Discover why your business might be leaking profits despite your best efforts, and how small, strategic adjustments can transform your results. Digital marketing consultant John Wieberg reveals the common "leaky bucket holes" that prevent most businesses from achieving their full profit potential.

The conversation dives deep into one of the most overlooked profit centers in any business: your existing customer base. Once someone has purchased from you, they've already crossed the trust threshold—yet many entrepreneurs focus exclusively on new customer acquisition while neglecting this goldmine. John shares a powerful real-world example of a sauna business missing massive revenue opportunities by failing to follow up with past customers.

Email marketing emerges as perhaps the most misunderstood yet highest-ROI marketing channel available. You'll learn why most businesses approach it incorrectly and how proper segmentation, content strategy, and delivery frequency can dramatically improve your results. The myth that "emailing too often will annoy your list" gets thoroughly debunked, as John explains that relevance and value—not frequency—determine whether your audience welcomes or rejects your messages.

What makes this episode particularly valuable is the practical, actionable nature of the advice. These aren't abstract concepts requiring massive overhauls of your business. Rather, they're strategic tweaks that compound to create substantial profit increases. Whether you're struggling with marketing effectiveness, customer retention, or sales conversions, you'll walk away with specific strategies you can implement immediately.

Dr. Joey Drolshagen shares his journey from struggling with limited resources in Detroit to becoming a specialist in rapid business growth through his Subconscious Mindset Training (SMT) method. His approach focuses on helping entrepreneurs create alignment with their goals before taking action, ensuring efforts lead to meaningful results rather than exhaustion.

• The SMT method starts with developing a "dynamic vision" that clearly defines what success looks like
• Our subconscious programming determines the actions we take or avoid taking, often sabotaging our conscious desires
• Most business growth struggles come from internal alignment issues rather than external market conditions
• Throttling back exhaustive efforts paradoxically creates space for opportunities to emerge
• Dr. Joey landed a $25 million contract and three new clients during COVID by stepping away from "hustle mode"
• The method creates unique "systems of accelerating habits" tailored to each individual's authentic strengths
• Authenticity in sales creates trust and lasting relationships, even through challenging business circumstances
• True empathy means genuinely understanding the customer's perspective, not superficial connection techniques

Get a free copy of Dr. Joey's upcoming book "Reprogramming your Mind: The SMT Method to Rapid Growth" by visiting coachwithjoeyd.com and scheduling a 15-20 minute conversation.

The key to increasing revenue and having time to enjoy it lies in thinking like a business owner, regardless of your current role in the corporate world or as a self-employed professional.

• The clarity principle serves as the foundation of any successful business, requiring you to answer what you want, why you want it, and how you'll get there
• Surface-level answers aren't enough - you must dig deeply into what truly matters to you by repeatedly asking "what else?"
• Your "why" must be wrapped in passion and fueled with emotion to sustain you through challenges
• Your strategy (the "how") should focus only on actions within your control
• The four strategic parts of business include your marketing plan, sales process, business operation systems, and business project plan
• Effective marketing focuses on making yourself visible through consistent, value-adding content on 1-2 platforms initially
• A good sales process requires asking the right questions to understand what's important to your clients
• Business operation systems prevent you from "reinventing the wheel" for routine tasks
• A written business project plan with specific milestones keeps you accountable and reduces anxiety

Kurt Tuford, Professor of Advanced Professional Selling at the University of Houston and Vice President of sales development at DXP, joins Morris to discuss the fundamental differences between professional and amateur sales approaches. Together they explore how trust-building, systematic processes, and genuine curiosity create success in commission-based businesses.

• Professional sellers focus on what they can give to customers, while amateurs focus on what they can get
• Trust is built through credibility, reliability, and intimacy, all over self-orientation
• Following a proven sales process or system leads to predictable, repeatable results
• The art of asking great open-ended questions is the foundation of effective discovery
• Offering multiple legitimate options empowers customers in the decision-making process
• People get excited about features but ultimately buy benefits
• Technical aspects matter less than the business case when selling to organizations
• "Some people will, some people won't. So what? Next!" – don't get hung up on one sale
• The satisfaction in professional selling comes from genuinely helping people get what they want
