But everything changed for me when I discovered ONE thing during my business journey. Listen to how I handled and overcame feeling like I was in “The Loneliest Job In The World”. On today’s episode Russell talks about why being an entrepreneur is the loneliest job in the world. Here are some of the awesome things you will hear in this episode: Why it’s hard to find support and others like you when you first get into the business of being an entrepreneur. Why going to events made it easier for Russell to connect with others like him, and to help him find vendors to do the things he couldn’t. And why it’s so important to go to Funnel Hacking Live, especially when you are first getting started, and why it’s one of the best events in marketing ever. So listen here to find out why you need to attend events, and how you can get your tickets to Funnel Hacking Live. ---Transcript--- Good morning everybody, this is Russell Brunson and we’re about to start a Marketing Secrets podcast episode. I’m heading to the airport, I almost just got in a wreck, literally live on radio. But here we go, let’s have some fun. Alright everybody, so I’m heading to the airport. I’m about to go do a secret meeting, there’s ten people who got invited to this secret meeting, and I’m not allowed to say anything about it. Is that crazy? I’m the worst secret keeper in the world. People are like, “Hey Russell, can you keep a secret?” No, why would you tell me? I’ve written two books that literally all they are is me sharing every secret I’ve ever heard my whole life. So don’t trust me with secrets, and this is killing me. But I’m going to tell you everything I’m allowed to tell you without getting in trouble. So Brendan Burchard set this whole thing up, I wonder if I’ll get in trouble for that? Crap. Anyway, he messaged a bunch of people and he’s like, “This is a secret meeting of a bunch of titans of different industries, all moving together to plan world domination.” It’s kind of like the illuminati I think, or maybe the Bilderberg group, or I don’t know. Something cool or ninja like that, maybe not. Anyway, so I’m meeting all these cool people and I’m like the internet, software nerd dude who is coming and then there’s all these other legit people who are coming. One of them is like a multibillion dollar a year supplement company, there’s …..I can’t tell, I’m going to be in trouble. Anyway, I’m excited. I’m heading there right now, to the airport to go fly out and hang out with those dudes for a couple of days. And from there I’m flying to Dana Derricks Dream 100 Conference. Dana did me a little favor last year when we were doing the viral video launch, we redid the sales page for Clickfunnels and he flew in and spent a week, actually, he didn’t fly in, he’s scared of planes. He literally found a dude who is like a retired truck driver and paid the guy to drive him to Boise, which is I don’t know, a 30 hour drive. So then he sat in the back of the car and worked on stuff while this dude just drove him, which is insanely cool. Anyway, I love Dana, he learned how to fly since then and he was like, “Oh my gosh, this is way faster and easier.” But a year ago he was scared of airplanes. So he drove to Boise, spent a week with me working on the sales letter, got me in overalls, doing the whole goat dance thing, and it was funny. And in exchange he wanted me to speak at his event this year, which is now next week. So I’m flying out there, talking about some cool things. His whole thing is about the Dream 100, which is exciting. And I’ve been working on the Traffic Secrets book which is coming out, and there’s a whole foundational layer of Dream 100 and how it ties into all the different marketing channels, and I’m going to be sharing that for the first time, live onstage, which I’m excited for. It’s kind of me testing out the concepts from the book and getting people’s feedback for the first time. So it’ll be fun. I’m looking forward to that. So that’s what’s happ
