Marketing Lessons From a $150,000 First Edition “Book of Mormon” | #Marketing - Ep. 75
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.

Why most beginner clippers fail… and what to do instead

Andrew Carnegie: How One of the Richest Men in History Viewed Wealth and Legacy | #Success - Ep. 73
In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show, I take you inside my collection to talk about one of the most influential men in history… Andrew Carnegie. At one time, he was the richest man in the world, and his ideas shaped generations of entrepreneurs and thinkers, including Napoleon Hill. I share some rare books and artifacts from Carnegie, including a signed copy of Around the World and a first edition of The Gospel of Wealth.
But more importantly, I unpack the lessons from The Gospel of Wealth, an essay that had the biggest impact on me from Carnegie’s work. He believed that dying rich was a disgrace, and that wealth should be used to build opportunities for others, not just handed down. I contrast his philosophy with Ayn Rand’s views, and talk about how those ideas play out in business today, especially when it comes to philanthropy, profits, and building something that lasts.
Key Highlights:
How Andrew Carnegie influenced Napoleon Hill and Think and Grow Rich
The core message of The Gospel of Wealth and why it matters today
How I realized Ayn Rand’s philosophy and Carnegie’s approach to giving were actually similar and not contradicting each other
Why charity tied to strong offers works better than guilt-driven giving
Lessons from Carnegie, Rockefeller, and Vanderbilt on building generational wealth
By the end, you’ll see why Carnegie’s vision for wealth still applies to entrepreneurs today, and how you can use these lessons in your own business and life. And if you want my notes from this essay, you can find them below!

How To Turn Your Framework Into an Irresistible Offer With Offerlab | #Marketing - Ep. 72
In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show, it’s the third and final Offer Lab session where I walk you through the piece that ties everything together: becoming an offer creator. If you’ve ever thought you didn’t have anything to sell, or worried that creating an offer was too complicated, this presentation will show you how simple it really is. I break down the process I’ve used over and over again, and the same process you can use to package your story, your expertise, or even someone else’s framework into something valuable.
This is the shift that separates affiliates who make a little money from entrepreneurs who build something lasting. Once you understand how to reverse engineer your journey into a step-by-step map, you’ll see that you already hold the most valuable thing you could ever sell. And if you don’t yet have your own framework, I’ll show you the shortcuts that make it possible to create one today.
Key Highlights:
Why the most successful people in OfferLab are both affiliates and offer owners
The step-by-step method to turn your personal journey into a framework
How packaging changes perceived value (same content, different forms)
Options if you don’t yet have a framework… Partnering or interviewing experts
The Course Secrets bonus that helps you structure and launch your first offer
This presentation is about clarity and action. Stop overcomplicating the process, because you already have (or can quickly create) a framework worth sharing. When you step into the role of an offer owner, you move from just promoting to building something that can grow, scale, and last. OfferLab gives you the tools, but it starts with you creating your offer.

The Overlooked “Old Way” to Sell That OfferLab Brings Back! | #Sales - Ep. 70
In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show, I take you back to the beginning — before Facebook ads, before TikTok, before algorithms controlled everything. I share how we grew businesses in the early days, and how those same principles helped ClickFunnels scale to $10 million before we ever ran a single paid ad.
This is the foundation behind Offer Lab. It’s about partnerships, collaborations, and creating results together instead of relying on expensive, unpredictable traffic platforms. I’ll show you why this shift is the future, and how remembering what worked in the past can unlock everything you’re building today.
Key Highlights:
Why relying on one ad platform is the biggest risk
The pre-Facebook strategies that still work today
How partnerships and co-branded products drive lasting growth
Why Offer Lab was built to make collaboration simple
The truth is, traffic costs are only going up. But collaboration will always win. If you’ve been frustrated with ads, algorithms, or trying to do business alone, this episode will reframe what’s possible and show you a path forward that’s simpler, faster, and way more fun!!

Discovering Laws of Success From The Book That Inspired Napoleon Hill | #Success - Ep. 69
In this vault episode of The Russell Brunson Show, I share one of the rarest book sets I’ve ever purchased: Allen’s Working Plan, written by Irving Allen nearly a decade before Napoleon Hill published The Law of Success. This ten-volume set was sold through direct mail in the early 1900’s, and it gives us a fascinating look at what business leaders and marketers were studying long before Hill’s ideas took off.
I’ll tell the story of how I discovered this set, why I paid $30,000 for it, and what makes it such a powerful piece of history. You’ll also hear the lessons that stood out most to me… Lessons that still apply today if you want to seize opportunities, build confidence, and lead others.
Key Highlights:
How optimism, positivity, and even a healthy ego give entrepreneurs the edge to lead and win
The Andrew Carnegie quote that explains why belief in yourself (even in private) is critical for success
The concept of “cycling” instead of failure, and why great entrepreneurs must go through it
The balance between humility outwardly and the inner belief that you’re superior when competing in business
This book reminded me that success isn’t just about tactics. It’s about mindset! The daily recognition of opportunity, the willingness to stay humble, and the inner drive to believe you can win. These timeless lessons gave me clarity and fuel for my own journey, and I think they can do the same for you.

Secrets of Autosuggestion: Emile Coué’s Thoughts on Reprogramming Your Mind | #Success - Ep. 68
In this vault episode of The Russell Brunson Show, I pull out a rare book from Emile Coué, the man who pioneered the idea of autosuggestion. Long before Napoleon Hill and other New Thought leaders, Coué was teaching how to reprogram the subconscious mind, and the same principles still drive personal growth and persuasion today.
I’ll walk you through the difference between thoughts, outside suggestions, and the practice of autosuggestion… And why the third is the key to real transformation. You’ll hear Coué’s most famous daily phrase, why it works so powerfully, and how this one simple tool can change your mindset, your habits, and even the way you sell.
Key Highlights:
The difference between thoughts, outside suggestions, and intentional autosuggestions
Why autosuggestion works better than affirmations your brain doesn’t believe
The exact phrase Coué taught his students to repeat daily…
Real examples of how I weave in ‘hypnotic’ autosuggestions into my sales presentations and webinars
Coué’s method isn’t just about positive thinking… It’s about taking control of what your subconscious mind believes. When you understand how suggestions shape beliefs, you can use them to transform yourself and to influence others in a powerful, ethical way. This episode connects the dots between a century-old book and the presentations, pitches, and funnels we use today!! It’s insane! You’ll love it!
If you want my notes on the Coué method and a printable version of his daily autosuggestion quote, go to russellbrunson.com/notes and grab it for free!!

Offer Lab: Why Collaboration Beats Competition in Online Business | #Sales - Ep. 67
In this second ‘episode’ of the Offer Lab pre-launch series, I’m opening up about the real reason we created this platform. A year ago, I was burned out, frustrated, and honestly ready to walk away from serving this community. Competition had replaced collaboration, costs were skyrocketing, and entrepreneurship had started to feel lonely again. But in that dark season, a new vision was born… And that vision became Offer Lab.
This episode is deeply personal. I share the story of where the idea came from, why it matters for every entrepreneur, and how it solves the very problems that have been holding so many of us back. You’ll hear how we went from asking “what features can we add” to asking “how do we bring everyone back together?” The answers changed everything.
Key Highlights:
The moment I realized the old model of online business was broken and unsustainable.
How skyrocketing ad costs have crushed margins and left entrepreneurs feeling stuck.
Why I believe entrepreneurship has become lonely again… And how we can fix it.
The behind-the-scenes conversation with Todd Dickerson that sparked the idea for Offer Lab.
How Stripe helped us make the impossible possible: instant payouts across collaborative funnels.
Why Offer Lab is designed to unify all entrepreneurs, no matter what tools or platforms they use.
If you’ve ever felt isolated, squeezed by ad costs, or frustrated by endless competition, this episode will give you hope. Offer Lab isn’t just about making money online. It’s about bringing back the community, collaboration, and movement that made this fun in the first place. Join me as I share why I believe this is the next big chapter for all of us… And how it can change the way you do business forever.
