Full Episode
All you're doing, folks, is changing one thing. That is it, and adding one step. So if you want to change your finances in the future, if I could sit there and tell you that you can get all the money back for every car you ever buy, drive, and own, okay, that
If I can tell you you can get out of debt in a fraction of the time without working harder, longer, or taking on any risk, is that important?
If I could tell you that you could never pay interest to the banks ever again, and you could keep all that money, so just add up all your payments you make on credit cards, on car loans, on any loans you have, imagine writing those checks that you write to their bank, imagine writing them to yourself, what would your life look like? So if all of those things are things you would like, Okay.
Cause every one of those is a compelling thing that you would say. Absolutely. If I told you it took one change and one step to do that, every one of you would be interested.
This whole podcast game is so funny. Oh my gosh. So I started in 2011. Um, my first podcast I heard, I don't know if you remember this name, but a guy by the name of Chris Brogan, like marketing dude from way back in like the early blogging days, like 2007 to 2010.
And he, uh, you know, and I was, so at that, at that time I was, um, uh, working for my ex-wife's family's insurance agency and I sucked at selling like the worst salesman ever at the time. So, so I had to find a way to get business in cause I hated cold calling. So I turned to content marketing. Okay, so I find this guy and he starts talking about podcasting.
And I was like, well, shit, talking into a microphone sounds a hell of a lot more fun than writing all the time. So I'll try this. And dude, I grew my show back then to number 11 in the world. Now at the time, just to be clear, that was like around 52,000 downloads a month. So I have a screenshot from 2014, I did like 52,000, whatever, doesn't really matter.
But Ed Milet is two ahead of me and Gary Vaynerchuk is two behind me, for the world, for Apple at that time. Which is wild, right? So that happens, I'm having a great time, interviewing all these amazing people, and then I get this job offer to become the CMO of a tech company, The insurance industry is like my native industry.
And it's more money, you know, I'm poor kid from the fucking country in the North, right? So like, it's more money than I could have ever imagined at the time. And I say, sure. And they say, you can bring the podcast, all good. Three months in, I get the call into the office. Hey, man, this podcast thing, we know we told you you could do it, but some people are wondering if it's a distraction.
