Disruptors

At the age of 19, entrepreneur Ben Francis founded Gymshark now a global fitness apparel powerhouse valued at $1.3 billion and today, he joins the Disruptive Entrepreneur podcast to discuss he journey from bedroom to board room, the mindset needed to start, grow and scale a brand and why empowering a great team around you can help to drive your business forward.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Luck comes in all different shapes and sizes and it is situational to every individual’s upbringing, skillset and circumstances. To some degree, you also make your own luck in life. Intuitive thinking and taking risks can help to set you apart from your competition.

• Having the mindset of saying “I don’t care what you think, I am going to do it anyway” in business, may work up until a point. However, when you start to build great teams you begin to realise that this mindset cannot continue as you need to build the amalgamation of all the ideas around you. You need to then take those ideas and morphe them into a vision and then learn to communicate them in an eloquent and inspiring way. You have to be able to learn new skills very quickly and be open-minded with them.

• You cannot let your failures define you. Some people will allow you to believe that they have never failed, and they tend to be the ones that don’t perform as well. Be open about failure and encourage that within your business.

• One of the most fundamental truths in growing your business is that the more responsibility you take on, the more meaning your life will have. When you have people reporting to you, you work for them. You need to be there for them, support them and give them the tools to allow them to succeed. You end up working in overdrive to support the people reporting to you.

• Within a team, you need different people to form a great team. However, they should all be highly motivated people, that are good human beings that want to create a change within the world.

BEST MOMENTS

“Luck comes in many different shapes and sizes. It is situational.”

“I think those skills definitely adapt as the business grows.”

“Anything negative, I am not going to have anything to do with it.”

“The only very few regrets I do have been when I haven’t trusted my gut and gone through with something.”

ABOUT THE GUEST

At age 19, Francis founded Gymshark out of his bedroom in his parents' house. Now the fitness apparel and accessories brand is one of the fastest-growing companies in the U.K. The Instagram-savvy brand's revenue reached $50 million last fiscal year and is expected to hit $120 million in 2018.

It is no secret that Influencers have a huge presence in the world of marketing  and collaborations with them can be great for you and your business, the only difficulty? Getting them to reply to their DM’s! Join Rob today as he explains how to get huge influencers to reply to your DM’s and collaborate with you. Rob discusses the importance of sharing their content on your platform, the benefits of the good old fashioned phone call and how to grab their attention with thoughtful gifts.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• To attract the attention of a large influencer, you can share their content on your stories as a way to build reciprocity. Shout out to other influencers on your Instagram stories, and they will do the same for you. If you don’t have a large following, don’t worry. Approach people who are on level with you, or slightly above you. You don’t actually have to shoot for the influencers with millions of followers instantly, you can build your way up to this.

• Offer the influencer something. Do some research on them and find out what their passion project is. When you approach the influencer make sure you are very specific and talk about their passion project that many other people don’t know then you will have a lot higher chance of getting their attention.

• It is considered ‘retro’ these days to pick up the phone and call someone. There is nothing wrong with having a volume strategy, as long as you weave in some personal and elegant touches to your phone calls then you will win. You build a proper connection and rapport off the platform.

• For those bigger hitters and people who you really would like to connect with, you can purchase a thoughtful gift for them. You can get creative with some cool gifts that do not cost too much money and help get their attention. You are not able to do this on a large scale so it is a good idea to make a list of your top 50 influencers, and these are worth taking the time and effort to write handwritten letters too and sending them thoughtful gifts.

• Send the influencer a testimonial of their work and how they have personally impacted you. Post a testimonial on your social media, tag them in and get their attention. Everyone that has a product or service to sell will need more testimonials, so this will help them too. 

BEST MOMENTS

“There has got to be an outcome and a benefit to them.”

“Doing a collaboration and a partnership is like a ladder, you won’t get to the top rung without starting at the first.”

“I think you’re going to win, and win big!”

“Some of these people don’t even know I'm planning a collaboration with them.”

International fitness trainer to the stars and pop royalty Michael Jackson’s trusted security guard and friend, Matt Fiddes joins Rob today to discuss THAT royal interview with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. Together they discuss their thoughts and opinions on the interview,  how the interview with the world's most successful TV broadcaster Oprah has helped launch their new personal brand and  Matt shares his personal experiences with Prince Harry.

KEY TAKEAWAY

• It is understandable that Prince Harry would like to protect his wife given the fact that she was having mental health problems, and was having suicidal thoughts. However, to broadcast it to over 1 billion people, could potentially make her the most hunted woman ever in the media. Prince Harry does not want a repeat of what happened to Princess Dianna however the interview was broadcast to 1 billion people.

• It is hard to believe that Megan and Harry would have sat there in front of Oprah without knowing what was going to be asked. The Megan and Harry interview was not live, it was edited so there was a huge amount of control for all three of them.

• Prince Harry and Megan have got to start thinking about making some serious money as they are no longer getting any palace funding. Prince Harry is a very clever man and is very much in control of his and Megan's life and he always aims to protect both her and their son. Security for the three of them will cost a lot of money and they need to think about how they can afford this lifestyle.

• Prince Harry and Megan have launched their personal brand on the world's largest TV broadcast with the world's most successful TV interviewer. They are cleaning up their personal brand and they are also clearing up some truths.

• The irony here is that they have a desire to be private and secure and yet they are living in the hottest press city in the whole world and have just been guests on the biggest show in the world. They are launching their new life and distancing themselves from the royal family and now everyone is going to be talking about them forever.

BEST MOMENTS

“This thing will go on for months. I don’t think it was the smartest thing to do.”

“They had a right to share their side and had a right to share their truths.”

“What better way to launch your brand than on Oprah?!”

“He’s a clever guy. Prince Harry is not a clown.”

“Personally I don’t begrudge them that at all.”

ABOUT THE GUEST

Matt Fiddes is one of the most respected experts in the international world of martial arts and fitness. Matt’s achievements have seen him honoured at the highest level, after being inducted into the UK Martial Arts Hall of Fame and presented with the prestigious ‘Martial Arts Superstar Award’.

“Money don’t make me, I make money”

Floyd ‘Money’ Mayweather joins The Disruptive Entrepreneur podcast LIVE to discuss his mindset and motivation to achieve success throughout his undefeated 50-0 boxing career, why he is looking forward to his exhibition fight with Logan Paul; PLUS he shares details on the smart money investments he has continued to make since his first paycheque.

Rob and Floyd dive into the value of self-preservation, the need for continuous growth and why the comeback is always bigger than the setback.

Listen in to another exciting episode with the greatest boxer of all time who has an estimated net worth of more than a half-billion dollars!

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• People will always judge you. You must focus on self-preservation and always do what is best for yourself because you cannot please everybody and if you cannot please everybody, then entertain them.

• One of the smartest business moves that you can make is to bet on yourself. As an individual, you must always live and learn and be the best version of yourself wherever possible. It’s important to use negatives and motivation as fuel to turn them into a positive.

• Learn how to manage money on a small scale first and then you’ll be able to make smart and intelligent money moves when you grow and scale but always surround yourself with smart and intelligent people and always be a team player.

• Never settle for anything and continuously strive to grow and achieve more by looking at setbacks as an opportunity for a comeback because it is how you visualise life that will determine if you will win.

• Money is able to put you in a position to have the finer things in life because life is all about experiencing different things but you should never work hard to earn money and then invest it in something that you know little about, you must be patient, educate yourself and learn about your prospective investments.

BEST MOMENTS

“Sometimes you have good nights, sometimes you have bad nights but we always get paid”

“My focus is self-preservation, you must always go out and do what’s best for you first”

“Always be the best that you can be in whatever you’re involved in”

“My dad always taught me to win, but winning is not always about getting your hand raised, it’s about giving 100%”

“I’ve been involved in commercial real estate since the beginning of my career.”

Influencers are a great way to spread the word about your products and services, however it can be hard to get their attention, form a relationship with them and collaborate together. Join Rob as he reveals how to grab influencers' attention to ensure a response from them. Learn the importance of growing your own following to capture their attention, how creating content for them can encourage a positive relationship and why going through mutual acquaintances can build the trust every influencer wants.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• The bigger your following, the greater influence you have. Having a certain number of followers is a credibility indicator. Do your best to continuously grow your following and people will respond to you quicker. If you focus on building your Clubhouse platform, your Instagram following will simultaneously grow along with it.

• Connect with influencers through people who you know that are connected to them already. Take a little bit of time to work out who is connected to the individual whom you want to collaborate with. Sometimes it is better to go a bit slower and find out who is connected to someone and go through the mutual acquaintance as this will build trust.

• Create content for influencers and send it to them. Many influencers struggle with the volume of content they are required to put out there, so when people send them content that is relevant to their personal brand they will likely want to work alongside you again. Create image quotes of their content that you can post on your social media and tag the original creator in it. They will see this and engage and respond to your post.

• You can pay really big commissions on your products and services. If you are asking people to promote your products but are only paying a small percentage in return, then there is not much incentive for the influencer. However, if you up your commission to a larger amount then people are going to be more likely to want to share it as they are going to earn well out of it.

BEST MOMENTS

“You should be getting to know them first and looking at how you can help them.”

“When you go through a trusted source it is much easier.”

Build your clubhouse and you will build your instagram.”

“I can’t understand why anybody wouldn’t have a podcast.”

In today’s podcast, join Rob as he discusses how to handle the stresses of lockdown 3.0 and how you can create a new income from the comfort of your own home. Rob discusses how you can stay positive during lockdown by cultivating your social media network and friendships to ensure you remain upbeat. He also shares his top tips to homeschooling and discusses how you can turn the information in your head into income in your bank account.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• How do you stay positive in the lockdown, when the world isn’t? Firstly, you need to cultivate your social media feeds, curate your friendships very carefully and be careful of the media and influencers you put in your head. You must protect your energy. We are programmed to be more attuned to negativity so you have to take control and ensure negativity does not take over your mindset.

• Whilst raising kids is rewarding, it can at times, be very hard. It is even harder during lockdown whilst having to juggle home schooling. A top tip to make things slightly easier would be to batch the times in the day such as before they wake up in the morning, where you can get some work done. You can only do what you can do and remember not to beat yourself up if you can’t do anymore.

• Nothing is all good, and nothing's all bad. If you’re feeling depressed it is because you are only seeing the downsides of the lockdown, however if you were to look at the upsides such as long walks, more time at home or potential new business ventures you may see a light at the end of the tunnel. If you think about what you’re grateful for, how your future could be changed for the better and where the opportunities are then you will lift yourself out of the depression quite quickly.

• There is good and bad in every situation and in every day. We tend to make one thing, everything, meaning if one thing goes wrong we believe everything has gone wrong. However this is not always the case. Whilst one or two things may have gone wrong during your day, not everything went wrong. Reflect on what went well and your mindset will change.  However, when everything is seemingly all good, remember there are likely to be challengers as well.

• There are many different business models that are working well in lockdown. For those who are starting a whole new business, e-commerce is thriving during the pandemic. Platforms such as Shopify, Amazon and Etsy are a brilliant way to get your products sold online. An even less risky strategy of that business model is to sell information virtually. Turn the information in your head into income in your bank account.

BEST MOMENTS

“I’m only having one conversation a day about The Government, Boris or Lockdown.”

“You must protect your energy.”

“Surround yourself in positive audiobooks and positive Clubhouses, listening to positive podcasts around positive people. What you put in your mind, you become.”

In this week’s show, Kevin Clifton talks to one of his mentors, author, property investor and our host of the ‘Disruptive Entrepreneur’; Rob Moore! Kevin asks Rob his view on various subjects such as the impact of Covid 19 on his business and how he turned the downside to an upside, his coping strategies and the use of social media.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Having more structure to your days and creating a new routine for yourself can be beneficial to your productivity. Having a structure whereby you map out your days means that you are more likely to achieve these things. Having this also forces you to be more disciplined. 

• There is a lot of pressure from society to work a certain amount of hours per day. Comparison is often the thief of all joy. Stop comparing your routine to others and do what works best for you.

• The social media algorithms are designed to make us addicted to those platforms. The more they have us on their channels the more money they make. Everything has an upside and a downside, as soon as you see something as all upside you’re in a fantasy. If you go on social media expecting nothing but upside, then you are naive about the reality of it.

• It is important to set rules. Even if it is something as small as what time you read your book or what you have for breakfast. Putting those rules in place means that you are now a disciplined person.

• The line between social media being good for you and damaging for you is very fine. You need to have the wisdom to know where that line is. Keep the way you use social media ever-evolving. Social media feeds you what you have told it you want to see. If you are seeing things you don't want to see you need to give the platform feedback so that it will show you other stuff.

• Make sure you are consuming media that you enjoy. If you know something will harm you, don't listen to something because others said that they enjoyed it. Surround yourself with stuff that is going to influence you in the way that you want to be influenced.

BEST MOMENTS

‘If you knew your future that would ruin it immediately’  21.12

‘Anxiety is a worry about the future, guilt is a regret of the past’ 23.19

‘Routine equals results, discipline equals freedom’ 29.28

‘Do easy things for a hard life or do hard things for an easy life’ 30.50

‘The line between social media being good for you and damaging to you is a fine line’ 57.07

In today’s episode, Rob shares with you a masterclass on how to 10x your followers across multiple media channels. This is the result of a three hour Clubhouse Room he did recently where Rob and other members, many of whom have multi millions of followers across their various channels, discussed strategies and tactics on how to 10x followers.  These vary from the more obvious social media platforms and ways you can manipulate the functions in these, to other not so obvious methods you may not have thought of! 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

- Have a podcast – if you’ve not already started a podcast, you’re missing reaching a massive new audience. Podcast listeners are buyers; they are different to Facebook followers and Clubhouse Room followers.  Please direct message Rob for any help with setting up the tech and logistics etc.

- Have a You Tube channel and go live with your interviews. This way you’ll not only reach your own audience but the audience of the person you’ve interviewed. 

- Do shout out story collaborations with other users on Facebook and Instagram – if they do the same for you, you’ll grow your audience.

- Do Clubhouse Rooms – you’ll find users from around the world you’ve not found on other channels and consider collaborating with other members; this is an invaluable way of reaching a new audience.

- Email joint venture swaps – look for people who have a database a level below you or a level above you in the number of followers they have to forward your content to.

- Daily Tik Tok videos – don’t dismiss it if you don’t think you’re young or trendy enough, it’s not all about lip synching and dancing.  Merge what you know with Tik-Tok. In addition, daily Instagram reels is like Tik-Tok for Instagram – the reach is massive.

- Create content for bigger followers – tag influencers who have more followers than you in on your content, this will get you more shares and engagement especially if they engage with the post too. Also comment on big influencers – if you’re not commenting on the influencers you want to get noticed by, they won’t know you exist.

- Hand write letters to people you want on your podcast, to good clients, influencers you’d like to collaborate with. No one writes letters these days, so when someone receives a hand written letter they’re much more likely to accept a collaboration with you.

BEST MOMENTS

‘You’re better off getting five micro influencer at 20,000 level shout outs than you are one at a 100,000 level due to the level of engagement’

‘Go where the virality is; don’t get set on the one platform’

‘Create engagement, discussion; not trolling debate, insightful debate’

Do you ever wonder what the mindset of a millionaire must be like? Well listen in today as Rob is joined by Instagram powerhouse, motivational speaker and author Natasha Grano and discover how you can change your mindset, into that of a winning one. Together they discuss the importance of self-belief, the problem solving mindset and how to be authentic. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• If you don't believe in yourself, why should anybody else? If you don't have the skills and talents and experience that you want yet you have to put yourself into your future projection of yourself and believe that you can become the thing that you want to become. 

• Your goal in life should be to find what makes you happy, find out what is your purpose, what serves others and what you  are good at. You need to be able to monetize what you are good at, expand it and scale it. 

• The mindset for solving problems is simple. Are you prepared to solve this problem with continued enthusiasm? The test to know if you are on brand and doing something that you love is overcoming new problems, with continued enthusiasm. If you can get into that mindset, you can overcome all of your problems.

• Authenticity is owning your strengths and weaknesses. There are people that are overconfident, and there are people that are overly humble. Being real and honest with yourself about what your strengths and weaknesses are will attract greatness and people who can help you improve on your weaknesses. 

• Your friends, family and strangers may advise you not to go for new opportunities as they deem it to be risky. As long as you know in your heart that you’re meant to do this, and you are constantly taking feedback to move towards your goals then you are on track. To know that you are on track, you have got to know where your destination is and that is where your personal vision and mission comes in. 

• There is a big misunderstanding when it comes to the flow of economics. It is not admirable if you buy material items purely to show off or for addiction purposes. However there is a lot of gratitude and giving in owning nice things, and that is misunderstood. 

BEST MOMENTS 

“I believe that I would become a successful property investor, that helped me attract finance before I was maybe ready. I hate the phrase ‘fake it until you make it’, but I love the phrase ‘be it until you see it’. 

“Manage your emotions and you will master your life.”

“The skillset without the mindset will leave you upset.”

Whilst hard work and determination will eventually get you results, luck can come in all forms which can help you along the way. Perhaps your competitors will hit a wall or you will tap into a new market early on and it will boom.

• The world has been very peaceful since the end of the War. Now during the aftermath of the pandemic, people are becoming disruptive. A lot of people want a lot because it is put out to society that it is desirable to have tonnes of money and travel the world. It takes a lot more now to make people happy, they are not as happy as others once were when they had far less.

• Disruption means to change things without asking permission. When there is a change in the market go for it. Your competitors might think a new trend is just a phase in the industry, however this could catapult you into the lead of your niche industry. A phase can last 10-12 years, and can grow your company into the biggest in the industry.

ABOUT THE GUEST:

Joseph William Foster is the co-founder (with his brother Jeff) of Reebok. He shares the same birthday 18 May, as his grandfather, also Joseph William Foster who had died 18 months earlier. Joe's grandfather was the founder of J.W. Foster and Sons and the pioneer of the spiked running shoe, and also developed the trainer (sneaker). The Reebok business developed with Jeff looking after production, Joe took charge of the sales and marketing side, as well as design which included the classic silhouette, outsole and the Starcrest. In the early years Joe travelled many miles introducing Reebok’s offering shoes to Sports Retailers up and down the country. By 1965, Joe was on his way to the NSGA (National Sporting Goods of America) Show in Chicago, which was the start of many Global adventures and experiences that after 15 years brought him together with Paul Fireman  and later many stars of film and television. As the surviving founder of Reebok, Joe still welcomes the opportunity to travel and recount those early stories from start-up to making Reebok the World No. 1 sports brand. Joe currently resides in Tenerife, where he is writing a book of his many experiences and adventures.
