Vince Del Monte has built his brand coaching fitness entrepreneurs to scale their high ticket coaching programs to 7 figures. After hiring coaches of his own to help him hit another level, Vince began capturing the true narrative of his clients’ fitness journey to show the rest of the world why he was worthy of the self-proclaimed title: The skinny-guy saviour. What really stands out about Vince though is his brutal and raw honesty regarding whether or not you should actually start your own business. In the beginning, Vince thought quantity always trumped quality… Today, Vince actively focuses on both the marathon and the sprint by growing his business online with quality content first and then focusing on quantity second. In this interview, Vince is going to try and talk you out of becoming an entrepreneur, for your own sake.

Jack Bloomfield is a 16-year-old Australian prodigy who is doing more than $3k/day with his 5 online e-commerce stores. This interview with Jack really surprised us, not because of his age but because Jack has the poise and business wisdom of someone 2 to 3 decades his senior. What is most shocking about Jack is that he has managed to build this business strictly in the evenings, and on weekends, while he maintains his full school schedule (and while his peers play video games or sit on Snapchat). Lastly, what sets Jack apart most is his get-it-done attitude and the way in which he challenges listeners of all ages to check their excuses at the door and do whatever it takes to self-educate online and conquer in business.
