Zvi Band, CEO and co-founder of Contactually

Today you will learn the easiest and quickest way to grow a business and get more referrals.

The cool thing about this 4 minutes routine I’m about to share, is that it works for any business.

Wether you’re trying to get your first paying customer ever, or if you’re growing an already functioning startup, or want more referrals for you existing business – executing the “do-one-now” routine will do wonders to your life and business.

I realize that this may sound like “pie in the sky”. Almost too simplistic, right? And it’s true. This secret is as simple as it gets, and it has been around forever.

But not enough people are executing it. And I hope that by the end of this episode – you’ll join the ranks of the doers!

I’m sharing this episode with you today because I know first handed that this works. I can attribute thousands of dollars and new business opportunities that this routine has already made me.

In fact, I’ve been lazy and dropped the ball on it. Even though I know it works, I’ve only been using it on-and-off because I get distracted.

Even so, even without consistency, every time I come back to this routine, without failing, something good happens to my business.

Whether it’s a new customer, a consulting gig, a speaking opportunity or a joint venture – it always has a clear effect on my bottom line.

This routine doesn’t require you to invest in any new software. In fact, it won’t cost you a penny. You don’t need any training or learning to start doing it. It works for extroverts and introverts alike. And it’s based on something you’re probably already doing tens of time a day.

To introduce this concept, I’d like you to meed today’s guest.

As a co-founder of a thriving SaaS startup, he’s eager to share his wisdom with us today. In addition to the “do-one-now” 4 minutes routine, you will also learn:

  • How he turned his startup idea into reality in just a few months
  • How he got his first 100 customers without spending a penny on marketing
  • His biggest professional mistake, and how you can avoid it

Tucker Max - Successful people don't wait to be chosen by gate keepers. They create their own gate

If you ever struggled with selling online (or offline, for that matter) – today’s episode is for you!

In today’s episode we are joined by NY Times bestselling author, book publishing thought leader and serial entrepreneur – Tucker Max.

After being rejected by every publisher in America, Tucker paved his own path to success. Although his books may not be to your taste, his insights on entrepreneurship are pure gold.

Tucker has recently launched a successful business that’s changing the way professionals are publishing books. At the same time, he also shuffled up the “self publishing” industry, by offering a product priced at 10X or more than the competition.

Although he’s (much) more expensive than the do-it-yourself competitors, Tucker has plenty of customers, and is actually turning down a good 5-10% of his prospects. What’s his secret?

Episode Highlights

  • My latest Facebook EPIC failure – and what you should learn from it so it doesn’t happen to you
  • Why you should never let gate-keepers stop you (and what to do when they do)
  • How pivoting from what your customer needs, to what your customer WANTS can drastically change your bottom line
  • The only job you as an entrepreneur have
  • Tons of F* bombs. So beware : – )
