Growth to Freedom™ - Transform Your Life, Business, and Relationships with Clarity, Confidence, and Direction

The Growth to Freedom™ Show helps you transform your life in business and in relationships. It’s a fresh mix of strategy, resources, and entertainment that guides you to create the personal and business breakthroughs you need. Your success and freedom will only grow to the extent you do, and The Growth to Freedom™ Show will help you find clarity, confidence, and direction. Two weeks after my son was born in 2007, I found myself in a hospital for four days with a serious heart problem. The fact is, I had let my health go to the extent that my body gave out. It was a major wakeup call. That experience opened a new door of awareness for me. I came to realize that if I wanted something different, I needed to do something different. If I wanted something better, I needed to do it better. We’re living at one of the most exciting times in history and I believe you can have freedom on your terms. You can have it all, if you’re willing to take the necessary steps. It’s not easy. I’ve certainly made my share of mistakes and I want to help you avoid those on your own journey. This show was born as part of my process and was inspired by Joe Polish, Genius Network, and many mentors I’m fortunate to call friends. It doesn’t matter what your background is or where you’ve been: It only matters that you want to grow. Whatever your definition of success, I will challenge, guide, and connect you to some of the best leaders and experts in the world today. Now is your time - you deserve it! The catalyst for greatness is inside of you, and it starts now with Growth to Freedom!

Would you like to know how to package and present yourself or your offer to generate more leads, more sales, and more profits?

On this episode of Growth to Freedom that’s exactly what I’m going to show you. Once you see how simple it is, you’re going to be surprised that more people, including you, haven’t been doing this all along. It’s not a difficult process - it only takes 15 minutes of brainstorming with a pencil and paper - but it will yield long term results if you take it seriously and do the work.

The process I’m going to describe today begins with a series of simple questions that reveal the danger, needs, and desires of your ideal client.

These questions are designed to get you inside the head of that ideal client, the one who needs exactly what it is you have to offer. When you’re able to understand what they think about the problems, pains, and passions that drive them toward a solution like the one you offer, you’ll begin to see exactly what you need to say, how you need to approach them, and what you need to offer to generate the sale.

Today’s show will give you a road map that shows you the steps: How to position yourself and your product or service, how to communicate the value you offer, how to phrase your call to action, how to overcome objections, and how to ask for and get the sale.

It’s amazing what a few pointed questions can do, but you’re only going to see the results I’m promising if you take the time to actually do what I’m sharing with you: Get your pencil and paper, sit down, and walk yourself through these questions.

 

Here’s a glimpse of what you’ll get in this segment:

  • [0:31] How to get to the core of your clients desires;
  • [3:00] Dan Sullivan’s framework: The problem is not the problem, it’s how you think about the problem;
  • [3:20] The questions you need to ask yourself (and I didn’t come up with these) - for greater clarity, productivity, and conversions;
  • [4:15] Rethinking what you offer? (HINT: It’s not what you think it is);
  • [5:22] How to create Exponential Outcomes: What is it going to do for your clients overall?
  • [6:43] How to read your clients minds (market research);
  • [9:08] Identify your ideal client’s top 3 desires (and how you can uniquely fulfill it);
  • [10:15] What are the biggest reasons why your ideal client wants a solution?
  • [11:22] How to anticipate your client’s reason(s) for not buying - and convert more sales;
  • [13:00] Why a percentage of the people listening will not take action;
  • [14:00] How to craft your presentation in a compelling way;
  • [16:29] Why you need to come up with a “step” approach to your solution;
  • [17:23] The importance of a great call to action;
  • [19:08] If you do nothing, you’ll get nothing. How to get people to take action!
  • And more…

What if I told you that I’ve got a guaranteed way for you to lead and grow rich?

That’s the kind of statement that makes your skeptic radar go on full alert, doesn’t it? I’m going to tell you how to do exactly that in this episode. It’s not hype. It’s not wishful thinking. It’s not the typical goal-setting and productivity approach that you normally hear.

It’s all about “state”. It’s about knowing how to determine and regulate your own internal state of being and how to be a “state inducer” for others. Even if you only take one of the principles covered in this episode, you’re going to see a way to have a bigger impact, significance, and contribution.

What do I mean by determining your “state?”

We all have an internal state of being, a default attitude or mindset. It’s what dictates the way we live, the things we do, and how we handle the situations and challenges that life throws at us. And The great news is that no one gets to determine what that inner state is.

You get to be the CEO of you. You get to decide how you are going to think about and approach life. Your past impacts it for sure but it doesn’t have to be the deciding factor. You can take steps to overcome the limitations of your past and set a new course that will change the destiny of your life and increase the impact you can have in the world.

In this episode, you’ll discover how to develop your peak state and how to stay on track - even when it’s not easy from now on… and how you can Lead and Grow Rich.

Make sure to listen until the end, because on this episode of Growth to Freedom, there’s a very practical framework I provide and give you that you can install in your life - starting today.

 

Here’s a glimpse of what you’ll learn in this show:

  • [0:33] The reason to lead;
  • [1:00] How to lead and grow rich;
  • [2:20] Success depends on state...your inner state;
  • [3:40] Getting clear on what you want - what state are you in right now? [5:00] How to overcome failure;
  • [7:00] Does failure derail you or set you up for success? (The choice is yours);
  • [10:25] What would have to happen for you to be the best leader you can be?
  • [13:30] The definition of leadership;
  • [16:54] What is a state inducer;
  • [20:00] An exercise for you to determine your non-negotiable leadership qualities;
  • And more...

How could your life change if you had a secondary passive income coming in every month?

What would it mean to you if you could make enough money through your business efforts to make a real difference in the world?

Today’s guest, Matt Miller, has built his business on the idea that everyone needs a side income stream that enables them to move their life to the next level. He’s the owner and leader behind School Spirit Vending, a vending company that has created the dream life Matt has always wanted and is also bringing about powerful change in the educational system in the US...by empowering schools to effectively raise funds for much needed resources, materials, and programs. Matt’s a down to earth guy who’s got a great opportunity to share with you, so be sure you listen to this episode of Growth to Freedom.

Leaving the Air Force and blazing a new trail, Matt Miller wasn’t sure what he would do.

But he knew that he didn’t want to be in another situation where someone was always telling him what to do. Deep inside was a desire for freedom, a desire to chart his own course and live a life of freedom and independence. After selling products online through eBay and Amazon for years, Matt believed that there had to be a better way. When a friend at church mentioned vending machines, Matt was all ears. He figured the machines did most of the selling once they were in place, and that was all it took to peak his interest.

The rest is history. Matt has now built his own company, School Spirit Vending, centered around the idea of passive income providing security, flexibility, and wealth, coupled with a belief that he has been placed on the planet to make a difference.

And more than all of that, Matt is excited that his business model is transferable, which means that he’s able to help other families find the lifestyle of freedom and impact that he’s found through vending opportunities. On this episode of Growth to Freedom Matt shares how a vending business could be the exact source of income many families are looking for, and provides a way for you to get a free copy of his book, “Live Your Dreams” that outlines the opportunity and impact a vending business can provide.

 

Here’s a glimpse of what you’ll learn in this show:

  • [0:31] Who is Matt Miller?
  • [3:11] How to move from here to there;
  • [6:50] Some of the best leadership traits Matt learned in the military;
  • [13:01] Why Matt didn’t take the typical path of becoming an airline pilot after the air force;
  • [16:48] Matt’s biggest frustration with the entrepreneurial journey;
  • [19:16] The insight from Warren Buffett: Delayed Gratification;
  • [20:51] Boundaries and systems for maximum productivity;
  • [25:40] How to create a blueprint to hit and achieve your goals;
  • [31:55] What Matt was known as in High School;
  • [32:30] The power of Gratitude;
  • [33:40] The key strategies Matt wants to share with his children;
  • And much more...
