Our other top-ranked episode was all about marketing and how marketing is about opening a relationship and NOT closing the deal with with my friend Duane Zingale
The market is savvy, and people are getting smarter about marketing; which means the old tactics of a shark and the used car salesman won't work anymore.
You can become more in tune with new ways of marketing by being curious or passionate about learning these skills.
In this episode of the show, we talk with Duane about his philosophy that marketing is not about closing the deal, it's about opening a relationship and how we can automate this process. He believes that the art of marketing should always be framed in terms of relationships rather than transactions. We explore how to build trust through transparency and authenticity as well as how to use storytelling to create an emotional connection between your brand and your customers. This episode will give you practical strategies to help you manage your brand and humanize your business.
You will learn a lot from this episode and how to apply it to your own business, side hustle, and personal life.

Finally, There's a seldom-discussed concept behind the success of every renowned athlete, famous musician, successful entrepreneur, or even business leader I know, and virtually everyone you can think of.ย
No, it isn't because they have an outstanding IQ or academic record, the right family name, or good looks.
Here is the secret element - each of these people has surrounded themselves with other successful people, and they have all used the Mastermind Principle.
A mastermind group sounds like something that would be the exclusive realm of super-successful people, but itโs not. It can actually help anyone who wants to make progress in any area of life, from improving your career to growing as a person.
In fact, many people have found out they were using this tool without even realizing it! A mastermind group is simply two or more growth-minded individuals with goals and aspirations, meeting regularly to share information, ideas, and resources for mutual success.

It is important to understand they are not goals nor merely desires, but profound needs that underlie and motivate every choice, every belief, and every decision we make.
Because they are the driving force behind any personโs behavior, understanding the needs and the vehicles used to meet them, we will have a better understanding of why life is the way it is currently and more importantly, how to facilitate change.
