This goes well beyond business activities. You see, you want to audit your time and where it is being spent and where you are getting the most leverage. For example, are you still cleaning your house, cooking your meals, doing laundry, and running errands? This life admin work is nothing more than a collection of low-level activities that can easily be outsourced. But how do you know when it’s time to hire a cook or a cleaner?

Are You Ready? In this book, I’m going to tell you things you won’t hear anywhere else. The methods I divulge in the following pages are highly controversial. Not because they’re untrue. It’s because they are truer than anything else you’ve likely ever been taught about sales and marketing. What you’ll discover in this book is going to change everything for you, and especially the way you think about business and your income. You see, after working with thousands of business owners and entrepreneurs, I’ve realised most business owners don’t really understand the business they are in. What I ...more

When I was eight years old, I started waking up early so I could help her set up the café where she worked before I went to school. I would sweep the floor, take out the tables and chairs, and set them up. When I was finished, she would give me a hot chocolate and some breakfast as my ‘reward’. Afterwards, kissing me on the cheek, she’d tell me she loved me and send me off to school. Why am I telling you all this? Far out, isn’t this meant to be a book about marketing? Yes, but this is an important point. Watching my mother work so hard to provide a great upbringing for my sister and me taught ...more

I made $80 in five hours. It would have taken me thirty-two hours making peanut butter at the health food store to earn that much! I ran home eagerly to show my mum, but when I tried to give it to her, she insisted I keep it for myself. I refused and she burst into tears, gave me a big hug, and squeezed me tight.

I had my review with the owner who liked me and said even though I was performing terribly, he wanted to give me another seven days to see if I could turn things around. After I stepped out of that meeting and went home for the day, I thought long and hard about what I was doing and why I wasn’t being successful. I said to myself, ‘Fuck it’, and it was as if it flicked a switch inside of me. Whether it was the owner seeing some promise and taking a chance on me, or me being backed into a ...more
