I’ve been in this industry for a really, really long time … before challenges ever existed, video series were brand-spanking new, and webinars were the leading sales technique. Let’s just say I’ve seen a LOT of strategies come and go. I’ve grown successful businesses, and I’ve made a lot of mistakes along the way. One
Over the past year, we’ve seen “proven” marketing strategies (that worked well for many years) drop in effectiveness dramatically while other tactics worked really well. There’s also been a shift in buying behavior that will likely continue through the current recession. Simply put, there’s been a lot of change in the market, and this is
If you’ve been a follower of mine for any amount of time, you probably know I’d love to see entrepreneurship taught in high schools. I’m a huge advocate of providing more opportunities to kids after high school (other than college). And on this episode of the podcast, I’m speaking to someone who’s creating change now!
While there are many positives to owning a course-based business, it’s far from easy. When I first got started in this space, I thought it would be easy. I imagined a funnel you turned on once and barely had to revisit where sales came with ease and customers were anonymous. Spoiler alert: It’s nothing like
If you want to have a powerful message, you need to be a powerful person, even in the face of adversity. And today’s guest, voice actress and business owner Jennifer Hale is the perfect example. Just a few years ago, she went through a pretty big ordeal with a “hater” online about something that wasn’t
Your messaging, first and foremost, should be profitable. While it’s great to be clear and communicate exactly what you’re selling… your messaging, most importantly, should be designed to drive sales. In fact, great messaging helps you both close customers and grow your business. If people aren’t reaching out to work with you before you pitch,
This year brought lots of change for me and my business. For us, our amazing integrator, Taylor, left the business (on wonderful terms), I moved from my home state to Arizona, we shifted the business to a high-ticket evergreen model, and we’re trying things we never did before. If you had told 2021 Brandon all this
Over the past four years, we’ve focused more on paid ads than we have on growing organically. While I love organic growth (and believe you must have both organic and paid in your business for optimal results), paid ads will help you scale faster. In fact, we’ve spent over $1.1 million on ads, scaled quickly,
There are a few elements of building your online business that I don’t typically talk about. Some of these elements include how to use a story in your messaging and how to create an offer. My guest specializes in telling stories that are designed for conversions and crafting offers that sell with ease. He’s helped
Many of you have heard the story of how I went from $40,000 in debt to a million-dollar business. But I haven’t shared the “why” behind it. Yes, I’ve shared some of the how and the strategic details. However, I want to go deeper. In this episode of the podcast, I’m sharing the 9 business
I once spent years posting tutorials, hoping “just adding value” alone would make sales roll in. I watched my YouTube subscribers climb, and my email list grow slowly but my revenue barely budged. After 10 years building my multimillion-dollar course business, I realized these core lessons would let me rebuild in one year (not ten)
Ever feel like going viral is just luck? Spoiler alert: it’s not. Over the past year I came out of a personal fog into a world where AI copycats flooded every niche—and my sales flatlined. Then I stumbled on a simple truth: great content follows a science. Back in September I launched a grounded parenting
Yes, you read that title correctly. I stopped selling my flagship messaging programs. And no, they’re not gone forever—I just hit pause. After a tough divorce and burnout from answering the same questions week after week, I realized something huge: the market shifted, AI exploded, and my passion took me in a new direction. Instead
Ever posted your most insightful, five-years-in-the-making content only to hear crickets? Then, out of nowhere, a silly park video you threw together explodes overnight? It’s maddening when deep expertise feels invisible and surface-level stuff blows up. Today on the podcast, I’m exposing why knowledge alone won’t skyrocket your following and revealing the three psychological triggers
We’re living in an AI gold rush: some entrepreneurs worship it, while others call it a fad. Which camp are you in? Are you blindly clicking “generate” on ChatGPT and wondering why your content falls flat? Or dismissing AI altogether as the latest gimmick? I learned this by building my parenting brand on TikTok. I
Ever wonder how I’ve gone 15 years without a traditional job and still pulled in an estimated $10–20M? Back in college, I was building and flipping humor websites (one sold for $2K, another for $4K). Then I created, hit 100K uniques a month, and sold it too. No degrees. No bosses. Just hustle. Today on
