Welcome to Marketing Secrets Podcast. I'm walking right now with Bart Miller. How are you doing, man? I'm good. How are you guys? Doing awesome. We're going to show you guys some cool stuff here after the intro. So the big question is this.

How are entrepreneurs like us, who didn't cheat and take on venture capital, we're spending money from our own pockets. How do we market in a way that lets us get our products and our services and the things that we believe in out to the world and yet still remain profitable? That is the question and this podcast will give you the answer. My name is Russell Brunson, and welcome to Marketing Secrets. All right, so we're out here. It's freezing cold out here.

It's cold. And Bart's been in a circle now for a year and a half, and I wanted to talk to you about him because he's taught me some cool stuff, and I think it'll help you guys as well. So, it makes it harder to walk and talk. It does, I'm sure of it. Does that ruin the whole,

it's gonna throw a whole another level here going on. I love it. Our cardio stuff. Okay, so I'm gonna embarrass Bark, he doesn't even know what I'm gonna ask, I just turn the camera on. But he runs, first off, some background for those who don't know him, he runs a couple businesses. What are the core things you run so we have an amazon business we have a makeup school

and russell tries to keep me as focused as possible on those two things so he does everything else the other ones he refuses to tell me about because i will tease him forever exactly anyway okay so someone talked about so um we hung out. When was it we went to Dallas? Oh, that's been a year ago. So, a year ago, we went down there because we were working at a beauty school. And we filmed an episode of Funnel Hacker TV, which actually is the next episode. I don't know if you knew that. Oh, I didn't know that.

Oh, cool. So, at the end of the last one, it said, next week, it had a little thing with Colette. How did they miss that? I watched it. It was after the credits. So, anyway. So, the next episode is going to be showing that whole story. It shows me wearing skinny jeans and a bunch of other things um which was amazing by the way oh skinny jeans anyway uh so what i think was interesting why i love bart so much why i just

wrote him a big huge check to come kick my butt is because um after that um you've always been in fashion but that wasn't like your thing. And we talked about it like, hey, Bart used to be doing fashion for people. And then he like got intense and obsessed and like in it and just like was awesome. And he basically last

Fun Hockey Live dressed me, dressed half the inner circle and a bunch of other people. Then, fast forward now, man, seven, eight months? Since last, since Fun Hockey Live? When was it you decided that you were going to get ripped and shredded and everything? And then, fast forward now, man, seven, eight months? Mm-hmm. Since last, since Fun Hockey Live? Yeah. When was it you decided that you were gonna get ripped

and shredded and everything? Well, so my son was leaving on an LDS mission, and so I've been racing bikes for the last seven years, and I've just always wanted fitness because a lot of people think it's easy to be fit all the time, and I'm here to tell you that, and don't tell my family this, but my mom's obese, my sister's obese,

my dad's obese, you know. I know it runs in my family, so I'm probably taking way too long here, but what I'm saying is that my son, I wanted to spend time with him before he was leaving and getting out of the house, and that was a year ago, and so I decided that I was gonna start lifting,

and then, like Russell's gonna tell you I'm afraid that I'm an extremist. So, which is actually the moral of the story. This is a good thing, not a bad thing. Yeah, so I get super extreme into things and that's why I hired Russell really for Inner Circle to be honest with you, we'll get into that. But anyway, so I couldn't take it anymore

and I went after the best coach in the world in my space which is physique and bodybuilding and I hired him so I fly to California every month for a full week and I lift with him and then I fly home implement it all and then I fly back and do more and did my first show in California with him did my second show Boise, and the first show I won an overall and 40 plus category, and took second in the 35 plus category. So I was super, super stoked, blessed,

but put all the hard work into motion, made it happen. Awesome, okay, battery's about to die, I'm gonna grab my phone and we're gonna finish this because I still haven't got to the point of what I want to share with you guys. All right, we'll be right back. Alright, the battery died, but now we got it back. So, you missed our walk, it was really fun.

It was amazing. We went four miles, it was awesome. So, I don't remember exactly where we left off, but it was somewhere between why I respect Bart and why you guys should listen to what he's gonna say right now. So, my question for him, or not my question, my observation more so, and then let me get your thoughts on

is just, and look, the battery's gonna die again now now we may be back to the phone in a second here but um it's basically like when you go into something you don't dabble like some people in life they dabble they're like oh i'm gonna do this i'm gonna do this i'm gonna do this you're like i'm gonna get fit and so then you went i don't care if you talked about this or not but you went hired a weightlifting coach who lives in a different state you fly out there once once one week a month work out with them come back and, and then you sign up for bodybuilding competitions, all sorts of stuff, it wasn't just like, I'm gonna get in shape, and then you did it

for two days and you quit, like most people do, including this guy right here sometimes. You went insanely all in, so I just think that that is cool and people should learn from that. Thanks. So one thing, I'll just tell you this. Thanks. I don't know what to say, but the camera's on,

so I'll say this, and I'm a talker. Russell knows it. All right, that one died as well. We're back again on the new phone now. Yeah, so you guys get the honor and the privilege to see Tony at his event coming up, which is why we're getting fit. But on that note, I learned this from Tony Robbins, and he said, if the pain doesn't outweigh the pleasure, you'll never be successful. And at the time, I was like, are you kidding me? And I really didn't understand it. And then he made it really clear. He said that if you want to quit smoking or you

want anything in life, that if you'll make something so painful that you, you have to get there, like you'll have to accomplish it. For example, um, if I wrote a check for a half a million dollars and let's say I was super wealthy, like Russell, I wrote a check for an enormous amount of money to a charity that I absolutely detested. And if I failed at that, then X, Y, Z could cash that check, right? That pain would outweigh me ever getting there. So the pain of me getting on stage and not looking my very best was enough to just like, I would give up anything. I never cheated on my diet or anything one time because I knew that if I failed, I just couldn't live with myself.

You'd embarrass him to speedo on stage. Yeah, totally. I wish I went on a speedo. And actually, by the way, when I started this process, he was like, what's the thing that's going to cause you the most pain? I was like, honestly, if I ever had to get on stage to speedo with the black tan, that'd be the worst. So if I don't hit my goals, you guys will see me on stage.

You'll see Russell doing an event. And that's the thing. If I can give you any advice, it's the same advice Tony did. So when I commit to something, I always tie it to what's the consequence. And I shouldn't be teaching this to Russell because now he's going to do this crap to me. Yeah, this is, this is a horrible podcast. Don't listen to this again. But anyway, the moral story is, is you've got to put something there that helps you not just to get there, but you're going to make it because if you don't, this consequence is extreme for you. And if you'll do that, like if you say you're going to have a funnel every week and you don't accomplish

that, you need to have something so serious that there's just no way you're going to fail doing that. And that's what I've learned in my life to push me to that next level. And that's why I did it. Awesome. So I've seen what I do twice and two different things right now. And it's super inspiring. Um, in fact, it was like two different things right now, and it's super inspiring. In fact, it was like a year ago when you came and worked out at my place the first time with Anthony here. I mean, you were just like kind of doing some stuff. And then here today he was like taking the show like, hey, Russell, do this, do this.

I was like, dang, this is a different part in less than a year, which is insanely cool. But it's because you go all in and you don't dabble in it. It's awesome. Well, it's like you said. It's like you merge in yourself. And it's the same thing you teach, that the more you don't have to be only a few steps ahead of everybody else to be successful but if you totally immersion it's the same thing tony robbins preaches and you're the best at it like russell commits to like things that you should never commit to i mean it's

serious my wife's like why are you doing this yeah but it's the same thing i'm doing he puts himself through so much pain that if he doesn't get it done he knows he'll never accomplish it if he doesn't do it just like taking this challenge on right now he does not have time to get ripped for funnel hacking life let's be clear but we're out here at 10 o'clock at night how many other people are sitting doing something else and while we're doing it we're creating a podcast i mean he utilizes his time like crazy it's insane but he does the exact same thing he's complimenting me for it but it's the same model he runs every single day of his life. So learn from that and you'll be super successful. There you go, guys.

You're here first. So thanks, Bart, for hanging out, man, and for the walk and for the workout and for – I got a sweat belt on. This is sucking all the fat out of me. Dude, I'm going to be so ripped.
