    want to hear something insane every 6
  • 00:00:02
    seconds acquisition. comom portfolio
  • 00:00:04
    companies get a new lead so I'm going to
  • 00:00:07
    teach you how to get new customers so
  • 00:00:09
    fast it feels illegal and as I've done
  • 00:00:11
    this we've gotten three leads one at the
  • 00:00:13
    first second one at the 6C one at the 12
  • 00:00:15
    seconds and right now we just got
  • 00:00:17
    another lead and so the first way to do
  • 00:00:20
    this every business wants more leads but
  • 00:00:22
    none of them want to give good stuff
  • 00:00:24
    away for free and so my favorite
  • 00:00:27
    marketing strategy for getting tons of
  • 00:00:30
    leads is step one look at what other
  • 00:00:33
    people are charging for step two look at
  • 00:00:36
    the Hard costs of what it would cost for
  • 00:00:38
    you to deliver it step three give that
  • 00:00:41
    thing away for free step four see how
  • 00:00:44
    many leads you get step five see how
  • 00:00:47
    many you convert so this is the idea is
  • 00:00:50
    that you can give something
  • 00:00:51
    significantly better away for free than
  • 00:00:53
    everyone else does ideally something
  • 00:00:55
    that other people actually charge for
  • 00:00:58
    and when if you really want to be a
  • 00:00:59
    Savage about it which why wouldn't you
  • 00:01:01
    want to be a Savage about it you make it
  • 00:01:03
    even better than what they have now
  • 00:01:05
    number two these kind of bets are hard
  • 00:01:08
    for an employee to make because if you
  • 00:01:11
    are somebody who's a an awesome marketer
  • 00:01:14
    or that's your your primary skills
  • 00:01:16
    you're good at promotion you're good at
  • 00:01:17
    advertising then I have made this
  • 00:01:20
    mistake before and I've gotten too far
  • 00:01:22
    away all right so this is where
  • 00:01:24
    everyone's working everyone's doing this
  • 00:01:25
    I don't know why it's a hashtag but this
  • 00:01:27
    is what work looks like and this is me
  • 00:01:29
    over here not doing the work what
  • 00:01:31
    happens is this distance basically
  • 00:01:33
    dilutes down my marketing skills and I
  • 00:01:37
    end up basically having a department of
  • 00:01:40
    people that are using their best skill
  • 00:01:42
    set rather than mine and so the business
  • 00:01:45
    loses the biggest asset it has which is
  • 00:01:48
    me or you and so like Mr Beast is still
  • 00:01:52
    involved in the creation of his videos
  • 00:01:54
    Steve Jobs still approved every final ad
  • 00:01:57
    that went out for Apple so Legend says
  • 00:01:59
    and so I think that the traditional
  • 00:02:02
    setup is for the most part made by
  • 00:02:04
    corporates who aren't Founders who
  • 00:02:07
    aren't driving output they're just like
  • 00:02:09
    meeting quarterly earnings they're
  • 00:02:11
    they're not really changing the world
  • 00:02:13
    and so I have put my my big kind of
  • 00:02:18
    words on
  • 00:02:22
    this fewer better and what that means is
  • 00:02:27
    that you're going to have to back up
  • 00:02:28
    your investment and talent
  • 00:02:30
    with finances and so what I mean by that
  • 00:02:33
    is if you were to build an department
  • 00:02:37
    and say okay I need to hire a few people
  • 00:02:39
    for $775,000 a year okay just use it as
  • 00:02:42
    simple math well those may be a players
  • 00:02:46
    b players C players who knows but an a
  • 00:02:50
    player may be able to do quite literally
  • 00:02:53
    five times 10 times the output 25 times
  • 00:02:56
    the output of a b player and and so
  • 00:03:00
    marketing is one of these roles that has
  • 00:03:01
    tremendous leverage and so in thinking
  • 00:03:04
    about this I think I've changed the way
  • 00:03:06
    that I see building marketing
  • 00:03:07
    departments
  • 00:03:09
    phenomenally which is most similar role
  • 00:03:12
    in a business that I can think of that
  • 00:03:14
    we have in the portfolio is actually a
  • 00:03:16
    developer so hear me out developers
  • 00:03:19
    typically have technical career paths
  • 00:03:21
    which means that you can be a level one
  • 00:03:23
    level two level three level four level
  • 00:03:24
    five all the way up and as they go up
  • 00:03:26
    they make more money and the reason for
  • 00:03:28
    that is because one amazing developer
  • 00:03:30
    can make something that millions of
  • 00:03:32
    people see so one of the old Legends of
  • 00:03:34
    Google is that there was a particularly
  • 00:03:36
    amazing coder they had bought some old
  • 00:03:38
    version of Google Maps as an acquisition
  • 00:03:41
    they kept trying to deal with the code
  • 00:03:42
    and then one really high leverage coder
  • 00:03:45
    remade the entire product over a weekend
  • 00:03:48
    and then that is ultimately what became
  • 00:03:50
    the codebase that we still use today as
  • 00:03:52
    Google Maps and so one man made that
  • 00:03:55
    that's how much skill he was able to
  • 00:03:58
    bring to the table now here's where it
  • 00:04:00
    makes sense from a business
  • 00:04:01
    perspective that one guy maybe you have
  • 00:04:04
    to pay him 10 times more than a
  • 00:04:06
    traditional coder but if that guy can
  • 00:04:09
    make a million times the output of one
  • 00:04:12
    guy then it's still an amazing deal and
  • 00:04:15
    so the thing is that there is outsized
  • 00:04:17
    Returns on Talent at the top end and
  • 00:04:19
    there's a reason that the biggest
  • 00:04:22
    technology companies the biggest
  • 00:04:23
    companies in the world are in a war for
  • 00:04:25
    talent I was thinking about this as it
  • 00:04:27
    relates to marketing because in many of
  • 00:04:29
    the the businesses that I've started
  • 00:04:31
    marketing has been traditionally underst
  • 00:04:32
    staffed or overstaffed rarely
  • 00:04:35
    appropriately staffed it's understaffed
  • 00:04:38
    when it's really just me and like a
  • 00:04:39
    couple people and when we do that it's
  • 00:04:42
    because I have a ton of skills in
  • 00:04:44
    marketing and so we can get away with
  • 00:04:46
    very few people on the flip side when I
  • 00:04:48
    get too far away I usually bring someone
  • 00:04:50
    in and they just bring a lot of bodies
  • 00:04:52
    but what ends up happening is that the
  • 00:04:54
    output goes down a lot and so at gym
  • 00:04:56
    launch there was a period of time where
  • 00:04:57
    we had 17 people in marketing and once I
  • 00:05:00
    got rid of the leader I moved in and I
  • 00:05:03
    took the team from 17 to five and then
  • 00:05:06
    output tripled and so I say this because
  • 00:05:08
    the people who have skills are the ones
  • 00:05:10
    that are moving the needle and so if I
  • 00:05:12
    have three guys for
  • 00:05:16
    75k and they create 3x output one of the
  • 00:05:21
    really interesting things about
  • 00:05:22
    knowledge work specifically marketing
  • 00:05:24
    coding is one of these is that the
  • 00:05:26
    difference between the best guy and the
  • 00:05:28
    worst guy in marketing
  • 00:05:30
    isn't like the best guy who can cut a
  • 00:05:33
    lawn and the worst guy who can cut a
  • 00:05:35
    lawn the worst guy who can cut a lawn
  • 00:05:36
    maybe it takes him an entire day and the
  • 00:05:38
    best guy maybe takes him you know a
  • 00:05:40
    third of a day because he's sprinting
  • 00:05:41
    the whole time so maybe you get a 3X
  • 00:05:43
    increase because somebody is better and
  • 00:05:46
    so you'd be limited by how much you'd be
  • 00:05:48
    able to pay someone more for that
  • 00:05:50
    quality and that
  • 00:05:51
    speed whereas with somebody in marketing
  • 00:05:55
    somebody who's a zero marketer versus a
  • 00:05:57
    10 marketer the 10 marketer might
  • 00:05:59
    literally be able to do a 100 million
  • 00:06:01
    times more of the output because one guy
  • 00:06:04
    with skill and an iPhone can get 100
  • 00:06:06
    million view video and that kind of
  • 00:06:08
    Leverage is why it pays to pay better
  • 00:06:11
    and so this is something that I've been
  • 00:06:13
    obsessed with uh of late and I'm trying
  • 00:06:16
    to relay this to each of the portfolio
  • 00:06:17
    Founders in making sure that we're
  • 00:06:19
    keeping the marketing divisions tight so
  • 00:06:22
    that we have the highest leverag people
  • 00:06:24
    in the highest leverag positions with
  • 00:06:27
    incentivized performance so that we
  • 00:06:30
    access their discretionary effort to
  • 00:06:31
    maximize their skill sets the most
  • 00:06:34
    important thing that you can take away
  • 00:06:36
    from this is that the best advertisers
  • 00:06:39
    don't need many people and if you have
  • 00:06:42
    no one who's in your quote marketing
  • 00:06:44
    department that means you and it's a
  • 00:06:47
    game that you have to learn there are a
  • 00:06:48
    few things that every founder has to
  • 00:06:50
    learn at a basic level you have to know
  • 00:06:52
    the core business you have to know how
  • 00:06:54
    to get customers you have to know how to
  • 00:06:55
    deliver customers just about everything
  • 00:06:57
    else you can Outsource but those two
  • 00:06:58
    things are core to every business and so
  • 00:07:01
    if you don't know how to get new
  • 00:07:02
    customers you need to fix that so the
  • 00:07:04
    next big one that can get you more
  • 00:07:07
    outsize customers than anything else is
  • 00:07:09
    answering a specific question which I
  • 00:07:11
    ask as a great thought exercise with our
  • 00:07:13
    team is what would it
  • 00:07:20
    take to be number
  • 00:07:25
    one and another way of asking this
  • 00:07:27
    question is what what else would have to
  • 00:07:30
    be true for us to be number one in our
  • 00:07:32
    market and so when we actually
  • 00:07:35
    hypothesize about this we think okay
  • 00:07:37
    what would it look like for us to be
  • 00:07:39
    number one what else would have to be
  • 00:07:40
    true what else would have to have
  • 00:07:42
    occurred what's interesting about this
  • 00:07:43
    question is that it circumvents the
  • 00:07:46
    traditional incremental thinking meaning
  • 00:07:48
    instead of saying okay we're just going
  • 00:07:49
    to do 10% more we're going to do 10%
  • 00:07:51
    better we're going to do 20% better when
  • 00:07:52
    you start with the end in mind from a
  • 00:07:55
    what would it take for us to be number
  • 00:07:57
    one we assume the goal outcome and the
  • 00:08:00
    crazy thing about this question is that
  • 00:08:01
    you might be 1/ 100th the size of the
  • 00:08:04
    number one player in the market but it
  • 00:08:06
    assumes what it would take to be a 100
  • 00:08:08
    times bigger and then it gets reverse
  • 00:08:10
    engineered into the present and so what
  • 00:08:12
    happens often times when I ask this
  • 00:08:14
    question is they usually State one or
  • 00:08:17
    two key big things that would have to
  • 00:08:19
    happen for the business to be number one
  • 00:08:22
    and then I ask what would it cost for us
  • 00:08:25
    to do that do we have the resources in
  • 00:08:27
    order to make that happen and more times
  • 00:08:30
    than not we actually have the resources
  • 00:08:32
    to make that happen then the next actual
  • 00:08:34
    question is then why are we not putting
  • 00:08:36
    every one of the resources we have right
  • 00:08:38
    now towards making that come true rather
  • 00:08:41
    than just continuing on the path that
  • 00:08:43
    we're on and so this is an order of
  • 00:08:45
    magnitude increase in terms of business
  • 00:08:47
    growth and ultimately what generates the
  • 00:08:49
    most leads and customers and so when I
  • 00:08:52
    ask myself this question years ago it
  • 00:08:55
    was what would it take for me to be the
  • 00:08:57
    number one business Channel right what
  • 00:09:00
    would it take for that to happen the
  • 00:09:01
    question beyond that was what would it
  • 00:09:02
    take for us to be able to have one of
  • 00:09:04
    the best investment firms in the world
  • 00:09:06
    and I was like well I would have to have
  • 00:09:08
    many many many more years of experience
  • 00:09:09
    it's like I don't know if I can do that
  • 00:09:11
    I can't make time happen faster so then
  • 00:09:13
    I followed with okay so for me to be the
  • 00:09:15
    best investor then what I would want is
  • 00:09:17
    the most deal flow so what are the
  • 00:09:19
    different ways of creating deal flow one
  • 00:09:21
    of them is you can just go to broker
  • 00:09:22
    networks so you go to investment bankers
  • 00:09:24
    you get them to send you deals and then
  • 00:09:26
    you bid on those deals but if I want to
  • 00:09:28
    be the best investor in the world then I
  • 00:09:29
    need deals that only come to me and so I
  • 00:09:32
    was like okay well thankfully I'm pretty
  • 00:09:34
    good at marketing and so I was like why
  • 00:09:36
    don't I like what would what would have
  • 00:09:37
    to be true for me to get lots of inbound
  • 00:09:39
    deal flow I was like okay well probably
  • 00:09:41
    building a massive brand around business
  • 00:09:43
    and so then the the question was how do
  • 00:09:46
    I build the number one brand business
  • 00:09:49
    online and so it's the series of
  • 00:09:51
    questions that I asked and then it was
  • 00:09:53
    okay well I should probably start making
  • 00:09:55
    content around this and I should
  • 00:09:56
    probably write a book or something that
  • 00:09:59
    would do really well that is in the
  • 00:10:01
    business space that business owners
  • 00:10:03
    would read and then think wow this guy
  • 00:10:05
    knows what he's talking about and so by
  • 00:10:07
    doing those things by publishing the
  • 00:10:09
    books by making the content consistently
  • 00:10:11
    and the moment I realized that that was
  • 00:10:12
    what it would take I basically put all
  • 00:10:14
    of my resources towards doing that
  • 00:10:16
    despite the fact that in the moment it
  • 00:10:18
    basically meant nothing it meant that I
  • 00:10:19
    had to go write a book it meant that I
  • 00:10:20
    had to start making content but I did
  • 00:10:22
    all of those things because I thought
  • 00:10:24
    for me to be number one I need to have
  • 00:10:26
    proprietary deal flow for me to have
  • 00:10:27
    proprietary deal flow I need to have a
  • 00:10:29
    big big business brand for me to have a
  • 00:10:30
    big business brand I need to make more
  • 00:10:32
    content that's better than everybody
  • 00:10:33
    else and so that's what I'll start doing
  • 00:10:34
    now and that's where I'll allocate my
  • 00:10:36
    resources even though I could have done
  • 00:10:37
    a lot of different things that was the
  • 00:10:39
    one that I felt at the time would give
  • 00:10:40
    me the most leverage and so far it has
  • 00:10:42
    worked out but asking that type of
  • 00:10:44
    question you don't get to that type of
  • 00:10:46
    solution unless you ask the what would
  • 00:10:47
    it take to be number one and then
  • 00:10:50
    sometimes the answer surprise you
  • 00:10:51
    because you do have the resources to do
  • 00:10:53
    it you just haven't yet and the reason
  • 00:10:55
    this question is so powerful is actually
  • 00:10:57
    from Step schwarzman so in in his book
  • 00:10:59
    or his autobiography I think it's what
  • 00:11:01
    it takes I think it's what it's called
  • 00:11:03
    he has this really amazing uh opening
  • 00:11:05
    couple of chapters and he talks about
  • 00:11:07
    this idea of thinking big and he says
  • 00:11:09
    building a really big business is hard
  • 00:11:11
    building a small business is hard so
  • 00:11:14
    basically it's just about as hard to do
  • 00:11:16
    anything because hard is a constant so
  • 00:11:18
    you might as well go after something
  • 00:11:20
    really big with the equivalent amounts
  • 00:11:22
    of hardness now we can get into
  • 00:11:24
    difficulty levels or whatever but
  • 00:11:25
    basically the upside of the incremental
  • 00:11:29
    inre in hardness is
  • 00:11:31
    outsized and so if you want to build a
  • 00:11:34
    really successful restaurant it's going
  • 00:11:35
    to take you a really long time if the
  • 00:11:37
    man it's lots of people and and it's
  • 00:11:39
    it's a tough business and if you want to
  • 00:11:41
    build one of the top software companies
  • 00:11:42
    in the world it's also going to take a
  • 00:11:44
    long time and be really hard but one of
  • 00:11:46
    those could get you into the many
  • 00:11:48
    billions and one of them will probably
  • 00:11:49
    cap at a million dollars or $2 million a
  • 00:11:51
    year and so in thinking about that both
  • 00:11:54
    of them require the same internal
  • 00:11:56
    resources from you but very different
  • 00:11:58
    external resources and so it's like you
  • 00:11:59
    might as well solve for the biggest
  • 00:12:01
    thing and this is about resourcefulness
  • 00:12:03
    not resources if we wanted to be number
  • 00:12:05
    one in the market part of having propri
  • 00:12:07
    to De flow comes with two big advantages
  • 00:12:10
    and this works the same if you're
  • 00:12:11
    selling customers the same idea selling
  • 00:12:12
    a vacuum but there's there's two
  • 00:12:15
    different ways that you can sell in a
  • 00:12:16
    vacuum and the reason selling a vacuum
  • 00:12:17
    is so important is because when you sell
  • 00:12:19
    in a vacuum you no longer have to
  • 00:12:20
    compete on price or in my instance terms
  • 00:12:23
    and so the first is you sell where no
  • 00:12:26
    one else is selling so that's you find
  • 00:12:28
    the little Pond where there are no other
  • 00:12:30
    fishermen and then you fish there and
  • 00:12:32
    you get all the fish you want the second
  • 00:12:35
    way is to sell something that no one
  • 00:12:37
    else sells and so one is a
  • 00:12:41
    where thing and the other is a what
  • 00:12:44
    thing so either you create something
  • 00:12:46
    unique that you have some sort of
  • 00:12:48
    feature or service that no one else can
  • 00:12:49
    do because you have some sort of
  • 00:12:50
    technological advantage fundamentally
  • 00:12:52
    this is what Elon does in every one of
  • 00:12:53
    his businesses he's happy to go where
  • 00:12:55
    it's super competitive but he just sells
  • 00:12:57
    something that no one else can sell and
  • 00:12:58
    then he can command a premium price for
  • 00:13:00
    it the alternative is to be good at
  • 00:13:04
    providing value at scale to people so
  • 00:13:07
    you get inbound demand and then at that
  • 00:13:09
    point they're not choosing between you
  • 00:13:10
    and six other people they're saying I'm
  • 00:13:12
    either working with you or I'm not doing
  • 00:13:13
    it all right this next one is huge which
  • 00:13:17
    is pre is greater than post or uh an
  • 00:13:22
    ounce of pre is worth a pound of post
  • 00:13:24
    all right so as I've advertised in many
  • 00:13:28
    different ways and many different
  • 00:13:29
    channels for different Industries I have
  • 00:13:31
    seen this consistently be reinforced for
  • 00:13:34
    me what happens for most people is they
  • 00:13:36
    forget to advertise and then they try
  • 00:13:38
    and play catchup and they hop in front
  • 00:13:40
    of the camera they sit in front of the
  • 00:13:41
    computer and they start typing things
  • 00:13:42
    out and then they hit post they hit
  • 00:13:44
    submit they run the ad they they post
  • 00:13:46
    content this then gets propagated as the
  • 00:13:49
    process and so they hire more people and
  • 00:13:51
    then they more or less do the same thing
  • 00:13:53
    and then when the stuff sucks they say
  • 00:13:55
    we'll fix it in post but the problem is
  • 00:13:58
    is that post has very low leverage and
  • 00:14:00
    very high cost whereas pre has
  • 00:14:02
    incredibly High leverage and very low
  • 00:14:05
    cost but it just takes more mental work
  • 00:14:07
    so let me break this down an idea for a
  • 00:14:09
    video for example has tremendous
  • 00:14:12
    leverage more leverage than just about
  • 00:14:15
    everything else if there is a video
  • 00:14:17
    concept that more people would click and
  • 00:14:20
    watch to see that idea itself even
  • 00:14:23
    poorly executed will get an order of
  • 00:14:26
    magnitude greater amounts of people to
  • 00:14:28
    watch the content or watch the ad than
  • 00:14:31
    otherwise and so putting more time into
  • 00:14:34
    pre is the highest leverage activity
  • 00:14:36
    that you can do and so more of my time
  • 00:14:40
    now when I make ads for example for
  • 00:14:42
    school I will spend on the
  • 00:14:45
    pre-production that will be looking at
  • 00:14:47
    past ads that performed well looking at
  • 00:14:49
    the hooks that continue to to do well
  • 00:14:51
    making sure that we have some props and
  • 00:14:53
    things like that that we can use as
  • 00:14:54
    visual aids and then when we actually do
  • 00:14:57
    the recording it's very short and the
  • 00:14:59
    the post- production because all of the
  • 00:15:00
    work is already in the video there's
  • 00:15:02
    very little that must be done afterwards
  • 00:15:04
    and so what happens is the rate of
  • 00:15:06
    progress and output increases to use a a
  • 00:15:10
    big word
  • 00:15:12
    tremendously and so the only reason for
  • 00:15:15
    post- production especially in education
  • 00:15:18
    is to enhance comprehension meaning to
  • 00:15:21
    make it easier for people to get what
  • 00:15:24
    the video is about and this is different
  • 00:15:27
    than an entertainment where a lot of the
  • 00:15:29
    emphasis on post but for the vast
  • 00:15:31
    majority of businesses their advertising
  • 00:15:34
    and marketing comes down to educating
  • 00:15:36
    the customer or potential customer and
  • 00:15:38
    if education is the type of advertising
  • 00:15:41
    you do which is what most businesses do
  • 00:15:43
    then you need to put more into do people
  • 00:15:47
    find this interesting can I make it
  • 00:15:49
    simple rather than I'm just going to hit
  • 00:15:51
    record and see what happens yeah and the
  • 00:15:53
    thing that shifted my perspective on
  • 00:15:55
    This was um I think it's called calculus
  • 00:15:57
    Walla but it's this Indian Channel
  • 00:15:59
    where there's a guy who's like 20
  • 00:16:00
    million subscribers and he teaches like
  • 00:16:03
    physics Walla and like calculus and
  • 00:16:05
    these different classes and his videos
  • 00:16:07
    get like 10 20 million views just like
  • 00:16:09
    crazy crazy numbers and it's just a dude
  • 00:16:12
    in a whiteboard and when I saw that I
  • 00:16:14
    was like I am I am missing the boat here
  • 00:16:17
    like I am doing it all wrong and so we
  • 00:16:20
    have consistently stripped back more and
  • 00:16:22
    more of this postproduction put more and
  • 00:16:24
    more of it into pre so this video for
  • 00:16:26
    example like I have notes rather than
  • 00:16:29
    than uh just kind of like winging it and
  • 00:16:30
    then having the team just like cut
  • 00:16:32
    everything that was not as good out
  • 00:16:35
    right instead it's like okay let me be
  • 00:16:36
    more purposeful about the points that I
  • 00:16:38
    want to hit make sure that they actually
  • 00:16:39
    make sense in sequence so that
  • 00:16:41
    afterwards they don't have to reorder
  • 00:16:43
    the video and then cut out this thing
  • 00:16:44
    and then say hey could you resay this
  • 00:16:45
    part it was unclear it's like I have
  • 00:16:47
    examples I have clear language that I've
  • 00:16:50
    already thought about ahead of time so
  • 00:16:51
    that I can ultimately make a better
  • 00:16:53
    video for you and also an easier video
  • 00:16:55
    for my team to be able to produce so
  • 00:16:57
    that we can make more faster adding
  • 00:17:00
    razzled Dazzle and whizbangs is not
  • 00:17:02
    going to make a video more educational
  • 00:17:05
    so this next one is a really high
  • 00:17:06
    leverage concept which I overheard this
  • 00:17:10
    for the first time from a marketer named
  • 00:17:11
    Perry Belcher and it was I don't think
  • 00:17:14
    you even use this term but need to
  • 00:17:15
    believes all right and so need to
  • 00:17:18
    believes are basically like you want the
  • 00:17:21
    Fest amount of need to believes for a
  • 00:17:23
    customer to make a purchasing decision
  • 00:17:25
    and so I'll give you a bad example of a
  • 00:17:27
    business that I had then I'll give you a
  • 00:17:28
    good example
  • 00:17:29
    so with Prestige Labs one of the
  • 00:17:32
    difficulties that I had was that I had
  • 00:17:33
    to convince someone of two things I had
  • 00:17:35
    to convince gym owners that they should
  • 00:17:37
    sell supplements not all gym owners want
  • 00:17:39
    to sell supplements some gym owners are
  • 00:17:40
    against supplements but I had to
  • 00:17:41
    convince them that selling supplements
  • 00:17:43
    was not a bad thing then I had a second
  • 00:17:46
    thing that I had to convince them of
  • 00:17:47
    which is that Prestige Labs was a suppl
  • 00:17:49
    company that they should use and so I
  • 00:17:51
    had two need to beliefs and so it made
  • 00:17:52
    it a very difficult sale uh to get
  • 00:17:55
    someone because it was just too much
  • 00:17:56
    basically education in Too Short a
  • 00:17:58
    period of time
  • 00:17:59
    now over the Long Haul could you do
  • 00:18:01
    something like that yes knowing what I
  • 00:18:02
    know now I'd probably have a
  • 00:18:04
    multi-layered campaign one that
  • 00:18:05
    basically gets the first big decision
  • 00:18:07
    and then a second kind of campaign later
  • 00:18:08
    for warmer audience kind of like middle
  • 00:18:10
    of funnel that would then convert people
  • 00:18:12
    into specifically Prestige Labs uh
  • 00:18:15
    Affiliates or sellers retailers but
  • 00:18:17
    that's a lot of work and you're
  • 00:18:18
    definitely not going to make sales
  • 00:18:19
    quickly an alternative to that is that
  • 00:18:22
    if you look at most of the uh like real
  • 00:18:25
    estate investment space right so anybody
  • 00:18:28
    who who has funds who who invest in real
  • 00:18:31
    estate who flip real estate who help
  • 00:18:32
    people flip real estate find their first
  • 00:18:34
    properties whatever there's this need to
  • 00:18:36
    believe that doesn't really exist that
  • 00:18:38
    real estate helps people make money most
  • 00:18:40
    people generally agree that real estate
  • 00:18:43
    is an asset class many people have made
  • 00:18:44
    money in real estate and so there's just
  • 00:18:46
    not a lot that has to be believed for
  • 00:18:48
    someone to say okay well you are good at
  • 00:18:51
    real estate I will buy your thing to
  • 00:18:52
    help me could get at real estate and by
  • 00:18:54
    buying it it means either I I I give
  • 00:18:56
    money to your fund and then you do it on
  • 00:18:57
    my behalf or you you you help me Source
  • 00:19:00
    deals or whatever it is right and when
  • 00:19:02
    we think about like the ultimate
  • 00:19:03
    business opportunity of all time which I
  • 00:19:05
    think is
  • 00:19:06
    Amazon Amazon itself fundamentally had
  • 00:19:09
    the proposition to anybody who wanted to
  • 00:19:11
    sell anything all you have to do is
  • 00:19:14
    upload your product onto our site and
  • 00:19:16
    you can make money there's almost no
  • 00:19:20
    like you don't need to know how to
  • 00:19:21
    Market you don't need to know how to
  • 00:19:22
    sell you don't need to handle customer
  • 00:19:24
    service or customer support they took
  • 00:19:26
    away every conceivable reason for
  • 00:19:28
    someone that they would have to believe
  • 00:19:30
    in order to be successful they were like
  • 00:19:32
    you just need to follow this tutorial
  • 00:19:34
    and then just upload your product like
  • 00:19:37
    that's it and so as a result Amazon has
  • 00:19:39
    made a tremendous amount of money and so
  • 00:19:42
    the only real need to believe is that
  • 00:19:43
    someone else might buy my product on
  • 00:19:45
    Amazon and so people believe that and
  • 00:19:48
    then they buy so it's like they barely
  • 00:19:49
    even have a need to believe it's like a
  • 00:19:50
    half belie right and so when I think
  • 00:19:54
    about products and offers I think what
  • 00:19:57
    must a customer believe in in order to
  • 00:19:59
    make this purchase and do I have
  • 00:20:00
    multiple humps or Hills that I have to
  • 00:20:02
    get over and ideally I want to
  • 00:20:05
    reposition or repackage the product and
  • 00:20:07
    offer in such a way that there's either
  • 00:20:08
    no beliefs they have to believe or only
  • 00:20:11
    one and so if you're struggling to get
  • 00:20:13
    more customers and you want to get crazy
  • 00:20:14
    amounts of customers quickly you want to
  • 00:20:16
    limit the amount of things that they
  • 00:20:18
    need to learn or need to believe in
  • 00:20:19
    order to buy and the reason that giving
  • 00:20:22
    away tons of free stuff like I mentioned
  • 00:20:24
    at the very beginning is powerful is
  • 00:20:26
    that it will basically move more people
  • 00:20:28
    from H someone who needs more
  • 00:20:30
    information to someone who needs less
  • 00:20:31
    information and so fundamentally this is
  • 00:20:33
    what branding is on a large scale is
  • 00:20:34
    that you're educating a large percentage
  • 00:20:36
    of the audience and conquering some of
  • 00:20:38
    the need to believes before they make
  • 00:20:39
    the purchase if you try to go Cradle to
  • 00:20:41
    grave in one move you will usually sell
  • 00:20:43
    a smaller percentage of the marketplace
  • 00:20:44
    unless you have figured out how to make
  • 00:20:46
    that 6inch putt a 6-inch putt for
  • 00:20:49
    everyone like Amazon has same thing with
  • 00:20:51
    Uber it's like would you have to believe
  • 00:20:53
    in order to make money on Uber you just
  • 00:20:55
    have to be able to download an app you
  • 00:20:57
    know upload your drivers license not
  • 00:20:59
    have DUIs or whatever the requirements
  • 00:21:00
    are and you have to have a car and so as
  • 00:21:02
    long as you believe that when your phone
  • 00:21:03
    dings you will get paid it's not it's
  • 00:21:06
    not a huge hill that you have to get
  • 00:21:08
    over in order to make money this next
  • 00:21:10
    one is nasty so I am a big fan of split
  • 00:21:15
    testing right and you've probably seen
  • 00:21:16
    it with my thumbnails on you know these
  • 00:21:18
    YouTube videos um because fundamentally
  • 00:21:21
    why would you not want to get more for
  • 00:21:22
    what you put in you take all this time
  • 00:21:23
    to to to put together some notes think
  • 00:21:25
    about examples you know make sure that
  • 00:21:27
    it's easy to understand you know put
  • 00:21:29
    together a thumbnail it's like why would
  • 00:21:31
    we not just like test the thumbnail
  • 00:21:32
    image when we could have two things and
  • 00:21:34
    one of the thumbnails could like 3x the
  • 00:21:36
    views on the video like that's a high
  • 00:21:38
    leverage activity and So within the
  • 00:21:39
    business that you have in terms of
  • 00:21:42
    getting more customers I am all about
  • 00:21:44
    thinking in terms of orders of magnitude
  • 00:21:46
    but when you can get 10 20 30% boost and
  • 00:21:50
    you can do it in three or four parts of
  • 00:21:51
    the funnel you can double or triple the
  • 00:21:53
    amount that you're getting from what
  • 00:21:54
    you're already doing and when that
  • 00:21:56
    happens your profit will increase
  • 00:21:57
    disproportionately to your Revenue so if
  • 00:21:59
    you double revenue and you keep your
  • 00:22:00
    cost the same you could very well three
  • 00:22:02
    or fourx profit because that additional
  • 00:22:05
    Revenue might not have nearly the cost
  • 00:22:07
    of the first set of Revenue that you had
  • 00:22:09
    to incur with your fixed costs I want to
  • 00:22:11
    rank for you the most important split
  • 00:22:13
    tests that I do with a business the
  • 00:22:16
    first is going to be offers all right
  • 00:22:19
    that's the big obvious thing like what's
  • 00:22:21
    the thing that you're giving away or
  • 00:22:22
    that you're giving them the second is
  • 00:22:24
    going to be the packaging which is going
  • 00:22:25
    to be the headlines and sub headlines
  • 00:22:28
    the Third third is going to be the
  • 00:22:29
    images Associated all right with that
  • 00:22:32
    headline and that packaging now the
  • 00:22:35
    fourth one and this one's really the
  • 00:22:37
    biggest split test winners I've had have
  • 00:22:39
    come from one and four now the reason
  • 00:22:41
    four is fourth is because it's actually
  • 00:22:43
    really hard to do but the biggest
  • 00:22:45
    personal gains that I've had have come
  • 00:22:47
    from this which
  • 00:22:50
    is
  • 00:22:52
    third-party Integrations you're like
  • 00:22:55
    what does that even mean well a lot of
  • 00:22:57
    businesses use other technology you have
  • 00:22:59
    a software stack you have you know uh
  • 00:23:02
    you have a CRM you have auler you have a
  • 00:23:06
    form a form thing uh on your on your
  • 00:23:08
    site like all of these different pieces
  • 00:23:10
    typically exist but what those
  • 00:23:13
    third-party apps and tools don't
  • 00:23:14
    typically report on is what the
  • 00:23:16
    conversion rate is of their ux or their
  • 00:23:19
    user experience and so I have found some
  • 00:23:23
    unbelievable unlocks some of the biggest
  • 00:23:26
    absolute split test winners have come
  • 00:23:28
    from just saying like oh we're not going
  • 00:23:29
    to use this software to capture this
  • 00:23:31
    stuff we're going to use this software
  • 00:23:32
    and even though the Aesthetics were
  • 00:23:34
    basically the same outside of the third
  • 00:23:37
    party integration I have had this happen
  • 00:23:40
    four times in my career where this test
  • 00:23:42
    was like a company explosion in terms of
  • 00:23:45
    increase in sales and profit like really
  • 00:23:48
    big the reason most people don't do this
  • 00:23:50
    though is that it's hard so if you have
  • 00:23:53
    to split this different tools it's like
  • 00:23:55
    okay well we got some customers here in
  • 00:23:56
    this system we some customers here it's
  • 00:23:58
    kind kind of messy but it's one of the
  • 00:24:00
    most valuable things you can do and
  • 00:24:01
    what's interesting to me is that almost
  • 00:24:03
    no third party provider ever reports on
  • 00:24:06
    conversion rate data because honestly
  • 00:24:07
    how could they because everybody's
  • 00:24:08
    different but by having that and testing
  • 00:24:11
    it for yourself you'll see some of the
  • 00:24:12
    biggest gains that you've ever had one
  • 00:24:14
    of the cool things with all of these is
  • 00:24:17
    that when you implement these things you
  • 00:24:19
    get permanent lifts for the most part so
  • 00:24:22
    meaning like if you change the offer and
  • 00:24:24
    then everything crushes it's like great
  • 00:24:25
    that's the offer if you change the
  • 00:24:26
    headline you find out that's the
  • 00:24:27
    headline and it's like cool like this
  • 00:24:29
    just keeps converting for us so it's
  • 00:24:30
    like it's onetime effort for ongoing
  • 00:24:33
    gains and like those are my favorite
  • 00:24:35
    types of things to do in the world like
  • 00:24:36
    you know build once sell a thousand
  • 00:24:38
    times like those that I mean
  • 00:24:39
    fundamentally like a book same idea you
  • 00:24:41
    write a book once it's a lot of effort
  • 00:24:43
    once but then after that you can just
  • 00:24:44
    keep selling the book over and over and
  • 00:24:45
    over over again and same thing when you
  • 00:24:47
    give away free free products it's like
  • 00:24:48
    you build it once and then that can get
  • 00:24:50
    you unlimited amounts of leads last week
  • 00:24:52
    for Black Friday I um spent 200 plus
  • 00:24:56
    hours not on that day but leading up to
  • 00:24:57
    it come up with a scaling road map uh
  • 00:25:00
    basically taking a company from 0 to 100
  • 00:25:01
    million it's 14 hours that breaks 10
  • 00:25:05
    stages of growth for any company and it
  • 00:25:07
    divides it across eight different
  • 00:25:10
    functions of the business so Marketing
  • 00:25:12
    sales customer success product it HR
  • 00:25:15
    recruiting finance and so all of the
  • 00:25:18
    functions of the business what the
  • 00:25:19
    problem that you're dealing with right
  • 00:25:20
    now and what you need to do to graduate
  • 00:25:22
    that whole thing took me a really long
  • 00:25:24
    time to put together but now that it's
  • 00:25:27
    there and everyone can just like fill
  • 00:25:28
    bill out questions and get a
  • 00:25:29
    personalized solution for them and it's
  • 00:25:31
    free and it's better than other people
  • 00:25:33
    charge for then that can just
  • 00:25:35
    consistently get more businesses into my
  • 00:25:37
    world so the next big way of getting
  • 00:25:40
    customers so fast it should feel legal
  • 00:25:42
    is spend more waight that's not what it
  • 00:25:46
    is it's be able to spend more so let me
  • 00:25:50
    explain the difference so spending more
  • 00:25:52
    is just cool you increase your budget
  • 00:25:54
    sure and that can work but most
  • 00:25:57
    businesses like if you ask businesses
  • 00:25:59
    why they fail so they they do surveys in
  • 00:26:01
    the Census Bureau and I think the number
  • 00:26:03
    one reason that small businesses say
  • 00:26:05
    that they can't succeed is because they
  • 00:26:07
    have a lack of customers they have a
  • 00:26:09
    lack of leads they have a lack of demand
  • 00:26:11
    and the reality most of the time is not
  • 00:26:14
    that they have a lack of leads but that
  • 00:26:15
    they don't have a good enough business
  • 00:26:16
    to be able to afford them and so this is
  • 00:26:19
    where you have to solve the business
  • 00:26:21
    from back to front and so there was a
  • 00:26:23
    company um not that long ago that that
  • 00:26:25
    uh that came out here to the
  • 00:26:27
    headquarters and they're like we need
  • 00:26:29
    help scaling and I said so what do you
  • 00:26:30
    think your constraint is and their
  • 00:26:31
    constraint was leads cost too much by
  • 00:26:34
    the way leads costing too much is rarely
  • 00:26:38
    ever an issue the issue is usually that
  • 00:26:41
    you don't make enough money per customer
  • 00:26:43
    and here's a fun factoid for you that I
  • 00:26:45
    can share I look at a lot of different
  • 00:26:47
    companies every single day and that's
  • 00:26:50
    because we sift through deals and we
  • 00:26:52
    look for patterns between markets and so
  • 00:26:54
    right now for example I'm really
  • 00:26:55
    interested in the metpa space and I
  • 00:26:57
    would really like to get into into a
  • 00:26:58
    chain there so if you are metpa owner
  • 00:27:00
    and you have you know call it fiveish
  • 00:27:02
    million in EAA hit us up anyways one of
  • 00:27:05
    the things that's not unique between
  • 00:27:06
    different met spot chains is their cost
  • 00:27:08
    to acquire customers so the range of the
  • 00:27:11
    cost of getting people in the door is
  • 00:27:13
    usually actually not that different so
  • 00:27:14
    the benchmarks are usually maybe 1X 2x
  • 00:27:17
    of one another not huge but where the
  • 00:27:20
    major differences that exist between
  • 00:27:22
    change in terms of their success is
  • 00:27:24
    their LTV which is how much customers
  • 00:27:26
    are worth to that business over the long
  • 00:27:28
    term and this is usually where the rich
  • 00:27:30
    get richer this is why the biggest
  • 00:27:32
    companies in the world are the biggest
  • 00:27:34
    companies in the world Starbucks has a
  • 00:27:36
    $14,000 LTV now for Starbucks to acquire
  • 00:27:40
    a coffee customer is probably not going
  • 00:27:42
    to cost that much more if anything
  • 00:27:43
    they're probably wildly inefficient
  • 00:27:44
    because there's this m massive corporate
  • 00:27:46
    Behemoth right compared to the local
  • 00:27:48
    coffee shot down the street but if
  • 00:27:50
    they're going to head-to-head from an
  • 00:27:51
    actual per dollar per customer basis
  • 00:27:53
    usually the small local guy should be
  • 00:27:55
    able to out compete the big National Guy
  • 00:27:57
    where the big National guy gets them is
  • 00:27:58
    that they've got 40 or 50 years of
  • 00:28:00
    optimizing lifetime value per customer
  • 00:28:02
    so they know every single thing that
  • 00:28:04
    gets customers to come back what gets
  • 00:28:06
    them addicted what types of products on
  • 00:28:08
    what seasons what you know what pumps of
  • 00:28:10
    flavors to give what options to provide
  • 00:28:12
    which ones to cut they know all of these
  • 00:28:14
    things and that is how they out compete
  • 00:28:17
    and so right now if your cost to acquire
  • 00:28:21
    customer is about the same as your
  • 00:28:23
    industry which by the way you can
  • 00:28:24
    totally just Google this it's not that
  • 00:28:25
    hard you just say like uh average cost
  • 00:28:27
    cost customer insert industry right and
  • 00:28:29
    you can find it very quickly in a couple
  • 00:28:30
    Google searches that will then tell you
  • 00:28:32
    oh maybe I'm not that far off oh my
  • 00:28:35
    business is broken and so this often
  • 00:28:37
    happens a lot too where a small business
  • 00:28:39
    owner will be like those guys overcharge
  • 00:28:41
    I'm going to come into the market and
  • 00:28:42
    charge less it's like well there's a
  • 00:28:44
    reason that they charge more and why
  • 00:28:45
    they're bigger than you because they
  • 00:28:47
    make more money so they can charge more
  • 00:28:48
    because they've already figured this out
  • 00:28:50
    and so in my opinion the ability to
  • 00:28:53
    spend more is LTV and LTV is the arms
  • 00:28:57
    race of advertising
  • 00:28:58
    and if you can spend more than anyone
  • 00:29:01
    else can you can Outlast them because
  • 00:29:04
    here's a fact that will make a lot of
  • 00:29:05
    you uncomfortable advertising only
  • 00:29:08
    becomes more expensive over time the
  • 00:29:10
    cost to get a customer literally only
  • 00:29:12
    goes up the cost of Impressions cost of
  • 00:29:14
    eyeballs only goes up over time and so
  • 00:29:17
    you need to have a force in your
  • 00:29:19
    business that also concurrently goes up
  • 00:29:21
    over time which is your LTV customers
  • 00:29:24
    should continue to pay for the services
  • 00:29:26
    from you continue to buy your products
  • 00:29:28
    and you should be continually expanding
  • 00:29:29
    LTV so that as you go to colder and
  • 00:29:31
    colder markets on more and more
  • 00:29:33
    expensive media channels that you can
  • 00:29:35
    continue to outspend and earn a profit
  • 00:29:38
    and you might be wondering why doesn't
  • 00:29:39
    anyone do this well it's usually an
  • 00:29:41
    entirely different skill set and there's
  • 00:29:43
    usually fear associated with the actions
  • 00:29:45
    that most strongly increase LTV so
  • 00:29:49
    changing or raising prices something
  • 00:29:51
    that most business owners are terrified
  • 00:29:52
    of it's one of the strongest levers on
  • 00:29:54
    lifetime value and yet no one does it
  • 00:29:56
    and so they instead are like how can I
  • 00:29:57
    get you cheaper leads because they had
  • 00:29:59
    this one campaign this one time that
  • 00:30:00
    kind of worked and then they're like I
  • 00:30:02
    wish it was like that time it's kind of
  • 00:30:03
    like their heroin addicts where like the
  • 00:30:04
    first time they're you know they're
  • 00:30:05
    chasing the first high and everyone
  • 00:30:07
    every marketing campaign after that uh
  • 00:30:09
    they're trying to get lead cost to that
  • 00:30:10
    low it's never going to happen again
  • 00:30:12
    just get over it the first time you send
  • 00:30:13
    any kind of AD in a new market or you've
  • 00:30:15
    got a new offer it's always going to do
  • 00:30:16
    the best that's not going to be your
  • 00:30:18
    your stabilization point it's going to
  • 00:30:20
    get worse and so you have to build the
  • 00:30:22
    business to accommodate that rather than
  • 00:30:24
    stomp your feet and wish that leads were
  • 00:30:26
    cheaper oh yeah man I love this one all
  • 00:30:29
    right so affiliate models that work all
  • 00:30:33
    right so we're talking about getting
  • 00:30:34
    customers Stupid Fast all right one of
  • 00:30:37
    the highest leverage things you can do
  • 00:30:39
    is go to somebody who's already spent
  • 00:30:41
    years developing your audience and then
  • 00:30:43
    just ask to be promoted in front of it
  • 00:30:45
    now there's a number of ways of doing
  • 00:30:47
    this of course you can go for the Mega
  • 00:30:49
    influencers and things like that the way
  • 00:30:51
    that I have built every affiliate
  • 00:30:52
    business that I have run has been not
  • 00:30:54
    going after the Super Affiliates but
  • 00:30:56
    instead trying to AG at many smaller
  • 00:31:00
    businesses or nodes of new Revenue so
  • 00:31:03
    there is a business right now that
  • 00:31:05
    already has all the customers that you
  • 00:31:06
    want and they don't have your product
  • 00:31:08
    and you would both benefit from
  • 00:31:09
    collaborating rather than competing and
  • 00:31:12
    so here's the issue if I were to get on
  • 00:31:15
    stage in front of a thousand business
  • 00:31:16
    owners and say raise your hand if you
  • 00:31:20
    have a deal where if someone refers you
  • 00:31:22
    a customer you give them 20% half the
  • 00:31:24
    remov raise their hand they'd be like oh
  • 00:31:26
    yeah I do that and be like okay
  • 00:31:27
    everybody is raising your hands why
  • 00:31:29
    don't you go refer a customer to one
  • 00:31:31
    another and then the hands go down
  • 00:31:34
    because no one cares no one's going to
  • 00:31:36
    say okay I spent all this effort all
  • 00:31:38
    this time to build trust advertise sell
  • 00:31:41
    create a relationship and I'm just going
  • 00:31:42
    to hand them to you for 20% of your
  • 00:31:44
    ticket what do I care right I'd rather
  • 00:31:47
    just not even introduce the variable
  • 00:31:48
    just keep living my life and so if you
  • 00:31:50
    really want Affiliates to work you have
  • 00:31:52
    to make it so good that it hurts all
  • 00:31:55
    right and when I say that I mean you got
  • 00:31:57
    to give the affiliate so much that
  • 00:31:59
    you're like man they're going to make a
  • 00:32:01
    killing on this and this is how I like
  • 00:32:02
    to do it so let's say that you've got a
  • 00:32:05
    product all right that has uh let's see
  • 00:32:08
    if this drawing will actually work out I
  • 00:32:10
    don't know this is why I draw on an iPad
  • 00:32:12
    normally okay so let's say that we've
  • 00:32:15
    got your
  • 00:32:17
    product and you've got kind of four
  • 00:32:20
    components to it right I guess this is
  • 00:32:22
    more than four is it four no it's eight
  • 00:32:24
    whatever you get the idea all right and
  • 00:32:26
    you sell this thing for whatever
  • 00:32:29
    $1,000 okay so what we want to do is
  • 00:32:32
    we're going to say we want to take this
  • 00:32:34
    corner and we're going to peel this
  • 00:32:36
    thing off all right so this is just
  • 00:32:37
    going to be a little side project that
  • 00:32:39
    we have here just pretend that's a cube
  • 00:32:42
    this is still a and instead of saying
  • 00:32:45
    hey man I'll give you 20% give them 20%
  • 00:32:48
    of your product and give them
  • 00:32:51
    100% here what I'm
  • 00:32:54
    saying if I were a masseuse and what are
  • 00:32:58
    all the things that I do okay I might do
  • 00:32:59
    sports massage I might I might have the
  • 00:33:02
    the the lotions and the oils I might do
  • 00:33:04
    the the hot stone thing right or I might
  • 00:33:06
    be selling you know 10 10 Massage
  • 00:33:09
    packages or 20 Massage packages whatever
  • 00:33:12
    I would go to a business owner and
  • 00:33:14
    instead of saying hey I'll give you 20%
  • 00:33:17
    uh if you send me somebody who gets a
  • 00:33:19
    massage I would say hey man um why don't
  • 00:33:22
    you sell all your customers three
  • 00:33:25
    massages and you can sell it for
  • 00:33:27
    whatever you want
  • 00:33:28
    from me you can keep all the
  • 00:33:31
    money oh wait so this is like a well how
  • 00:33:34
    much can I charge whatever you want but
  • 00:33:36
    it's got to be at least this so that
  • 00:33:38
    minimum is whatever your price is
  • 00:33:40
    because you don't want to get cheap
  • 00:33:41
    customers in so let's say that your
  • 00:33:43
    price is uh is $100 so you say you have
  • 00:33:46
    to be able to sell uh those three
  • 00:33:48
    massages for at least 300 you can sell
  • 00:33:50
    for 500 you can sell for 300 you'll keep
  • 00:33:52
    the whole 300 I just need to make sure
  • 00:33:53
    the Price Is Right so it's the right
  • 00:33:54
    people so let's say these guys are like
  • 00:33:56
    oh my God these guys are nuts I'm gonna
  • 00:33:58
    sell these three Massage packages for
  • 00:34:00
    $500 and I'm gonna keep all of it you
  • 00:34:02
    know what I would think to
  • 00:34:04
    myself what's my cost so the cost of a
  • 00:34:07
    massage let's say that you uh you you
  • 00:34:09
    you pay your your your massage maybe
  • 00:34:11
    it's you right let's say you pay $30 per
  • 00:34:14
    massage and hard cost in terms of Labor
  • 00:34:16
    okay so would I pay
  • 00:34:19
    $90 to get somebody to do three sessions
  • 00:34:23
    with me that paid
  • 00:34:26
    $500 for those three sessions well that
  • 00:34:28
    sounds like an incredibly qualified lead
  • 00:34:30
    to me and not only is it $90 it's $90 in
  • 00:34:34
    no other work I'm not making ads I'm not
  • 00:34:38
    running them and buying media I'm not
  • 00:34:39
    building landing pages I'm not working
  • 00:34:41
    leads calling them sending them I don't
  • 00:34:43
    have any of that they already paid
  • 00:34:45
    they're going to show and so all I have
  • 00:34:47
    to do is just have an easy handoff where
  • 00:34:49
    they can just schedule them onto my
  • 00:34:50
    calendar and then they've already paid
  • 00:34:52
    so the likel they show is fine and the
  • 00:34:54
    rest of it's automated when that happens
  • 00:34:56
    and then you make this offer hey man and
  • 00:34:59
    you do that to a 100 businesses there's
  • 00:35:01
    a lot of businesses who are like oh I'm
  • 00:35:03
    down to sell something for $500 and do
  • 00:35:05
    no work and there's something mental
  • 00:35:08
    about you don't split it with me just
  • 00:35:11
    take all the money it's a very different
  • 00:35:13
    vibe and so what ends up happening is
  • 00:35:15
    they either use it as an upsell
  • 00:35:18
    or they include it in their $1,000 thing
  • 00:35:22
    and they put your thing in and they
  • 00:35:24
    charge the th000 and give them the three
  • 00:35:26
    massages you don't care either way you
  • 00:35:30
    have a $90 cost of getting somebody who
  • 00:35:32
    spent a lot of money and is perfectly
  • 00:35:35
    qualified for whatever your next thing
  • 00:35:36
    is and so then you just do the math and
  • 00:35:38
    say okay well I know that I convert one
  • 00:35:41
    out of three of these people one of
  • 00:35:43
    three into my $2,000 thing which means
  • 00:35:47
    that my cost to get a customer here
  • 00:35:49
    would be 3 * 90 which is
  • 00:35:52
    $270 so would I pay
  • 00:35:54
    $270 to get $2,000
  • 00:35:57
    hell yeah I would and without any of the
  • 00:36:00
    work of course and this is how you build
  • 00:36:04
    an affiliate model that gets you
  • 00:36:05
    customers Stupid Fast and gets you
  • 00:36:07
    Affiliates who are trying to fill up
  • 00:36:09
    your calendars because it actually makes
  • 00:36:11
    sense for them now so if you're going to
  • 00:36:13
    have Affiliates do it like you mean it
  • 00:36:15
    it has to be incentivizing enough to
  • 00:36:17
    change their behavior or it's useless
  • 00:36:20
    it's kind of like these these uh these
  • 00:36:22
    you know coupon codes that I see people
  • 00:36:23
    give out to like influencers it's like
  • 00:36:25
    10% off it's like
  • 00:36:28
    who cares like it like either I'm going
  • 00:36:30
    to buy the jacket or I'm not 10% is
  • 00:36:31
    probably not going to move the needle
  • 00:36:32
    for me at all now for me discounts have
  • 00:36:35
    to be 50% or higher for in my opinion
  • 00:36:37
    for a real change in Behavior we get a
  • 00:36:40
    massive increase in demand and so I
  • 00:36:42
    don't want to take that off my main
  • 00:36:43
    thing I want to peel my main thing and
  • 00:36:46
    then give 100% of that and so this next
  • 00:36:49
    one is truth and you're like what is
  • 00:36:51
    that even mean how is this going to get
  • 00:36:52
    me customers really fast well well lies
  • 00:36:55
    will certainly get you customers pretty
  • 00:36:56
    quickly but it also ruin your reputation
  • 00:36:59
    so you want truth to be your greatest
  • 00:37:02
    Ally not your greatest liability because
  • 00:37:05
    I will tell you a secret about
  • 00:37:06
    advertising nothing sells like the truth
  • 00:37:10
    and so one people talk about being
  • 00:37:12
    authentic well if you want your
  • 00:37:14
    advertising to be authentic just say
  • 00:37:16
    what's true and what's interesting is
  • 00:37:18
    that a lot of people won't tell the
  • 00:37:20
    truth about the things that actually
  • 00:37:21
    could help them so like if you're a
  • 00:37:23
    small business and you're getting
  • 00:37:24
    started say so if you
  • 00:37:28
    um if you don't have a huge amount of
  • 00:37:30
    capacity because you're small say so not
  • 00:37:33
    having a lot of capacity increases
  • 00:37:35
    scarcity it means that there's fewer
  • 00:37:36
    slots available not having a lot of
  • 00:37:38
    capacity indicates that there's probably
  • 00:37:39
    a high level of personalization and
  • 00:37:41
    Personal Touch being a small business
  • 00:37:43
    for many people is a pro there aren't as
  • 00:37:45
    many people are like buy big corporate
  • 00:37:47
    buy big corporate no people are like Buy
  • 00:37:49
    Local Buy small business right they
  • 00:37:50
    support small business and so like a lot
  • 00:37:52
    of what people think are negatives are
  • 00:37:55
    actually things that make their offer or
  • 00:37:58
    their business more compelling
  • 00:38:00
    especially to the Right audience and so
  • 00:38:03
    you want to arm yourself with truth and
  • 00:38:06
    think about how many different things
  • 00:38:07
    are true and if you want to get really
  • 00:38:09
    nasty with it you want to tell the truth
  • 00:38:12
    that also isn't as exciting upfront so
  • 00:38:16
    that when you sell your second piece of
  • 00:38:18
    Truth they will then believe you that
  • 00:38:20
    much more so I'll give you an example so
  • 00:38:23
    I remember we had a a location that had
  • 00:38:26
    bad parking and so we would say stuff
  • 00:38:29
    like listen we have you know we don't
  • 00:38:32
    have the biggest parking lot or we're
  • 00:38:33
    not the biggest gym in the neighborhood
  • 00:38:35
    you know we don't have more equipment
  • 00:38:36
    than the guys down the street but you
  • 00:38:38
    know what when you walk in this store
  • 00:38:39
    you're going to forget about all of that
  • 00:38:41
    because you're going to have so much fun
  • 00:38:43
    you're not even going to care because
  • 00:38:46
    this is a damaging admission it's X bad
  • 00:38:49
    thing here I'll show you the equation
  • 00:38:50
    for
  • 00:38:52
    this I'll show you the formula for this
  • 00:38:54
    so it's bad
  • 00:38:58
    bab
  • 00:39:00
    bad
  • 00:39:02
    but
  • 00:39:04
    good so but is an amplifier for this
  • 00:39:08
    word so if I said I have an incredibly
  • 00:39:12
    short temper I am
  • 00:39:15
    impatient and I don't shower very much
  • 00:39:19
    but I will be able to now you want this
  • 00:39:22
    to be relevant to the damaging
  • 00:39:23
    admissions
  • 00:39:25
    so but I make you laugh but I will make
  • 00:39:29
    you laugh your ass off all night for the
  • 00:39:31
    price of a couple
  • 00:39:33
    beers if you say that those negatives
  • 00:39:38
    then are diminished and the good thing
  • 00:39:41
    is Amplified and so if you know that
  • 00:39:44
    you're going to tell the truth and that
  • 00:39:45
    people are going to find out about this
  • 00:39:47
    anyways you might as well be the one who
  • 00:39:49
    controls the narrative and you can frame
  • 00:39:51
    it in a way that that bad truth helps
  • 00:39:55
    amplify your good truth obviously come
  • 00:39:58
    from the the fitness space and so the
  • 00:39:59
    examples that I think of um are there
  • 00:40:02
    which is sometimes you know like a one
  • 00:40:04
    of the gym owners was not like super in
  • 00:40:06
    shape they'd be like hey I'm not the
  • 00:40:07
    most in shaped guy but we have more fun
  • 00:40:11
    at our gym and people get great results
  • 00:40:13
    even though I like donuts a lot still
  • 00:40:15
    and so what happens is people are like
  • 00:40:17
    man this guy's so authentic and if you
  • 00:40:19
    don't say it they're going to think it
  • 00:40:22
    so you might as well account for it up
  • 00:40:24
    front answer the why should I listen to
  • 00:40:26
    you or what about about this big flaring
  • 00:40:29
    problem that I can obviously see you
  • 00:40:31
    want to control the narrative and make
  • 00:40:32
    that thing into a weapon for you make it
  • 00:40:34
    into an asset that serves your purpose
  • 00:40:37
    rather than something that cast doubt in
  • 00:40:38
    the prospect because if you claim it
  • 00:40:41
    they they like I don't know why this
  • 00:40:44
    works this way but it's kind of like
  • 00:40:45
    Eminem when he when he said all the
  • 00:40:47
    negative things in 8 Mile that anyone
  • 00:40:48
    else could say about him so no one else
  • 00:40:50
    could say anything bad it's like if you
  • 00:40:51
    claim them then people can't hold it
  • 00:40:52
    against you and the hardest thing in all
  • 00:40:55
    of marketing is getting someone to
  • 00:40:58
    believe you and so everything that you
  • 00:41:00
    can do to increase trust is one of the
  • 00:41:02
    best investments you can make in an
  • 00:41:04
    advertising campaign in general and
  • 00:41:05
    ultimately in building a brand the truth
  • 00:41:07
    isn't just a good strategy it's the only
  • 00:41:10
    long-term
  • 00:41:11
    strategy and it just takes people a
  • 00:41:13
    different amount of time to realize it
  • 00:41:16
    and once you've activated Affiliates
  • 00:41:17
    once you've given away crazy amounts of
  • 00:41:19
    stuff for free once you've doubled down
  • 00:41:21
    on the right people who are high
  • 00:41:22
    leverage in the position once you've
  • 00:41:24
    made the truth your Ally and you put
  • 00:41:27
    your negatives out in the marketing so
  • 00:41:28
    that people believe the good stuff that
  • 00:41:30
    you say and you focused on doing more
  • 00:41:32
    and doing better you're going to start
  • 00:41:34
    getting more customers than you can
  • 00:41:35
    handle and at that point you're going to
  • 00:41:37
    want to have a playbook for making so
  • 00:41:39
    much money that it should feel illegal
  • 00:41:41
    and if that's you watch the next video
