Imagine my delight to see two such wonderful faces staring back at me on this fine Monday evening.
Look at that, two movie stars!
This was so helpful. Thanks Ed!
I've had a situation like this just this week. Thanks, Ed for the great advice!
Thank you both for sharing this conversation! I'll save it to listen to it from time to time, this is an excellent mood booster for me too!
Can we see some proof of income please, I know how such a thing is possible in this business but most people do not. And they never believe it.
And lastly, yes... I'm inspired! Thank you!
Hi Ed, thank you so much for sharing this episode... I say, one of the best I've ever watched, and I have a lot of takeaways! I want to bring these couple of advice with me, always. As Wendy said... "If you want something and it's really important to you, the only person who can make it happen is YOU! Nobody is going to do it for you. So, you have to have the STRENGTH, PERSISTENCE, AND RESOURCEFULNESS to just do it!" Beautiful! "You just can't hope for things, you have to actually take a step." Wonderful! Absolutely, kudos to you and to Wendy! Again, thank you so much Ed, and thank you, Wendy!
Great episode, so helpful!
Awesome interview! Love the new platform!

Start writing that book right this minute. Stop procrastinating 😉
Excellent advice. Thanks so much!
I need more time. Give me 15 years.
Sure! Go as far back as you want. In fact, try this with a 5-year window, 10-year window and a 15-year window. See what comes up.
Get out of NYC and possibly think of leaving the country. People in America are gonna go off the rails.
Very good video :)
Thank you very much!
Thanks, Ed. Really helpful and great timing too!
Glad it was helpful, Cheryl!
Thanks for your view using the flood mountain scenario to explain who will get impacted and where we want to be.
Glad to hear that resonated, Kim!
Love your advice, ed!
I always love your content so welcome back!
Thank you!
Thanks, ed!
Cool Ed! Can’t wait to see what you’ve got in store.
Thanks, Aimee!
Much better way for happiness would be if you try to create experiences for others rather than just for yourself:)
Definitely another great way to do that!
I've been following you since 2 years.
Thanks!
wow amazing ..hidden gold
Your video was extremely helpful to me, especially the mission statement questions. Thank you so much!
Great advice Ed, same goes for us designers. 👍🏻
Thanks for posting this, Ed. Fit right into what I'm doing. What do you think of redirecting to the bait piece instead of sending an email with download?
Love this idea! What was particularly helpful was the examples of experiences and ways of putting aside the income the fund these. Hope to do these with my son someday!
What do you think is a good way to stay in touch?
Great question! Here's a podcast episode on that topic: b2blauncher.com/episode130/ #130: Why Your Biggest Client Opportunities Are Slipping Between Your Fingers-and What to Do About It. It gives some direction on how best to stay in touch.
Your tips are always smart and on point, Ed! I love the way you broke out low, medium, and hight intensity marketing tactics.
Go Ed!
Nice video Ed appreciate it.
Great article Ed, very practical and appreciate you showing the steps being actionable. Upwork on getting a guy to help with the video thing.> AGain appreciate the post.
Great to hear you found it useful, Joe. We use our in-house team to create the slides, but you could certainly find a virtual assistant to do this for you.
Ed what are you using to put slides and do narration over it. Photoshop or ??? Nice work. Very compelling.
Thanks, Joe! We are screencasting audio and powerpoint slides and recording that.
Got it, nice and simple, nice job.
This is so moving. Just this one video can change the lives of people who take it to heart. I love the photo of you and your son. Thank you for sharing this.
