“I wanted to change the world by connecting people with the right live event to change their lives. I went all in. We sold our house, moved from Boise, Idaho to Orlando, Florida. We closed retirement accounts. We sold our car, invested everything into this idea. And about 6-7 months later, I looked at my wife and I said, “Honey, I love you but I can only pay for rent one more month.” That’s when I pivoted. I learned a lot of lessons, one I would highly recommend is never start selling low tickets.”

“We both have two or three things that we do very well. And we are very good at dividing and conquering. Another thing we are very good at is finding the bottlenecks in a system and fixing them. Whether it is through talking to a customer on the phone or motivating a VA to do a task, we just go ahead and figure it out.”

“There’s so much opportunity that’s out there. And that can really lead to some trouble. If we don’t do our due diligence, we don’t have patience. There’s so many opportunities and problems out there that are worth solving, and just very little time to get to them all. So that’s the challenge that we face day-to-day. And, we just have to be patient with ourselves.”

“We help our people and then we share. We share our findings with the rest of the world so that other server guys, or other programmers or other speed experts can also help their clients in the same manner. And, whatever they do with it good for them and I hope likewise, other people who have found the cure can also share what they found with us. So, I feel like we’re a bunch of Scientists, basically.”

“So I will tell people from the top-down, create a reward system that is something special that you can give to your employees. And also create a peer-to-peer solution for them to reward one another. You know, I start our meetings with snaps, where I will just actually give props before we get going. So people talking about their current events or some status sheet, I’ll say, ‘Hey, I’m just gonna kick us off and I want to say Meg, you did a killer job to that presentation.’“

“The mom and pop shops. The small businesses that are stuck and they have a good product. They’re good people. They’re doing everything that they think they’re doing right. They just need a little help to go up and we are helping them. – So that’s our goal. Because the small business owner is the one that changes America. They’re the ones that make the world a better place. They create the most impact. They change the economies. It’s not the big companies, it’s the small companies.”

“Some people create problems in their minds. They sit there and start biting their nails, worrying about everything. Maybe you’ve been in a situation where you’re concerned about the outcome of an event. And all of a sudden, it naturally worked itself out. 95% of the problems we focus on never come to fruition because we’re natural problem solvers and yet we create drama in our heads. So, what I do is I try to remain drama-free and minimize my exposure to negativity.”

“I love talking to people. I love my family the most. But I love actually interacting with humans because I’m a community person and family-centered. And that’s the one thing that we’re missing right now is community and communication. We get to know each other. We get to know our families. I don’t want to be the white coat. I don’t want to be like “Hey, Doc.” Like, I can never talk to you because I’m your Doctor. I want to be your friend. I want to walk with you on this journey.”

“They think that they need to be on social media all the time. And they need to jump on TikTok and that they’re looking at all these success stories of ways to reach hundreds of thousands of people. And to me, it’s just the wrong way to go about it. The idea that you build up this following of thousands of people and within that is a smaller group of people who will automatically buy something more expensive from you. I think that’s proven to be false. They can’t monetize it to save their life.”

“What I fight for is for the children. Because I feel like part of my existence is to help kids become better. No matter whether they’re homeschool, they’re in Australia or in the United States. People need to understand that children are our future and I’ve seen some horrific things. And I’ve seen some incredible things happen. And I feel like my vision and my mission is to make a difference and to share with people that we’ve got to stop teaching with an old model.”

— Dr. Aaron Smith PhD

“Talk to as many people as you can on a regular basis. Once you start to talk to them -when I say talk to them, just don’t talk to them, actually, listen to what they’re saying. Because when you start listening, they want to start to tell you the problems and the issues they’re having. And that’s going to be your golden opportunity to say, “Hey, maybe I should go focus on that.” Because if you talk to 10 people, five of them are gonna have the same issues, regardless of where you are.”

“And nobody’s going to come in and going to do your job for you. And that’s where that controlling that awkwardness that really comes into play is that you have to be that person to really step up and show yourself off. And it’s a sense of confidence that you have within your own abilities. I think that’s where a lot of people kind of falter and where a lot of failure points come into play is just a lack of confidence in what you’re doing and what you’re talking about.”
