00:01:15.220
to get you riled up and i'd love to hear your response but so yesterday my wife and i were
00:01:18.840
downtown oh well near downtown st louis grand avenue tower grove area we went to nice area
00:01:25.300
yeah it's a great area nice historic area it's got a lot of culture but anyway we um we were
00:01:30.280
eating at this uh restaurant we're having brunch with some friends and uh we were outside because
00:01:35.760
the weather was pretty good and the restaurant that we were at had a little bit of a like a
00:01:40.980
partition around the the outdoor seating area so where we were eating you know you had to
00:01:45.000
actually go into the restaurant to get in and as we were eating this uh this kid i would say he was
00:01:51.460
probably i don't know like fourth grade fifth grade he was not very old like a little black kid
00:01:57.400
i would say like he was dressed really sharp but he was definitely dressed like you could tell he
00:02:03.880
didn't have a lot of money you know right but he was but he was carrying he was carrying this like
00:02:08.320
uh well it was kind of a bag it was a duffel bag anyway he was real polite and he said
00:02:13.600
he said uh excuse me would you mind i'm selling candy i'm i'm trying to kind of run a business
00:02:20.980
and i want to raise money selling candy that's pretty cool yeah so it was pretty cool so i said
00:02:26.200
to him buddy i'd i'd love to buy candy but honestly i i don't have any cash like literally
00:02:30.520
so i kind of joked with him about you don't have a square or any sort of processing unit you know and
00:02:35.080
he said no so anyway he he walks away and i don't think anything of it until i notice that he
00:02:42.280
comes in to that area and was started to go door to you know table to table and uh clearly nobody
00:02:50.580
from the restaurant had an issue with it because they saw what he was doing but there was one lady
00:02:54.760
behind me that she just starts complaining she's like that's totally illegal that's totally
00:02:59.240
inappropriate and i was just like jesus what what is wrong with people dude like you have this young
00:03:05.380
kid i mean everybody's always quick to complain when kids are doing nothing no yeah and then you got a
00:03:10.820
kid who's out there hustling he's showing some ambition doing you know things that are productive
00:03:16.660
for him right he's not stealing he's selling something for money like that should be applauded
00:03:21.160
right so i guess i felt like i wanted to share that with you because i wanted you to go off because i
00:03:25.300
want you people obviously listen to you when that happens do everything you can to encourage that
00:03:31.860
yeah man totally because that's the problem with with with our society right now is we have kids
00:03:38.020
that are being raised without that uh you know idea or or skill set or ambition because the minute
00:03:46.560
they show it it gets squashed by some quote-unquote authority figure because you happen to be annoying
00:03:52.700
her fucking brunch you know dude how self-centered of a person is that like to even like get that upset
00:04:00.940
about you know you're interrupting my fucking brunch right you know get the fuck out of here right
00:04:06.540
funny funny sequel to that though a couple minutes later kasha continue and i continue to eat all of
00:04:12.500
a sudden we literally hear someone behind us moaning like literally going like oh and that same
00:04:20.340
woman that was complaining had gotten stung by a bee karma yeah seriously no i was like high five jesus
00:04:26.180
that was awesome uh but uh but it was crazy she acted like she had just been napalmed or something
00:04:32.240
yeah but i thought i thought she wasn't yeah i thought there was a connection there between the
00:04:36.460
complaining and then the and then just hey man you know what when you're negative finds negative
00:04:42.460
yeah you know when you put out negative i don't i've seen it a trillion times when you put out
00:04:47.760
negative negative comes and gets you you know what i'm saying like if you complain more bad shit's
00:04:51.980
gonna happen to you it's just the way it is and um you know too bad it wasn't like a whole swarm of
00:04:58.120
bees that's my opinion yeah that might have been a little bit like that should go play in fucking
00:05:02.360
traffic seriously but all this to say to trans a transition then this into yet another related
00:05:09.220
topic and that is that leave it to you man leave it to you to get a a number one new seller and the
00:05:17.240
book isn't even out yet yeah well i mean that isn't that isn't me it's it's our awesome loyal following
00:05:23.820
that we have you want to tell them what we're if they haven't already figured it out what we're
00:05:27.380
talking about yeah well i mean and and also why i brought up the story to begin with which is
00:05:33.900
it's interesting that we got the number one without having to really promote it you know you see a lot
00:05:37.980
of dudes having to go out and promote their shit like all over the place and go so hard and and um
00:05:44.260
and i understand that that's cool and everything but you know it's cool that we don't have to do that
00:05:48.740
because we have such a loyal following and an amazing dedicated uh you know culture behind the mfceo
00:05:56.120
brand it's not surprising to me that most of the people listening want their kids to have the
00:06:01.200
biggest advantage possible and that's why we wrote the books that's why we created the brand of otis and
00:06:07.220
charlie um we wanted to give you guys a tool to help you teach the lessons like we're talking about with
00:06:16.800
this kid who's going out and being ambitious and working and doing something to be productive
00:06:21.780
um you know unfortunately society hasn't created uh an effective strategy for that you know we've
00:06:30.520
created a situation where kids are taught from the time they're zero to the time they're 22 when they
00:06:37.000
finish college that they're special that they're you know they're unique and that they're destined to
00:06:41.660
be something special and great by just you know showing up and the real world isn't like that and we
00:06:48.280
all know that we all know it's the truth and we all know it in our heart regardless of what we want
00:06:52.460
to believe is true and it would be nice if we were all special it would be nice if we were all destined
00:06:57.460
for greatness but the reality is you have to go out and fucking earn it and a lot of parents uh you
00:07:03.900
know the story the story behind the whole brand really kind of tells the story of why we do it you
00:07:09.600
know a lot of people don't realize how the whole idea came about uh you and i and tyler and emily
00:07:14.980
were flying back and chris i think was with us too we're chris and mindy and we were flying back
00:07:19.500
from uh i forget we're flying to or back i think we're flying to there salt lake city yeah to salt
00:07:26.320
lake city were we going there or coming back we were going we were going there and like i was kind
00:07:30.440
of like annoyed because you know i get paid to go speak and you know sometimes i get paid i don't
00:07:37.000
really like to go speak to groups it's not my thing i don't like it because um uh i feel like
00:07:42.780
you know i go up there i give my fucking best i tell people the real shit and they don't go out
00:07:49.200
and do anything and i was telling that story basically oh i was venting because i was annoyed
00:07:54.240
because i didn't really want to even leave st louis to go to fucking salt lake city um and i was
00:07:59.400
basically bitching and complaining about how i'm gonna go and it's gonna be like no other speaking
00:08:02.820
event that i do where uh or every other one where i go out and i fucking you know give all kinds
00:08:08.380
of great value and everybody that walks out of there is going to be like pumped for a couple
00:08:12.360
hours and then they're going to go home and do the same fucking thing and then i started venting
00:08:16.460
and and this is pretty common you know i'll vent and nobody will really say anything they'll just
00:08:20.940
sit there and listen and so it was kind of one of those situations and i'm like dude
00:08:24.600
you know people by the time they're 20 30 years old 40 years old which is the group of people that i
00:08:31.560
usually speak to they have embedded certain values into their brain certain habits into their brain
00:08:38.580
and it's very hard to get them to switch it's hard to get them to believe they can switch uh and for
00:08:43.700
that reason it's very frustrating for me when i go up and speak and nobody does anything you know i get
00:08:49.080
these messages all the time on instagram and an email oh hey man you know uh what else can i do or how
00:08:56.160
can i take it to the next level or what can i bro i fucking tell you every day for free um and that's
00:09:03.360
frustrating you know what i mean when i'm giving out the real information people have this idea that
00:09:08.080
i'm giving out the fucking the tip of the iceberg and i'm keeping the real shit no i'm telling you how
00:09:14.860
it is and uh that that frustrates me and it makes me not want to go speak to adults and so i verbally
00:09:21.380
vented about this and i said dude you know what we need to do we need to start writing books for
00:09:25.420
teenagers and i'm like and i thought and i said well you know by the time kids are teenagers
00:09:30.640
they usually have a lot of their values embedded in them what we really need to do is we need to
00:09:35.740
write fucking children's books like dr seuss and i said it out loud like half joking but as soon as i
00:09:42.020
said it all these guys that were on the plane looked at me like like like i just said something
00:09:46.340
gold and i'm like fuck that's a great fucking idea and uh and that's where the idea came from the idea
00:09:52.380
was to create a set of books that teaches kids the reality of things that are getting lost in the
00:09:58.920
shuffle today things that aren't cool today and um you know it's not cool to tell kids that they
00:10:06.380
aren't that special and that they have to try to win the game and that it's okay to keep score and
00:10:11.520
it's okay to fucking dominate and it's okay to go out and do things when people are uh you know
00:10:17.180
boohooing on their dreams and you know all the shit that goes along with with the real real world
00:10:22.440
of success and and i get contacted by so many parents um this has been going on for years that
00:10:28.320
want to teach their kids the right shit but they're not sure what to teach them because they themselves
00:10:34.880
haven't become quote unquote wealthy or quote unquote successful by whatever successful standards
00:10:41.800
they think there is and so people are confused on what to teach their kids they're thinking like oh
00:10:47.280
well should you know is it the right thing to bring them up in this uh you know politically correct
00:10:52.060
world and tell them that they're special in this or that and build their self-esteem like all the
00:10:56.100
quote-unquote experts say or should i be telling them these other things like quote like the truth
00:11:01.860
um so that whenever you know they graduate college or they get into the real world however path
00:11:07.260
whatever path they choose takes them eventually into the real world you want them prepared you
00:11:13.140
want them to know what to expect you want to have the values instilled in them and not let these
00:11:18.300
fucking you know crazy fucking ultra liberal fucking teachers who tell everybody that they're going to win
00:11:25.140
they're going to be great and this is how it should be as opposed to how it really is and that's the
00:11:30.220
reason behind the book there is no political context to the book it just so happens that ultra liberals are
00:11:35.720
the ones that run the universities and the school systems and they teach kids to be idealist versus
00:11:40.320
realist and there's no value in that there's no value in teaching someone how to survive in a world
00:11:46.380
that quote-unquote should be i'm not arguing it that it should or shouldn't be that way i'm arguing it the
00:11:54.200
way it is and i'm going to tell you right now there's lots of people out there that that want to teach
00:11:59.240
their kids and it's smart of you to think that to teach their kids you know the things based upon
00:12:07.000
the world the way it really is versus how it should be i agree it should be different there should be
00:12:11.940
it would be great if everybody was special it would be great if everybody uh was going to be fucking
00:12:17.060
super successful and and grow this meaningful awesome impactful existence that's not reality the
00:12:24.740
reality is you have to earn those things and earning those things starts with them implementing
00:12:28.540
certain core values into someone's personality and character when they're fucking tiny before they
00:12:34.300
get poisoned with this bullshit idealist culture and i think you know people are resonating with that
00:12:40.320
and we're heat i'm not surprised i am a little surprised that it got to number one uh based off us
00:12:45.600
promoting it literally zero times um but i'm not surprised as well because i know that the people listening
00:12:51.480
right now and we have a giant podcast we are one of the top podcasts in the world um the people
00:12:57.640
listening right now are tired of this shit man they're tired of the fucking idealist shit they're
00:13:02.600
tired of getting lied to so many of these people that are listening right now you guys listening you've
00:13:07.260
got lied to your whole life and you've just now figured it out and that's why you're listening to
00:13:10.620
this shit you know do your kids a favor do your your your your kids your nieces your nephews kids in
00:13:17.920
the neighborhood do them a fucking favor man and set them up with this this book you know our mission
00:13:23.260
here at and and that's my little pitch right hey go buy the fucking book but hey otis and charlie
00:13:28.580
play to win yeah play to win go buy both books we're gonna have 10 books 8 to 10 books um buy them
00:13:35.260
because they're good and you know the thing is is that we don't ask for much from you guys we don't
00:13:40.980
ask like hey you know buy this buy that buy this buy that we're not that but when we put something
00:13:47.080
out it is fucking good and and and i just want to say uh you know it's come out right before
00:13:52.760
christmas it'd be a great christmas gift um you know but for you guys who have already bought it
00:13:57.420

00:14:02.380
make like i don't know what fucking two dollars a book break even yeah it's like it's this point we
00:14:06.960
get way we for what we put into it and what it costs me to do i'd have to sell a billion books to
00:14:12.500
actually make money when when pixar buys the rights yeah like money like it's people think
00:14:17.900
oh you're selling these books you're getting rich look you're not nobody's getting rich on books

00:14:28.060
guys thank you for believing in the message and thank you for spreading the message because
00:14:32.840

00:14:40.220
culture it wasn't about hey let's make money like dude i get i get approached by huge brands
00:14:45.140
all the fucking time to come on the podcast and advertise i mean dude i could make easy six figures
00:14:50.040

00:15:13.360
everybody fucking knows that yeah and that's actually what i told them too politely um but
00:15:18.620
you know we don't do this because of the money and i'm trying to keep it genuine and organic and real
00:15:26.160
and not make it a commercial thing you know what i mean like we want to make a difference and i just
00:15:30.780
want to say thank you guys for believing in the message for living the message for doing your part
00:15:36.200
and changing culture because i promise you all of us together are doing the right thing we are
00:15:41.460
setting the next generation up and building a legacy that fucking matters all right these kids
00:15:46.640
don't have a fucking they don't have a chance in hell with the way that the education system is set
00:15:51.660
up now and the way culture is set up and this politically correct fucking bullshit message is
00:15:56.340
getting shoved down everybody's throat these kids don't have a fucking chance unless we give them a
00:16:00.540
chance and that's why we're doing this so i just want to say thank you um whether you bought the book
00:16:06.040
or didn't buy the book but buy the book or you just support the podcast or you bring your friends
00:16:11.720
or whatever you do to help us out guys you like my statuses you like vaughn statuses um don't like
00:16:17.440
tyler statuses but my point is guys i just want to say thank you guys for supporting this because it's
00:16:23.580
been really cool um i've been fortunate in business not just to you know be successful financially but
00:16:31.180
to be in a business where i can make a huge impact you know there's not many other businesses where
00:16:36.240
you get to really change people's lives we sell products we make products we we educate people
00:16:41.940
that help them get their lives back most people know that you know a year ago a year and a half
00:16:46.800
ago i was 330 plus pounds i'm down to 260 which is you know for me i'm pretty lean at 260 um i've
00:16:55.640
i've taken my life back and i can't tell you how much of an impact that's made on me
00:16:59.800
and i'm in a business where we get to do that all the time but i'm also fortunate that i get to do
00:17:04.980
things like this podcast to make content where people can change their lives in other ways um
00:17:10.880
and make an impact in other ways and i i just feel like you know one of the most fortunate people on
00:17:17.020
the earth when it comes to what i get to do on a daily basis uh as far as spreading good messages
00:17:23.420
and helping people and and and and you guys who are listening right now are the foundation of that
00:17:28.920
because if it wasn't for you a i wouldn't sell any product b uh we wouldn't be making an impact
00:17:36.440
c our podcast wouldn't be one of the top podcasts in the world okay you know the idea of success and
00:17:44.180
the ideas that we express on this podcast are not dead it's how most people think the media pushes a
00:17:50.620
different agenda the media tells us how to think in other ways and what's politically correct and
00:17:54.620
what's not and how we should think and how the world should be we talk about how it fucking is
00:17:59.120
and you guys i just want to say thank you because more than anything you give me hope
00:18:05.140
that our world isn't fucking done absolutely you know what i mean yeah to me what's really exciting
00:18:12.980
just i'll add this is that uh you know in light of this whole otis and charlie movement it's cool when
00:18:19.600
you look on social media and different platforms and you see like something i saw the other day
00:18:24.000
this little five-year-old girl named pearl mcleanagan i think i'm saying that right
00:18:28.840
pearl mcleanagan gan or hand i don't know but i think it's gan because it's g-h-a-n but i think
00:18:35.280
but anyway any be that as it may little pearl little pearl all right little pearl did us a huge solid
00:18:40.960
she did her book report on otis and charlie's excuse me uh charlie the bulldog's fantastic fruit stand
00:18:47.300
so every kid in that little grade school in in california at least in the class got exposed to the truth
00:18:53.740
yeah and that's massive change right there it is it is so it is because they're not hearing that
00:18:58.840
shit from their fucking teachers who never did a damn thing in their entire life but go and get a
00:19:03.380
fucking basic degree and get a teaching job think of the perspective that these kids are being taught
00:19:09.060
from you're going to allow someone and dude there are some great teachers i've i have been i don't say
00:19:16.220
luck very much but i have been extremely fucking lucky to have amazing teachers in my life uh the
00:19:23.580
president of my high school mike loyette who's one of the most genuine and good humans i've ever
00:19:28.220
fucking met in my life had this is a guy who was making six figures he has masters in accounting was a
00:19:35.460
cpa he gave up all that to become a teacher because he wanted to make an impact and that man had so
00:19:41.700
and many others at my high school they don't make a lot of money you know what i'm saying these guys
00:19:47.100
dedicate their lives to impacting people because they care and there is some teachers out there that
00:19:53.220
fucking do that so when i say what i'm about to say understand that i know there's a difference but
00:19:58.200
there's also a lot of teachers that don't give a fuck about kids and they tell kids to be realistic
00:20:03.860
they tell kids that they can't do it and you know what at my high school i had teachers also like
00:20:08.560
that i had teachers that told me i couldn't do you tell me that story yeah i had a guidance
00:20:12.720
counselor who told me that i wasn't fucking good enough and that i should probably just
00:20:15.840
you know do some other things and you guys will see me post about that because i don't forget that
00:20:20.280
shit you know what i mean i'm lucky enough to have that fire inside me to let that motivate me but so
00:20:26.080
many people aren't there's a lot of people out there that hear that shit and they quit no that's
00:20:30.180
bulletin board material yeah for me it is yeah but not everybody's like that you know most of the
00:20:34.480
teachers i know they literally got in the teaching so they could have summers off i know i know dude
00:20:38.520
and i and i i wouldn't say most but there's at least uh there's at least half of the teachers
00:20:42.480
out there like that because there are some really good teachers that do it for the right reason
00:20:45.800
so like if you're a teacher and you're listening and you're you're probably the good kind and and i
00:20:51.360
thank you for that because we need more of that but there is a lot of teachers that don't give a shit
00:20:54.740
and for that reason i do believe teachers should be paid three four five times as much because if you
00:21:00.680
if they if they could pay more then higher quality individuals would go to be teachers you know
00:21:05.780
what i mean and that's the problem we have with that they should be paid a lot more um now yeah
00:21:12.300
that's my breath yeah um you know the thing is is that dude i'm all megawatted up yeah no that's good
00:21:18.700
i fucking i fucking hammered down some megawatt right before i came in here because i was going to work
00:21:22.220
out because we weren't going to do a podcast right i was just going to do it later and i was going to
00:21:25.700
work out so now you're getting megawatt fueled fucking ms ceo project but not that we need it
00:21:32.180
right but you know the thing is is that this is about impact this is about helping people and
00:21:38.700
like dude at the end of the day no matter how much money you make no matter what car you drive no
00:21:41.920
matter what house you're in it's our obligation to make sure that the fucking people that come behind
00:21:46.180
us are equipped to handle the reality of life and and you guys who are listening all know the reality
00:21:51.640
you know the reality it's not what you were taught growing up it's not fucking peaches and
00:21:56.200
fucking roses and good fucking times all the time you have to teach your kids the right skills and
00:22:00.820
that's why we have the books and i i just dude more than the sales more than the number one more
00:22:06.000
than anything else dude it just it it like gets me fired up about humanity that we have people out
00:22:13.940
there that believe in the shit that you and i believe in and haven't like just we just this
00:22:20.520
fucking politically correct bullshit nonsense idealist shit hasn't poisoned the world as much as they make
00:22:28.980
it look like it has on right you know what i mean right but the flip side of that too is you the
00:22:33.120
numbers don't lie man yeah the numbers don't lie look at our fucking numbers no absolutely i'm saying
00:22:37.320
no 100 um the flip side of that is then the more people who actually stand up and speak the truth
00:22:44.940
the more people will do it dude and hopefully that's right will turn and and that's why i always ask
00:22:50.080
you guys to to refer your friends bring your friends in uh let your people know that this this
00:22:56.460
information is out there and this content is out there because dude so many people other than you
00:23:03.580
got then your friends listening are sick of fucking this they're sick of it they're sick of the bullshit
00:23:09.300
that's being taught they're sick of the ideas that are being jammed down our throats they're sick of
00:23:14.480
you know us being told that we need to be this way or that way and this way you know think about how
00:23:20.520
many times you have this conversation at barbecues or you're drinking beers you know and maybe i'm
00:23:26.120
immersed in a little more than ever but like dude everybody i'd speak to just fucking tired of this
00:23:30.520
bullshit you know and it starts with our kids you know people are like why haven't you written a
00:23:36.560
an adult book well because most of you adults are already kind of set in your ways right and we are
00:23:42.940
writing a really good adult book which i have no doubt will be a number one times bestseller because
00:23:47.120
isn't that fucking good but we gotta we gotta start and fulfill our moral obligations first
00:23:54.640
you know we've got to take care of the next generation and that's that's why the books are
00:23:58.680
being written i get dude i get asked so many times man why do you why do you write children's books and
00:24:04.060
not adult books because it's more important you know what i mean you're gonna definitely influence
00:24:09.300
more it's more important it's it's kind of like the what what is that principle and finances that
00:24:14.120
the more you the more money you put in up front when you're saving like for an ira the the much
00:24:19.340
greater the dividends yeah compounding interest you know or uh whatever compounding returns um no
00:24:25.180
that's how we look at it and you know for those of you whose kids aren't you know three to four or
00:24:30.400
five well the cool thing vaughn is this is like because when i was brought up you know and i'm a little
00:24:38.920
bit older generation than a lot of the people listening i'm 38 all right when i was brought up
00:24:43.920
all the kids were taught to be competitive all the kids were taught to win they were taught the
00:24:48.800
reality they were taught to work hard so the competition was tough but now if you want your
00:24:54.020
kids to have a gigantic advantage if you just teach them the basics when the other kids aren't being
00:25:00.460
taught that think how much of an advantage they have right it's a disproportionate advantage you know
00:25:06.520
and that's why that's what i'm excited about i'm excited about the results that we're going to see
00:25:12.060
15 years from now from the books that are being written now oh yeah you know what i mean yeah and
00:25:17.080
like dude when people tag tag me in their photos of their kids reading that's the best dude it's the
00:25:21.680
fucking coolest thing like it's the coolest fucking thing ever speaking of which guys if you if you do
00:25:26.380
buy the book a huge huge huge way that you can do us a solid is is just to write a write a review
00:25:33.320
on the uh on amazon because amazon uses those to rank uh the availability and the uh the visibility
00:25:39.300
of the different books so that that really helps but what i was going to say is that if you have
00:25:43.860
young kids if you have like two i'm sorry if you don't have young kids if you don't have like
00:25:47.340
uh you know three four five year olds but you have just a little older like eight or nine
00:25:51.620
just wait oh yeah just wait yeah that's all i'm going to say so we're working backwards yeah but it's
00:26:00.020
the right way yeah it's the right way look man doing shit the right way has never failed me it might
00:26:04.840
take a little bit longer right i might spend more time doing things that other people aren't willing
00:26:09.400
to do but the reality is in the long term it's always coming to my benefit so you know i'm willing
00:26:13.740
to work backwards absolutely you know absolutely but the topic speaking of all the different resources
00:26:19.620
that was that like a 40 minute pitch for the fucking book but the topic that we're talking about today
00:26:25.100
in light of the the different resources that you've been developing man is uh well why don't you tell
00:26:31.440
people we're we're coming up one of the one of the signature courses that we're coming up with
00:26:35.720
that you're going to deliver here in the next what couple months well the whole the the whole idea i
00:26:42.740
think is really cool of of the entrepreneurship academy that we're starting um right now we've got
00:26:48.060
20 courses that are going to be uh exclusive to people who get approved uh through an application
00:26:55.480
process so it's not like you know these fucking bullshit internet courses they're sold all over to
00:27:01.020
place this is an actual academy based on real principles how to start a business how to grow
00:27:06.480
a business how to handle all the things that go along with a business in practical terms will there
00:27:11.740
be motivation in there yeah motherfucker because the way i speak is motivational so you're going to get
00:27:16.180
motivated too right but the focus is going to be on how to actually build something and how to take
00:27:21.440
the skills that we talk about here and practically apply them whether you are starting a business or
00:27:28.000
whether you're inside of a business and you want to become more valuable so um it's application only
00:27:33.760
uh we're only approving people that meet the certain criteria that we're setting up from the beginning
00:27:38.800
it's not open to the public again this isn't about making a trillion fucking dollars this is about
00:27:44.640
making an impact with people that that are going to actually go out and use the information and uh
00:27:49.740
i think what's going to make it different is that we you know this is going to be like harvard for
00:27:58.760
entrepreneurs yeah you see what i'm saying yeah like harvard don't let everybody in i'm not interested
00:28:03.700
i don't need anybody's fucking money like i'm i've made a lot of fucking money and i make a lot of money
00:28:08.560
this isn't about that this is about selecting unique individuals that i believe in that are going to go
00:28:15.920
out and execute and create impact in whatever their world is i like that idea i don't want to be the
00:28:22.640
guy that's going to whore out bullshit information uh and just try to make a dollar that's not what
00:28:27.220
this is about this is about actually helping you guys become successful in the real world and having
00:28:33.920
you guys go out people are like how can i repay you you know how you repay me by doing what the fuck
00:28:38.540
you're supposed to be doing and do it great and that's why it's you know it's it's application only type
00:28:44.500
deal um but we did talk about so the signature course or in some ways one of the one of the uh
00:28:50.520
well i don't know if i even want to say the name of it because i i because we're gonna have the book
00:28:55.700
we're gonna have a book about that as well right um and i don't really i it's kind of my top secret
00:29:01.340
deal that i don't good point so how how about we focus on one of the core why don't we give
00:29:05.560
them a little preview by focusing on one of the core well the main thing is is i'm going to show you
00:29:10.360
exactly how to fucking grow a business starting with one fucking customer if you can't go out and
00:29:16.180
get one fucking customer right now you're there's something wrong with you all right all you need is
00:29:21.900
one and i'm going to show you how to build a hundred and fucking something million dollar company out of
00:29:25.760
one customer because that's what i fucking did you know a lot of these people out there are talking
00:29:29.540
about oh i did this i did that and i didn't do you didn't do a goddamn thing other than sell
00:29:34.140
fucking internet courses no offense you know i'm not going to knock anybody's hustle but i'm going to tell
00:29:39.460
you right now if i'm trying to learn from somebody i'm going to learn from somebody who built something
00:29:42.440
from scratch not walked into it at five million dollars or three million dollars or a million
00:29:47.820
dollars dude took me 10 fucking years to get to a million dollars in sales all the good shit that i
00:29:51.820
learned came in that 10 fucking years i didn't you know like had i walked into something at a million
00:29:56.960
dollars what the fuck would i really know i would have missed out on a 10 years worth of experience
00:30:00.560
and if i want to learn that's who i want to learn from and that's why i'm doing this because no one
00:30:04.200
else out there is fucking doing it they're selling these bullshit you know instant uh you know roi type
00:30:10.800
courses hey i'll show you how to retarget on fucking facebook and you'll you know you could sell x you
00:30:16.620
could sell this bottle of fucking pills and you could make fat you know like it's it's not how to build a
00:30:21.780
real brand it's not how to build a real company it's not how to build something that's worth something
00:30:25.940
people are so these days are so fixated on instant gratification and i can make this much money in
00:30:35.100
this much time but you don't have anything to show for it dude i make a lot of fucking money and guess
00:30:39.880
what i got a company that's worth fucking half a billion dollars don't you want that don't you want
00:30:45.520
to do it the right way if you're going to put in the fucking time instead of always trying to worry
00:30:48.860
about where your cash is coming from this is for people that want to build something this isn't for
00:30:52.860
people that are looking for an instant roi tomorrow you get what i'm saying right absolutely
00:30:58.700
so i'm gonna you know the the idea of the academy is to unlock all the fucking potential in people
00:31:05.060
that that are accepted you know and i'm not going to bring people in that that i don't think can
00:31:09.340
fucking do it that's that so we're gonna have an application process which we'll have online
00:31:14.520
probably in the next 30 days or so um and i imagine we're going to have a lot of people apply
00:31:19.640
but we're also going to accept a very few amount of people so uh you know a lot of people have been
00:31:26.660
asking me what how do i get in how do i get in well um there's only really two ways to get in one
00:31:31.640
you're gonna have to apply and the other one is i actually award uh access to the academy through
00:31:38.320
the two-minute drill that we do on my posts so there's ways that there's ways to do that as well
00:31:43.440
um but you know i'm not this isn't about money it's not about like oh you know i want to have
00:31:48.900
everybody do it because if everybody does it then everybody has the secret you know what i mean
00:31:53.120
everybody has the skills and i don't want to fuck with that i want people that are actually going to
00:31:57.620
use it you want to give give to those who are going to use it yeah who are worthy who are willing
00:32:02.500
to work you know like i don't want the worst thing that could happen to me is somebody come in
00:32:06.860
uh you know apply apply get in pay to be a part of it and then all of a sudden uh you know they're like
00:32:13.440
well it doesn't work because you didn't fucking work so you know this isn't for the get rich quickers
00:32:20.680
this is for the people that are looking to be you know eight figure nine figure ten figure guys over
00:32:25.840
the course of their life yeah yeah it's a different it's a different approach so you're going to give
00:32:30.700
a you give drop any knowledge what do you mean i do i drop knowledge every fucking time i open my
00:32:36.700
mouth i mean that's all i do is fucking drop knowledge give a little preview no like well what do you
00:32:42.960
want me to what are you getting at you're like winking at me now bond's like winking at me
00:32:46.500
trying to get me to say something i thought we were going to talk about your whole concept of
00:32:49.640
the lifetime value of a customer oh well i talk about that in the academy that's that so it's not
00:32:56.660
for the success what do you want me to get what do you want me to talk about i don't know i just
00:32:59.940
thought maybe well you tell me what he's winking at me like try and get me to say something i don't
00:33:03.460
know what the fuck he's getting at well i thought what we could do out of the sheer kindness of your
00:33:07.920
heart is share with people your whole concept of viewing a customer from the standpoint of their
00:33:13.700
lifetime value and to talk a little bit about that you don't have to give the whole thing but
00:33:17.580
talk a little bit about that i think that's the biggest part of that's the biggest part of i know
00:33:21.700
for a fact that's the biggest reason why businesses fail because they focus on acquisition far more than
00:33:29.620
retention loyalty and the biggest thing that i've done in my companies is that i have got my guys to
00:33:35.560
understand the value of a customer over the course of their life with and with my business and your
00:33:42.300
business is going to be different the lifetime value of a customer is well over a hundred thousand
00:33:46.440
dollars for us okay that means when you're having a conversation with someone who comes into your
00:33:51.840
store or comes into your website and they buy nothing they buy nothing the first time you should
00:33:59.420
still visualize a little bubble over their head that says a hundred thousand dollars and if you can
00:34:03.820
visualize a hundred thousand dollars or the lifetime value of a customer over the top of their head
00:34:08.020
how are you going to treat that customer what questions are you going to ask what are you willing
00:34:12.160
to do how far are you willing to go to make them excited how far are you willing to go to make them
00:34:17.840
so excited they tell their friends and getting into the actual practicals of how to do those things
00:34:23.920
is what will be in that course right okay so but the biggest thing and you could take this right now you
00:34:30.280
don't have to buy the fucking course because if you could visualize someone's lifetime value over
00:34:34.880
the course of their head over the top of their head whether you be on your website or somebody who
00:34:40.440
clicks through or somebody who you capture their email or somebody who's in your retail store or
00:34:45.740
somebody you see in the gym somebody you see in the grocery store somebody you i'm talking about
00:34:51.040
everyone if you could start seeing everyone for their lifetime value and you could teach your team to see
00:34:57.960
that you're going to grow massive amounts because the whole dialogue changes then the whole approach
00:35:06.440
changes imagine if you're a retail employee and you see a customer and you think oh that guy's going
00:35:13.120
to come in and he's going to spend two dollars with me and that's how your customers see it or your
00:35:17.120
employees see it by the way the guy who comes in every day and buys a soda or buys a water or buys a
00:35:21.840
beef jerky or a protein bar that's a two dollar customer he's not important right but what is the
00:35:30.160
value of his lifetime what is the value of his network how many people would he tell about your store
00:35:37.360
your business if you figured out a way to make a gigantic impact with him and make him say holy
00:35:43.420
fucking shit i love this place i love these guys i'll never shop anywhere else not only will i never shop
00:35:49.340
anywhere else but i'm going to tell everybody i know to come shop here now that guy's not a two
00:35:55.180
dollar guy anymore now he's a multiple hundred thousand dollar guy he's worth not a hundred he's
00:36:00.680
worth a hundred plus all the people that he communicate to and getting your employees to buy
00:36:05.960
into that mentality and getting your culture of your company to buy into that mentality is the biggest
00:36:11.800
thing that you can do and for example in my course i break it down step by step by step by
00:36:19.240
step by step all the different ways that i do this and how i teach my team how to do it okay so it's
00:36:26.080
the the course isn't going to be or is it going to be cheap either it's going to be expensive but
00:36:30.780
you're going to make it back on one customer and that's how you got to think about it you know and
00:36:35.520
in your experience most people in spite of the fact that what you're saying to me really does seem
00:36:39.700
like common sense but in your experience most sense because you're fucking here every day well
00:36:43.420
that's true but you're in your experience most people do still treat it at every other company
00:36:47.360
you go to uh like a one-time transaction exactly that's because that's the mentality all the people
00:36:52.840
who are listening right now that's the mentality of your company you might have a different mentality
00:36:56.760
but your company when you're not standing right there has the the fucking two dollar mentality right
00:37:01.980
and my job is to get you to understand how to get your whole entire culture aligned with the value
00:37:08.280
of a lifetime not the value of a one-time transaction and i think it's probably because one of those
00:37:13.440
things where a little success actually inoculates you against huge success because you probably could
00:37:18.660
be moderately successful viewing there's a whole book written about that good is the enemy of great
00:37:23.260
is that right yeah okay we'll see so basically what i was going to say is that because you can
00:37:28.540
run a decent business with a with a one-time transaction mentality you're you're not going to do
00:37:35.040
the extra effort it takes to do the lifetime relationship mentality but if you do you end up making
00:37:41.360
you compound your return yeah yes yeah dude i see so many missed opportunities in my day-to-day
00:37:48.500
experiences shopping other places eating at other places uh going to other you know businesses dude
00:37:55.040
every single one i go to i see literally dozens of missed opportunities to create
00:37:59.580
compounding returns yeah you know we live in a different world guys we live in a world now
00:38:05.780
where you could capitalize on people's compounding returns because they all have a voice
00:38:11.120
they have a facebook they have an instagram they have a twitter they might have a youtube channel
00:38:16.640
you don't know what the fuck they have and you can't treat somebody as if you know what they have
00:38:24.380
because you don't okay you you might be talking to someone who has 10 000 followers on fucking facebook
00:38:30.980
or 100 000 or a million you don't even fucking know and i i treat every single person i meet
00:38:37.680
as if they have 10 million followers on fucking instagram and can tell everybody about me with
00:38:44.060
the click of a fucking button yeah and if you treat everybody like that if you treat everybody like
00:38:49.800
that and you could teach your people to treat everybody like that and you could create experiences
00:38:53.500
that are based around treating everybody like that you ain't gonna have to fucking worry about money
00:38:57.040
ever again well dude especially nowadays where you know 50 years ago millionaires but understand like
00:39:02.020
there's a difference between me giving you that little bit of information and also breaking down
00:39:06.440
the step by step by step practicality of how to do it of course so so we talk about concepts here on
00:39:12.100
the fucking show and basically i kick you guys out into the real world and you guys it's up to you to
00:39:18.360
figure it out the court where the people are like well what you give out all the information for free on
00:39:22.660
the podcast well yes and no yes i give you the concepts no i don't give you the step-by-step
00:39:28.640
practical practical steps on how to fucking do this shit that's the difference between what i give on
00:39:34.620
the podcast and what will be an academy right absolutely but what i was saying just along with
00:39:38.960
your whole mentality is it's so important to value every person especially now more than ever because
00:39:44.180
like 50 years ago you could you could very easily point out a millionaire in a crowd because
00:39:48.360
culturally people you know were the three people yeah it looked a certain way whereas now you're
00:39:52.840
talking like mark cuban zuckerberg or whatever his name is you you could have some guy coming in your car
00:39:58.440
a fucking place all the time people don't know who the fuck i am and they fucking treat me like
00:40:02.080
shit yeah and i'm like yeah okay bro like here's me my camo shorts that i wear every fucking day
00:40:08.520
and my first form t-shirt and you know a hat right that's sweat stained and they they're like who the
00:40:16.600
fuck is this bum right they don't know i just rolled up in a seven hundred thousand dollar fucking car
00:40:21.220
and own a fucking nine-figure fucking company right you know what i mean they have no idea absolutely
00:40:26.420
and you should treat everybody like that sometimes everybody as if they're that guy absolutely and
00:40:30.420
sometimes it's not even because somebody has money i mean even even even not you what if i go into a
00:40:36.060
restaurant dude you know and and and they treat me horribly and then i decide to mention the name of
00:40:40.780
the restaurant on a podcast that gets a million people that listen to it but that's the point is
00:40:45.880
that you should think that every single person is the most important most influential person that
00:40:51.580
you've ever fucking known if you treat everybody like that if you treat everybody like they're
00:40:56.480
going to go out and they could fucking destroy your business with one fucking post you will treat
00:41:00.700
everybody so good that the opposite will happen they will grow your business absolutely not just you but
00:41:06.340
you know how many how many millionaires do you know that you know wear flip-flops on the daily
00:41:10.800
most of them i know most of them most of the ones i know look like kind of look like bums
00:41:18.640
because they can you know there's a funny meme that goes around the internet and it's like i don't
00:41:24.100
remember the exact words but it's funny it says like you know when i was young i used to i used to
00:41:28.520
think that everybody that was rich wore suits and this and that but then i realized that they work
00:41:32.300
for guys in shorts and t-shirts and that's the truth yeah like you know why the fuck would i want
00:41:38.060
to wear a suit every day yeah so guys we've had 188 episodes and in this episode we're actually
00:41:47.640
you know spending some time promoting some of the projects we've been working on i think it's more
00:41:51.820
like now i don't i think it's just more letting people know right right well the point being is
00:41:55.880
is that you know we're we're pitching this for lack of a better word because this is good stuff it's
00:42:00.900
going to change people's lives no shit it's going to change kids lives with the otis and charlie
00:42:04.720
it's going to change your life whenever when it comes to just the the the stuff that we got
00:42:09.780
coming down the hopper so i'm excited about it you know when you have a good product it's easy to
00:42:14.560
promote it look man i think uh we've demonstrated the value that that can be brought over the last
00:42:21.960
190 episodes that we've done so i'm not really concerned if people see value in it or not i
00:42:27.940
don't make my income off of this shit i don't really fucking care if anybody buys it i'm doing
00:42:31.420
it because i want to make an impact right you know you know i'm sitting here thinking you know
00:42:36.720
the funny thing is we don't even have a real name for the academy i've been calling it the
00:42:40.260
for sell entrepreneurship academy uh but i don't really have a name for it so if you could think
00:42:46.200
of a good name that you think is cool dude drop it in on a comment on my one of my posts and uh you
00:42:51.640
know whoever if somebody comes up with a name that we decide to use uh i'll give you free access to
00:42:57.160
the course you know that'd be kind of cool yeah that would be cool it's people's input on uh on what
00:43:01.900
they think the name should be but as of right now it's called for sell entrepreneurship academy
00:43:05.720
