Speaker 1This is the Road to 1 Million. I'm Ryan Daniel Moran. Some of my followers have been following my content for years, and they've been waiting on the sidelines for the right time or the right idea in order to get off the sidelines and into the game. One of those students is a woman named Jules, who has participated in our Facebook groups, who has followed my content and been active in engaging with my work on social media. But she has never joined one of our courses, she's never gone through our trainings, and she's never given me the opportunity to coach her until just recently. Jules and I got on a call when she got off the sidelines and into the game and attended a coaching call inside of our mentoring community, which is called The 1%. This is a community where we are helping people on their journey. We're helping them take the road to $1 million. And since this was the first time that I got to engage with Jules one-on-one, I wanted to leave her with a very clear plan of how she could start to execute her road to $1 million. And at the beginning of this conversation, she comes in a little bit confused, a little bit pulled in multiple directions, and I decided internally that I wanted this to be the shift from 1 million to 1 million. And I wanted this to be the shift from 1 million to 1 million. Because I knew so many people who were watching and so many people who were following my work can relate to exactly what she was struggling with. So in this call, we clean up the direction of her brand, the exact products that she's going to launch in order to set the foundation for a million-dollar business. We talk about her launch strategy, and we leave her with a crystal clear plan of her million-dollar business. If you can relate to Jules and you feel like you have been waiting for the right time to get into this game, take inspiration from this call and come to one of our coaching classes inside of the 1%. And I'm very confident that you'll leave with the same amount of clarity that Jules left after this discussion. I hope you find inspiration in this coaching class with Jules. Jules, welcome to the 1%. You're on the show. Hi, everyone. You're a longtime lurker. I'm so glad to have you. What made you decide to join? I mean, you've been following my work for years. So what made you decide to finally join?
Speaker 2I think I wanted to join. I think when I first came by, I just didn't have the finance, just wasn't in a good place for it. So I went around. I was part of ASM. So I was working on launching a first product. And then I went from there and then tried out a few other different models. But I always came back to you. Well, thank you very much.
Speaker 1I take that as a compliment. Well, tell me what you're working on and how I can help.
Speaker 2Okay, so right now I am focusing on the Facebook challenge. I've had a couple of calls with Justice in the past couple of weeks. And I'm just focusing on the person, just focusing on finding my person. I'm still a bit unsure about what my three to five products are. But I believe that once I have find my people, it's going to be a lot easier.
Speaker 1That's right. So do you want to find them right now? Yes. Okay, tell me what you're thinking about.
Speaker 2So right now, I'm just documenting on TikTok. I am doing my landing page for the Facebook group, and I'm emailing my existing list, which
Speaker 1is like 40 people. And are those 40 people, are those journal buyers? Or are those?
Speaker 2So I think half of them are, and then a lot of them are people I've just connected with for the past year or so.
Speaker 1Okay. And what's the thread that ties? All together, like, why are they following you? Why are they on your email list?
Speaker 2I think mostly because we are on a similar path toward building a business that will allow us freedom. And we connect with our entrepreneurs.
Speaker 1Yes, yes. Okay, got it. Okay, cool. So keep going. Where are you? Where are you thinking about going in terms of who you're going to target for this
Speaker 2business? So initially, it was entrepreneurs, like aspiring entrepreneurs, and then in the past week, I think I've switched that to being pivoting that to being high achievers that experienced depression.
Speaker 1Oh, interesting. Tell me more about this.
Speaker 2So Justice did a bit of digging, made me cry.
Speaker 1Justice will do that. Justice will make you cry.
Speaker 2He brought me all the way back to when I first came up with the idea for the journal. And that was a really, really hard time in my life. So we talked about that for a good like, you know, 30, 40 minutes. And then I was like, okay, I'm going to do this. And that's where I felt like it wasn't when I was trying to be an entrepreneur. It was when I was just trying to get out. I was just trying to solve the pain and get away from the pain. And that's where I was.
Speaker 1So I'm really liking where this is going. So let's just play with this for a second. Let's just say people are going through a hard time. People are going through a change, whether that's entrepreneurs or parents or whoever it is. It's just people who are in transition and going through a hard time. What else? Now, I recently went through this. I went through a lot of changes in the last year. So what would someone like me or someone like your person buy or seek when they're going through this transition, when they're going through a hard time?
Speaker 2I've asked myself this a lot. And for me, if I thought about when I was in that position, I wasn't looking for any products. I was looking for friendship. I was looking for like a lot. I was looking for someone to connect with. And that's why I think doing the challenge and connecting with people are going to be that first step because that's what sort of- Hold on.
Speaker 1You're very quickly going into the how. Okay. You're very quickly going from how I serve this person to how I get as many of these people as possible. All right. We can get there, but let's stay in what this person needs, wants, and what they might buy. Friendship and community is one sector of this. So, Yeah. I can ask, I will ask you two questions. You can answer them however you want. Okay. What does someone buy in this, or what does someone seek when they're craving friendship and connection? And, or what else does this person buy or seek besides connection? You can answer either one. That's really tricky.
Speaker 2I thought it would just be, anything that would boost my productivity or mindset. Because these are my achievers.
Speaker 1At the time you thought that, right? Yeah. Okay. So, what did you seek or buy while trying to boost your productivity?
Speaker 2Well, I was always eating healthy stuff. Okay. Snacks. Yeah. I made sure I exercised every day. Yeah. I can't think of anything else. I didn't really consume much. I was just- Did you take any supplements? Um, just- Just probiotics and-
Speaker 1Okay. And why, so, so why did you take probiotics? Jules, I think you're sitting really close to something. And so, I'm going to be a little pedantic in this conversation because I think you're really close. And for those of you who are watching, I predict that you are about to have some braingasms watching Jules. And, and Jules, I'm not picking on you, but I'm picking on you a little bit. Jules is one of those people that has been following my work for a long time. And thinking about this for a long time, and you're about to see some things click. And I want you to tune into this because some of you have been thinking about it for a long time, and you're about to see how close you are. Okay. So, Jules, you mentioned snacks. Yeah. You mentioned probiotics. And I, there's something interesting here. Why did you take probiotics while you were going through a hard time?
Speaker 2I think I just had that quick moment. So, I take probiotics because I've always, I've had gut, I guess, issues and problems with digestion for a while. And even before, three years ago, before I was in this stage, I was in university. And that was when I first ever encountered depression, anxiety. And what I learned going from my psychologist was that anything else happening in my brain, my gut would feel it. Yes. She's getting it. She's seeing it, ladies and gentlemen. She's seeing it. Now, if I was stressed or whatnot, my stomach was stressed and I was always bloated. I was having, um, just, I couldn't eat anything. I was really, really frustrated to the point where I was hurting myself. I was really, I just wanted to rip my gut. I just want like a different, I just wanted a stomach transplant. I just, I just really didn't like my stomach. And I kept blaming on the fact that like I had bad digestion issues, but it was all in here. It was all in the mind. And, even now I see that when I'm feeling happy, I don't have as many stomach problems. Yes. I don't, I don't think about my stomach. I don't focus on like what's going on in my stomach. I'm just chasing things that excite me or things that have made me happy.
Speaker 1Yes.
Speaker 2So Jules, let me, let me ask
Speaker 1you, let me ask you something else. Okay. Do you know where serotonin is made?
Speaker 2No, I don't. No, I don't.
Speaker 1No, I don't. hey you see where i'm going with this yes okay so oh i'm so excited right now jules
Speaker 2so jules probiotics yes
Speaker 1this is great because i finally
Speaker 2have a second thing that actually i feel really strongly about that okay probiotics
Speaker 1um okay all right so so we now have a couple things that you feel strongly about but do you see how this is very quickly becoming a mental health brand like journaling can be very effective for mental health taking care of your gut can be very good for your mental health you mentioned exercise you mentioned healthy snacks these are all things that matter you can probably also look up the studies between mental health and dark chocolate mm-hmm right so these are all consumables around mental health plus a journal is there anything else that might start to round out what would make it easier for someone to take care of their mental health a big
Speaker 2one for me was meditation um a product for that it was mostly like listening to uh yeah meditation podcasts and i subscribe to headspace so i'm trying to think of like
Speaker 1something physical um i mean there are like um i sometimes use there's this meditation spray spray it on each nose and it sort of like helps relax you during meditation okay that's one now another thing i want to bring up with you though jules is you you may i'm going to use the community example on this you said people really need community if you focus on the community but you don't worry about making it the product it is a way to really build a raving audience that loves your stuff without having to monetize the community you could say the same thing about meditations for example if you have a partner or a team member or a community member who's who does guided meditations and you release them and you release them for free you're still serving that person and that person becoming a raving fan even though they're not giving you money and does that make them more likely or less likely to buy a meditation cushion from you or a greens powder from you or a probiotic from you makes it more likely would you agree with that yes so your job is to now see the person struggling with depression and say how do i serve this person you've given me several products that you feel conviction about and then you have these other ways that you can serve them that build audience that build community in service of that person how are you feeling right now excited
Speaker 2i've got i have um you know within a facebook group and then just seeing all the different ways that i can serve you during that challenge as well throughout the week and meditation was one of them just offering them all the guides and resources that i had when i was going through that time yes and helping them move just from the position of being a dark spot to feeling like hope is there and they can start the transition to moving to abundance and
Speaker 1do you remember when you were depressed how much you just wanted a glimmer of hope
Speaker 2yeah yeah like
Speaker 1like a glimmer of hope meant everything
Speaker 2yeah it was all i had and can you
Speaker 1imagine a business jewels where your job was to be the glimmer of hope for people who are in despair now what would that look like that looks like saying there are lots of ways to start to turn this ship around and i studied all of them and my job is to give you a few things that can be that glimmer of hope and sometimes that is just taking the pre-workout that allows you to go for a freaking walk sometimes that is the sleep supplement that is really good that is really strong so that your morning is 10 better sometimes that is the meditation spray that gives you a 20-minute break to yourself sometimes that is the gut supplement that allows your body to produce more serotonin right this is your business not mine i'm just riffing off some of the ideas we've talked about so that could be the journal that gets somebody back into a better mental place so all of these are glimmers of hope and how awesome is it that you get to build a business that creates glimmers of hope for your audience does that make you want to go in on serving these people yes yes yeah does that make you want to interview people who have had transformation stories about wanting to end their lives and sharing their medications or their processes or their thought loops that helped them transition into getting their life back does it make you want to do that
Speaker 2yeah 100 does
Speaker 1it make you want to create content about the despair you felt and how you overcame it and work and be in the comments with people who are struggling does that make you want to do that yeah it's it's
Speaker 2um i think more than anything it's making me feel emotional that that's where it's it's hitting so i know that this is going to be a
Speaker 1painful thing yeah now let me ask you something jules this is going to be a little bit of a weird question yeah um if you had that business and you only made 10k a month profit would you be happy running the business fucking happy yeah
Speaker 2yeah and and
Speaker 1i asked that specifically because um to me and in this business 10k a month is not a lot it's if if you don't have a ten thousand dollar month within about six months you're just not making decisions you're just you're just not moving forward so if you only ever got to the point where it was profiting ten thousand dollars a month but you were happy running this business it's still a win for you which is what you're telling me but i am here to tell you and please get this please tattoo this in your brain if you can focus on the business that you're really happy running not the one that you think will get you to a profitability number if you just focus on building the business that you're really thrilled to be running you will blow through the ten thousand dollars a month and here's why because you'll care about your person you'll care about your product you'll do the things that make a business grow and you won't be doing them from a place of wanting to get something you'll be doing them from a place of creating real value and transformations for
Speaker 2these people yeah i see it i do like i i think making 5k in profit was just my goal for the longest time that's all i wanted it's all i
Speaker 1want i mean i want you to delete that goal a because that goal is way too small yeah and and b because that goal is not helping you move forward it's it's simply not because you shared with you told me this i don't know this you told me that joining the one percent was a difficult financial move for you recently the one percent is not expensive so you having this goal of five thousand dollars a month profit it's not giving you the money to do it it's giving you the money to do it it's giving you the money to do it it's creating you to an abundant place in fact it that's like you have a very low bar for yourself because you're used to operating in a little bit of scarcity right so i want you to flip the whole thing and i want you to start thinking about how do i create a business and a path for people that gives them glimmers of hope and when you ask that question rather than how do i get to the 5k a month the business will grow yeah and like i'm just gonna i'm just gonna flow a little bit more if let's just pretend that in your brain you were able to really let go of the goal and you were really committed to creating unbelievable products and and and just serving these people and just sharing your heart with them because i know you care if you if that was your only focus i guarantee you somebody reaches out and is like jules i really like what you're doing are you taking on any investors right now i guarantee you that there would be an influencer that reached out to you and be like you want to come on my podcast i really like what you're doing mm-hmm i promise you that stuff will happen yeah and those are the things that will just crush 5 000 a month this is like you'll be like that was cute but you have to do it because it's the business you want not because it will bring to the to the
Speaker 2result yep yep 100 i think it was a whole mindset shift i think in the past year or two where i've stopped thinking about the 5k the 10k and now it's just about finding my people so i definitely i am thinking a lot bigger now in terms of what i want to create what i want to build um it's no longer about this 5 or 10k although i know if i had 5 or 10k if i was making 5 10k a month i'd be happy but um it's no longer the goal it is
Speaker 1you let me just clean up that thought a little bit because there was some there's some gunk in that thought so what you were what you're really saying is if the business was you producing five to ten thousand dollars a month you'd be satisfied with what you could take off the table with this business not i would be happy yeah but like that's that's all you need in order to feel like you're on the right track which is amazing because now you can roll everything into this business you can just go hard on this business giving to people and rolling out more products and jules i i cannot overstate how quickly this can happen if you just tune into that and that is your only aim yeah
Speaker 2picking up what
Speaker 1i'm laying down yes no
Speaker 2that's what i was saying about if i had that 5k 10k that's when i would leave my job i would go into this full time i can actually use that to then reinvest reinvest reinvest and make things bigger
Speaker 1and you don't need to do it right now you you don't need to quit the job right now you don't need to go all in right now your job right now is just is to start creating glimmers of hope with your products your content with your comments with your interactions in fact if you don't have a name for this business glimmers of hope is a pretty good name
Speaker 2i do need a brand name so
Speaker 1okay i love it thank
Speaker 2you ryan jules i'm so excited
Speaker 1you're here and i want you to like i first of all we so got your back right like we so have you you're in the right you're in the right place but but also like i can see it so my job is to hold that for you until you believe it as much as i do but i will remind you this business is a layup sometimes we need to be reminded that we're on the right track it's this man's opinion and i don't know everything but i know building million dollar businesses pretty well i can tell you i believe this is a very good track for
Speaker 2you thank you ryan i need
Speaker 1that appreciate you all
Speaker 2right see you
Speaker 1jules yeah heck of a first call for jules wouldn't you say
Speaker 3and now a quick word from dr travis ziggler one of our members from the capitalism.com community i'm dr travis ziggler and along with my wife dr jenna ziggler we started a brand called i love we had our exit in june of 2021 so that was a huge milestone for us both from making us financially free to getting us out of debt student loan debt that we've had since we became doctors in optometry school and when we sold we were doing close to 150 000 a month i started with capitalism.com back in 2017 2016 around that time and i joined the tribe first which was the equivalent to the incubator now the biggest thing and i think this is the fear that brings us all back is they're they're afraid of investing and getting that return on your money and so my fear of investing in myself i'd never done anything like that up to that point and my wife wasn't there and i joined without consulting her was, I don't recommend doing that, but it was probably one of the best decisions we've ever made because it's just amazing what an investment in yourself with capitalism.com has done for us. Nothing changes after like an exit or a financially freeing exit or anything like that. But how is our life different from joining capitalism.com? It's our therapy. Ryan is known as the entrepreneur's therapist for a reason. And it's because when you talk to him, he gets you out of your own head. But if you join, this is a proven system. I mean, people have gone through this and they've, they've come out the other side better. If you join this and you don't get results, it's up here. It's not, it has nothing to do with the course. It has nothing to do with the people that are in capitalism.com. It has to do with you. You. You need to look in the mirror because you can get the exact same course as the person sitting right next to you. And you guys will both have two different results. And it's all because the mentality that you take into the course, if you go into it or joining the networking or the mastermind, if you go into it with a negative attitude that this isn't going to work, it's not going to work for you. So don't join it. But if you go in ready to go, it's going to work. It worked for me. It's going to work for you too. It's just, you got to steer or jump over the mental hurdles because believe me, it's going to work for you too. Believe me, you will hit roadblocks. Like you wouldn't believe both in your personal life and in your business life. And that's what this is here for. It's here to help you get through those.
