009: The Art of Making Things Happen with the Real Life Wizard of Oz, Steve Sims

Entrepreneur Magazine labeled Steve Sims as "The Real Life Wizard of Oz" because he has developed a reputation for making the impossible possible.

Steve is an entrepreneur, speaker, coach, bestselling author, and creator of the world's first high-end luxury concierge, which helps his clients' wildest dreams come true.

Getting married in the Vatican, being serenaded by Andrea Bocelli, and taking a submarine to the wreck of the Titanic, are just a few of the unbelievable experiences that he has brought to life.

Steve has spoken for Harvard, The Pentagon, ​and many Fortune 500 Companies. He's also rubbed elbows with the most successful people in the world, including Elon Musk, Richard Branson, Elton John, JJ Virgin, Arnold Schwartzanager, Jay Abraham, Peter Diamandis, and many others!

I wanted to talk to Steve about how he does it. How did a poor bricklayer's son from London get connected with the most affluent and recognizable people on the planet? How does he open up seemingly closed doors and get access to the most exclusive parties, clubs, events, and places?

Steve is a truly unique human being with a great understanding of how sales and marketing really work. He’ll teach you what it takes to sell yourself and make your ideas a reality, regardless of how big or impossible they may seem.
