You know the feeling you get when you’re surrounded by your friends and family?
Or when you’re in a big crowd of fans cheering on the same team?
It’s a sort of happiness, comfort, support, and understanding, right?
Well, at least for me it is.
When you’re with your people, there’s a collective energy that’s hard to describe.
I’m Nick and I have a confession. When I recorded this episode with Alex Barker from AlexBarker.org (The Leadership Dojo podcast), I had never been in any sort of formal mastermind group. Listen to the collective gasp in my blogger/podcaster/entrepreneur-type circles, that information is blasphemy! It’s totally my fault. Masterminds are something I see huge … Read more
Earlier this year, Bryn and I switched cell phone providers from Verizon to Ting.
Our bill last month was $59 for 2 iPhones, less than half what we were paying at Verizon.
Over the course of the year, we’ll save $804 or more.
(Our average Verizon bill in 2013 was $126.26.)
So what’s Ting?
It’s OK, I’d never heard of them either.
In Episode 39 of The Side Hustle Show, I’m joined by Mike Newton from HackingPhotography.com.
We discuss how to make a name for yourself in any business, how to score corporate clients (and why you’d want to), and how to generate passive income streams from a service business.
What’s the most important skill for entrepreneurs?
Ask a dozen people and you’ll probably get a dozen answers.
Sales is a popular response. After all, if an entrepreneur can’t sell customers on his product, team members on the vision, or investors on the potential, the business won’t go anywhere.
Hiring is considered another critical skill. Getting the right people on the bus, in Good to Great speak.
Melissa Witmer runs UltyResults.com, a strength and conditioning membership site for ultimate frisbee players that generates a full-time income. In episode 36 of The Side Hustle Show, learn how she took the concept from idea to side hustle to full-time business and how can replicate her success.
A big thank you to David from ThePowerofPartTime.tv for the introduction!
As adults (gasp), we face dozens of questions everyday:
What should I wear?
What should I have for breakfast?
What route should I take to work?
What should I listen to on the way? (hint: try a podcast)
Most of these questions are pretty small and trivial. The answer you choose probably won’t have any lasting long-term impact on your life.
I mean, Cheerios vs. toast, not exactly a game-changer.
But what about the deeper questions?
In episode 35 of The Side Hustle Show, I learn how Daniel DiPiazza from Rich20Something.com went from earning $18 an hour to $1000 an hour using his “Marsupial Method” for side hustle businesses.
It sounds hype-y, but it happened. Pretty crazy stuff, with parallels you can takeaway and apply to your own biz.
In episode 34 of The Side Hustle Show, fellow side hustler Ryan Cote from WPAmplify.com discusses how he’s built his part-time service business into a high-value recurring-revenue machine.
We talk scoring customers, pricing, delivering the goods, retention, and much more.
What work did you do yesterday? The day before?
Up until a month ago, I wouldn’t have had a good answer for you.
But now, I’m keeping track of what I get done each day, and it feels great. I first learned about this little mindset/productivity/work hack from Ari Meisel. (Remember Ari from The Side Hustle Show?).
He recommended an automated service called I Done This.
