    Dissecting The Book of Life Ad Copy and Magalogue Framework by Robert Collier | #Marketing - Ep. 59
    Aug 6 2025
    In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show, I share one of the coolest pieces in my collection, an original 1925 signed set of The Book of Life by Robert Collier, and the magalogue (Magazine + Catalogue) ad that sold it. Robert Collier wasn’t just an incredible author in the personal development world; he was also one of the best direct response advertisers of all time, selling more than $200 million worth of books through the mail in the 1920’s! That’s INSANE! I break down the ad that sold this book set and why the same framework still works today. From the way he used visualization and storytelling (think Aladdin’s lamp and your own personal genie) to the powerful risk reversal and trial offer, this magalogue is a masterclass in how to sell with words. Key Highlights: How Collier’s ad opened with a powerful hook and visualization to grab attention immediately The way he layered storytelling, case studies, and benefits before ever introducing the product How he transitioned into the offer and made the book set feel like a “genie in a lamp” that could fulfill the reader’s deepest desires The risk reversal structure that made the offer irresistible (free trial, easy return, and low payments) Why the same hook–story–offer framework Collier used in print still applies to funnels, webinars, and sales letters today When you study ads like this, you see how much thought great marketers used to put into their offers. Collier couldn’t just throw up a page and run Facebook ads… He had to make the message and the offer so good people would literally mail back a postcard with their own money.

  • Sam Parr Reveals How He Grew The Hustle And Why You Shouldn’t Take Outside Funding | #Marketing - Ep. 58

    Sam Parr Reveals How He Grew The Hustle And Why You Shouldn’t Take Outside Funding | #Marketing - Ep. 58
    Aug 4 2025
    In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show, I sit down with Sam Parr, founder of The Hustle, My First Million, and Hampton, to break down how he built and sold one of the biggest email-based media companies in the country. Sam shares how he grew The Hustle by writing viral blog posts on Reddit and converting that traffic into email subscribers, why he focused on building reach through a newsletter when everyone else was chasing social media, and the simple revenue model that made the company so profitable before selling to HubSpot. We also dig into how he’s now building Hampton, a thriving community for entrepreneurs at scale. Key Highlights: How Sam used viral blog posts on Reddit to drive traffic and convert readers into email newsletter subscribers The monetization model that turned The Hustle into a multi-million-dollar company through sponsorships and ads Why he bet on building reach through an email newsletter instead of chasing short-lived social media attention How Hampton creates curated peer groups and why operational excellence is critical to running communities at scale The pitfalls of chasing outside funding too early and how Sam thinks about businesses that compound over decades Sam’s story shows that you don’t need complicated models or venture capital to build something big… You need a great product, a smart distribution channel, and the discipline to keep it simple. If you’re interested in building an audience, a newsletter, or a community-driven business, this episode is exactly what you’ve been searching for! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://sellingonline.com/podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://clickfunnels.com/podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Special thanks to our sponsors: NordVPN: EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://nordvpn.com/secrets⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee!

  • The Subconscious Mind in Business: This Book Changed How I Work Forever | #Success - Ep. 57

    The Subconscious Mind in Business: This Book Changed How I Work Forever | #Success - Ep. 57
    Jul 30 2025
    In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show, I dive into a rare book I picked up for $75 called The Subconscious Mind in Business by Robert Updegraff… The same author as Obvious Adams. It instantly became one of my favorites. The book hit me at the perfect time… Right after I tore both my biceps and literally couldn’t work. Turns out, not working may have been the key. I unpack how this book reframed the way I structure my workdays, why creative breakthroughs don’t come from forcing the issue, and how our subconscious beliefs shape the ceiling of our success. I also share stories from my own journey, from struggling to break six figures, to hitting plateaus at $1M, $10M, and beyond. And I talk about how each of those levels had less to do with tactics and everything to do with mindset. Key Highlights: The six-hour workday model and how to use the final two hours for subconscious creativity Why success is 90% psychology, and the real reason most entrepreneurs stay stuck How proximity and your environment shape your subconscious identity The hidden ceilings you don’t realize are holding you back Why creativity often strikes when you finally stop trying to force it This book reinforced something I’ve felt for years but didn’t have words for: when you stop working, the right ideas finally show up. Whether it was during my double-arm recovery or a late-night breakthrough on the couch, my biggest answers came when I stepped away from the desk. If you’re hitting a wall, the problem probably isn’t your tactics… It’s your beliefs. AND BTW… If you want my notes from this book, including quotes, key takeaways, and how I’m applying them in my business, you can find it all here! ⁠⁠⁠⁠http://russellbrunson.com/notes⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://sellingonline.com/podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://clickfunnels.com/podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Special thanks to our sponsors: NordVPN: EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://nordvpn.com/secrets⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee!
