22: How great sex can Improve Your Business with Michael Santonato and Jessica Li
Your Sex is impacting your ability to do business. Relationship Coach Michael Santonato and Holistic Health Coach for Entrepreneurs team up for the most sexual of conversations, sex. They share how having great sex: Boosts your daily level of happiness Builds confidence Makes you feel like you’re contributing as a partner Improves your health Relaxes the body ….And so many more benefits. All these benefits help you close more deals, and build your business.   Here’s some tips from the episode: Create a safe space When you are in a safe space with no judgement and fully accepting your partner, it gives you a chance to open up, experiment and be playful.  Be Present Be in your body, not your mind. Many people have to-do lists and agenda’s running through their mind during sex. Stop multitasking. I know women are great multi-taskers, but when it comes to sex, those to do lists and calorie counting should be shut down. Focus on your partner Give yourself to your partner. “He’s designed to give, and I’m designed to receive.” Physiologically speaking this is true, like a human puzzle, we fit so perfectly. If your body and mind align, this will improve the experience. Communicate You know what you like. Communicate this to your partner so that they can focus on the things that will make you have a great time. Visualization SECRET for Entrepreneurs During sex you are in peak physiological conditions. In this excited state, Michael says to visualize your goal for 10-20 seconds. From a Neuro Programming standpoint Michael shares how visualizing in this physical state can help attach great feelings and motivations to this goal.   Want to learn more?

21: Ramli John –Growth Hacking to Grow Your Business.
Today’s episode is about how to look at Growth Hacking. Ramli John, a successful growth hacker and lean startup specialist shares the basics of growth hacking.   Some Example Growth Hacks: ·         AirBnB: How did they grow to a Billion dollar company? One of their growth hacks was tapping in to Craigslist. AirBnB realized that their customers were looking for places on Craigslist and people on Craigslist were listing their places. They created a program that would automatically post their listings on Craigslist. This allowed them to piggy back traffic. This was so successful that when Craigslist figured this out they had to shut it down. Lesson: Look for places that your customers are spending lots of time at, and see how you can leverage this. ·         Drop Box: How did they get user to grow referrals? Drop Box gave an incentive of an extra 500MB of storage for every friend they referred to Drop Box. Rather than paying monetary incentive for referrals or getting users to pay, Drop Box saw the value of turning existing customers in to a referral engine.   How to get started with Growth Hacking?   1.    Start measuring stuff. By measuring data you will see how customers are interacting with your platform or business.but you already knew this. Even in ‘old-school’ businesses you’re already talking to clients, start paying attention to how they use your service.   2.    Ask yourself why people are doing what they are doing? Why are they doing something and equally why they are not doing something. See if you can find quick experiments to test your hypothesis.   3.    Ask the question “How can I get my customers to do _________” Good questions lead to good answers. Case and point.   4.    Test. Become the scientist. Run a simple test to see if your hypothesis is correct. Ramli mentions that when Edison was inventing the battery after 8000 ‘failed’ attempts he was asked “why do you continue?”. Edison’s answer was “I now know 8000 ways that don’t work.” The lesson:Focus on the growth hacking journey, not on the result. The journey will provide you with the result.   5.    Talk to engaged users and obsess about what makes them tick. Your most engaged users will provide you with the most insight. Focus on the. Understand who they are and why they are so motivated. After all, if you have only a small group of dedicated die-hard fans, they will become your tribe that will bring on all their friends. Seth Godin mentions that you only need 1000 of these diehards to cause massive change in this world.   Book recommendations: Don’t make me think written by teve Krug Suggested interview on Air BnB story Ramli’s Growth Hacking Webinar

20: Scott Oldford - Growing your Network One Dinner at a Time
Today’s episode is about building GREAT business relationships. This is not another episode about networking. Humans crave intimacy and great relationships. That’s what this episode delivers. Scott has hosted more than 60 “Limitless Dinners and Lunches” over the past year on a quest to build limitless relationships. A few weeks ago I received a mysterious email that intrigued me. The rest is history. Here’s the exact email I got inviting me to a Limitless Dinner.   Take advantage of this philosophy and you can supercharge your relationships when travel for business.  The dinner had 12 of us hosted at a great steak house and it was lead with 3 main questions: 1.       What are you working on 2.       What’s keeping you up at night? 3.       The last question is left as a random question for example; what’s been your most pivotal moment? Key takeaways: ·         Start with your network. There’s enough people in your immediate circle like 1st and 2nd degree connections to make an amazing dinner. ·         It’s NOT a Numbers Game. It’s about depth in relationships, otherwise you are just networking. ·         Get the right people in the room. If you get similar, like minded people, they will naturally connect.(Scott shares a story gone wrong) ·         Be the connector and facilitator.  You’re role is to make sure everyone has a chance to be involved in conversation. ·         Lunch vs. Dinner. o   Lunch works best with 4-6 people so that you can keep it to a 2hr length. o   Dinner works best with 4-8 people and needs up to 4 hours or more. Also note that dinners tend to give you more time to go deep, and the ability to go out afterwards.
