Today we have JM Schoeny in the studio. JM owns a video production company that works exclusively with corporates in the finance world to help investors raise money with compelling videos.

Here's a sneak peek at what you'll hear:

  • Why JM's about as busy as Post Malone's tattoo artist despite the pandemic and a wounded economy. - 2:20
     
  • JM nonchalantly drops a gem on niching down your business for maximum profits. - 3:05
     
  • A deviously clever thing JM did in 2017 that now has him sittin' pretty. - 3:40
     
  • A new and wide-open market that videographers who have the nous and the cojones to enter it… can make out like bandits.
     
  • The ballsy thing JM did as a punk kid that landed him a job on a Hollywood movie set. (This is perhaps the best way to get a job anywhere in any industry, yet hardly anyone does this. - 6:05)
     
  • Why JM was walking through the Hawaiian jungle alongside Jack Black, Ben Stiller, and Robert Downey Junior. (Hear this name-dropping tale at 7:00)
     
  • Den gives a basic sales lesson that almost everyone has heard, yet almost nobody uses this basic knowledge in their sales and marketing messages. - 10:50
     
  • Why every videographer should become a keen student of storytelling and persuasion. - 18:00
     
  • A foolish mistake that even grizzled veteran videographers make when dealing with a would-be client. (Not only is this foolish, but it kills your ability to persuade. - 19:30)
     
  • Golden advice for winning in business and in life. - 20:00
     
  • Gary Vaynerchuk's 3-word rant to all business owners. It's hard to argue with this one. Hear this beauty at 22:30
     
  • Wise words from Den on how to have a profitable business that you enjoy as opposed to having a profitable business that sucks the living soul out of you. - 22:15
     
  • JM spits some old fashioned and wholesome truths you can never hear too often. - 26:00
     
  • A reliable "acid test" that tells you whether you should take on a client or not. (If you’re ever not sure whether to take on a certain client or not, just ask yourself the question mentioned at 27:30 and bingo!... you'll have your answer.)
     
  • The case for targeting corporate clients if you're a videographer. - 28:00
