Thank you, Tim Ferriss
Hi, Mr. Ferriss. You do not know me but a little over four years ago you helped me quit my job, start an online company and travel the world. Well, your advice has helped me again in starting my new company, Performance Nut Butter. I quickly want to talk about all the ways your advice has helped me in the formation of this new company.
First off, the idea originally came from The 4-Hour Body when you talked about having four tablespoons of almond butter before bed. I was originally going to do a bedtime butter and actually improve upon the four tablespoons of almond butter. But, then, upon your advice, I read The 22 Immutable Laws of Marketing and realized a few different things. I realized that there is nobody in the Performance Nut Butter space. So, by doing that I could be a first mover and have the first mover advantage. On top of that, I also picked the name Performance Nut Butter because it implies the benefit and it can be used and substituted as a generic. Both of these things were talked about in The 22 Immutable Laws of Marketing.
Next, I watched the business episode of the Tim Ferriss experiment where you and Noah Kagan talked about getting a MVP product out as soon as possible to test the market. So, I created the jars which even though the final product is going to be in individual squeeze packs, the jars allowed me to test the market and get it out to influencers.
I then used books like Tribes and Influence that you and other guests have recommended to build an audience. Your story about creating a book for people to get into Ivy League colleges and nobody buying it reminded me that I need to find my audience (more…)

Joining an Ecommerce Mastermind
In this video, we are going to talk about how to join an eCommerce mastermind. I have a paid mastermind eCommerce mastermind. We will talk a little bit about that at the end but let’s first talk about how you can join one, hopefully for free. The first thing you can do is go to forums, go to Facebook groups, go to other things like that, just message people or post a message and say, “Hey, I want to start an eCommerce mastermind.” You will be surprised at how often this works. In fact, I started a Facebook group myself.
If you want, you can get my free ecommerce success pack and I will send you an invitation to the Facebook group as well. In that Facebook group, I guarantee you will be able to find other people that are interested in joining an ecommerce mastermind with you. So, if you do want to join an ecommerce mastermind, click up here to get information. You can also go to places like Reddit or to other ecommerce forums. There are a lot of different ecommerce forums out there that cost money. For instance, the ecommerce fuel forum is one that I know a lot of people really enjoy. That is for higher level people though so it does cost a decent amount of money. I think When I last checked, it was around it was around $50 a month which is pretty pricey. I am not going to lie. If you do want to join an ecommerce mastermind think about how you are going to do that. Another option is reach out to people like me who know a lot of people in ecommerce and see if they if they have other people in mind that might be a good fit for you. (more…)

How to Run a Successful Business Mastermind
In this video, we are going to talk about how to run a successful business mastermind and I have a lot of experience. I have been a part of masterminds. I have also run a lot of masterminds. So, I am going to tell you some of the advice that I have learned over the years.
First of all, let me tell you the format that I use currently for my masterminds. We use what is called a rotating hot seat which means that in each session we focus on a different person’s business. So, in the early days, each person was allowed maybe 15 minutes to share. If you are not aware of what a mastermind is, let me just explain how my masterminds usually work. Typically, my masterminds have six people involved and that is was the way it was in the early days. Each person would get 15 minutes.
We meet every other week now. One of the things I found out about meeting every other week is that people forget which week they were to meet. They would think, “Oh, is our meeting this week or is it next week.” They do not get in the routine when it is every other week. So now, I have all of my meetings, all my mastermind meetings for one hour, once a week. That seems to be a good rhythm because you know every Wednesday at 12:00, we will have a mastermind. There is no question. There is no thinking is it this week or is it next week. There is no forgetting about it because you are not in the flow. So, that is the first part.
Now, I do the rotating hot seat so each one of those six people now gets a full hour, more or less, focused on (more…)
