Success Explained with Chris Guerriero

The level of life you're at right now, or that you will ever be at, is all about 2 things: 1. The people you surround yourself with. 2. The opportunities that you take advantage of. I'm not telling you to chase shiny objects and jump on every potential to make a dollar. But you need to know where you're going in life. And then every opportunity that takes you 1 inch closer to that goal, take it. Watch now and see how the top CEO's do this at the HIGHEST level...

I think we all get caught up in the grind, in the day-to-day momentum of doing the things we know grow companies in our industry. And for the most part, if you're taking the right actions, that can grow a 7-figure company, maybe even a low 8-figure company. But that's a slow process, and it's a highly competitive process, meaning that everybody else in your industry is also fighting for those same customers using those same platforms. So every day you or your team are competing for the same pool of fish, and the moment that particular marketing stops performing, even just a little bit, you hit a wall in your growth... …and you have to throw more money at your campaign in order to try to pull yourself out of that hole. And that's the world that most companies live in. But I've built 12 successful companies, doing something a little different. What I'm going to show you in this video has been responsible for hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue, not just in my companies, but also in the companies in my advisory firm, so this framework are duplicatable. And it's called the 7-day sprint. Tune in now to see what the 7-day sprint is, and how YOU can use it to transform your business...

Most people think failing means you're doing something wrong. It doesn't... It means you're doing something hard. And if you're goal is to build a 10, 20, 50, or $100 million company, or to become someone who actually changes the world, you're going to fail. A lot. And if you feel stuck, like you're behind, or like your past is proof you'll never get there, then this will help you flip that script, and scale FAR faster. So let's get into this...

In business you want to make sure that every year, if not every quarter or every month, that your revenue is going up. Because everything else that allows you to run your business is becoming more costly, whether that's your cost of doing business, or your cost of the goods and services that you sell. EVERYTHING keeps becoming more expensive, but as entrepreneurs you often don't see those cost increases, until 2-3 or 4 years go by, and now you look at your P&L and you see that you're expenses are eating away your margin. Watch now and see why you always have to focus on an increase of both revenue and profit, and how to do it.

In this I'll show you exactly how most businesses are using AI in a way that kills long-term growth, and the 10 things you need to stop doing with AI, even if your team, or your vendors, are telling you it's better… Because your team, and your vendors, are always looking for ways to reduce their workload, not improve YOUR bottom line. What I'm about to show you comes from thousands of hours of testing in my companies… …with concrete metrics and AB testing that shows where AI is kicking ass, and where it's costing us sales and retention, potentially to the tune of MILLIONS of dollars. So tune in to see this now, and how it applies to YOU.

Don't allow people to BS you or to get you to do things because of their enthusiasm or because of their emotions. Con artists use their emotions, to get you emotional. People who always seem emotional, whether that's happy, sad, excited, needy or whatever, are anchors in your life. They literally leach off of you, and they make you feel like you're lucky to be part of their life. But there's a way to see through this in anyone… So watch now to see that way, and how you can use it to drive success in your life...

No matter what size your business is right now, hiring one great employee can grow your company's bottom line faster than almost any other task you could focus on. But most businesses mess this up because they either… Put an enormous amount of time and money into attracting and training people the wrong way. Or they think hiring the right people takes so much time and money that they do the absolute minimum just to get by, like putting ads online, and interviewing a bunch of candidates, and then just hiring the best from that small group of applicants. Both can work, but one's very costly and one's way too risky. Watch now and see the bullet points we follow to hire and develop strong, motivated, loyal teams inside of each of my companies.

To grow a business, you have to remember: vendors are tools. We can use them during times of growth when we don't have enough employees. But to grow an 8- or 9-figure business, we need to surround ourselves with people who will go to war with us and stick with us when times get tough because they see the big picture. Those people stay late Support the rest of the team Care more about the customers and the company brand than they do about a single sale. Our responsibility as founders is to grow — in an honest, ethical, moral, and legal way. Every year, if not every quarter or every month. So watch now and see how do that, and how do it in the most efficient way possible...
