THE HIDDEN SECRET BEHIND SOME OF THE WORLD'S MOST SUCCESSFUL BUSINESSES
What is it that makes companies like Tesla, Apple, and Nike so incredibly successful? 

On the face of it, none of them sell anything especially extraordinary.

Tesla sells electric cars like Toyota…
Apple sells electronic devices like Dell…
Nike sells sports shoes like New Balance…

But, behind the scenes, hidden from most of the world, they're all doing something unique that sets them apart.

See, what they're doing isn't selling products or services… 

They're selling a movement.

Think about it. While most companies sell products…
  • At Tesla, Elon Musk sells stylish and high-performance electric vehicles to help utilize sustainable energy.

  • At Apple, Steve Jobs created user-friendly, design-centric devices built to change how the misfits interact with technology.

  • At Nike, Michael Jordan sells fashionable shoes that represent the pursuit of greatness and the spirit of overcoming challenges.
This approach transforms a business from a mere provider of goods or services into a catalyst for change. They become a beacon for a community with shared values and aspirations. 

And you can do the exact same thing in your business.

In the book Expert Secrets, Russell uncovers the 3 things all successful movements have:
  1. They each have a charismatic leader (or attractive character)

  2. They offer their audience a new opportunity

  3. They have a future-based cause that unites their tribe 
Figure out what these are for you, share them in your marketing, and watch as this simple shift in messaging drives excited leads into your funnels.

If you want to make sure you get this spot on, Russell provides a detailed, step-by-step guide in Expert Secrets (which you can get for free here or by clicking the image below).
FREE TOOLS YOU NEED TO TRY
Did you know that we have a repository of cool tools you can use completely free?

A lot of them are tools Russell needed, so he asked the team to build them and then put them on a page where everyone can use them. 

There's a QR code generator, a video editor, and even a press release wizard!

Take a look at the tools on offer here.

TOP TIPS FROM AN INNER CIRCLE MEMBER
With multiple successful businesses and over 2 million followers on social media, Inner Circle member Edward Collins is the Financial Freedom Coach you may have seen on your social media feed lately.
We got to sit down with Edward recently to find out:
  1. The one change that turned his business into a big success

  2. The advice Russell gave him that led to his huge social media following

  3. The key to building a successful business 
Let's go…

Like many funnel hackers, Edward's entrepreneurial journey started when he was a kid. 

Growing up in a family where every dollar was important, he remembers being told by his mom, "If you want something bad enough, you have to figure out a way to go get it." 

A short while later, he watched an episode of Dennis the Menace where Dennis was selling lemonade and figured, 'I could do that!' So that's what he did. 

However, the success of his lemon stand business did not immediately follow over into his entrepreneurial ventures post-college…

One morning, a knock on the door was the wake-up call he didn't know he needed. Edward was behind on his bills, over $200k in debt, and two debt collectors had come to take away his car. 

Cut to today… 

Edward has multiple successful businesses, over 2 million followers across social media platforms, and is changing people's lives every day.

So, how did he do it?

The Key To Accelerated Success
After the two men had left, Edward found himself looking in the bathroom mirror, "I can remember looking at myself and saying, Edward, what are you doing because whatever you're doing is just not working."

At that moment, he decided that enough was enough. He would stop trying to do this on his own. He would find mentors and follow exactly what they told him to do.

This changed everything for him. By the end of that year, his business was finally breaking even, and by the end of the next, he had paid off all his debts and was building something big.

He Invested In His Success
Whenever Edward found a mentor he knew could help, he didn't hesitate. He jumped right in.

After stumbling upon one of our ads on Facebook, Edward attended 2 Comma Club Live.

He was blown away by the content and decided to join 2CCX.

He got so much from 2CCX, he applied to join Inner Circle and has been there ever since. "We keep renewing our Inner Circle subscription because of what Russell teaches, but also because he gets all these amazing human beings in the same room.

"What's amazing about these people Russell brings together is that they are succeeding and have no problem guiding you. They want you to win!"

The Advice Russell Gave Him
"I was not a big social media person. I was a no picture type of person on Facebook, scrolling and seeing other people's content. But Russell shared you have to understand that's where the attention is. 

"Then, at one of the first Inner Circle masterminds in Boise, Russell said that you have to post on social media daily. You have to commit to it.

"I had full-force resistance, but I'm like, all this guy has achieved, I'm gonna listen to what he says. 

"So, starting in January 2022, I made a commitment I was going to post every single day without fail. No matter what."

Pivoting When Things Aren't Working As Hoped
After posting consistently, Edward and his team weren't seeing the results they wanted…

"The content I was posting was pretty much what others told me to. My content was all over the map, so I needed to make a change.

"I had done a couple of reaction videos before. It wasn't a lot, but those were the ones that were getting the most views, and my followers were sending us reels from other content creators asking us for my reaction.

"So I said to my director of implementation, Jose, just pick some of the content that was sent in and load it on a phone.

"After watching it, I just put the phone down, and I literally just spoke from my heart, based on my own knowledge that I've accumulated over two and a half decades. No scripting at all.

"I didn't know this until the next day, and they were like, we got something like 4,000 new followers from that post, and I'm like, okay, we're doing that!"

That new style led to him getting 500,000 followers in three months.
Edward's #1 Takeaway From FHL 2023
"Garrett White got on stage and was talking about the facilitator method. That was awesome. 

"I become a bit of a bottleneck because I'm only one human being. I have other people obviously on my team, other amazing human beings who are so brilliant and add value to those we serve, but a lot of people want to hear from me. So that has been the thing that has slowed us a bit.

"Now we're figuring out, how can we leverage the facilitator method?" 

Key Reads for Business Success
"Richest Man in Babylon... Think and Grow Rich... DotCom Secrets… Expert Secrets… if you read them and put those principles to work on a daily basis, your life will change."

The best way to reach Edward
"The best way for people to find out more about me is to find me on social media. Instagram is our largest social media following at the moment. My handle there is edwardcollins_upleveled.

"From there, if you go to the link in the bio, you can find all the other stuff about me."


We often hear people saying success leaves clues. Edward's business has grown to incredible new heights because he took action and joined 2CCX and then Inner Circle.

So, if you have the goal of winning the 2 Comma Club Award, you should strongly consider joining 2CCX to get the tools and guidance to make it happen.

If you've already reached 2CC and want to make the jump to the next level, the Inner Circle has just opened for new applications. Check that out while you can.

SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASE YOUR INSTAGRAM FOLLOWERS WITH THIS ONE POST
The Traffic Secrets book has 25 pages of pure gold on mastering Instagram. 

One of the key lessons mentioned in the book is that your posts should have the goal of either inspiring, educating, or entertaining your audience.

Recently, we came across an interesting way to entertain your followers while simultaneously driving likes and new followers.

It's called The 0 Likes Competition…
The idea is to create a competition offering something your audience wants. But to win it, they have to comment on your post and get 0 likes.

This type of post creates a comment and like frenzy because everyone who wants one comments, and everyone else likes their comment, so they don't win!

This one post to win a signed Lionel Messi shirt led to 2 million likes and 574k new followers for the channel.

Give this a go, and post your results in the Facebook group!

If you want all of Russell's secrets to filling your websites and funnels, get yourself a copy of Traffic Secrets here. It's free. You just pay shipping.

P.S. Edward Collin's Top Tips On Wealth Generation:

Edward is known as the Financial Freedom Coach, and during our conversation, he shared some serious gold about generating wealth.

Here are a few of them…

Become Financially Literate
"Most business owners don't know the rules. They try to play the game, but it's like they're playing Legos when everyone who's succeeding is playing chess.

"So I spend most of my time just teaching people the rules so that once they understand the rules, then we can start talking about strategy."

Financial Freedom Is Not As Difficult As You Think
"Financial Freedom is definitely what you want to try and achieve, and the simple truth is it's a very simple formula. It's only 10 words:

"Free cash flow greater than your daily needs and wants. 

"That's financial freedom, right? It's just having more cash flow than your burn rate, what you're spending to live life. 

"If you have that, you are financially free." 

Invest in Assets Over Liabilities
"One of the fundamental core foundational principles is knowing the difference between assets and liabilities. 

"An asset is something that you control, which generates cash flow for you. If it does not generate cash flow for you, by my definition, it's not an asset. And anything that takes money from you is a liability.

"Most people will spend their time, which is their most valuable commodity, and they'll trade that time in order to get a dollar. What I find so confounding is that they use that dollar to buy liabilities."

Time is Far More Valuable Than Money, Spend It Wisely
"Let's say for a moment I'm going to write you a check for $10 million. I guarantee you it will clear. How would you feel if I did that? Pretty good, right? But here's the caveat… 

"You can't wake up tomorrow or ever again.

"All of a sudden, it is worthless because just waking up is infinitely more valuable than a $10 million check. What if it was $100 million or a billion dollars?

"Time is infinitely valuable. So if you're trading your time to earn a dollar that is the most expensive dollar you've ever bought right? Or, spending an hour or two with Netflix at night rather than an hour or two with a book like DotCom Secrets or Expert Secrets that can literally transform your life."

Value Creation Leads to Wealth:
"I am an unapologetic capitalist because it gives the power to the people to understand exactly how money works. 

"Money is simply a byproduct of value creation. Go out and create value and money will follow. It's not a finite resource. It is an infinite resource because you can always go out and create more value."

To learn more from Edward, he recommends starting on Instagram here. From there you can find his website and other resources.
