The Business Method: Interviewing Billionaires, Billion Dollar Founders & the World’s Most Successful People 🎧🔥

“I’ve watched a lot of entrepreneurs create chaos in their own company, just so they can feel like they have something to do.” Tim Conley In this episode, we have a master entrepreneur and executive coach Tim Conley on our show. Tim turns entrepreneurs into CEO’s of their company teaching his clients how to scale their business from 6 to 7 figures without sacrificing their freedom or sanity. In the late 1990’s Tim started marketing consulting for companies to integrate offline and online campaigns. After 2 decades of experience, Tim has worked with over 400 founders, and started, sold and invested in multiple businesses. He knows what it is like to create a 7-figure business and the pressures of running a business at that level. Here is what I like about Tim, he is a no BS guy. His advice is clear and direct and he will tell you what your businesses needs and how to accomplish it in the least amount of time. In 2015, Tim came as an advisor to The Entrepreneur House in Chiang Mai. It was incredible watching this man when helping the attendees with feedback on their business. It was watching a master at work. “When we take on the mantle of entrepreneurship, we are saying to the world, “I’m ready to lead.” Tim Conley Creating Efficient Systems: 1. Must have sizable margins -Must have significantly more revenue than it costs you to provide the service or product. “A company that has great margins can survive all kinds of inefficiency.” Tim Conley 2. Marketing and Sales -Separate the two. Are you sales oriented or marketing oriented? -Usually, a company will be more marketing oriented or more sales oriented. -A sales-oriented company will plateau and they will eventually need to go do marketing or bring in someone that is good at marketing. “Entrepreneurship is that….you take and idea and turn it into reality. How much more art is there than that?” Tim Conley “No one is going to feel sorry for the guy that makes 7-figures….but surrounding ourselves with others that understand what we are going through, it helps us be better people.” Tim Conley Contact Info: Website: http://tim411.com http://leaderswithin.io/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/TimConley The Forge Facebook Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/TheForgeGroup/

Omer specializes in Facebook ads, sales funnels, membership sites, and running profitable webinars. Before we start today we wanted to tell you this was one of the most interesting topics and interviews we have had on the podcast. Omer and myself explore the power and depth of Facebook and what type of technology Facebook is using and will be using in the future. We talk about the influence Facebook has and whether it is more powerful than the US Government. We talk about how Donald Trump used Facebook to win the presidential election, how Facebook is the largest connected network of humans in the history of the world….and we talk a little bit about how you can use this for your business too. At the time of the interview, Omer was literally calling in from an island in Thailand so we have to apologize, there are some spots where the connection is weak and a bit of background noise. We are confident that you will be so engaged in this topic that it won’t bother you too much. And with that….let’s jump into the podcast! ~ 11:05: Most important things to have before you start Facebook advertising and the keys to a profitable Facebook advertising. ~ 18:00: Facebook Advertising financial strategy. ~ 20:28: Omer’s two most successful strategies to build his membership site. ~ 24:06: How Donald Trump Used Facebook to Win the Election. ~ 34:42: Does Facebook have more power than the U.S. Government? ~ 50:54: Omer and Chris Outtakes ~ CIA’s access to your personal life, Edward Snowden “FB passed YouTube as #1 video platform.” “In order to have a profitable Facebook advertising campaign, you need to have a really good offer or really good funnel.” Omer Bar “Donald Trump created the most successful digital voter suppression operations in history” Omer Bar “Facebook knows more about people today than the American government.” Omer Bar “Facebook passed YouTube as the #1 video platform” Omer Bar Honorable Mentions: http://www.fblab.co.il/ ‘The Four Hour Work Week’ Tim Ferriss http://fourhourworkweek.com/ Dave Huss http://growthscout.com/ Freakonomics http://freakonomics.com/ How Trump used FB to sway the election. https://medium.com/startup-grind/how-the-trump-campaign-built-an-identity-database-and-used-facebook-ads-to-win-the-election-4ff7d24269ac#.8keil9ihg ‘Snowden’ the movie http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3774114/ Contact Info: http://fblab.co.il/ Twitter: @omer_bar

“If you add a social element to the work that you do and the goals that you set, you will become immensely more productive. Literally, your productivity will skyrocket.” Maneesh Sethi In this episode, we have a special podcast dedicated to The Focus 55. For those of you that don’t know what a Focus 55 is, here you go. A Focus 55 is a 55-hour productivity workshop where you focus on 1-2 goals that will catapult your business in 55 hours. It is a time where we suggest putting off all other projects/goals/distractions that you may have so you can focus on these one or two things. We will be explaining the structure of The Focus 55, the point of it, and the incredible results that dozens of entrepreneurs have achieved. “Move fast and break things.” Noah Everton On the show with me to talk about this 3-day insane workshop is none other that the creator and brilliant mind behind the Focus 55, Noah Everton. Noah created the Focus 55 three years ago and has been generous enough to let us use the model in The Entrepreneur House. Now, Noah is also an entrepreneur and been a location independent for five years. Originally, he started off in the United States Air Force on the combat aircrew.

In this episode, we have a recent Alum of The Entrepreneur House on the show, Kamil Kaminski! Kamil is from Warsaw, Poland and runs a business providing content for entrepreneurs that don’t have much time by interviewing them and translating those interviews into blog articles. His background is in mathematics and education. He was developing an E-learning platform that would prepare students for their exams, but just before sealing the deal with venture capitalists he decided to pursue his dream of being location independent and starting a real business rather than working with a VC backed startup. He’s talents are content strategy, and creating educational blog posts. In this episode, we will address the why behind content, writing a blog and why they are both important. We will also touch on new business and product ideas and how to scale them from 0-$4,000 in one month.  P.S. We have to let you know we had some connection issues during the podcast and there are a few choppy places in the audio. Many apologies we did the best we could to patch it up nicely. Valuable Tips from Kamil: The questions you should ask yourself before you start a new business or product…. 1. Are you excited to work on this everyday for the next 4 years? 2. Would you like to have lunch with your clients every Friday? 3. Is it scaleable and can it run without you? 4. Will it launch quickly? “It’s human nature to write about yourself. What you should be doing is writing about the person who is going to be reading your blog.” Kamil Kaminski “I though f*** that….I told the VC’s I won’t take their offer.” Kamil Kaminski “I created my offer using the exact problems and objections they had.” Kamil Kaminski Honorable Mentions: Tropical MBA Podcast http://www.tropicalmba.com/ DCBKK Conference http://www.tropicalmba.com/dcbkk-in-25-photos/ Taylor Pearson https://taylorpearson.me Niel Napier https://jobrack.eu/ Clare Goodwin http://solepal.com/ Paul Levine http://theentrepreneurhouse.com/ep-123-building-an-audience-live-workshop-inside-the-entrepreneur-house-w-paul-levine/ Dan Norris http://7daystartup.com/ Dynamite Circle http://www.tropicalmba.com/dc/ Ep. 127 ~ The Power of Giving Away Your Time http://theentrepreneurhouse.com/ep-127the-power-of-giving-your-time-a-wrap-up-to-chiang-mai/ Contact Info: hi@kamin.ski contentmarketingdoneforyou.com http://www.kamin.ski/
