Instagramming for Clients and FREE Hotel - Zach Benson - FHR #330

Free hotel trips and thousands of followers are just some of the things Zach Benson specializes in: Instagram and Influencing. With his knowledge and expertise in these two areas he helps big names like Russell Brunson and Gary Vaynerchuck dominate their social media presence. Zach Benson tells Dave today how the Funnel Hacker community can dominate Instagram through simple reposting and crediting. Of course, he also walks you through how to get free hotel rooms as an influencer as a bonus for you guys. Now about those hashtags, you're doing them wrong. While it does seem like a no-brainer to jump into where your dream customers are, but not when it's a red ocean. If you're an account with only a measly couple thousand or even tens of thousands of followers Instagram isn't going to put you at the top of lists with other accounts with hundreds of thousands of followers. You have to find out where the niche, blue oceans lie in the niches after all. When I interviewed Zach, Co-founder of Assistagram.us, he shared with me a hack of finding these niche hashtags. As you're looking up the hashtags to attach to your posts (and this goes for all platforms) you look up the hashtag that has an average amount of posts. Now it's not that you're aiming for the low-hanging fruit here. No, you're finding the places where people are missing out on. If you have anymore questions on hashtagging, then you're in luck. Mr. Benson wrote an article on hashtags for Foundr.com just for you. "I always tell people to begin with the end in mind. Think about the kind of people that you want to target and get in your funnel." Some Topics Discussed This Episode: Becoming a Tribe Influencer Zach's emails to get 5-Star hotels for free Instagram Punishes Automation Engagement Groups, the Pay to Play The Repost Travel Account "By reposting people's beautiful content onto your page and giving them credit you can grow your following fast and using these accounts to get free travel like I do." You might think that simply reposting other people's content is cheating. In reality though, you're ahead of the curve. You're not just simply copying content though and plastering it as your own, you're creating something that Zach calls Repost Instagram Account.

How Many "Cults" Have You Joined? - Dave Woodward - FHR #329

We all join CULTures throughout our lives, Apple is a CULTure you've undoubtedly heard of. Do you know many people who have a Mac yet don't have an iPhone? They have RAVING FANS, and if you want to dominate your market you'll need some raving fans of your own. "I want you to start thinking about the customer experience, the customer journey. How excited are your customers about working with YOU. What is the pain that you solve?" - Dave Woodward I for one am in LOVE with the Albert Tennis Shoe. This is weird for me because I am NOT a clothing guy, I simply have little to no connection to what I wear. My connection to them though is how they've developed a cult-like following with still being a relatively small company. They are a great model to emulate. They do what every great brand needs to: DELIVER ON WHAT THEY PROMISE. I have yet to find anything as comfortable and functional as this brand of shoes for the same price. Identify what your CULTure needs and then intentionally deliver. Some Topics Discussed This Episode: Your RAVING Fans The Everyday CULTures You Are In Investing In Your Current Customers Hooking People Onto Your Value Ladder What Your Cost to KEEP Your Customer? "Make sure that you treat existing customers the same or even better than new customers." - Keith Cunningham Don't treat people like you're a phone company is all I gotta say. All they are focused on is getting those new clients to increase their revenue and couldn't care less if you left. Why should they care? You'll find nearly the same care in every big name cell provider. When you think back to your clients' experience is it similar to this?

Here's your host Dave Woodward. Come 00:18 back to Funnel hacker radio. I'm actually down in Austin, Texas and right now I have been attending a four day MBA program put on by Keith Cunningham. I was referred to this by, uh, Jerrick Robbins and it's been a crazy, interesting kind of experience going through this. But while I was coming out, I was trying to record some of the ideas and thoughts recently, um, as we kind of transitioned to this next phase, a funnel hacker radio. I want to talk a little bit about culture and soon I'll come back to, I'll do a podcast or two just on the things I've learned from Keith Cunningham, brilliant guy. Do you have an artist? Got His book, uh, take a look at the road, less stupid, but I want to talk to you a little bit about this whole concept of culture. So we're going to be the process of making a transition here in the podcast over the next couple of weeks into this idea of, of really focusing on how do you build a massive following and a culture. 01:15 And for us it's going to be join us on our journey from 70,000 to 100,000 rabid fans or a funnel hackers or buildings, whole culture. For us it's again, it's, it's a journey from 70,000 to 100,000 excited culture of building funnel hackers. So that's our whole focus and I want to make sure you understand some of the things we're going to be going through. But to do that, I need to give you a little bit of backstory, some backstory on some of the different quote unquote cults that I've joined. And the, and I use it because it's more as a, not in a religious standpoint, but more than nice. This whole idea, we talk a lot about culture because if you've read Russell's book about expert secrets, you understand the importance of really building a following that is almost cult like following almost to the point where people will literally follow because they're so excited about it. 02:09 So there's four different ones I want to talk to you about. Um, two I joined a long, long time ago and two I've joined just recently. So the first one I probably joined, Gosh, uh, it's probably been almost 10 years now and that was apple. Apple was by far one of the most exciting companies to follow and look at and to see how they built this crazy business. Most people really thought they were in the business of creating computers. And that's really what they were known for it first. But then Steve jobs had this amazing ability to build more of a marketing company then actual hardware company. And in doing so, he built a marketing company that right now actually doesn't even produce their own products. They actually outsource all their products, but because of the marketing company they built and because of the passion

During family vacation to Moab, UT for Spring Break, Dave sits down with his son Chandler to talk about the importance of publishing and how content reflects and creates belief. "Whoever controls content, controls belief" Some Topics Discussed This Episode: Content Reflects and Creates Your Beliefs Your childhood content WAS your Role Model The Importance of Publishing 30 Days of Funnels Content - One Funnel Away Challenge What is your content inventory? "The content you personally control, determines the beliefs you currently have" Important Episode Links: One Funnel Away ChallengeDotCom Secrets Book Episode Transcript: Speaker 1: Welcome to funnel hacker radio podcast where we go behind the scenes and uncover the tactics and strategies top entrepreneurs are using to make more sales, dominate their markets and how you can get those same results. Speaker 2: Here is your host, Dave Woodward. Hey Every welcome back to funnel hacker radio. This is going to be kind of a crazy episode. I am literally in my sister's House in Utah with my son Chandler. It's early in the morning. Everyone else's sound asleep. We're just coming back from spring break. We've been down in Moab, Utah, uh, literally enjoying the beautiful surroundings of Moab and arches and uh, just spent a couple of days down there on razors, driving all over the crazy rocks, hiking, mountain bike riding Can's back of superstore because got beat up yesterday and I'm just sore because I'm not a shape. But anyways. Well we thought his mood actually, oh, Shannon brought this up to me that week and a half ago and I've been thinking about all weekend. You know what, I need to do a podcast about this. So the topic we want to talk about is how do you actually control belief? Now there's a couple of different ideas and theories behind this, but I think Chandler said it best. A laughter, listen to podcasts from Stevens. All right. Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah. So Steven was talking about it and um, after reading this book called, uh, from Ryan holiday, it talks about this concept of um, whoever controls content controls belief. And one of my favorite ways to think about that is, uh, and he actually mentioned it as well as, as both being religious people and uh, actually going out and like we actually went out and actually, so I spent two years serving a mission for my church. And on that mission we, we taught people, taught people, and those entities see people who would believe we're the ones who are consuming the content. And you think of anyone who goes into disbelief. I think any religion, think of anything you're doing, it's because you're not consuming that content. You're not consuming that thinks. And so when we thought a lot about this podcast was talking about exactly like how do you control belief in people. And actually I was thinking this is a super cool as well, is when you were, um, I had a chance to go and actually look at your, um, the legendary marketers you put together and everything you are putting together a was people will these super famous people 10 years ago and it's engineers go back and actually study these out again and she didn't see who's actually still publishing is the ones who were actually still relevant to. Speaker 2: Oh my gosh. It's so funny. Mixed it. I actually had that same conversation with Russell. Um, so let's kind of to, I'm going to talk to real quick guys about this whole idea of the importance of the content. You personally control determines the beliefs that you currently have. So right now, do you think of the people you associate with, the people who you're talking to, the people who, whose books you're reading and people's podcast, you're listening to adventure, attending, all of those things, who's ever content you're consuming is literally whose belief system you're going to essentially adapt. And I think it's important that you become super pretty kind of judgemental about who it is you're actually the content you consume because whoever's content you consume is exactly whose, whose beliefs you eventually will adapt. I getting Chandler is talking about from a religious standpoint, I don't care what your religious background is, but if you take a look at anybody, any religion who has his scriptural content, if you start consuming that content and you start adapting and starting using it, starting to apply in

Here's your host, Dave Woodward. Everybody, welcome back to [inaudible] Speaker 2: 00:18 Funnel Hacker radio. This is going to be a lot of fun. I've got a dear friend of mine on the show today and I want to introduce you to, and this is Amy's Stefanic. Amy, welcome to show. Thank you for having me today. I'm so excited about it. We met down at the shipoffers dinner with the you and your husband mapped a doubt of T&C. Yeah. And it was great seeing him like that.

Speaker 2: 01:43 She's from Chile and it's been kind of, it's been interesting getting to know her. And, uh, when she, she grew up, her mom basically, I guess you would say it was an entrepreneur, but her whole view of this whole entrepreneurial thing was every entrepreneur was broke and he didn't have any concept of a wealthy entrepreneur. And so when she met my son who was really trying to go after the whole entrepreneurial thing, her whole thing was, no, no, you have to stay in college. You have to get a degree. And her getting her degree was real important. So she got that and then she got introduced to this whole entrepreneurial life.
