In this episode, #1 Bestselling Author and Highly Acclaimed business & Entrepreneur Expert, Mel Abraham, talks about how to take your concepts and communicate them in a way that gets action as well as results from the people that you are serving. As visual learners, we learn with pictures and frameworks. They are the key to inspire understanding and results. If we don’t get it right, your marketplace will be lost in complexity and confusion, there’s no understanding and what really happens is that there is no progress. When we get it right, the mess becomes simple, your audience sees themselves in there and it gives them path to results. It’s how they take their first step. The 3 things that you need to know: <ol><li>Geometry is real. There’s basically squares, circles and triangles.</li> <li>Emotions are imbedded. Your audience identifies with the fears, frustrations, aspirations, and dreams.</li> <li>Choreography gives it life. The syntax and process to unpack it will move them.</li> </ol><h2>The Framework Formula</h2> Here are the 4 common elements that all frameworks will have: <ol><li>Geometry: Squares, circles and triangles are pushed together. The shapes have different meanings attached but we must realize that every framework has geometry and it needs to be really thought out.</li> <li>Content: Content needs to be meaningful. They are the points that start to bring things home and allow for that movement.</li> <li>Emotion: Think about what emotions you are trying to bring out. Think about their fears, frustrations, aspirations, dreams and how you will instill certainty in them.</li> <li>Choreography: It’s about the steps that you are going to use to reveal the whole thing. An emotional dance of understanding to bring simplicity to complexity.</li> </ol>There are 6 types of frameworks: <ol><li>Value framework: Present levels of value so that your market can identify where they are, the challenges that exists and where they want to go. It gets them to have that desire or emotion.</li> <li>What framework: It’s about teaching someone a set of principles. Most of the times they are in the form of matrices.</li> <li>Process framework: With process frameworks, you are sharing the steps and what needs to be done.</li> <li>If framework: It’s evolutionary. It talks about “If we do these things, we will evolve to this level”.</li> <li>Urgency framework: It’s a model that creates a need to do something now.

TES 094 - How to Create Frameworks That Get Results

In this episode, #1 Bestselling Author and Highly Acclaimed business & Entrepreneur Expert, Mel Abraham, answers a question about whether it is time to quit your job and go from job to entrepreneur. As risk mitigators, entrepreneurs must weigh the risks before moving forward. If you do not get it right, you are living a dual life, there is no joy in earning, and you find yourself in no or low cash flow. If you get it right, you feel like you are in flow, you are monetizing your passion, and you find freedom and cash flow. The 3 key principles you should understand: <ol><li>Committed vs reckless. There’s a difference between being committed and being reckless.</li> <li>Plan and test. Put strategies in place and get feedback.</li> <li>Set your scale threshold. Not everyone has the same transition point.</li> </ol><h2>The Entrepreneur Transition Formula</h2> <ul><li>Preparation: It is about your thinking. Clarify what you are passionate about but passion itself isn’t enough. You must create value in other people’s lives with your passion. Also, interview the people you want to serve and know about the things that they are looking for.</li> <li>Evaluation: It is about analyzing. Plan your idea and how the journey looks like. Do micro-launches, test, get feedback and tweak it as needed. Finally, assess everything so you can move forward.</li> <li>Execution: It is about doing. Look at the financial viability and see whether it’s a viable commercial option. Understand who do you need to make it happen and form a team over time. Decide on your scale threshold. It’s the tipping point where you believe that you can make money at it, scale it if you dedicate more time on it, and it will allow you to fulfill your dreams and live your aspirations.</li> </ul>Get preparation and evaluation correct and you will find some comfort in the process. When you get evaluation and execution correct, you get clarity. Through evaluation and execution, we are living our calling. Transition is built on all of this. __________________________ ABOUT MEL ABRAHAM Mel is the founder of Business Breakthrough Academy and Thoughtpreneur Academy where he helps entrepreneurs bring their businesses to the world and build the lifestyle that they want.

TES 093 - How to Go from Job to Entrepreneur

In this episode, #1 Bestselling Author and Highly Acclaimed business & Entrepreneur Expert, Mel Abraham, teaches you how you can get your market to message right by building a bridge between the two. If you want to build an audience or a following, you need to be able to spread the right message to the right ears at the right time in the right way. This episode will teach you how you can get your market to message right by building a bridge between the two. If you do not get it right, your message gets lost and no one sees it.

You have walked in their shoes or understand what it’s like.</li> <li>They need to see a path. That you can take them from point A to point B.</li> <li>Transformation drives value. Articulate the transformation that they get.</li> </ol><h2>The Market/Message Bridge</h2> This framework allows you to articulate the value, transformation, messaging, and empathy. It’s about (1) being able to articulate the frustration, (2) giving them hope and (3) speak to their aspirations. There are 6 levels or hot buttons to this process: <ol><li>Emotion: What are they feeling? Articulate their frustrations, fears, anger, angst, and anxiety at the base level.</li> <li>Existence: It’s their current reality. What is really going on? Appeal to their struggles.</li> <li>Empathy: Understanding them from their position. What did you do when you were in their place?</li> <li>Evidence: They need to see the solution in you. Move them from frustration to hope.</li> <li>Envision: It’s about giving them a foretelling of the future. Say how you figured it out.</li> <li>Evolution: Attach to the desires. What are they feeling now and what new feelings come to light?</li> </ol>__________________________ ABOUT MEL ABRAHAM Mel is the founder of Business Breakthrough Academy and Thoughtpreneur Academy where he helps entrepreneurs bring their businesses to the world and build the lifestyle that they want.

We need a killer program for it because if we do not do it right, there is no one that has attention on us, there is no demand and it results in the fact that we can't improve other people's lives. When we get it right, there is an intense focus on us, we are in demand and the users get the results in the process. The 3 principles that you should know: <ol><li>Insights drive transformation</li> <li>Feelings deepen retention</li> <li>Action steps will lead to results</li> </ol><h2>The Killer Program Paradigm</h2> This framework will allow you to make an experience and build the feelings necessary to give your audience the action steps which in turn gives them the results in the process. <ul><li>Education: They come to us for training and so we educate them. We give them the insights which are not just the data but the interpretation and application of it.</li> <li>Experience: It shouldn’t flow in just one direction. People want to experience it and you have to make sure that they immerse in it so that it creates feelings inside of them. This is how you retain them.</li> <li>Execution: It should be executable. They should be able to apply it. Give them a step-by-step action plan.</li> </ul>If we build their feelings and give them the insights, they assimilate and identify with it.

TES 091 - How to Create a Training that Transforms

In this episode, #1 Bestselling Author and Highly Acclaimed business & Entrepreneur Expert, Mel Abraham, shares with us the framework and the tools so that you can build a lead magnet that converts. If you do not get it right, we're going to end up with a bunch of lookie-loos, we are in a situation where there's literally no traffic and we don't even get that first date with our audience. But if we get it right, qualified people will be attracted to our content, they even share it and you end up with courtship which is a trusting and loyal relationship. The 3 key principles that you need to know: <ol><li>They are looking for something</li> <li>It solves a specific problem</li> <li>It highlights a bigger solution</li> </ol><h2>The Lead Magnet Pillars</h2> The objective here is to get something that actually attracts and converts. There are 3 keys to it: <ol><li>Educate: They got to feel that it’s going to educate them. There should be information that is useful.

TES 090 - How to Create a Lead Magnet that Converts

In this episode, #1 Bestselling Author and Highly Acclaimed business & Entrepreneur Expert, Mel Abraham, about how you can engage your audience or market so that you excel in your presence out there and build a following that is going to champion you. If we don’t get this right we are going to feel deserted, it leads to feeling ignored and there is no growth. But if you get it right, there is a crowd and it is populated, you will enter into conversations and ultimately it becomes a stampede as they want to be a part of the community. The 3 principles that you need to know to building engagement with your market: <ol><li>Speak to their desires. Understand their dreams and aspirations.</li> <li>Get their commitment to do something.</li> <li>Decision is simply the catalyst. Only a few them are immovable.</li> </ol><h2>The Engagement Elevator</h2> This framework helps us to understand the following 3 pillars of engagement: <ol><li>Heart: It is about incorporating the emotional side. It may be a story, a statement or something that grabs them emotionally first. It’s a ‘why’ statement.</li> <li>Head: It is about engaging their rational thought process. Your communication with them should speak to the logical part of their mind.</li> <li>Hands: It is behavioral. Get them to do something. Get them to make a movement or take an action. It is how you get results.</li> </ol>Dealing with the head and hands together, you have given them the logic and the action items. It is how you get your audience to take a Decision. If you get the head and heart together, you speak to their logical and emotional side. That is how you incorporate their Aspiration. When you incorporate their heart and hands, their decisions are driven more by heart and less by logic. That is how you create a Mission. All this leads to generating Engagement with your audience and marketplace. __________________________ ABOUT MEL ABRAHAM Mel is the founder of Business Breakthrough Academy and Thoughtpreneur Academy where he helps entrepreneurs bring their businesses to the world and build the lifestyle that they want.

TES 089 - How to Build Engagement with Your Market

In this episode, #1 Bestselling Author and Highly Acclaimed business & Entrepreneur Expert, Mel Abraham, talks about moving from goal-setting to goal-getting using something called The Achievement Ladder. If we are not focused on achievement and goal-getting, we end up with spotty success, we have a complete lack of drive and we start to stew pessimism. When we get it right, we will walk through the success gateway, we are hyper-driven and we approach things with a knowing. Here are the 3 things that you need to know: <ol><li>Micro-successes are key</li> <li>Blame builds walls</li> <li>Positive expectancy</li> </ol><h2>The Achievement Ladder</h2> Goals are useless unless they are energized by emotion. They should be aligned with your vision and purpose. This ladder of achievement is meant to infuse you with the energy so you move from goals to success. Personal Growth: At the very bottom of this framework is personal growth. In order for you to succeed, you need to be willing to do things and have that inherent desire to grow. <h3>Perseverance</h3> <ul><li>Purpose: Why are you doing this? Why do you want this goal? Write it down because purpose is effectively your emotional why.</li> <li>Passion: What is the passion you bring to it? You got to have strong emotions behind it so that you and your team will get behind the mission.</li> <li>Patience: Have the patience to continue on the path to build things. You can’t control everything but you need to have the patience to deal with the setbacks and move forward.</li> </ul><h3>Practice</h3> <ul><li>Plan: What are the bite-sized action steps that you have in place? You need to plan out the resources, people and help that you need in your journey.</li> <li>People: Who are the people you need? Success is never a solitary pursuit. Think of the people you need like employees, team and customers.</li> <li>Positivity: Have positive expectancy. Be idealistic as well as realistic. Come up with 2 to 3 emotionally compelling positive statements to bring you back to the center.</li> </ul>__________________________ ABOUT MEL ABRAHAM Mel is the founder of Business Breakthrough Academy and Thoughtpreneur Academy where he helps entrepreneurs bring their businesses to the world and build the lifestyle that they want.

TES 087 - How to Maximize Your Success

In this episode, #1 Bestselling Author and Highly Acclaimed business & Entrepreneur Expert, Mel Abraham, talks about how you can be more productive with the help of successful rituals or habits in your life. If we don't get such rituals right, we find ourselves in a confused state, we are totally unfocused and we ultimately end up with no results. When we get it right, we have clarity, everything we do is intentional and we start to complete tasks. So here are the 3 principles that you need to know: <ol><li>Focus precedes action</li> <li>Actions don’t equate to completion</li> <li>Fulfillment is your true currency</li> </ol><h2>The Productivity Sphere</h2> This framework will allow you to divide your time in the morning and later in the day. Each activity gets a maximum of 90 minutes. The activity doesn’t have to be the same for everyone. You can use this as a reference to create your own sphere of productivity. In the AM <ul><li>Creativity: This is the time to be creative. You can spend the time generating ideas and writing them down. It is not necessary that you do it as the first thing in the morning.</li> <li>Exercise: The time for exercise is largely important. It energizes you and brings vibrancy back in your life.</li> <li>Team: This is the time that you separate for your team. Do they need something from you so that they can carry on with their work?</li> <li>Strategy: Sit back and look at your strategies. What are the plans that are and aren’t working, the things that you need to tweak?</li> <li>MIF: Most Important First. When you have a lot of things to do or are procrastinating, list them out and do the ones that are most important.</li> </ul>In the PM <ul><li>Review: Look back and review the day. Think about how you did your daily tasks and carried on with your strategy.</li> <li>Wins: What are your wins for the day? Did you accomplish what you set out to? It’s a way to compliment ourselves.</li> <li>Gratitude: Realize the things that you are truly, truly grateful for so that you create a chance to expand and grow from there.</li> <li>Plan: What are the wins for tomorrow? What needs to take place for them? Who do I need help from?</li> <li>Unplug: Shut the doors to your office and unplug. Be with your loved ones and rejuvenate yourselves so that you are ready to take on your morning rituals tomorrow.</li> </ul>__________________________ ABOUT MEL ABRAHAM Mel is the founder of Business Breakthrough Academy and Thoughtpreneur Academy where he helps entrepreneurs bring their businesses to the world and build the lifestyle that they want.

In this episode, #1 Bestselling Author and Highly Acclaimed business & Entrepreneur Expert, Mel Abraham, talks about how you can be more productive with the help of successful rituals or habits in your life. If we don't get such rituals right, we find ourselves in a confused state, we are totally unfocused and we ultimately end up with no results. When we get it right, we have clarity, everything we do is intentional and we start to complete tasks. So here are the 3 principles that you need to know: Focus precedes action Actions don’t equate to completion Fulfillment is your true currency The Productivity Sphere This framework will allow you to divide your time in the morning and later in the day. Each activity gets a maximum of 90 minutes. The activity doesn’t have to be the same for everyone. You can use this as a reference to create your own sphere of productivity. In the AM Creativity: This is the time to be creative. You can spend the time generating ideas and writing them down. It is not necessary that you do it as the first thing in the morning. Exercise: The time for exercise is largely important. It energizes you and brings vibrancy back in your life. Team: This is the time that you separate for your team. Do they need something from you so that they can carry on with their work? Strategy: Sit back and look at your strategies. What are the plans that are and aren’t working, the things that you need to tweak? MIF: Most Important First. When you have a lot of things to do or are procrastinating, list them out and do the ones that are most important. In the PM Review: Look back and review the day. Think about how you did your daily tasks and carried on with your strategy. Wins: What are your wins for the day? Did you accomplish what you set out to? It’s a way to compliment ourselves. Gratitude: Realize the things that you are truly, truly grateful for so that you create a chance to expand and grow from there. Plan: What are the wins for tomorrow? What needs to take place for them? Who do I need help from? Unplug: Shut the doors to your office and unplug. Be with your loved ones and rejuvenate yourselves so that you are ready to take on your morning rituals tomorrow. __________________________ ABOUT MEL ABRAHAM Mel is the founder of Business Breakthrough Academy and Thoughtpreneur Academy where he helps entrepreneurs bring their businesses to the world and build the lifestyle that they want.

In this episode, #1 Bestselling Author and Highly Acclaimed business & Entrepreneur Expert, Mel Abraham, talks about negotiation, helps you understand the concept of conflict and shows you how you can go from contention to solution.

TES 083 - Finding Gratitude in Business and Life

In this episode, #1 Bestselling Author and Highly Acclaimed business & Entrepreneur Expert, Mel Abraham, talks about how you can create valuable content. We discuss on what it takes to create content that is perceived as valuable so that you are much more in demand as an influencer. If we don’t get it right, people are going to perceive your content as trivial, it will feel complex and what happens is that your content gets forgotten. But if you get it right, people will realize that it is useful, simple and ultimately it becomes unforgettable. The three principles that you need to consider when doing this: <ol><li>Distinction comes at the end</li> <li>It comes from their world</li> <li>Actionable leads to impact</li> </ol><h2>The Thinking Hierarchy</h2> <ul><li>Essential: At the base level, it has to be essential in their lives. It needs to hit home. Otherwise they are going to perceive your content as junk. So, at the base level, you need to make it informational to make it atleast 1X important.</li> <li>Expansive: The next stage where your content should deepen the thinking on your topic and area of expertise. If that’s not the case, it becomes trivial. We are trying to extend the body of knowledge so that it becomes useful and 2X important.</li> <li>Actionable: Your content should be able to get results. People should be able to use it in their lives. Otherwise, it is not valuable and what we want is to create something that is invaluable so that it is 3X important.</li> <li>Refined: Is the content easily effective? We are trying to move from something that is perceived as complex to something that is simple enough for people to do it. In this way we can move it from 3X to 6X.</li> <li>Distinct: The final stage which is about making your information distinct. We shouldn’t start with it but finally, we want it to stand out. The result that we are looking for is to make it unforgettable instead of being forgotten. The results move to 10X.</li> </ul>__________________________ ABOUT MEL ABRAHAM Mel is the founder of Business Breakthrough Academy and Thoughtpreneur Academy where he helps entrepreneurs bring their businesses to the world and build the lifestyle that they want.

Expansive: The next stage where your content should deepen the thinking on your topic and area of expertise. If that’s not the case, it becomes trivial. We are trying to extend the body of knowledge so that it becomes useful and 2X important. Actionable: Your content should be able to get results. People should be able to use it in their lives. Otherwise, it is not valuable and what we want is to create something that is invaluable so that it is 3X important. Refined: Is the content easily effective? We are trying to move from something that is perceived as complex to something that is simple enough for people to do it. In this way we can move it from 3X to 6X. Distinct: The final stage which is about making your information distinct. We shouldn’t start with it but finally, we want it to stand out. The result that we are looking for is to make it unforgettable instead of being forgotten. The results move to 10X. __________________________ ABOUT MEL ABRAHAM Mel is the founder of Business Breakthrough Academy and Thoughtpreneur Academy where he helps entrepreneurs bring their businesses to the world and build the lifestyle that they want.

TES 082 - How to Create Valuable Content

In this episode, #1 Bestselling Author and Highly Acclaimed business & Entrepreneur Expert, Mel Abraham, talks about how you can brand yourself and create a personal brand so that you become that premium provider who is sought after because what you know makes a big difference in people’s lives. If you don’t get this right, there is going to be tons of friction, you will start to feel isolated and ultimately you will be invisible. If you get it right, you will be in this natural state of flow, you will create a community and you find yourself in demand. So what you need to realize is that deeper thinking leads to valuable impact, your positioning is intentional and you need to have platform obsession. <h2>The Influencer’s Evolution</h2> There are 6 stages to it: <ol><li>Purpose: What is your purpose? You are it. This is really about you. If you don’t get it right, you will find friction in life and if you get it right, you end up with flow.</li> <li>Perspective: This is about what you know. You know it. It will be a drain if you don’t have a process to it and if you do, then it gives you distinction.</li> <li>Positioning: Positioning is about them. They see it. If you don’t do it properly, you are invisible but you will be in demand if you do it in a proper fashion.</li> <li>Platform: They get it, your stuffs and solutions. If it’s not properly done, you will be isolated but if when it’s done right, you’re building a community who will champion you forward.</li> <li>Prosperity: This is about the rewards. We value it. If we don’t know what is going on, then you will be unfulfilled versus being fulfilled when you get it right.</li> <li>Plan: We see it and we need to plan after we get the five mentioned above right. If you don’t plan properly, we get random results. But if we keep the five in mind and make the right plans, we end up with predictable and deliberate results.</li> </ol>__________________________ ABOUT MEL ABRAHAM Mel is the founder of Business Breakthrough Academy and Thoughtpreneur Academy where he helps entrepreneurs bring their businesses to the world and build the lifestyle that they want.

TES 081 - How to Build a Personal Brand

In this episode, #1 Bestselling Author and Highly Acclaimed business & Entrepreneur Expert, Mel Abraham, talks with John Lee Dumas, the founder and host of one of the best podcast in the entrepreneur space, EOFire about three simple keys to his success. About John Lee Dumas John Lee Dumas is the founder and host of EOFire, a top ranked business podcast where he interviews inspiring entrepreneurs daily. Before getting into the podcast space, he served eight years in the army. After he came back, he went through a six year struggle in his search for meaning and making an impact. His journey took him through a law school to corporate finance to real estate. With some wins and some failures, he just wasn’t happy. So, in his search for content he discovered some incredible podcasts which were free, valuable and constant. But he found out that the frequency in which they were published wasn’t enough for him so he started his own podcast Entrepreneur on Fire which is published 7 days a week. As of now, there are almost 1400 episodes published with over a million monthly listeners and 30 million downloads to date. Key Takeaways<ul><li>It really is important to distinguish yourself to make better stuff and be better at what you do.</li><li>You are not going to be awesome from day one. Keep working hard every single day to get a little bit better.</li><li>It is not about the hack or the technology. We have to run the miles.</li><li>Create the solution for your avatar.</li><li>Don’t force out more than you can really get out there in a quality way. People want the quality so work on it.</li></ul>Three Habits for Success Creating (1) free, (2) valuable and (3) consistent content. Biggest Hurdle The Imposter Syndrome due to which high-achieving individuals are terrified and are unable to internalize their accomplishments. Looking Into the Future We need to focus our energy and our greatest impact on specific avatars that we want to serve. If you try to resonate with everybody, you resonate with no one. Just know who you are at your core, know exactly who you want to serve and then just serve that person or those few. Those few people even that one person will grow into a much bigger tribe.
