[1:14] – Monique introduces her guest Mr. Ben McAdam from Sydney Australia.

 [1:54] – What are you actually doing for entrepreneurs out there?

·    I’m a profit Coach, advisor, coaching kind of a role.

·    I help business owners who run six or seven-figure businesses and they looking to grow and earn more.

[2:44] – Can you give us a little professional background?

·    I studied at the Sydney Conservatory of Music for a year and a half doing a music education degree after I finished high school.

·    The book “Rich dad poor dad” actually helped me with my own business.

[9:58] – What does efficiency mean to you?

·    Being efficient with the things you put on your to-do list, removing the things that aren’t necessary.

·    Only do the things that really need to be done.

[20:24] – What are the steps that take you away from “I don’t want to be out there”?

·    I just go chat with people, they noticed how hopeful I am and that’s kind of like my “baby steps”.

·    Helping more and more people, and then I’d get referrals, and that requires me to put myself out there.

·    I said to myself, all right, Ben, it’s time to stop avoiding marketing.

·    It was 10 or 15 times I was putting myself there over a whole year.
