In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show, I take you inside the vault to share the story behind the very first book in my rare book collection… A first edition Book of Mormon. I paid $150,000 for it, but for me, the value goes way beyond money. This was the book that started my obsession with collecting, but even more than that, it taught me a foundational business principle that I still live by today.
If you’ve ever wanted to build a movement, create a following, or lead a community, then you need to understand this: almost every mass movement in history (religious or otherwise) started with a book. A message…. Some sort of doctrine or manifesto. I break down how this truth applies to you, your business, and your calling. Whether you're a coach, an entrepreneur, or just someone with a message to share, this episode will give you clarity on how to put your stake in the ground.
Key Highlights:
-
Why the Book of Mormon was the first book I ever bought for my collection (and what it’s worth today)
-
The connection between religious texts and modern marketing movements
-
How books like Dotcom Secrets created the Clickfunnels community
-
Why your “heretic message” is what your people are waiting for
-
How to start writing your book or manifesto (even if you’re not a writer)
This isn’t about converting you to any religion, haha! It’s about understanding the power of putting your beliefs into a book, and how that act alone can change the trajectory of your business and your life.
