Badass Direct Sales Mastery

About Zeph Martin:

Zeph Martin is a dedicated father, business leader, and founding member of Cili By Design. With a degree in Business from Southwestern Illinois College and years of experience in management and healthcare, Zeph has built a career focused on innovation and well-being.

His journey in network marketing is deeply personal—after witnessing remarkable improvements in his son's cerebral palsy with Swish, a cutting-edge cellular nutrition product designed for 99% absorption, he became passionate about sharing its benefits. Cili By Design’s products, including Swish and Ageless Swish, provide filler-free, high-quality nutrition that stands out in the market.

In this episode, Jennie Bellinger and Zeph Martin discuss:

Cellular Nutrition Through Water-Encapsulated CBD
99% Absorption via Sublingual Swishing Method
Personal Journey Inspired by Son's Special Needs
Network Marketing as a Long-Term Business Investment
NAD-Infused Ageless Product with Multiple Health Benefits

Key Takeaways:

Network marketing isn't a get-rich-quick scheme; it requires dedication similar to earning a college degree.
Cellular nutrition products like Swish offer revolutionary absorption methods that bypass traditional supplement limitations, and by encapsulating nutrients in water and enabling 99% absorption through mouth tissues, these products represent a significant advancement in nutritional delivery.
Personal passion can be the most powerful motivator in business, especially when driven by family needs.
Instead of viewing employment as an obstacle, smart entrepreneurs can use their professional networks and steady income to support their entrepreneurial growth.
Scientific innovation in nutrition is rapidly evolving, with cutting-edge products targeting cellular health and regeneration; and along with emerging technologies like NAD-infused supplements, it demonstrates how advanced research is creating more targeted and effective health solutions.

"It only takes a teaspoon of our product to get this daily nutrition, and by switching it, you're getting 99% absorption going directly to the cells.” — Zeph Martin

Erin B. Haag: What You Focus On Grows

About Erin B. Haag:

Erin B. Haag is the creator of Pricing Overhaul®, a proven method designed to help business owners shift their mindset around money, refine their pricing for profitability, and unlock greater financial success. A self-proclaimed “math nerd” and full-blooded Capricorn, Erin has spent over 20 years working closely with numbers, metrics, and pricing strategies across both large corporations and small, privately owned businesses. Her deep understanding of numbers, combined with a sharp ability to interpret financial data, allows her to guide entrepreneurs toward sustainable, scalable growth.

As a serial entrepreneur, Erin understands firsthand the challenges of pricing and profitability, which is why she developed Pricing Overhaul®—a system that demystifies numbers and empowers business owners to charge what they’re worth. When she’s not helping others transform their businesses, Erin enjoys traveling, indulging in great wine and cheese, and embracing life as a dedicated mom of two.

In this episode, Jennie Bellinger and Erin B. Haag discuss:

Money Mindset Transformation
Outsourcing Personal and Business Tasks
Tracking Business Numbers Consistently
Pricing as a Business Growth Strategy
Emotional Journey of Financial Self-Discovery

Key Takeaways:

Recognize that tracking finances is about growth, not judgment.
Remember that time spent on non-revenue tasks is money lost, and the audience is reminded to invest in support systems that free you to focus on what generates income.
Small, intentional check-ins can reveal powerful insights about your business trajectory.
Challenge your internal narratives about money and earning potential, and believing you deserve financial success is the first step to achieving it.
Develop a pricing approach that reflects your value and supports your business goals.

"I want everyone to have the lifestyle that I have, which is why I'm so passionate about getting money in the pockets of women in particular.”
