Transcript
- 0:00Welcome to the One Small Change. I am thrilled to embark
- 0:04on this journey of exploration, transformation with you. I'm your host,
- 0:07if you don't know, Yvonne McCoy, and I bring almost 30 years of
- 0:11entrepreneurial experience. And I have an insane
- 0:14passion for discovering growth through the power of seemingly
- 0:18small change. And I try to bring people into this
- 0:21podcast that I think are going to enrich your world, help you grow
- 0:25your business, and just give you incredible
- 0:29information. And so this week I have
- 0:33a guess that I just met, but he is fascinating
- 0:37in what he does. Michael Fitzhugh. And
- 0:40he's going to tell us why he
- 0:44is good at what he does that makes him an expert
- 0:47and what it was that kind of got him started on this path.
- 0:52So, Michael, do you like to be called Michael or Mike? Usually
- 0:55Fritz is good. There's a lot of Michaels and Mike's out there.
- 0:58Fritz, then even better. That's another way to get you found that you're
- 1:02not a Michael, you're a Fritz. There aren't a lot of Fritzes around. That's right.
- 1:06All right, Michael. So I just.
- 1:10I went back to the Michael. Sorry. That's okay. Fritz,
- 1:14tell us what you do and what happened to put
- 1:18you on this path so that you are the expert at
- 1:22this and not just somebody in the field.
- 1:26So I get people booked on podcasts and I use that to turn it into
- 1:30a hundred thousand dollars of new business revenue. And
- 1:33what got me on the path actually was
- 1:37cancer, believe it or not. Back in 2012. Yeah,
- 1:41back in 2012, I got diagnosed with cancer. And it wasn't a real bad kind
- 1:44or any, but anything but. It really was the
- 1:48warning shot that I needed. That I needed to get my life
- 1:52under better control. I didn't have my priorities set right. I was putting
- 1:56career above family, and I was putting family above
- 2:00God. And it just. Everything needed to flip. Everything needed to change.
- 2:04That was the wake up call I needed. So that was back when I was
- 2:07a full time employee. I was a W2 guy. And
- 2:11I left that and ended up getting into contracting and then
- 2:14consulting. And then I launched my first business in 2015. So
- 2:18I've eased my way into entrepreneurship. I know a lot of people, they kind of
- 2:21cannonball into the deep end of the pool and I'm like, well, we'll get there.
- 2:25I mean, we're learning. Yeah. So. But yeah, that's really.
- 2:29That's really what kicked it off, was a cancer scare. And what it led
- 2:32me to do is operate
- 2:36at the highest possible level as much as I can
- 2:40bring my whole self into everything I do. And so what I
- 2:44do with the podcast booking work is I talk
- 2:48with people about their offer first. When people come
- 2:51to me and they say, hey, I want to get booked on shows, tell me
- 2:54about your offer. What I find most of the time is that
- 2:58deep down, they're kind of afraid to sell their brains, don't really
- 3:01believe what it is that they're trying to sell. And that's why they're trying to
- 3:05guest on podcasts and get in front of as many people as possible, because they're
- 3:08hoping, hey, if 1% of 100,000 people come buy my thing,
- 3:12then I won't have to do all that scary ooky selling stuff
- 3:16I can just enjoy. Right? And it's like, let's solve that problem, and then
- 3:20let's get you booked on podcast. It'll work a whole lot better. All right, I
- 3:23need to stop you. Okay. Because the thing that
- 3:27you said at the very beginning
- 3:31is so important. And then the cancer thing.
- 3:35Well, I need to get my priorities right. Oh, yeah. And.
- 3:38And. And that is one of the things. I mean, I think we all go
- 3:42through that cycle where at some point, you know, we're.
- 3:46We're in our late 20s, 30s, you know,
- 3:50we're trying to get our careers off the ground. We're doing whatever it is,
- 3:53right. And in that process, we lose ourselves.
- 3:57Yes, Lose ourselves. And our family becomes secondary. I mean, I.
- 4:01One of the things that I say is, you know, I was tired of
- 4:05splitting my personality. You know, outside my house, I was
- 4:08a businesswoman. You know, I was the. The mba.
- 4:12And inside my house, I was mom. Right?
- 4:16And it got confusing. I mean, sometimes I talk to my kids like
- 4:19my staff, and sometimes I talk to my staff like they were kids.
- 4:23So I think as an entrepreneur, you don't get
- 4:2724 hours to be an entrepreneur and 24 hours to be a person.
- 4:31You only get 24. And so you need to prioritize
- 4:35that. And it may. In within that prioritization, it
- 4:39may shift a little bit. You know, if you're doing a launch,
- 4:43you know, you may be like, really focus. You know, your
- 4:46religion or your higher values are always going to be first. You know,
- 4:50you may put more. You know, like this month, you may put a little bit
- 4:53more time into the business because something special is going on. But next month,
- 4:57you do put more time into the family. So it, you know, it doesn't
- 5:00have to be a static thing, but it's got
- 5:04to have. I mean, you can't just
- 5:08leave your family Behind, I guess, is what I'm saying. And what I did
- 5:11for. For many years. So I just wanted to point that out because I think
- 5:16that is something that we do not spend enough time with.
- 5:19Right. Second thing is when you are clear about what
- 5:23you're doing, you are not scattered.
- 5:27You are not doing 50 million things and not doing any of them
- 5:30well. Right. So that's one of the things
- 5:34that you and I both have in common, is that we get people to
- 5:38clarify what they do before they start, you
- 5:41know, doing other things. Okay. So please keep going on about,
- 5:45you know, I'm excited about the idea of possibly making money for my
- 5:49podcast. A lot of people are. A lot
- 5:53of people are. And what life has
- 5:56taught me. And I'm kind of. I kind of have a cool
- 6:00background. I say weird, but it's really cool, because
- 6:03if I was just a purebred, what I went to school for, I went. And
- 6:07I got a computer science degree. I should be developing software right
- 6:11now. Just put them in a closet, put some Hot Pockets under the door every
- 6:14once in a while, keep them fed, Just keep pumping coffee, and you're good.
- 6:18And somewhere along the line, I guess I hung around enough
- 6:21public speakers, it kind of rubbed off on me. I can talk to people. I'm
- 6:25a huge nerd, but I can also talk to people. And.
- 6:29Yeah, it is. And. And it's. It's really weird because when
- 6:33I look at my history and my upbringing
- 6:37and just the growth and the path, it's almost like I. I've got, like,
- 6:41my feet. You know, I get two feet in two different areas where a lot
- 6:44of people will be like, dude, just pick a lane. Can you just pick a
- 6:48thing? No, I don't want to pick a thing. That's boring. Isn't it boring?
- 6:52I mean, that is the thing that makes you unique.
- 6:55Yeah. Is that you can. And I always called that when I was trying,
- 6:59when I was in that situation where I was kind of
- 7:03in the business world and the educational world, I considered myself a
- 7:06translator that I could translate the
- 7:10needs of both. When I went into a company and I had a grant,
- 7:14I wouldn't say, I can bring your reading level up of the
- 7:18staff, because they didn't care. But if I said, I can cut
- 7:21your rework, your redos down, because people
- 7:25can read the instructions that they were
- 7:29interested in. Yeah. And so my guess is that
- 7:32that's one of the things you do really well, is you
- 7:36understand the logistics behind the scene, but you
- 7:40can talk to somebody like me who it's Like, I'm never going
- 7:44to get this. Just tell me what I need to do. Yeah.
- 7:47To get the results that I want, you know? Exactly. And you said it. You
- 7:51said it. Results. That's what people care about. They don't. They
- 7:55don't care as much. They'll pay lip service to,
- 7:59oh, this is how you can improve my life. Oh, this is how you can
- 8:02get. You know, you can do this. Okay, that's awesome. But. But what's the actual
- 8:06result? And if you can get it down to those, just the brass tacks.
- 8:10Hey, you're going to pay me this much. I'm going to get you this much.
- 8:13Here's how I'm going to go about that. But we're going to get there. Just
- 8:16stay with me. Let me help you. And. And focus more on results. And it
- 8:20takes bravery to do that, though, because we live in a world where
- 8:24there are a lot of coaches where it's kind of high level
- 8:28song and dance and you kind of can't.
- 8:33If you can't stop and take a look and say, okay, how do I get
- 8:35this result for this person? And it causes a lot of hesitation. And that's
- 8:39why when I look at how I
- 8:43used to think about sales, how I used to think about my offer, I
- 8:46used to hate sales. I love it now because finally my brain
- 8:50believes in what I'm selling because it's like, oh, I get it now. I see
- 8:54how we're going to go about doing this. Yeah, let's giggity go. And it's like,
- 8:58why weren't you like that five years ago, man? Well, because it wasn't clear. Yeah.
- 9:02So here's what I want people to put a pin in because this, again,
- 9:06is so important. The first thing is when you have clarity about what
- 9:10you do and why you're different than everybody
- 9:13else, you automatically
- 9:17become energetic and confident. Yes. Because
- 9:21you know that nobody else does it. I mean, I find it
- 9:24so amazing when I talk to people about their strengths
- 9:28that they don't value because they figure everybody's got them.
- 9:32Right. And I say, this is what you do that nobody
- 9:36else does. And they're like, what do you mean nobody else
- 9:39does that? Right. And then it's like,
- 9:43oh, my God, I can talk about this because this is who I
- 9:47am. I don't have to be anybody else. I can be myself.
- 9:50And it just. You know, one of the things that, for me that I found
- 9:54amazing is when I started saying one of my words for
- 9:58business is energetic.
- 10:02And. But I never said that in anything
- 10:05Right. And so when I, you know, talk about that and
- 10:09I tell people that, and I go, everybody's got an energy level
- 10:13that's right for you. Your energy level doesn't have to be my energy level.
- 10:16Right. But when people call me, they go, I love your energy. And
- 10:20it's like a filter. The people who hate my energy don't call
- 10:24me. Yeah. You know, so
- 10:27that is understanding. That is amazing. And
- 10:31that will get your confidence, which will then convert to get your
- 10:35consistent clients. You will attract the people that
- 10:39are a good match for you. I'm sorry. Exactly. No, it's good.
- 10:42I'm loving this conversation. Me too. I'm telling you, it's like we're just,
- 10:47you know, we're getting going. But, you know, one of the things. And I was
- 10:50just talking about this with a buddy yesterday, talking about, like,
- 10:54how to pitch, you know, how do you get your pitch down to 30 seconds
- 10:58and do the work of attracting people? But it's just as important
- 11:01to repel the wrong people as well.
- 11:05We unfortunately live in a society where a lot of us are feeling
- 11:09like we're made. We're made to feel like we need to be all things to
- 11:12all people. Oh, you gotta work for everybody. You gotta get. And it's like, no,
- 11:15you don't. And the first few times that you find somebody that you're like
- 11:19that person was an absolute blessing. Just a
- 11:23godsend. I would love to work with more people like that. Surely there's got to
- 11:27be some. It's like, what is it that put them close to
- 11:30you and attracted them to you to where they wanted to work with you? Like,
- 11:34I cannot wait to work with you. And I'm excited to work with you as
- 11:37well. You know, reciprocal white. What is it about that
- 11:41person? Really analyze that and then make the
- 11:44wild assumption that. And there's got to be thousands more people like
- 11:48that. And I bet they run around together. They probably know each other.
- 11:52So, you know, it. It's a huge mental lift off
- 11:56as well. You save lots of energy. There's just. Yeah. You
- 11:59ever. Have you ever had that happen? You ever work with somebody? Oh, yeah. And
- 12:02person's an absolute drain. So. And here's the flip side to that.
- 12:06Right. So the first thing is, as entrepreneurs
- 12:10were squirrels,
- 12:14right? Yes. And so I know when I started my
- 12:17workshop, and also probably the podcast,
- 12:21but more the workshop, it was like, you mean you want me to do the
- 12:24same workshop every month? How
- 12:28boring is that? Yeah. What I found out,
- 12:31thank God, was by doing the same workshop,
- 12:35I go Deeper, not wider.
- 12:39The message is clear. It connects
- 12:42more strongly with the people that it should connect with.
- 12:46The other thing is the workshop is always different
- 12:50because the people that come are different. The
- 12:53interaction and that kind of thing. And, and, and to my surprise, I
- 12:57have people that come multiple times. I mean, each workshop
- 13:00is different. I find different things that interest me. The, the skeleton
- 13:04is the same. Do you know I have the same
- 13:0813 slides? Yep, that's it. Right.
- 13:12But sometimes the stories are different, sometimes the things
- 13:16somebody says. Because my, mine is really a workshop. It's not a
- 13:19webinar. It's interaction. We do an activity, you know,
- 13:23that kind of thing. So it just, you know,
- 13:27anyway. Yeah. About me, because this is about you. So this
- 13:30is, this is, it's key. It's good stuff, though.
- 13:34You're. You're hitting on some good stuff and you're adding value. You are.
- 13:38I think that sometimes the most important
- 13:42thing seems like it's just a ripple. Do you know? But
- 13:46that ripple can become a tsunami if you can get people to
- 13:49focus on it. Yes. And imagine how easy that makes business
- 13:53too, though. Because if it's not up to us to be like, I gotta do
- 13:57all the heavy lifting, oh my goodness, I gotta make fresh content. Every single time.
- 14:02People like you just said, people come to your workshop again and again.
- 14:05They're hearing the exact same thing again and again. Not everybody gets it the first
- 14:09time. Maybe it takes three or four or seven touches and eventually they're like, oh
- 14:13my goodness. Why didn't you say this at the beginning, bruh? I was.
- 14:16It's just, it took every little bit. Right. I say it every time. I've got
- 14:20seven zoom recordings showing you. I said it every time. You want to watch them.
- 14:24You're like, you're in different places, you're open to different things.
- 14:28Yes. Right. And when you find a client
- 14:32that, that you love to work with, you can
- 14:37surpass their expectations. Yes. Because
- 14:41one is excites you. And just like
- 14:44your client learns from you, you learn from your client.
- 14:49And the thing that, that happened recently that you talked about
- 14:53is what I call the refrigerator question, which is so strange,
- 14:58but the idea is the piece that's missing so much
- 15:01when you're just pitching or you start out. I'm so and so I have a
- 15:05five step process. Right. The potential
- 15:09client cannot see themselves working with you.
- 15:13Right. And the refrigerator question has to do with, with
- 15:17a gift that I gave my friends. None of them used it. It was a,
- 15:22an ice roller for your face that you put, you know,
- 15:25Cosmetics into, you know, make you glow,
- 15:29right? And none of them use it. And it was like,
- 15:33how is that possible? Because I'm like, I think it's fabulous, right?
- 15:38But my refrigerator, I have a small refrigerator on my second
- 15:41floor, so I can come out of my bathroom, go take my medicine, do my
- 15:45face, you know, and then go get dressed. But if you have to go
- 15:48downstairs to find your reef, you know, to do
- 15:52this, you're not going to do it. And if I had said, where's your
- 15:55refrigerator? I could have said, all right, let's see how
- 15:59this would work best for you. Maybe you won't use
- 16:03it in the morning. Maybe you would use it in the afternoon. You know, at
- 16:06night when you come home and you just want to have some energy to do
- 16:09something or you want to put a, you know, a toner in or something before
- 16:12bed. Maybe you only use it on the weekend as a beauty routine.
- 16:17Right, right. And that was the question that we. We dealt
- 16:21with during my summit that, you know, we took people from, why am I
- 16:25special? And then, what is my refrigerator question?
- 16:29You know, so the people were actually getting. Getting value
- 16:33people. You know, your. Your potential clients can see themselves working
- 16:37with them. So I'm going to put you on the spot. I've never asked this
- 16:40question of a guest before. Okay, but what is your
- 16:43refrigerator question? What would you say to me?
- 16:47That I could see myself working with you.
- 16:51I knew that was coming. You telegraphed that punch. I'm like, I bet she's
- 16:54going to ask me that question. I bet she asked that. Of all the guests
- 16:57in your life, I've never asked this because this is a brand new thing for
- 17:01me. I mean, this just happened this month. So. Yeah,
- 17:05so what's my refrigerator question? The thing. So if I
- 17:09were to use the analogy that you had, because I'm in
- 17:12the podcasting space and I understand things about the space
- 17:16that. Because I've been on the business end of it for a bit, for me,
- 17:20I have a refrigerator right outside my bathroom. Kind of like you.
- 17:23For the other people, their fridge is in the
- 17:27kitchen like normal people have. And so they'd have to walk
- 17:31a little bit. For those people,
- 17:35when they come to me and they ask, can you get me booked on shows?
- 17:39My refrigerator question for them is, I'll
- 17:43say, yeah, definitely, I can do that. How do you feel about
- 17:47sales right now? Like, let's get
- 17:51emotional. You're talking tactical. You want to know how to get on shows, how to
- 17:55get booked on shows. Awesome. That's tactical, strategic. I want to talk about your
- 17:58emotions. The thought of sales, does that bother you?
- 18:02Does it make you feel ooky, make you feel insecure? Let's talk
- 18:06about that. And the reason why that's such a
- 18:10powerful refrigerator question is because it's a pattern interrupt. First
- 18:14they're thinking, how can I get to the Joe Rogan podcast? How can I get
- 18:17on the top 1% Apple podcast? And then what do I. And it's like, are
- 18:21you afraid to sell your product? What is your service? What do
- 18:24you. What do you want to do? What impact do you want to have? Do
- 18:27you feel like you can sell it? A lot of people say, no, they don't
- 18:31want to. And then when I start talking about why their brains
- 18:34make them not want to sell, they start to open up, and they're
- 18:38like, I have felt that way for a long time. Then we're getting into, like,
- 18:42psychographics. You know, we're not even talking about podcasting anymore. Like, we got to fix
- 18:46the foundation first before we try to build a third floor on this house. Put
- 18:50a refrigerator on the third floor. You got one on every floor
- 18:53now. But they're like, wow, that is really
- 18:57insightful. It's like you've been reading my mind. That is. That is
- 19:01amazing. And the other part to that is
- 19:04that buried in everything that you said is
- 19:08that we move from the tactical into the emotional.
- 19:12And I think that is a big piece that people miss in the selling. Oh,
- 19:16my God, I hate to do this, but, oh, we have a time
- 19:19limit. Okay, so what. What's your free
- 19:23gift? And what are three things that people can do right away?
- 19:27Yeah, free gift is come to my huddle. So I host a
- 19:31huddle every week, Mondays at 11am Central. And what
- 19:34we do is for business owners that want to guest on podcasts and
- 19:38actually make money doing it. And the way it works is, first,
- 19:42I'll talk about some tactics and strategies that would work.
- 19:46And then afterwards, we pair everybody off into breakout rooms
- 19:50of two. They each interview each other, and they send their interviews up to our
- 19:53system. And then we can get you booked on some shows for free. It's a
- 19:57lot of fun. You get to meet some cool people. Every single time people come
- 20:00to this huddle, they're like, I can't believe that I was put in
- 20:04a room with such and such person. It's random. And they're like,
- 20:08turns out they might be my best kind of client. Or it turns out that
- 20:11they went through the exact same kind of trauma I went through. Or,
- 20:15turns out they know Some people that would be a great fit for my business.
- 20:17Like, that happens all the time and people just keep coming back and it's growing.
- 20:21We usually have about 30 people in every week. So definitely come
- 20:26three things that I would say to start doing. Get good at
- 20:29telling a story. Like, really engage people. Connect with them emotionally, but connect
- 20:33with them at their senses. If you can tell a story and make
- 20:37people feel and see and smell and hear and touch and taste
- 20:41the exact same experience that you had, you're going to be doing really well.
- 20:45It's going to help you. Yes, in podcasting, but also public speaking,
- 20:49sales, communication. You know, instead of just rattling off
- 20:53a bunch of facts, it's like, make people feel a certain way. That's really
- 20:56cool. Second thing that I can think of is start
- 21:00hanging around some podcast hosts. I mean, they're really cool people. There's a few yahoos
- 21:04out there, but the vast majority of them are really cool. Start making friends with
- 21:07them, they network like crazy. And as soon as you want to start hitting the
- 21:11circuit, ask a couple and say, hey, who do you know that has a
- 21:14podcast about, blah, blah, can you help me get on there? They're like, yeah, or
- 21:18just come to my huddle. That's a, that's much easier way.
- 21:21Third thing, don't try to get things right
- 21:25the first time. You are not going to get it right the first time. Yeah,
- 21:28I should have led with that. I have spent, I, I
- 21:32spent a large portion of my time in life and business
- 21:36being a perfectionist. And I think that's because I used to be a software tester
- 21:40where if you miss a big fat bug, then
- 21:43people are like, hey, our clients are losing millions of dollars a second.
- 21:47Like, can you fix this? Yeah. So, you know, try
- 21:51to turn that into, hey, we're going to be a business owner where we just
- 21:54have to make like tactical decisions and move quickly and you don't have to have
- 21:58all of the information in front of you. You don't have to be
- 22:02perfect. But the fact that you're moving forward means you're on the right track.
- 22:06So keep doing it. I should have led with that. I always say I'm
- 22:10glad people didn't see my first. You know, the people that are following
- 22:14me now that I, that I didn't start videoing now
- 22:17because they would be like, you know, I mean, I look at some of the
- 22:21first videos I did and it, they're just like cringe worthy. So I'm
- 22:25glad I did them when nobody was following me. Yeah,
- 22:29it's Good. It's good. And you know, and I find too, like, the speed of
- 22:33improvement is going to decrease that amount of time. Like, if you think about,
- 22:37well, this is what life was like for me, you know, a year ago. And
- 22:41then if you think, well, this is what life was like for me a month
- 22:44ago. And it's like, oh, man, it's just as cringe worthy and it's only
- 22:48been like three business days. That means you're really growing, like
- 22:52a lot. So, yeah. So if you feel cringeworthy about
- 22:55the beginning of the day versus now, girl, you are making
- 22:59it. I was a walking dumpster fire. I had a buddy tell me that years
- 23:02ago, six years ago, when I joined his community. He's like, man, this Fritz guy,
- 23:06he comes walking in and none of us knew what the heck he did.
- 23:10Like, oh, he does podcast stuff. He does podcasts in the back seat of his
- 23:13truck and I think he produces them. He's like, he is so clear now.
- 23:17It is without a doubt he knows what he's doing. I'm like, yeah, man, it
- 23:20took me six years. So, yeah, my husband and I
- 23:24first got married and we're talking like 50 years ago.
- 23:28A friend of his said, you know, I actually like Yvonne, but talking to
- 23:32her is like talking to a computer. Because I would be like,
- 23:35oh, I am so different now. Hey, I would have taken that as a compliment
- 23:39back in the old days. I'd be like, thanks, mister. I was like, how much
- 23:42time is this going to take? How much does it cost? Where is it? You
- 23:45know, where are we doing this? How are we doing this? You know, what? How,
- 23:47you know? And I was like, I was
- 23:51brutal. Numbers. Just give me a spreadsheet. Yeah,
- 23:54yeah, exactly. All right, so
- 23:58for fun, when was the last time you did something new for the first time?
- 24:03Goodness, I try to do something new all the time.
- 24:09First time I ever went to there's a horse farm this past Saturday
- 24:13and we went there and we and my wife and my wife Charlotte and I,
- 24:18we haven't been married 50 years, but we've got four daughters ages 10, 12,
- 24:2114 and 16. And so we do things organically here as much as we can.
- 24:25We got a garden and they've been to this horse farm where they
- 24:29have lots and lots of compost. And it's like, it's free. Just bring a truck
- 24:32and load it up. So for the first time, I went to that horse
- 24:35farm and we filled that truck bed up. Our
- 24:39younger two girls were like on top of the cab and they're like,
- 24:43Jumping off into poop, basically. I mean,
- 24:46they're having fun. They have old shoes on. But I'm like, man, this is.
- 24:50This is wealth. Like, I'm really having fun, literally shoveling poop with
- 24:54my family. I've never done that before. I'm a city boy. Second
- 24:58person this week that has told me that they are getting
- 25:02free horse manure. Yeah. Do I have to pay? Well? Do I have to pick
- 25:05something else? Like, do I need to pick something? No, no. I'm just. I'm like,
- 25:08you already had a poop story. Come on, try again, Fritz. Yeah, no, no, that
- 25:11was out on a podcast, you know, and I'm in the middle of an
- 25:15urban city, so, you know. Yeah, that's not. That's, like,
- 25:19not a thing for me. Right. All right. I
- 25:23gotta give the commercial. All right. And so for
- 25:26those of you that are here, the first thing I want to make sure you
- 25:29do is that you subscribe and that you share and you engage this
- 25:33podcast on social media. And one of the
- 25:36reasons that I did it is I designed it to help supercharge your
- 25:40business through true connections. And it's our way of giving back to
- 25:44this vibrant community and fueling your quest for growth and impact.
- 25:48So I hope you will continue to. To join me for the one small change,
- 25:52and let's see how the tiniest shifts can yield monumental
- 25:55transformations. And there are some. If you listen to the
- 25:59first episode, that'll tell you why, you know, where I started. And there's
- 26:03some individual episodes that are coming up
- 26:07that. That I do, because I. I like to talk, and
- 26:10I have to try to. Not to talk over my guests. So I do some
- 26:14on my own as well. So, Fritz,
- 26:18what are the last. Some last words that you can give people? Some
- 26:22words of wisdom or quote, you know, a quote that you like or something like
- 26:25that that people can. Can use. Oh, here's some
- 26:29wisdom. As business owners, your best clients are going to
- 26:33come to you with what they think is the problem. It's almost
- 26:37always a symptom. Go to the doctor. I'm hurting.
- 26:40Oh, well, I've got a headache. Awesome. Well, if a doctor
- 26:44prescribes a painkiller for you, that doesn't actually solve
- 26:48the problem. The pain is an indicator of something else. Maybe you've got a brain
- 26:51tumor and that's causing the issue. Ibuprofen is not
- 26:55going to solve it. So you can assume that people are going to respond to
- 26:59the pain. They're going to come to you, and they'll say, I need help getting
- 27:02this. Okay, well, here's the actual problem. Dig
- 27:06deeper. Don't give them what they're asking for. Give them what
- 27:10will actually help them and explain why it's going to help them.
- 27:13You will set yourself apart as a provider of an actual
- 27:17holistic solution and not just another drug dealer.
- 27:21So, boom, Mic drop.
- 27:24Dig deeper.
- 27:28We are so in sync. I just did a
- 27:32post this week. Are you solving the right problem? Yeah. Or are you solving
- 27:36the wrong problem? Something like that. All right, guys, we
- 27:40could go on and on. And after we're finished, this, we might.
- 27:44So I got a whole hour booked.
- 27:48I mean, we only get in together for 30 minutes. We got time today. Yeah.
- 27:52So, everybody, I. I just want to remind you that
- 27:55change can be simple, but it's not always easy. And it
- 27:59requires courage and resilience and a willingness to step out of your comfort
- 28:03zone. For me, if I'm not filling the willies
- 28:06or feeling a little bit uncomfortable when I'm doing something, it means I'm
- 28:10either complacent, I'm stagnant, or I'm just doing. You know,
- 28:14I'm just being robotic. So step out of your comfort zone.
- 28:17Take a chance. It's worth it. It will pay off. Do a small
- 28:21change. Right, Because a small change,
- 28:25if done correctly and over time, will lead to
- 28:29transformation. So keep
- 28:32joining us for the one small change, and until then,
- 28:37stay very, very curious. I'll see you soon.
- 28:41Thanks, Fritz, so much. Thank you.
