To build a thriving business, you need to show you really understand the people your business serves. Your approach, your attitude, your finesse – all the things that make you unique – are what bring you your clients. I’m dedicated to helping you find your way to show your brilliance, increase your impact and get the results you want – with business video marketing. Brad Powell, & after a decade of making business video, I‘ve found 10 simple strategies to win over any audience & attract your ideal clients We, humans, are shy creatures… We’re often afraid to reveal ourselves. It doesn’t matter how big your passion or how great your vision for making positive change, you can still struggle with sharing yourself with the world at large. And if you’re not getting your message to the world – you end up working way too hard and not making enough money. I’m Brad Powell and I’m a business coach & videographer. I teach entrepreneurs and creative professionals how to be daring and reveal their story so that they connect with the right crowd – and transform their business. With a playful “let’s-not-take-ourselves-too-seriously” approach that I learned from improv theater, I can help you get used to telling your story, get comfortable in front of a camera and psyched about becoming highly visible. As a former Outward Bound Program Director and National Geographic contractor, I developed Story Power Strategy™ to tap into your sense of adventure and help you become bold and daring when you need to be – like when you’re facing your audience. Not only will we make a compelling video together, but I’ll help you craft your core message, and your own narrative style, that represents you and your business vision. Your Story Power Strategy™ will help you win over any audience – whether you’re in front of a large crowd or simply one-on-one networking.

Founder Breanne Dyck, MNIB Consulting: a boutique consultancy helping owners scale their online training business Here’s the Deal. Great work doesn’t happen by accident. That’s why you work so hard. It’s why you pour yourself into your work, shedding blood, sweat and tears – sometimes literally – to make sure your business is world-class. That drive for excellence has got you to where you are today, and yet that little voice in the back of your head won’t shut up: “What if this time, my best isn’t good enough?” But that’s not an option. People are paying attention now, and you can’t let them down. Your customers want more, and they want you to give it to them. This is not the time to back down … … IT’S THE TIME TO DOUBLE DOWN. That’s how you scale to reach even more people. That’s how you create the next big thing that will quantum leap your business forward. That’s how you put together your first (or next) million dollar product that gets amazing results, too. And it’s also how you will start having less of you in the business, too. Think about it: More time. More freedom. More scale. More impact. Not to mention, increased retention, referrals and repeat buyers – the 3Rs of world-class online training companies. Ignite your Passion, Accelerate in your path, and Annihilate your limiting beliefs about going PRO ALL kinds of Marketing, affectionately called Socrates Level Marketing here.

JP Sears says you can. A comedian who also runs his own serious life coaching and 'emotional healing' business. Yes, really. He's amusing and confusing millions of people around the world, but internet sensation JP Sears likes it that way An emotional healing coach, international teacher, world traveler, and curious student of life. My work is intended to empower people to empower themselves to live more meaningful lives. I run a very busy one-on-one client practice (most sessions are via skype) where I’m fortunate enough to work with people every day on healing their hearts, resolving self-sabotage, and stepping into their true power. I also lead retreats around the world on different healing and personal empowerment themes for like minded and like hearted people to come together and learn, grow, and heal. I also make videos. I’m very active on my YouTube channel, where I regularly release videos to help people help themselves. I also make comedy videos known as my 'Ultra Spiritual' series. Aside from the entertainment value of these humorous videos, they also carry important underlying messages (at least I think so, but I’m biased because they’re my videos). And if the formal credential side of things is important to you, I hold certification as a Holistic Coach Advanced Practitioner through the Holistic Coaching Institute in Columbus, OH. I also served as a faculty member for the C.H.E.K. Institute from 2006-2013. Most importantly, I have red hair, blue eyes, a caring heart, and a warped sense of humor.

Isabel regularly speaks at universities and colleges throughout the country where she shares her inspiring and thought-provoking message on topics like "There is Nothing Wrong With You", "The Strength of Emotional Leadership", "Diversity" and "Emotions - Your Powerful Road Map for Life" As a young girl, I remember telling my parents that sometimes I’d feel as I can leave my body and experience the world from a bird’s eye perspective. Sometimes I’d feel crazy for feeling other people’s pain and sometimes I had visions that not many took seriously – maybe not even me. This is the emotional world of a child that is highly intuitive and over time forgets that any of those gifts ever existed, as it happens with so many of us. We lose the ability to tune in with ourselves on a deep level to experience guidance and direction to living a purposeful and fulfilling life and therefore our calling. My name is Isabel Hundt and I am a certified Vision & Transformation Coach, Speaker, Ambassador of Global Presence Leadership, Empath-Warrior™, World-Visionary and Author of my book The Power of Faith-Driven Success – A Journey toward Living Your Dream by 30 (www.faithdrivensuccess.com). Throughout my journey of re-discovering who I truly am and what God has called me to bring to this world, I learned what it means: to live by faith. to step into my own inner power and to live fully to use my gifts to serve others yet have a strong and firm relationship within myself and therefore with the Divine who guides and leads me to BE myself no matter my circumstances to embrace life to be and live life as an Empath-Warrior™ to access my intuition and yet protect myself from over-stimulation and toxins that are being thrown at me from a broken world to live a purpose-driven instead of a profit- and attention-driven life Today, I combine the knowledge of Sociology, Psychology and Neuroscience with aspects of Emotional Intelligence, Reiki and quantum physics. I have successfully coached and educated individuals from all over the world and speak at universities and conferences throughout the country where I share my inspiring and thought-provoking message on topics like “Finding your Purpose and Place in this World”, “Building Successful Relationships”, “Diversity”, “Emotions”. “Emotional Disconnect vs. Spiritual Disconnect”, “Language of Success” and other related topics. My journey is unique, just like yours, yet we all have one thing in common: We are intuitive, spiritual human beings who can change the world to the better by understanding our emotions and learning how to use whatever we feel effectively to move forward empowered, to experience success and to live the dream God has put on our hearts since the time each one of us was born. But the most important about my life, is that I am a proud and devoted Christ follower, community leader, wife and mother to our son, Jonah.

Interviewed by Ioana Denise Garrett of Success Stalkers Radio! BOOM! Socrates Zayas affectionately called DocSoc, the Founder of SocTalks.com and Author of Socrates Level Marketing: Ignite Passion. Accelerate Your Journey NOW. Annihilate Limiting Beliefs and The BOOM! Blog. A brief look at me since I'll be in your ear weekly for about 30 minutes. I was Born in Cuba, immigrated with my parents as a child. I grew up in a single-parent household. My mother working 2 and 3 jobs at times, made sure I was lacking nothing; always clean, ironed, well mannered, and educated. I'm a proud former Marine, trained to be a helicopter mechanic. So to my Marine Corps brothers… Semper Fidelis! As a civilian, I became a geneticist. Although I had fun it didn't pay me enough to remain in the industry. I was forced to leave that career to one more lucrative, corporate IT, and gave it 13 years! After some life changing events they were done with me, they simply fired me, no explanations, just a letter, and a check. Some of you may know how it feels living through the indignation, the embarrassment and realization of the lie. Because of that pain, because I saw all my possessions stripped, taken by the banks who didn't care about my circumstances because I felt I failed my kids, my wife, my parents. You may know what being a mess feels like. I felt I didn't have any time to give them, definitely didn't have money to do much of anything, and I was 80lbs overweight. I looked at Multi-Level Marketing as a model for true Financial Freedoms. My focus was on three things: More TIME. More MONEY. More HEALTH. I have been successful in ALL THREE using the proven marketing fundamentals, SocTalks shares these with you, I call them Socrates Level Marketing®. You don't have to continue living the lie, or even wonder how to begin.

Terry GremauxBOOM! Let’s get this started… Today on SocTalks we have a guy who nobody thought would ever be successful working for himself.. This guest started way back in 2006 but didn’t get going till 2013! He spent 7 years of absolute misery, and frustration. 9 companies, and man he had all the excuses like this is the wrong upline, this product is not for me, the system is not right, I mean the list goes on and on… You might know someone like that right? In 2013 he got fed up being fed up and was against a rock and a hard place with 20 bucks in his pocket and 2 months behind in every bill he had! He is here today because it’s time to pass it forward because as you hear me say all the time, the struggle is real, but the hustle is undeniably the antidote. So from struggling dude making 30k a year he has become a top recruiter in my primary Network Marketing company, earned a company car, been able to start working for himself full-time, created a coaching business, and had his first 30K week a little while ago. Not bad for getting serious and listening to a mentor.Who are we talking about? His name Terry GremauxSo, Terry Gremaux Are you ready to Ignite passions, Accelerate journeys and Annihilate Limiting Beliefs?

SocTalks: Episode 000 Welcome to SocTalks where inspiring authors, speakers and masterminds share their stories with you. Let their stories Ignite your passion, accelerate you on your path, and annihilate your limiting beliefs. Now…. Here’s your host for SocTalks.com….. Socrates Zayas! BOOM! Thank you so much for joining me today, I’m sure your 1st question will likely go along the lines of WHAT, IS, THIS, PODCAST, ABOUT? Before I go into that… I want to address 3 things 1) Who I am since I am going to literally be in your ear for about 30 minutes each week, 2) Address your 1st question and 3) Pledge to only provide quality programing with quality guests and actionable content. So who is in your ear right now? I’m your Host, Socrates Zayas, Born in Cuba, in a borough called Marianao, I immigrated to the United States at the age of 6 after a failed attempt at age 3 due to mumps. I grew up moving from city to city in the United States. I went from New Orleans, LA., to Newark NJ, then I hopped around all 5 boroughs of THE BIG APPLE ultimately to end up in the Sunshine State of Florida. For all intense and purpose I am the only son of my Mother, and the 7th son out of 16 of my Father. My mother raised me on her own and did so working 2 and as many as 3 jobs as times. In Cuba, my mother was a Registered Nurse, here she held the fort down by sewing, working in a dry cleaners, and odd jobs until she was able to work her way back into health care. She made sure I was always clean, ironed, well mannered, and educated. At the age of 18 I entered the Marine Corps. I was trained to be a helicopter Mechanic, on really cool attack ships known as the AH-1W SuperCobras, there were only 91 of these bad boys EVER commissioned! So for my Marine Corps Bros… Semper FI! After I left the corps I returned to school became a BioChemist working on infectious disease and genetics, later changing my career to one that paid a little bit better, actually about 3 times as much, I went into corporate IT, and gave them 13 years of my life during the boom enjoying 6 figure paychecks and options galore. When they were done with me they simply discarded me, no pat on back, no explanations, just a letter and a check. Since I didn’t see it happening it was a horrible blow resulting in loss of most of our possessions, our house, our cars, we even had to sell many things in garage sales. We lived off of borrowed monies from in-laws and it was and remains a very embarrassing time for my family. Being an entrepreneur seemed a logical next progression, but what to do? First attempt, in direct sales marketing, but that wasn’t me, then tried securing a franchise and despite my charisma securing that much cash up front, 15% possible return 3 years down the road seemed insane, so retail marketing wasn’t for me either. Ultimately, in 2005 I was introduced to MLM, where I’ve enjoyed success and comradeship similar to that of being back in the USMC. I am a Father: of 5, 3 biological 2 that I helped raise, 1 German shepherd, 1 Dessert Dragon, and I am a Husband. I have taught at local Educational institutions in Florida, and sat as the Department Chair Of Everglades University. I am an author, a podcaster, speaker, motivator and I hold a PhD, a Masters, and Bachelors in Biology and Chemistry. There you have it, Me! Also known affectionately by my colleagues as DocSoc. That should answer part 1. Now, your question? To start off, The SocTalks Podcast will disprove the belief that MLM/NM is not a real or viable choice for an entrepreneur. Furthermore, this belief is seeded in a misunderstanding of what it really means to be in this industry. The goal of this SocTalks is to shine a light on the fear created by the unknown in MLM and NETWORK MARKETING. In fact, I liken it to the boogie man in the closet or underneath the bed, lurking in the shadow of traditional MARKETING mindsets. My vision is that each week we sit down and chat with successful Authors, Speakers, and Masterminds, which I believe to be Marketing Leaders and some of the brightest minds among us today. We’re also going to listen to and follow the journey of 2 groups using the fundamentals of what I affectionately call Socrates Level Marketing in a monthly bonus PodCast! Now think about it, virtually everybody you’ll hear from on this podcast charge several hundreds if not several thousands of dollars an hour for their consulting time and expertise, but you and I will get their time for FREE! I’m not saying this to impress you but to impress upon you how valuable this will be in your arsenal of getting out of your situation today! Listen, you know it, I know it Failure is a part of every single entrepreneur’s journey, it’s a really big deal… SocTalks is all about the entire story, the BIG picture, and I pledge that my guests and I will dive into every single episode with their biggest failures. We will dig and prod and hopefully learn how to avoid some of those potholes. It’ll be like mining their brains for nuggets, gold nuggets! Of course after we pass out some tissue I’ll take us to the other spectrum and in story format again have them share that AHHA moment, that point where they realized that this is in effect their most viable choice as an entrepreneur. We will walk through the steps they followed at that point, and hopefully that will resonate with you so that you can get your MOJO kick started, get those wheels moving and possibly light that lightbulb for you. Finally, I will ask a series of 5 questions that I call the SocTalk Showdown where I quick draw the questions and the guest shoots out first answers that pop into their minds. Fun times really… Concluding with sharing a little about any of the guest’s releases or shows. Now if you’re not currently reading a great deal of personal development, but you acknowledge the value of leveraging leaders in this business, and feel that you should be doing more with your journey to stretch yourself. I say let this Podcast serve as an encouragement to you to make that journey less painful, sort of a cliff note type experience loaded with nuggets and actionable items to use TODAY. Each episode you will have a definitive answer to what MLM and Network Marketing is and more importantly what it isn’t, how you can make it yours and a KISS teachable item that you can duplicate and easily pass down as you grow your organization.
