BreezeDoc is the simple way to sign documents digitally. Pay just $9 once, and get it forever (no expensive subscriptions here).

In today's episode it’s all about landing those big-paying jobs by working for free. That’s right, you heard me, that’s no pay today BUT… a huge one down the line, let’s call it ‘Prework’. Roll in the six or seven-figure paydays.

I'll share how I snagged jobs and clients I wasn't qualified for; from my experience at mint.com, to how Jay Yang, Mitchel, Jeremy and Cameron all landed incredible opportunities working for me by going the extra mile. I'll break down how you can do the same and make it easy for people to hire you by putting a little extra effort in first.

In this conversation, you’ll enjoy 3 BIG things:

  • How to stand out and why those generic "Can I Help You?" messages fall flat

  • Where to uncover the hidden value your future employer is overlooking

  • Make yourself indispensable by going above and beyond, even without being prompted.

Enjoy these 3 things plus many nuggets along the way.
