For most people, entrepreneurship used to feel out of reach. Now, technology has provided the necessary tools for anyone to start a company that has all the potential to give them freedom. Dan Sullivan and Steven Krein discuss the many invaluable ways AI can be used by business leaders, and how it’s opened doors for dreamers.

Show Notes:

Entrepreneurism by its very nature creates disruption and inequality.

Entrepreneurs like talking to other people who are entrepreneurial about their ideas in order to develop them further.

AI is creating a whole generation of people learning how to learn differently.

It might be more interesting to consider what using AI does to your brain versus what it does to your business.

Ten years from now, everybody's going to be using AI just as a matter of interacting with their computer.

People who would never use ChatGPT are going to have AI built into what they’re already doing on their phones and computers.

AI will eventually become so normal that it’ll become boring.

The Transformation Trilogy: Who Not How, The Gap and the Gain, and 10x Is Easier Than 2x by Dan Sullivan and Dr. Benjamin Hardy

As of this year, Dan Sullivan has been a business coach for half a century, and Strategic Coach® has been helping entrepreneurs lead their best lives for 35 years. In this episode, Steve Krein and Dan discuss the inaugural CoachCon event that recently took place in Nashville, how the three-day conference came together, and the secrets that made it a resounding success.

Show Notes:

When people are committing to an event that requires traveling, they give it a lot more thought than they did before COVID.

You’re going to see that almost all businesses have three tracks: a technology track, a teamwork track, and a coaching track.

Technology does not coach itself. Teamwork doesn't naturally expand itself.

Dan sees it as a form of progress when great things can be created in his company that he has no involvement in.

Most conventions and conferences are overloaded with content with no time to think.

What gets talked about in free periods during conferences is a more important takeaway than anything heard in the panel discussions.

Sponsors of communities are not always authentic members of those communities.

If people have a great experience, they'll tell a few people about it. If they have a bad experience, they'll tell a lot of people about it.

Ever been to a concert where everyone sings along to every song? That's the power of community. Dan and Steve explore the emotional side of entrepreneurship, discussing the benefits of building a strong community. It’s an environment of shared language, shared opportunities, and shared experiences where everyone can gain and grow.

Show Notes:

In any community, shared language and experiences create an environment where people feel more comfortable.

When you bring entrepreneurs together, there’s a shared language and also shared challenges that they’re all deeply familiar with.

When entrepreneurs share networks, it’s an instant capability.

Entrepreneurs can have shared opportunities not only individually, but collectively.

Questions are more powerful than answers.

Technology is actually about taking things that already work and putting them into a new form.

You can create a new lesson and a new course of action out of any three of your past experiences.

You want your existing clients to be part of your marketing team.

When you get involved with investors, there are two numbers that really matter: 51% and 49%.
