      A proposed interesting question to close out the podcast would be ask would be to ask your incredible Guests the meaning of life. Getting there perception on this Open question would be interesting and insightful.

    This was the best interview I think I’ve ever listened to! I love how she looks at her customers as ‘people who sponsor you’. Such a great way to look at it. And embracing all the ideas so your funnel doesn’t dry up! So many good things from this. Thank you so much 🥰

    I now tune in every Monday morning to listen to the latest podcasts and this is by far the most best one for me! The sheer positivism and belief in oneself that Marcia exudes is fantastic. I feel inspired and motivated and will probably watch thia again. Thank you Steven for sharing this with us 🙏🙏🙏

      I agree! One of my top 5 favs so far. I ran out and got the book Originals by Adam Grant, based on this conversation..fascinating topic. As Steven said, she is a light and we need more leaders like this in the world!

    What a great interview! She brings sunshine into the room. That client satisfaction and little things in order to make sure the client knows we are thinking about them, it is so true. I only know about Soap and Glory and always thought it was so cool and luxurious, but not overly priced. Lovely to know she was behind it. This was a hidden gem guest. And also she looks fantastic!

    Yesterday I was crying after I knew u in Tom Biliyeu s youtube channel and scared my frustration to my future husband: why anybody address the leading questions to someone like Steven? I wish to have access for real at someone that got rich from nothing as a true friend...why? Cause I feel to transform also and lead by example and let a wonderful inspiring heritage to my kids...and today I searched to find out Steven alone so here I am, 10x God...I'm full of extraordinary feelings of love and appreciation for u, Steven and for Marcia...u emerged into my soul bringing so much consistency in being who u r ❤ God bless you and yr mom, Steven and God bless you and yr family, Marcia, thank u so much for yr willingness to share yr self to me, I'm literally thrilled to know u, guys 💕

    Amazing, i watch your podcasts in my room with the lights turned off and no distraction.
    Then i stare off into the distance.
    i have to say that you are an excellent interviewer, disecting the main points of interest without pushing someone and coming out as too much, also letting the unimportant parts slide and when you have found gold, use words like "interesting"
    That really makes them sing like a bird.
    Maybe it's just me but I think you have a talent of filtering out useless information from the useful information.

    Quotes from this podcast + two must read behavioural economics boosk
    "Everyone has an interesting story, but the editor is going to write for those that they like, and they are probably going to get a bit further"
    "The basics of sales is to listen to your customer and they will tell you what they want" (I can add that is applicable in all life scenarios)
    The two behaviour economics theories that you should read (finished both in university):
    Misbehaving: The Making of Behavioral Economics by Richard Thaler
    Nudge by Richard Thaler

    @mandeepbharaj4124 Před 9 měsíci

    This is a great interview but not for the right reasons for me. I am not sure how true it is. I am not convinced someone in NY with no money could suddenly afford a gym membership in a gym which attracts Calebs - perhaps people have different ideas of what no money is. Beauty Pie was fantastic 2 years ago but the way customers have been treated over the past 18 months goes against everything which has been said, hence so many people have left, including me. Perhaps she needs to reflect on the importance of putting the customer first. Made some nice points.

  • @sunshineinabottle
    @sunshineinabottle Před 2 lety +2

    The title says ‘how i built 5 multi million dollar companies’…I mean I would have expected a little more of the ‘how’..?? We barely heard much about fitflop, beautypie etc never mind the process through which the companies were built. Yes the conversation touched on Bliss and how it started but so much of her business story is just skimmed past. Is this because the guest doesn’t want to elaborate? It’s really disappointing because some of these conversations really get to the cusp of how a company was built, scaled, etc but then some of these conversations just fall short and as the viewer / listener, you’re left feeling as though it wasn’t worth the 1.5 hours invested. I think the interview should have been more focussed and if the conversation just doesn’t address what the title says it does, then use a different one, clickbait isnt going to keep viewership. Wishy washy material just for the sake of a longer podcast rather than having pride in your work and actually producing material worth its journalistic weight by someone who is allegedly supposed to have a higher than average business acumen. Listeners of this business podcast are not of average intellect (most of the public is not going to be interested in a majority of the guests) but these conversations are appearing more and more like the equivalent of pop culture and if that’s the target audience then perhaps steve should change his tact and interview more of the likes of liam payne and his journey through pop stardom. How disappointing getting THE guests we want to hear from, about the business and it’s journey but barely getting much in return for an investment of 1.5 hours. This should be called therapeutic sessions with ceos - we talk about feelings and skim over the business bit.
