I'm getting a good quantity of leads, but they are not scheduling consults or calling or emailing at the rate that I would like. So my question is what's the number one thing I should do next? OK. What's the thing you sell?

When would you use campaign budget versus ad set budget? Later...

I had some problems with the ad approval. I'm selling mortgage and basically I'm trying to base my ad upon the refinancing of the mortgage. So I would like to ask you for some advice, for my copy, so it doesn't get not approved. 

So my niche is a sub-niche, it's dreadlocks, which is a sub-niche of natural hair. And so if I were targeting natural hair, there are lots of influencers and products and brands that I could target, but not so much, being the case for specifically dreadlocks. So I'm trying to think about how do I expand and find different targets when there's really not targetable...

I'm wondering, should I make my challenge more general to cater to all interests? So I have people that are coming into this challenge that are probably interested in cosmetics or outdoors or beauty...or should I tweak the challenge and make it only about one specific niche?

A lot of people are curious about the in-between...they publish their ads, what should they be doing for the next three days? Just while they're waiting for the ads?  Any recommendations?

So we're going to move those people to pitch our membership group, but we want to create a new lead magnet, similar to your idea of elite owner operator. But it's specifically for real estate agents who make $500K or our number is more like 300 and up, but what type of the lead magnets do you find work better for attracting that type, or do you go straight to hire us to do it for you?

We're recording this for you in this little wooden room of the California place where we are staying for the next couple of weeks, here in the summer, and just had the craziest health thing happen...

Mike says, is the majority of your business still from selling info or consulting? Which business model do you prefer right now? It's info. And there's a deliberate reason for that. There are two deliberate reasons for that. #1 - it's personal preference, which was spawned by me being wore out...

What courses of yours are a good fit for a very advanced, well-established internet marketer? Really depends on the desired outcome. I consider myself to be a very advanced, well-established internet marketer, and what I always go back to is the fundamentals or...

I want to share an unusual belief that was, I'm going to put this in air quotes, forced on me growing up that forever changed my life for the better. I say forced on me, again in air quotes, because I was never given an option to consider it. It never occurred to me that it might not be true. It was literally repeated to me over and over and over again. And I believed it and I gotta tell ya, I thank God for the belief. And I thank God  that I believed it, that I quote unquote, fell for it. So here's the belief...

Would an e-com store brand benefit from the maximizer? Yeah! With e-com, where you guys fall off...

My question is...I am doing web design, you know, landing page on websites, so I was wondering what is the best way to create a segmentation on Facebook for that? To create a segmentation? By segmentation, do you mean target?

So I've got a physician and a therapist and she's working with PTSD and trauma. Wondering what the best way to do an old-school ad would be with this.  Oh, "read this if you..."

What do you think about building a lead generation ad that is actually a conversion ad on Facebook? First step is the freebie/lead collection. Next page is a low ticket offer and order bump, then upsell.  It's fine. You just have to be prepared for them to a. not click to the next page...

Today, I have 10 words for you that can polarize or they can unify. My hope is that they unify. Here they are. The words are...

Really my question is wrapped around the case study that you used in the direct presentation that you used to get us into this class where day one was the $1.80 ad spend and then eventually you showed the 30 days in May where you spent about $3.50 and generated $600,000 in sales. So I guess really, I'd love to have a walkthrough of the 30,000 foot view of, you start day one at a $1.88, you get three days worth of data. Day three to six, day six to nine. What's that high level thinking that you use from the beginning all the way to the end result of that campaign? That was unbelievable...

It's not like it happens every day. It's not like the whole campaign was a 100X return on ad spend and it's not like that is happening at scale. It still looked cool though! So that's pretty good and I've never had that happen before. No kidding, it was really pretty freakin' crazy!

How can I build clientele for my wife's salon targeting a 50-mile radius? Dude, this fits in perfectly with the earlier question of what would you do if you lost everything and only had $10K and had to start all over. I would service businesses like the one referenced. So dude, here's what you do...

First thing I want to point is that is not really normal. A little bit of a fluke there, doesn't happen every day. Just happened to have 2 of them do that yesterday, which was great! So when I put those little videos up...

So he had a question about his lead quality. His audience is executives and entrepreneurs. He said in the past, he kept getting unqualified leads from Facebook. He was wondering, are they active on Facebook or does he need to use LinkedIn for this type of audience?  OK. So to you, I would say kind sir, welcome to the club...

So today's episode is about one magic question that can change everything. I really crack myself up with these titles sometimes, but there's really some validity to the statement. I promise. So, I'll reveal the magic question in a minute. This will be a short episode, but let me set the scene for you....

What's happening, hope you're well. So what we're going to talk about today is the one thing that beats motivation, hands down, every single time. Personally, love motivational stuff. Love it. Huge fan, like reading it, like listening to it. I don't know who my favorite is...

Have you ever heard of that book Miracle Morning by Hal Elrod? I listened to that a couple of years ago on audio book, and I can't remember exactly what it said, but I'm mentioning the book because probably some of what I'm going to share with you is inspired by what I read or more accurately listened to in that book. I want to give credit where credit is due preemptively because surely none of this is original. I want to introduce you to the concept of the imperfect morning routine. We all talk about, well not we all, but we all at least hear about a morning routine, and the importance of a morning routine...

Hope everybody's well. Happy whatever today it is...Saturday. I want to answer a question that was on my mind. It's been on a lot of people's mind, what's the deal with this Clubhouse thing, is it worth messing with? There's a lot of debate on it. So here's the thing about Clubhouse...

He says, how do you inspire to create new stuff and trainings for your clients without modeling the new guy, modeling the new guy? Dude, I don't care what the new guys are doing. I care about what I learned from that guy, Albert Lasker. And from that other guy, David Ogilvy. And from that guy, Claude Hopkins. And from that guy, Gary Halbert. And Dan Kennedy...and hard won experience.

When would you use campaign budget versus ad set budget? Later...

What's happening y'all? This is an honest to God, real live actual planned podcast episode. So let's dig right on into it. I got a question, a good question, the other day. I forgot who asked me so I can't credit them that, but whoever you are, thanks for asking it. The question was, what three beliefs do you wish you had when you were 20? Which was really a good question. All the self-help folks, as a generalization, will tell you that your beliefs affect your thinking, your thinking affects your decisions, your decisions affect your actions and in your actions affect your life. Yada, yada, yada. I believe all of that to be true. Only reason I'm yada yada yada -ing it is because I know you've heard it a billion times, just like I have. Man, what a good question. So I spent a lot of time thinking about it and I don't know if I've got three, but I've got one that I wish I would have, I could have installed in my 20s and here it is...

So you lead with the lead magnet and you have to email them, obviously. Do you just email them both the lead magnet and a link to the VSL? Or do you have any recommendations on the first email you send after the opt-in via the lead ad? Yeah. First of all, if you have a VSL and it's educational, then your lead magnet can be the video itself...

How do you inspire yourself to create content?  Dude. It's fun! So, this is like...this, debauchery and food, and, you know, inappropriate things to talk about on a livestream that all other dudes think about it. This is the only thing that I ever think about. Ever. 

I had some problems with the ad approval. I'm selling mortgage and basically I'm trying to base my ad upon the refinancing of the mortgage. So I would like to ask you for some advice, for my copy, so it doesn't get not approved. 

Let's get to work. OK, try to do these every day. Share some new insights. Some picking up along the way. Crazy thing happened on Clubhouse yesterday, which is increasingly addicting, by the way. Who knows what will happen with this thing? So many questions around the topic of Clubhouse. Is it going to replace this or that or the other? The answer in my opinion is no. It's not going to replace anything, but it is a pretty good feeder system for other platforms, like somebody sees you on Clubhouse. If you're able to help or contribute, then maybe they go check you out on YouTube or listen to your podcast, or check out your Instagram or Facebook or whatever. It's also a great place to pick up insights about what's going on in the mind of your customer, which we've talked about before. So yesterday, I got pinged into a room...

One more question. A friend of mine asked me to help with an ad for a water purification system he sells, but this will be very hard to try to get leads for that. So the lowest hanging fruit is going to be an individual who's thinking about buying...

I'm getting a good quantity of leads, but they are not scheduling consults or calling or emailing at the rate that I would like. So my question is what's the number one thing I should do next? OK. What's the thing you sell?

So my niche is a sub-niche, it's dreadlocks, which is a sub-niche of natural hair. And so if I were targeting natural hair, there are lots of influencers and products and brands that I could target, but not so much, being the case for specifically dreadlocks. So I'm trying to think about how do I expand and find different targets when there's really not targetable...

Let's talk about money goals. They say you're supposed to have 'em and they say you're supposed to set financial targets. I got to tell you, I'm not sure I agree. I mean, to some degree, obviously it's a pretty good idea, but here's something I'll share with you from personal experience, might help you have yourself more fun and a better life...

He had, from April to July, his best roll on Facebook ads. He had 13x return on ad spend, and then he screwed up. He had to set up all of the business into another account. His cost per lead went up 10x the normal cost on conversions sank. Same pixel, same audience. What could be some of the reasons that he should look over to see why that happened?  OK. We're getting into harder core stuff, but I like this kind of stuff. This is cool. Alright. Any access to the original account? Is it possible to get that?

There's something I forgot to mention to you, which is how absolutely horrible the sales page is. Seriously, look at it...

A lot of people are curious about the in-between...they publish their ads, what should they be doing for the next three days? Just while they're waiting for the ads?  Any recommendations? 

Let's talk about one of the most powerful, mass-influence methods ever. I wanted to say weapons, but that just sounds weird. I don't want to weaponize this kind of thing. You know, technique, strategy, tactic, how 'bout that? Anyway, before I tell you about this, I want to warn you, this cannot be faked...
