Today I have the pleasure of speaking to the delightful Sam Matheson, a genius in social circle networking who even with little experience used his skills to land a marketing job for the international fitness organisation F45 Training.

Sam is a formerly the number 1 dating coach in Australia who worked for one of the elite dating companies in the world. He also went to college for golf and, with 25 years of experience, he was an elite amateur on track to becoming a professional golfer. Additionally, he has worked in the drop shipping and e-commerce space and, despite the global pandemic, has created a strong social circle and connected with some of the highest status individuals in the Gold Coast.

In this candid and informative episode, we discuss Sam's life learnings from entrepreneurship, business, networking, and hustling.

In this episode you will learn about:

• The surprising and reciprocal benefits of providing value to others
• Reframing your negative experiences to turn them into positive lessons
• Intelligent social circle dynamics to connect with high value individuals
• Sam's 3 important rules for success, including a bonus trick on effective eye contact

Favourite quotes:

• "For all of my business partners that I've ever had, I always had a relationship or a friendship with them before anything else. That's a key thing."
• "I use social media as a tool. We forget the first word of social media, which is to be social on it. Nowadays it's all about the media and the content."

Mentioned in this episode:

• Book - Give and Take, by Adam Grant
• Book - The Power of Now, by Eckhart Tolle
• Movie - Billionaire Boys Club (2018)
