what an privilege it is to begin business as a 23 year old with someone like you; relaying personal experiences and teaching me how to be a badass in my industry. i appreciate you so much dude. you’re my idol.

I have always been interested in counselling and sales. Thanks for showing me how to combine the two. I am new to sales and this resonates with how I'd like to sell. Thank you for the value <3

Basically if you’re an hourly rate it doesn’t pay to work efficiently and neither does salary 😀

No risk to you but I take 50% of everything 🤣 Sharks is hungry ☠️ But I do it for free 💀

I see Sam’s posts in my LinkedIn feed very often - because some of the accounts I follow comment on them. Kudos to him for making it to 50k! But also how much of that success is attributed to him being coached by Justin Welsh? (Something that Justin posted about)

Good workers are punished with extra work and therefore, if divided by their increased work load, is making less per hour. Then what's the incentive for going above and beyond? Work what they pay you and not be exploited unless they compensate you for the extra work or financially reward you for exceptional work within a short amount of time.

You aren’t taking all the risk, he is too. Unless if the definition of risk has changed

Sounds very very rehearsed.

Completely valid question/concern, and a brilliant response with an incredible point.

Love that. A better question what your customer would call you? A mentor? A coach? A brand adviser? Speak your customers language.

Lol, Charming razor blade 😂

This is PROFESSIONALISM!!!

This will probably get deleted but heads up y'all: Be VERY wary of people who achieve growth on LinkedIn by talking about how to achieve growth on LinkedIn. This is like a stadium food vendor telling a French restaurant how to sell more hotdogs. I have 126K followers on TikTok so I can assure you - if your target market isn't "everyone active on this platform" the same rules do not apply to you.

need the next part!

It’s good way for anyone social media

This works just for free lancers. For everyone else this concept of loan kinda works

Chris/The Futur thanks again for putting me on to yet another pro who’s helped me immediately after the episode. My list includes Daniel Priestley’s first interview, John D and his illustrations, Rene Rodriguez and now Sam Browne.

Bro its commision for art. Its corporate art but its art. No one in their right mind would pay a creative hourly especially an artist. Excluding evil corps of course.

This is why I’m glad I get paid a daily rate.

The narrative is like the Christmas tree and the stories are the ornaments on the tree

Very few of us think that we have permission to tell the bigger story

Awesome Insights!

Amazing as always❤

Thanks for this amazing video. It is really helpful for me as a designer.

Thanks so much for having me on, Chris!

clowns making money of clowns

How Convenient! LOL. Talking to Chris at CreativeVerse, Chris literally just told me, "Get on LinkedIn." Then drops this video today. As usual I appreciate the information online and in person. Now I'm going to do my best impersonation of Chris, be a good student and do the work.

The one important factor not mentioned is that you cannot do this when you are starting out :D do this and bad word will spread like wild fire leaving you struggling for a long time. Be forward with everyone and dial down as you get bigger. At a certain point you can lean back and say "There is the door and don't forget to close behind yourself" in a diplomatic way where the people you just kicked out will be surprised how friendly you are and come back with more customers because they started to like you. Image does a lot too. If you are wearing expensive stuff (or can show off other things) that is easy to recognize you are less likely to be ever asked such a question. if you look medium or poor you are "eye" level to most clients and thus they know they can attack you in random ways. But if you are above their reach most won't even try.

Amazing insightful and targeted as always. Love that I found the Futur! ❤️

Numskar ji ⚘️🙏🍀

There are no winners on linkedin. Everyone on linkedin is a loser.

some people just like to devalue peoples worth, you could fix a car he had taken to other mechanics in less than 30 minutes and he will still say what your charging isnt worth the 30 minutes of work even doe other mechanics couldnt fix it

Chris, I love how you pick great people to interview and keep the interviews on track so they’re all tender morsels with no filler. Thanks for all you do.

I honestly dont care so much about the HOW to grow a following on LinkedIn, but rather WHY. This is not an attack, but an honest request. The HOW is usually never really important, but the WHY is most of the time very important in the pursuit of X. Also might add WHO. Who should care to why to grow a following on LinkedIn :) And Chris, i know you can give a great take on this, and not any of that shallow bs that many would do, so thats why i am asking HERE :)

This was insightful, thank you for sharing.

if that guys is serious about not paying 1k and still not sure about 50/50 split he a freakin dumb 4ss

How did you know I just made my LinkedIn profile 5 days ago? I absolutely love it. I was very scared to join because I have no degree. But wow, it's so much better than Facebook. Looking forward to finding clients there and honing my skills. Thank you.

This video is about to making me to overcome my toxic relationship ❤thanks

With this guy's hesitancy, I would be concerned about his honesty to pay me what we agreed upon.

Just on time this talk and such a great insights!

This issue is that’s assuming you send the client the logo and they are immediately happy with it. In my experience, working on a project rate gives the client the impression they can ask for infinite edits-asking you to go back to the drawing board over and over again only to eventually arrive back at the original design. By offering an hourly rate, the client is forced to really consider what they like and don’t like about the design, limiting the edits to keep the billables down

Nice useable nuggets 💸

Facts!!!

Greatest takeaway this episode for me is changing my mindset. Thank you both for sharing your knowledge and experiences

Good job explaining MANIFESTATION, Chris! 🎉 Your wife would approve! 😅 You incorporated both the ✨woo woo 🪄 & psychological perspectives 🧠. As a mental health therapist who often guides clients into manifestation I like to remind them that it involves using positive thinking, visualization & self-fulfilling prophecies to influence outcomes. Positive thinking broadens awareness and fosters new skills, visualization activates brain areas related to performance & self-fulfilling prophecies encourage behaviors that lead to success. Cognitive dissonance motivates you to change your behavior to better align with your goals & then the placebo effect shows the power of belief causing you to hit the “repeat” button… these psychological principles help create a mindset that enhances motivation, focus & resilience helping you meet your personal goals. 🎉Get it.

Great job

I work in sales and one of the biggest mistakes I see new sales associates make is selling out of their own pocket. You have to have the mentality that whatever client you are working with is looking for the absolute best product and service because that is what everyone deserves. Don’t bring objections to your client, overcome them when they get brought to you. Also you want to sell the problem not the product. Everyone has “great” product nowadays but why is that relevant to your client? Don’t tell them “they need” what your selling tell them “why they need to have it”.

This channel is very important to me. So, thank you.

Use to take out trash for apartment buildings. I was able to clear them in 2 hours when on avg it took 3-4. When I told my employer that it’s not worth it for me to do 3 locations because I’m not getting paid more than guys who do 1, his reply was “Yea man, try to slow down and extend out the shift”. I left the company shortly after
