• The Art of Public Speaking by Dale Carnegie: How to Speak So People Listen | #Success - Ep. 88

  In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show, we’re talking public speaking… Something that’s second only to death on people’s list of things that terrify them! Haha!  Before I ever dreamed of stepping on a stage, I was just an internet ‘nerd’ trying to make money online. In this episode, I share the story of how I first discovered the art of public speaking, why it terrified me, and the moment I saw someone speak with so much conviction that it changed my entire life trajectory.  I also dive into the original version of The Art of Public Speaking by the real Dale Carnegie, why this rare edition matters, and the single biggest lesson it teaches about becoming a powerful communicator. If you have a message, a product, or a mission you believe in, this episode will shift the way you think about sharing it. Key Highlights: ◼️The day I watched speakers make 60k and 100k from stage and realized that speaking to sell was a real skill ◼️How I overcame my fear of public speaking by learning persuasion first, not performance ◼️The emotional story of a speaker whose message reached me at exactly the moment I needed it ◼️The truth I’ve learned watching 250 plus Funnel Hacking Live speakers and why passion always beats technique ◼️What the original Dale Carnegie taught about conviction, belief, and why loving your message matters more than perfect delivery The power of public speaking isn’t about flawless articulation. It is about falling in love with what you are sharing so deeply that people feel it when you talk. That was true for me when I started talking about funnels, and it is still true for me today as I study the roots of great communication. If you’re looking to improve on your public speaking… This episode (and book!) is for you! ◼️⁠https://russellbrunson.com/notes⁠ ◼️If you’ve got a product, offer, service… or idea… I’ll show you how to sell it (the RIGHT way) Register for my next event →⁠⁠⁠ https://sellingonline.com/podcast⁠⁠⁠ ◼️Still don’t have a funnel?

• The Spy Quiz That Drove Millions of Leads with Andrew Bustamante | #Marketing - Ep. 87

  I kept seeing this guy everywhere online. Then I opened my Instagram DMs and found a message from 2021: “I’m the first ex-CIA officer to launch an information product… everything I’ve learned came from you.” A year later he went viral using the exact earned-media playbook from Traffic Secrets, stacked podcast appearances, and sent all that attention to one link that fed his funnel.  In this episode I sit down with Andrew Bustamante to unpack how he went from CIA to info business, why his name started triggering the algorithm, and how a single quiz became the engine that turned curiosity into qualified buyers. Key Highlights: ◼️The earned-media ladder that took him from small shows to the biggest podcasts and sent every viewer to one conversion link ◼️How a CIA-inspired spy quiz filters for personality, pinpoints a weakness, and turns attention into buyers ◼️The zero-ad viral strategy he ran on repeat and when to layer paid traffic on top of it ◼️CIA tradecraft mapped to marketing: adopt vocabulary, build commonality first, then shift beliefs, plus the nine-month conversion model ◼️Inside his value ladder: tripwire, smart order bumps, a daily intelligence brief, community, and high-ticket experiences that move readers into video buyers Most people chase views, but people like Andrew simply demand views by being so interesting and informative! He proves you can turn story, psychology, and smart funnels into a system that compounds without brute-force ad spend. If you run content, a podcast circuit, or a personal brand, study this one. Build a single path for attention. Use a diagnostic that creates desire to fix a revealed weakness. Move customers up with offers that prepare them for the next medium and the next level. That is how you turn interviews into income and strangers into true fans.

• Peter Cuneo Reveals Secret Strategies That Turned Marvel Studios Into a Billion-Dollar Empire | #Success - Ep. 86

  I got an email from someone saying, “Hey, you should interview this guy… He used to be the CEO of Marvel.” And I thought... wait, like Marvel-Marvel? As in Iron Man and Spider-Man??  Yeah… That guy. His name’s Peter Cuneo, and what he shared about leadership, storytelling, and turnarounds is pure gold. We talked about how he rebuilt Marvel from the ground up, and got to learn multiple lessons that will be in his upcoming book!  He’s one of the most fascinating leaders I’ve ever talked to. What he did at Marvel wasn’t just a financial turnaround, it was a transformation in leadership, storytelling, and how to connect people emotionally to a brand. Key Highlights: ◼️How Marvel used character development to rebuild emotional connection with fans ◼️Why great leaders embrace flaws and authenticity to build trust ◼️How consistent communication (like Peter’s pizza lunches) transforms culture ◼️Why strong leaders take ownership, admit mistakes, and lead through change ◼️The leadership framework behind his upcoming book Super Hero Leadership This conversation completely reframed how I think about leadership. Peter reminded me that people don’t follow products or plans… They follow characters. The same way fans connect to Iron Man or Captain America, your customers and employees connect to you when you let them see who you really are…. And communicate effectively with your team! ◼️If you’ve got a product, offer, service… or idea… I’ll show you how to sell it (the RIGHT way) Register for my next event →⁠⁠ https://sellingonline.com/podcast⁠⁠ ◼️Still don’t have a funnel?

• The Small Book From the 1930’s That Reminded Me Why I Love Selling | #Sales - Ep. 85

  Selling isn’t something you have to do… It’s something you get to do! When I first picked up The Romance of Selling, it completely reignited my passion for what we do as entrepreneurs. This book reminded me that selling isn’t about pressure, manipulation, or tactics. It’s about excitement, belief, and love for the thing you’re sharing with the world. In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show, I share what I learned from the book and how it connects to my own journey. From knocking doors as a missionary to failing in my first infomercial, I talk about the moment I realized that selling is really about energy and certainty. When you’re genuinely excited about what you have, that enthusiasm transfers to other people. And that’s when sales become effortless. Key Highlights: ◼️Why enthusiasm will always outperform the perfect script ◼️The difference between entrepreneurs, technicians, and true salespeople ◼️How a failed infomercial taught me the real meaning of belief in your offer ◼️The power of energy and certainty to move people to action ◼️Why selling is the greatest expression of service and leadership Here’s the truth: selling isn’t just how you make money, it’s how you change lives. When you sell, you’re inviting someone into a new story. You’re giving them hope, possibility, and transformation. That’s why I love this game so much. It’s not about closing deals. It’s about opening doors. ◼️If you want to go deeper and see my personal notes on The Romance of Selling, you can grab them here: https://russellbrunson.com/notes ◼️If you’ve got a product, offer, service… or idea… I’ll show you how to sell it (the RIGHT way) Register for my next event →⁠⁠ https://sellingonline.com/podcast⁠⁠ ◼️Still don’t have a funnel?

• The Secret to Building a Business That Thrives in the AI Era | #Success - Ep. 84

  AI is changing everything. Jobs are disappearing. Industries are majorly changing overnight. And yea… while most people are panicking… The next generation of entrepreneurs will be the ones who create and sell opportunities. In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show, I share what I’ve learned after six days of Inner Circle meetings with some of the smartest business owners in the world. You’ll hear how AI is transforming business models, where the biggest opportunities are emerging, and why the real gold rush of the next few years will come from helping others make money… Not just making it yourself. Key Highlights: ◼️Why AI will make most traditional jobs obsolete sooner than you think ◼️How entrepreneurs can make more money with smaller teams using AI ◼️The danger of a “jobless economy” and what it means for customers ◼️Why the biggest winners will be those who sell opportunity ◼️How to turn your existing product, service, or framework into a scalable opportunity This conversation is a wake-up call for every entrepreneur who’s paying attention. The old ways of doing business are vanishing fast, but new paths are opening for those willing to build them. If you can help someone else earn income, find meaning, or unlock a skill that changes their life, you’ll never run out of customers. The future isn’t about competing with machines…It’s about teaching humans how to win in a world shaped by them! ◼️If you’ve got a product, offer, service… or idea… I’ll show you how to sell it (the RIGHT way) Register for my next event →⁠ https://sellingonline.com/podcast⁠ ◼️Still don’t have a funnel?
