Earning the ask is based on our company's philosophy of Engagement Equity and is all about giving your clients or prospects value and earning the right to ask them to take an action. That action can be to visit your website, come to an event you are hosting, leave you a review, or, ultimately, buy your product or service. Too many entrepreneurs ASK without first earning the right to do so. They sell, sell, sell and never think about first giving value and establishing trust.
I am the current owner of Pixel Fire Marketing, an online marketing company based in Omaha, NE. I have more than 20 years of experience in print and online marketing as well as content creation. I focus on helping small to medium-sized businesses grow their businesses through Engagement Equity and enhancing the customer journey.

Segment 1: The Concept of Radiating Outward and How Knowing Yourself is Never Over
Radiating outward starts will filling your own circle.
Never stop knowing—it’s dangerous to think you’ll ever truly know yourself.
Mindset and knowing yourself.
Segment 4: FAQ Section 3: EE in Relationships
Recurring vs random
Recurring: show up for the groups (physically and mentally), give value by speaking, providing leads and tips to others, talking up others in the group, not dominating the group
Random: choose one or two people you want to build a relationship with and quickly earn the right to ask them for another meeting
Singular vs collective
Collective: give value to the group as a whole
Singular: do one to ones so you can get to know individual members and can then practice The Platinum Rule
Be a Giver (Give and Take by Adam Grant)
As a leader, realize a paycheck is NOT giving value (the paycheck and what the employee agrees to do to earn the paycheck is a contract. You need to go above and beyond to give value)
Yes. Significant others—continue to get to know them and learn about them throughout the relationship. We make the mistake of thinking we KNOW the ones closest to us and that we don’t have to work on it any longer.
Eg: Todd—things that used to be triggers and I had to tiptoe around, he’s worked on. If I still treat him like that, he gets angry because I’m not acknowledging his growth. Eg of wanting to meet with Patrick and his wife…
This is the most important part of the whole concept—radiate outward. How?
--Get to know yourself. Intro or extro? Social gas tank? What gives you energy and what takes it away?
--Learn to say no
--Take time for you—whatever that means
--Help others get to know you
--Understand that you can be happy even when others aren’t—concept of tuning in to your own radio station

Segment 1: FAQ Section 1
Think of each relationship, either singular or collective, as a bank account.
Eg: You have an employee whose name you barely know, you never talk to, you treat the same way as you treat everyone else who works for you. You have a big project and ask that employee to stay late to finish it, even though they won’t get paid any extra because they are on salary. How do you think that employee would react?
Now, imagine this same scenario, except you’ve taken the time to get to know this employee. You took her out for coffee after she was hired, you meet with her a couple of times a month to see how things are going, you know her name, her kids’ names, and that she likes Starbucks gift cards as a thank you for a job well done. Now what happens when you ask her to stay late?

Segment 1: Habits and Perceptions
A habit requires no decision—the decision is already made. Habits eliminate the need for self-control.
The more we do something, the easier it becomes to keep doing it.
Habits tend to revolve around our Tendency: upholders, questioners, obligers, rebels.
We live our lives not how we think of ourselves or how others think of us, but how we THINK that others think of us.
Do we perceive people as being good? Bad? Brene Brown: our lives are much happier when we truly believe that people are doing the best they can with the tools they currently have.

Segment 1: Why It’s Important to Identify Your Target Market
When You Market to Everyone, You Market to No One
Your Customers Want to Feel Like Individuals
You Need to Know Your Target to Hone Your Message
You Can More Easily Be Flexible When You Have a Target Market
Segment 2: Power Players: Curiosity and Listening
· Ask questions and listen to the answers.
· When you are curious, you learn more and retain information better.
· Your target audience will tell you exactly what to do if you ask the right questions.
· To be more curious, hang out with other curious people, be open to change and the unexpected, and read outside your comfort zone.
· Many think they are good listeners but most people feel others don’t listen to them.
· What we really do when we appear to be listening.
· There is no curiosity without listening and vice versa.
· When you listen, you become interesting by being interested.
Segment 3: Using Curiosity and Listening to Identify Your Target Market and Hone Your Message
· Ask questions to identify target (social media, in your networking circles, do research, send out surveys, etc.)
· Once you get answers, ask more questions
· You can’t be curious without listening.
· Give space.
· Pause.
· Listen to the right people.
Segment 4: How to Continue to be Flexible and Enhance Your Market and Message
Don’t get married to one target.
Keep listening and keep being curious to see how your target or their needs are changing.
As your product or service grows, your target may change.
Never stop listening or being curious.
