 Episode 6: Sean Malarkey on Partnering, Producing, & Living the Dream | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 40:57

This week I'm excited to welcome serial entrepreneur and surf bum Sean Malarkey to the show. I've known Sean for a few years, and in that time he's created an incredibly successful business selling information products that teach people how to use social media platforms to grow their businesses, establish themselves as an expert, and much more. One of the coolest things about his business, though, is that he lets other people be the expert and focuses on being the producer, handling the marketing, packaging, customer support, and more. It's a business that allowed him to move to Santa Barbara to spend more time surfing and less time working. He shares how he built the business, his take on building an amazing team to support you, and his thoughts on work/lifestyle balance. In this episode, you'll learn: Why Sean left the corporate world, even though he was running the company How Sean established himself as an expert and gained a huge following via social media One of the best marketing techniques for growing your audience, establishing yourself as an expert, and easy selling How he uses partnering and producing to create amazing products in a short amount of time, and how you can do the same Why he decided to scrap his virtual team and have a local office again How he balances his free time with his work time Why Sean created his own great podcast recently, and what he hopes to achieve with it And much more! Sean has built a really fun and successful business for himself, and his business model is something I highly recommend if you feel like you don't have the time to create your own products or feel nervous about being "the expert" on your topic. Check out the interview now and let me know what you think! More from Sean: The Money Pillow - Sean's great new podcast where he interviews people who are legitimately "making money in their sleep." There are some really cool success stories on here! LinkedInfluence - A product Sean and his partner Lewis created to teach people how to use LinkedIn to generate sales, leads, influence, and more. FBInfluence - A product Sean produced with Facebook expert Amy Porterfield that shows how to use Facebook for business. It's a great example of the producer model at work.

 Episode 5: Ryan Lee on Making Big Things Happen | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 43:34

This week I'm excited to welcome my good friend and mentor Ryan Lee to the show. Ryan started out as a full-time PE teacher in a rough neighborhood and now runs a hugely successful 7-figure lifestyle business. It wasn't a fluke, either; Ryan still hustles as hard as anyone I know, is constantly trying new things and pushing himself to do more, and most of all loves what he does. I think you'll really enjoy hearing how Ryan went from humble beginnings to where he is today by working hard, constantly learning and improving, and making products that people can't wait to buy. In this episode, you'll learn: How Ryan started a thriving web business in the late 90s, with no technical skills, no marketing background, and very little money How he made the successful transition from day job to lifestyle business, with no risk Little "tricks" that help you be more productive and reach your goals How to really light a fire under your butt Why a "7" just isn't good enough Why getting a product out there is better than getting it perfect How to increase your income with "hard" topics instead of "soft" topics The real secret to making significant money as an infopreneur or author How to create products that people can't wait to buy Easy pricing, using the 10x rule How Ryan started learning marketing despite not having a business background The worst and best parts of being an entrepreneur, according to Ryan And much more! Ryan is a very inspirational guy, and someone I always recommend to people who are struggling to get their dream business underway.

 Episode 1: Introducing the War on Work podcast! | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 11:13

I'm really excited to introduce the first episode in the War on Work podcast! I've been doing podcasts for about 4 years, and they're one of my favorite ways to communicate and share information. When I was still in the corporate world and had 90+ minutes of commuting every day, podcasts were a lifesaver. I owe a lot of credit to shows like the Smart Passive Income podcast, Blogcast.fm, This is Your Life, and The Rise to the Top for helping me make the jump to entrepreneurship, and now I hope War on Work can do the same for you. This first episode is a quick introduction to the show and what you can expect from it. In it I cover what the show is, why I created it, and what you can expect to get out of it going forward. I have big plans for this show and have already recorded a bunch of interviews with amazing and inspirational guests, so I hope you'll subscribe and join me! My goal is to make the War on Work podcast a major catalyst for you quitting your day job and successfully following your dreams. Please subscribe to make sure you don't miss any episodes! There are great things to come. If you enjoyed the show, please leave a review on iTunes and let me know! I'd also love to hear what you thought, and what you'd like to hear on the show in the future, in the comments below. Thanks for listening!
