James: James Schramko here. Welcome back to SuperFastBusiness.com. Today, I have a very special guest. Actually I do say that on every episode but I do mean it even more so in this case. Super special guest, I'm going to upgrade that with this episode. We're doing a case study with a friend of mine. He's become a friend first and then a business person second in my life. And welcome to this call, Clint Paddison. Good to have you here, mate.

Clint: Good day. How are you, James?

James: We first met through a mutual friend. And you came along and visited us at one of our live events, I think, might have been sort of an intro into the world and at the time, you were transitioning from a former career into this new passion of yours, which is a super admirable passion and that is, you had through a journey of self-discovery managed to fix some of the health issues that you had been experiencing and you wanted to share these solutions with the broader community. Is that right?

Clint: Yeah, and that's true. When I was going through terrible, crippling rheumatoid arthritis, which was affecting what felt like about 80 percent of the joints of my body, at that time all I cared about was getting myself well and being able to still perform standup comedy, which has been my day job, in inverted commas, for 17 years. And you mentioned our mutual friend, Joel Ozborn, he saw me at the worst of times, had to help me sometimes to get along the street, and all I cared about was getting well.

But then once my wife and I worked out what worked for me, she said, "We really need to be sharing this to the world and coming up with a way of sort of helping other people, because if we can just help one person with the information that we've put together then it'll be worth it." So we just started out with an e-book because I didn't want to go through the publishing process because what if it doesn't work for other people? But sure enough, the first ebook we put online, I think it sold that same day and I forget how that happened because obviously Google doesn't act that quick. But I think I'd put up a little bit of a sort of an awareness page first and then lo and behold, when we put the book up, someone bought it straight away. And that person to this day I still know and has done well and that was about five years ago when we first started with a simple e-book online.

James: So I think we've met quite a few years ago now.
