3 Value Bombs

1) The story behind the product is more important than the product itself.

2) Speak in a way that is consistent with your agenda. Do not try to sell anything, but offer value and build relationships.

3) Guesting on other podcasts can quickly build a following, but getting on popular shows takes time and effort.

Today’s Audio MASTERCLASS:   Building a company with over $1 Billion in revenue before your 21st birthday with Shaahin Cheyene

[1:35] – Shaahin shares something he believes about becoming successful that most people disagree with.

  • He believes that the story behind the product is more important than the product itself.

[1:59] – Shaahin shares how he built a company with over 1 Billion in revenue before his 21st birthday.

  • He started at 16, and his family had immigrated to the US and were poor. He left home at 15 and found his way into the electronic music scene, where he saw that DJs and promoters were broke, but drug dealers were thriving.
  • He created a legal, natural version of ecstasy and sold it through drug dealers, eventually making it one of the most successful supplement products ever.
  • He believes that being a guest on podcasts is a powerful marketing tool.

[6:59] – What is the power of marketing when it comes to being a guest on podcasts?

  • Shaahin has multiple successful Amazon companies and has recently shifted to a startup called Podcast Cola. He learned that being a guest on podcasts is an effective way to promote books, but he found it challenging to connect with top podcasts.
  • He realized that representing oneself can sometimes be perceived as unprofessional and that social proof is essential in gaining credibility.
  • Podcast Cola offers a service where they craft a story for clients and represent them on other people’s shows to maximize social proof and borrow their audience.
  • He acknowledges the hard work and dedication required to run a successful podcast.

[14:50] – What are your top tips for being a great podcast guest?

  • If you don’t have money, you can represent yourself but won’t get significant opportunities. Be honest with yourself about your achievements.
  • Speak in a way that is consistent with your agenda. Do not try to sell anything, but offer value and build relationships.
  • Use the power of storytelling to connect with people. Research the host or guest before going on a show.
