Why Dave Decided to talk to James Smiley: James reached out to Dave recently and asked if he could do this second podcast with him because of all the things he’s had the opportunity he’s been accomplishing. The best part about it all is that most of what he wants to talk about is the little things everybody easily forgets that makes the biggest difference. Networking happens to be one of those things. James has found he does better than most people because of the QUALITY of the relationships he builds through something he’s always focused on: contribution. Tips and Tricks for You and Your Business: (2:48) The systems for high leverage (4:10) “Contribute” from James Smiley’s perspective (6:30) The Highest Leverage Move comes from using other people with contribution in mind (10:54) James Funnel Hacked his way onto Russell’s radar. Who’s radar do you want to find yourself on? (12:44) Your webpage should highlight exactly what your dream client is looking for, get those stats on there. (15:02) Selling Kevin Harrington when he only gives you 11 minutes (16:20) Network to Network (19:00) Who’s the gatekeeper to your networking (21:38) Network with those you know you are able to contribute to (24:54) Understand how the person you want to meet with thinks (28:00) The Long-Term Play Quotable Moments: (2:22) “What I’ve noticed through life, whether it’s through working with sales, working with sales teams, or helping solopreneurs is there’s a way to create leverage, extremely high leverage,  and it’s a system.” (6:54) “So you can see, if you don’t start thinking about the word ‘contribute’ but you start thinking about using other people’s platform or money, the whole system doesn’t work.” (13:24) “There’s a lot of little things like that which I started doing. And you know you never really know if anybody is seeing it, but chances are if you’re doing the right thing they’re going to take a peak at you.” (16:10) “‘I’ve seen your videos and I like it’, those little phrases show me that my little personal branding and marketing out there synergized with him. So it allowed the conversation to move forward because he had more trust with me.” (20:57) “You have to be on point, like when they look at your stuff would they think ‘James is one of us’?” (22:48) “Networking to network is incredibly huge, especially if you figure out how do I honestly contribute” (30:07) “If you contribute to people in the right way, the relationships and all the things that happen, you can take over your Dream 100 in a way that you never thought possible.” Other Tidbits: A quote from our dear James Smiley, “IF YOU’RE NOT USING CLICKFUNNELS, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!?” If your main goal is to make money off of somebody and not improve their lives, business, relationships, health, etc. then they’re going to find out. Once they find out, they’ll find somebody else sooner or later. Tony Robbins, Russell Brunson, James Smiley, and all these other people have 24 hours in their day just like the rest of us. What they’ve done differently though is they’ve found out how to leverage their time to “hockey stick” up. Get the numbers to make yourself “one of us”. You must contribute sincerely for any form of networking to have a lasting effect.
