When Perry speaks, I listen


I've been a client and good friend of Perry Marshall since I met him 20 years ago at a marketing conference.


He was one of my first marketing mentors, and his coaching and courses have been invaluable in helping me grow my businesses.


When Perry speaks, I listen.


He has an uncanny sixth sense when it comes to predicting trends.


In 2008, he warned us about putting all of your marketing eggs in one basket as Google dominated the search market.


"Diversify your traffic" Perry preached.


The infamous Google Slap of 2008 knocked thousands of businesses from the top of the search rankings causing many to go out of business.


At the same time, changes to the Google AdWords algorithm caused cost-per-click prices to skyrocket.


In 2008, Perry warned us about the economy.


The mortgage crisis led to many people losing their jobs, homes, and retirement savings.

It was a reminder that financial innovation without proper oversight can have devastating consequences.

Perry also warned us about another potential economic downturn in 2018. Despite a growing economy in the US, the stock market tanked.

This week, Perry is doing a webinar,
"The Equity Mindset: How to Think, Act, and Negotiate Like an 8-Figure Exit Owner."

Here’s the truth: Every quarter, Perry helps one of his clients exit their business with a 7-, 8-, or 9-figure payday.

But just as often, he sees entrepreneurs get eaten alive by vulture capitalists—walking away with almost nothing.

The difference?

It starts in your
mindset.

In this session, Perry will show you:

✅ The leverage points most business owners never see
✅ The critical mindset shifts that separate successful exits from disasters
✅ How to raise capital without “selling your soul”
✅ The framework for maximizing value while staying in control

If you want to build a business that sells for top dollar (instead of getting swallowed by investors), you don’t want to miss this.

Join us on Thursday February 20th at 10 AM Pacific/1 PM Eastern

What if everything you needed to say about your business could fit in a single sentence? Not a tagline. Not a mission statement. One sentence that stops your ideal client cold and makes them think, "That's exactly what I need." That's the premise behind Neil Gordon's Silver Bullet. Once you understand it, you'll never pitch your business the same way again. Here's how it works. Most of us lead with our solution. We talk about what we do, what we offer, and why we're qualified. But Gordon...

The fog was already burning off San Francisco Bay when I sat down at my desk in San Anselmo, coffee going cold beside my keyboard. I had a problem. Not a new problem. The same one I'd been circling for decades. I've been on the internet since 1992, back when most people had no idea what it was. The browser wouldn't be invented for another five years. I'd managed networks, sold computer hardware, and watched the entire digital world get built from the inside out. Then I pivoted to LinkedIn...

Mike White walked onto Survivor 50 with no immunity idol, no physical advantage, and no survival skills. What he had was a story. The creator of The White Lotus knew exactly what his weapon was. "Being a storyteller is pretty much my only skill set," he admitted. "Being able to see people in their narrative, articulate that, and get in people's heads." His strategy wasn't to outrun or outmuscle anyone. It was to make every player feel like he was a supporting character in their story. For...
