Transcript
It's a big, big problem right now, like funnel
Jeffery Banek:ecosystems that I used to be able to charge 20, 30, 40 grand for.
Vit Muller:So nothing for free upfront.
Vit Muller:Not even an ebook, not even
Jeffery Banek:I sort of think the days of a basic PDF lead magnet are gone.
Vit Muller:Hey, we could do this, we could do this.
Vit Muller:And now with this AI thing, this, I'm gonna do this.
Vit Muller:I haven't done it yet, but it makes total sense.
Jeffery Banek:I'm really big on wire framing out the ecosystem,
Jeffery Banek:just because there's some people that need the visual aspect of it.
Jeffery Banek:And you have so many people, especially when you're working
Jeffery Banek:with a team and getting stuff done,
Vit Muller:we have this thing saying in Czech Republic, that's where I'm from.
Vit Muller:measure twice cut once.
Vit Muller:if you're gonna cut the tree, you only got that one.
Vit Muller:So once you've cut the tree, that's it.
Jeffery Banek:it was like when Neo saw the Matrix for the first time,
Jeffery Banek:I was like, up sales, webinars, funnels, websites are dead.
Jeffery Banek:I'm like, this is the future.
Vit Muller:I'm big nerd, like I've been since then, like looking at what else
Vit Muller:can I plug in, how else can I optimize And using all these other softwares and
Vit Muller:plugging it in and zapping things in.
Vit Muller:And you know it, the duck tape method.
Vit Muller:Then high level comes along and I'm like, wow.
Jeffery Banek:Eat it like an elephant.
Jeffery Banek:One chunk at a time.
Jeffery Banek:Do not learn all the chunks at once because you'll become a jack
Jeffery Banek:of all trades, master or none,
Vit Muller:Alright.
Vit Muller:HighLevelers.
Vit Muller:Let welcome back to another exciting episode on the High
Vit Muller:Level Experience podcast.
Vit Muller:Today we've got a real treat for you.
Vit Muller:Our guest is none other than Jeffrey Banek, better known as "The Funnel Doc."
Vit Muller:He is a powerhouse in the world of sales ecosystems and automations, redefining
Vit Muller:the landscape of digital marketing.
Vit Muller:Over the past nine years, he's not only become a household name, but he has also
Vit Muller:racked up multiple prestigious awards and generated over $6.1 million in sales.
Vit Muller:But here is something interesting.
Vit Muller:Jeffrey isn't just a marketer, he's a mentor who shared the stage of legends
Vit Muller:like Daymond John and Perry Belcher.
Vit Muller:His coaching students have achieved over $7.2 million in
Vit Muller:sales in under three years.
Vit Muller:That's some serious impact!
Vit Muller:And if that wasn't intriguing enough, Jeffrey's approach to
Vit Muller:marketing and AI integration is both impactful and subtle marking a
Vit Muller:new era in the marketing industry.
Vit Muller:So let's dive in to this new era together.
Vit Muller:Please welcome to the show, Jeffery Banek aka the Funnel Doc!
Jeffery Banek:What's up man?
Jeffery Banek:Thanks for having me on.
Jeffery Banek:It's a pleasure.
Jeffery Banek:Appreciate it.
Vit Muller:Hey Jeff.
Vit Muller:Really cool to have you mate.
Vit Muller:I was just, back in OK October while I was in Dallas.
Vit Muller:That's the first time I meet you.
Vit Muller:I think it was like a lunch table.
Vit Muller:You were sitting there.
Vit Muller:But I've seen you around, I've seen you around in the interwebs for like
Vit Muller:last pa for like last 12 of months.
Vit Muller:I've got a, became met with Mitchell Alomar, he is been showing, he's
Vit Muller:been to some workshops and I've seen like this guy in a white coat,
Vit Muller:white coat, this doctor branding.
Vit Muller:I'm like, this is actually pretty bloody smart.
Vit Muller:How did you come up with that idea?
Jeffery Banek:So, yeah, it, it was like really the first time I ever put it on was
Jeffery Banek:going to the second funnel hacking live.
Jeffery Banek:And, it was super scary, man, because you go, I'm six five, so you go put
Jeffery Banek:on a white lab coat and go rolling into funnel hacking live and you
Jeffery Banek:don't know people are gonna make fun of you or how it's gonna work out.
Jeffery Banek:But as you said, it's been one of the greatest branding
Jeffery Banek:I've done in the whole thing.
Jeffery Banek:But how it started is I was actually a medic with the Marines
Jeffery Banek:and I was on the, nuclear chemical biological fast response team.
Jeffery Banek:So I had advanced medical training.
Jeffery Banek:I even taught doctors advanced cardiac life support.
Jeffery Banek:I could even shock babies and push drugs on babies.
Jeffery Banek:that's how advanced my training was.
Jeffery Banek:and anyway that we, when I was in the funnels back in
Jeffery Banek:the day, that's all we did.
Jeffery Banek:And the whole premise was if your funnel got sick, you could bring it to
Jeffery Banek:the funnel doc, he'll make it better.
Jeffery Banek:And that type of thing.
Jeffery Banek:So it sort of went from there.
Jeffery Banek:And now people know the Funnel doc, they don't know me.
Jeffery Banek:They're like, I don't know who you are really, but I know the funnel doc.
Jeffery Banek:so, or they, my tattoo, that was the other thing.
Jeffery Banek:I get a lot of people with this guy, they're like, I've seen
Jeffery Banek:your tattoo for ClickFunnels, but I don't know who you are.
Jeffery Banek:So I get a lot of responses with that too.
Vit Muller:I love it.
Vit Muller:I love it.
Vit Muller:So let's dissect it.
Vit Muller:Let's go in the true spirit of the of, of the funnel doc.
Vit Muller:somebody comes up, says, Hey Jeff, my funnel's not working.
Vit Muller:At least I think it's not working.
Vit Muller:What's the first thing you diagnose?
Jeffery Banek:Yeah, usually it's, it's pretty much, believe
Jeffery Banek:it or not, almost always the same.
Jeffery Banek:first things first, they have a really bad headline or hook, like whatever it is.
Jeffery Banek:You gotta realize that's what's grabbing their attention.
Jeffery Banek:That's what's gonna get them to read more.
Jeffery Banek:That's what's gonna get them interested.
Jeffery Banek:So if.
Jeffery Banek:You can't grab their attention with a proper hooker headline and
Jeffery Banek:then all the information above the fold or the bottom of the page.
Jeffery Banek:If that can't tell 'em what it is, why they should get it and how they should
Jeffery Banek:buy it, then it really, you can lose people and you have a super bad drop off.
Jeffery Banek:So that's the number one thing.
Jeffery Banek:And then the second most common thing, these always go hand in hand.
Jeffery Banek:And I felt prey to the second one myself sometimes.
Jeffery Banek:'cause you get so excited about your own products, that you just
Jeffery Banek:list all the features of it.
Jeffery Banek:You're like, it's got this and it's got this, it's got 13 chapters, it's got
Jeffery Banek:this many books, and you got coaching calls and you got blah, blah, blah, blah.
Jeffery Banek:And it sounds great on paper.
Jeffery Banek:But then when you, the actual client or potential, your dream
Jeffery Banek:customer avatar lands on the page.
Jeffery Banek:To them it's just a bunch of noise.
Jeffery Banek:Because first of all, a lot of it.
Jeffery Banek:They can't relate it to their pain points.
Jeffery Banek:And that's what needs to be on the page.
Jeffery Banek:It needs to be what are the benefits they're gonna get it,
Jeffery Banek:how is it gonna solve their pain?
Jeffery Banek:And then you use the features to reinforce the benefits and how it's
Jeffery Banek:gonna help them versus being the primary driver of your marketing message.
Jeffery Banek:So those two things are the, the first and second thing always a problem.
Jeffery Banek:I mean, again, I've, I've fallen prey to myself too.
Jeffery Banek:I had a, a funnel, I launched the other day in, in 24 hours.
Jeffery Banek:We had six, 700 people went into it and it just converted terrible.
Jeffery Banek:And I'm like, what's going on?
Jeffery Banek:This offer is amazing.
Jeffery Banek:Why aren't people buying?
Jeffery Banek:And I went and looked at it and I'm like, because I just listed everything in it.
Jeffery Banek:I didn't tell 'em how it was gonna help 'em or why they needed it or any of that.
Jeffery Banek:I was just like, here's a bunch of cool stuff.
Jeffery Banek:Hopefully you wanna buy it, And so there you go.
Jeffery Banek:So there's the two
Vit Muller:Yeah.
Vit Muller:I love it.
Vit Muller:Yeah, I mean, I, I've used this analogy.
Vit Muller:I don't know where I got it from, but it's to, to this day,
Vit Muller:it's my most favorite analogy.
Vit Muller:it's like when you go to a theater, right?
Vit Muller:You go for a show, you sit in the audience, the reflectors
Vit Muller:are pointed at a stage.
Vit Muller:So how it's meant to be, right?
Vit Muller:Looking at the actors and the show.
Vit Muller:And for some reason, like a lot of business owners, they seem to
Vit Muller:be wanting to do it the same way.
Vit Muller:Hey, look at our shit.
Vit Muller:Look at us.
Vit Muller:Here's what we do here.
Vit Muller:our services by our stuff, right?
Vit Muller:Like you said.
Vit Muller:I don't know where I heard it from, but it's all you need to do is just
Vit Muller:turn the reflectors at the audience.
Vit Muller:Highlight them.
Vit Muller:Highlight them so they can like, get it.
Vit Muller:Yeah, I mean, it's, it's mind boggling also.
Vit Muller:Like sometimes you go, like to someone's site or like Facebook
Vit Muller:page or they're promoting something and, and then you click and it's a
Vit Muller:4 0 4 or not even connected domain.
Jeffery Banek:Yeah,
Vit Muller:if,
Jeffery Banek:we, it's been, I've been doing this for 10 years now, so
Jeffery Banek:I've had that happen a couple times.
Jeffery Banek:Not with 4 0 4 as much, but maybe I'll leave, I'll mistype on a custom value.
Jeffery Banek:So it's just like contact first name and email or something like
Vit Muller:oh yeah.
Jeffery Banek:know, we've all had those mistakes and stuff, so it's just part
Jeffery Banek:of a entrepreneurship, it's I tell my coaching students realize every time
Jeffery Banek:you make a mistake, it's one closer, it's one failure closer to success.
Jeffery Banek:You know what I mean?
Jeffery Banek:If you had so many times, I could tell you, if you, you gotta fail 11
Jeffery Banek:times, and on that 12th one, you're gonna knock it outta the park.
Jeffery Banek:You would do everything possible to fail as fast as possible.
Jeffery Banek:But because we're human and we don't like failure and we're
Jeffery Banek:afraid of it, we hesitate.
Jeffery Banek:And that can cause a lot of setbacks.
Jeffery Banek:So, yeah, you, I, I just tell everybody, I'm like, Hey, that's
Jeffery Banek:a part of entrepreneurship.
Jeffery Banek:If you're not making those mistakes, you're probably not
Jeffery Banek:pushing hard enough to some degree.
Jeffery Banek:You know what I mean?
Jeffery Banek:you, like it's the truth of it.
Vit Muller:Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Vit Muller:I wanna stay on topic of funnels for a little bit more
Vit Muller:because there is so much more.
Vit Muller:I dunno.
Vit Muller:It was like three years ago, I was like really diving into like I knew funnels,
Vit Muller:like the basic structure, one step, two step things, like basic stuff.
Vit Muller:But I'm a nerd as hell.
Vit Muller:I'm like, I'm gonna go all in and then like gear.
Jeffery Banek:to let you know too, like we don't, we do, I'll, I'll talk
Jeffery Banek:to you about funnels all day, but that's not really what my primary thing.
Jeffery Banek:It's all AI now.
Jeffery Banek:I mean, we still do funnel ecosystems, but really it's AI ecosystems is
Jeffery Banek:what we build out now, and that's our primary, my primary focus.
Jeffery Banek:They, I, I've even considered changing the Funnel doc name.
Jeffery Banek:It's been so much, but I can't because it's just been branded so well.
Vit Muller:That's good name.
Vit Muller:So what are you saying?
Vit Muller:Like the funnels are becoming less relevant with this ai?
Vit Muller:Or can this
Jeffery Banek:Yeah.
Jeffery Banek:Funnels have been massively commoditized.
Jeffery Banek:Dude.
Jeffery Banek:It's a big, big problem right now, like funnel ecosystems that I used to be
Jeffery Banek:able to charge 20, 30, 40 grand for.
Jeffery Banek:You have people now doing maybe not as good by any means, but sometimes okay.
Jeffery Banek:Or close enough for a lot of people is good enough.
Jeffery Banek:And unfortunately now, because funnels have been so again commoditized, you've
Jeffery Banek:got people in other countries that can make really good funnels, but to them a
Jeffery Banek:couple thousand dollars is life changing.
Jeffery Banek:So you've gotta compete with a lot of that.
Jeffery Banek:And I still do funnels, but I just, I feel like the funnel phenomenon has passed.
Jeffery Banek:You know what I mean?
Jeffery Banek:there was that one time like between 2017 to 2019 and 20
Jeffery Banek:where funnels were everywhere.
Jeffery Banek:Everybody wanted a funnel, Hey, you gotta have a funnel.
Jeffery Banek:And now funnels have been so much a commoditized product that
Jeffery Banek:you sure you can charge a lot.
Jeffery Banek:And we still do, but that's when we're building out full million
Jeffery Banek:dollar ecosystems for people.
Jeffery Banek:And there's just not as many of those go round.
Jeffery Banek:And here's the deal too.
Jeffery Banek:It might not be that good now, but give it a year and AI will
Jeffery Banek:make funnels better than me.
Jeffery Banek:It's just the truth of it.
Jeffery Banek:It doesn't matter what it is, if it's data driven and task driven, which funnels
Jeffery Banek:are, they're driven off of information and understanding your avatar and all that.
Jeffery Banek:P funnels, AI won't make the mistake like I did, of, of putting down
Jeffery Banek:too many benefits and no features or, all features and no benefits.
Jeffery Banek:You know what I mean?
Jeffery Banek:So, when Chad GPT hit last November, I was about to launch an agency course.
Jeffery Banek:On, on how to do everything I've done and be, successful
Jeffery Banek:like me, all that cool stuff.
Jeffery Banek:and I shut it down.
Jeffery Banek:I was like, this is gonna change everything.
Jeffery Banek:This course will be obsolete in, 90 days.
Jeffery Banek:So now, that's all we do is massively AI ecosystems.
Jeffery Banek:Really, we time into funnels.
Jeffery Banek:Like I've got a whole funnel web smart webinar funnel series where we've
Jeffery Banek:got a chat bot on each page that is page specific, that literally, its
Jeffery Banek:job is whatever that page's job is.
Jeffery Banek:So the registration page has a registration bot and its job
Jeffery Banek:is to help you get signed up.
Jeffery Banek:You got a, a webinar assistant that knows every, it's during recording.
Jeffery Banek:It works best.
Jeffery Banek:You can't do it live, but during a recording, it knows exactly
Jeffery Banek:where you are in the webinar.
Jeffery Banek:So as secret number one hits, it's Hey, Vit, did you see that?
Jeffery Banek:Did you unders, we talked about your business earlier.
Jeffery Banek:And you remember it.
Jeffery Banek:it literally knows you and it helps you walk you through the webinar
Jeffery Banek:process so that you buy at the end answering all your questions
Jeffery Banek:and being like a little assistant.
Jeffery Banek:So we do funnels in our ecosystems.
Jeffery Banek:But it's not the primary driver anymore.
Jeffery Banek:It's more of a second or third layer that we're like, okay, yeah, we'll
Jeffery Banek:do a webinar, but hey, we're gonna do a, a webinar that as soon as you
Jeffery Banek:register, AI's gonna call you and get you excited about showing up.
Jeffery Banek:And the day before we'll call.
Jeffery Banek:so AI is really taking over everything.
Vit Muller:But from a perspective of function, I think they still matter.
Vit Muller:may, maybe they're like commoditized, but as a functionality, like
Jeffery Banek:Oh yeah.
Jeffery Banek:They're super important.
Vit Muller:still work.
Vit Muller:Right.
Vit Muller:So that's that's
Jeffery Banek:Oh yeah.
Jeffery Banek:funnels are, that's what I'm saying.
Jeffery Banek:We still build people when we build out their full ecosystems, we'll
Jeffery Banek:build them funnels, but it's just not the primary thing where I'm
Jeffery Banek:like, Hey, you want to funnel?
Jeffery Banek:it's more an AI ecosystem.
Jeffery Banek:They'll pay us like 50 grand, we'll build out a full webinar ecosystem, full sales
Jeffery Banek:page, all that they need for everything.
Jeffery Banek:But it's not the primary focus, even though I'm the funnel doc still
Vit Muller:yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Vit Muller:No, that's cool.
Vit Muller:I'm glad we've clarified.
Vit Muller:That's oh
Jeffery Banek:Yeah, because I, I mean, I'll talk to about funnels all day, but I
Jeffery Banek:literally eat, sleep, and breathe ai now.
Jeffery Banek:That's all I
Vit Muller:Yeah, you're stuck.
Vit Muller:You're stuck.
Vit Muller:It.
Vit Muller:Yeah.
Vit Muller:Yeah.
Vit Muller:Yeah.
Vit Muller:So interesting one.
Vit Muller:I, I was just bombarded with all the arts.
Vit Muller:I mean, back in, back in November, what's his name?
Vit Muller:Dean Graziosi and, and the Tony Robbins Bloody hell.
Vit Muller:so they, they just did the ai, the big 3D ai thing, at the beginning of November.
Vit Muller:And I mean, I thought it's gonna be like basic stuff and then
Vit Muller:it's gonna go in more advanced.
Vit Muller:but I dissected their funnel and I gotta say their funnel is pretty epic actually.
Vit Muller:So they had, they didn't actually have the AI built, but it was about selling
Vit Muller:them to come to an event about ai.
Vit Muller:So, and it was a simple one, two.
Vit Muller:It was Trip Fire Funnel with an upsell for $1 upsell, and then
Vit Muller:they had, opt, opt-ins, add-ons.
Vit Muller:but yeah, like when you look at some of these big businesses, but they've
Vit Muller:got it like, it's like a rolls royce.
Vit Muller:everything's squeaky clean and like the design of it, I like that.
Vit Muller:I usually like just make a screenshots and I like, I put it
Vit Muller:somewhere aside and look at it.
Vit Muller:for the guys who, yeah, sorry.
Vit Muller:Go.
Jeffery Banek:And, and here's the thing too.
Jeffery Banek:I come from the Russell Brunson School of Ugly Funnels, so my funnels would always
Jeffery Banek:convert, but they didn't look as good.
Jeffery Banek:So I've always had, I've always had to hire a designer
Jeffery Banek:to, to make them look sexy.
Jeffery Banek:You know what I mean?
Jeffery Banek:Because back when funnels first hit in 2000 16, 17, 18, in there, you could
Jeffery Banek:still get away with ugly funnels.
Jeffery Banek:But now everybody's, it's like again, been so commoditized, and some people do it.
Jeffery Banek:You have to have a beautiful funnel.
Jeffery Banek:You can't have an ugly funnel anymore.
Jeffery Banek:At least, like you said, when people come to a funnel, they expect to be
Jeffery Banek:like, Hey, this is pretty nice funnel, even on the lowest level for someone
Jeffery Banek:that knows nothing about funnels.
Jeffery Banek:You know what I mean?
Vit Muller:Yeah.
Vit Muller:Yeah.
Vit Muller:so what type of funnels exist?
Vit Muller:Can we do, can we like, do a quicker, short list for the guys listening?
Jeffery Banek:The short list would be webinar funnel, sales funnel, lead
Jeffery Banek:magnet funnel probably, and then like maybe a, a high ticket coaching funnel
Jeffery Banek:would probably be the primary ones, and maybe you throw a fifth one in there.
Jeffery Banek:Self liquidating offer.
Jeffery Banek:So you got lead magnet to get 'em in for free.
Jeffery Banek:Self liquidating offer to get 'em in to help reduce your cost.
Jeffery Banek:You got the sales funnel, which is, could be for any product really.
Jeffery Banek:Webinar funnels usually for products that are two grand and above.
Jeffery Banek:And then you've got a high ticket coaching funnel, which is usually a short, like
Jeffery Banek:book, a call type funnel, but it's still for usually 5K and above type offers.
Jeffery Banek:Those are
Vit Muller:What about trip funnels?
Vit Muller:Where does that fall into
Jeffery Banek:Self liquidity and offer is a trip, is a tripwire funnel.
Jeffery Banek:Perry Belcher invented the word trip, the the term tripwire.
Jeffery Banek:but it's the same thing.
Jeffery Banek:It's a self liquidating offer.
Jeffery Banek:Basically, it's a cheap price that they get in or tripwire that they get into
Jeffery Banek:it and it leads them to a higher price usually, or the main thing is it reduce
Jeffery Banek:the cost for their primary product.
Jeffery Banek:So like for instance, if I have a course that's a thousand dollars, I
Jeffery Banek:might sell a self-liquidating offer or tripwire for 25 bucks or 200 bucks to
Jeffery Banek:get them in to get their credit card.
Jeffery Banek:Because that's a great thing is the, the hardest thing is to get them to make
Jeffery Banek:the first purchase once you get their credit card and they get something from
Jeffery Banek:you, even if it's small, they're like.
Jeffery Banek:Hey, this is pretty good.
Jeffery Banek:What else you got?
Jeffery Banek:and that allows the tripwire or self-liquidating offer means you're,
Jeffery Banek:it allows you to lower your ad costs.
Jeffery Banek:That's just like a fancy term.
Jeffery Banek:We'll use Tripwire a bit like that.
Jeffery Banek:So we'll say, the Tripwire offer allows you to not only get a payment up, up
Jeffery Banek:front, which is a low barrier offer.
Jeffery Banek:So you're not asking for a lot of money.
Jeffery Banek:You get the credit card, you get the know, and trust, and you help
Jeffery Banek:reduce your cost because let's say that 200 bucks, if it's costing you,
Jeffery Banek:let's just store a random number.
Jeffery Banek:Let's say it costs you a thousand dollars to acquire a customer.
Jeffery Banek:Now it just cost you 800 to acquire that customer because you took 200 off.
Jeffery Banek:That's easy Math.
Jeffery Banek:That's really more complex than that, but hopefully understand,
Jeffery Banek:I'm sure most people watch and do.
Jeffery Banek:but that self-liquidating offer of Tripwire is really gonna help you to
Jeffery Banek:be able to get people in the system.
Jeffery Banek:For a lot less.
Jeffery Banek:And again, build that nurturing because sometimes people know it and I'll
Jeffery Banek:be ready to buy that high ticket or whatever your higher offer is right now.
Jeffery Banek:I've seen that.
Jeffery Banek:It's up to something like, I've talked to people that said it's as high as
Jeffery Banek:like 50 touchpoints now because someone for someone buys because a touchpoint.
Jeffery Banek:Being a TikTok, I watched a short on it.
Jeffery Banek:I saw something on it.
Jeffery Banek:I, I chat GPT it.
Jeffery Banek:I Googled it.
Jeffery Banek:there's so many different ways to engage with something because
Jeffery Banek:we're in a research economy now.
Jeffery Banek:When someone sees something, they research it and look it up.
Jeffery Banek:People don't do a lot of impulse buying anymore.
Jeffery Banek:They do, but not as much as we'd like.
Jeffery Banek:But still yet, people are looking stuff up.
Jeffery Banek:So they have higher touch points now where you have to see it and, and
Jeffery Banek:be engaged with it more before you finally make that bigger purchase.
Jeffery Banek:So that's where Tripwire offers come in to help so much.
Jeffery Banek:I love them so much.
Jeffery Banek:and that's one of the things I teach, not to get off top, but I teach my students
Jeffery Banek:just because they have an AI audit, which they're like, Hey, I'm gonna give you this
Jeffery Banek:audit to teach you about your business.
Jeffery Banek:It's anywhere from a hundred to 500 bucks, depending on the
Jeffery Banek:student and their skill level.
Jeffery Banek:But it's literally them going, Hey, let me pay you to tell you all
Jeffery Banek:about what I need, AI my business.
Jeffery Banek:So you might be able to upsell me and actually providing those services
Jeffery Banek:because 80% of the time the client's can you just build this for me?
Jeffery Banek:It, it looks cool and this makes sense.
Jeffery Banek:But again, you want something inexpensive.
Jeffery Banek:That a hundred to $500 offer that now shows them AI and allows big businesses
Jeffery Banek:that don't wanna risk a lot of money.
Jeffery Banek:They don't wanna drop 50 K or 20 K. 'cause what if the AI doesn't work?
Jeffery Banek:An AI audit allows them to see every aspect in how AI can
Jeffery Banek:function in their business.
Jeffery Banek:And they risk a nominal amount, a small amount of trip
Jeffery Banek:wire, and again, they upsell.
Jeffery Banek:So I recommend using it in everything you do.
Jeffery Banek:It helps reduce your cost to acquire a customer.
Jeffery Banek:And if you do it right, people will pay you to become a customer.
Vit Muller:I mean, let's face it.
Vit Muller:What is it really doing?
Vit Muller:It's, it's shortening the trust building cycle, right?
Vit Muller:If you can give somebody a ton of value for free and you show them, you
Vit Muller:over delivers, oh, what else you got?
Vit Muller:And then you say, Hey, this is, this is this thing.
Vit Muller:I think they did it like for $1.
Vit Muller:You got $1, and then you got recordings like $1.
Vit Muller:I think the secret sauce in that transaction that you ask for, even if
Vit Muller:it's $1, is like, it get, like people might be hesitant about when they do
Vit Muller:commit and they do put their credit card, now they bought it, they actually feel
Vit Muller:confident in their decision because, it's same thing like, doing something scary.
Vit Muller:it's pretty much the same thing in a way.
Vit Muller:Right?
Vit Muller:Jumping a bungee jumping or something.
Vit Muller:you might be hesitant to do it, but then once you do it,
Vit Muller:you're like, wow, I did it.
Vit Muller:I feel so good.
Vit Muller:So then it just opens up a lot of doors to, to, to and up.
Vit Muller:So,
Jeffery Banek:And then when you make sure, if you ever do have a
Jeffery Banek:trip wire offer like that, you always overdeliver because then when they
Jeffery Banek:ask for a bigger, when you ask for more money, it's dude, like you just
Jeffery Banek:said, if you're this was that good, what's your big stuff look like?
Jeffery Banek:You know what I mean?
Jeffery Banek:And so, yeah, trip wires are really the way to go.
Jeffery Banek:I have a thing, man, I give away lead magnets, but I always tell my students
Jeffery Banek:coaching and stuff, I'm like, free is okay when you're very, very, very
Jeffery Banek:first starting out and you just have no traction at all and you have to get
Jeffery Banek:somebody to buy it for a case or use it for a case study or you need movement.
Jeffery Banek:But once you get past that, never give anybody anything for free because
Jeffery Banek:they really don't respect free.
Jeffery Banek:Nobody respects free.
Jeffery Banek:Oh, if it's a lead mat, I'll just come.
Jeffery Banek:I can get it to then, or I'll come back later.
Jeffery Banek:Nobody respects free, even if it's just $1.
Jeffery Banek:I had to go to the, and Brussel's book, expert Secrets right here.
Jeffery Banek:It's pretty funny.
Jeffery Banek:but even if I had to get outta my wallet and bring out a, bring out a credit
Jeffery Banek:card, I still had to do that action.
Jeffery Banek:I had to put the numbers in.
Jeffery Banek:I had to be charged and trust you that you're not going to
Jeffery Banek:mess me over for that dollar.
Jeffery Banek:Those little micro actions add up over time to where when it ask
Jeffery Banek:comes to asking for the big one.
Jeffery Banek:So much easier.
Jeffery Banek:So much easier.
Jeffery Banek:So again, they're brilliant because a dollar is nothing.
Jeffery Banek:But in your mind, knocking down all those dominoes and opening
Jeffery Banek:those doors for a bigger purchase
Vit Muller:So nothing for free upfront.
Vit Muller:Not even an ebook, not even
Jeffery Banek:again, well, so there's levels there.
Jeffery Banek:Well, here's, for me, my free stuff is like YouTube content and stuff like that.
Jeffery Banek:because there, it's gonna be, it's got exponential growth.
Jeffery Banek:I sort of think the days of a basic PDF lead magnet are gone.
Jeffery Banek:I mean, they're still there.
Jeffery Banek:People will opt in for like a, a, a blueprint or something like
Jeffery Banek:that, but for real exponential growth for most people now.
Jeffery Banek:and the way that YouTube algorithm is, you know how now if you do the right
Jeffery Banek:video, you can, anybody can go viral.
Jeffery Banek:Now, it used to go out to, you used to have a followers.
Jeffery Banek:They'd send it out to your followers and then depending on how your
Jeffery Banek:followers engaged with it to go out and then could go viral.
Jeffery Banek:Now they put it out to a test group.
Jeffery Banek:If that group does well, it goes out to the next and next and it
Jeffery Banek:your chance for virality on YouTube.
Jeffery Banek:Now you can have no followers at all and go viral.
Jeffery Banek:So not that that's gonna happen and you should count on it.
Jeffery Banek:But also, one thing why I always do YouTube videos, it allows
Jeffery Banek:for expertise of demonstration.
Jeffery Banek:If you wanna show people that you know something, no better way to do that than
Jeffery Banek:be able to show 'em, because here's the deal, 80 20 rule, 80% of them are gonna be
Jeffery Banek:like, oh, I'm gonna go do this on my own.
Jeffery Banek:Thanks for showing me this, Jeff, it was great.
Jeffery Banek:Thanks.
Jeffery Banek:You're super smart.
Jeffery Banek:Appreciate it.
Jeffery Banek:Which is amazing.
Jeffery Banek:Go out, make money, change lives with it.
Jeffery Banek:But that other 20% are gonna be, you know what, I don't wanna do this.
Jeffery Banek:Can I pay you?
Jeffery Banek:And they're gonna pay you.
Jeffery Banek:So it's just, it's the, the way the world's changed.
Jeffery Banek:And when it comes to lead magnet.
Jeffery Banek:I'd rather have something in there that's gonna have impact and reach
Jeffery Banek:versus, just a plain old, like PDF, like back in the day, you'd get a
Jeffery Banek:little cheat guide or something.
Jeffery Banek:What's your thought on that?
Vit Muller:Yeah.
Vit Muller:well, glad you asked.
Vit Muller:I'm big on emails, like I'm big on, I'm always thinking, that's your own media.
Vit Muller:You got control, and if you do it well, you stay top of mind
Vit Muller:and you've got, you always land in the inbox if you do it right.
Vit Muller:Whereas if it's YouTube and stuff like that, they might follow you.
Vit Muller:They might watch you.
Vit Muller:But what if they, what, if you did a workshop, a free webinar or something,
Vit Muller:and then on the back of that, now you've got an email so you can remarket.
Vit Muller:so that you can, yeah, like I said, stay top of mind.
Jeffery Banek:Yeah, no, I agree with the emails when, and I have that in all my
Jeffery Banek:series too, and in descriptions you'll see, Hey, jump in here, join my group.
Jeffery Banek:We always get emails and stuff.
Jeffery Banek:I totally agree.
Jeffery Banek:An email, your list is like one of the most important things you can have.
Jeffery Banek:I mean, because it's can't be taken away.
Jeffery Banek:Well, hopefully not anyway that I know of.
Jeffery Banek:But as long as you can get an email
Vit Muller:far.
Vit Muller:So far so good.
Jeffery Banek:to it, right?
Jeffery Banek:So far no one's taken that away.
Jeffery Banek:But, but yeah, I, I totally agree with that.
Jeffery Banek:like I said, I might require acquire other ways.
Jeffery Banek:Well, sometimes I'll have, I like to do, if I'm gonna do something
Jeffery Banek:now, I feel like it, for a lead magnet has to be even over the top.
Jeffery Banek:Like instead of it just being a a, a guide, it has to be like a mini
Jeffery Banek:course, like a mini, even if it's five video course, it feels like
Jeffery Banek:I, I don't know, maybe it's just me 'cause I like to overdeliver so
Jeffery Banek:much, but I just feel like it needs to be, I'm gonna give you my email.
Jeffery Banek:I wanna start building that type of know I can trust now.
Jeffery Banek:So here's a five part email se or video series on how to reengage your
Jeffery Banek:email list and turn it into dollars or something, you know what I mean?
Jeffery Banek:Whatever it is.
Jeffery Banek:But I just feel like that, I just don't think, the days of a cheat sheet or
Jeffery Banek:still, or, or that much here anymore.
Jeffery Banek:You know what I
Vit Muller:Yeah, I mean, the attention is short and people get more value out of
Vit Muller:watching a video or, or, or like you said, maybe even if it's a short email series
Vit Muller:or a course, but maybe just not the PDF.
Vit Muller:Yeah.
Vit Muller:I, I, I feel the same way about that one.
Vit Muller:That's for sure.
Vit Muller:I mean, the only way to find out is just to try and, and, Digging into the data.
Vit Muller:Now, speaking of digging into data about three or four years ago,
Vit Muller:I come across a cool site called Guru, which now is owned by Russell.
Vit Muller:He bought it, right?
Vit Muller:I'm sure you know that one.
Vit Muller:you know the guru?
Jeffery Banek:Oh, guru.
Jeffery Banek:Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Vit Muller:Guru?
Jeffery Banek:the, guru.
Jeffery Banek:Yeah.
Jeffery Banek:Yeah.
Vit Muller:yeah, yeah.
Vit Muller:Yeah.
Vit Muller:So it's now a part of, click ClickFunnels.
Vit Muller:and so what, for the guys, listen for those of you guys listening, what what
Vit Muller:it does is, is, I don't know if it's still available to sign up for it, but I
Jeffery Banek:Isn't it like, it was like funnel, wire framing, right?
Jeffery Banek:Where you could set the pages and it connected.
Jeffery Banek:It was sort of like,
Vit Muller:well, no,
Jeffery Banek:heard of funnel.
Vit Muller:yes.
Vit Muller:Okay.
Vit Muller:So you haven't, so you've used the different ones there, there's a few ones.
Vit Muller:Yeah.
Vit Muller:So I, I, I did dig into all of them, but I just settled for this one
Vit Muller:because I actually got lucky and I got a lifetime deal for that one.
Vit Muller:So, so that was a good one.
Vit Muller:But, what it is, is they've got a list of all of the different funnel concepts,
Vit Muller:like you mentioned, strip fire, and there's 30 different ones, like so many
Vit Muller:different nuances and you just pick one.
Vit Muller:And you upload it into, into this whiteboard.
Vit Muller:And then you've got the little icons of all the representing the, the steps
Vit Muller:in the bio journey, the, the funnel.
Vit Muller:but then you can put numbers across for each one of them.
Vit Muller:And then you can do simulation.
Vit Muller:So like a, okay, I'm gonna put thousand bucks on the ads, and then
Vit Muller:I know that people come through here and here is the breaking point
Vit Muller:here is where 50% go here and 50% go here, or whatever the number is.
Vit Muller:And you can basically put numbers at beginning.
Vit Muller:You might not have the real numbers, so you just put some numbers and
Vit Muller:you just press simulate and it'll just go and it'll just go, this
Vit Muller:is how much money you could make.
Vit Muller:And then you run it, it does what, what it doesn't have, it doesn't have a
Vit Muller:real time data feed, so you always have to manually adjust those conversions.
Vit Muller:But I like it anyway because it's It allows you to have a bit of fun, or you
Vit Muller:should, you can show it to clients like, Hey, we could do this, we could do this.
Vit Muller:And now with this AI thing, this, I'm gonna do this.
Vit Muller:I haven't done it yet, but it makes total sense.
Vit Muller:I'm gonna say, well, look now we're also gonna plug in the dedicated chat
Vit Muller:widget on the landing page and on the back end, and we're gonna set up a, a
Vit Muller:voice outbound that's gonna call them, obviously after they've opted in Big K.
Vit Muller:We, for you guys listening, don't dive into that outbound.
Vit Muller:You're gonna be in trouble, make you take opt-ins.
Vit Muller:But you know, so now you can bundle that funnel with the, with the voice,
Vit Muller:ai, outbound, or jet wit, or, or maybe even, set up your automation
Vit Muller:with a really good prompt that every single email is custom personalized.
Jeffery Banek:Yeah, I always, whenever we work with a client, I'll give, I
Jeffery Banek:have a client version and then I have my team's version because the client
Jeffery Banek:version, you go too much and they don't understand it and become overwhelmed.
Jeffery Banek:So you just want to give 'em like a 30,000 foot view.
Jeffery Banek:But I love to lay it out oh, here's a bot's gonna be here.
Jeffery Banek:Oh, an email's gonna be here, just like you're talking about.
Jeffery Banek:And then I always have a team version where it's okay, instead of
Jeffery Banek:it just being one email, it's okay, this is a 12 part email series.
Jeffery Banek:We're focusing on this, or whatever it is and goes deeper on it.
Jeffery Banek:But I'm really big on wire framing out the ecosystem, just because there's some
Jeffery Banek:people that need the visual aspect of it.
Jeffery Banek:And you have so many people, especially when you're working with
Jeffery Banek:a team and getting stuff done, you need to be able to hit everybody on
Jeffery Banek:their individual levels and mediums.
Jeffery Banek:They understand.
Jeffery Banek:And if you're using it as a, as a promo part is for part of like your proposal
Jeffery Banek:or deal, you really need the person who has no tech, no understanding, to be
Jeffery Banek:able to look at it and be able to go.
Jeffery Banek:Okay.
Jeffery Banek:I understand how stuff's flowing and cooking, hooking together now.
Jeffery Banek:So you always want to keep it very simple, but I agree.
Jeffery Banek:It's a very powerful tool for sure.
Vit Muller:Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
Vit Muller:And we have this thing saying in Czech Republic, that's where I'm from.
Vit Muller:measure twice cut once.
Vit Muller:if you're gonna cut the tree, you only got that one.
Vit Muller:So once you've cut the tree, that's it.
Vit Muller:So make sure you measure exactly where you're gonna cut that tree and
Vit Muller:same thing goes like your clients.
Vit Muller:And they would something custom built.
Vit Muller:I, I think the best way to do it is just to do it like, kinda like on
Vit Muller:an up or separately, not going to GHL and start building right away.
Vit Muller:'cause it's
Jeffery Banek:Oh yeah,
Vit Muller:Right.
Vit Muller:What's your process?
Vit Muller:Is it.
Jeffery Banek:Oh yeah, we do.
Jeffery Banek:nor it's sped up so much because of AI used to take a week, but
Jeffery Banek:we have a whole onboarding flow.
Jeffery Banek:So they'll come on, we'll, we'll sign 'em up, they'll do all the invoices,
Jeffery Banek:all the, contracts, all that stuff.
Jeffery Banek:then we send an onboarding form that's about.
Jeffery Banek:34 questions.
Jeffery Banek:It goes into everything about their business, from, finances to marketing
Jeffery Banek:to like their ideal customer, what keeps 'em up at night, all that type of stuff.
Jeffery Banek:and then we set up a discovery call after that, after we've gone through we, 'cause
Jeffery Banek:we'll have like them list competitors if they're running ads, like we go
Jeffery Banek:deep in everything about their system.
Jeffery Banek:Like I said, just take a week to do that.
Jeffery Banek:Now it's two days to get it done.
Jeffery Banek:'cause we just scrape everything with ai.
Jeffery Banek:We just drop in URL and just goes out and scrapes it all and then gives
Jeffery Banek:it to us in, amazing summaries now.
Jeffery Banek:but we'll go out and do that.
Jeffery Banek:Then we do an actual onboarding call where we go over everything we've discovered,
Jeffery Banek:show them how we're gonna build everything, what it's gonna look like,
Jeffery Banek:and then we lay a timeline out for it.
Jeffery Banek:And then we get to work pretty much.
Vit Muller:I like and do, do you also go through some feedback loops
Vit Muller:with the client as well to see what they think and what, where they,
Jeffery Banek:yeah, standardly, it depends on the project.
Jeffery Banek:Most stuff.
Jeffery Banek:Initially we get all the impact and then, or impact all the actual info.
Jeffery Banek:And then if there comes like a question, we'll set up a session.
Jeffery Banek:But usually it's not until it's almost done standard.
Jeffery Banek:I give two revisions.
Jeffery Banek:We give what we call the first is a major revision.
Jeffery Banek:We go in, they're fine.
Jeffery Banek:Everything they want to change.
Jeffery Banek:They don't like the voice sounded this way, it needs to respond this way.
Jeffery Banek:Oh, this automation needs to be a little bit different.
Jeffery Banek:Whatever it is.
Jeffery Banek:They give us a big list.
Jeffery Banek:Then we go back in, change everything, and then you get a final revision where
Jeffery Banek:it's like minor stuff at that point.
Jeffery Banek:Oh, a little tweak here, a little.
Jeffery Banek:And then we launch and go live standard.
Jeffery Banek:There's usually a 60 to 30 day contract afterwards where we're doing optimization,
Jeffery Banek:helping to dial everything in, and then clients are able to continue on
Jeffery Banek:with us after that if they choose.
Jeffery Banek:But yeah, that's our standard flow.
Vit Muller:And you do everything in GHL these days.
Jeffery Banek:as a majority, we'll do other stuff.
Jeffery Banek:See, that's the other thing too.
Jeffery Banek:We've gone so heavy into AI now, it doesn't matter.
Jeffery Banek:Sorry, I got some of my eye here.
Jeffery Banek:It doesn't matter, if they're in high level or what system because with APIs
Jeffery Banek:and MCPs, for those who don't know APIs or basically like the ability
Jeffery Banek:for AI to make a phone call to third party software and be able to talk
Jeffery Banek:to it and answer questions and get information and give and get information.
Jeffery Banek:where, and now they have a MCP, which is basically you can set up every one
Jeffery Banek:of those phone calls or that, you can think of it like a call bank where
Jeffery Banek:everybody can call out and do a special task where all those are now sitting
Jeffery Banek:in one room together, all working together, and the AI just points to one
Jeffery Banek:and go, you do this tool, you do this tool, you'll do this, and you do this.
Jeffery Banek:And it just works like magic.
Jeffery Banek:It's crazy how good it is.
Jeffery Banek:So because of that, now all we need is API access to some third party
Jeffery Banek:software and we can turn their, whatever they're doing in AI superpowers,
Jeffery Banek:we're used to not be able to do that.
Jeffery Banek:But now with N eight N and a lot of third party stuff, and with
Jeffery Banek:CPS, you can make magic happen.
Jeffery Banek:So yes, we're really primary and high level because there's
Jeffery Banek:such a community and great ama.
Jeffery Banek:I mean the, the founders and everything are just so cool.
Jeffery Banek:But, now since we've really gone into higher level ecosystems, we're opening up.
Jeffery Banek:So it doesn't matter if you're using HubSpot or whatever it is, if it's
Jeffery Banek:got API access, we'll get into it and we'll, we'll turn it into AI for you.
Vit Muller:Yeah.
Vit Muller:Nice.
Vit Muller:I like it.
Vit Muller:I had a subsequent question.
Vit Muller:Oh yeah, I know.
Vit Muller:so you were big on, on building funnels for years.
Vit Muller:One thing about building funnels is like you've got always control.
Vit Muller:it's kind of like a static thing, right?
Vit Muller:You copy, you put it in, you put it in place, and there it is,
Vit Muller:and, and you can rely on it then I'll just talk from my experience.
Vit Muller:Right?
Vit Muller:Then you go and start working with clients and this AI thing comes up and so you
Vit Muller:start offering AI jet boards with ai
Jeffery Banek:Yeah.
Vit Muller:and it's not the same.
Vit Muller:It's like you can, you can do as much at best of your ability to prompt
Vit Muller:it out, but it's this Pandora box.
Vit Muller:We don't really know.
Vit Muller:We don't, we can't really predict to like a hundred.
Vit Muller:So it's like this whole new beast where then you go and you deploy
Vit Muller:and then the client goes, I don't like this, or I don't like that.
Vit Muller:Like how did you, how did you react to those situations when they started?
Vit Muller:I mean, to me it was like how that's frustrating.
Jeffery Banek:You're bro, you're a hundred percent right.
Jeffery Banek:I always tell my students and everybody I work with them, your first
Jeffery Banek:prompt is never your last prompt.
Jeffery Banek:With ai, it's about reiteration.
Jeffery Banek:That's why there's normally that 60, and 90 day window afterwards.
Jeffery Banek:Because here's the deal, man, we have tested till our, till.
Jeffery Banek:We were blue in the face, saying we have tested just everything
Jeffery Banek:we think of, and then we launch.
Jeffery Banek:Then somebody does something that we never even thought about.
Jeffery Banek:You know what I mean?
Jeffery Banek:Because once you put out to the real world, they're there,
Jeffery Banek:they're doing their own thing.
Jeffery Banek:so that's why watching your transcript, setting up evaluation bots in there
Jeffery Banek:where you can actually have the evaluation, the bot that look at
Jeffery Banek:transcript looking how the AI's performing, and then giving evaluation.
Jeffery Banek:So if it's not getting close to the top right response, it will alert us.
Jeffery Banek:So we've got feedback loops and things we're putting on there as well as weekly
Jeffery Banek:checkups just to make sure that man, and we have it all automated now, where
Jeffery Banek:every call, they download the transcript and AI goes through that and gives us a
Jeffery Banek:summary so we know what's doing and stuff.
Jeffery Banek:But before high level would allow transcripts, we had
Jeffery Banek:to do that all by hand.
Jeffery Banek:So we had VAs like reading it and scripting in, we had stuff like that.
Jeffery Banek:But so, yeah, but that's really the best way to do it, is to make sure
Jeffery Banek:that that you, when you get AI.
Jeffery Banek:It is probably not gonna be perfect right now, depending on how intricate
Jeffery Banek:it is, if it's just simple answering the phone and stuff, basic FAQ, it can be
Jeffery Banek:pretty close to perfect outta the box.
Jeffery Banek:But again, you're gonna have people that are gonna do weird stuff.
Jeffery Banek:I had a guy one time, so we program it now, never to go off topic, but
Jeffery Banek:I had a guy one time that spent 30 minutes talking to the AI about how to
Jeffery Banek:bake a cake, a vanilla cake at that.
Jeffery Banek:It was, I don't know, that was just, we're checking the transcripts.
Jeffery Banek:It's 30 minutes of him talking about it was like maybe he was a cook
Jeffery Banek:or so, because he is talking about like techniques and stuff and the
Jeffery Banek:AI will just, if it doesn't know better, it will just talk to you.
Jeffery Banek:So it did.
Jeffery Banek:now we have rail, guardrails and stuff for that, so we'll stay on topic.
Jeffery Banek:But when we were very first starting again, it's so new ai,
Jeffery Banek:let's be honest, people don't really even know how it works.
Jeffery Banek:It just guesses and guesses, right?
Jeffery Banek:I mean, if you go ask even the people that are making you go to open ai,
Jeffery Banek:you ask them, so how does AI work?
Jeffery Banek:They're like.
Jeffery Banek:I, it guesses and guesses.
Jeffery Banek:Right.
Jeffery Banek:If you look at what's crazy, like even images, what they call it is diffusion.
Jeffery Banek:So it starts and just starts knocking off like colors until all
Jeffery Banek:of a sudden it becomes an image and then that image is what you want.
Jeffery Banek:That's crazy.
Jeffery Banek:But that's how AI works.
Vit Muller:Is that how it does it
Jeffery Banek:Yeah.
Jeffery Banek:Diffusion.
Jeffery Banek:Yeah.
Jeffery Banek:That's why you had a stable Diffusion was the name of a a, but they, it's
Jeffery Banek:called a diffusion model and it literally just starts knocking out like what It
Jeffery Banek:guesses what the image is supposed to look like and it makes it, and that's
Jeffery Banek:why images have gone from where they were so crazy and janky and you had 16
Jeffery Banek:fingers and stuff to where they are now because it's gotten better guessing.
Vit Muller:I never thought of it that way, but yeah.
Vit Muller:I mean, there's gotta be some, there's gotta be a computer language for it
Vit Muller:to understand, so that makes sense.
Jeffery Banek:I mean, there is, but even with it, With the way it works
Jeffery Banek:and talks to you, it's just guessing what the next word's supposed to be.
Jeffery Banek:It doesn't actually know context to where like we talk and we hear it and
Jeffery Banek:I'm like, okay, I need to say this next.
Jeffery Banek:It is so much data that it guesses what words supposed to be next and it's right.
Jeffery Banek:That's how that gets away from hallucinations and stuff
Jeffery Banek:are being decreased, but that's how that stuff happens.
Jeffery Banek:'cause it guesses, it just goes off into space sometimes and becomes hallucination.
Jeffery Banek:But that's for people that don't know hallucinations.
Jeffery Banek:When AI just makes stuff up is what they call hallucinations, but,
Jeffery Banek:but yeah, it just guesses, man.
Vit Muller:or or if you're just using a plane and you don't put
Vit Muller:any guard rails, then it generates like those articles where it's in
Vit Muller:today's world of this and that, it's like they always start that way.
Vit Muller:It's so funny.
Vit Muller:Yeah, I think so.
Vit Muller:The important thing with ai, when it comes to chat bots and all
Vit Muller:that, is being realistic, right?
Vit Muller:Being realistic and understand that nothing's gonna come
Vit Muller:out of the gate perfect.
Vit Muller:But if you commit over time, it gets better.
Vit Muller:Now, I had an experience working with an agency earlier in this year and they
Vit Muller:wanted something built and they're like, they gave me a few, couple of clients.
Vit Muller:I said look, I can build you really good snapshots.
Vit Muller:But, and we did it and we had, we had a thing that, you call and it checks the
Vit Muller:water quality in your area based on an API because of the government database.
Vit Muller:So it tells you the biggest contaminants and that's the concern.
Vit Muller:You long, long-term exposure could lead to cancer, all that type of stuff.
Vit Muller:So that was all cool.
Vit Muller:But then on the back we had the chat board and then they never wanted to rule it out.
Vit Muller:They never wanted to start selling it to clients.
Vit Muller:'cause like we got first few and they're like, yeah, it
Vit Muller:doesn't, don't really like it.
Vit Muller:It's not always on point.
Vit Muller:I'm like, yeah, but the only way we're gonna make it on point is having more
Vit Muller:use cases and optimizing as we go.
Vit Muller:So I think that's the important thing, right?
Vit Muller:Like you, you need to, 'cause what's the alternative?
Vit Muller:The alternative is ah, don't want it.
Vit Muller:I don't want it.
Vit Muller:This sucks.
Vit Muller:you could decide on that, but the rest of the world, or people who get this, they'll
Vit Muller:keep moving on and they'll overpass you.
Jeffery Banek:AI is the worst it's gonna be right now.
Jeffery Banek:I mean, I'm sure you've heard that before.
Jeffery Banek:It's one of the most common saying, but it's the most truthful saying
Jeffery Banek:that it doesn't matter whether you hate it or will love it now, it's only
Jeffery Banek:gonna get better and it's only gonna get better at a exponential rate.
Jeffery Banek:You in a year from me, a year from now, have another podcast and we'll talk about
Jeffery Banek:AI and we can talk about how crazy it's gonna have changed just in the year.
Jeffery Banek:I mean, from robotics to quantum computing to so much stuff right now, that's all AI
Jeffery Banek:driven because now we can store more data.
Jeffery Banek:I mean, that's really was the limiting factor and why AI never took off before
Jeffery Banek:is because we couldn't store enough data to be able to make it a functional use.
Jeffery Banek:It was, it was dumb because it couldn't have enough context,
Jeffery Banek:window and stuff like that.
Vit Muller:Yeah.
Vit Muller:Yeah.
Vit Muller:So what's some of the like really unique use cases you've seen with AI so far?
Jeffery Banek:well, I love all the stuff that we're doing with webinars.
Jeffery Banek:Works really good.
Jeffery Banek:Speed to lead is so important right now for outbound calling.
Jeffery Banek:It's one of the easiest things to get a quick win for, for any business,
Jeffery Banek:especially if they're busy, because you've got people that are filling out forms,
Jeffery Banek:they're interested, they're opting in, whatever, and they want information now,
Jeffery Banek:they might be ready to buy right now.
Jeffery Banek:Well, you can have AI call them, engage with them, answer all their questions.
Jeffery Banek:We have 'em upsell them, walk 'em through the whole process.
Jeffery Banek:You can even set the intensity of how much you want the AI to be aggressive
Jeffery Banek:for sales and how you want to sales.
Jeffery Banek:So, I really think that those, that outbound calling and engaging with
Jeffery Banek:people and getting them, excited and finding out customer data is huge.
Jeffery Banek:Huge, huge, huge, huge market.
Jeffery Banek:Beyond a cold calling or any of that type of stuff I'm talking about
Jeffery Banek:when you already have a hot lead.
Jeffery Banek:Or a warm lead, getting AI to call them, engage with them and turn
Jeffery Banek:them in from warm in the hot because there's so many questions people want.
Jeffery Banek:And if, especially for local businesses, we're really focusing a lot of local
Jeffery Banek:businesses, unlike normal where, where small businesses move faster than big
Jeffery Banek:businesses, like implementing stuff.
Jeffery Banek:For the first time ever with ai, big businesses are moving
Jeffery Banek:faster than small businesses.
Jeffery Banek:They're dumping billions into making AI happen, where mom and
Jeffery Banek:PA and local businesses are like, I don't know about this AI thing.
Jeffery Banek:I'm worried about messing with my brand.
Jeffery Banek:What if it says the wrong thing?
Jeffery Banek:What if it does the wrong thing?
Jeffery Banek:I'm not sure we're big businesses are like, who cares?
Jeffery Banek:We're dumping money into this.
Jeffery Banek:We're going, so normally it's the other way because small
Jeffery Banek:businesses move so much faster.
Jeffery Banek:They don't have to get a lot of permission.
Jeffery Banek:They don't have con, panels and stuff, but for the first time ever
Jeffery Banek:because of ai, it's the opposite.
Jeffery Banek:So because of that, we're targeting a lot of local businesses that
Jeffery Banek:just don't know how to use AI yet.
Jeffery Banek:But that's one of the huge one is that speed to lead.
Jeffery Banek:Getting within the first minute of being able to get back on the phone.
Jeffery Banek:And even if you can't answer all their questions, either put 'em in contact,
Jeffery Banek:then that AI hands 'em off to a human or worst case scenario of books a
Jeffery Banek:call so that you're able to get 'em on a sales call or be able to answer
Jeffery Banek:their question with a human person.
Vit Muller:yeah guys, in 2007, MIT they did a study, called the Speed Too Late,
Vit Muller:and to this day, it still holds true.
Vit Muller:If you don't follow like any, any bite you follow up with the first five minutes.
Vit Muller:Has way higher likelihood in conversion than anybody else after
Vit Muller:that five minute breaking point.
Vit Muller:I dunno the numbers exactly, but you get it.
Vit Muller:what does your common sense tell you?
Vit Muller:Right?
Vit Muller:So it holds true to this day.
Vit Muller:so I just wanna, I've got, I had a couple more questions on the,
Vit Muller:on the funnels, if that's okay.
Jeffery Banek:Yeah, yeah.
Jeffery Banek:Ask away, brother.
Jeffery Banek:Ask away another
Vit Muller:funnel, I gotta,
Jeffery Banek:Yeah, go ahead.
Jeffery Banek:Ask, ask away.
Jeffery Banek:Ask your que ask questions.
Jeffery Banek:Go ahead, brother.
Vit Muller:when you have the funnel funnel doctor here, you
Vit Muller:gotta, you, you gotta ask, right?
Jeffery Banek:Yeah, please.
Jeffery Banek:it was like the first six years of my 10 year experience, that's all we did
Jeffery Banek:was eat, sleep, and breathe funnels.
Jeffery Banek:I mean, when I first started out.
Jeffery Banek:The ClickFunnels group was only like 32,000 people.
Jeffery Banek:And I didn't know I had, I got.com secrets and when I, my first, my mentor,
Jeffery Banek:he was this guy named Bedros Keuilian.
Jeffery Banek:And I was actually a personal trainer trying to figure out how to move
Jeffery Banek:my personal training brand online.
Jeffery Banek:I was like, this, you gotta do this online thing.
Jeffery Banek:This was a 2015, 2016.
Jeffery Banek:I'm like, you gotta move online.
Jeffery Banek:And then, I was under studying sales under a guy named Bedros Keuilian and one day
Jeffery Banek:he holds up this book, it was.com not expert, but he was like, dot com secret.
Jeffery Banek:You gotta read it from this guy, Russell Brunson, who's the greatest.
Jeffery Banek:And just like being any good student, if your mentor tells you
Jeffery Banek:to read something, you read it.
Jeffery Banek:But man, I'll tell you that it was like when Neo saw the Matrix for the
Jeffery Banek:first time, I was like, up sales, webinars, funnels, websites are dead.
Jeffery Banek:I'm like, this is the future.
Jeffery Banek:And that's when I got this tattoo.
Jeffery Banek:Was, I was like, this is like me going all in.
Jeffery Banek:I'm like, literally, I'm like, funnels are the future.
Jeffery Banek:Websites are dead.
Jeffery Banek:I'm gonna go all in on this ClickFunnels thing because I
Jeffery Banek:believe so much in Russell.
Jeffery Banek:I would literally fall asleep on my desk watching old videos of Russell when you
Jeffery Banek:look like he was 15 when we did marketing.
Jeffery Banek:Quickies, quickies and stuff.
Vit Muller:For this potato gun.
Jeffery Banek:yes, exactly.
Jeffery Banek:All that back in the day.
Jeffery Banek:Learned him love, love Russell so much.
Jeffery Banek:I learned so much from, I have so much I owe to ClickFunnels and stuff, but
Jeffery Banek:unfortunately that's a, we can talk about that later if you want to, but
Jeffery Banek:the whole ClickFunnel's falling off.
Jeffery Banek:But yeah, that was really, I was like, you know what?
Jeffery Banek:To really master something, it is one thing if I know it, but it's another
Jeffery Banek:thing when I can show other people.
Jeffery Banek:So I would spend six to eight hours a day in the ClickFunnels
Jeffery Banek:group just helping people.
Jeffery Banek:I'd jump on zooms, look stuff, whatever it took to be able to help people.
Jeffery Banek:And then all of a sudden, this guy, one day Kevin David puts in the group.
Jeffery Banek:Hey, I need help with my funnels.
Jeffery Banek:And dude, I was so dead broke.
Jeffery Banek:I was married at the time.
Jeffery Banek:My wife had been sort of supporting us.
Jeffery Banek:She just lost her job.
Jeffery Banek:We were about to get evicted.
Jeffery Banek:I'm no joke.
Jeffery Banek:We're like, I had a pawn, my wife's wedding ring, just to be able to pay rent,
Jeffery Banek:and it was, I was so broke at the time.
Jeffery Banek:Again, I was just a trainer.
Jeffery Banek:It was an heirloom my mom had given me to ask her to marry.
Jeffery Banek:So when we pawned it, we could only get 800 bucks for it.
Jeffery Banek:Our rent was like 1200.
Jeffery Banek:So we had to borrow 400 from her parents, which her dad never
Jeffery Banek:looked at me the same after that.
Jeffery Banek:But anyway, so all of a sudden this guy puts a post in the group.
Jeffery Banek:He is like, yeah, I need help with my funnels.
Jeffery Banek:And everybody just starts tagging me.
Jeffery Banek:I wasn't the funnel doc back then.
Jeffery Banek:I says, Jeff, they're like, Jeff's the guy.
Jeffery Banek:Jeff's guy.
Jeffery Banek:Jeff's guy.
Jeffery Banek:Jeff's guy.
Jeffery Banek:So he meets with me.
Jeffery Banek:I show him some funnels I built.
Jeffery Banek:I show him the tattoo.
Jeffery Banek:He is well, everybody says you're the guy.
Jeffery Banek:You got the tattoo.
Jeffery Banek:Everybody's tagging you.
Jeffery Banek:And, Kevin, that time, he paid me five grand to make his entire webinar
Jeffery Banek:ecosystem, like every, I, we did everything but the course in the webinar
Jeffery Banek:itself, he did, but we built out all the followup, all the funnel, everything
Jeffery Banek:he did, and then that one launched.
Jeffery Banek:And, do you know who Dan Henry is?
Vit Muller:I've heard of him.
Vit Muller:I know he's a pretty big name.
Jeffery Banek:So he was big in ClickFunnels back then.
Jeffery Banek:He was actually the number one guy for the fastest to million.
Jeffery Banek:And we broke his record back then.
Jeffery Banek:This was in 2017.
Jeffery Banek:We did, 1.2 million to 57 days.
Jeffery Banek:And that was, that one went on to break 10 million in 18 months and
Jeffery Banek:went on to do 26 million altogether.
Jeffery Banek:And that was the ma first major funnel.
Jeffery Banek:I made.
Jeffery Banek:The second one I made for him, didn't do as well.
Jeffery Banek:It only did 11 million.
Jeffery Banek:and then I have multiple other two commas from other people.
Jeffery Banek:I had a, a person that was a yoga instructor.
Jeffery Banek:I had a email person.
Jeffery Banek:I had a guy that actually I coached that blew my mind that he wound up getting
Jeffery Banek:two comma flipping trading cards.
Jeffery Banek:He had a coaching program on how to flip trading cards.
Jeffery Banek:When he came to me, he wanted coaching and he was just like, dude, I got this.
Jeffery Banek:And I was just like, trading card.
Jeffery Banek:I'm like, alright bro, I'll show you what to do.
Jeffery Banek:And then he measured to me like, no joke.
Jeffery Banek:Like a year and a half later he is dude, I did it.
Jeffery Banek:And I'm like, what?
Jeffery Banek:He's I got a two comma award.
Jeffery Banek:I'm like, shut up two, you did it.
Jeffery Banek:He is yes, for teaching people how to go out and being able to itemize and figure
Jeffery Banek:out which cards were right to buy 'em for.
Jeffery Banek:And yeah, so we've got multiple stuff.
Jeffery Banek:And then that one up there, this is actually, this is the world, in
Jeffery Banek:the Guinness Book, world Records.
Jeffery Banek:September, 18th or 2018, September 25th, 2000 18th, ClickFunnels
Jeffery Banek:rented out Boise Stadium.
Jeffery Banek:They brought in Gary V they brought in all the top influencers, like we're talking
Jeffery Banek:people like a hundred million followers.
Jeffery Banek:They just paid to have 'em all flown into Boise.
Jeffery Banek:They rented out Boise State.
Jeffery Banek:And then they, we, we, got all the big, those big inflatable balls
Jeffery Banek:you can run into people with, you know what I'm talking about?
Jeffery Banek:They're
Vit Muller:Yeah.
Vit Muller:Yeah.
Jeffery Banek:So we, we set the record for the largest ever
Jeffery Banek:human, so, human soccer game.
Jeffery Banek:So in Boise, they rent out Boise Stadium.
Jeffery Banek:Gary V gave a big old speech and presentation, and then we all got in
Jeffery Banek:those and they actually had Guinness Book and we played each other on
Jeffery Banek:Boise State, on the blue AstroTurf.
Jeffery Banek:And so now I'm in the Guinness Book, world Records.
Jeffery Banek:Thanks ClickFunnels.
Jeffery Banek:So
Vit Muller:Oh man,
Jeffery Banek:own 'em for a lot.
Jeffery Banek:So that was really, that's one of the coolest things.
Jeffery Banek:People are like, oh, you did 60 million.
Jeffery Banek:They're like, that's not cool.
Jeffery Banek:Oh, you're in the Guinness Book World Records.
Jeffery Banek:That's cool.
Jeffery Banek:it's so funny.
Vit Muller:I love that.
Vit Muller:That's, oh man, that, that would've been an epic.
Vit Muller:Yeah.
Jeffery Banek:Oh, dude, it was so cool, man.
Jeffery Banek:And even the coolest, Russell's an idol.
Jeffery Banek:I mean, we became good friends later on, but at this time
Jeffery Banek:he was like an idol of mine.
Jeffery Banek:I'm like seeing him like, oh my God, there's Russell.
Jeffery Banek:And during the event there's one time where we like went
Jeffery Banek:heads up and we were slam.
Jeffery Banek:It was so much fun, dude, just being guys and stuff, but oh yeah, man, so many
Jeffery Banek:great experiences over the last 10 years.
Jeffery Banek:It's been such an amazing journey.
Vit Muller:that's one thing I, I keep hearing like the events that he puts
Vit Muller:on are really awesome to this day.
Jeffery Banek:It's like life changing, bro.
Jeffery Banek:It's, it's seriously, like funnel hacking Live was a life changing event.
Jeffery Banek:When you went, you left a different person.
Jeffery Banek:It, seriously, that was one thing that Russell, I mean, Russell's great
Jeffery Banek:and amazing in a lot of things, but being able to build a community and
Jeffery Banek:make a a, a movement was something that he was just so good at,
Jeffery Banek:dude, and he did so well for sure.
Vit Muller:Yeah, I can feel the passion, mate.
Vit Muller:I can feel the passion.
Vit Muller:I've, I've never been part of that community.
Vit Muller:I've, I've started straight up with high level before.
Vit Muller:I, I knew about ClickFunnels, but I never went into that, for, that
Vit Muller:wasn't real reason, but I just didn't.
Vit Muller:but yeah.
Vit Muller:that's epic.
Vit Muller:Does he still run those, by the way?
Jeffery Banek:So, no, they had their last one, I believe
Jeffery Banek:a year the year before last.
Jeffery Banek:So two years ago they shut 'em down.
Jeffery Banek:They're, ClickFunnels has died off pretty much like I love Ru Russell.
Jeffery Banek:I was one of the first people to get access to ClickFunnels 2.0.
Jeffery Banek:If you see when they launched it, they did this Brady Bear like square.
Jeffery Banek:Like I'm down in the bottom corner right there, you see me go.
Jeffery Banek:and it was had potential to do.
Jeffery Banek:Amazing, but they missed their window of opportunity.
Jeffery Banek:And because of that now, I mean like, I don't know how much, like
Jeffery Banek:when was the last time you heard anything about ClickFunnels 2.0?
Vit Muller:No.
Jeffery Banek:It'd been literally a year now I've heard, I haven't heard anything.
Jeffery Banek:I mean, they're, they're a couple years ago, they were not, they're doing new
Jeffery Banek:features and they were trying to, now it's all Russell's new offer lab thing that
Jeffery Banek:he's doing and all of his affiliate stuff.
Jeffery Banek:you don't hear anything about ClickFunnels 2.0 anymore.
Jeffery Banek:And, I will always have a special spot in my heart for them.
Jeffery Banek:But one of the differences that I found right away between high level
Jeffery Banek:and ClickFunnels is ClickFunnels is a lot more, and please, if anyone
Jeffery Banek:watches this from ClickFunnels, don't take this wrong, but it's a lot
Jeffery Banek:more dreamers, like one funnel away.
Jeffery Banek:we're gonna make a million dollars.
Jeffery Banek:We're gonna do it, we're gonna be impact and change the world.
Jeffery Banek:I mean, I have impact and income tattooed my body.
Jeffery Banek:That's how much I feel that we can change the world.
Jeffery Banek:And that's a lot of that has to do with Russell, but it's a lot more
Jeffery Banek:of a dreamer mentality where really it's 80% dream and 20% achieve.
Jeffery Banek:Where it's a little different and, and high level.
Jeffery Banek:It's like high level's, a bunch of doers where even on the smallest level,
Jeffery Banek:someone's got an agency, they're doing something, they're selling something,
Jeffery Banek:they're making something with high level.
Jeffery Banek:They're where, where everybody else was sort of just one funnel away.
Jeffery Banek:Where high level, again, that's always been my comparison, where
Jeffery Banek:ClickFunnels felt a little bit more like dreamers, where again,
Jeffery Banek:there's nothing wrong with that.
Jeffery Banek:We need dreamers, but high level is much more doers.
Jeffery Banek:When you talk to 'em at you're level up, they're like, so
Jeffery Banek:what numbers have you done?
Jeffery Banek:What have you done?
Jeffery Banek:They're not what, what's your plan?
Jeffery Banek:What's your vision?
Jeffery Banek:As much,
Vit Muller:Yeah.
Vit Muller:And this is, this is what attracted me so much.
Vit Muller:'cause, ah.
Vit Muller:I was actually, I heard, did I hear right that you were a personal trainer?
Jeffery Banek:Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Jeffery Banek:for 18 years.
Jeffery Banek:For 18 years, when I got outta the military, that was the first thing I
Jeffery Banek:did for 18 years was a personal trainer.
Vit Muller:Alright, so, so here's what we have in common.
Vit Muller:I, I came to Australia in 2010 on a student visa and I studied
Vit Muller:fitness and I've been a personal trainer for about eight years.
Vit Muller:And I, I, I haven't, mentioned this story, so I'll, I'll
Vit Muller:just do a little short story.
Vit Muller:It might interest you.
Vit Muller:my journey into marketing and how I've fallen off with marketing and
Vit Muller:then how high level tied into it.
Vit Muller:So, well, so I was, I was, I just got freshly qualified as
Vit Muller:a set three fitness instructor.
Vit Muller:So you could do classes.
Vit Muller:You can't do one-to-one, but you can do classes, you could work a gym reception,
Vit Muller:you can walk the floor, help people out.
Vit Muller:That was like late 2010.
Vit Muller:Then I got qualified set four.
Vit Muller:So I got job in the gym in Sydney.
Vit Muller:Then I got set four and and I started doing personal training because the
Vit Muller:guys that I trained, doing boxing classes and, all the different circuit
Vit Muller:training classes, whatever, I, I built bit of rapport with those people.
Vit Muller:So then when I can be pt, they, they also wanted to just grab for some
Vit Muller:one-on-one time and just train with me.
Vit Muller:So I, I had a really good, it all looked so good.
Vit Muller:And then one day, it was in this big building, in, in a CBD in this,
Vit Muller:in the business district, lawyers, bankers, really good quality
Vit Muller:clients, good money, everything.
Vit Muller:And then one day the big developer called Cos they're like, ah,
Vit Muller:we're, we're doing a big refurb.
Vit Muller:And they were doing refurb downstairs and you guys are good.
Vit Muller:You guys are good.
Vit Muller:You guys are good.
Vit Muller:No, no, we're not going upstairs, you guys.
Vit Muller:And then next Monday he's you guys got four weeks.
Vit Muller:So my mate, he lost his gym.
Vit Muller:And then I was like, where am I gonna go?
Vit Muller:So I could go to, we got this fitness first franchise across
Vit Muller:Australia, big box gyms, but they, you gotta pay franchise fee.
Vit Muller:You gotta, you gotta spend 20, 20 hours for free working the floor plus
Vit Muller:pay weekly rent, and wear the uniform.
Vit Muller:hang on a minute, what's the upside here?
Vit Muller:So, so I was like, nah, I, I wanna kind of build my own brand.
Vit Muller:So I started to think like one of my mates, Get Fit with Vit.
Vit Muller:So I showed and they call it VitFit and,
Jeffery Banek:Oh, nice.
Jeffery Banek:That's
Vit Muller:and so I went, yeah, thanks.
Vit Muller:I went around the gyms, I'm like, you know what, I'm just gonna go out in the park
Vit Muller:and we're train people out in the park.
Vit Muller:And so I start little bootcamp business, but I realized, unlike
Vit Muller:being in the big box gym where you get access to a new members
Vit Muller:coming in, where you get prospects.
Vit Muller:Out in a park.
Vit Muller:you don't really get that.
Vit Muller:So I was like, I need a website to build a jump online.
Vit Muller:Look at Wix.
Vit Muller:Wix popped up.
Vit Muller:So I created my first website on Wix and it was like quick and easy.
Vit Muller:I'm like, oh look, I was so excited.
Vit Muller:I've got my website.
Vit Muller:And then, I went to this barbecue thing down the beach and I met this, mate.
Vit Muller:well, we're a good mates now.
Vit Muller:There was a bunch of people like this Czech community we're doing barbecue.
Vit Muller:There's few people that I met there and one of these guys like, yeah, I do.
Vit Muller:I'm in a marketing, I work for an agency.
Vit Muller:We do websites like professional, like a proper websites like
Vit Muller:board prayers or full custom dev.
Vit Muller:And we got along.
Vit Muller:So we, we went for a coffee and he's yeah man, you look, you gotta get on a
Vit Muller:WordPress, you gotta get on a WordPress week's, gotta really ugly code that
Vit Muller:doesn't really work in your favor.
Vit Muller:You gotta clean that up.
Vit Muller:And then what you gotta do is just start writing articles that night.
Vit Muller:I dug into it, I'm like, oh yeah, that makes sense.
Vit Muller:Yeah, providing value etiquette.
Vit Muller:So I started doing that and it was like 2011, end of 2011.
Vit Muller:And I, I'm not kidding.
Vit Muller:I started doing little videos, turn 'em into articles on exercise, on nutrition,
Vit Muller:on lifestyle tips for my clients.
Vit Muller:Within eight months, I got on the first page and Google on the search
Vit Muller:and personal trainer of Sydney Organic
Jeffery Banek:cool.
Jeffery Banek:That's really cool, man,
Vit Muller:yeah.
Vit Muller:And I was like, this shit works.
Vit Muller:And then I, I get clients on the back of it.
Vit Muller:It's this shit works.
Vit Muller:I, I, so for me, the hol like, I'm just following up what you said.
Vit Muller:like for me, I'm big nerd, like I've been since then, like looking at what else
Vit Muller:can I plug in, how else can I optimize And using all these other softwares and
Vit Muller:plugging it in and zapping things in.
Vit Muller:And you know it, the duck tape method.
Vit Muller:Then high level comes along and I'm like, wow.
Vit Muller:I'm like a kid in a candy store.
Vit Muller:And that continues on to this day.
Vit Muller:I never, I never stop being that little kid in a candy store.
Vit Muller:Thank you.
Vit Muller:High level for you guys do every single week there is an improvement.
Vit Muller:Once a year at Level Up you drop this crazy list of amazing new features.
Vit Muller:Yes.
Vit Muller:Let's face it, some of them are skateboard, some of them are ugly,
Vit Muller:some of them are not perfect.
Vit Muller:But you keep on moving forward.
Vit Muller:That's the main thing.
Vit Muller:You keep on moving forward bit by bit.
Vit Muller:There's no other company that moves faster than than high level, and I
Vit Muller:love this company and if you guys are listening, that's the story.
Vit Muller:Now you know my story.
Vit Muller:But kind of turn it a little bit about myself.
Vit Muller:Feel a bit bad.
Vit Muller:I've got, I've got,
Jeffery Banek:brother.
Vit Muller:I've got here.
Vit Muller:Oh, I just had to follow up, because you were talking about that.
Vit Muller:I'm like, oh man, I didn't know you were a trainer.
Vit Muller:I
Jeffery Banek:Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Vit Muller:it been like for you that career?
Vit Muller:I mean, it's a, it can be a bit of a grind.
Vit Muller:Are you doing like
Jeffery Banek:So,
Vit Muller:Like
Jeffery Banek:I was always, well, I started out with, 24 Hour Fitness.
Jeffery Banek:Worked my way up to become the manager of IT for the fitness, and then
Jeffery Banek:actually became general manager of it.
Jeffery Banek:Then I wind up running an LA Fitness up in Oceanside.
Jeffery Banek:Which is down by San Diego in California and doing that.
Jeffery Banek:and then when I was trying to branch off to it, I had been pretty lucky.
Jeffery Banek:back in, was it 2010?
Jeffery Banek:Was it, or 2000 where the Body for Life contest.
Jeffery Banek:Did you ever remember that, that Bill Phillips had the Body for Life contest?
Jeffery Banek:I wanna say it been 2000.
Jeffery Banek:It was probably
Vit Muller:It's my, yeah,
Jeffery Banek:I'm old now, so it was probably 2000.
Jeffery Banek:and they had this book called The Body for Life, where
Jeffery Banek:everybody was trying to do this.
Jeffery Banek:It was sort of like the, the, was it hard 75 that everybody
Jeffery Banek:that challenged it, all of a
Vit Muller:yeah.
Jeffery Banek:it was like that, but more, it wasn't as intense by any
Vit Muller:Wasn't that David Goggins The Heart?
Jeffery Banek:but everybody was doing it like it was everywhere.
Jeffery Banek:So there was this contest, first prize, you got 50 grand, in this deal.
Jeffery Banek:It was like some other stuff.
Jeffery Banek:for the best body transformation.
Jeffery Banek:So it was in 12 weeks who could have the best body transformation.
Jeffery Banek:So one of my clients entered and outta 77,000 people.
Jeffery Banek:He got fifth.
Jeffery Banek:So, we were supposed, he told me if he won, the guy was loaded.
Jeffery Banek:So he's Hey, if we win, we're gonna split the 50 grand.
Jeffery Banek:And I'm like, yeah, 25 grand.
Jeffery Banek:I'm like, heck yeah.
Jeffery Banek:And the problem was he owned his own company.
Jeffery Banek:He was a plastics recycling company and every dime time it was leg.
Jeffery Banek:David, he didn't show up, man.
Jeffery Banek:He'd be like, oh, I got a meeting.
Jeffery Banek:I got this.
Jeffery Banek:So he was shredded.
Jeffery Banek:He looked amazing.
Jeffery Banek:And then you get down and he's got little tiny chicken legs
Jeffery Banek:compared to the rest of his body.
Jeffery Banek:And he still got fifth outta 77, but he could have won.
Jeffery Banek:And fifth place was a tote bag.
Jeffery Banek:It was literally a gym bag that said body for life on it.
Jeffery Banek:I had that thing forever.
Jeffery Banek:It just recently fell apart finally.
Jeffery Banek:But, I did pretty decently.
Jeffery Banek:I wouldn't say that I went astronomical.
Jeffery Banek:Like my best years as a trainer were making like 50 grand, 60 grand.
Jeffery Banek:It wasn't like tons, it was more like in the thirties to forties when
Jeffery Banek:I found, marketing and everything.
Jeffery Banek:The year before, I maybe made like 30 grand, and then my first
Jeffery Banek:year in marketing we did 800,000.
Jeffery Banek:So it was quite a change, man.
Jeffery Banek:It was one of the weirdest transitions ever.
Jeffery Banek:I lost so much money.
Jeffery Banek:I made so many mistakes.
Jeffery Banek:Hired friends that cost me 80 grand here, lost a hundred grand here, trying
Jeffery Banek:to figure stuff because dude, I went from literally a personal trainer who
Jeffery Banek:loved funnels and loved marketing to a master funnel guy overnight, practically.
Jeffery Banek:You know what I mean?
Jeffery Banek:Sure.
Jeffery Banek:There was all the six months of training, studying, all that
Jeffery Banek:stuff, learning it, and years of studying marketing up to that point.
Jeffery Banek:And I was always the number one salesperson.
Jeffery Banek:But literally, I went from somebody that, we did it 30 grand to our, my
Jeffery Banek:first agency year we did 800,000.
Jeffery Banek:And we made I think it was like 12 million for our clients.
Jeffery Banek:And I'm just sitting there going, huh?
Jeffery Banek:$800,000. yeah.
Jeffery Banek:So I just spend a lot of this, right?
Jeffery Banek:That's what I'm supposed to do right now, is just spend a lot of it.
Jeffery Banek:And, the, unfortunately, I, I lo I spent a lot of money, and, I lost in
Jeffery Banek:crypto, I lost half a million in crypto.
Jeffery Banek:So when, when the NFT and Crypto market hit right before COVID area in that
Jeffery Banek:COVID time area, oh, I, I went heavy in that and lost like half a million.
Jeffery Banek:I mean, I'm fine now, but entrepreneurship, you're gonna find
Jeffery Banek:anyone you talk to that's been in the game for a while, they're gonna have
Jeffery Banek:a point in their life where they, they went up and they, lost it all.
Jeffery Banek:It doesn't matter if you're Alex from osi, I've done it.
Jeffery Banek:It doesn't matter who you talk to.
Jeffery Banek:If you are playing the game because you go so hard out in the entrepreneur life
Jeffery Banek:that there's a good chance, please, I hope to God it never happens to you
Jeffery Banek:because it's the worst thing ever, but you will lose it all to some degree.
Jeffery Banek:because it sometimes it comes so easy too.
Jeffery Banek:I mean, that was the thing for me.
Jeffery Banek:Sure I'd worked my ass off and did all this, but once it happens, it
Jeffery Banek:feels sort of easy for it to happen.
Jeffery Banek:You know what I mean?
Jeffery Banek:and then you did it again and again and again and then so, but yeah,
Vit Muller:hopefully you learn from, hopefully you learn from
Vit Muller:each one of those mistakes.
Vit Muller:Man, like back in 2016, I had it all.
Vit Muller:I negotiate this exclusivity agreement, this gym, I was
Vit Muller:like, I wanna have trainers.
Vit Muller:So like exclusivity agreement, I had personal training,
Vit Muller:exclusivity, I had trainers.
Vit Muller:I was a qualified massage therapist.
Vit Muller:So then I had I'm gonna bundle it out, I'm gonna do massage therapy,
Vit Muller:and then I'm gonna train people and open up their ranges of motion.
Vit Muller:everybody's working behind the desk, they can't get their arm
Vit Muller:properly and d dig in under the subscap, open that up a little bit.
Vit Muller:Now let's train.
Vit Muller:I had his whole model, I had trainers and then six months later, this guy goes,
Vit Muller:this pool is costing us a lot of money.
Vit Muller:We wanna get to the pool.
Vit Muller:And it was like a, there was like a 50 meter pool.
Vit Muller:I think now 20 meter pool, like one of the small ones, but there's still big chunk
Vit Muller:of floor space and what do we wanna do?
Vit Muller:I'm like, oh, at, at that point I've already helped set up
Vit Muller:two gyms, so I'm like, well.
Vit Muller:CrossFit is a big thing.
Vit Muller:F 45 is a big thing.
Vit Muller:Let me help you design something and let me like grab a spot from that little
Vit Muller:bit so I can do, I can do some private, 'cause I was a PT at then, at, at that
Vit Muller:point, I no longer run that bootcamp business, but I knew PT is a grind
Vit Muller:and tell you what, like one of my most hateful days has always been Sundays.
Vit Muller:So you've got clients, they're paying $110 an hour, and so you can only do that
Vit Muller:many clients that many hours in a week.
Vit Muller:And let's face it, it's only that cream sports are in the morning before
Vit Muller:work, maybe lunchtime if you're lucky.
Vit Muller:And then after work, that's it.
Vit Muller:So as a trainer, you're, you're at the team all day.
Vit Muller:So I always knew I gotta do something more scalable.
Vit Muller:It's like this guy comes along, I'm like, the CEO comes along and
Vit Muller:I'm like, yeah, cool, let's do it.
Vit Muller:Look, I I just really want a spot in that middle bit.
Vit Muller:And, and then we kept going around.
Vit Muller:He's yeah, you're gonna pay me this much rent.
Vit Muller:I'm like, I can't really.
Vit Muller:That's way too much.
Vit Muller:And then he's like, why don't you take the take over the place?
Vit Muller:So we did a management agreement.
Vit Muller:I took over the whole place.
Vit Muller:All of their employees became my employees overnight.
Vit Muller:They paid me chunk of, chunk of money for, for the, for the wages.
Vit Muller:And then the deal was, I'm gonna make money on the membership.
Vit Muller:When I, when I grow the membership, man, I had it all.
Vit Muller:I had like suddenly had employees, I had trainers, I had, up in my
Vit Muller:head, the ego boosted everything.
Vit Muller:I felt like I'm making it, but I wasn't really making much money
Vit Muller:because the deal was a, I didn't nego, I didn't get the numbers right.
Vit Muller:So I still had to wake up and train my clients just to make my own money.
Vit Muller:But man, if, if I, if obviously that went belly up and that's a story for another
Vit Muller:day, but definitely a learning curve.
Vit Muller:But I mean, just again, like you've got these, you've got these opportunities,
Vit Muller:you got these ups, you got these highs, and then you got these terrible lows
Vit Muller:that like, you dab yourself, confidence goes down a drain, you feel like loser.
Vit Muller:You feel like, oh man, and then you just gotta crawl yourself out of that hole.
Vit Muller:And go at it again.
Jeffery Banek:Yeah, dude.
Jeffery Banek:Yeah.
Jeffery Banek:It's, it happens.
Jeffery Banek:Just anybody that knows, like that's just the entrepreneur journey.
Jeffery Banek:Unfortunately.
Jeffery Banek:It's, it's, up, it's.
Jeffery Banek:High highs and low lows.
Jeffery Banek:Sometimes I wish I could be on it.
Jeffery Banek:I could tell you it's always high highs, but that's just not the truth of it.
Jeffery Banek:And I want to be always honest with everyone.
Jeffery Banek:There's, there's ups and downs with it.
Jeffery Banek:you can do your best to try and put in stop gaps and things so that
Jeffery Banek:none of those bad stuff happens.
Jeffery Banek:But sometimes people change the gyms.
Jeffery Banek:Sometimes earthquakes happen.
Jeffery Banek:You never know, so just part of life.
Jeffery Banek:But the best thing is, is realizing that you always, as long as you're
Jeffery Banek:alive, you got another chance, man.
Jeffery Banek:You can always change it.
Jeffery Banek:You can always change it.
Jeffery Banek:You can be something else.
Jeffery Banek:You can change it.
Jeffery Banek:Nothing.
Jeffery Banek:Especially in America.
Jeffery Banek:Like I know you're, you're in Australia, right?
Jeffery Banek:Like you're in Australia.
Jeffery Banek:I really believe America's far from perfect in many different ways,
Jeffery Banek:but it's one of the few countries.
Jeffery Banek:I'm not really versed in Australia, but I do know that in America, like
Jeffery Banek:you can be, anybody can come up and do be become something great.
Jeffery Banek:if you're in Africa and you're a goat farmer, you're gonna
Jeffery Banek:die a goat farmer probably.
Jeffery Banek:There's not a lot of opportunity, you know what I mean?
Jeffery Banek:Like in other countries.
Jeffery Banek:So I just thank God every day that, I am in America.
Jeffery Banek:So I do love this country.
Jeffery Banek:I'm happy for it.
Jeffery Banek:And it is definitely the land of opportunity, man.
Jeffery Banek:I think this is one of the few countries where if you're willing to work, man,
Jeffery Banek:you can come up, you can do something, you can become something great.
Jeffery Banek:So anyway,
Vit Muller:lazy and all, and you guys have big populations, so
Vit Muller:there's big market as well, and
Jeffery Banek:money in different spots.
Jeffery Banek:There's, there's so much money out in the world, you just
Jeffery Banek:gotta be able to go after it.
Jeffery Banek:And if you can provide value, that's the biggest, that's the
Jeffery Banek:biggest problem with an, young, the younger, I'm like, oh, I'm old.
Jeffery Banek:The younger generation and shit.
Jeffery Banek:But seriously, the problem with a lot of kids now is they're not learning skills.
Jeffery Banek:They're not learning anything.
Jeffery Banek:That's a tangible skill where they can help improve the world
Jeffery Banek:in any way and make an impact.
Jeffery Banek:You know what I mean?
Jeffery Banek:and that's one of the things that, I really feel that we need to start doing
Jeffery Banek:again, is start learning skills so that we can make an impact in the world.
Jeffery Banek:You have so many people that are going to college and they're learning about
Jeffery Banek:this study or that sum, and you're like, what job are you gonna get?
Jeffery Banek:And they're like, I don't know.
Jeffery Banek:But yeah, I think that there's a lot of opportunity in this world and I think that
Jeffery Banek:anybody can be able to do it, especially with marketing, with high level.
Jeffery Banek:I mean, you go out, you get a SaaS going, there's so many opportunities.
Jeffery Banek:I mean, it's crazy.
Jeffery Banek:So anyway.
Vit Muller:Yeah.
Vit Muller:So let's close the loop of, I think we turn it into a bit of a motivational
Vit Muller:session, which is always good.
Vit Muller:You never know where these, where, where this interview is gonna go.
Vit Muller:Right.
Jeffery Banek:Yeah, I like to motivate people, man.
Jeffery Banek:I've
Vit Muller:me too.
Vit Muller:Yeah.
Vit Muller:I like it.
Jeffery Banek:been ups and downs and I think about, dude, I mean, to be
Jeffery Banek:honest with you, one time it got so bad that literally, I, I mean I don't
Jeffery Banek:talk about this often, but dude, I was gonna, I was gonna kill myself, bro.
Jeffery Banek:Like seriously, when I lost it all and everything, I didn't see it into the
Jeffery Banek:light and thank god Russell was there.
Jeffery Banek:I literally messaged Russell Brunson like at 11.
Jeffery Banek:He was the last ditch dude.
Jeffery Banek:I was messaging him at 1130 at night and I was like, dude, Russell, I'm lost.
Jeffery Banek:I don't know what to do.
Jeffery Banek:And he messaged me and he was like, people still love the funnel Doc.
Jeffery Banek:Your brand's still good.
Jeffery Banek:He's literally said, well, and this is way before anything to do with Trump.
Jeffery Banek:He is we'll make Funnel Doc great again.
Jeffery Banek:And I thinking back about it, it's what makes a giggle, but I mean
Jeffery Banek:it, like he, he like saved my life.
Jeffery Banek:Like it's, it does have a lot.
Jeffery Banek:So I always try and motivate people.
Jeffery Banek:I always try and tell people that the truth, that there's ups and downs,
Jeffery Banek:but this is your opportunity, man.
Jeffery Banek:And with AI right now, there's so much potential.
Jeffery Banek:Nobody out there is a massive expert.
Jeffery Banek:If you go all in right now, you can become someone that leads the charge out there.
Jeffery Banek:I mean, I'm 51 years old, I'm not even supposed to know
Jeffery Banek:how to turn on my computer.
Jeffery Banek:And here I am, an AI expert in building massive AI systems.
Jeffery Banek:So, realize that you can do anything out there as long as
Jeffery Banek:you're willing to put in the work.
Jeffery Banek:The difference is people make fun of people like Alex Hormozi
Jeffery Banek:because he's so extreme.
Jeffery Banek:Well, I hate to tell you this.
Jeffery Banek:If you want extreme results, you gotta do extreme things, man.
Jeffery Banek:Common results are for common people, So, anyway, sorry.
Jeffery Banek:I get a little more motivational.
Jeffery Banek:I start, I like it, man.
Jeffery Banek:I like, I like, I want to change, man.
Jeffery Banek:I, I believe that, we have the power that AI and just being able
Jeffery Banek:to get online like this and be able to touch people that you use, not.
Jeffery Banek:This is the power of God that God given us to be able to help other people, man.
Jeffery Banek:You know what I mean?
Jeffery Banek:And you're an amazing spot that you get to have entrepreneurs on here
Jeffery Banek:and be able to share their story and impact people, like I imagine ways
Jeffery Banek:you don't even imagine sometimes.
Jeffery Banek:So I mean, hey, I, if we can motivate some people, we can get them to be successful,
Jeffery Banek:we can cause some impact in the world.
Jeffery Banek:Please.
Jeffery Banek:Let's do it, man.
Vit Muller:Yeah, man.
Jeffery Banek:sorry, I'm getting, I'm a
Vit Muller:No, it's, no, it's, I, no, I can relate like that.
Vit Muller:yeah.
Vit Muller:Yeah.
Vit Muller:When, when shit hits the fan, when, when you're down in your knees and
Vit Muller:it's you gotta crawl back up, it's a, that's one thing I didn't, I didn't
Vit Muller:mention, but yeah, it is a dark spot, so,
Jeffery Banek:in shit, man, it's hard to see anything but
Jeffery Banek:more shit around you sometimes.
Jeffery Banek:And that's what I needed from that phone call from Russell or that text
Jeffery Banek:message was a phone call as a text.
Jeffery Banek:You just don't always need somebody to believe in you, just a little
Jeffery Banek:more than you believe in yourself.
Jeffery Banek:You know what I mean?
Jeffery Banek:Because it's, something's hard to believe.
Jeffery Banek:We have greatness within, but we all do.
Jeffery Banek:We all have greatness inside us.
Jeffery Banek:There's nobody, whether you're Martin Luther King or Joe Blow
Jeffery Banek:down the street or whatever it is, nobody's better than anyone.
Jeffery Banek:Everyone has greatness in them.
Jeffery Banek:You know what I mean?
Jeffery Banek:So I just, I, it's, yeah.
Vit Muller:So I, I just wanted to say, it's like if, if there's anybody out there
Vit Muller:right now listening and you're in that sport, just know there are people around
Vit Muller:you that you can reach out for help.
Vit Muller:It's a, it's
Jeffery Banek:dude, you can message me if anybody straight up message me the
Jeffery Banek:funnel doc Jeffery Banek on Facebook.

Jeffery Banek:would love to be there for you.
Jeffery Banek:So.
Vit Muller:Yeah.
Vit Muller:Same.
Vit Muller:Yeah.
Vit Muller:And that's been, people been being here for me.
Vit Muller:Shout out to Johann.
Vit Muller:Shout out to, Jarryd.
Vit Muller:Yeah.
Vit Muller:It's, we all go through shit.
Vit Muller:It's, it's a part of being human, this entrepreneurial journey.
Vit Muller:And we're all like, I, I mean a lot of us are ADHD and we love this stuff and we go
Vit Muller:into it so intensely and we work so crazy.
Vit Muller:Long hours.
Vit Muller:Then we.
Vit Muller:Then also sometimes burn out and then shit hits the fan and it's a
Vit Muller:trickle down and before you know it, then you start it from scratch again.
Vit Muller:But yeah, there are always gonna, people reach out
Jeffery Banek:with that Vit.
Jeffery Banek:Here's a secret with that.
Jeffery Banek:Do you know Akbar Sheik?
Jeffery Banek:He's been on here, hasn't he?
Jeffery Banek:You know Akbar, right?
Vit Muller:I, I haven't I haven't had pneumonia yet.
Jeffery Banek:So he was, one of my original mentors back in the
Jeffery Banek:day, way back in the day actually.
Jeffery Banek:and I'll never forget something he told me.
Jeffery Banek:That is so true and holds true to this day.
Jeffery Banek:People don't want to hear about wounds.
Jeffery Banek:They want to hear about scars.
Jeffery Banek:They want to hear once that wounds, like no one wants to
Jeffery Banek:hear from you when you're in it.
Jeffery Banek:nobody wants to hear that pity me type stuff because when you're in
Jeffery Banek:it, they want to hear now, like when we made it through it and that there
Jeffery Banek:is that light on the other side.
Jeffery Banek:So just something for anyone out there, don't share wounds.
Jeffery Banek:Only share scars because wounds are not ready to be shared with the world.
Jeffery Banek:It's just little something advice for people.
Jeffery Banek:Even though we've been a little bit, intimate and sensitive and sharing
Jeffery Banek:personal stuff right now, these are scars that we've healed from and we're able
Jeffery Banek:to share it with the world and go on.
Jeffery Banek:if you're in the middle of it, get help from someone.
Jeffery Banek:But don't try and go out and be on TikTok and share it to the
Vit Muller:Oh, I see what you, yeah.
Vit Muller:I was like trying to
Jeffery Banek:Yeah, don't be the, yeah, don't, don't think that social

Jeffery Banek:It even does in the morning when you log in and talk to it, it'll send you
Jeffery Banek:a morning report of all your KPIs.
Jeffery Banek:It recommend, it makes recommendations of it, knows the system, looks at it.
Jeffery Banek:There's two different agents.
Jeffery Banek:It's got an optimization agent and then it's got a there's optimization
Jeffery Banek:and then there's analytics agent.
Jeffery Banek:So the analytics brings all the analytics in from everywhere, puts it all down,
Jeffery Banek:then feeds it to the optimization agent, and then looks at everything it's
Jeffery Banek:doing and then makes changes on the ai.
Jeffery Banek:So it's a whole system that runs your entire, whole high level
Jeffery Banek:business all through voice or chat.
Jeffery Banek:So
Vit Muller:I feel like this deserves another episode.
Vit Muller:I'm interested in that.
Vit Muller:That
Jeffery Banek:Oh dude, it's sick.
Jeffery Banek:Like it does UGC where you can literally, if you drop a picture in and then show
Jeffery Banek:it with a product, it will spit out a full ad for you and then you can
Jeffery Banek:be like, oh, upload that to a blog.
Jeffery Banek:Oh, and also I wanna send an email, make sure you attach it to that, tell
Jeffery Banek:it, Hey, check this out because I really think this is something cool.
Jeffery Banek:Oh, and also what is on my calendar for Monday?
Jeffery Banek:And it just,
Vit Muller:it talks back to you
Jeffery Banek:it all.
Vit Muller:how long
Jeffery Banek:it's, it's literally, I call it an AI VA. It's like the literal,
Jeffery Banek:like next level of a virtual assistant.
Jeffery Banek:Not only does it able to know everything about your high level
Jeffery Banek:system, but it's able, because of all the open API access that you can do
Jeffery Banek:everything in your system for you.
Jeffery Banek:You can literally be like, oh, and then we've got like agents
Jeffery Banek:hooked up to perplexity and stuff.
Jeffery Banek:So if you wanted to write a blog, you'd be like, Hey, research a blog
Jeffery Banek:on X, Y, or Z, and it'll go do it.
Jeffery Banek:Then it gives you rough draft of it, and then it'll upload it.
Jeffery Banek:It does everything for you.
Jeffery Banek:It's
Vit Muller:Ah, that's brilliant.
Vit Muller:Yeah, I feel like I'm a little behind on that front.
Vit Muller:So that's, that's something to nerd out on, that's for sure.
Jeffery Banek:Yeah, dude, it's super cool, man.
Jeffery Banek:It's super cool.
Vit Muller:if you could give one piece of advice to a new high level
Vit Muller:user to make their life easier when adopting high level, what would that be?
Jeffery Banek:Eat it like an elephant.
Jeffery Banek:One chunk at a time.
Jeffery Banek:You gotta figure out, first of all, don't look at all the cool bells and whistles.
Jeffery Banek:MVP people, minimum viable product.
Jeffery Banek:What is the smallest amount of stuff you can use to get the maximum impact done?
Jeffery Banek:And then bring in one thing at a time as you learn the base.
Jeffery Banek:Learn the base, learn calendars, learn workflows, learn how it
Jeffery Banek:engages with it, depending on what your niche is, of course, but.
Jeffery Banek:Focus on a couple things, like two or three max at the beginning, like some of
Jeffery Banek:the systems that work together do not.
Jeffery Banek:I repeat, do not try and learn it all at one time.
Jeffery Banek:You'll be like this and you'll just come scream.
Jeffery Banek:You'll be waking up in the middle of the night being like
Jeffery Banek:high level, what's going on?
Jeffery Banek:because it's so much.
Jeffery Banek:So take a system, take a chunk of it, learn a chunk, learn another
Jeffery Banek:chunk, learn another chunk.
Jeffery Banek:Do not learn all the chunks at once because you'll become a jack
Jeffery Banek:of all trades, master or none, and you'll really, it leads to massive,
Jeffery Banek:massive overwhelm because let's be honest, high level can do it all.
Jeffery Banek:I mean, if you're in e-comm, it can do massive e-comm, it can
Jeffery Banek:do shipping, it can do all this.
Jeffery Banek:If you're in the funnels, it can do all this.
Jeffery Banek:If you're into ai, it can do all this.
Jeffery Banek:Pick your lane, figure out what are the most impactful actions and features that
Jeffery Banek:will work in whatever your business, your niche, or however you're using it will be.
Jeffery Banek:Master those, then add some more to it.
Vit Muller:And head over to some, a horse racing and get some blinders.
Vit Muller:high level.
Vit Muller:Should probably supply those to you when you sign up, Hey, he's some blinders.
Jeffery Banek:it's hard.
Jeffery Banek:It's because they got so much cool stuff and every time you see something, it's
Jeffery Banek:a shiny object where you're like, I'm gonna add this in, I'm gonna add this in.
Jeffery Banek:And you do.
Jeffery Banek:You can add it all, but add it all one piece at a time, because
Jeffery Banek:if you try, it will get, your systems will get overwhelmed.
Jeffery Banek:I mean, I've been doing this for, I've been with high level like four,
Jeffery Banek:four years now and been in the digital marketing game for six, going on 10 total.
Jeffery Banek:it takes a while.
Jeffery Banek:I'm very blessed to have a big skill palette, but it's taken me 10 years
Jeffery Banek:to develop all those skills from AI to funnels, to copy, to marketing, to sales.
Jeffery Banek:most of you're starting out new minimum viable product.
Jeffery Banek:It telling you, you're gonna get the farthest by figuring out what is the
Jeffery Banek:pain now if you're using it for yourself.
Jeffery Banek:Look at your own business.
Jeffery Banek:What are the pain points in my business?
Jeffery Banek:How can I use high level to fix those?
Jeffery Banek:If you're looking for clients, do the same thing, but you're gonna find a lot of
Jeffery Banek:those are gonna be the same pain points.
Jeffery Banek:You know what I mean?
Jeffery Banek:Especially on the basic beginning level,
Vit Muller:Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
Vit Muller:Now, the world is not all sunshine and rainbows.
Vit Muller:There is all the epic stuff, but there's also, we have experiences.
Vit Muller:High level is a skateboard mo model and the way they evolve
Vit Muller:the company, it's based on the upwards, which is a great model.
Vit Muller:I mean, I don't know how else you could do it.
Vit Muller:It's such a scale, but it also means it's heavily reliant on our user feedback.
Vit Muller:And so I know the guys are all like, the developers, very much appreciate feedback.
Vit Muller:And so to help the developers, to help the community, to help everybody,
Vit Muller:I've got this segment called The Beef.
Vit Muller:I just went to, put a, put a bit of a thing on it.
Vit Muller:So it's called the Beef.
Vit Muller:It's it's what we discuss constructive feedback on high
Vit Muller:level to improve the platform and get up votes on the ideas board.
Jeffery Banek:cool.
Vit Muller:Are there any challenges or frustrations you face of high level
Vit Muller:recently that you'd like to talk about?
Vit Muller:And if you have it as an ideas submitted, even better, we
Vit Muller:can add a link in the show.
Jeffery Banek:well, I'm very blessed.
Jeffery Banek:I'm on all the beta stuff for ai, so I get all, I've, I'm in the slack
Jeffery Banek:with all the devs and everything, so I get all first level access.
Jeffery Banek:So there's a lot of stuff I've seen that it needs help and, and
Jeffery Banek:more less than skateboarding stuff.
Jeffery Banek:So there's a lot in there.
Jeffery Banek:yeah, I don't know.
Jeffery Banek:The newest thing that annoys me a little bit is the funnel builder.
Jeffery Banek:Honestly, it's too sensitive now and if you go to highlight something
Jeffery Banek:or go to move it, it moves it and creates a whole new space or area.
Jeffery Banek:I know this is a whole, this is really for me, but as a funnel builder,
Vit Muller:they wanted to
Jeffery Banek:you done that where you went to highlight something and it moved
Jeffery Banek:it and creates a whole new area and you're just like, dude, I didn't want that moved,
Vit Muller:yeah.
Vit Muller:If you're moving, if you're moving an element, it automatically
Vit Muller:creates a new, new role for you.
Vit Muller:Which, which in a way feels intuitive, but it's, it's, yeah.
Jeffery Banek:think it's because I'm spoiled and used to the old way.
Jeffery Banek:And once I get used to the new way, I'll be like, oh, this is super cool.
Jeffery Banek:But right now, that's annoyed me.
Jeffery Banek:'cause there's been several times they go to highlight something and it grabs
Jeffery Banek:it and moves it and makes a whole thing.
Jeffery Banek:And I'm just like, that's annoying.
Jeffery Banek:But I don't know.
Jeffery Banek:I, their conversation, AI needs to get better.
Jeffery Banek:Their voice AI's phenomenal.
Jeffery Banek:Their conversation, AI is okay.
Jeffery Banek:You know what I mean?
Jeffery Banek:Realistically, I'd say their conversation AI model needs a
Jeffery Banek:little bit of help with that.
Jeffery Banek:but not really.
Jeffery Banek:I mean, it's, it's, it's, I'd, it's hard.
Jeffery Banek:There's, there's nothing that stands out massively for me right now,
Vit Muller:Do you submit anything on the a ideas board?
Jeffery Banek:not really just because, I don't know.
Jeffery Banek:I've not had, I don't know why I haven't really thought of ideas to put in
Jeffery Banek:there, but I do love the Ideas board.
Jeffery Banek:I think it's one of the smartest things because it shows where the
Jeffery Banek:want is with the people so that you know what people want and need.
Jeffery Banek:I think that's amazing.
Jeffery Banek:but no, I haven't submitted any, I don't think I've ever
Jeffery Banek:submitted anything in there, but
Vit Muller:Oh, that's cool.
Jeffery Banek:stuff and, and, go through it, but
Vit Muller:Yes, that you do, use it as an upwards.
Vit Muller:Awesome.
Vit Muller:Well, look guys, if you're listening, if, if you've got something, if
Vit Muller:you've got the beef of high level, then I've got an opportunity for you.
Vit Muller:If you head over to highlevelexperience.com/thebeef,
Vit Muller:I've got a simple form.
Vit Muller:Just record a short video so we can actually add it to the episode.
Vit Muller:Mention your name, mention the feature, mention the frustration, be constructive.
Vit Muller:Don't be negative, be constructive, and include the link to the ideas book.
Vit Muller:And we'll feature, we'll, we'll literally, I'll insert it right into this segment,
Vit Muller:so that everybody else can learn.
Vit Muller:And if they agree with you, then we can get you more up uploads because
Vit Muller:one of the things with up votes, you can't really promote it through
Vit Muller:the high level community group.
Vit Muller:They will shut it down.
Vit Muller:So posts are not allowed.
Vit Muller:So the only way it works is people going to the ideas board, but you
Vit Muller:know, not, and not everybody goes.
Vit Muller:So this is why I've got this segment.
Vit Muller:So if you guys have something like that, head over to
Vit Muller:highlevelexperience.com/thebeef and we'll feature it on the next episode.
Vit Muller:Jeff, we're almost there.
Vit Muller:I've got, couple more things real quick.
Vit Muller:we've got this another segment three under three, right?
Vit Muller:So three short stories under one minute each.
Vit Muller:I just want one story from you.
Vit Muller:how did the guy from the, the hot the hot pepper sauce camera here, camera here,
Jeffery Banek:Yeah.
Jeffery Banek:Oh, I love it, dude.
Jeffery Banek:I love that show, dude.
Jeffery Banek:The hot wing show.
Jeffery Banek:Yeah,
Vit Muller:Yeah, it's good.
Vit Muller:It's a good one.
Vit Muller:So look, it's the idea.
Vit Muller:It's inspiring.
Vit Muller:I think we've already done that fairly well, over the last an hour and bit.
Vit Muller:but inspiring others and showing them what's possible if you're an agency
Vit Muller:on the listening out, if you're a business owner listening out, I wanna
Vit Muller:inspire, I wanna motivate you about how high level can help your business.
Vit Muller:Not just help your business, but what it can do for your lifestyle.
Vit Muller:And this is what these three under three stories are about.
Vit Muller:So Jeff, do you have a story of a client you helped and what was the
Vit Muller:impact as a result of that help?
Jeffery Banek:I mean, yeah, I mean, I've had multiple clients that I've
Jeffery Banek:helped to hit millions of dollars that have done great things with that money.
Jeffery Banek:I mean, it's, I believe that we're given these positions to
Jeffery Banek:not make money, but to make money so that we can do things with it.
Jeffery Banek:So yeah, we've had multiple people that we've helped out.
Jeffery Banek:Matter of fact, one of the things that I'm in the process doing myself.
Jeffery Banek:Is, I want to start planning a new, well in a third world country every month.
Jeffery Banek:Actually, I've already checked it out.
Jeffery Banek:It's gonna be about six to 10 grand to do each well.
Jeffery Banek:But I would love to be able to just go out there because people don't
Jeffery Banek:realize, like we've got it in the States and in America so much better.
Jeffery Banek:There's other countries they literally spend all day just going to get
Jeffery Banek:water from a well so that they can, they can have a normal life.
Jeffery Banek:And if I could be like, help them out and make, take that burden off of them,
Jeffery Banek:I'm definitely willing to do that.
Jeffery Banek:So that's something I'm in personally looking into doing is starting,
Jeffery Banek:in 2026, starting in January.
Jeffery Banek:doing a well a month.
Jeffery Banek:Actually, I'd like to do one every month.
Jeffery Banek:So
Vit Muller:Would you also travel there just to like
Jeffery Banek:I, I would like to, that'd be another thing.
Jeffery Banek:I'd love to travel.
Jeffery Banek:Maybe the first or couple of 'em be there when they're made and stuff.
Jeffery Banek:I, I try and not, it's hard because I get such a good vibe off of doing stuff like
Jeffery Banek:that, but I try and not make it, About me.
Jeffery Banek:You know what I mean?
Jeffery Banek:you know what I'm saying?
Jeffery Banek:it's hard though because it's like you're doing it and stuff and it's your
Jeffery Banek:money and you're raising awareness.
Jeffery Banek:And I think it's great because I, I want to wait, raise awareness
Jeffery Banek:and, and people to see that there's other countries that need help.
Jeffery Banek:but it's hard sometimes because you always wanna remain humble about that.
Jeffery Banek:You know what I mean?
Jeffery Banek:That it's about helping them more.
Jeffery Banek:It's about you.
Jeffery Banek:But I would definitely go, man, I would a hundred percent love to not only
Jeffery Banek:go to Africa, but be able to see the village or the place that I'm impacting
Jeffery Banek:and knowing the meeting the people that I'm actually changing their lives.
Jeffery Banek:I think that would be the coolest thing ever, man.
Jeffery Banek:The coolest thing ever.
Vit Muller:Yeah, absolutely.
Vit Muller:no, that's, I like that.
Vit Muller:now for you guys listening, if you have a cool story, again, I wanna
Vit Muller:give you an opportunity to shout it out and help inspire others.
Vit Muller:So if you've got an agency, just your name, your agency name,
Vit Muller:who you help, and what's the impact, nice and short and minute.
Vit Muller:Head over to highlevelexperience.com/yourstory.
Vit Muller:You get to submit one, you get a plaque, I'll enter and I'll
Vit Muller:enter it in the next episode.
Vit Muller:That'll feature you.
Vit Muller:So would much appreciate if you guys could do that.
Vit Muller:If you got a story.
Jeffery Banek:one though.
Jeffery Banek:I did have one guy named Bud Heaton that I'll never forget that reached
Jeffery Banek:out to me and he said that he'd been following me for six years, seven years,
Jeffery Banek:and that he'd been applying everything that I taught free throughout the
Jeffery Banek:year, as videos and stuff, and that he had made his company $32 million.
Vit Muller:Oh.
Jeffery Banek:32, like literally came up to me at ClickFunnels one year.
Jeffery Banek:It was now, it's been like four years ago.
Jeffery Banek:And he is dude, I've never bought any of your courses.
Jeffery Banek:I've never bought anything.
Jeffery Banek:All I've done is followed all your videos and done what you taught.
Jeffery Banek:And I wanted to let you know that I've made my company over $32 million
Jeffery Banek:because of everything you taught.
Jeffery Banek:And I was just like, wow.
Jeffery Banek:So yeah, Bud Heaton, I, he knows who it is, but yeah, that was an amazing story
Jeffery Banek:to hear somebody that had never even bought anything from me but had been
Jeffery Banek:able to, leverage the things I taught through YouTube and stuff, and been able
Jeffery Banek:to make $32 million for his company.
Vit Muller:That's, that's epic.
Vit Muller:Yeah.
Vit Muller:Shout out to  Bud Heaton.
Vit Muller:And it's, I mean, it's not about the money, it's what the money represents
Vit Muller:for the people that are in that company.
Vit Muller:Wages, they are probably employed a lot more people and all that good stuff.
Vit Muller:So yeah.
Vit Muller:That's epic.
Vit Muller:Awesome.
Vit Muller:alright, well let's wrap it up, Jeff.
Vit Muller:I appreciate you being on.
Vit Muller:If you've wanted to share anything, a last piece of advice, now would be a good time.
Jeffery Banek:Yeah, just, you're gonna fail while you're out there.
Jeffery Banek:Don't worry about it.
Jeffery Banek:Everybody does it.
Jeffery Banek:Keep pushing forward.
Jeffery Banek:That's the thing, man.
Jeffery Banek:It's a difference between the people that fail and don't get up, versus the
Jeffery Banek:people that turn it into a lesson they learn from and to move forward, because
Jeffery Banek:that's when real success happens.
Jeffery Banek:There you go.
Vit Muller:I love it.
