Rob has interviewed a roster of millionaires, inspirational individuals and notable guests. Tune in today, to hear an explosive lightning Q&A round and Progressive Properties manager of innovation and head of Progressive Publishing, interview with the Disruptive Entrepreneur himself, Rob Moore. Listen now, to hear the behind the scenes insights from the UK’s number one business podcast. KEY TAKEAWAYS Thom: How does it feel now we’ve hit 300 episodes? Rob: Bring on 500! podcasters like Joe Rogan have over a thousand episodes and I want to reach that. Podcasts are hard to measure and difficult to track, but it’s all of the side benefits and people I’ve met along the way, the friends I’ve made, and the amazing things we’ve done. We’ve interviewed some great guests and even launched a podcast agency off the back of The Disruptive Entrepreneur and that’s done over £500,000 in the last few months. We’ve now hit around 1.2million subscribers and it feels really good. Thom: What made you start The Disruptive Entrepreneur when you did? I should have started it earlier. I was listening to podcasts about two years before I started The Disruptive Entrepreneur and in property most people have read or listened to ‘Rich Dad Poor Dad’ by Robert Kiyosaki, and at the time there was ‘Rich Dad Radio’ and Tim Ferris’s podcast ‘The Tim Ferriss Podcast’ and it inspired me to get started. Thom: Is the podcast what you envisaged it would be now or has it changed over the years? Rob: It’s grown its own legs and developed over time. We’ve learnt a lot from our fans and that’s where Rob’s Rants and the Caffeine Cast came from. To begin with, I just wanted to give people creative information and an uncensored outlet to say what I wanted. Thom: What does Disruptive mean to you? Rob: Disruptive means finding a unique way to solve a problem and to serve people. Surprising people so they don’t get bored or predict your next move. To innovate your market, staff and industry before someone else does. To never be complacent or blindsided by external factors. To control your own factors, to be unique, individual and to control your own narrative.

In this very special episode of The Disruptors Podcast, your host Rob Moore welcomes you to this live Q&A mastermind to celebrate the 300th episode of the UK’s No.1 business podcast. Entrepreneurs, tune in and discover how to overcome the challenges you face in business and in life and learn a little bit more about the public speaker, property investor and multi-million-pound business owner that is, Rob Moore. Learn the insider secrets to scaling your business, managing your money and finding the right joint-venture partner in this stripped back Q&A session and find out how you too, can become a Disruptive Entrepreneur. KEY TAKEAWAYS Q1: What is the single best thing you’ve learnt from running your business? Rob: The greatest thing I’ve learned about building a business empire, is managing one’s self and managing your emotions. You have to get yourself in a balanced state and then make the decision, the right decision, for you and for your business. If not your emotion which for us is passion, leaks out with attrition, and that takes clients and staff away from your business. You must Learn how to separate yourself and become self-aware of your emotions, don’t bring your past emotions and grievances into your business, manage and coach yourself to find the right solution and take wise counsel from those around you that you trust. Remember, your business will only grow at the speed that you grow, so compartmentalise your decisions and actions in order to move forward. Q2: What are the tools and software that you use in your business so that you grow & scale? Rob: The thing I’ve found with tools and software is what you need at the start, is not what you’ll need once you’ve scaled. I write down everything that I do as a function and that naturally becomes a manual for your staff to use and to manage, and you do this until you can step out of your business. I tend to use people and empower them,  the three most important staff you will ever hire are an MD (managing director), PA (personal assistant) and a head of Marketing (Marketing Manager). Q3: How do you determine who’s the right person to bring into your business? Rob: There are two answers to this question, usually we only see one polarized extreme due to when we are emotional, but there are equal upsides and downsides to seeking cash for the business, investment in your company or finding a business partner to help you grow. Investment capital and cash injections do not necessarily mean exponential growth, it can mean a lot of wastage and a lot of chaos. When you have money you use money as your resources and when you don't have money you use resourcefulness, creativity and hustle to solve problems. If you’re going to get external partners to try not to lose your creativity and progressively invest in the growth of your business so you don’t lose your desire to be creative. The best partner is someone who compliments your skill set and adds value to your business that you couldn’t add yourself. Align a clear long-term vision with your partner so that you’re working towards the same goals, however, ensure the application is different and diverse to grow your business. Q4: What three pieces of advice would you give your children about money? Rob: The challenge you have as a parent is not, giving the right advice, it’s getting that advice through to them. You need to start really young and subconsciously educate them. Try to read hero based stories and insert the lessons about managing money and spending versus investing in these stories. Teach them as closely as you can to how the world really is and don’t shield them from the world. Q5: How do you action the knowledge you obtain throughout life, and not be busy achieving nothing? Rob: Whilst you’re young take risks, you can afford to take risks and learn from the mistakes. But the downside paradox of personal development is that ‘you should know more’ and you feel like you should know everything. Don’t beat yourself up about it, manage your emotions and allow yourself to fail, it’s where you’ll learn the most. BEST MOMENTS “The best marketing and creativity I’ve ever done is when I’ve had no money” “Our voids create our values and our fulfilment comes from filling our voids and achieving their values. Our strengths and weaknesses are intertwined, you cannot separate them” “The greatest gift you can give your children is to give them a balanced version of the way life is. If it’s been hard for you don’t protect them from that, if it’s been easy for you, don’t make it easy for them” [Business, mindset, entrepreneur, disruptors] VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/ bit.ly/Robsupporter   https://robmoore.com/podbooks  rob.team ABOUT THE HOST Rob Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor, and property educator.

In today’s episode, Rob shares with you his 12-year in the making POWOW product launch model and how you too, can follow this four-step method to successfully launching and scaling any product or service. Discover how to crowdsource your bonuses, spark engagement and build up a limitless desire for your product or service. This model works for any business, as long as you have a compelling offer and you’re launching it at the right time to serve your audience. Learn how to get the conversations going and gain knowledge from your own community. Find out the pain of your customers and learn from it, to create a product that instantly fits their needs and serves their desires. Finally, understand how to weave your story into your messaging and create a buzz around your product and a reason as to why you’re offering it. Tune in today and instantly learn the simple but effective steps to launching your very own product or service. KEY TAKEAWAYS Rob Moore’s Four-Step Launch model Having a product or service people want and you know will sell out - Run a test launch to a smaller audience and action the feedback to create a more well-rounded product. Alternatively, you can crowdsource the title, the bonuses and the main benefits from your community and build knowledge and intuition that will inform your product. Pre-launch - This is the hunger, desire and pent-up urgency that you build before you launch your product or service. Tease your audience and create engagement, don’t over-inform your customers, ensure you drip feed your audience and make them feel special and part of your launch. Get them involved, communicate the logistics and build hype around the release of your product or service. Actual launch - Don’t be scared to relentlessly promote your product or service, send one too many messages rather than one too few. Use your messages to communicate the bonuses and tell the story of your launch and what they get. Make sure to offer value in your marketing messages and not just repeat the same thing over and over, provide value, urgency and logical reasons why they need to purchase. Post-launch - Evaluate the launch and introduce the waiting list, the post-launch is an opportunity for you to reopen your offer and generate additional sales. Try to introduce something new and a reason as to why your offer is re-opening. Incentives people to share/review your product and offer X,Y,Z as a bonus, and as a result, you will super-charge your sales and serve your community. BEST MOMENTS “Scarcity, urgency and time sensitivity are essential to the success of a launch” “Launches help to build desire and if it’s time sensitive you can create a hungry audience, ensure you create a limited amount or only open it for a certain time” “It’s worth considering bonuses, even if you’re in an industry that doesn’t offer bonuses as an incentive” “Always offer scalable bonuses that enable you to serve as many of your customers as possible and create a leverageable” “A pre-launch helps to build the value of your product or service and inspire your audience to get invested in purchasing” “By the time you’re launching you know that your deliverables are certain to serve the desire of your audience. “ [Business, mindset, entrepreneur, disruptors] VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/ bit.ly/Robsupporter   https://robmoore.com/podbooks  rob.team ABOUT THE HOST Rob Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor, and property educator.

"I'm calling shenanigans on that one... at worst I think its pseudo-spiritual-hippie nonsense." In this episode of The Disruptive Entrepreneur Podcast, Rob counters the idiom "It's all about the journey". Rob emphasizes that it isn't ALL about the journey but that it is equally about the destination. Rob talks about the importance of setting goals – how it makes the journey worthwhile and goal-driven and how it could lead to your own happiness. Discover also how to maintain the balance between the pursuit of your own happiness and the happiness of others. KEY TAKEAWAYS Setting up your goal is important since goal = destination. To embark on a journey, you must know what is the manifested results to make every grind and wait worth it. If we 100% believe in the saying “It’s all about the journey”, no one will dare to strive, to strive, and to do what they have to do right now. They just let it be – let things happen on its own without their control. You have to balance going through the journey and being eager to reach your goal. “Happiness is progress towards a worthy goal.” Aim for worthy goals. Break them down to small chunks so as you go along the journey, you savour every progress you make. Rob: “There should a balance in the pursuit of your own goals and the goals of humanity.” It’s okay to be selfish sometimes. Help others but also help yourself. Do sustainable projects where you can make money and also help other people. BEST MOMENTS “It’s NOT all about the journey; it’s PARTLY about the journey.” “You have to set a goal… It has to be as much about the goal as it is the journey.” “My Intense happiness is from the difficult challenges I endured and mastered and struggled and thrived.” [Business, mindset, entrepreneur, disruptors] VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/ bit.ly/Robsupporter   https://robmoore.com/podbooks  rob.team ABOUT THE HOST Rob Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor, and property educator.

Focus on things that will make you feel alive. Your family and friends around you that you cling to are the greatest inspiration. Spend a lot of time with them. Who are your mentors? For Rob, it’s anyone who had a bad day yesterday but it still gets up to courageously face today. Treat your difficulties as a motivation. BEST MOMENTS "We mustn't let small problems become big problems. We mustn't let the first-world problems overwhelm us and make us believe that life is hard, things are hard."

From your sappy romcom to your gore first-person shooter video game, there is a noticeable glorification of risk-taking in the media. But that is NOT the case when you want to be a successful entrepreneur. In this episode of The Disruptors Podcast, Rob talks about being a smart entrepreneur by staying away from big risk-taking decisions. Statistically, there are a little number of successful entrepreneurs who really took the biggest risk that turned their lives around. Listen as Rob discusses why it should it be balanced, its pros and cons, and the tips on taking progressive incrementally-increased risk to become successful in a realistic amount of time! KEY TAKEAWAYS You don’t need to risk everything. Risk is a balance. If you have nothing to lose – finances are in a bad state – then it’s acceptable that you risk getting out of that state. But if you’ve got savings, investments, mortgages, etc., then be smart about taking a risk. Tips on progressive incrementally-increased risk to become successful in a realistic amount of time: You can make progressively-increased risk decisions. Marginally get out of your comfort zone. If you push yourself too far out of the comfort zone, then you could risk making bad decisions. When you invest, invest a small money that you can afford to lose. If it goes well, scale it up incrementally. If it doesn’t, learn and grow from there. Be careful at looking at others glorified stories. You look at your mentors, idolized them, and say to yourself, ‘I wanna do that, I’m going to that.’ Not yet! Look at the whole journey they took to get where they are – which may have taken them years and years. When you are financially unstable, you will make emotionally unstable decisions. You’ll want to save something for you. Don’t take big risk-taking decisions. Don’t be impatient. Like a diamond, a compressed carbon over a hundred thousand years, it takes time to be well-formed. Along the way, you get to build your skills, credibility, and experience. It’s okay not to want a massive empire. It doesn’t have to be a big corporation to be a huge success. It’s okay to want freedom, to shoo away from fame, to prioritize family, etc. Beware of very one-sided soundbites like ‘Go big or go home’, ‘Go all out’, etc. BEST MOMENTS "You have to be careful because sometimes the story, the excitement of risking everything - this glory that we perhaps see can make us make a bad investment or strategic decisions." "Sometimes, you're modelling people that are way ahead of you and you're missing the 10, 15-year journey they took. It's bad to look at people way ahead of you." "It's okay to say no to some things. It's okay to reduce the risk, to not put yourself under a lot of pressure, and to do the things that are right for you." "Get comfortably uncomfortable, not uncomfortably comfortable.” [Business, mindset, entrepreneur, disruptors] VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/ bit.ly/Robsupporter   https://robmoore.com/podbooks  rob.team ABOUT THE HOST Rob Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor, and property educator.

Welcome to The Disruptors Podcast! In this episode, Rob answers questions from M- a Disruptive Entrepreneur Community member, about how to stop pedestalising your competition and in turn, making yourself feel insignificant or of no value compared to those people. It is a common issue entrepreneurs face, especially when they look to grow. How do you avoid putting yourself down by saying “They’re better than me” without taking it the other way and looking at your competition in a negative light? Rob explains all and how he dealt with this issue in his own experience as he became the Disruptive Entrepreneur he is today. KEY TAKEAWAYS Practice an abundant mindset. There is room in the marketplace for all of us. Without competition, there would be no marketplace! There would be no fair prices, no fair exchange. Your competitors actually make you work to keep improving your products and services, which in turn increases you or your business’s value and ability to solve problems. Be grateful for your competition. You learn more from your competition than you do from your supporters, as they challenge you to craft something as good as (or even better than) their products and services. Your competition challenges you to improve on your weaknesses and evaluate why you do what you do. Embrace criticism- it will only help you grow. We seek validation from others, and the place we find that is with our followers and fans, but as nice as these comments are, they are deep within our comfort zone which we all know is the place we never grow. By embracing critics and criticism, you can open yourself to a world of possibilities if you just listen and take on board what you could do in order to improve. To be happy, you first have to be uncomfortable. Reaching outside of your comfort zone feels scary, exciting and nerve-wrecking all at once, but embracing the unfamiliarity and allowing yourself to progress through testing times will ultimately get you further toward your goal, thus giving you a sense of achievement and a boost of happiness that will then encourage you to progress even further. Rejection is just one step closer to a win.  Rejection feels tough, but the more it happens, the more resistant you become to it, and the closer you get to success.   BEST MOMENTS “No one is rejection proof. Everybody feels vulnerable. Let’s be honest, who likes rejection? No one. If someone says they like rejection, what they’ve done, is, they’ve learned to manage the meaning of rejection in their mind.” “ Every master was once a disaster. Every winner was once a beginner” “When you feel you’re superior, you will have to be humbled. When you feel you’re inferior, you will often get supported” [Business, mindset, entrepreneur, disruptors] VALUABLE RESOURCES The Science of Happiness (Book) https://www.amazon.co.uk/Science-Happiness-brains-happy-happier/dp/1922247219/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1535278357&sr=8-1&keywords=The+Science+of+Happiness Reject me, I love it!

Welcome to another episode of The Disruptors Podcast! Today, Rob covers ten ways to get yourself out there, whether it means marketing yourself, giving your product a voice or creating a content. Whatever it is that you’re thinking about doing, stop overthinking, ask yourself “what’s the worst that could happen?”, start with what you know best, and then do it!   Key Takeaways:   Stop overthinking it and start testing it. Don’t waste precious time worrying and overthinking about whether you’ll mess up, be judged or that you won’t be good enough and instead, just got for it. If it makes you feel more comfortable, take some notes, be prepared, talk about something you know well, just do it.   Remember that everything is a test. Nothing ever has to be the perfect finished final product. If something turns out bad, you can always go back and fix it. Stop making it seem so big and permanent in your mind, understand how small your actions are in the grand scheme of things and take that pressure off yourself.   Ask yourself, “what’s the worst that could happen?” What is the absolute worst-case scenario for putting your content out into the world? It’s not death, it’s not disownment, it’s the possibility that it might not get seen or that people might not like it. And if that happens, you learn from it and move on.   Ask yourself, “What will happen if I don’t?” Think about what you’ll miss out on if you don’t take this step. Think of all the things that might not happen for you now if you don’t put yourself out there. Think about where you will be 10 years down the line if you stay too scared to move forward.   Remember that you can always press the delete button. If you really don’t like something you’ve put out or afterward feel like you can do better than just delete it. You always have the option to change your mind and delete it. But first, you have to put it out there and give it a chance. You might even end up surprised at the results and be glad you chose not to delete it.   Get some accountability. Make sure that there is a failsafe in place that forces you to take accountability and follow-through with your plans, whether it’s a coach or a mentor or even just making public posts on social media that force you into accountability because people have seen them now.   Start with something you know. If you’re not sure where to begin when it comes to marketing your business, start by marketing yourself. Pick something you know a lot about or a very good at and talk about it. Use it as a practice run for being able to start talking about your business.   Start with your favorite platform. Whatever your medium preference is: blogs, audio, video, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, start with that. There’s no rule that says you have to put your message on a certain specific outlet. Ideally, you should use all of them, but you can at least start with the one you’re most comfortable with and build from there.   Understand that you have something unique to share because you are unique. Don’t limit yourself or keep your voice and ideas from being heard because you think there are other people saying better things than you. They can’t say them the way you can because there’s no one else in the whole world like you. There’s space in your niche for you.   Focus on your niche first. Give yourself a narrow parameter in which to work. If you set unreasonable goals or try to reach too wide an audience too soon, you’ll likely overwhelm yourself and procrastinate on actually putting yourself out there.   Best Moments: “We overthink putting ourselves out there, that we’re gonna be judged, that we’re gonna get it wrong, that we’re gonna make mistakes, that we’re not gonna be good enough, or have imposter syndrome, blah blah blah. Stop overthinking it, start putting yourself out there.”   “Nothing is final, everything is just the ongoing step in a very long journey.”   “Let the world be the judge, not you. But you can always hit the delete button.”   “There’s something that everybody knows better than everybody else.”  [Business, mindset, entrepreneur, disruptors] VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/ bit.ly/Robsupporter   https://robmoore.com/podbooks  rob.team ABOUT THE HOST Rob Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor, and property educator.
