Sell More

Stories leave a lasting impression. A lot of times, it’s the difference between why you use one brand over another. The emotion, the commonalities, the lessons...all of that leads to a deepen relationship that translates into loyalty. Jason Hornung’s story is no different. He has been through the up’s and down’s as every entrepreneur does. He found his calling from the struggles of the process. Now, he brings his story of triumph to you in this episode of the Sell More podcast. Along with his tale of overcoming typical entrepreneurial hurdles, he shares with us a proven formula to maximizing profits using Facebook advertising. Introducing Jason Hornung: Jason started his career in the insurance world. He opened up an American Family agency.

He turned to the wise and effective ways of Dan Kennedy. Jason bought his books and cour

Everywhere you turn a new person or blog jumps out from behind a corner or creeps through a crack to slap you in the face with “news” or more information. The supply of content available to us is NOT scarce. Actually, it’s the complete opposite. The supply is so high it has surpassed the demand. If this was a cartoon...the content overload would look like a race between the road runner verus droopy dog. The road runner would just be running laps around droopy so much so that the dust accumulated from his speed would cause an enormous cloud. Droopy would be forced to stop in his tracks and just wait. Or even worse, just abandon the race altogether. That’s exactly what some people are doing. People are giving up on all the amazing information available to them. There is an overload. That’s why I felt the responsibility to bring it upon myself to share all the amazing news and information that makes you think. More so, all the content that brings insight and value to you and your business. Like traveling to

We've all felt lost, stuck, or unable to move forward. Sometimes when life throws us a challenge, it feels as if everything we do is just wasted effort. It's perfectly okay to feel confused at times.

Change your mindset, and come to terms with the fact that as long as you are willing to work for it and put in the necessary effort it is possible.

Vulnerability is new for me. It’s very foreign and very frightening. I have tried to be vulnerable in the past, but the old school, hard ass mentality I grew up with just kicked in, by default, as soon as I tried. A poor excuse, I know. But I believe that everything happens for a reason. I wasn’t ready to be vulnerable at the time. I wasn’t ready to show all of me. It’s not an easy thing for people to do. Many live their entire lives hiding behind a version of themselves that is not really them. It’s sad to think about because there is so much the real you can give to the world. But because we have this misconception implanted in our brains to feel and act a certain way, we hide some of the best values we possess. That is selfish. Again, being vulnerable is not easy. I believe there is a certain way to do it. What I will tell you from my personal experience is that starting to be vulnerable, to be you, is such a sense of relief. That’s what this episode of Sell More is all about. It’s me b

Data is the most important part of any business's marketing efforts. Yes, you heard me correct. I said it. Data is the most important part of your marketing. Not the content. Not your social media accounts. Not your website. You need all of those channels, but they are not the most important. The data helps you track what is going on. Knowing how they are performing is the key here. That is what we talk about with our guest in today’s show. Kate O’Neill is one the smartest digital marketing minds that I know. We have worked on a couple projects together over the years. She was a key contributor to a section in my book, Chirp, Chirp. Kate was one of the most attended speakers to my Chirp, Chirp Extravaganza event. Let me give her a formal introduction to do her some justice.   Intro: Kate O'Neill has an amazing story. She tells it better in the podcast, but I’m going to highlight some of the special areas. Kate was one of the first 100 employees of Netflix. She has worked at Toshiba and various othe
