Welcome back to Making Bank. On today’s episode, we have a compilation of previous episodes with David Lekach, Jason Treu, Ted Miller III, David Wood, Jeff Dudan, David Baker and Jeffrey Madoff and in this episode you will hear tips and tricks from top entrepreneurs about the guide to success.
(2:53) David Lekach
Be hyperfocus, be hyper resourceful. Your idea needs to be unique. Your product needs to stand out. If you want your product to have a lasting shelf life, you need to go to retailers with a very unique and creative outside of the box product that way they will sell more and ensure a more permanent spot in their stores.
(9:13) Jason Treu
A team is everything. Getting smart people to work together, getting them to come up with new ideas and having a proper work ethic is the most important thing you can do for your business. You also need to build relationships because you need to have people who will support you and be there for you always.
(14:09) Ted Miller III
Having the skills of sales is very important. Learn how to sell or you'll never be able to move up in the world. The major game changer for you is to listen to a trustworthy financial adviser. Learning from someone who can teach you how to sell will really help your business.
(20:15) David Wood
Try to develop a good habit in your life everyday. It may take time for you to get used to it but after a few weeks or months, you will soon be doing that easily. Wake up and have something new and productive to do everyday. This will really improve your lifestyle.
(25:04) Jeff Dudan
If you’re not living on the edge, then you’re just wasting space. Out there on the edge is where all the good stuff happens. It’s out there in the margins where risks and rewards exist and you have the opportunity to challenge yourself and work without a net. If you’re too central you’re going to miss every opportunity.
(31:10) David Baker
Everyone can be an accidental entrepreneur. Everyone knows how to do something unique. What most people miss is how to wrap that into a business that can make them money. Know exactly what it is you’re good at doing and then find every possible means to make profit out of it. Never waste your skills.
(36:06) Jeffrey Madoff
The key to accomplishing your task is perseverance. As an entrepreneur you are going to face obstacles. You need to overcome the obstacle in order to be successful. Starting a business is very easy, the hard part is trying to keep it alive. You need immense perseverance so that you can push through anything.

Welcome back to Making Bank. On today’s episode, we have a compilation of previous episodes with Mike Mcderment, Jack Lee Matthews, Ethan Mollick, Jerry Fetta, Josh Elledge, David Neagle, Kevin Harrington and Mark Timm and in this episode you will hear tips and tricks from top entrepreneurs about the guide to success.
(2:30) Mick Mcderment
Culture is as important as marketing and anything else. Take lots of steps in ensuring a beautiful culture in your work environment. Make sure your employees feel that they matter. Take care of the team, so that your team takes care of your customers and in turn the business will be taken care of.
(8:06) Jack Lee Matthews
Understand your value and other people’s values. Everyone has value. You all have something to share. Learn to know what that is and inspire other people. Believe in yourself. You only have one life, live it to the fullest. Achieve your dreams. Don’t let others' failures determine where you stand.
(16:01) Ethan Mollick
Many people think entrepreneurship is a young man’s game and as a result they stop themselves from taking any opportunities. The average age for a founder is 42. Never assume it is too late for you to start. Gather your resources and do the business you want to. Take the step and give it your best.
(23:15) Jerry Fetta
Once a week sit down and have a wealth meeting. Have goals and check your income goal. Sit down and look where your income is coming from. Look at your budget. Always have a budget because it's important to know how much you spent.
(29:56) Josh Elledge
You find a way to do something very nice for the people you are trying to work with. Ask them what they’re looking for. Know what they need and offer to do something for them first at no cost. This is how you build relationships and how you can expand your network.
(34:58) David Neagle
You have to be clear on what you want. If you are uncertain, you need to go back and ask yourself who you really are and what you want to do with your life. You need to learn to make mistakes. The more you get to know yourself, the more you find your purpose.
(39:00) Keving Harrington
If you are in business, you need to learn how to accept failure. What you need to do is learn how to fail fast and fail cheap. Don’t hold onto something so tight. You always need to be ready to move forward when something fails. You learn from it and get over it and then you can move on quicker.
(43:07) Mark Timm
The one thing you can do if you want to change your trajectory, is to get the right mentors. No one's meant to do business alone. You need coaches, you need help. Talk to people who are already in the field. Ask for advice and get their insight on how to be successful. Get a mentor.

Success Mindset: Entrepreneurial Excellence #MakingBank #S8E24
Welcome back to Making Bank. On today’s episode, we have a compilation of previous episodes with Re Perez, David Meltzer, Chris Wyllie, Jamie Mustard, Ryan Coon, Jon Macdonald and Jonathan Keyser and in this episode you will hear tips and tricks from top entrepreneurs about the guide to success.
(2:32) Re Perez
Your brand’s name is very important. It is your main identity. When your name is unauthentic and it does not match what you provide, you can only go so far. You need to empower your brand with its name. Have an authentic purpose and be very clear with what your brand stands for.
(8:07) David Meltzer
Money is important but do not let it be the only reason you are working hard. Your relationship with money is important because it determines how you work in life. Train your mindset to have a giving character. The more you get the more you can give.
(14:09) Chris Wyllie
The biggest problem everyone faces is lack of control. We just need to learn how to control our problems. We need to develop a mentality where we find solutions instead of panicking. Our brain is capable of doing anything it thinks is capable of doing. It’s just a matter of getting it into the desired state.
(18:25) Jamie Mustard
If you want to be successful the first thing you need is attention and if you don't have attention you don't have a chance. As an entrepreneur, solving problems is what you will be doing for a living. That is why the ability to grab people’s attention is what will help you become successful.
(21:57) Ryan Coon
Not focusing on your audience is the biggest mistake many entrepreneurs make. Rather than focusing on building a product, focus on your audience. You can do it through blogs, podcasts, emails because once you build a trust with your audience you can focus on products or services that you can provide.
(24:45) Jon Macdonald
The best way to go about ecommerce is to never do things on your website that you wouldn’t do in a physical retail store. Learn to have empathy for your customers even if you cannot interact with them physically. Most ecommerce entrepreneurs do not consider the customer on the other side of the screen.
(28:12) Jonathan Keyser
The hardest part for most people is getting out of their own heads and figuring out how to be present more. Learn to be present and to ask questions to identify what people need. The more you can focus on whoever is in front of you that you are trying to do business with, the more it will feel authentic. Try to give something first before you ask for something.

Welcome back to Making Bank. On today’s episode, we have a compilation of previous episodes with Daymond John, Philip Stutts, David Wood, Drew Manning, Rob Dial, Cody Sperber and Michael Bernoff and in this episode you will hear tips and tricks from top entrepreneurs about the guide to success.
(2:51) Daymond John
Only tell people things about you that are easily digestible. This is because first impressions are very important. You do not want to bombard people with unnecessary details on the first meeting. Make sure you have an interesting reputation so that you can build a strong network.
(8:07) Phillip Stutts
Do not start a marketing campaign by guessing. It is never a good idea. Brainstorm around messages and ideas based on your data, what your customers want. Find out what they need and make sure you serve them. When it comes to marketing, never guess anything.
(10:53) David Wood
Learn to speak up. Learn to say the hard truth. Most people go around never having tough conversations. There may be a lot of risk in speaking up but you may gain a lot as well. It lifts up a burden off your chest. Never entertain passive aggressiveness because it will ruin you in the long run.
(17:42) Drew Manning
Keto, along with an intermediate fasting approach, works really well for entrepreneurs. When your brain gets adapted to ketones, the mental clarity you experience is through the roof. But if you’re glucose adapted you’re going to burn through glucose. That is why keto is the best approach for entrepreneurs.
(23:55) Rob Dial
The most important thing that most people neglect is the kind of people they surround themselves with. You have to get rid of some people in your life. Whatever you put in your brain, that is what will get out. Spend less time with people who are negative and spend more time with people who will teach you the right things to succeed.
(28:22) Cody Sperber
Learning to build an amazing team that is more capable than you is very important. However, this doesn’t remove you from the picture. You need to be the strongest link that holds this team together. You must also never neglect your family. They are as important as your team in order to be successful.
(37:19) Michael Bernoff
As an entrepreneur, you will get to a point in your life where you are sick and tired of your daily life. When you reach this point remember that when you think you are failing, you are not. You just do not like the place where you are at. Learn to move out of that place, pick yourself up so you can find your next goal to work for.

Welcome back to Making Bank. On today’s episode, we have a compilation of previous episodes with Erik Van Horn, Nir Eyal, Stefan Georgi, Craig Ballantyne, Phil Jones, Aaron Stokes and Trav Lubinsky and in this episode you will hear tips and tricks from top entrepreneurs about the guide to success.
(2:36) Erik Van Horn
Become a better leader. Start making really good hires. And lastly, find the right business partners. Find people that are like you, someone who shares the same vision, same strength. Surround yourself with visionaries to make it work really well. You need someone that enjoys doing their work.
(6:23) Nir Eyal
The key to success is all about seeing discomfort differently. So many self help gurus tell us we should be happy all the time. This is not true. Feeling bad isn’t bad. Having a bad day isn’t bad. Instead we should harness these uncomfortable moments and do things that are helpful instead of hurtful.
(13:00) Stefan Georgi
Try to take what you can from people. Take every good point you can find and then you can combine them all and create your own after. Look at a bunch of stuff that is working for your business and try to implement it on your own.
(19:51) Craig Ballantyne
A lot of people struggle with bedtime. Go to bed at the same time every night and get up at the same time everyday. Most people would miss their sleeping time and then end up staying longer than usual. Keep an alarm so you can mentally prepare yourself everyday when you sleep. Be consistent with your sleep schedule.
(25:08) Phil Jones
When you are selling something to someone, if you do not believe in what you are selling, no amount of marketing skills will sell it for you. People will see right through you and they won’t buy from you. Get clear on what you are selling and believe in it so that you can then talk to people about it confidently.
(29:00) Aaron Stokes
A lot of us when we are at standstill, we tend to use the easiest way out which is usually not even that great. We just want to save face. However, many times when you are stuck it is usually the ugly, uncomfortable way that is the right one. Never shy yourself from a path that may not be so flashy in order to get out of your swamp.
(33:04) Trav Lubinsky
The most important thing is to have a good story. You have to connect with the people that you are telling it to. It needs to resonate with your audience. That is why it is very important to know who you are as a brand and as a person so that you can really connect with your audiences.

Welcome back to Making Bank. On today’s episode, we have a compilation of previous episodes with Michael Gerber, Dan Martell, Rashawn Copeland, John Assaraf, Ian Stanley, Robert Kiyosaki and Joel Marian and in this episode you will hear tips and tricks from top entrepreneurs about the guide to success.
(2:33) Michael Berber
Most small businesses have no compelling story. They usually only advertise what they’re doing. This is irrelevant because what they intended to do should be more important. This should be the foundation of any great growing enterprise. When you start a business always have a clear goal on what you intend to do.
(10:24) Dan Martell
Companies that can grow their leaders the fastest, grow the fastest. You need to hire intelligent and motivated people and then you grow them. Train them, teach them all the things they need to learn to grow and then you will see your company grow very fast.
(17:50) Rashawn Copeland
Commit to your principles and values. Make promises to yourselves. Have Dos and Donts. Stay true to yourself. Most people want to do what’s right before doing what’s real. Stick to your vision. Coordinate your resources and don't ever waste time. It is your greatest asset. Don’t waste it.
(22:30) John Assaraf
Retrain your brain. Start to teach your people to have an earning mindset. In addition to learning new strategies, new methods you also need to have a strong mindset. If you don't have the beliefs you will sabotage your own work. So before you do anything else, work on your mindset and train your brain to have a winning mindset.
(26:30) Ian Stanley
The more people know about you, the more people will buy from you. Tell stories. Don’t ever be ashamed when you talk about yourself. You need to get past that. When you tell a story, they are listening to your story and they are reflecting back on their own life. You want people to relate to you so they can understand you more. This is also relevant in being an entrepreneur.
(35:02) Robert Kiyosaki
Go to seminars. Go to workshops. Never pass on an opportunity to learn new things. Also, if you ever want to teach or mentor people, learning is the best way to do that. Being rich doesn’t always mean having lots of money. You can also be rich by focusing on how many people you can serve. Focus on doing your best to give back to the world then you will be the richest person on Earth.
(39:20) Joel Marion
You have to be willing to change and adapt to new things. The internet is changing, the people are changing everyday. Everything is moving fast. You have to be agile and adapt. The ones who do not adapt, get left behind. If you want longevity in this space, you need to be open to change.
