JMVO Weekly Primer

Man, I have to love self-producing my videos. Apologies for having to stare at the side of my head for the first 9 minutes of this episode...

With that out of the way...

We've all had those days where we don't want to wake up, workou...

The cannabis and CBD oil industry is in it's infancy. I think it's always fascinating to see how an industry that once was in prohibition gets marketed when it becomes legal.

Julian Espinosa is heading up the marketing for a new app called Cannacopia which will help consumers learn about which cannabis product will help with a myriad of health issues.

Julian and I also discuss the somewhat negative perception of cannabis along with some of the names which don't exactly help the situation! His marketing techniques include his own methods of growth hacking which are on par to help get the industry to a point beyond the old and unfair stereotypes.

If you were to start a business tomorrow, what questions would you have?

Today it seems that everyone is an overnight marketing "expert".Watch this episode! (https://youtu.be/Zqqr9-8HVhs)For me, I know what I know due to years of message crafting with thousands of broadcasting clients across a myriad of industries. I am more of a "what is your big idea and how do we boil it down to the simplest way to say it?" marketing "expert". Much of my expertise derives from a series of books that still have an impact on me today.Laura Ries of the legendary marketing powerhouse Ries and Ries carries that legacy on today. Beginning with "The 22 Immutable Laws of Marketing", Ries' principles have shaped what we know as marketing long before "branding" became the massive buzzword that it is today.Follow Laura:@lauraries www.ries.com (https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ries.com%2F%3Ffbclid%3DIwAR3-mLsPgcRCEDeEXKzZlXgAcksY4quaXLR8sFrZT3OGG-NRe0HdWKsH5DY&h=AT3aSj583y80m9FYAjOW-UXJZ-9afLRQrQx01wWbwyDDqtgavJuikYpucZ17UtpLONsnCLD_AA8yNQ9pXr82kq4CTPCKBBods_n5fIMs6ztdFGTzDFpA28Y2xs4g7BL1Zc9YBYYcqv7FSXBoT7aJhw)

I voice and produce a lot of intros and outros for various podcasts. When Syndicated Radio Talk Host Phil Valentine came to me to ask about producing one for his new podcast, I felt quite honored.

***Watch this episode! (https://youtu.be/x-kLzDUz2qQ)

Thank you to Mercedes-Benz of Music City @mbofmc for allowing me the use of their showroom for this episode!  www.mbofmc.com

Phil and I have similar backgrounds as I spent a majority of my professional life in radio. I know that he knows a smorgasbord of people better qualified to voice a special project for him. His new venture was going to be something called the PodGoats that he was going to host with his son Campbell.

I typically listen to all of the podcasts for which I produce imaging (intros, outros, promos, etc), so when theirs debuted, I took in an episode.

I have never been so hooked on something right out of the gate. I predict that The PodGoats Podcast will be one of the greats if they keep it up.

As much as I keep my podcast about marinating your mind in good stuff, I also do it to talk with people I find interesting. Phil and Campbell are very interesting people and their show....is just FUN.

If Paul Harvey and Mike Rowe had a child, it'd be the PodGoats.

FEAR plays a huge part in things NOT happening.

In 2016, I got over my fear. I decided to do what I was meant to do in this life and I had learned enough up to that point to weather the transition into what I do today and I've never looked back.

As you probably know, this is a big episode for the Primer as the King of The 10X Nation, Grant Cardone joins me to discuss:

-What we got out of our time in the car business

-The influence of our fathers

-Getting over fear

-The upcoming economic adjustment and past recessions

Plus...could you imagine a platform where the heavyweights of the business influencer world like Grant, Gary Vaynerchuk, Dave Ramsey, etc., all came together? I would moderate, of course.

We build our businesses so that one day we may work *on* them and not *in* them.

Yeah....that's easier said than done.

Angela Proffitt didn't become one of the most successful wedding and event planners in the country by lack of grit and elbow grease. Her personal record for weddings planned and executed in a year stands at over 200 with her being personally involved at almost every level.

"I would go for 4-5 days of no sleep....and showers! I just worked and worked because I loved what I was doing. But my business couldn't exist without me and that was quickly becoming a problem."

Angela is a true entrepreneur, wedding and events expert, productivity therapist, motivational speaker and a savvy designer. Yes, she wears many hats. After learning how to truly work on her business, she now brings that valuable knowledge to other entrepreneurs. Her background in psychology has enabled a key understanding how to connect with people.

In other words, she has the battle scars that allow her to be a true coach to you.
