Excellent training!!!! @18:54 blew my head off. I was aware of the principles and ideas Chris was sharing, but MAN!!! Never did I think that understanding a pain point for a specific audience could be THAT LUCRATIVE!!!! It's really got me thinking about my offer!!

[kevji]

fear of commitment is the limitation in confidently embodying your positioning as a creative.
we feel that when we commit to a 'who' we are limiting our potential and thus comes up a fear of making the wrong decision.

There is no wrong decision. Commitment is the doorway to take the next step, and if it doesn't work according to your projections, not only do you have the valuable feed-forward to refine your practice but you also have new feed-forward on collaborating with your fears.

Commitment is the doorway to deeper freedom, we just always see it like this.

"You have to give me more words" -said one of the best teacher ever !💯👍👍👍 Words =Money...Don't be afraid to talk..to ask questions...investigate... And the bag "DO MORE WITH LESS" strategically placed there 😏

“When your outgo exceeds your income then your upkeep becomes your downfall .” A strong argument for flipping the scrip before turning the page. I really enjoyed how you went from feeling torn to confident, from desiring direction to clarity.. you got skills 🎉 cheers

[TheSarahshow]

Thank you for being vulnerable and honest. It means the world.

"It is not the thing that you do, it's solving the pain-point of the person that's writing the check."

[thescribblemedia]

As a creative, we do want to spend money to make money, or learn to make money, but the problem is that we are frugal in spending because there is not much to spend. Especially in a 3rd world country where our earnings are just enough for the daily cost of living.

My god, it’s this very stage (finding the target audience) that I’m currently stuck in and racking my brain in an attempt to figure out how to reach & target them. This was really great and insightful. And I’m glad it’s only Part 1!

[vincentglass]

Looking forward to the Bootcamp 2, This is much needed content for creatives 🎉

[camerongould]

Thank Chris & the team; I know, I will have the money to support you guys with all the valuable information you provide

[RichMaciverPhoto]

This was such an interesting point of view. I work as a commercial photographer. But the biggest pain is scrapping around trying to get my “target audience” (sports brands) to work with me. But … maybe it’s not sports brands I should be targeting 🤔…

[TotallySafeAir]

"swim in the sea of same" WOW that is so absolutely true!

[WealthThroughValue]

This is exactly the place where I stuck. I would give everything to be able to participate in this workshop. I need a mind shift.

[owenoko]

This format of basic concepts of business with lots of variety of examples is incredibly valuable. Thank you Chris.
However I never seem to stumble upon a video that contains a scenario I combat very often, such as this:
Customer: I have a problem and need it solved.
Me: I can solve your problem for $x.
Customer: Wow that is a lot of money for your services.
Me: If I were to solve your problem in x timeframe, how much revenue would this bring your business?
Customer: 10k.
Me: So would my price of 2k seem justifiable to you?
Customer: I DO NOT NEED THIS SERVICE THAT BADLY.

Many people in my target customer base will not pay this because my competitors rates are 20% lower; however I produce a higher quality and more convenient product for them. How do I place realistic prices on my deliverables that will entice my customers rather than push them away?

[georgyzhukov]

Very nice theme for speech, cant wait to se more! Thank you!

[kathieowen]

Woo hoo! Been waiting on this!!! Thank you Chris.

[AltOmkar]

Marketing = Sales + Branding

Paid Lead Gen is a part of sales process.

Organic Lead Gen is a part of branding process.

Lead Nurturing is branding.

Lead Closure is sales.

Everything else - advertising, marketing research, content creation - everything is a part of sales and / or branding depending upon specific objectives.

The REAL gold is in the next segment that we don't see....can you please post a short video of where everyone is "attacking" the buyer personas? This would immensely help us vet/analyze our own buyer persona. Thank you!! 🙏 😊

[josevargas]

I follow really few people on youtube, I have seen a tonnage of people on youtube. Precisely, I have had to cut through the garbage on this platform multiple times, and even the most entertaining videos are garbage because in the end they leave you with less than you started. Your content is top notch, the attention your videos are getting does not reflect the magnitude of the wisdom you are gifting. I guess, like you say, the right audience is usually not the largest one.

2:30 I have a question about this. I sell books and have a fulfillment team to help me ship out the books to customers. This job needs to be done obviously but they are not directly contributing to bringing 5x in income or growth to my company. So…that would make them an expense to my company but a necessary one that I cannot reduce costs in — i.e. how much I pay them of course. So my question is, is it ok that some of my business expenses (like employing a helper or two to fulfill shipments) do not 5x my overall company’s profitability or should I be doing something with my team to make that part of my business expenses lower and more profitable?
