Ep 174 - Elena Cardone On How To Build An Unbreakable Business and Mindset
01/20/23 • 59 min
"You have to know what you're willing to give up to get where you want to go. A lot of that is mindset. You have to make sacrifices. Every dollar that we earned went into our own self-enhancement, like doing a course or learning from someone who had the knowledge in the area we wanted to specialize in. Once that paid off, then we were able to invest money back into our business. We were still broke, we were making money, but we were spending it all back into ourselves and our business. Then, we started to hire out, because no empire can be built alone. You will have to depend on somebody if you intend to build an empire. You can't do everything. You have to see the people you hire as investments. Finally, when we had enough money left over, we invested it in income-producing properties that produced cash-flow every single month, and that's what funded our lifestyle. Now even as billionaires, we don't violate those principles, we spend earned income only in enhancing ourselves."

Amanda Holmes on The Dream 100 And The Ultimate Sales Machine For Your Business
"The fastest, least expensive strategy to double your sales is The Dream 100. It started with my dad working for Charlie Munger. He was given a list of 2,200 potential clients to cold call. He analyzed the list and discovered that 167 clients had bought 95% of the space. He then decided to laser focus on those 167 dream clients and began to follow up with them weekly, adding value, sending direct mail, and more. Within 6 months he closed one of the biggest contracts the industry had ever seen, out of those 167, and the company continued to grow constantly. The definition of the Dream 100 is: who is that one person that if you could have them as a client, it would completely change your life. And to land them as a client, you have to be in their face, in their place, in their space."
