Doug: Well, welcome back to Real Marketing Real Fast. Today, I've got a guest from a different part of the world. I'd like to welcome Simone Vinchelli? Vincenzi?

Simone Vincenzi: Vincenzi, yes. The second one is the real one.

Doug: Vincenzi? I asked you before, and I still screwed it up. Well, he's known as the purpose strategist. He is the Co-founder of GTeX and is a TEDx speaker. He is a lead facilitator at eXplode Your Coaching Business, and author of four life-changing books. Fed up with the dirt and the personal development industry that no one talks about, he believes in changing the industry through the creation and supporting a genuine community of coaches and speakers.

He helps them do this by creating seminars that convert while delivering incredible value to the audience. During the past four years, he has transformed from working in the catering industry to building a six-figure coaching practice and shares the tools with his clients, that allows them to prosper from zero to 100,000 pounds. Over the last 12 months, he has spoken in front of 3,000 individuals, which includes sharing the stage with Les Brown, Trent Shelton, and Doug Vermeeren.

He's organized over 170 events, including a Gary V speaking from the New York Hall Boxing Ring, and he currently speaks on more than 200 stages a year. Following his passion for making an impact on the younger generation, he also partners with the largest youth organizations in the UK, helping them to deliver more effective courses and training. Simone cannot live without three things: speaking, a basketball, and playing his didgeridoo. So, welcome to the show.

Simone Vincenzi: Thank you, Doug. It's been great, and thank you for the introduction. I appreciate it.

Doug: Well, is there anything that I missed in the introduction that you'd like to add?

Simone Vincenzi: Yeah, there is something that needs to be updated, which is I'm also a Forbes' contributor. I'm a contributor to Forbes and the Huffington Post. I managed to get into Forbes after a year. I [had 00:02:05] it on my radar literally last month, so that needs to be updated there.

Doug: Congratulations, that's a big feat. Good for you.

Simone Vincenzi: Thank you. I appreciate it. I appreciate it.

Doug: So, as somebody that I've followed on social media for a while and I've watched what you're doing and what you've done, do you want to share a major breakthrough or success that you've had, maybe with a specific client or specific marketing tactic?

Simone Vincenzi: Yeah, absolutely. So there are a few things that, as we discussed before, is all about simplicity. I like to make things simple. I think that a lot of people now are running after this complex funnel, these complex business strategies. Without realizing actually that the more complex something is, the more resources, more money, more time it takes.

Doug: Right.

Simone Vincenzi: In everything I do and all the clients that I work with, I go back to basics. It's like what's the easiest way that we can monetize this product while delivering an incredible value to our clients? This is the basic principle. I think that in one of the strategies to use, to understand the principle is going back to basics because when you start a business,
