Hustle & Flowchart: Mastering Business & Enjoying the Journey

The Hustle & Flowchart Podcast with Joe Fier is all about how to build a business so it gives you the freedom and fuel for your life. We discuss systems, mindset tweaks, reframes, and strategies for entrepreneurs (and really anyone) to enjoy the process of being in business and having fun. This isn't for the entrepreneur looking to build a billion dollar business, rather someone who is looking to build systems that work for you, so you can make more money than you need just by working part-time. I was a chronic hustle-mode kinda guy and I want to share my experiences and mentors I've met along the way to help you reframe things so you can be the most effective as an entrepreneur. Join in conversations with Joe Fier and various mentors sharing principles and strategies to put this into action for yourself. Please enjoy and share with your friends! Listen Notes

Different people have varying views and opinions about psychedelics or mind-altering substances. A lot of people see these things from a negative standpoint because of the many stories they hear about individuals who abuse their drug use. With the recent reports that a well-known stimulant would be legalized for the treatment of cancer, now is the time to keep an open mind about the effects that these substances have on our bodies.

 

In today’s episode, Joe shares with us his ”tea ceremony” experience – his ayahuasca intake in tea form under a controlled environment that was superintended by doctors and experts. Ayahuasca is a leaf known to have mind-altering effects on people who ingest it. Tim Ferris and Steve Jobs go through the same process as Joe did to unlock their unique creativity in them. More than a recreational activity, the “tea ceremony” is executed as a ritual that reflects a religious and spiritual experience to those who take part in it.

It taught me to slow down, take a moment, deprioritize, and then act.

 

This Week on the Hustle and Flow Chart Podcast:

  • The tea ceremony process
  • What ayahuasca is
  • Ayahuasca's effect on your brain
  • Defining the “enemy” in life
  • Effects on people who do this often
  • Impact on the life and business of individuals who undergo the ritual
  • Typical set up of a “tea ceremony,” things used, rules to follow, and the people and rituals involved in it

How do you make yourself productive? Are there things that you cannot do without, like morning coffee or an afternoon run? Do you have a routine before working on a task or that help keep your mind focused on the task at hand?

There are many aspiring writers in the past who have a lot to say to the world, but don’t seem to have the means to do so. There was a time when only the big companies could publish a book. Those who wish to have their thoughts in a paperback are given a chance after going through a rigorous monitoring process and high writing standards. All these changed with the invention of the Internet, where many things became accessible and possible – even publishing a book.

 

On today’s episode, we talk about our approach as we wrote a book about mindset tactics. The formula is systematic and easy to follow. We share several tools and resources that have been helpful to us and would also be useful in your endeavor to write and publish your book. 

That’s really how you get [things] done – you set a deadline.

 

This Week on the Hustle and Flow Chart Podcast:

  • How we created the Ever Green Wisdom book
  • The different phases that we went through as we started our book-writing efforts
  • How we maximized the resources already available, like blogs, emails, and previous podcasts
  • How to publish a book in a nutshell

Brad Spencer is a digital entrepreneur and owner of 8020 Product Creation where he teaches entrepreneurs how to create products online to create consistent cashflow. Brad joins us on the show today to share his insight, system, and process for creating digital products such as webinars and online courses that will sell online for a significant return on investment.

Brad’s 3-step process has repeatedly been proven, not only by his student’s successes but also through his business success. He is a passionate believer in the 80/20 rule that 20% of your efforts will lead to 80% of your results. In fact, he truly believes that as little as four percent of what you do will create most of your results.

 

“If it’s easy to run, lots more will get done.” – Brad Spencer

 

This week on the Hustle and Flow Chart Podcast:

  • Distraction and delusion are the two things that destroy wealth and success.
  • How to honestly self-evaluate your skills and know when to “buy or borrow” someone else’s experience.
  • Why being honest and specific about your true skill levels is critical to successfully launching a new product or service.
  • Don’t try to be a little bit of everything. Partner with people who have the other stuff that you need.

Brad’s 3 Step Process to Maximizing Success:

  1. Make a list. 1) How will you get customers? 2) How will you convert them? 3) How will you fulfill?
  2. Rate the probability of success for each idea on a scale of 1 to 10, with one signifying that you’ve never done it before and 10 signifying you’ve mastered the skill.
  3. Rate 777 across Lead Generation, Conversions, and Fulfillment. Don’t get distracted by other “shiny objects.” If you do not rate a 7 or higher in an area – buy or borrow someone else’s experience.

When you hear the word “webinar,” what’s the first thing that comes to your mind? If you’re like most people, the first thing you think of is a live training. Our guest today, Drew Burks, is a funnel and automation expert that has discovered a way to help entrepreneurs automate the process of creating, delivering, and profiting from webinars.

He calls this technique the “automated webinar,” and on today’s show, he explains what an automated webinar is, the difference between the traditional webinar and this new technique, and the advantages that business owners can experience by providing automated webinars to their target market. We also discuss how to plan and market webinars to the masses to drive traffic and increase sales, and the best practices for driving your webinar participants to the order form.

 

“When you map it out and build it, you can lead the yellow brick road. You can lead them where you want to go.” – Drew Burks

  3. Figure out how you will get people to the webinar.
  4. Figure out what you want participants to do after the webinar – what you want them to buy.
  5. Create systems and processes to complete each task.
