Hey there everybody. Today we’re talking about how you can have $30,000 worth of business wisdom, business tips, people’s other people’s failures, so you don’t have to make them at your fingertips. And we have a special guest today Gunn Hudson, he’s going to be coming on. And let’s see if we can get started. Waiting for gun. Here we go. Hi, everybody. Feel free to ask any questions below about the online business bundle. I’ve been talking about non stop. And gun is here. Hello.
0:38
Hi, everybody. Wow, that was the first transition went flawlessly. It’s exciting.
0:44
Oh, that’s good. So thanks so much for being here with me today gun is tell everybody who you are and what you’re doing here.
0:53
Good, everybody. As you can tell, I’m originally from Australia. But now I live citizen of the world, I guess you could call me currently in Lisbon, Portugal. So it’s nighttime. And I’ve put together the online business bundle, which you are participating in as well, as I said, we both have educational resources in there. And yeah, usually when I’m not doing the bundle, I help people move offshore and set up their companies and tax structures and things like that. But I’ve been into a lot of my clients are coaches, the rapidly expanding, and we have a lot of clients in Bali and places like that. So there’s a really big culture of online work is there. So yes, a lot of fun.
1:43
Love it. So if you guys want to save money on taxes, right gun, or get involved in cryptocurrency, right? Yes,
1:53
yes, that’s what I’m about.
1:56
Okay, and what we normally talk about on health coach nation podcast, and in general here on Instagram, I work with a lot of coaches too. And I work with them on growing their clientele, and marketing and sales and things like that. And I think what’s so cool about the online business bundle is that it has categories of courses, and it really it hits from start to finish all the foundations you need. So my program, the superhero sales method is in the bundle. And that’s teaching you how to rock your discovery calls, Coach through objections, how to get those calls, what to do before, during, and after to warn a lead up.
And also, we have the mindset, the sales, the marketing, the social media courses, etc. In the bundle. So what’s been what got you thinking, like, I want to put this together for people, and I want to make it really affordable. And by the way, we have our links in our Bibles if you guys want to check it out. But what got you thinking like, I’m going to do this because that’s This is such a massive project. And there’s over 100 course creators and courses in this. So what, why did you make this crazy idea?
Big Things for Big Thinkers
3:08
Yeah, well, I saw a few people in other nations do the idea at the start of the year. And I have some clients who are doing really big things and really, like big thinkers. So I like kind of just taking apart these cool things and seeing like, Oh, well, what’s going on over here. And so I saw people kind of joining together and creating these really attractive offers, I was like, that is unreal. I found myself buying a bundle. That was not something that I needed at all, just because it was such a great deal. Just in case I needed it next year. And I have I have used it since and so it was like it was I was like, wow, this is this is amazing. I wonder if people in the business, they should be interested in this.
So yeah, we’ve spent the last three months rounding everybody up and having a conversation if they’d be interested in joining and deciding what type of mentors and courses and and teachers would like to have in the bundle. And, you know, put it all together. But me personally, I really enjoyed meeting everybody. Because doing this process, I’ve been meeting people such as yourself and all the other awesome creators, and everybody is an expert in as I said in one part of online business.
Power in Collaboration
And so we all have, we’ve all gone through the same journey, and everybody understands what it’s like to have to build a business and how many crazy things that you have to learn at some times when you don’t realize that, like, everyone just wants to do their craft, right. And so there’s all these other parts of business that you have to learn to, to successfully like do your craft. So yeah, it’s been really cool. It’s been really fun. I’ve learned a ton a ton already. So
4:59
love it. Yeah, that’s so true And why not? Like, I love the idea of just making a no brainer offer. And everybody wins. This is such a cool, collaborative, collaborative project. And it’s true that if you want to have a business, unfortunately, you kind of do have, you don’t, if you want to do your craft and do it full time, you do have to learn the sales, the marketing, the mindset you need to have as an entrepreneur, and eventually you can hopefully outsource and scale and get a team and get people who are better at those things than you. But in the beginning, if you’re a solopreneur, right, you kind of have to figure it out. So
5:39
yeah, we even on that note, we even have people who are teaching you how to outsource and scale and all that part too. So it’s pretty cool, because you’re at this. Every skill set is a different skill set. I
5:54
love it. Yeah. And so what have been your biggest lessons, since you’ve started this project?
6:01
Well, it’s to always think on the positive outcome. It has been a roller coaster managing, we got 150 people participating plus, everybody, everybody is a is a person with with their own stuff going on. And so yeah, and then working as a team around the world, there’s four of us working on the project. So we kind of handle it on to the next timezone every night. That’s been very interesting. But this has been a managing such a big launch that is only available for such a small amount of time, there’s a lot of ups and downs.
And so it’s kind of like a year of ups and downs compress into small amount of time. And so it’s been a fantastic, both technical learning journey on the parts of business and, and how to put something like this together, but also a personal, really awesome personal journey to which is just like reflecting and business in general. Yeah, yeah.
7:06
Yeah. So if anybody has questions for gun or for about the business bundle, feel free to put that here. And one thing that I wanted to ask you about a little bit is, when it comes to the mindset you had to have going into this, and that time management, you have to have going into this, do you have any tips or suggestions for people who are embarking on a launch of some kind?
7:33
Yeah, um,
7:37
so the mindset was, I mean, you have to aim for the top and assume the worst. So prepare, or is it like, prepare for absolutely everything to go wrong that you can think of, and, but then still aim for everything to go right. And so we set out at the start to we set out and we created 100 person hit list of who will be the ultimate people that we could contact, we can get everybody, but we got we got really close. So yeah, it’s pretty.
And we hadn’t have aimed that high, we never would have been able to put together such a good good people. Because, yeah, it’s really easy to not even believe that that’s possible to until you go try. And so even like what I say aim for the stars, and you might just fall short line on the moon. So that was definitely, that was definitely awesome. And as far as the time management, for the top one, I can probably use dish for yourself. I think the boss to do it again. So
8:48
maybe we’ll employ you on the next slide.
8:52
Yeah, so, um, this is available for how many more days? Ah,
8:57
four and a half days. I believe the countdown timer is on, depending where you are in the world. Okay, um, I think,
9:06
yeah, here it’s five or four. I, I was surprised. I’m trying to keep up. So everybody,
9:12
I’ve got four hours in four days in 22 hours, so just under five.
9:17
Okay, so links in our files and tell God tell everybody like when it comes to putting yourself out there because this is something where you could get a lot of rejection, or people getting mad at you if something goes wrong or like, blaming you on I didn’t read the emails and I’m participating in this or something, right. And that’s a common theme in anybody’s business. You’re going to get rejection, you’re going to have things that go wrong, like you said, so how do you bounce back from that and how do you like, what’s your tips for handling rejection?
9:57
This is um, this is I’m no expert on this. But what I’ve been so maybe I could be taking some distance yourself. But it’s been really helpful having a team to bounce off really helpful. I’ve always been a solar printer to sustain myself. And often I’ve lent on my my partner probably too heavily at times to be honest. Because really, you know, it’s really nice having somebody or support team support that work. Often that’s colleagues in business, I’ve always joined masterminds and joining a course is a great way to find friends on the same journey as yourself.
But having the first time I’ve had business partners has been really great. Because when one person is in a dip somebody else’s that are mine, I’m like, Hey, man, you just, you just down this little rabbit hole and zoom out, like, I come out of the hole and have a look around, it’s still still flowers out here, you know, like, you just you just done this one model. And it’s one thing that’s been really great. But then as far as the the rejection pace, is just continually reminding myself.
So think like everything, you’d be good doing the inner work and like go to the bottom, it’s like, no matter what happens, I’m always a worthy person. I’m always worthy of love, basically, right? It’s like, the nearly everything, I think. And so even if this went to absolute, worst scenario, like everybody hated me, we lost all the time and resources that we put in. I still remember that, like, I’m a good person, and I’m still worthy of love and life and enjoying myself.
And so just reminding myself that it’s like, it’s like, kind of I have a little conversation with myself and have a little chuckle at, like, whatever is going on in front of me is. Yes, I’ve done a little bit of inner work and stuff over the last year. So that’s been a massive improvement for myself. When I started out, I couldn’t have said that I think so. Yeah,
11:56
that’s really true. I think separating your business self and your business, from your personal identity. And what you are deserving of is
12:05
critical.
12:06
Yeah. And also, when you said earlier about, there’s still flowers around, you got to look for what are your wins, because I think so often, we can just get so caught up in putting out fires, or Oh, my gosh, this happened. Tracking your wins is something I recommend to my clients who are perfectionist and who are always thinking like, I could be doing more, I’m not enough. Because, yeah, just start getting your brain looking for the evidence of Hey, I’m actually making improvements I’m learning along the way, etc. It’s gonna be a much smoother, more fun ride. And at the end of the day, all this is, why are we doing this? yes to you know, have a job, right.
But at the same time, much more than that. It’s about making your impact you’re supposed to make making connections with people putting yourself out there, helping people and everybody in this course has their own unique purpose and legacy they want to leave in and things that they want to teach, which is so cool. And can I just say one of my, can I tell you my my feedback from being a course creator in this bundle?
13:14
I’d love to hear it.
13:15
Okay. So it’s where
13:17
I have to get ready for rejection, right? No,
Preparing to Work
13:20
I’ve given a good. So what I love is that just coming into this, you guys have prepared the course creator so much that it actually inspired me to be like, wait a minute, I could treat any launch like this. The way that you’ve led it, where, for example, they gave us and this will benefit our audience because they like to do launches to you gave us like schedules and gave us so many ideas about what to post about. So you were saying? If you guys have a program or launch you’re trying to put out there, rather than getting stuck in I don’t know what to post today.
Think about Okay, number one. What are the FAQs about this program I can answer in a story or video or something like that? What are the testimonials I can use and talk about and use that as a way to talk about this court? Course? What’s my favorite part about the courses in the bundle? And how can it work in your program? And how can I highlight that or show the behind the scenes or we take doing it putting it into practice? You talked about storytelling and what are the benefits?
Like instead of focusing on the features of this bundle, which is like yes, there’s 100 courses and you get access lifetime and blah, blah, blah, focusing on? What’s the lifestyle you can create with this $147 do you think you’re going to be able to do 100 courses teaching you how to make money online, market yourself, do sales, etc.
Don’t you think you’re going to be able to make that 147 back, this is like a no brainer and think about the lifestyle you could create best case scenario if you implement all these things, right? So focusing on the lifestyle in the benefits and that kind of thing. I also think the there was another, you gave really great email copy. And it was all about overcoming objections. So that’s another type of posts you need to be doing when it comes to a launch.
So just from my perspective, that’s one of the coolest things because it got me excited again, because I’ve just spent, you know, sometimes we get so stuck in our regular things we’re promoting. And we just kind of forget, like, you know, how to spice it up. And so what I loved is seeing all these different ideas for content and, and doing it all each day in different ways of talking about the bundle without kind of feeling like, Oh, I have to talk about the bundle today. Yeah.
Refreshing Feedback
15:42
Yeah. Oh, thanks for that feedback. It’s also refreshing to hear because, as you say, we all get in our little tunnel vision. And so I’m in my tunnel vision of running the bundle. And then I’m also participants, I’m also talking about it. So it’s like, well, it’s all I thought about for three months straight. And so he said, it’s really nice to, to spice it up. And just remember why you’re excited about it yourself. Because that comes out, it comes up in your energy comes out in the way he talks about it. Pretty quickly. People pick up on that. So yeah,
16:14
yeah. Oh, what’s your favorite part of the bundle? We’ll leave? We’ll leave off with some final questions.
16:20
Yeah, I’m actually really excited about. So I put in three courses myself. But some, I don’t mean to promote my stuff. But one of them I’m delivering live the week after the bundle watches. And I’m really excited about that, because my passion. So I’m talking about a squat five days to financial freedom. So it’s kind of how all of the elements of the bundle could fit into your specific plan to getting to financial freedom.
I’m going to be breaking down, like how people can analyze what they have in their life, because not everybody not 100 plus courses is going to be specific to everybody, right? So figuring out how to grab the parts that are gonna really make the difference for yourself, and how that’s going to get you to your goals. I’m really excited to, to go down in detail and and help everyone do that.
But then myself, personally, I actually have this taped down thing that I like, want to book like, I want to put my story into a book. And so there’s a course in in there, we actually have the Ghost Rider of Russell Brunson his book.com secrets. She’s She’s also in the bundle, which I’m really excited to read her stuff. Yeah, and there’s a few areas that I’ve been neglecting my own business. I really need to knuckle down on probably Facebook ads. So or maybe Instagram one of the two. So yeah, I’d love to actually get into that often. This is all all settled down. I’ll definitely have some stuff to get through.
Facebook Group Connections
17:56
Yeah, me too. Me too. And if you guys want to stay accountable, with the courses that you get in this bundle, feel free to join the Health Coach Nation Facebook group, we have more than health coaches in there. There’s life coaches, mindset coaches, etc. online business owners. And so if you go to facebook.com, slash groups slash health coach nation and join us, and you share, you got the bundle, I will I’ll check up on you. I’ll see how it’s going. And I love that you guys are doing a five day live thing, teaching people how to actually implement these courses into a plan. Because that can be phenomenal if they get overwhelmed easily. Yeah, yeah. Cool. Okay, so thank you so much for coming on. And I’m going to ask you one final question. And that would be what’s your top lesson of 2020?
18:47
Oh, this is easy. It’s that every down is an up in disguise. Even if you haven’t just figured what that out, figured out what that is yet. So yeah, 2020 has been a lot of big downs. But retrospectively they’ve actually been ups. So yeah, I think this is one of them. So let me fun. Sweet.
19:09
Well, thank you so much for coming on today. And we’re both here on Instagram. So just I’ll tag you when I post this in my feed and we’ll talk soon.
19:18
Exciting. Thanks for having me.
19:19
All right. Bye bye.
