get into the hedgefund world, but in my Third year - I had a change of heart. I job-shadowed a Portfolio Manager for big local hedge fund and all I saw was that this career would be the death of me.
So, midway in my third year, I did a lot of self-development, exploring options across the board. Rich Dad Poor Dad made me realize I needed to become a Business Owner.
And from there I met my first mentor: Ryan Sletcher. He brought me into the Internet Marketing World and brought out my love for advertising.
From there, after learning all about Info Product Marketing from him - I went my own way, freelanced and had projects working with awesome companies from all over the world. Education Brands, Local Celebs, Growing Tech Companies etc.
Decided to focus down on the Therapy industry after I saw amazing results working with a local Reflexologist and as I speak, am now making the transition from the Agency business model, to the consulting business model.
David will soon be launching Client Engine which is an Lead Generation Accelerator programme for Therapists...watch this space.
What we’ll be covering on this Episode: * Advertising Strategies, Platforms & Practices that work in 2020 * When to start advertising for yourself * Changing business models and what it takes to build a killer coaching/consulting program (feel like you and I can rap on that one for a bit.) * One type of advert you can make RIGHT NOW, that can bring in new clients by this time next week. * What it takes to succeed with advertising * A bit on how to scale (we'll leave the juicy parts for your Fearless Business Group ;) )

A message from Dino Tartaglia - Heading for my bus pass (as I write this (not literally, but in years 😉), I've taken my original training as an Electrical & Electronics Engineer, then Chartered Engineer and finally as a Business Development guy, and used this to advise, troubleshoot, build, shut down and otherwise help 1,000+ companies from Globals to kitchen-table operations, in 20+ countries, across 5 continents for 30+ years.
Part-mentor, part-coach, part-troubleshooter and ALL business, I've been operational in the online space for a couple of years now running Success Engineers as a JV with my good friend, Simon Hartley, World Class Sports Psych and Coach.
We help Expert Business owners clarify & simplify what they are in business to do (which they've often lost sight of), and then help them achieve exactly that.
We've developed a different way of looking at business and how it is (and should be) run and our real M.O. is taking insights from the very best in the world and helping others adopt those principles to improve their personal performance, their team's performance (where relevant) and the performance of their business.
On this episode we discuss: * Concept: The Boat [Components of a Successful Business Vehicle] * Concept: Character-led Business. Why mindset is not the real success factor in business... * "Traits before States" * Philosophy: Better Thinking Builds Better Business * Idea: Choosing your client based on Character and Disposition, not just demographics & psychographics, etc * Approach: Seduced by Complexity. Why Simple is Best (Tina Turner had it [almost] right)

Your New Years Resolutions WILL FAIL Why?
Well, there are three main reasons:
REASON #1
Your New Year Resolution is simply TOO BIG.
If you want to succeed at your New Years Resolution then START NOW.
You need to start planning your resolution now, breaking your big goal down into smaller achievable milestones. Otherwise, you'll start on Jan 1st and the goal you've set for yourself will simply be too big.
A resolution is for life NOT JUST for New Year.
Better to CHOOSE TO START YOUR RESOLUTION NOW...
...Than to put it off for another Month until you are "forced" into taking action.
REASON #2
You are fighting the Reptile part of your brain.
When you start in the New Year, you will immediately be triggering Fight, Flight or Freeze because you are trying to do something that you've been putting off until now.
You haven't got your brain comfortable and desensitised to the new behaviour patterns.
This is the most likely reason you will fail because those first 30 days will feel really bloody uncomfortable.
So, start training your reptile NOW.
REASON #3
You did it just because it's a New Year Resolution.
Basically your "WHY" needs to be much stronger than it's a New Year Resolution.
You must have a specific goal in mind to achieve with your new lifestyle change, as well as determined the activities you'll be doing to achieve that goal and FINALLY have a MASSIVE DESIRE to achieve the goal.
Otherwise, you'll be apathetic towards your resolution and not complete it.

My guest this week is the master of disruption and branding expert, Danny Matthews:
Danny founded, Mortgy, an app which disrupted the Mortgage market by making the application process so much more simple. Danny was approached by a series of investors, but felt that the "app had done it's job well" and that there was nothing really for people to invest in. So, instead made it available for the greater good.
That process of creation and design led to Danny founding The danny&co. design studio which came about because of a deep desire to create powerful brands with people I believe in.
During the interview we discuss the power of branding, business automation, buffer, zapier, scheduling tools and the benefits they bring to businesses.

Some things I've noticed about Coaches and Consultants: * They are super bright, intelligent people * They have an inordinate number of skills and amount knowledge * Absolutely love helping their clients Get AMAZING results for their client
And yet: * They work all hours under the sun For maybe 4-5 days per month * Earning less than the average national wage * Are completely exhausted If they stop working/selling then their business dies a slow and painful death
So, if any of that resonates then my little bonus episode might help you to understand why this is happening.
Basically you are struggling to articulate your value and undercharging for your services. This is because your clients' perceived value is based on the attachment to your time and NOT the results and outcomes you can deliver for them.
This episode of the podcast will change that. I refer to some slides in the episode, as the audio came from a webinar I delivered, if you'd like the slides then let me know - robin@fearless.biz.
Also, if this resonates then let's jump on a call - https://fearless.biz/app - and I'll help you to articulate your value and get you earning more money!

Which marketing strategy consistently delivers the best ROI?
Over the last ten years, we’ve spent thousands of hours testing and executing dozens of different strategies. In total they’ve produced over 50,000 customers and have generated significant revenue. But which strategy consistently delivered the highest ROI? The clear winner, with a 16X ROI, is the customer win-back campaign.
And these campaigns can deliver a superior ROI for almost any type of organization. That’s why businesses ranging from small SaaS companies to billion-dollar enterprises like Dollar Shave Club use them. Why do they work so well? It boils down to this … It’s tough to get a new customer - but it’s relatively easy to win a former customer back. Dan talked about their unique 4-Step Process:
Dan talked about several books and business resources: * The Harvard Business Review, March 2016: https://hbr.org/product/harvard-business-review-march-2016/BR1603-MAG-EN * 7 Habits of Highly Effective People: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Habits-Highly-Effective-People/dp/0684858398 * Outliers – Malcolm Gladwell: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Outliers-Story-Success-Malcolm-Gladwell/dp/0141036257/ * Focus – Daniel Goleman: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Focus-Hidden-Excellence-Daniel-Goleman/dp/1408845881/ * Blue Ocean Strategy: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Blue-Ocean-Strategy-Expanded-Uncontested/dp/1625274491/

Jon Buchan is the leader of a 11,000+ strong community dedicated to the "Charm Offensive" approach, a unique cold sales approach which is uniquely powerful and really works. His approach has led to booking meetings with the likes of Redbull, Pepsi, Hewlett Packard, Symantec, and countless other global brands and corporations.
Jon now helps ambitious founders and sales teams stand out, book sales opportunities with their ideal clients, and build their influence online.
During my interview with Jon we discuss: * How marketing is about repelling the wrong sorts of clients from our businesses as much as it is about attracting the right clients into our business – and if you’re going to do that at least let’s make it a fun process. * How imperfect action every day beats perfect action hands down. * Forget the platitudes and be mindful about how you utilise your time because life is too short.
Jon also mentioned Dave Trott’s YouTube Channel where he talks about 3 simple steps in marketing:

Having worked with hundreds of business owners, it's become clear to me that there is really only ONE WAY to grow a business, so I'll be sharing that with you in this Podcast episode.
But before I do that, for those who don't know me, my name is Robin Waite, I am the Founder of the Fearless Business Accelerator and I help coaches, consultants and freelancers to stop selling their souls and start to sell to their clients based on results.

This allows them to get out of the Sales Cycle of Doom (sell -> deliver -> sell -> deliver -> sell -> deliver etc) and instead, charge more for their products and services and create a full and remarkable solution.
By the way, what I've described above is WAY #1 to grow your business...do tons of marketing, sell more of the same product or service and burn yourself out in the process of trying.
WAY #2 is to cut costs...nuff said.
But... WAY #3 involves raising your prices so you are selling based on results and not based on the number of hours you work. Get that nailed and you can afford to have fewer clients, and still make more money than you were previously.

In today's Fearless Business Podcast episode we interview Ed Rich MBA, self-proclaimed polymath, marketing expert and funnel hacker.
Ed helps coaches who are authors, generate highly qualified leads predictably with distribution of their books and automated webinar events. He does this by building unique customer journeys that are optimised to generate higher customer lifetime value for you.
Most coaches author their book thinking that it will generate leads for them. But once they publish it, the books end up waiting for the light of the day in their garage.
Your book is just a vehicle to carry your message from your garage to the hands of your ideal coaching client. A vehicle needs an infrastructure to go from this point to the reader’s hands. I build this infrastructure, let’s call it a customer journey or marketing funnel, that get this book in the hand of people who are most likely to be your best clients ever.
If you are a coach would like to get OVERBOOKED with coaching appointments, Ed invites you to have a "Simplify My Marketing Strategy Session" where we'll go through a diagnosis of your core three pillars and build strategy for the same:
