Speaker:

Welcome back to another amazing episode of

Speaker:

excited to have in studio with me today.

Speaker:

lot more about Martin and what he does and

Speaker:

how the tools that he's getting ready to

Speaker:

unveil on the toolbox will definitely help

Speaker:

you be to be able to grow personally and

Speaker:

professionally. But before we bring Martin

Speaker:

onto the stage, let me take a moment to

Speaker:

thank our sponsors at Covenant Press.

Speaker:

Covenant Press is a faith based christian

Speaker:

Speaker:

Speaker:

clothing and accessories that allow us to

Speaker:

Speaker:

Speaker:

press.com. again, that's www. Dot Covenant

Speaker:

dash press.com. shop until you drop. But

Speaker:

Speaker:

quickly because they contain codes. When

Speaker:

applied at checkout, you can use them to

Speaker:

receive discounts and savings through your

Speaker:

purchases at Covenant Press. Hello,

Speaker:

Martin. How are you? Welcome to the

Speaker:

toolboxer. Laquita, so happy to see you

Speaker:

again. Yeah, yeah. Thank you so much for

Speaker:

having me. No problem, no problem. This

Speaker:

has been a long time coming. It has been,

Speaker:

it has been. But all good things come to

Speaker:

those who wait, right? Amen. That's it.

Speaker:

That's it. Thank you so much for your

Speaker:

grace. And look, look, guys, y'all know

Speaker:

the drill. Get something to write with and

Speaker:

something to write on because you don't

Speaker:

want to miss some of the tools and the

Speaker:

strategies that Martin is going to share.

Speaker:

And today's episode is going to be a

Speaker:

little different. It's going to be more of

Speaker:

Martin interviewing me instead of me

Speaker:

interviewing Martin. But it's going to be

Speaker:

fun. It's going to be fun. So y'all sit

Speaker:

back and relax. And Martin, I'm going to

Speaker:

hand. I'm going to do this in reverse. I'm

Speaker:

going to hand the interview keys over to

Speaker:

you and I'm ready. So cool. So cool. Well,

Speaker:

I'm excited to be here with you, as I

Speaker:

said, laquita. And yeah, I am going to

Speaker:

basically be interviewing you. But this is

Speaker:

so that which goes fits right in with the

Speaker:

name of your podcast about your toolbox.

Speaker:

What we're going to do is we're going to

Speaker:

help Laquita you build your toolbox. And

Speaker:

by doing so, we're going to show other

Speaker:

people how they can build their toolbox as

Speaker:

well. So you and I have spoken before,

Speaker:

before we got onto this call talking about

Speaker:

this program that I've put together, which

Speaker:

helps entrepreneurs, specifically coaches,

Speaker:

but all entrepreneurs, I can help them get

Speaker:

this seven figure take. Seven figures

Speaker:

within two years, guaranteed. And people

Speaker:

are like, what do you mean, guaranteed?

Speaker:

The way it works is I have this thing

Speaker:

called a risk reversal strategy, and the

Speaker:

strategy works out in a way so that I'm

Speaker:

showing you how you can make money, and

Speaker:

then as a result, it's a result based

Speaker:

coaching program. You pay me a little bit

Speaker:

in the beginning, but then it doesn't

Speaker:

start happening until you start to make

Speaker:

money. And when you start to make money,

Speaker:

we then turn around and say, okay, great.

Speaker:

How much you're making, great. Here's the

Speaker:

next payment. Okay, great. When you make

Speaker:

more, lot more, then you pay me some more.

Speaker:

And the whole time I'm going through

Speaker:

certain things to help you get there. It's

Speaker:

a partnership. That's why I call it a risk

Speaker:

reversal strategy. You know, Laquita, we

Speaker:

talked about this. I've been in these

Speaker:

programs, these coaching programs, where

Speaker:

they go, oh, it's done for you. It's done

Speaker:

with you. And what I found is really what

Speaker:

they were we're done to you programs. I've

Speaker:

been burned enough times to know when that

Speaker:

was. And it's on me just as much as it's

Speaker:

on them because I should have been better

Speaker:

at watching what I was jumping into.

Speaker:

Right, right. And that's fair. I mean, I

Speaker:

think a lot of us, a large majority of us

Speaker:

have done that where we have in our

Speaker:

excitement and in our desire to grow into,

Speaker:

you know, to push our brains or to set a

Speaker:

good foundation and start. We go out and

Speaker:

we look for the coaches, we look for the

Speaker:

subject matter experts where we believe

Speaker:

that we can get the knowledge and the

Speaker:

wisdom that's needed. And whether it's a

Speaker:

framework or step by step program,

Speaker:

whatever it is, that if we make those

Speaker:

investments into ourselves via these

Speaker:

programs, they'll help us get to where we

Speaker:

need to be. And I'm not saying that. Don't

Speaker:

do that. What I am saying is be more

Speaker:

mindful because there is no cookie cutter

Speaker:

solution to anything. Right. And with your

Speaker:

program, it's uniquely designed to fit the

Speaker:

individual, the business, the brand. And

Speaker:

that was the thing that I liked the most

Speaker:

about it when you. In the conversations

Speaker:

that we've had. Right. And now we're going

Speaker:

to take it to the next level. Right,

Speaker:

right. So, yeah, and that's a beautiful

Speaker:

thing. You know, you talked about it and I

Speaker:

am one of those victims of the shiny

Speaker:

object syndrome. Oh, I got to have that.

Speaker:

Oh, I got to have that. And I jump in

Speaker:

without really thinking it through. So I'm

Speaker:

glad you brought that up. It doesn't mean

Speaker:

that those programs don't work. Many of

Speaker:

them do work, but you got to go in with

Speaker:

your eyes open. Yes. When I was developing

Speaker:

this program, I said, I want to make it in

Speaker:

a way so that there's a partnership

Speaker:

involved here, so that we give you the

Speaker:

opportunity to move quickly without having

Speaker:

to feel like, wait a minute, what happens

Speaker:

next? I already know what could happen

Speaker:

next for you. And it's not one of these

Speaker:

where you go on your own and come back and

Speaker:

we'll tell us how you're doing. And if

Speaker:

you're not doing great, you're on your

Speaker:

own. No, no. I promise two things. When I

Speaker:

people get into my programs, there's two

Speaker:

guarantees. One, there will be chaos. So

Speaker:

get ready. And chaos is usually a good

Speaker:

thing at the end of the day because you

Speaker:

learn from chaos. And number two, and this

Speaker:

is really the important one, I don't give

Speaker:

up on you. And if you don't give up on

Speaker:

you, and even when you do get ready for me

Speaker:

to be there saying, hello, let's get

Speaker:

going. So let's jump into this. So one of

Speaker:

the things, so what we're going to do here

Speaker:

for the audience to see, and I'm going to

Speaker:

share my screen in a minute, what I've

Speaker:

done is I've created programs in AI, in

Speaker:

chat GPT, which are proprietary programs,

Speaker:

and each one of them. So it's not like

Speaker:

someone could sign on to chat GPT and find

Speaker:

them on their own. Okay? But each one of

Speaker:

them helps to define the next step in a

Speaker:

roadmap to help my clients get to the

Speaker:

point where they're ready to go out there

Speaker:

and test what they're doing, and we even

Speaker:

show them how to test it in a way where

Speaker:

they're not spending money. And if they

Speaker:

are, they're spending very little, but

Speaker:

most of the times it's without spending

Speaker:

any money. So the first thing, what we're

Speaker:

going to do is, one of the first step

Speaker:

anybody's got to know is who is their

Speaker:

right fit client? Or is, you know, the

Speaker:

wording out there like people like to use

Speaker:

is, what's your, who's your avatar? Yeah,

Speaker:

right. That's the, that's, that, that's

Speaker:

the buzzword people like. So I like right

Speaker:

for client, and then for me, there's a

Speaker:

difference between a right fit client and

Speaker:

a right fit audience. The right fit

Speaker:

audience is, let's say, just as an

Speaker:

example, healthcare workers, health care

Speaker:

professionals. Right. But to dial down

Speaker:

who's your right fit client? Maybe it's a

Speaker:

chiropractor. He's a healthcare

Speaker:

professional. Yes, he is. But getting

Speaker:

diaper into it, he's a chiropractor, makes

Speaker:

him a right fit client. And you can even

Speaker:

get even a little more specific. How about

Speaker:

left handed chiropractors? Of course.

Speaker:

We're just joking here. So with you, what

Speaker:

I'd like to do is start by asking you some

Speaker:

questions so I can put it into the. Into

Speaker:

the AI and go there. So the first one is

Speaker:

help me define your ideal client. All

Speaker:

right. So my ideal client is a. She's a

Speaker:

woman between the ages of 35 and 45. She.

Speaker:

35 to 45. Yep. She is also a military

Speaker:

spouse. Military or veteran spouse. Okay.

Speaker:

See, this is what I love. When you get

Speaker:

specific like that, it helps all along.

Speaker:

Military or veteran spouse. Yep. And she

Speaker:

has a current. I guess we call it side

Speaker:

hustle. Or she's wanting to become an

Speaker:

entrepreneur. To become an entrepreneur.

Speaker:

And I'm curious, is it where they want the

Speaker:

side hustle to become a business? Yes.

Speaker:

Right. Because people think, you know, if

Speaker:

you treat a side hustle as a side hustle,

Speaker:

it's a hobby, and you'll never make a lot

Speaker:

of money. Right, right. To become a bona

Speaker:

fide business. Okay. Uh, what else can we

Speaker:

put in there? Are they, you know, I know

Speaker:

you. Faith is very big for you. Is it a

Speaker:

faith base that you're looking for for the

Speaker:

women? So, yes, being a Christian is a

Speaker:

bonus. It's not a deal breaker, but it's

Speaker:

definitely a bonus if the person is not a

Speaker:

Christian. As long as they don't have a

Speaker:

problem with my Christianity, I won't have

Speaker:

a problem with them not being. Well, let's

Speaker:

be all honest here. I have no problem with

Speaker:

you being a Christian as long as you don't

Speaker:

have any problem with me being jewish. We

Speaker:

are fantastic. We both love the same God

Speaker:

right. At the end of the day. Right,

Speaker:

right. Fantastic. So, okay, fantastic. So

Speaker:

I'm just going to put in bonus. Bonus. If

Speaker:

they're christian, as faith based. Yes.

Speaker:

Okay. Anything else we want to put in

Speaker:

there? Is that what kind? What do they. Do

Speaker:

they have a specific towards their

Speaker:

business? Towards what type of business?

Speaker:

Or do we want to just leave it at that and

Speaker:

let. Let the see what we come up with. The

Speaker:

more specific will probably be, um, two

Speaker:

things. Um, and the. The primary one is

Speaker:

she's. She's at a space where she's honing

Speaker:

in on who she is. Like, okay, not all of

Speaker:

the identity things. Like, I'm not talking

Speaker:

about sexual identity or anything like

Speaker:

that. Yeah, she's honing in on. Okay. I've

Speaker:

lived this life so far, and I've been a

Speaker:

wife, I've been a mom. You know, I've been

Speaker:

these things. But now I want to know what

Speaker:

makes me tick and why am I here and, you

Speaker:

know, how does this relate to my business?

Speaker:

Beyond being a wife and a mother? Yeah.

Speaker:

Beyond being a wife and a mother. She's

Speaker:

defining who she is as an individual.

Speaker:

Mother defining who she is. She is as an

Speaker:

individual. Okay. And what's the second

Speaker:

thing? And the second thing is, you know,

Speaker:

that person is getting clarity in that

Speaker:

area. And so now they're looking at their

Speaker:

entrepreneurial journey as soon as do.

Speaker:

Okay, is that what is the thing that I've

Speaker:

been called to do in this life that I'm

Speaker:

leaving? Fantastic. What's their calling?

Speaker:

Yes. Okay, fantastic. So let me read back

Speaker:

what we have here, see if we left anything

Speaker:

out. Help me define Laquita Manley's ideal

Speaker:

client. Woman, 35 to 45, military or

Speaker:

veteran spouse, has current high side

Speaker:

hustle or wants to become an entrepreneur

Speaker:

to become an bona fide business bonus if

Speaker:

they're christian faith based. She's at a

Speaker:

space honing on who she is. Who she is.

Speaker:

It's a. I left out the s and she. So it

Speaker:

says who he is. Beyond wife and mother.

Speaker:

Defining who she is as an individual

Speaker:

looking at entrepreneurial journey of

Speaker:

what's their calling. Yes. All right.

Speaker:

Anything we left out there? Nope. That's

Speaker:

about it. All right, so let's share the

Speaker:

screen. Okay, share screen. Now let me

Speaker:

see. All right, cool. It got exactly what

Speaker:

I was looking for. So can you see that

Speaker:

screen? Yep. I have that great stage right

Speaker:

there. Beautiful. So now I'm going to hit

Speaker:

enter and let's see what it comes up with.

Speaker:

Let's work together to define Laquita

Speaker:

Manly's ideal profile. We'll start by

Speaker:

understanding the key aspects such as

Speaker:

demographics. Psychographics needs pain

Speaker:

points of the ideal client. Right. So it

Speaker:

already. We gave it some of the

Speaker:

demographics already. Okay. 35 to 45,

Speaker:

married to a military or veteran spouse,

Speaker:

current side hustle or aspiring

Speaker:

entrepreneur. Religion, christian faith

Speaker:

based bonus, but not mandatory location.

Speaker:

Likely to be in the US, especially in

Speaker:

areas with significant military presence.

Speaker:

Makes sense, right? Yep. Psychographics

Speaker:

identity at a pivotal point in our life.

Speaker:

Seeking to define herself beyond the walls

Speaker:

of wife and mother aspirations. Eager to

Speaker:

discover and pursue her calling. Driven by

Speaker:

a sense of purpose, values strong faith

Speaker:

and spirituality. Values integrity,

Speaker:

service and personal growth. Interested in

Speaker:

entrepreneurship, personal development and

Speaker:

faith based community activities. How's

Speaker:

everything so far? Sounds good. All right.

Speaker:

Challenges balancing family

Speaker:

responsibilities with personal ambitions.

Speaker:

Overcoming the uncertainty of

Speaker:

transitioning from a side hustle to a full

Speaker:

fledged business. That sounds good. Sounds

Speaker:

good. Some of their needs would be

Speaker:

guidance on how to transition a side

Speaker:

hustle into a sustainable business.

Speaker:

Clarity on personal identity and purpose

Speaker:

beyond familial roles. Support in

Speaker:

integrating faith and spirituality in

Speaker:

their business. If that's something that

Speaker:

they want to do. Yes. Strategies for

Speaker:

effective time managing and work life

Speaker:

balance mentorship and community support

Speaker:

from like minded individuals. How's that

Speaker:

sound so far? Sounds good. Okay, pain

Speaker:

points. Feeling of being overshadowed by

Speaker:

the military lifestyle and spouse's

Speaker:

career. Lack of clarity. Sorry, that's

Speaker:

pinpoint accuracy right there. Fantastic.

Speaker:

Lack of clarity on how to start a grower

Speaker:

business. Limited network and resources

Speaker:

specific to military spouse entrepreneurs.

Speaker:

Struggles with self doubt and confidence

Speaker:

and entrepreneurial abilities. Difficulty

Speaker:

in finding a supportive community that

Speaker:

shares similar values and experiences.

Speaker:

Now, of course, it could be all these, it

Speaker:

could be some of these. But the idea is,

Speaker:

it gives you a great idea. Yes. Right. So

Speaker:

here now it even gave us somebody Sarah

Speaker:

Johnson is a 40 year old married woman

Speaker:

living in Virginia, close to a large

Speaker:

military base where her husband is

Speaker:

stationed. She's a mother of two teenagers

Speaker:

and spent the last 15 years primarily

Speaker:

focused on her family and supporting her

Speaker:

husband's military career. Recently, Sarah

Speaker:

started a handmade craft business as a

Speaker:

side hustle, selling her products at a

Speaker:

local markets and online. She's at a

Speaker:

crossroads, feeling strong desire to

Speaker:

develop her side hustle to a full fledged

Speaker:

business. She's motivated by a faith and

Speaker:

wants her business to reflect her

Speaker:

christian values. However, she feels

Speaker:

uncertain about her business skills and

Speaker:

struggles with balancing her time between

Speaker:

her family and entrepreneurial

Speaker:

aspirations. Goals to establish her

Speaker:

handmade craft business as a recognized

Speaker:

and sustainable brand to gain clarity on

Speaker:

her personal identity and entrepreneurial

Speaker:

calling to integrate her faith into her

Speaker:

business model and practices to build a

Speaker:

supportive network of like minded women

Speaker:

who understand her unique challenges.

Speaker:

How's it sound so far? Sounds good. Okay,

Speaker:

challenges overcoming the self doubt and

Speaker:

gaining confidence in her business acumen

Speaker:

learning the necessary skills for business

Speaker:

growth and development managing her time

Speaker:

effectively to juggle family

Speaker:

responsibilities and demands finding a

Speaker:

community that supports a faith based

Speaker:

approach to entrepreneur and then it gives

Speaker:

actionable stuff. Content creation

Speaker:

workshops, mentorship programs, community

Speaker:

building resources, an example, so on and

Speaker:

so forth. So how does this look so far?

Speaker:

Looks real good. Is there anything in here

Speaker:

that you would want to take out or you're

Speaker:

good with where it is and where it's going

Speaker:

to take us? I'm pretty much good with that

Speaker:

framework and where it's going to take.

Speaker:

Fantastic. So what I'm going to do now is

Speaker:

I'm going to take this information, copy

Speaker:

it. Right. All that's in here up to here.

Speaker:

Oh, we don't actually necessarily have to

Speaker:

go as far as bringing in the detailed

Speaker:

client Persona, just with this part here.

Speaker:

Okay, copy. Now we're going to go into the

Speaker:

next, the next tab, which is what outcomes

Speaker:

your clients need for your, that you want

Speaker:

to solve for your clients. Okay. Okay. So

Speaker:

we're going to say here's my right fit

Speaker:

client. Client comma, can you give me

Speaker:

outcomes? Or here's Lakita's right fit

Speaker:

line. Let me fix that. Laquitus. Sorry, I

Speaker:

do that all the time. I say your name

Speaker:

wrong. Right fit client. Can you give me

Speaker:

outcomes for her clients? And I'll fix the

Speaker:

spelling before I go. No worries, no

Speaker:

worries. Some words I always spell wrong,

Speaker:

like clients. So now we've taken what

Speaker:

we've gotten the first time. Okay. Now

Speaker:

we're putting it back in there and it's

Speaker:

thinking it through and let's see what it

Speaker:

comes up with. Given Laquita's ideal

Speaker:

client profile, here are the significant

Speaker:

outcomes she can provide for her clients.

Speaker:

Okay, where we take this and we say, oops,

Speaker:

let me share the next screen. It didn't

Speaker:

share. Let me stop presenting so that this

Speaker:

way I can present again with the right

Speaker:

screen. Okay, wrong one. Okay, present.

Speaker:

This is the first time I'm using the

Speaker:

presenting on here. So it's a little

Speaker:

different than the zoom. Yeah, yeah,

Speaker:

that's what I see now. That's why I said,

Speaker:

oh, it's not showing the right screen.

Speaker:

There we go. Okay, fantastic. So we put in

Speaker:

all this information that we had from the

Speaker:

first one. Okay. Now here, given Laquita's

Speaker:

ideal client, here are the significant

Speaker:

outcomes she can provide for her client.

Speaker:

One, personal identity and purpose.

Speaker:

Clarity. Outcome. Client gains a deep

Speaker:

understanding of their unique identity and

Speaker:

purpose beyond their roles as wives and

Speaker:

mothers. Value this clarity helps clients

Speaker:

feel more confident and fulfilled,

Speaker:

fostering a stronger sense of self worth

Speaker:

and direction in their lives. Number two,

Speaker:

successful transition to sustainable

Speaker:

entrepreneurship. The outcome is clients

Speaker:

successfully transition their side hustles

Speaker:

into a sustainable and thriving business.

Speaker:

And the value is this transition provides

Speaker:

financial independence and fulfillment of

Speaker:

pursuing passion driven career. How are

Speaker:

those so far? That's good. All right.

Speaker:

Faith integration and business practices.

Speaker:

The outcome client learns to effectively

Speaker:

integrate their faith and spirituality

Speaker:

into their business practice. If you have

Speaker:

somebody that doesn't want that, we take

Speaker:

that out. Take that out. Yeah, right. The

Speaker:

value is this alignment between personal

Speaker:

values and professional activities creates

Speaker:

a sense of harmony and purpose in their

Speaker:

work life and they work. Effective time

Speaker:

management and work life balance outcome.

Speaker:

The client develops strategies for

Speaker:

effective time management, achieving a

Speaker:

healthy work life balance and the value is

Speaker:

improved balance reduces stress, enhances

Speaker:

predict productivity, ensures quality time

Speaker:

with family, contributing to overall well

Speaker:

being, increased confidence on overcoming

Speaker:

self doubt, access to a supportive

Speaker:

community network. Look how many there

Speaker:

are. Strategic business growth and

Speaker:

development, enhanced service and

Speaker:

integrity in business. Balancing family

Speaker:

and business relationships,

Speaker:

responsibilities, resourcefulness and

Speaker:

adaptability. These. So each one of them

Speaker:

has the outcomes. But these outcomes will

Speaker:

not only address Laquitas clients

Speaker:

immediate needs and pain points, but also

Speaker:

empower them to achieve long term success

Speaker:

and fulfillment in both their personal and

Speaker:

professional lives. How's that look? That

Speaker:

looks good. All right, cool. That's very

Speaker:

detailed. Right. So now what we're going

Speaker:

to do is one of the things that's

Speaker:

important is being able to, when somebody

Speaker:

asks you, what do you do? Say it in a way

Speaker:

that's like an elevator speech, but

Speaker:

delivers the message in 17 to 30 seconds,

Speaker:

right? Yes. So that you qualify and

Speaker:

disqualify. Let me just make sure I copy

Speaker:

this. So as your stop screen share. So as

Speaker:

you're doing this, the next part is we're

Speaker:

going to come up with what's called an

Speaker:

intro marshal. This woman, Jane M. Powers

Speaker:

created it and we've created, been able to

Speaker:

take it, put it into chat and say, create

Speaker:

an intro marshal for Laquita based on what

Speaker:

we've just come up with. Okay. Right. So

Speaker:

I'll fill it in, I'll put into it your

Speaker:

right fit client, which it already knows,

Speaker:

and this outcomes and say, can you create

Speaker:

something? And the beauty about it is that

Speaker:

it's going to qualify the people because

Speaker:

right away they'll probably say something.

Speaker:

I help military wives, military spouses,

Speaker:

they're like, okay, if I'm not a military

Speaker:

spouse, then I'm not a right fit for my

Speaker:

fill equita. Yeah, right. Qualify and

Speaker:

disqualify. So now we'll go to, I'll

Speaker:

first, before we get there, here, I'm

Speaker:

going to type it in and I'll bring you in.

Speaker:

Here is quitas. If I can spell your name

Speaker:

right now it comes. It's super amazing at

Speaker:

the level of detail and accuracy that

Speaker:

you're able to get, isn't it? Yeah. Like,

Speaker:

the very specific questions in the

Speaker:

beginning was necessary, and the part of

Speaker:

the client is you've got to have that work

Speaker:

ready. Like, you've got. You need to have.

Speaker:

Be able to do that work to know the

Speaker:

answers to these questions. And if you

Speaker:

don't, that's okay. But. Okay, so now what

Speaker:

is the work we need to do? You know, like,

Speaker:

now this is what I need to do in order to

Speaker:

be effective in. No matter, one, what kind

Speaker:

of program that I'm using, but two, to get

Speaker:

the most effectiveness out of Martin's

Speaker:

program. Exactly. Which I'm going to show

Speaker:

you where that all fits in in a minute.

Speaker:

When we go through this, please create a.

Speaker:

And intro Marshall. Okay, so now I'm going

Speaker:

to present again, share my screen. So many

Speaker:

steps to doing it, but now that I get it,

Speaker:

it'll go faster. There we go. As I

Speaker:

discussed, the intromercial will tell me,

Speaker:

you know, we'll come up with something. So

Speaker:

I put in your outcomes and I put in your.

Speaker:

Your right fit client, and I said, please

Speaker:

create an intro marshal. Let's see what it

Speaker:

comes up with. Okay. It's watching

Speaker:

everything, it's thinking about

Speaker:

everything. And here we go. So this is, if

Speaker:

you were saying it from a frame, from a.

Speaker:

From a stage, or let's say somebody asked

Speaker:

you, what do you do? Okay. Military spouse

Speaker:

entrepreneurs hire me to gain clarity on

Speaker:

their personal identity and purpose beyond

Speaker:

their roles as wives and mothers, because

Speaker:

most people, most feel overshadowed by the

Speaker:

military lifestyle and lack the confidence

Speaker:

to transition their side hustle into a

Speaker:

thriving business. How does that sound so

Speaker:

far? Sounds good. Right? So I help them to

Speaker:

discover their unique identity and

Speaker:

purpose, fostering confidence and

Speaker:

fulfillment, successfully transition their

Speaker:

high side hustle into a sustainable

Speaker:

business, achieving financial

Speaker:

independence, integrate their faith into

Speaker:

business practices, creating harmony and

Speaker:

purpose in their work. Again, if they want

Speaker:

to be faith based. But there it is. Bottom

Speaker:

line, you will gain clarity and confidence

Speaker:

to building a thriving business aligned

Speaker:

with your values and aspirations. How's

Speaker:

that sound so far? That sounds good.

Speaker:

Right? So now what we can do with this is

Speaker:

we can say, you know what, like, for

Speaker:

example, my mind says at the end of it,

Speaker:

bottom line, I help you build a sustain.

Speaker:

I'm doing it from memory. I help you build

Speaker:

a seven figure business, guaranteed within

Speaker:

two years or less. So if that's something

Speaker:

you wanted to add, say, I want to help you

Speaker:

build a six figure income. Boom, boom,

Speaker:

boom. Now you have even more of a tangible

Speaker:

goal for them. And they go, oh, this woman

Speaker:

gets me. Yeah. So is that something you'd

Speaker:

want to add, that you can help them get to

Speaker:

a certain figure within a certain time?

Speaker:

No, I don't want to. Okay. At least not at

Speaker:

that stage. Not at this stage. Yeah. All

Speaker:

right, good. It's all good. So now what

Speaker:

we'll do is I'm going to copy what we've

Speaker:

put in there. And this is the, this is the

Speaker:

final part. It will build a blueprint as

Speaker:

to what your business should look like to

Speaker:

get some people from point a, B, C, D, e

Speaker:

through the, through the process. Okay.

Speaker:

Okay, so I'm going to copy what we put

Speaker:

into here, take this out that we don't

Speaker:

need. You don't see what I'm doing, but

Speaker:

you get it. And now I'm going to take your

Speaker:

intro. Marshal. Copy. Here's her intro.

Speaker:

Marshall. Control V, please create a

Speaker:

blueprint. So now let me share my screen.

Speaker:

Okay, let's see what we got. Right, so I'm

Speaker:

going to hit enter now. So I put in all

Speaker:

that previous information because the more

Speaker:

we, the better prompts we give to our. And

Speaker:

this is not just for my program. This is

Speaker:

for anything. Jack, GPT, AI. The more

Speaker:

prompts you give it, the better the

Speaker:

answers will be. Yeah, yeah. There we go.

Speaker:

Okay. Okay. Laquita manly's high ticket

Speaker:

blueprint program. Blueprint. Okay, finish

Speaker:

first. Stage one we call ignite. Finish

Speaker:

line, clients gain. Okay, you know what?

Speaker:

Before I do this, I'm going to ask it.

Speaker:

Please give a description. I keep on

Speaker:

telling it to fix this and it doesn't

Speaker:

listen to me. I don't know why. I got a

Speaker:

find somebody who knows how to do chat GTB

Speaker:

better than me, which is a lot of people.

Speaker:

A description for each stage before finish

Speaker:

lines and price. And we'll fix the word

Speaker:

description even though it'll know what

Speaker:

I'm talking about. Okay, so now it'll give

Speaker:

a little more depth than just the final of

Speaker:

each one. So this stage about developing

Speaker:

the roadmap for your journey. Clients will

Speaker:

delve into self discovery sessions to

Speaker:

glean clarity on their unique identity and

Speaker:

purpose beyond their roles as wives and

Speaker:

mothers. By the end of this stage, they

Speaker:

will have a solid understanding of who

Speaker:

they are and what they stand for, laying a

Speaker:

strong foundation for, uh, for

Speaker:

entrepreneurial journey. How's that sound?

Speaker:

That sounds good. Okay. The finish line is

Speaker:

the clients gain a deep understanding of

Speaker:

their unique identity and purpose beyond

Speaker:

their roles of wife and of wife and

Speaker:

mother. Right. And a newfound con. The

Speaker:

prize is a newfound confidence and

Speaker:

fulfillment, fostering stronger self worth

Speaker:

and direction in their lives. Okay, stage

Speaker:

two is the description is in this stage,

Speaker:

clients will take actionable steps towards

Speaker:

achieving a quick win by transitioning

Speaker:

their side hustle into a thriving

Speaker:

business. With target extracting and

Speaker:

focus, they'll generate at least $50,000

Speaker:

in sales. These are numbers that could

Speaker:

change, but it's, it's what it's putting

Speaker:

in there for now. Yes. Right. The stage is

Speaker:

about proving to themselves that their

Speaker:

business can ideas can be successful and

Speaker:

profitable. The finish line client

Speaker:

successfully transitioned their side

Speaker:

hustle into a sustainable, thriving

Speaker:

business, generating at least 50,000 in

Speaker:

sales. And the prize is financial

Speaker:

independence and the fulfillment of

Speaker:

pursuing passion driven career. Stage

Speaker:

three is catapult. The description this

Speaker:

stage focuses on identifying implementing

Speaker:

systems that will support business growth.

Speaker:

Clients will learn to integrate their

Speaker:

faith into their business practice if

Speaker:

that's what they want to do, manage their

Speaker:

time effectively and maintain a healthy

Speaker:

work life balance. By setting up these

Speaker:

systems, they prepare their business for

Speaker:

scalability, which is such an important

Speaker:

word that so many people don't know really

Speaker:

what scalable means, right? Which they'll

Speaker:

get into in the next stage, I think so.

Speaker:

Finish line clients develop effective

Speaker:

systems for business growth, including

Speaker:

strategies for faith integration, time

Speaker:

management, work life balance prize, a

Speaker:

harmonious alignment between personal

Speaker:

values and professional activities leading

Speaker:

to reduced stress, enhanced productivity

Speaker:

and quality. Family time. Okay, how we

Speaker:

doing so far? Doing real good. All right,

Speaker:

so stage four, empower at this stage,

Speaker:

clients will identify and connect with

Speaker:

people and team needed to run their

Speaker:

business systems. That's what scalability

Speaker:

is about. They'll also be admitted into a

Speaker:

high level mastermind group with their

Speaker:

peers for continued support. This stage is

Speaker:

about building a supportive community,

Speaker:

gaining access to tailoring strategies and

Speaker:

upholding standards of service and

Speaker:

integrity. The finish line clients build a

Speaker:

supportive community network and network,

Speaker:

gain access to tailored strategies for

Speaker:

military spouse entrepreneurs and enhanced

Speaker:

service integrated integrity in their

Speaker:

business. The prize encouragement,

Speaker:

resources, collaboration, opportunity and

Speaker:

trusted reputation that ensures long term

Speaker:

success. So stage five is scale

Speaker:

description the final stage is involved

Speaker:

rinsing and repeating the strategies that

Speaker:

have worked while continuing continually

Speaker:

balancing family responsibilities and

Speaker:

entrepreneurial ambitions. Clients will

Speaker:

focus on maintaining business growth and

Speaker:

adaptability despite the challenges of

Speaker:

military life. This stage is about

Speaker:

achieving the attended results of the

Speaker:

program and creating a lasting impact. The

Speaker:

clients continually balance family

Speaker:

responsibilities with the entrepreneurial

Speaker:

ambitions, maintaining business growth and

Speaker:

adaptability despite the challenges of

Speaker:

military life. And the prize? More

Speaker:

fulfilling life. Combining professional

Speaker:

goals with family commitments and

Speaker:

resilience in facing unexpected

Speaker:

challenges. And then what it does here, it

Speaker:

details the blueprint stages, roadmap

Speaker:

identity discovery session purpose

Speaker:

clarification, confidence building

Speaker:

activities, side hustle assessment for the

Speaker:

unleash, taking the roadmap building

Speaker:

business planning strategy, sales

Speaker:

strategies, faith integration for

Speaker:

catapult, time management technique

Speaker:

system. How great is this? This is

Speaker:

amazing. This is amazing. Right, right.

Speaker:

And then, look, it keeps going. Empower,

Speaker:

scale, each one of them. How to implement

Speaker:

the guidelines, encouragement and support.

Speaker:

And it just goes on and on. Oh, yeah. This

Speaker:

is wonderful. All right. Fantastic.

Speaker:

Wonderful. Right. So here's where. So, so

Speaker:

this is something that I sometimes do with

Speaker:

people who have heard a little bit about

Speaker:

my program, but they're not 100% sure,

Speaker:

blah, blah, blah. I offer this to them, I

Speaker:

go, okay, for $2,500, I'll give you

Speaker:

clarity, blueprint all this stuff. Right?

Speaker:

And at the end of the day, we go on, I did

Speaker:

it for you for free, because this is now

Speaker:

we're showing it to the audience. We're

Speaker:

showing them what we can do. Yes. But

Speaker:

really, what I'd love is for people to

Speaker:

come to the workshop and hear all about

Speaker:

the whole process that I do to get you to

Speaker:

where you are. But here's what happens

Speaker:

next. Okay? Right. Now you have all this

Speaker:

information. Okay. Now, if you're a client

Speaker:

of mine, right, an idea, we show you then

Speaker:

how to validate your program without

Speaker:

spending money or very little money. Okay?

Speaker:

Right. How great would it be instead of

Speaker:

having to go out there and do market

Speaker:

research and you, you know, split testing

Speaker:

and all that other thing. Yes. If we could

Speaker:

get it down and say, I want to talk to

Speaker:

these people who are my right fit client,

Speaker:

and ask them that I'm going to write an

Speaker:

article, okay, about what it's like to be

Speaker:

a military spouse who has a side hustle or

Speaker:

an entrepreneurial spirit and wants to do

Speaker:

something with it. And I'm going to say

Speaker:

I'll reach out to them in different ways,

Speaker:

like LinkedIn, maybe some military spouse

Speaker:

groups that are on Facebook, so on and so

Speaker:

forth. Right, right. And you have a

Speaker:

conversation with them, 1520 minutes. And

Speaker:

you say to them, hi, Laquita. Thank you

Speaker:

for having this call with me. And we show

Speaker:

you how to write the emails and the text

Speaker:

messages or whatever is you're going to

Speaker:

do. And you add, you say, this is not a

Speaker:

sales call. I'm not selling you anything

Speaker:

here. And you're not. Right. What I'd like

Speaker:

to do is I'm putting a program together

Speaker:

and I'm writing an article which you will.

Speaker:

You'll write an article that you might put

Speaker:

out on LinkedIn or something. And if so,

Speaker:

I'll even, you know, mention you in the

Speaker:

article if you'd like me to. And then you

Speaker:

go through your program quickly, five to

Speaker:

ten minutes, and then you ask him a series

Speaker:

of questions. In those questions, there

Speaker:

are three questions keyed to see if what

Speaker:

you're doing has merit. And if they answer

Speaker:

yes to two or three of these questions,

Speaker:

then you know you have a valid program.

Speaker:

And when you get a certain amount of

Speaker:

these, then you go, okay, I've got

Speaker:

something here. And then we show you how

Speaker:

to build it from there. So instead of,

Speaker:

well, you're actually doing all of the

Speaker:

things, the market research, all of that

Speaker:

good stuff, but you're doing it from a,

Speaker:

from a good. Starting. Instead of starting

Speaker:

at zero, you're starting at like 50,

Speaker:

right? Running at like 50, because you got

Speaker:

a clear set of answers from the exercise

Speaker:

that we just, we just did. You got those

Speaker:

clear set of answers. So when you are,

Speaker:

then you're able to create that pool of

Speaker:

people from your own social media and

Speaker:

email. You're able to generate it for

Speaker:

significantly. Less, cost significantly

Speaker:

less. And here's the beauty. Less. Yes,

Speaker:

here's the beauty. The last question I'll

Speaker:

ask them, or you'll ask them, is, when I

Speaker:

launch this program, would you like me to

Speaker:

reach out to you and see if you'd like to

Speaker:

get involved? Okay. Now if they say yes to

Speaker:

that, you go, great. I'm not going to sell

Speaker:

you now, but we can set up a follow up

Speaker:

call to have a strategy session, which you

Speaker:

and I did. Right. And we go through the

Speaker:

little steps and we show them what the

Speaker:

depth of it is, the depth of the program,

Speaker:

and they get it, a better understanding.

Speaker:

And they go, okay, now I can make a

Speaker:

informed decision. And you're holding to

Speaker:

your integrity by not selling them on the

Speaker:

call. Okay, on the first call. Yes, yes.

Speaker:

You're just informing them. Exactly. And

Speaker:

more importantly, one of the questions is,

Speaker:

please give me feedback. Most of the

Speaker:

questions are yes and no, but at the end

Speaker:

of it, you go, okay, now that I've gone

Speaker:

through this, I'd like some feedback

Speaker:

because, you know what I'm writing is not

Speaker:

in stone. Okay. Okay. Right. Because if

Speaker:

they come back and I, maybe you've gone

Speaker:

through a bunch of people and you're not

Speaker:

validated, you come back to us and we say,

Speaker:

why are we not being able to validate you.

Speaker:

Maybe we have to change some things in

Speaker:

here, move things around, and then send

Speaker:

you out again. Right. How motivated am I

Speaker:

to get you to each level? Because my money

Speaker:

comes from your money. Okay. You're highly

Speaker:

motivated. And how motivated are you to

Speaker:

get there? Extremely highly motivated.

Speaker:

Wow. Look, this is, this is amazing. This

Speaker:

is amazing. These are some amazing tools

Speaker:

that you have, and it gives really great

Speaker:

value to your, to your clients. And you

Speaker:

were saying that, you know, before we got

Speaker:

started, that you have these workshops

Speaker:

that, you know, let's talk, talk to us

Speaker:

about those workshops. Absolutely. So what

Speaker:

I've put together is a philanthropic

Speaker:

workshop. Mm hmm. What do I mean by

Speaker:

philanthropic? You know what, a lot of

Speaker:

people are out there doing these webinars

Speaker:

slash workshops for, like, 45 minutes, and

Speaker:

they get you to come, and they might be

Speaker:

free or it might be to pay, and at the end

Speaker:

of it, they go, okay, we've given you a

Speaker:

little bit of information here, and if you

Speaker:

want more, click on this link and pay 9000

Speaker:

or $997, whatever it is. So what I've done

Speaker:

is I've said, you know what? People don't

Speaker:

come to free workshops because you know

Speaker:

what they pay when they pay attention.

Speaker:

Yes. Or they pay attention when they pay,

Speaker:

as it were. So I said, instead, why don't

Speaker:

I offer a three to four hour workshop

Speaker:

that's $27, and the money goes to a

Speaker:

charity. So I'm not making any money. So

Speaker:

that's the Phil, that's the first part of

Speaker:

the film philanthropy. Okay? Right. And

Speaker:

I've picked an organization that means

Speaker:

something to me. Let's say you get into my

Speaker:

business, I help you build in my business,

Speaker:

in my business model, I help you build

Speaker:

your own workshop. Okay. I done for you.

Speaker:

This is literally done for you workshop,

Speaker:

where you do the same thing, and you come

Speaker:

up with a charity that means something for

Speaker:

you, which won't be very hard for you.

Speaker:

I've got a gift of life because I was able

Speaker:

to donate my stem cells and save

Speaker:

somebody's life. Right. And this

Speaker:

organization paid for everything for that

Speaker:

person to become, to stay alive. They

Speaker:

thrive on donations. Yes. So the money

Speaker:

goes there. So the other part of why it's

Speaker:

philanthropic is by the end of the three

Speaker:

to 4 hours, whoever stays till the end

Speaker:

will get the entire recording to watch.

Speaker:

And if they want, they can do it on their

Speaker:

own without me. Will they get there

Speaker:

quickly? Probably not, but they could. And

Speaker:

if they leave me a nice review on, on

Speaker:

LinkedIn, I'll give them also my, uh, my

Speaker:

slide deck so they can have everything of

Speaker:

the slides and say, okay, great, I can do

Speaker:

it on my own. And good luck. I wish you

Speaker:

the best. Right. But if you want to do it

Speaker:

faster, you could come in with me and

Speaker:

we'll help you get there faster. I

Speaker:

guarantee seven figures within two years

Speaker:

or less. I love it. I love it. I like you

Speaker:

have the different levels for where people

Speaker:

are either in their mindset or their

Speaker:

budget. But that guarantee, like, it

Speaker:

totally blew my mind, because I'm

Speaker:

thinking. Because when I heard you say it,

Speaker:

I was like, how in the world can he have

Speaker:

that type of guarantee? Like, what is

Speaker:

happening here? And when you explained it

Speaker:

to me, I was, oh, yeah. And I go into it

Speaker:

in depth on the workshop. Right, right.

Speaker:

Like, you're. You are as invested as the

Speaker:

client in their success, because their

Speaker:

success, not only is it bringing you

Speaker:

testimonials and all of those great

Speaker:

things, but that's also where you earn

Speaker:

your income, so you're invested for really

Speaker:

good reasons. Right. I want to build

Speaker:

raving fans. Yes. Right. Yeah. I want to

Speaker:

tell you a funny story. When I started to

Speaker:

validate my program, because what you're

Speaker:

doing, you're basically duplicating what I

Speaker:

did. Yeah. So when I started to validate

Speaker:

my program, I. Mine was for coaches. Mm

Speaker:

hmm. And I reached out to an old coach of

Speaker:

mine, and he said, martin, I have to tell

Speaker:

you something. Last week, I was in a

Speaker:

Facebook group, and he said, somebody

Speaker:

wrote in the group, you ever noticed

Speaker:

coaches never have skin in the game? He

Speaker:

says, martin, you just changed the rules.

Speaker:

Yeah. You having skin in the game. Mmm. I

Speaker:

was like, wow. Yeah. Thank you so much.

Speaker:

What a great line that is. Skin in the

Speaker:

game, sir. Like, that's undeniable. Yeah.

Speaker:

In the game. Undeniable. And that was.

Speaker:

That was my thought. Like, you. Oh, no,

Speaker:

he's really invested. Like, yes, he has

Speaker:

skin in the game. For real. With each

Speaker:

individual client. With each individual.

Speaker:

Each individual client. It's like. Right.

Speaker:

And the way mine is built, I do one on one

Speaker:

coaching in a group setting. It's one of

Speaker:

the things I offer. Okay. Because you know

Speaker:

what? In coaching, so many people say, oh,

Speaker:

you could charge so much more for one on

Speaker:

one coaching. Yeah. But you're also

Speaker:

wasting a lot of your own time. Yeah. So

Speaker:

imagine if you could have a room with five

Speaker:

or ten people in it, come every week to a

Speaker:

Zoom meeting every, like, three or four.

Speaker:

Three out of the four weeks, and you go

Speaker:

bring your issues to me. Let's discuss it

Speaker:

in front of everybody. Why? Number one,

Speaker:

you have an issue and you want to bring it

Speaker:

up. Somebody else in the group might have

Speaker:

a similar issue that they didn't have to

Speaker:

think about. Okay. Right. Or they may have

Speaker:

a solution that I don't come up with. So

Speaker:

by doing one on one in a group coaching,

Speaker:

and it's all built into my program. Okay.

Speaker:

It's built into the cost of the program.

Speaker:

What's also built in is we help them build

Speaker:

their own CRM. They get the funnel pages,

Speaker:

they get the workshop. They get

Speaker:

everything. Wow. Because I want to make it

Speaker:

where it's. It's. It's that much closer to

Speaker:

being my guarantee that I talk about.

Speaker:

Right. I leave something out. Then who am

Speaker:

I? Who am I bet? Who's benefiting from me

Speaker:

leaving something out? Nobody. Nobody.

Speaker:

Nobody. You're hurting yourself, you're

Speaker:

hurting your client because you have so

Speaker:

much invested in this. Exactly. And when

Speaker:

they hit the number, the million dollars,

Speaker:

they don't have to keep paying me. But how

Speaker:

much of a relationship have I built with

Speaker:

that person that they might want to go out

Speaker:

and do some partnerships with them, y'all.

Speaker:

BFF's for life. You know, we talked about

Speaker:

this the other day, Laquita. We talked

Speaker:

about every, into every situation you get

Speaker:

into, specifically in this business world

Speaker:

we're talking about should be win, win,

Speaker:

win for you, win for me, win for the end

Speaker:

user. Right. You had your, your. You

Speaker:

recently had your event. Yes. Right. Yes.

Speaker:

About how some of the things you did could

Speaker:

be done better. We won't get into the

Speaker:

details, and we know the next time you're

Speaker:

going to set it up where it's a win for

Speaker:

you, win for the people that come there as

Speaker:

speakers and vendors and win for the

Speaker:

audience. Yes, absolutely. Right.

Speaker:

Absolutely. It's win, win, win. Everybody

Speaker:

involved has to win, because when

Speaker:

everybody involved wins, it becomes

Speaker:

repeatable and sustainable and

Speaker:

duplicatable. And duplicatable. Like,

Speaker:

there's so much growth that can happen,

Speaker:

people eagerly anticipate it. And as you

Speaker:

said, they become the raving fans that you

Speaker:

need. Yeah. Right, right. And how often do

Speaker:

people go to these things? I've gone where

Speaker:

I've walked away saying, this is great

Speaker:

information, and I've done nothing with

Speaker:

it. That part often. Very often. So by

Speaker:

coming into my program, I'm there sticking

Speaker:

a cattle product. You said, let's go. We

Speaker:

got a loving way, for sure. Right, right.

Speaker:

But it's that. It's, it's, it's that push

Speaker:

that you need. Because when I look at, you

Speaker:

know, biographies or autobiographies of

Speaker:

very successful people, not only do they

Speaker:

have that one person that's poking them

Speaker:

with the cattle prod, but they usually

Speaker:

have several people doing. That's right.

Speaker:

They usually have several people doing

Speaker:

that in the areas that they have

Speaker:

identified, smartly identified, that they

Speaker:

need to push. That's right. Right. I

Speaker:

honestly believe you could go alone, but

Speaker:

you can't grow alone. Come on now. That's

Speaker:

real good. I love that. You can go alone,

Speaker:

but you can't grow alone. That's. That's

Speaker:

absolutely. That's factual. Because I have

Speaker:

a problem with the term self made

Speaker:

millionaire because of what you just said.

Speaker:

That's right. There's no such thing as a

Speaker:

self made. You may have started, and

Speaker:

everybody has to start by themselves

Speaker:

because nobody can give you or force you

Speaker:

to do something against. I mean, not

Speaker:

really. Not in entrepreneurship. You can

Speaker:

start, but I can't make you keep going. I

Speaker:

can't even make you no longer be afraid to

Speaker:

jump off the ledge to do it. That's an

Speaker:

individual decision you have to make. So,

Speaker:

yeah, we're going to individually start,

Speaker:

but we're not going to. We're not going to

Speaker:

build, grow, sustain, none of that without

Speaker:

people. You need the support and the

Speaker:

scalability part of it is as you're

Speaker:

starting to grow, you want to focus on

Speaker:

what your zone of genius is. Yes. Whatever

Speaker:

that is. Yes. Each. Each entrepreneur has

Speaker:

their own zone of genius. And for many of

Speaker:

them, it's not building the funnels that

Speaker:

were doing this, the social media or doing

Speaker:

the marketing or the sales. And they have

Speaker:

to do it, but they don't want to do it.

Speaker:

They don't want to do. Imagine is as you

Speaker:

build your business, you get scalable. You

Speaker:

find the right people to do the things

Speaker:

that you don't want to do. That's what you

Speaker:

are best at. Yeah. That's how the people

Speaker:

have become wealthy, because they have

Speaker:

been, they, they've grown their business

Speaker:

to the place where they have, can afford

Speaker:

to go out and identify the subject matter

Speaker:

experts that are needed in each area of

Speaker:

their business so that I don't have to

Speaker:

focus on those areas. I focus on the thing

Speaker:

that I'm good at. Right. Yeah. You know

Speaker:

the book rich dad, poor dad? Yes,

Speaker:

absolutely. Robert Kiyosaki, he says, he

Speaker:

said, I don't know if he writes it in this

Speaker:

book, but I followed him for a long time.

Speaker:

He says, I want to be the dumbest guy in

Speaker:

my own business. Yeah. I want to surround

Speaker:

myself with the people. I say, the people

Speaker:

that know how work for and with the people

Speaker:

that know why. Come on. I like that. I

Speaker:

like that quote. I like that quote. I like

Speaker:

that. That doesn't diminish the how

Speaker:

people, they're strong. They're important.

Speaker:

Yeah. And they love what they do. They're

Speaker:

necessary. Yeah, they're necessary. That's

Speaker:

it. That's business. Listen, this has been

Speaker:

fun. And by the way, ladies and gentlemen

Speaker:

that are listening out there, Laquita is

Speaker:

going to get all of these documents that

Speaker:

we just created for her to look over and

Speaker:

figure out what works for her and how she

Speaker:

wants to take it. And if she wants to

Speaker:

continue with me, we'll figure out how to

Speaker:

make it go for even faster. That part.

Speaker:

Listen, y'all, y'all don't want to miss

Speaker:

this. Go back and rewind this. Look at,

Speaker:

you know, the thing. I think I'm stuck on

Speaker:

the very specific questions and needing to

Speaker:

know the very specific answers, because,

Speaker:

no, for me, when I started my entrepreneur

Speaker:

journey, my thought is, like a lot of

Speaker:

people, I'm just gonna market everybody,

Speaker:

or everybody is my customer. That's

Speaker:

hurtful. Even, you know, it's. Well, to

Speaker:

you. Yeah, it's hurtful. It's very

Speaker:

hurtful. Fortune 100 companies that pretty

Speaker:

much have limitless budgets. They don't do

Speaker:

that. Nope. They don't. They don't. They

Speaker:

have specific, strategically targeted

Speaker:

customers that they are going for.

Speaker:

Inevitably. Does it turn in kind of like a

Speaker:

net fishing mentality? But even with net

Speaker:

fishing, you're going to specific places

Speaker:

in the. In deep water where, you know,

Speaker:

specific catches are, and you get them.

Speaker:

Now, does a little sum of everything come

Speaker:

up in those nets? Yes. Do they keep it?

Speaker:

Sometimes. Sometimes, but sometimes they

Speaker:

throw it back. A lot of times they throw

Speaker:

it back because I'm only looking for the

Speaker:

salmon, you know, or I'm, you know, I'm

Speaker:

only looking for the tuna. I'm only

Speaker:

looking for whatever that is out there in

Speaker:

the deep water. And the other little

Speaker:

things that I grab, I may keep it, I may

Speaker:

not, right. But most of them catch and

Speaker:

release it back because it's not ideal.

Speaker:

It's not what they're looking for. And you

Speaker:

know what? You may get people that come

Speaker:

into your program who you just. They don't

Speaker:

fit exactly what you're doing, but you

Speaker:

have a connection with them and you want

Speaker:

to help them. You know, we want to get it

Speaker:

where we get. We're out of this pitch and

Speaker:

pursue mentality. Yeah. Right. Where it's

Speaker:

at the end of the day, people want will be

Speaker:

saying to me, and this happened on my last

Speaker:

workshop, I want in if you'll have me.

Speaker:

Mmm. Right. And then we have another call

Speaker:

to see do we fit? Do we fit? Yeah. Right.

Speaker:

Just because I have a great thing doesn't

Speaker:

mean that it's for everybody. Right. Just

Speaker:

because they apply doesn't mean I'm gonna

Speaker:

accept them. Right. Because I'm putting a

Speaker:

lot online for myself to get you there.

Speaker:

Correct. Correct. So they have to be that

Speaker:

right, Fitzhe right. They have to be that

Speaker:

right fit. It might be you're a right fit,

Speaker:

but just not right now. These are the

Speaker:

things you need to get together right back

Speaker:

and see me. Right? Exactly. Yeah. I love

Speaker:

that. I love that. Listen, Martin, this
