Because when you have the right business model, when you have a business model that allows you to serve people and help people, regardless of where you're at, regardless of what time of the day it is, what time of the year it is that you are able to help people 24 hours a day, seven days a week, without you having to physically be in front of them, you can do this. It is a Monday. I am doing this podcast. You're hearing this more than likely on Tuesday. I'm doing this on a Monday. I spent the entire day with them. I took them out on the water, we went to a restaurant, we broke bread, we fellowshipped, we enjoyed each other. And guess what? We weren't thinking about money, didn't have to worry about that, because we knew that we were going to make money regardless.
Greg Todd [00:00:42]:
This is Secrets for Success. Welcome to the Secrets for Success podcast. I'm your host, Greg Todd. Thank you as always for joining me, my friends. This is Marine GT I. And on my dock right now, just finished cleaning up after hosting six of my clients for an event, an event that they actually won because they executed out one of the business models that I talk about. They were actually affiliates for one of my programs. I did a challenge probably about a year, year and a half ago, and there's a group that were the top affiliates for one event.
Greg Todd [00:01:26]:
And then in 2024, I did another event, and we had affiliates that were the top affiliates for that event that they won. Basically three days of working with me, and I've been just treating them to. To some fun times together, working on their businesses, but also enjoying life. And, you know, here's the thing that I want to share with you guys. So I just took them out on the water and we went to a restaurant that's maybe about two miles from here or something like that. And there was something that I shared with the group at the restaurant, and that was about six years ago. Six years ago, I started my first. I don't call it mastermind, but my first group of clients that.
Greg Todd [00:02:14]:
That wanted more than just a program, wanted more than just six weeks or eight weeks or 10 weeks of working with me. They actually said, look, look, I need help, I need direction, and I want to work with you for an entire year. Now, at the time, there's a lot of names that, if I told you the names, you probably recognize those names as people that have. Have gone on to do some pretty cool things in the healthcare space. Right? You know, a good chunk of them have. And I remember at that time, they were Pretty much all of them were still working for someone. They wanted to build a business, but they were in that transition phase, and they wanted to happen sooner rather than later, so. So they hired me to work with them for a year.
Greg Todd [00:02:59]:
And I remember saying to them, you know, guys, I think one day we're going to be able to do these events. Not on weekends. Like, right now, we have to do it on weekends, because you don't have a choice. Like, you've got to work at your job. And on the weekends is when you can start to work on, you know, building that next phase of your life, your success, your career path. And I remember them just looking at me kind of bewildered, perplexed, really. I don't know about that. And.
Greg Todd [00:03:33]:
And here we are. You know, I think I've heard Tony Robbins say it like this, that we overestimate what we can do in a year, but we underestimate what we can do in 10. I don't know if it was from him or he took it from somebody else, but all I know is that it really is true. Because here we are, you know, seven years later, nearly eight years later, and I'm working with the majority of my clients in a week. Why? Why is that such a big deal? Why am I saying that to you? Because when you have the right business model, when you have a business model that allows you to serve people and help people, regardless of where you're at, regardless of what time of the day it is, what time of the year it is that you are able to help people 24 hours a day, seven days a week, without you having to physically be in front of them, you can do this. It is a Monday. I am doing this podcast. You're hearing this more than likely on Tuesday.
Greg Todd [00:04:28]:
I'm doing this on a Monday. I spent the entire day with them. I took them out on the water. We went to a restaurant, we broke bread, we fellowshiped. We enjoyed each other. And guess what? We weren't thinking about money. Didn't have to worry about that, because we knew that we were going to make money regardless. And I'm just thinking of the people that were there.
Greg Todd [00:04:46]:
One person is helping people that have scoliosis. One person is helping runners. One is helping skiers. One is helping people build out their blogs. One is helping other physical therapists and occupational therapists document better and more efficiently. There are so many different groups of people. Whether it's working with patients, working with other colleagues, it doesn't matter. The reality is that they all have this in common.
Greg Todd [00:05:17]:
They were using one of the business models that I implore every single one of you to use. They were using either affiliate, they've been using info business models, they've been using memberships, they've been using agencies, they have been. If they're treating, they're doing solutions based offers. That's it. And I'm telling you all right now, we are living in a world where the traditional business model cannot work anymore. It not only is it going to not work for you, nobody wants to work for you anymore. You realize like nobody wants to work at your place of establishment. Not because you're a terrible person, because your business model sucks.
Greg Todd [00:05:52]:
Your business model is not a model where people can actually afford their rent. They can't have the dream of home ownership. They can't have the dream of paying off their debt in three to five years. It doesn't exist in the current business model that they taught us in school. We were talking about that on the way back and, and I'm telling you that because this year, like, we must change business models. And that's the reason why I'm actually going to be doing my five day coaching event. It's called the Invincible Challenge. The event's free.
Greg Todd [00:06:24]:
It's just to teach you the business models, how you can put it into play with what you're currently doing. You can listen to it for free every single day. I'll go for about an hour to an hour and a half every day and just listen to it and apply the stuff. Now if you want to upgrade and you want to pay to get individually coached by me after each day sessions, then, then fantastic, go ahead and do that. You'll have the opportunity to do that. But even if you don't want to do that, it's fine. But gosh man, please set yourself up to not hate what it is that you do. And I was, you know, sharing with them that every single year, even with these amazing business models, I still tweak things so that I can continue to enjoy my work.
Greg Todd [00:07:04]:
I can continue to tweak things every single year so that I can enjoy my work. Because it's getting easier and easier and easier every single year for us to be successful now there might be more distractions, maybe that makes it a little bit harder. But there's never been a time that the little guy and the little gal like me and you can win. And gosh, man, I just want you guys to get it. Anyways, that's all I got for today's podcast. On Thursday, there's gonna be a really special one. So make sure you tune in for Thursday's podcast. It's gonna be really awesome.
Greg Todd [00:07:36]:
And. And I think you're gonna be really inspired by the guests that I have on a Thursday. But anyways, that's what I want you all to do. Just create a business model that is something that can actually get you to where you want to go, to the dreams and aspirations that you have for yourself, for your family, for your future family.
