Hi !

Yes the HBO show

We're getting right to the point: how do you decide what business you want to build? There's so much advice out there that it's hard to know who has your best interest at heart. So I'm going to break down the difference between volume businesses and niche businesses, and how they each relate to revenue. Using examples from service providers and product differentiation, I explain the strategies and considerations behind each type of business. Whether you're looking to reach a wide audience or cultivate deep relationships, there's something for everyone. I'm going to tell you exactly how you can discover ways that you can elevate your business and attract the right clients. ▶︎ Watch the Video Podcast Here! 00:00 — Intro 00:57 — The Difference Between Niche & Volume Businesses 07:24 — Passive Offers 09:24 — Templates & Bundles 10:33 — Custom & High Touch Offers 12:32 — Beyonce Your Business 14:27 — The Big Price Resources: Outliers: The Story of Success by Malcolm Gladwell The Doers Portal Team AP Consulting Team AP Resource Shop The Roundtable Freebies _____ Into it?

In this episode, I had the pleasure of interviewing Ariel Schiffer from DreamProCourses. We had an open and honest conversation about the realities of entrepreneurship and the challenges that come with building a business, even if you are objectively successful. Ariel shared her experiences and lessons learned, including the importance of enjoying the journey and staying grounded in what you love on the days you want to burn it all down. We also discussed why we all need to set boundaries and the long-term commitment required in course creation. It was inspiring to hear Ariel's perspective and her encouragement to dream big while staying realistic. Tune in to this episode for valuable insights and relatable stories from an experienced entrepreneur. ▶︎ Watch the Video Podcast Here! 00:00 — Intro  02:50 — Welcoming Ariel  05:55 — Instructional Design  11:57 — The Nuances of Course Creation  13:12 — What Is & Is Not Important to Have in Your Course  17:38 — Tips to See Immediate Results with a Low Budget 20:59 — Momentum then Strategy  24:12 — Let's Talk College  26:22 — Future Plans 31:31 — Being an Agency Owner  37:05 — Rest 40:23 — Should We Burn it Down? 45:30 — Rapid Fire Questions Resources: Follow Ariel on IG @ariel.schiffer DreamPro Online Course Creator Follow DreamPro on IG @dreamprocourses New Takes on Creating a Course: The Doers Portal Team AP Consulting Team AP Resource Shop The Roundtable Freebies _____ Into it?

Now, the title of this episode might catch your attention, but let me be clear from the start: it's not true. I didn't actually make $550,000 in one month, and I definitely don't have just one tip to share with you to achieve that kind of success. So why am I doing this? Well, I'm testing something. I want to see how people react to these kinds of claims, and I'll be sharing the results on my Instagram. You see, we're all constantly bombarded with stories of massive success and overnight riches. We're always looking for shortcuts, for that one magic formula that will help us achieve extraordinary results. And I get it, I want to know too. But here's the truth: it's not impossible to make $550,000 in a month, but it's not as easy as one tip or one trick. I want to share three things that I know can actually help you on your journey to success. And no, they're not quick fixes or magic formulas. They're practical, realistic approaches that have worked for me. Are you ready? Let's dive in. ▶︎ Watch the Video Podcast Here! 00:00 — Intro 02:10 — Clickbait Titles 04:57 — What Really Grinds My Gears 07:30 — Red Flag 1 08:07 — Red Flag 2 11:06 — Mindset 13:50 — Growth Method #1 15:44 — Growth Method #2 17:48 — Growth Method #3 Resources: The Doers Portal Team AP Consulting Team AP Resource Shop The Roundtable Freebies _____ Into it?

I am so excited to introduce you to one of the most incredible wedding photographers I have met: Haley McDevitt. A former VIP Day client of mine, we dive deep into her journey as a wedding photographer and entrepreneur. Haley opens up about the challenges she faced when she first came to Team AP Consulting last December, and how she overcame them with determination and resourcefulness. Haley's creativity and talent shine through in her content creation on TikTok. Taking on video content created a massive change in her business Perennial Photography, and I personally have been obsessed with Haley's TikTok videos and the valuable tips she shares for anyone looking to nail their photoshoot.

In my twenties, I made a commitment to work as hard as humanly possible, and boy, has it paid off in my thirties. I'm now running successful businesses, saving money, and having a blast along the way.
