Successful Dropout

Kylon shares the 5 things he has learned interviewing over 20 Successful Dropouts since the show launched. Here's to 20 more and beyond!

Today’s guest is Katya Sarmiento - she’s an expert in technology and systems for online businesses. She’s the founder of ReachAndMakeMillions.com which provides done-for-you tech services for successful, booked out entrepreneurs and coaches that want to scale up their business and start earning passive income. 

With her help as Chief Tech Officer, Katya's clients have grown their list by thousands of subscribers in just a matter of a few months, launched telesummits and hosted webinars without tech issues, created multiple passive income revenue streams, and launched modern, high-converting websites and back-end sales funnels that sell. 

She is now on a mission to help other entrepreneurs spend less time making more money and changing the world, so that they can have more time for their personal life and build the business of their dreams.

This week's FAF is a little different. After an attempt to create a regular episode failed due to a long work day that left Kylon exhausted of all advice-giving-skills, his wife and sister take over the mic and start asking him random questions. 

Isaac is an entrepreneur, thinker, and communicator dedicated to the relentless pursuit of freedom, and an advocate of self directed learning and living. He is the founder and CEO of Praxis, an intensive nine-month program combining a paid apprenticeship at a startup with personal coaching, professional development projects, and interdisciplinary education leading directly to a full time job offer for those who want more than college.

He is the author of six books, and he is also is the host of The Isaac Morehouse Podcast where he talks about education, entrepreneurship, big ideas, how to put them into practice and how to live free.

When he’s not with his wife and kids or traveling the country he’s smoking cigars, playing guitar or watching sports.

Kylon has his younger sister, Chelann Gienger on the show to talk about why she dropped out of college to pursue entrepreneurship. 

Chau has been an entrepreneur for 10 years. In 2005 he co founded Campus Special which was recognized by Inc. Magazine as one of the fastest growing private companies in the US for four consecutive years. In 2014 Campus Special was acquired by a public company and Chau moved on to start his current venture, HireWire which is the first on-demand hiring marketplace connecting hourly job seekers to potential employers. HireWire has also raised 3.8 million dollars in funding to date to tackle on demand hiring. 

Kylon shares an incredibly simple three step formula to help you be anything, do anything, and have anything in a shorter period of time, with less work. It's all about FOCUS.

Clearly define what you want to be, do, and have. Write this down! Get REALLY REALLY clear!

Eliminate anything in your life that doesn't help you achieve what you want to be, do, and have. Also ADD anything that will help you achieve those goals. 

Automate and delegate as much as possible.

William McCanless is a high-school dropout with no college education that accidentally became a high-converting direct response copywriter and online marketer after being fired from every normal job he's ever had. Currently living in Thailand, traveling the world, and trying not to drink too much with doe-eyed Swedish backpacker girls, William is currently making the transition from reference-only copywriter, only known in small high-paying circles, to product creator and teacher. In the next month, he'll be debuting a brand new high-end course called The Dark Art of Copywriting: Embracing The Power of Persuasion in which he'll teach the driving psychology behind what makes copywriting work and how to use this power for your business, personal life, and social interactions
