  • Are you leading with the dream outcome, the likelihood of success, the price, or something else? Your customers want something high quality, guaranteed, fast, and easy. Hear the key ideas of Alex Hormozi's value equation from "$100M Offers", a helpful concept any business person or marketer can use regardless of your industry.


    (0:29) Hormozi's value equation:

    Dream outcome x likelihood of success

    divided by

    time delay x perceived effort

    = value.


    (1:30) Most brands get the top half of the value equation right.

    The hard part is the bottom. (Hence "easy top, hard bottom".)

  • Think of your favorite TV commercial of all time. What made it memorable? It was probably that it told a story that resonated with you. Unlike straight feature benefit ads that you'll often see from CPGs, like detergent or toothpaste, or from insurance companies, really memorable advertising tells a story and triggers feelings. The same goes for public speaking and generally all marketing. Stats or data help, too. It's about blending them. If you’re deficient in any one of the three pillars of persuasion, it’s difficult to get anyone to believe you or care what you have to say.

  • We used to actually watch a string of 30-second commercials for Downy and Doritos waiting for Seinfeld to come back on. Today is not the age of television, or patience, but the age of ultimate optionality. This is the age of TikTok and you need to keep these tips in mind when creating short form content. Create for people, not algorithms. The algos are getting smart enough that you can stop doing everything to appease them. What appeases the user naturally becomes what appeases the algorithm for any company that is or will be successful in the attention economy.


    Out for 2024:

    Slow talking and self-serving intros or teasers about what you're about to share (just SHARE IT!)

    Making people wait

    Making people click somewhere else (zero click content is in)

    Making people fill out forms

    Gated content

    Jeff Bezos once told Amazon employees, "I predict that one day, Amazon will fail." And that's a fair expectation for a successful company; most do.

    Our first iteration of Amazon was the Sears Catalogue. In the 1800s, there were no timezones across the United States. Sears began selling watches to help keep time. We have Amazon because we had Sears -- and the story goes back two hundred years. Sears Catalogue, the railroads, and democratizing American commerce - history rhymes.

  • Why are we such bad listeners, retaining only one-eighth of what we hear? Two reasons:

    (0:19) Reason #1: Schools teach reading, not listening: Listening is a different activity from reading and requires different skills. Reading and listening do not improve at the same rate when only reading is taught. Reading ability is continually upgraded while listening ability degenerates.

    **The typical student graduates into a society where they will have to listen about three times as much as they read. But they're only taught to read.**

    (1:25) Neurology: Our brains were not meant to read but to listen (campfire). Far off vistas calm the brain, close-up text creates cortisol.

    (2:00) Reason #2: Our brains. We think much faster than words are spoken: Words race through our brains at speeds much higher than 125 words per minute. We receive words at a very slow pace compared with brain capabilities.

  • The 40-60 minute conversation on your podcast could probably be just as substantive in 20-30. Generally, listeners favor shorter episodes over longer ones. But only 15% of podcasts are under the 10-minute mark (via Demand Sage, Sept. 2023). I share tips for getting your podcast to the perfect length listeners enjoy.


    3:30 Podcast molds are breaking. Podcast format isn't set in stone. The one thing it needs in order to be a podcast is an RSS feed. Length, cadence, guests, audio or video, format, and everything else are flexible.

  • So many companies think they're saving money by not hiring an internal marketing leader and relying solely on outside resources, but it ends up costing them more. Yes, you can outsource some marketing work. Strategists, freelancers, and marketing tools / SaaS / vendors can be great additions. But who is managing them from a strategic perspective, and does that person really understand the playbook and have the skillset to know if all the resources are delivering value? If not, you're running the field without a workable plan.

    Point: All marketing is one of three things:

    BrandingPRDirect response

    Everything else is just tactics. This concept from Bob Knorpp is so key.


    I go over the #1 marketing mistake I see brands make (this is the "marketable" concept via Samantha Russell).

    Success has less to do with tactics like social media or advertising; it's about whether you know why your business exists. Call it a north star, a reason for being. The rest will follow.

  • Online dating is broken the same way most sales and marketing are broken. Look at: Free trials. Previews. Phone screening for online dating so that the first date is a date, and not a meeting to get the double opt-in that would have happened in nature. A blind sales pitch without know-like-and-trust or a product preview has the same pitfalls in marketing a product as it does with a potential relationship. Screens / trials / previews create better outcomes.


    In a sales offer, you want to have a low time delay and a low perceived effort (that's the bottom half of Hormozi's value equation). The top half is the dream outcome and the likelihood of success. E.g.: "This person looks great. This product looks great. It looks like I'm going to have a high chance of success with meeting them or buying it. But what about the time delay and the perceived effort?"


    In this episode, more parallels between business and dating! One of my favorite topics. P.S. Dating is also just like hiring / job search for employee and employer.

  • Your customers want something great, likely, fast, and easy. A quick dive into Alex Hormozi's value equation from "$100 Million Offers". I recently read the book and this was the part that stood out to me as the most helpful concept that any business person or marketer can use.


    1) Hormozi's value equation:


    Dream outcome x likelihood of success

    divided by

    time delay x perceived effort

    = value.


    Most brands and products get the top portion right. The hard part is the bottom. 


    2) Plus: should you publish pricing or not?

  • "The Law of Five" comes from motivational speaker Jim Rohn who said that we are the average of the five people we spend the most time with. This concept needs a modern update: from an hours / exposure standpoint, your media diet can be even more impactful than your influences in protein form, like friends.


    Our beliefs, our habits, our health, our lifestyles, even our incomes—are all powerfully influenced by our social network. Remember, we are social creatures. We are molded, shaped, and influenced by those around us and those we let into our lives, INCLUDING through a screen or a pair of headphones.


    So, who are your top five? Are they lifting you up or bringing you down? Are they inspiring you to be the best version of yourself, or are they holding you back from realizing your full potential? Are you, perhaps, more influenced by a podcast host or an influencer than by your closest friends?
