The Podcast Profits Unleashed Podcast

Access Your Hidden Potential

Special Guest: Joey Drollshagen
 
In this powerful episode of Podcast Profits Unleashed, I sit down with business coach Joey Drollshagen, a media-savvy expert who’s been featured on Fox, NBC, and CBS. Joey opens up about his transformative journey, from growing up in a tough blue-collar family in Detroit to finding success by shifting his mindset through subconscious programming. He reveals how overcoming childhood struggles and years of trial and error led him to discover the life-changing power of subconscious mindset training (SMT), which completely reshaped both his personal and professional life.
As a coach today, Joey helps business owners and corporate sales leaders unlock their potential by identifying the subconscious programming that holds them back. He teaches his clients to break free from limiting beliefs and design personalized systems that align with their true selves, rather than following generic strategies. He emphasizes that success is unique to each individual, and the key to rapid growth lies in creating accelerated, personalized habits.
Joey explains how societal conditioning, especially regarding money and hard work, often holds people back. By breaking through these patterns, people can step into new opportunities that better align with their strengths and passions. He stresses the importance of embracing your individuality and forging a path that’s true to your own vision for success.
In this episode, Joey also discusses how limiting beliefs, particularly the “glass ceiling” mentality, can restrict business growth, and shares advice on how to challenge these self-imposed barriers. He offers insights on the discomfort of stepping outside your comfort zone and how it’s essential for growth. His SMT method is a game changer for anyone looking to break through mental limitations and unlock their full potential.
Key takeaways:
Subconscious mindset training (SMT) can lead to rapid transformation in business and life.
Success is personal, and one-size-fits-all strategies don’t work.
Breakthrough limiting beliefs to unlock new opportunities.
Embrace discomfort as a catalyst for growth.
Don’t miss this inspiring conversation that will help you tap into your true potential and achieve success on your own terms.
Welcome back to Podcast Profits Unleashed! In today’s episode, I’m sharing my three powerful tips on how I turn podcast guests into high-ticket clients without ever using a hard sales pitch. It’s all about building genuine connections, not selling, and I’m going to show you exactly how you can do this too, in a way that feels effortless, authentic, and truly adds value.
First, pre-qualify your guests as potential clients. It’s crucial to be intentional about who you invite onto your podcast. Think of it like hosting a dinner party—you wouldn’t just invite anyone off the street, right? Your podcast guests should align with your ideal client profile. Do a bit of research beforehand to see if their challenges and goals match what you can help with. This isn’t about being exclusive; it’s about being effective.
Next, build a real relationship. During the interview, forget about selling and focus on genuinely getting to know your guest. Ask open-ended questions, dig deeper into their story, and really listen. The magic happens when your guest feels comfortable enough to open up about their struggles. The goal is to plant seeds—not solve everything right then and there. The more they trust you, the more likely they’ll remember how you made them feel, which is far more important than any advice you offer in the moment.
Finally, offer a follow-up, not a pitch. After the interview, don’t just send a generic thank-you email. Instead, extend the conversation with a genuine offer to help, without any strings attached. Simply say something like, “I loved our conversation today, and I’ve been thinking about what you shared. I have a few ideas—would you be open to a call to discuss them further?” This shifts the conversation from a sales pitch to a collaborative discussion, where you can truly offer value.
Key Takeaways:
Pre-qualify guests to align with your ideal client profile.
Focus on building genuine relationships, not making a sale during the interview.
Follow up with a helpful offer, not a sales pitch.
By following these steps, you’ll turn your podcast into a business growth tool. It’s not manipulation—it’s alignment, collaboration, and trust. If you’re ready to launch your own podcast and need guidance, book a complimentary strategy call with me at podcastprofitsunleashed.com/appointment. I’d love to help you grow your podcast and your business.
Thanks for tuning in!

In this episode of Profits Unleashed, I sit down with trader, investor, and author Anmol Singh to dive deep into the realities of trading and financial success. Anmol shares his journey from learning to trade in his college dorm to becoming a successful investor featured in major outlets like Forbes and Business Insider. His story is not just about financial gains but about the mental resilience and discipline needed to succeed in the markets.
Anmol breaks down the importance of managing emotions in trading, emphasizing that success isn’t about winning every trade but about managing risk and probabilities. He explains different trading styles, including day trading and swing trading, to help people find a strategy that fits their lifestyle. Many people hesitate to explore trading due to misconceptions and a lack of financial education, but Anmol debunks common myths and encourages a strategic approach to investing.
One of the biggest challenges traders and entrepreneurs face is transitioning from structured environments—where external authority dictates actions—to self-driven accountability. Anmol highlights how success in trading comes down to integrity: doing what you say you’ll do, even when no one is watching. By reviewing historical data and developing trust in a strategy, traders can avoid emotional reactions and stick to a long-term plan.
For beginners, Anmol recommends starting with free educational resources, using a demo account, and proving consistency before investing real money. He invites listeners to explore his website, join his live chat room for real-time insights, and grab a free copy of his book, Prepping for Success, which focuses on the mindset needed to excel in any field.
If he had a podcast of his own, Anmol says it would be called Prepping for Success, reflecting his core belief that mindset is the foundation of achievement in both trading and life.
 
Key Takeaways:
Trading success relies on emotional discipline, risk management, and probability—not trying to win every trade.
Treat trading like a business, not a get-rich-quick scheme.
Self-discipline and accountability are crucial when transitioning from structured environments to entrepreneurship.
The best way to start trading is through education, demo accounts, and a gradual approach to real investing.
Mentorship and continuous learning are essential for long-term success.

In this episode of Podcast Profits Unleashed, I, Karen, am thrilled to welcome Keith Ellis, a superpower coach, bestselling author, and creator of life-changing frameworks for achieving what feels impossible. Keith shares his remarkable journey, beginning with his early inspiration from Tony Robbins and Dan Sullivan, and how his frustration with traditional goal-setting led to his groundbreaking work.
Keith introduces us to The Magic Lamp—a transformative framework that redefines goals as "wishes," making the process not just productive but exhilarating. His ideas have already helped over 100,000 readers worldwide. He also reveals the power of "Magic Questions," a tool to spark breakthroughs by asking the right questions at the right moments.

Key Takeaways:
Reframe Your Goals: Shift from rigid goals to wishes, making them more exciting and achievable.
Commit to the Impossible: Setting goals that feel unattainable forces your brain to think bigger and unlock untapped potential.

Power of Questions: Replace rigid affirmations with empowering questions like, “What if this were possible?”—allowing your mind to become more open and resourceful.
Keith likens this to “prompt engineering” for the mind: crafting the right questions to spark creativity and drive. He also shares the benefits of engaging your body and mind by speaking these questions aloud while moving, amplifying focus and commitment.

Call the Damn Leads: The Hard Work Behind Sales Success

Special Guest: Drewbie Wilson
 
callthedamnleads.com/freebookoffer
 
In this episode of Podcast Profits Unleashed, I’m thrilled to be joined by Drewbie Wilson, the founder of Call the Damn Leads, as we dive into the importance of doing the hard work to achieve true sales success. Drewbie takes us on a journey from his humble beginnings to becoming a successful entrepreneur and sales mentor. His message is clear: success in business doesn’t come from relying on automated systems or social media content alone—it comes from taking action, particularly by calling the damn leads.
 
Drewbie shares his perspective on how many entrepreneurs are misled by the idea of easy success through online courses or viral content, only to feel frustrated when they don’t get the results they expected. He emphasizes the value of understanding where to invest your time and focusing on activities that drive the highest returns. The key to sales success lies in having a clear, actionable process and a genuine passion for what you’re offering.
 
We also explore the L.L.S. formula—Listen, Lay out the plan, and Secure the Bag—a proven framework for converting leads into clients. The first step, Listen, is all about understanding the client’s needs by asking the right questions. Then, Lay out the plan by offering a realistic and transparent solution. Finally, Secure the Bag by confidently closing the deal and ensuring the client is ready to commit.
 
Throughout the episode, we also discuss how entrepreneurs often avoid direct sales conversations, particularly when relying on organic marketing. But, as Drewbie points out, building authentic relationships and being upfront about your intentions makes asking for the sale much easier.
 
We wrap up by touching on the importance of authenticity in marketing, the power of empathy, and using storytelling to connect emotionally with clients. I also share insights from my books, Crushing the Day, Social Media Mastery, and Diary of a Damn Closer, offering tools for mastering mindset, storytelling, and accountability in sales.
 
Key Takeaways:
 
Sales success requires action—stop relying on automated systems.
Invest your time in high-return activities and focus on building a strong sales process.
Use the L.L.S. formula to effectively close deals and build client trust.

Fearless Growth: Mastering Pricing, Mindset, and Freedom

Special Guest: Robin Waite
In this episode of Podcast Profits Unleashed, I sit down with Robin Waite, business coach and founder of Fearless Business. Robin shares his journey from running a thriving marketing agency to creating a coaching practice that helps entrepreneurs reclaim their time and boost their revenue. After experiencing burnout as an agency owner, Robin discovered his passion for high-level business strategy and coaching, leading him to establish Fearless Business. Today, he empowers business owners to refine their systems, overcome fear, and achieve sustainable growth.
 
We dive deep into why every business should be designed to be sellable—even if selling isn’t on the horizon—and how focusing on freedom and fulfillment can drive long-term success. Robin also unpacks his strategies for scaling businesses effectively, making more money with fewer clients, and tackling the mindset challenges that often hold entrepreneurs back.
 
Key Takeaways from My Conversation with Robin Waite:
Productizing Services Simplifies Selling: I learned how creating a clear, fixed price for your services—like buying a car with optional add-ons—makes it easier for clients to understand and invest in your offer. For instance, designing a website that generates 15-20 leads per month for $5,000 is an example of value-based pricing at work.
The Problem with Hourly Rates: Robin sees hourly rates as outdated and even unethical, urging entrepreneurs to shift to value-based pricing to align client goals with sustainable business growth.
Breaking Free from Money Mindset Blocks: We explore how early money conditioning impacts pricing decisions and how societal norms around scarcity can limit your ability to scale.
Employee to Entrepreneur to Investor Mindset: Many entrepreneurs struggle to transition from trading time for money to focusing on value creation. Robin explains how the next step is adopting an investor mindset, leveraging others' skills, and building passive income streams.
Why Goal Setting Must Evolve: Strategies for scaling to $100K revenue differ significantly from scaling to $1M. Robin emphasizes the need for long-term vision and intentional planning to build wealth.
Join us as we uncover actionable strategies and insights to help you scale your business fearlessly and reclaim what matters most—freedom and fulfillment!

Escaping the Owner's Trap: Scaling Your Business with an Exit Strategy

Special Guest: Richard Walsh
In this episode, Karen Roberts sits down with Richard Walsh, CEO of Sharpen the Spear Coaching and author of Escape the Owner Prison, to discuss the essential steps entrepreneurs must take to scale their businesses effectively while planning for their eventual exit. Drawing from over 30 years of entrepreneurial experience, Richard shares insights into growing businesses from zero to ten million dollars, emphasizing the importance of transitioning from solopreneurship to strategic CEO roles.
A key takeaway from the episode is the necessity of planning with an exit strategy in mind from the beginning. Richard explains how many business owners become trapped in the day-to-day grind, only focusing on short-term tasks like payroll, which keeps them on a "hamster wheel" with no real progress. Instead, having a clear exit plan helps business owners make more strategic decisions, filtering out distractions that don’t contribute to their long-term goals.
Richard also advises entrepreneurs to schedule regular strategy sessions—whether monthly or quarterly—to step back from daily operations and focus on the big picture. He advocates delegating tasks and focusing on the 5% of critical activities that drive business growth. By doing so, business owners can avoid burnout and build a sustainable, scalable company.
The episode also covers investment strategies that align with long-term business goals. Richard suggests investing in tangible assets like real estate and commercial property, which provide passive income streams over time. By living on a portion of their earnings and using the rest to accumulate assets, entrepreneurs can expedite their journey toward financial independence and a successful exit.
Listeners are invited to connect with Richard via his website for personalized coaching and to claim a free audiobook of Escape the Honor Prison.
Key Takeaways:
Plan your exit strategy from the start.
Delegate tasks and focus on high-impact activities.
Schedule regular strategy sessions to maintain clarity.
Invest in passive income streams like real estate.
Use your exit plan as a business filter for decision-making.

Transforming Debt into Freedom: Robert Hunt's Journey to Personal Accountability

Special Guest: Robert Hunt
In this episode of Podcast Profits Unleashed, host Karen Roberts interviews Robert Hunt, executive coach and author of Nobody Cares. Robert shares his transformative journey from facing $90,000 in debt and unhappiness to achieving financial freedom and personal fulfillment.
Key Takeaways:
Acknowledge Your Reality: Robert emphasizes the importance of recognizing your current situation as the first step toward change. Denial only prolongs dissatisfaction.
Personal Accountability: True change requires taking responsibility for one’s actions and choices. Robert encourages listeners to embrace vulnerability by sharing their struggles, allowing for support and solutions.
The Four Stages of Dissatisfaction: People often cycle through blame, excuses, a victim mentality, and waiting for change. Breaking this cycle is crucial for empowerment.
Peer Pressure Dynamics: Initially positive in youth, peer pressure can shift to negative adult influences, prompting people to maintain lifestyles that may not be financially viable. This pressure often leads to living beyond one's means, driven by ego rather than necessity.
Ripple Effect of Choices: Poor decisions, such as oversleeping, can create a chain reaction affecting mood, behavior, and relationships. Being mindful of daily choices can help break this cycle.
Proactive Change: Robert advocates for taking charge of one’s life rather than waiting for a crisis to force change. By embracing challenges and seeking solutions, individuals can redirect their paths.
Book Offer: Robert offers listeners a chance to receive a free copy of Nobody Cares, a guide to overcoming victim mentality and embracing accountability for a more fulfilling life.
Conclusion
This episode is a must-listen for coaches and experts looking to harness podcasting for business growth. Tune in to gain insights from Robert’s journey and discover how accountability can transform your life and business.
