Seth Godin | How to Become A Successful Marketer & Entrepreneur with Kelsey Humphreys

[@RahulKumar-he5ss]

currently watching all the seth godin interviews on the internet. dude if he gets old, just become an alien somehow and keep sharing wisdom. You are IMPORTANT. World needs you.

[@confuciusgreens]

What I got out of the first question/answer/key takeaway was also that you shouldn't start a business with the idea that you will sell it. That would be starting a business with the intention to quit. That shows lack of passion, and how valuable will your business be if you're not passionate, and have a pre-planned out? Who actually starts a business with the intention to get out of the business? That's self defeating. Good interview.

[@thekelseyshow]

+confucius greens good insights! Thanks for the comment! - Kelsey

[@confuciusgreens]

The Pursuit Thank you for the awesome content Kelsey. Keep it coming.

[@mpaculan]

+confucius greens Well said!

[@Bazonkaz]

Well I would sell the business to reinvest the money into other more ambitious business ideas.

[@7bener]

this is completely unreasonable. You say that if you dont plan to sell it, you want to quit sooner or later? The real passion lies exactly there in my opinion, not selling the business because you want to be responsible for it yourself during its whole lifecycle. See, Snapchat rejected a billion dollar offer from facebook. Think about it, what possible reason could someone have to not accept a billion dollars? people should start a business because they love it and want to chance something, not have dollar-signs in their eyes.

Seth Godin is genius! He can turn an interview into something of substance. Brilliant!

[@MumToMillionaire]

Great interview Kelsey! LOVE Seth 'I don't watch TV or go to meetings, I have 7 more hours than everyone else' SO TRUE

[@thekelseyshow]

+Mum to Millionaire thank you so much! Appreciate the comment! - Kelsey

[@TravelTipsbyLaurie]

Wow you had your work cut out for you with this creative author. Great wisdom from him. I heard you on the Business Boutique conference podcast version. Congrats!

[@24inspiredmedia]

that was not your typical interview. lots of answers had you still have to do your own thinking, creating so to speak. Great stuff💯💯

[@Warrior_of_light777]

Great information from Seth- How in the world did you get a chance to even sit down with him. You must have people that know his people. Learned a great deal. Thanks- Forward unto 2017 and beyond.

[@MartaWyngaard]

The gift of ADHD is to hyperfocus, and when the deadline is urgent we are at our best, focusing and going deeper. It is the best feeling ever because we are in the zone.

[@Lunch-d]

Genius guy, and fab interview Love the 7 hours a day saved, totally true. What was the name of the blog Seth said 'totally different way of looking at things' mentioned..it sounded like ex casey or something...? Any help on this would be swell! Also his the first guy that really brings gary v down to earth..sometimes needed x

[@magnummitzvah5245]

+Oli Perron He might have said "XKCD"

[@chuchutrain11ify]

This video is packed with wisdom! Thank you.

[@pacosta2514]

Great interview. It was hard to focus with the rough cuts done by the editing but ended up subscribing because it was really well done. Looking forward to the others!

[@KelseyHumphreys]

+Paul L'Acosta thanks Paul! We are working on getting better with editing each episode, appreciate the sub!!

[@FendyWinardi]

He nailed it! Great question too! Thank you for providing a great lesson.

[@KelseyHumphreys]

You bet Fendy! Thanks for the comment!

[@canaldeautoayuda6089]

You go Girl!!! I subscribed as soon as I saw the interviewer is a woman!!! In a field that is driven by mostly men I am so glad to see women rise in the bussines area as well!!😍😍😍 no offense I love Time Ferriss..Tai Lopez Tony Robbins etc.... But is great to see women hustling to leveling the field!! Great job!!😍😍😍😍😍😍

[@thekelseyshow]

Thank you for the kind words!

[@arslanahmed2087]

Hey that was a great interview, very resourceful indeed. Wish you very best for your future work. Thankyou for all the content.

[@itskennytheclown65]

Seth is always interesting.

[@magnummitzvah5245]

I agree with everything Seth says. But, one issue: at the end, the woman recaps that Seth "didn't try to make money." I understand the value of that attitude. However, you have to pay the rent, etc., just to get by, so that you can continue taking chances & doing great work. Does anyone have any thoughts?

[@Studierenplus]

Great interview. Greetings from Germany

Seth Godin vs. Gary Vaynerchuk debate

[@Shystichu]

+Deli Stacks Gary all the way.

[@ragnarruutel]

Why on earth would they have "What to Do When It's Your Turn" Estonian version on self?

[@SSonny-qs6kv]

How...how are you doing this? Do you know these people? Could you please give a little behind the curtain?

[@xJoeKing]

Only 9k subs? WTF???

[@ExtraordinaryLiving]

Who cares about the numbers?!? Have you listened to this interview, what Seth Godin shared? ;)

[@LisaMarie-rh5yn]

I adore Seth so this was great; glad still here. Except 😬did this interviewer really NOT give Seth a heads up what the topic was AND that he notoriously doesn’t like to discuss himself? Further, first question was so cringe-worthy about the whole “I heard u made X million selling your business & gosh how would u advise people do that?! If you’ve studied Seth, u know that’s the last thing he’s gonna care about, let alone want to discuss. He was a great sport.

[@thekelseyshow]

Hi Lisa! I get what you're saying but this was a *personal profile* on him, his successes and his advice, for Entrepreneur.com and Success.com, and he knew that. And I try to tailor my questions for the audience who have always wondered x y and z about my guests. Of course I take the guest's preferences into consideration and make sure we cover what they want to cover too. Glad you still enjoyed this tho!!!

[@bitesizefirst]

Well ofcourse Seth Godin was good as always but just to clarify this wasn't an interview, when you don't follow up after someone gives an answer and dive in a little deeper you are not interviewing you are interrogating. It's obvious from her respons on a couple of answers she probably didn't even understood the answer on her own questions by looking up in the sky afterwards (brain scan) and not even making an attempt to adding some thoughts of her own on the matter while in conversation. Ofcourse not everybody is cut out to be an interviewer especially when you obviously lack real interest in the subject matter and your subject. I watched Seth give some profound answers on wich she answer "well yeah ok, going to the next question" common please who is calling this an interview. The subject matter was good , what came out of Seth's mouth was good.. and that was it. Also when you want to come across as a professional and serious interviewer pls don't make up your hair like a barbie doll and wear something pink. (maybe you'de be better suited uploading make-up video's or something)

[@realjackbronco]

I notice the same thing in a lot of these videos. The people being interviewed HAVE to get tired of the same drivel they are asked each time they sit down with a new person. Like you said also, they make a hell of a reply to a question and the person interviewer was NOT listening. Just onto the next question on their little tablet gimmick.

[@jobe958]

Great interview ! He's such an interesting guy. Kelsey you are a great interviewer.

[@FendyWinardi]

He nailed it! Great question too! Thank you for providing a great lesson.

[@thekelseyshow]

+Fendy Wizard He always does! You're welcome Fendy thanks for the comment! - Kelsey

[@andreasfuhrer9936]

Congrats on this great interview with Seth Godin! Enjoyed it... 2 questions: What were the blogs/podcasts that Seth mentioned? Did you recently interview Gary Vaynerchuck? I thougt I spotted you in one of the last dailyvee episodes :) Thanks

[@thekelseyshow]

+Andreas Führer 1)The Moment and 99% Invisible. 2) yes! IT will be posted right before his book launch in March =) Good eye! - Kelsey

[@SpencerHeckathorn]

I really enjoyed this interview!

[@thekelseyshow]

+Spencer Heckathorn glad to hear that Spencer! - Kelsey

[@cruxman1]

True value in here. Great interview.

[@fabia.2415]

Great Video!

[@miguelespinoza8602]

I am a flooring contractor and I work alone do to the distractions from idiots And I spent my ears time listening to smart people like Seth Godin

[@sweet_sanndy6037]

Amazing interview! The most valuable thing I took away is "don't seek/ask for reassurance". I think that is such a huge thing in our world today and I'm guilty of it. Wanting to know if I'm doing things right because the last thing I want to do is be bad at work. But I have found most often that if I take the initiative and do things first it works out great for me and those around me. So for someone like Seth Godin to say that, it just drives the nail home!!

[@ExtraordinaryLiving]

Seeking reassurance and approval and not wanting to do the "wrong" thing ... all these have a very long, deep, and profound history of why we behave this way. Listen to any of the many spiritual speakers out there today, and you will get the answer why. BTW, have you just now realized that you have just gratified yourself for having what you've been doing reassured (by Godin)?!! Haha!

[@ericchuang7444]

what blog did he recommend?

[@itsangelahey]

24:20 "... the minute someone gives you a map, you're a burger flipper. You need to say - what map can I draw?" YIKES! I appreciate his ability to almost always make the simplest yet most profound analogies

[@wintaffy23]

He's truly a brilliant marketer. I couldn't help but notice the way 'C'est a vous de jouer' and 'On Sinu Kord' stare me in the face.

[@cashphattichaddi]

Awesome interview!! :-)
