Is it possible to make six or seven figures with challenges and events?
This week’s podcast guest and OfferLaunch featured speaker, Austin Ford, better known as The Challenge King, made $100K the day he started doing his events.
If that’s not convincing enough, Austin recently did an event that made $300K in a single day with only 64 attendees.
Yes, you read that right.
This shows that you don’t need a big audience to launch an event.

And guess what?
He started selling bus tickets through his sales funnel.
Come learn the mindset shift he's made since then to keep his business growing.

Most marketers want continuity in their business. Who doesn't? We all do.

A marketer is nothing more than an event thrower.
We throw events packaged as webinars, challenges, or whatever modality we use just to get people’s attention.
However, one thing that most of us would refrain from discussing is that filling an event is HARD enough!
But not for Stacey Martino.
Stacey and her husband, Paul, are relationship gurus and have been doing it for 20 years.
For the last 10 years, they’ve had a whopping 90% REPEAT ATTENDANCE rate (read that again).
Her clients are even willing enough to pay as much as $15,000 to get into their program!
How did they do it?
Fortunately, Stacey is one of our featured speakers this coming October 26-28 at the OfferLaunch event (so exciting). And she’s here to share her event methodologies that will blow your mind.

I think a lot of people jump into the entrepreneurial space because they are a bit of an artist.
However, many of them don't know how to manage money in terms of separating business finance from personal finance.
This is where someone like Brad Gibb, a dear friend, investor, financial expert, and one of our featured speakers at this coming OffferLaunch 2023 event, comes in.

It was probably seven or eight years ago that I met Sean Malone, and he eventually became one of those people who inspired me on my journey.
Sean got into sales in pursuit of this most frequently asked question–how to make a boatload of money?
Like most of us, he started as a terrible salesman, booking zero appointments out of 2,400 calls. But that didn’t make him quit sales.
He learned sales systems to master his craft, and lo and behold, he became one of the greatest sales geniuses I’ve met in my entire life.
Interestingly, after hearing how Sean has been crushing business after business with his sales system, I realized that marketing is only measured in lead gen.
I’m not saying there’s no advantage to publishing a video that gets tons of likes, but sometimes that’s just the awareness part.
It’s important to remember to build a SALES company rather than a MARKETING company. After all, you’re here to sell.
So, here’s how DMs can help you make the transition.
(Also, if you haven’t yet, get your ticket at OfferLaunch.com and learn from experts like Sean how to (re)launch lucrative offers that make 6-7 figures.)
Key Takeaways:
Intro (00:00)
Meet Sean Malone (02:36)
The birth of FlowChat (14:18)
How to utilize DMs for stronger launch (17:26)
What makes FlowChat different (23:38)
The truth about social media (24:24)
What internet marketers and funnel builders don’t know (27:23)
DM is the online hallway (30:32)

I’ve worked with many different ad agencies, but this one stood out to me.
Meet Brad Langan, a personal trainer turned media-buying expert and marketing agency owner.
Instead of looking at paid traffic just by getting people to click a page, he understands the value of bringing that traffic to the page and looking at it as one “continued whole”. It is such a unique thing!
If you think about it, the shift is quite simple but essential for cheaper conversions.
That’s what made Brad and his agency one of the top paid ad agencies in the industry.
And so, I can hardly wait for him to share all about it at the upcoming OfferLaunch event.
For now, here’s a sneak peek at how they’ve changed the paid ad and sales funnel landscapes.
Key Takeaways:
Intro (00:00)
Meet Brad Langan and his works (01:41)
How Brad got into the media buying space (05:26)
Traffic and launching mistakes that funnel people make (09:59)
Brad’s comprehensive marketing strategy (13:59)
The value of warming people up (19:23)
Final thoughts (22:11)

Come to think of it… I have made 55 products in three years, many of which have been taken down.
I didn’t see the real value they bring when it comes to business valuation.
Then came Raleigh Williams, a mergers and acquisitions lawyer turned business owner and now my business partner.
Raleigh started as a mergers and acquisitions lawyer–working at a big law firm in New York and then later in Texas.
When he saw how these big companies earn millions (and even billions) of dollars through acquiring businesses or selling divisions of their companies, he got into building his own business.
He went from earning $2M a year in profit from his family entertainment business to selling the entire business for $26M.
Then Raleigh made me realize the biggest mistakes that internet marketers like me create.
Let us share them with you in detail and hopefully enlighten you.
Key Takeaways:
Intro (00:00)
Meet Raleigh Williams (02:03)
Why you should have a business exit strategy plan (07:18)
Two main mistakes that marketers make (10:22)
The key man risk concept explained (12:49)
Advantage of digital marketers compared to the usual M&A deal (14:45)
Business ownership vs. entrepreneurship (17:32)

It was probably two years ago while I was at a Funnel Hacking Live…
That I had one of the most meaningful epiphanies of my life as an entrepreneur.
I was woken up in the middle of the night and was inspired to create a Medical Underground Railroad.
Honestly, I don’t know what it is.
All I know is that I want to be one of those entrepreneurs who helped create solutions even for something they do not have specialties in.
This project allows me to give back and make an impact.
And so I talked to my coach (yes, I have business and personal coaches, too), and that’s where I came to know these powerful immortal words from Aristotle: "Nature abhors a void.”
It means that nature will always fill any empty spaces.
So if you’re frustrated that you don’t have the clarity yet to some of your biggest business ideas, don’t fret.
There’s beauty in asking questions even without immediate answers.
Lemme tell you how you can apply this principle in real life and in marketing.
Key Takeaways:
Intro (00:00)
My trip to Africa (00:52)
The pros and cons of capitalism (02:07)
The “nature-abhors-a-void” concept (04:54)
An example of “nature-abhors-a-void” (09:55)
Comparing different business models (13:21)
How to be an idea pioneer (18:32)
What is it to be entrepreneurially self-reliant? (20:52)
The power of asking questions (25:44)

It's not the first time I've had this type of insight.
But it resurfaced after years while I was filming a video about how unique the offer launch is.
And that's what spurred the thought.
I realized that there is a benefit to being an innovator. Sure, there are things to be blue, new, and prolific with.
However, there are also certain things that it's best to model what has worked.
One of the biggest frustrating aspects I have in teaching my frameworks to others is that "some" people would do differently from what the framework says.
And they'd come up to me and say...
"Steve, your framework doesn't work."
Yeah? No way!
Well, it feels like I'm handing a Ferrari to a five-year-old who can't reach the pedals yet.
Lemme tell you more about what I mean by this...
Key Takeaways:
Intro (00:00)
There's a certain playroom within the framework (01:37)
What is the Red Ocean Analytics? (04:27)
Two main reasons why people take reckless risks (05:48)
Why you should copy the category king (07:15)
The story behind the Ferrari framework (10:48)
You got to learn to reach the pedals (12:44)

Here I was, sitting and thinking about the very first successful sales funnel I made for another company.
And it got me asking what made it so successful compared to my previous attempts.
Obviously, I had good copies on my sales funnels, good sales videos, etc.
But I think the answer is really simple…
Survey your customers!
As customers come and go, I surveyed my customers to fully understand what they need. It might seem like a leap, but it does benefit you in the long run.
Find out how.
Key Takeaways:
Intro (00:00)
Why you should survey your customers (00:55)

“If you're still doing the same thing in 20 years, I'm gonna kill you.”
Although those weren't his original words (he got them from the movie The Good Will Hunting), my business coach of three years, Brian, made me think hard about what I really wanted to do.
For the past few years, it has always been funnel, funnel, and funnel. Hence, the birth of Sales Funnel Radio.
