Why Dave Chose to Interview Julie Stoian:

Julie Stoian is the FIRST female Dream Car Winner Affiliate, she's rocking her new minivan in style. Not only was she a Dream Car Affiliate though she is also a 2 Comma Club winner and even a member of Inner Circle. She has become the best at what she does and we're excited for her to help you learn how you can do the same in your business.

Tips and Tricks for Your Business:

You can become the best in the world at what you do, if not the best than at least better than what you already were (1:50)
There's importance with becoming obsessed with what you do (4:16)
The greatest in the world has mastered their craft to the extent where they are able to help others get to the same level they're at (7:16)
When you teach others what you do, you can be learning more for yourself than you're teaching your students (9:22)
The greatest success you can have is to mentor someone to the extent where they surpass you (10:06)

Quotable Moments:

"There's only a limited 'Best in the World' slots. But I think a lot of people forget if you aim high, you'll go a lot further than if you aim low."

"I see this happen all the time with you, with Russell, and with all the people at ClickFunnels is this idea of obsession. People that become the best in the world become completely 1000% obsessed with what they are doing."

"You see that happens when people become the best at what they do, they stop focusing on the money. They know that the money comes with the value and start to focus more on their legacy."

Other Tidbits of the Podcast:

How much are you willing to do for your business or clients?

Julie's dentist told her a few years back about the importance of flossing, she had been told this her whole life and had little faith she could change this habit of forgetting to floss. However, she decided to take action and finally devote the time to develop the habit. Years later her she's still flossing and she's learned to apply this principle in her own business.

Life has more meaning as money becomes less of a focus and your legacy takes its place.

Julie has set the goal this year of becoming one of the best funnel building teachers in the world. She loves what she does and now that her dream has finally become a valid source of income she can really start to devote all her time into it.

How to pick an industry and dive deep into a profitable niche. Most importantly he tells you step by step what you need to do to scale your business from startup to 6, 7 and even 8 figures. He consults on multi-million-dollar e-comm acquisitions and reveals his secrets in this episode.

Quotable Moments:

"I lean now towards mass market. I want to be able to say this product is relative to anyone of this gender in this age range. That's my ideal, right, and then you niche down from there."

"What I'm trying to do is plant seeds, water those seeds every month for four months, and grow a mango tree that feeds my family for generations. I don't want to just go out and spear a bunch of fish one day."

"More things have failed than worked."

Other Tidbits of the Podcast:

Ezra's business may have a yearly revenue in the millions, but his heater breaks for unknown reasons at the most inconvenient times just like the rest of us.

Ezra learned that losing money on the short run for marketing is what catapults your business forward in the long run.

If you can sell 30 $5 ticket items that's great, BUT Ezra wants you to think of how you're going to pay for more ads to get other people to buy it. Will those same people come back to buy again? Not likely.

With transparency, your company can get the jump on this competition.

Ezra comes forth with his and Russel's secret Ju-Jitsu vs. Wrestler square off they had in the kitchen at Pirates Cove. We are potentially going to be presented with a round 2 on Funnel Hacker TV down the road. Prepare yourselves for a showdown that'll rock the internet harder than the release of "What Does the Fox Say" on YouTube.

Show notes

Why Dave Chose to Interview Phil Singleton:

Phil Singleton has owned and operated a digital marketing agency since 2005. Now he has more business than he knows what to do with. He reveals why on this episode. He is an award winning author but nothing has given him as much credibility as being a Podcast Guest. He explains the SEO benefits of Podcast guesting, the things you need to do, the things you should not do and what you can do to get on more podcasts and get referred by the host to other podcasts.

Quotable Moments:

"I've been doing this for 12 years, I've never seen any content marketing or SEO tactic delivered this much value and benefit for this kind of effort that we've put into it."

"We were already going down this path because our whole thing these days is building people's authority and separate them and try and make their websites look good in the niche they're in."

Other Tidbits of the Podcast:

Phil is an advocate for being a guest on a podcast to grow your reach. He even said how he kicks himself in the butt for not making his own podcast earlier.

Dave HATES writing out blog posts it's just not his strong suit nor his interest as opposed to public speaking. Due to Phil finding this so relatable he gave us a few places to go to look for outsourcing these more tedious tasks to people more experienced than us

This podcast will be a test-run to being posted onto more social media platforms than ever. Of course, Phil was flattered.
