Hustle & Flowchart: Mastering Business & Enjoying the Journey
The Hustle & Flowchart Podcast with Joe Fier is all about how to build a business so it gives you the freedom and fuel for your life.
We discuss systems, mindset tweaks, reframes, and strategies for entrepreneurs (and really anyone) to enjoy the process of being in business and having fun.
This isn't for the entrepreneur looking to build a billion dollar business, rather someone who is looking to build systems that work for you, so you can make more money than you need just by working part-time.
I was a chronic hustle-mode kinda guy and I want to share my experiences and mentors I've met along the way to help you reframe things so you can be the most effective as an entrepreneur.
Join in conversations with Joe Fier and various mentors sharing principles and strategies to put this into action for yourself.
Please enjoy and share with your friends!

BJ Fogg - How To Build Tiny Habits That Stick
BJ Fogg, PhD, author of Tiny Habits and TinyHabits.com is on the show today! We have been immersed lately in understanding changes and our own habits, which have led to some self-sabotage at times. BJ talks about the concept of breaking the chain and how it can be detrimental to your progress. If your habit is too big, it can be hard to build up the momentum to continue. Plus, celebrating micro wins can be a huge motivator and they can come with every action that you do. BJ talked about his mission in spreading that ripple effect that will pass on to others, similar to how we love having fun while recording. He also gave us some real-life examples of creating tiny habits that stuck, such as how he was able to shed weight easily and how he starts his day in the right way to set his mind up for success. Still want more? Go check out our previous conversations with Anthony Trucks and Erin Pheil for more tricks to get you unstuck with some simple questions and quick tactics. “The best system whether it’s weight loss, sleeping better, or being more productive, is matching yourself with behaviors that will take you to that outcome, and these behaviors should be ones that you already want to do.” - BJ Fogg, PhD Some Topics We Discussed Include: How one way of raising kids helps them to foster a sense of accomplishment and be goal orientated How emotions create the habits Breaking down the Fogg Behavior Model The Maui Habit and celebrating life BJ’s easy method for weight loss Stopping the derailment of habits when your environment changes The simple act of celebrating even the smallest of actions Breaking the habit myths (hint: repetition does not create a habit) Resources From BJ Fogg: TinyHabits.com - Grab the book and take the free 5-day program BJFogg.com References and Links Mentioned: Humor, Seriously by Jennifer Aaker and Naomi Bagdonas The Gap and The Gain by Dan Sullivan and Benjamin Hardy Are you ready to be EPIC with us?!

How To Capitalize On "The Creator Economy"
This episode is going to be a great extension of what we have been chatting about in the last few weeks. Also, since we’ve been talking a lot about branding, we are back to branding these episodes as a Therapy Session once again. There’s been some great opportunities that we have been discussing for a while, specifically in the creator economy. We now see our company as a media company rather than just a podcast. We also know there are those listeners who are not necessarily trying to create a media brand, so we wanted to speak to that audience. If you know that the creator economy is getting bigger, there’s never been a better time to figure out how to sell the shovels to that industry without having to be an influencer. We talk about the opportunities that we see in the creator economy and some cool stats that compare it to the gig economy. We also drop some insight into how you, as an entrepreneur can use this opportunity. Once you become aware of where the money and attention is flowing, you can position yourself and ride that wave with the creators. It’s a smart approach and we’ll talk about some ways where it’s not you building the media company, but you can be the specialist to provide your services to those on the rise, even positioning yourself for rev deals and partnership. Once you listened, be sure to check out our chats with Gary Henderson and Travis Chappell for tips on how to make connections and network with influencers on a level playing field. “Position yourself properly and strategically - anyone can do that now with the creator/influencer economy.” - Joe Fier “The fact that each one of these things has so many subtasks, is a huge opportunity for digital marketers who want to go and specialize in one of those. Just look at YouTube, and look at one of the tasks you’ve got to do for YouTube. There’s a business there that you can go and replicate for people over and over again.” - Matt Wolfe Some Topics We Discussed Include: Examples of opportunities that never existed before, which you can specialize in and build a business around Some interesting stats on where the creator economy is headed A look behind the scenes of how we are building our media company Generalists vs. specialists in the agency world, and how the pandemic has switched things up Ideas on how to leverage the creator economy Steal one of our business ideas and run with it!

Brian Bogert - The Steps To Building A Limitless Life
On today’s show, we are chatting with Brian Bogert, of BrianBogert.com, who has a wealth of perspectives, and we’ll definitely do a round two, as he opened up so many loops for us. He’s got so many crazy experiences that have happened and shaped who he is. We talk about podcasting and some things that we didn’t even know which we know you will find helpful. Brian also chatted about his perspective in regards to mindset vs. tactics, and our survey that we put out last year, which we now know is not that cut and dry, and actually has a few layers to those results. He’s got such great insights into triggers, and how to embrace the pain to avoid suffering, and gave us some real-life examples. The beauty of this conversation is showing how we can be blind to some things until they show up. We did talk a little about imposter syndrome and how we get it sometimes around tangents on the show if we don’t think we can add to the conversation. Brian was able to enlighten us since we now know to just say what we are thinking and awaken the sleeping giant in ourselves, which is very refreshing. There were so many a-ha moments in this conversation, that we will definitely be having Brian back for round two. In the meantime, you may enjoy our chats with Gabby Bernstein and JaMarr Johnson where we chat about how to get into a flow and get yourself on the best track. “Typically what’s preventing us from being exactly who we want to be, reaching our potential, and having the impact on the world we desire... guess what - it’s us.” - Brian Bogert Some Topics We Discussed Include: How the recent events over the last year have created a boom for podcasting The magic of valuable sound bites that convert to attention and downloads Redefining the patterns in your life that have been holding you back When we surveyed our audience on Tactics vs. Mindset and how they are not mutually exclusive Recognizing who we are as humans and defining mental toughness The importance of knowing someone’s prime narrative to communicate with them in the best way possible The stuff that no one is talking about in regards to changing the patterns in our own life Check out Matt’s eloquent thought process on reacting to the metaphysical nature of the conversation A new framework on how to view imposter syndrome Recognizing pain and suffering to go forth to fulfilling our destiny Resources From Brian Bogert: BrianBogert.com WhoBeforeWhat.com 602-704-5189 - text Brian and tell him how much you loved this show!

YouTube, Spotify, Fireside, and OnlyFans?
This is a show for those of you thinking about podcasting and YouTube and for those who are not, you still should listen in. We are going to be talking about content creation on the platforms everyone is going to these days. We chat about recent stats, predictions and where things are headed. There’s a lot of cool things that we have been noticing, that we think will help everyone. We’ve been pretty tapped in with what’s been happening in the podcasting space in the past few years, and our gut reactions have been pretty accurate.

Plus we deep dive into a poll by Edison Research that shows some interesting data in regards to where podcast listeners are hanging out for both searching and listening. So check it out, and when you are done be sure to have a listen to our chats with Rob Balasabas and Marc Guberti who drop some golden nuggets on how to maximize your YouTube views, as well as best practices for your descriptions, keywords and tags. “There’s so much opportunity to leverage other people’s work and show up as a recommended video.” - Joe Fier “Anywhere you can have your content, have your content available there, because these trends might shift over time, so might as well be where everyone’s looking.” - Matt Wolfe Some Topics We Discussed Include: Why we’ve been putting our focus on YouTube based on data Interesting stats about where people are listening now and more trends that we’ve been eyeing for a while What really bugs Matt about Spotify?

Armand Morin - The Past, Present, and Future of Internet Marketing
Did you know that our guest today is the reason behind Russell Brunson’s success? Today, we have Armand Morin on the show, and it was so cool to go down a page in history, as he talked about the early days of internet marketing way back in 1996. He tells the story of how he made over one million dollars selling bookmarks in the days before payment processors. Also, his email strategy and MAE framework were interesting to us, as well as how he doesn’t believe in funnels. He has flipped the idea of the funnel into more of a pipeline and gave us a dissertation on how to do email with this approach. We also chat about his email sequence based on webinars, which was another massive topic. This show was much more tactical than we thought, as Armand covered email strategies, webinar strategies, and even how to become a country music star. He’s also a national champion with Tai Kwon Do, and follows that whole “Success Leaves Traces” philosophy, which you can learn about in his book of the same name. After you’ve listened, you might enjoy our episodes with Dale Beaumont and David Jenyns for more tips on creating systems to save time and work smarter. Lastly, if you are heading to Traffic & Conversions Summit, be sure to stop by our booth in the expo area and come say hello! There will be challenges, fun, and prizes! If you want to come network and hang out with us, we are going to be throwing a huge party at Mission Brewery in San Diego on Tuesday evening. There will be sponsors (if you want to sponsor, hit us up!) and we promise this will be a super fun party that you do not want to miss. “At 3 hours into my whole internet career, I find this website that says ‘If you give me $20, I will put a link on my site that will link to your site and because I’m advertising so much, you’re going to get a lot of traffic to your site’ and I thought, Oh man, that’s brilliant!” - Armand Morin Some Topics We Discussed Include: How to hack your way into becoming a huge country music star Avoiding a painful, first business lesson The early days of selling links and having to print out paper checks! How Armand created the world’s original search engine What happens when you get your merchant account shut down when you are on track to make over $150,000,000 in a year Why you want to think of selling through a pipeline, not a marketing funnel The early days of the Warrior Forum - who knew?!

Marketing Is Changing - Adapt or Go Broke
This episode has been a long time coming, as we have been thinking about some of this stuff since 2013. Many of our listeners have told us how much they miss our Therapy Sessions where we talk about what we are doing in the business and our struggles and wins, and this show will include a lot of those insights. We chat about where we see a lot of our marketing efforts headed, how the marketing landscape is changing for all of us, and some of the things we will be doing differently. We also discuss some of the ways that we are finally fulfilling our goals from years back and how we are going all in. Also, if you are heading to the Traffic & Conversions Summit, be sure to stop by our booth in the expo area and come say hello! Make sure you are subscribed to our YouTube channel, as there will be challenges, fun, and prizes (cha-ching!)

There will be sponsors (if you want to sponsor, hit us up!) and we promise this will be a super fun party that you do not want to miss. And after you have enjoyed this episode, be sure to check out our conversations with Angelo Sisco and Ryan Berman who share their own great insights about branding in this new marketing landscape. “The big four - the GAFA companies - are all battling it out right now over things like privacy, the various ad platforms and methods of advertising, and all the smaller companies who are trying to play by the rules are getting squashed in the mix.” - Matt Wolfe “We are going to be doing a hybrid approach between what we have been doing in direct response and internet marketing compared to more of the branding and creator play.” - Joe Fier Some Topics We Discussed Include: The big push for privacy among GAFA What do with lower open rates and losing your cookies Want to be in the movies? How we’re all in Godzilla vs. King Kong now Let’s go back to college and talk about the S.W.O.T. analysis That one guy who is not welcome on our show Building a media brand to mirror the Tim Ferriss effect The future of course building and where to market them Our plans for Traffic & Conversions and how you can potentially be a guest on the show!

Anthony Trucks - How To Get Your Shift Together
We have Anthony Trucks joining us again for round two, and we had an absolute ball. Anthony has a new book coming out, Identity Shift, which we discuss in-depth on today’s episode. This was an impactful and timely episode, and one of the things we talked about was how there are people who want variety in life, and then there are people who want stability. For example, even in our own business, our new studio is the mechanism for wanting to change things up, as things were getting a little monotonous. Another analogy that Anthony discussed was the ball analogy, where the ball that you kicked far away is your goal and when it’s too far, the doubt comes in. So when it comes to goal setting, if you build too grand of a vision, you can get into mental trouble because that ball needs to be a little closer. He talks about people who constantly consume and don’t take any action, so the more you consume, the heavier that ball becomes. Also, he talks about how one of the goals of his book is to clarify how to close the identity gap so you can upgrade your life to the next level. There’s a lot of good stuff in this one, and after you have listened, we have some great shows from our vault you should check out, including our previous show with Anthony and our chat with Nir Eyal that deals with mindset, becoming more products, and getting valuable feedback to make better business decisions. “At the end of the day, your identity has to match your dream or it will never be realized. A lot of people have dreams that are far beyond their current identity...the cool thing is as you shift into it, you simultaneously transform as a human, but you also achieve that thing.” - Anthony Trucks Some Topics We Discussed Include: How our chairs are a metaphor for our business What makes you a skilled speaker What your ideal identity is comprised of and the identity gap Are you suffering from the epidemic of shelf esteem? The dinnertime conversation you can have with your kids to cement a positive relationship with them The difference between parenting your kids and coaching them (plus how to get your kids to clean their room!)

Here's Why Branding Is Vital
We’re back, coming at you from the world-famous Hustle & Flowchart Studios! Today we are talking about branding, our thoughts and our experience with it and what we are learning about branding lately including the psychology behind it. It’s been a big focus lately in that we are trying to get ourselves dialed in on our brand, uplevel the video quality, and revamping our website design. There’s some specific reasons why we feel now is the time to be branding and we dive into this on today’s episode. We will be covering some low hanging fruit ways to brand that you probably haven’t thought about. There’s also a few cool videos that we will reference and one of more interesting ways that one major influencer is building his brand plus the surprising reasons behind it. We have also updated some of our studio equipment and will dive into what some of our favorite brands are and why. In addition to all of this, we chat about the bigger picture behind your brand, making an impact on society, and leaving a legacy. After you’ve listened, be sure to check out the past shows we’ve done with Ryan Lee and Ryan Berman to give you some additional ideas on branding and building your tribe. “It’s important to make sure you have the brand understood before you do any dramatic things to the perception of your brand. Ask yourself how are people identifying and attaching to you right now and what’s the reason they are choosing you over another podcast?” - Joe Fier “The way we see it is, the bigger the brand that we can build, the more attention that we can create on us, and then we can essentially sell that attention.” - Matt Wolfe Some Topics We Discussed Include: What the leading YouTube influencers are doing outside the normal realm of promotion Our top three favorite brands that have helped outfit our new studio Some new platforms we might be testing out with our branding Thanks again Ryan for the burrito hookup! Building up your brand to sell attention One good reason to not shoot at the highest quality for your videos Getting people to feel like your brand is a part of their family Is Apple still the creator’s choice?

Joe Sanok - The #1 Secret for Creating the Lifestyle you Always Wanted
Joe Sanok joins us again for a second show, with another fun conversation about chilling out, getting your mind in order, and having systems that have been a theme lately around the Hustle & Flowchart brand. A lot of conversations we have had recently are in tune with what we want to do with our brand, which translates into a smart and productive way to work. It is less about tactics and business strategies as what’s really important is figuring out what we want to do and having the business facilitate that. On today’s show, we chat about how Joe was able to take more time off as we have done, spend more time on the important things in his business, outsource the things that are not as important, and basically slow time to get more clarity. He also tells us a great analogy with his tale of his encounter with a rhino, what to expect if you are doing a book deal with a major publisher and how hie Slow Down School has helped many entrepreneurs to do just that, while also moving their own business ideas ahead quickly. If the idea of traveling the country while working your business part-time appeals to you, be sure to check out our previous show with Joe as well as the chat we held with Justin Brooke. “Research shows that when you slow down you have better clarity on what you need to spend your time on. So if you are taking a Wednesday off and the weekend off and you are generally setting boundaries and letting your brain be optimized, then when you get to the week, you can kill it.” - Joe Sanok Some Topics We Discussed Include: The magical mindfulness of young minds Roadtripping across America, while road schooling kids and podcasting about the adventure The benefits of having two Fridays a week Scheduling in fun first Discovering your sprint personality to fine-tune your workflow Staying at an Airbnb for the weekend to get more work done How we slow down in a way that matches what our brain needs What to do when you see a rhino charging right at you The science behind vigilant detriment One simple thing you can do to refresh your brain, pay attention better, and work more efficiently The trick to getting to 100 pushups a day What to expect when you publish a book with a big name publishing house Resources From Joe Sanok: The Practice of the Practice on Instagram Joe Sanok on LinkedIn Podcast Launch School Thursday is the New Friday - by Joe Sanok Practice of the Practice Leave to Find podcast JoeSanok.com References and Links Mentioned: The Big Leap by Gay Hendricks Sam Harris’ Wake Up Meditation Are you ready to be EPIC with us?!
