How to Have Bigger Business Impact with Fewer Clients
Becoming a Wizard of Marketing and Making a Business Impact
- Gary went to an Ivy League school for college, but he decided to drop out to get a job in computers.
- In just about a month, he became a head programmer for an advertising agency.
- His task was to digitize the entire company, where he completed it in a year instead of the original two and a half year plan. He decided to resign because he was more interested in freelance consulting.
- After that, he started Custom Business Solutions, where he worked with big companies such as Ford, AT&T, major hotel chains, among others.
- When he started Interactivity Digital, he worked with other traffic companies, carving out their niche in the space.
Overcoming the Biggest Pitfalls
- Stop pitching. Create a package and sell the same thing to everyone.
- Streamline what you do, when you do it, and how you do it.
- Raise your price to get a better caliber client.
- The more you charge, the more committed people are to their results.
- Never give anything for free because they won’t value it.
Becoming Number One and Making a Business Impact
- Serve a few clients and make a more significant business impact.
- People receive offers differently based on price. His clients didn’t believe him when he said that he could make their goal to add an extra million dollars of revenue happen at $24,000. Only when he raised the charge to $72,000 did they think that it’s a considerable investment.
- Give the same treatment and price charging to everyone, even to your mentors.
Establishing Systems and Processes
- He sticks to his process because whenever he messes it up, he doesn’t do a good job, and things fall through the cracks.
- Know what your strengths are, and then hire a team who’s better at everything in the business.
- Do a dual-level purchase or a dual-level buyout contract to prevent a client from taking your employee and vice versa.
Building Operations and Systemizing
- Do everything manually, and then document what you repeatedly do.
- Put it into a written standard operating procedure that no one forgets. It saves time because everyone knows what to do, even without retraining.
- Never be so rigid that you can’t tweak or modify something.
- Decide what you want to do, and decide what you want the experience to be.
Standard Operating Procedures
- He tells his employees to document routine tasks and build them into SOPs.
- Know what motivates individual people.
- He lets his employees do the job their way as long as they get the results for the clients.
The Holes in the Game
- There is so much potential in paid media work.
- Think of what legacy you want to leave in your life, not just in business.
- Your family and your life are way more important than your business.
Realizations and Motivations and Making a Business Impact
- Grow your wealth by diversifying income streams.
- Become a better person for everyone in your life.
- Know what your purpose is in what you’re doing.

Too good to miss! I was listening to the episode with Daryl Urbanski & Jermaine Griggs in my office yesterday. It was so good that a woman who works for me she didn’t want to leave when it was time for her to get off of work because she didn’t want to miss anything! Yes it is really that good. Do yourself a favor and Press play! I’m excited because I plan on being one of the 200!
