Today on the More Cheese Less Whiskers podcast, we're talking with my friend and owner of the Dolphin Image Studios, home of this very podcast, Juan Pantoja.
The facility here in Winter Haven has a lot of history in the movie business, and Juan and his partners took it over in 2020 and are rebuilding it to its former glory.
They've done some great work on the buildings, the technology and the 8-acre 'back lot', and they're really providing a one-stop shop to movie makers.
When we think about the VCR formula - Vison + Capability * Reach, they have a great opportunity to be even more successful by becoming that C, the capability for all sorts of businesses, not just movie makers.
This is a great conversation with lots of ideas on taking your skills and becoming the 'who' for people looking to multiply their capability.

I love chance encounters & that's exactly what happened with Ryan. We met because we both happened to be hanging out at the same coffee shop. Ryan is the double of my good friend Ross, so of course, I had to say something.
I got to know him more, and we had some great conversations about the opportunities he has to engage and build the people who love his music, so I wanted to share some of these with you.
We had a great show talking about his latest release, building his audience, amplifying the success he's already had, and orchestrating his fan base to keep them engaged and wanting more of the music he's creating.
There's a lot here, and whether you're a musician or entrepreneur, You'll recognize Ryan's passion for the things he creates and his enthusiasm for sharing them with people.
Read moreToday on the More Cheese Less Whiskers podcast, we’re talking with my good friend Lane Bowers. The world's most passionate marketer in the world's smallest niche!
Lane's been a friend for 25 years. We met here in Winter Haven and we hit it off right away. I'd just come out of building my marketing ideas and applying it all to my real estate business. The Internet and all its opportunity was just starting, and Lane was a barefoot water skier, not just any barefoot water skier, but a former world champion, barefoot water skier.
He was running ads in Water Ski Magazine, and I laid out this long business plan printed on a dot matrix printer. A manifesto showing Lane how to capture email addresses and build a business of people who are likely to do business with you in the years to come.
Today we’re checking in on that story, and what Lane is doing today using the skills he learnt building that list.

We had a great conversation talking the journey he's made over the last five years from starting out to now having a thriving business with four vans and a whole crew of people doing the work.
We then turned our attention to the future and looked at niching down his before unit to create opportunities rather waiting for reactive opportunities, and we talked about the big opportunity in his after unit of nurturing relationships with the people who already know him already like him already trust him.
Read moreToday on the More Cheese Less Whiskers podcast, we have a special new episode.
The very first guest on the podcast was immigration lawyer, Jim Hacking. We talked then about using a book to identify his best prospects, people who are looking to move to America, and the big opportunities that he has in really tapping into building a list of people who are on that path.
Now, we're starting a new season of the More Cheese, Less Whiskers podcast, in video! and our very first guest is... Jim hacking.
We had a great conversation. We talked about the tremendous growth in his business since we first talked and we moved into talking about the big opportunity that he had in his After Unit now he's really dialed in the Before Unit.
We talked about the books he's written with us at 90MinuteBooks.com, and the success of this YouTube channel. It's an amazing machine that continues to bring in new business for them, but now we talked about rolling that over and looking at the big opportunity in building his 'return on relationships' in the After Unit.
Read moreToday on the More Cheese Less Whiskers Podcast, we have a special treat.
Usually, when I have people on the podcast, I don't know them, it's the first time I'm getting to know what they're working on, but today I've got my good friend, Tim Organ.
Tim is married to another good friend, JJ Virgin. I was at their house for dinner just after Christmas, we were talking about energy and focus and all those things you think about to get an edge on the New Year, and Tim gave me some supplements he had been working on as part of a top-secret project.
Well, now his project, his edge performance pack, is available.
It's a really great combination I've been taking since then that gives clarity and focus. What's great about it is the energy I get is what I call a 'happy energy,' rather than the amped-up feeling you might get from a caffeine-type supplement. It just helps to stay focused and clear.
So, Tim and I are going to talk about the launch of his new supplement, and I'm excited for you to hear the brainstorming of the idea and hopefully give you a chance to experience this for yourself.

Last week we focused on what was happening with James on that side of the planet; this week, I bring James up to speed on everything I've been doing.
It was a great conversation, including piggybacking business models, measuring success, and... how to start a makeup business!

It’s always great to see what’s on the other side of the planet!
Read moreToday on the More Cheese Less Whiskers podcast, we're talking with Mardi Boettcher from California. Mardi is embarking on a new adventure as a coach, and this is a perfect example of how all of the elements of the Before Unit perfectly fit in place.
We went right through from selecting her target audience to getting people to raise their hand so she can build an audience of ideal prospects, and we talked about Profit Activator 3: How to educate, motivate, and engage in a dialogue with them so she can present the offer to join her program.
It was a great conversation because she has a really focused secret target audience, looking to attract ladies who are entering their sixties and who want to amplify and get everything they can out of life.
She has a real passion for this way of living. She loves the idea of working with this audience, and she's well on the way to get there.
Read moreToday on the More Cheese Less Whiskers podcast, we have a very special episode that I'm excited to share.
One of the great joys in my life is my relationship with Jay Abraham. Jay and I have amazing, long conversations about marketing, philosophy, what's going on in the world, and this week I got to record one of these conversations for you.
It's a great opportunity for you to listen in to the ideas we talk about, and we also talk about something special Jay is doing with Tony Robbins tomorrow!
So this Saturday, Jay and Tony Robbins are holding a marathon event called 'Lock In 2021'. They do these amazing hot seat events where Jay gets to spend a day with Tony Robbins and his platinum group. These are people from all over the world, his highest level masterminds, and all they do is tag team back and forth doing Q&A hot seats, answering questions, helping strategize or solve challenges for these business owners.
Jay and Tony have edited 12 hours of the best of these sessions into a marathon session they're going to be hosting tomorrow.
This has my highest recommendation. I'm not an affiliate or anything like that. I want you to experience how they do it because our podcast is all about that same approach. It's essentially a hot seat every week we share and apply the 8-Profit activators.
So, check it out at Lock In 2021, and in the meantime, listen to my conversation with Jay.
