Sam, thank you again for producing another piece of valuable content. These videos are absolute GOLD! You are in a league of your own in terms of quality & delivery. Appreciate you brother. Please keep them coming 🙏🏽
'Define your mountain, know what it is, scope out the land, figure out how you can climb to the top of that thing, climb up there, drive a stake into it and defend it like hell and own it' - That is the real strategy for success in business. Gold.
The best part of this video is knowing that even the great Sam Oven used to be distracted by shiny objects. There is hope for us after all. Thank you, Sam. Your course literally changed my life.
bro this video literally changed my percetion so much and the fact that literally 5am in the morning and im watching this makes me think im in a great path im 19 rn and i was so confused about my life bc my dad is a local restaurant owner and we make a decent life but ive always wonder if i actually want to stick to this business bc all the guys online are telling how much ebooks, courses, youtube, digital marketing is the way. now i realize im lucky for having something already running so ill focus on expanding that. thank you
Sam amazing content my friend!! I feel a weight lifting off the shoulders when I hear these key reminders about focus and value, it's so simple! I am also amazed at how you can hold my attention for a full 27 minutes!!! Lol!
I watched this 6 years ago but watching it now in 2024 makes more sense that ever before. I have my own Saas company and thanks to Sams Accelerator course I've made it this far. Thank you Sam.
Thank you so much Sam for this amazing value (as usual) I was saying to myself "you'd better work instead of watching" but I don't regret I watched it because I have understood something HUGE that I needed to go on and NOW I think the work is really going to start. You're a genius and I mean it. Thank you for what you deliver.Back to work to CRUSH IT!!!
Those two main points you’ve highlighted throughout this video are spot-on!!!! SOS has been the disease that has derailed my journey to success for many years. Sam, you just don’t know how much of an impact your videos are making in my life as an entrepreneur! Thank you!!!!!!!
Sam, your free stuff is better than others paid stuff! I've been all day at work listening to your videos one after another. I know I must get your course as soon as funds allow.
Thanks Sam! You told the absolute truth about "it." Others may have said it, but none spelt it out the way you have. Truly, I have lost some 28 years jumping around the shiny objects since the down of the net, lost nothing less than $1.5 m over these years. Now as I write this I have several programs I bought just last month, opened on my desktop daily, confused as to which to work on and often accomplishing nothing each day. Thanks for saying it as it ought to - An invaluable Advice. I wish I can consult with you. May be! But now I am absolutely broke.
I like Sam's videos, however when I scheduled a "live" video they tried to present Sam as being live on the training but it was really a previously recorded video with Sarah Brudnicki actually being the only person on the call. I'm ok with prerecorded videos but not when they are presented deceptively as live.
That’s the truth thanks Sam! I have been going through that the last year and a half or more and that’s after I purchased your coarse and didn’t finish it. After all that time I came back and am full speed ahead in 2.0. I’m so fired up!
Thanks Sam Ovens. You provide me/us with true value. Im gaining valuable education just listening to you on your channel. I appreciate you taking the time to record and post these videos.
Thanks, Sam. great video! As usual, you hit the nail on the head. It's so easy to jump from one niche to another. I think that really is the reason so many people fail to see their dreams come true.
Strong video Sam! I signed onto your program and am in week 3, excellent content. I’d love to see you do a video on how to craft a winning offering by taking existing individual bespoke consulting into process consulting for many. Especially when it comes to existing b2b businesses.
Thanks for the video. The video has pointed out that what I have been doing isn't all wrong. I need to put more focus on what I want to do and things that will not change.
Awesome Video Sam, thank you for sharing. I have major A.D.D! I actually managed to build a small Coaching Business based on what NOT to do, because I’d worked Online for about 15 years, been involved with roughly 106 different ‘Income Opportunities’ (not all were proper Businesses) and I managed to lose in excess of £250,000 (GBP) during those 15 years - most of which was during the first 10 years. I used to hop in to different stuff all the time & I usually had around 12 things on the go at any one time. INSANE right!? As it happens, I was diagnosed with Bowel Cancer last year - which I found out can develop & grow due to stress, which I obviously had a LOT of, because nothing was working very well (financially). However, I’m just about to start my ‘Curtain Call’ Business.... it’s Amazon! I have absolutely no intention on jumping to anything else and although my Cancer isn’t terminal, I have a totally focused ‘do or die’ attitude with this last Business. I NEED to leave a legacy for my daughter - a Cancer Diagnosis kinda reminds you that you’re not immortal & helps you reevaluate your priorities. Once again Sam, thank you for the poignant reminder, the inspiration, the motivation & for the great explanation of what I’ve clearly suffered from for many, many years - it’s a killer!
Sam...I love your videos....there is a high level of clarity that you bring to the concepts that you explain...and it takes a lot of thinking to get to the root cause...good videos mate... Keep rolling top quality content 👍
this is so true on every level. still hard when my interests land on so many things that get me excited. not just "biz" fads, but all the music I love to make and adventures I want to take
Sam this so dam true it's scary bro. The industry is filled with so many so-called experts it's just BS. Thanks for being real as usual and sharing some real world experience. 🤜🤛🔥💯
Thank you very much for this video Sam, this really hit me hard. They say the Truth Hurts! I definitely already know My Niche that I will focus on. I am also currently watching a number of your videos on-line and about to purchase your training and look forward to getting started. Thank you again. 😊
commitment takes a gut or experience at least. no one can commit to something until they experience niche hopping and what it has done to them and how time waste it is. i came to conclusion after 6 months of trying to choose a niche and i saw the results too. got me nowhere. now i'm stuck to network marketing for 3 months and i see myself getting improved every month when i look back. i'm not saying i didn't get value from your video on the contrary i'm thrilled to get such a knowledge . it also confirmed my experience even more, that i'm not the only one getting distracted by shiny objects every entrepreneur was there before. btw i'm fascinated of watching every video of yours, how can you provide so much value in a short video, plz don't stop, it's like free mentoring for people who can't afford yet.
thanks for sharing this Sam! I do think there are some rare opportunities at fleeting points in time for businesses to establish monopoly but still....the people capable of seizing those opportunities are the people who have been building their skills for years before those opportunities present themselves
Well I'm wrinting from the third world, and I have to accept, YOU ARE TOTALLY RIGHT SAM! we are so volatile, we wanT faster results with the minimun effort, we don't want to master the real things of the world, sales and create value. Pherhaps this syndrome it's gonna intesify during the next decades, because the new generations (including mine) are quite energetics, we believe that we can achieve it, just because the fact that somebody else did get succed, but we do not wanna master cappacities (as the succed people did), also this effect can be described as the iceberg effect, we can't messurate the hole volume of ice (in comparation with success we can not measurate the effort and the time used on the project). thanks a lot for the words Sam, this words are very easy to understand and even it's easier to masterized or innerized your message. greetings from Colombia.
I'm on Week 1 of the CA and you reiterate points here that you bring up there but you also say on the CA that if one niche doesn't work, try another and maybe even another - isn't this 'niche-hopping'? Could you please clarify this? Cheers Sam
If I may inject here, stop looking for the quickest way to wealth. Start looking for a painful problem in the market that you can solve. That's what Sam would tell you to do.
Sam, I've been chasing different things for 6 years... I've had success at some things but I just get bored of it regardless. I really don't know what to do.
I've picked dropshipping/ecom. Its day 12. On day 6 I was told its not easy by a CEO of a US marketing and Education company. It deflated me I thought it was pathetic he didn't secure me as a lead for his training. I think there's a big opportunity to cut through guru hype. Dropshipping works its just the landscape is/has changed.
For most of your content, I find it easy to think oh bla bla bla Sam's just winging it. He got lucky because being a consultant's consultant is one of those importance squared niches where so long as you make money, people will be sure you have the golden egg and pay you more to chase the dream, which feeds your advertising budget, giving you an ever expanding pool of dreamers. But you prove there's value, and this video really clarifies why. You're right, the grass is greener when you water it, and being aware of what will and won't change is critical. When I started focusing on developing an operating system for real-time visualisation, I knew it was safe to focus on because Microsoft and Apple can't change, they cannot follow my trajectory and do better because they're stuck on their own mountain which is focused on maximising quarterly profits. I'm for the long term, and believe the value cannot be ignored. I'm waiting to see other competitors, but increasingly confident that I offer something important. I've dedicated a lot of time to this mountain and I'm yet to make a dollar from it, but thank you for reminding me that niche hopping is not a solution. Elon Musk lived on a couch while developing PayPal (iirc), and it only takes one genuine success to get the ball rolling. It's a damn heavy ball though. My question for you: How can one get paid for progress? Or is the money always only attainable once the flagship product is complete (v1) ? And where can we find easy cash to keep us alive in the interim? You say you lived in your parent's garage like it's a negative, but it evidently gave you the time you needed.
Great video, Sam. Another words stop buying all the different brand of fishing rods and learn the skill set on how to fish with the first one. Products can come and go but it's the actual marketing skill set you achieve so you can use to promote just about anything. Wash, rinse and repeat. Yep, just water the grass you're actually standing on.
Yup just seeing things near me tells a lot about me: I jumped from web dev to competitive programming, college cgpa, works like CAD, chemistry and I have like 3 todo lists app on my phone ,
I tried many things, none of which I had the energy to pursue with relentless focus because they weren't something that I liked. I started doing consulting and I really like it, because I can see true impact in people lives.. you don't achieve this with affiliates, ecomm, ...
1. don’t be a niche jumper (don’t be an ADD psychopath). the grass isn’t greener on the other side, it’s green where you water it. don’t be distracted, don’t compare your chapter 1 to other’s 50 2. Focus on long term classic things that don’t change: bringing value via solving problems
