In this episode… Have you poured a lot of time and effort into the primary message of your business? If you had to sum up your message in a concise sentence or phrase, could you? On this episode of Inspired Insider, you'll hear from business leader and entrepreneur, Stefan Georgi. In his conversation with Jeremy, Stefan opens up about his career as a direct-response marketer, how he tests headlines, common mistakes most brands make, challenges he has faced in his career, and much more. You don't want to miss a minute of this powerful episode featuring Stefan's unique insights! Who has helped you on your career trajectory? Have you had the fortune of networking with well-connected leaders who have mentored you or have you had to chart your own course through trial and error? Thankfully, Stefan Georgi had some pivotal mentors and peers who invested in his growth over the years. Stefan isn't shy about giving credit where credit is due - he's also dedicated to giving back and investing in the next generation of leaders. What can you learn from Stefan's approach to business and leadership? Did you know that video is the fastest growing medium for getting your message to the public? It's true! Just take a look at the rise of YouTube, Facebook Live, and Instagram. More and more - the primary messaging platform for many businesses is the use of video. Do you have a plan to adapt with the new media wave, or will you get stuck in the past? It all comes down to who you are trying to reach! If your target audience is retiring boomers, the best option might not be video - but if you are trying to reach stay-at-home moms then you might be on the right track! Crafting a compelling and memorable message is no small task. Do you think the likes of Nike's "Just Do It" message was developed overnight? Too often, we take these memorable messages for granted and fail to appreciate the hard work that goes into finding the right message for an audience. In his career as a direct-response marketer - Stefan has learned that the key to crafting the right message is to research your audience. Do you know their likes and dislikes? Do you know how they describe their everyday problems and passions? If you can learn how your target audience communicates - you are well on your way to crafting the right message. Let's face it; life has a way of forcing us to slow down and pay attention - this can be in the form of the perfect sunrise or unexpected news. The real question is - what will you do when things get dialled up in your life? Will you rise to the occasion or will you shrink and retreat? When Stefan heard the news that his father was ill and wouldn't have long to live - he made sure to rise to the occasion and make the most of the time he had left. Remember - all of your success and fame won't mean anything if you don't take the time to care for your loved ones!

In his conversation with Jeremy, Mark opens up about how he came up with the idea for the Bedjet, why he decided to appear on Shark Tank, what it took to validate the Bedjet, and much more. You don't want to miss a minute of this fascinating episode featuring Mark's story! Where does an innovative idea like the Bedjet come from? From the complexity and the amazing technology involved, you'd think that the idea for a device like the Bedjet came from a technology firm. The truth is - the Bedjet was born out of Mark's desire to tinker around with a device that would solve his personal dilemma of temperature control in his bed. After he landed on a prototype - Mark decided to get wider input by sending the device to his friends and family - they agreed, Bedjet was a hit! Once he had the product figured out - Mark had to go to work getting the product exposure in the marketplace. Running a small startup - you can imagine that Mark's brand awareness budget was almost $0. Thankfully, they were able to get a Bedjet into the hands of the brilliant and talented marketing agency - The Harmon Brothers. In just a few months - Mark had a fun, entertaining, and engaging video he could use to promote the Bedjet. You can view the video that helped put the Bedjet on the map the Bedjet website! As a small startup - Mark took every opportunity he could to raise awareness of the Bedjet and connect with more people who would enjoy the product. The desire to improve the Bedjet's visibility led Mark to several rounds of funding on Kickstarter. With the successful Kickstarter campaigns, the Bedjet got on the radar for the folks at Shark Tank. The funny thing is - Mark had never even seen an episode of Shark Tank before the show contacted him! Jumping at the chance to appear on Shark Tank - Mark packed his bags and attended the tapping - all to no avail. The Sharks were convinced that the Bedjet would bomb - thankfully - they were wrong. Even though the Sharks didn't believe in the Bedjet - Mark knew better. He was convinced that the Bedjet was the solution that many people all over the world needed to make sleep a more enjoyable experience. Today, the Bedjet is selling like never before. The Bedjet is listed on Amazon, but Mark has been pouring more resources in his direct to consumer efforts, and he's seen it pay off! Mark's story goes to show you that you don't need the stars to align to bring a successful product to the marketplace - you just have to make something people want!

Imagine all of the unique insights they'd have to share - look no farther! On this episode of Inspired Insider, you'll hear from three top direct response marketers - Brian Kurtz, John Carlton and Richard Armstrong. In their conversation with Jeremy, the guys explain how they got started in direct response marketing, lessons they learned along the way, why focusing on providing value is critical, and much more. You don't want to miss a minute of this fascinating conversation! When you look back at your journey - what sticks out? Do you have lessons or regrets that stand out more than others? If you could pass on some advice - what would you share? Looking back at their journey as direct response marketers - Brian, Richard, and John were kind enough to share some of their hard-fought insights. The common theme from their reflections centres on missed opportunities. From missing out on one of the last Jimi Hendrix concerts to failing to spend time with key mentors late in their life - the guys stress the value of taking the road less travelled. Did you know that one of the best ways to learn an industry or trade is to jump in and start providing value? It's true! Too often - early on in their career - men and women are searching for a place to start without taking the time to find the best people to learn from. Imagine what it would have done for your career to spend a year or two simply learning from the top leaders in your industry. Brian, Richard, and John all attest to the value of sitting at the feet of those who have mastered their craft. When was the last time you really pushed the envelope? Do you like to take risks and move the needle or are more of the play it safe type? The truth is - in the business world - if you play it safe, you'll never get ahead. The old saying rings true - if the boss is happy, the product isn't good. As direct response marketers, the guys had to learn that making the client happy wasn't the point - they had to create content that would appeal to the customer. You can imagine that navigating the tension between pleasing the client and creating effective copy wasn't easy. Learning your craft and advancing in your specific industry is no small task. Many men and women can't endure the challenges and roadblocks that arise in an intense industry like direct response marketing. Seeking to share their wisdom and expand their influence, Brian, Richard, and John have each authored books to help budding leaders. They want to do for others what guys like Jay Abraham and Gary Halbert did for them.

In this episode… Have you ever thought about writing and marketing a book to increase exposure for your business? Is the thought of writing a book too intimidating for you? What would it take for you to write a book? On this episode of Inspired Insider, you'll hear from entrepreneur and author, Laura Gale. In her conversation with Jeremy, Laura opens up about her experience in the publishing industry, what it was like working with J.K. Rowling, why she loves helping fellow entrepreneurs, challenges she has faced, and much more. You don't want to miss a minute of this fascinating episode featuring Laura's story! Can you imagine working with the likes of J.K. Rowling, Stephenie Meyer, and other famous authors? What an amazing experience! While it was an opportunity of a lifetime - Laura Gale says that working with those authors had their fair share of challenges. The sheer scale of coordinating and marketing a book with such a famous author is no small feat. While working with those authors and many others - Laura learned key skills that would help her later on in her career when she decided to leave the traditional publishing industry behind. Why do entrepreneurs do crazy things like leave the comfort and safety of their careers and head out into open and uncharted waters? The truth is - they want to bring something to the marketplace that they know only they can bring. Leveraging her experience in the publishing industry - Laura set out on her own. The journey wasn't all sunshine and roses - she faced her own set of challenges as she forged her path. Through all the difficulty that came her way, Laura remained convinced that more entrepreneurs and leaders needed to tell their story - that's what keeps her going. Did you know that writing a book could help you expand your platform? It's true! From politicians to business leaders - more and more leaders are taking the time to tell their story. While old school institutions like newspapers and traditional TV networks are going the way of the dinosaur - books still resonate with people. Something about telling your story - especially in a raw, honest, and compelling way - really connects with a wider audience. Just take a look at Amazon and the HUGE numbers of book sales - both traditional and audiobooks! If you haven't considered it before - give it another thought - writing a book might be the right move for you and your brand. If you want to make an impression and get a result you've never had - you've got to do something outside of the box. Too often, business leaders get so focused on doing things the same way - that they fail to innovate! Laura Gale learned that if she wanted to make an impression on people - she had to get creative. From unique mailing efforts to taking the time to meet with an individual face to face - whatever broke from the same tired script - Laura tried it. Guess what? It worked! Laura began to receive positive results from her efforts. What can you learn from Laura's story?
