What's up, everybody? This is Russell. Welcome back to the Marketing Secrets podcast.
Today, I've got a special guest. We just finished an interview.
I'm so excited!
Speaker 4 And this interview is on the back of us doing a three-day event together.
Speaker 4 But during this interview, we talk about three really unique things.
Speaker 4 Number one is how to figure out the right charisma type for you so you don't feel stupid and uncomfortable and inauthentic on camera.
Speaker 4 Number two, we talked about how to tell your stories in a way to get people to have emotion and to move versus just people telling stories that are really boring.
Speaker 4
And number three, how to increase the value of everything you're selling by using a very specific type of story. That's what we covered in this interview.
I hope you guys love it, enjoy it.
Speaker 4 It's a really fun interview with McCall Jones. So let's jump right into the podcast.
Speaker 4 In the last decade, I went from being a startup entrepreneur to selling over a billion dollars in my own products and services online.
Speaker 4 This show is going to show you how to start, grow, and scale a business online. My name is Russell Brunson, and welcome to the Marketing Secrets Podcast.
Speaker 4 All right, guys, I am so excited for what you're about to experience today. We just got done finishing another one of our selling online events.
Speaker 4
And this time, I brought in a special guest speaker over the last three days. And she's amazing.
First off, you're going to find that out. But she brought something really unique.
Speaker 4 You notice, like, I only had one other guest speaker. If you've been to any of the selling online events, not by the way, go get your ticket, sellingonline.com for the next one we do.
Speaker 4 But this is an event we do once a month. It's one of my favorite events ever, teaching people how to create a one-to-many presentation.
Speaker 4 And the guest I brought here spoke, I don't know why, three or four times, four times during the event.
Speaker 4 And a lot of you guys may not even know who she is yet. I want to introduce you to her.
Speaker 4 She's somebody who came into the ClickFunnels world out of Funnel Hacking Live, not knowing she was there to like, you know, she was there helping, supporting one of her, someone in her family who was speaking on stage and then kind of fell into our culture.
Speaker 4 And she's developed this really cool process to help entrepreneurs who are nervous about being on stage or presenting.
Speaker 4 Or maybe they come and you see someone like me or Tony Robbins or Gary Vee and you try to like to be them and you feel like an idiot. How many of you guys feel that way sometimes?
Speaker 4 She created a whole science to teach people how to actually be themselves, be like, I hate that. It's kind of cheesy that be authentic.
Speaker 4
Like people talk about that, but actually how to do that in a really cool way. Her name is Mikall Jones, the founder of Charisma Hacking.
McCall, how are you doing today?
Speaker 5
Hey, thanks for having me. I'm so excited.
I'm excited to have you here.
Speaker 4 It's been so much fun hanging out the last couple of days. Oh, my gosh.
Speaker 5
You guys are not registered for selling online. All the cameras, it was so much fun.
You got to come to the next one.
Speaker 4
It's so fun. Yeah, it's the first deep dive we've ever done on like how to do one in many presentation, the perfect webinar.
I've done little things, but it was the first one.
Speaker 4 But I want to step back first because I've had you now, I have her come to Boise like every month, it seems like for something.
Speaker 5 But the first time I had you come up, you came to the Think and Grow Rich Challenge because I was trying to teach people how you can think and grow rich and the biggest false beliefs people have is they're like well i can't do it because i'm not russell and so you came and you taught people what charisma hacking is and i'd love to lead with that like what is this science that you put together called charisma hacking how does it work how do you discover it and like let's walk to that first yeah of course so charisma hacking basically the foundation of it is that charisma looks different for different people right a lot of times when people think about charisma they think you know it it looks a certain way it's usually somebody that they follow or somebody in their lives they're like that person is charismatic right our entire foundation breaks that.
Speaker 5 It says, well, charisma looks different. And you actually know this, right? Even you and Gary Vee, you're completely different, equally as charismatic, but completely different.
Speaker 5 You use different tactics.
Speaker 5
You're way more charismatic than Gary Vee. That's what I meant, right? But you use different tactics, basically, to get people to pay attention to you.
So yeah, we started this.
Speaker 5 We started this process with just coaching people one-on-one, basically, just teaching them how to be themselves, right?
Speaker 5 I grew up as a performer and I learned how to be in front of people and how to be myself all the the time.
Speaker 5 So I sat next to this woman at that very first funnel hacking live that I went to and she was just complaining how nobody was clicking on her Facebook ads and nobody was staying to the end of her webinar.
Speaker 5
So nobody was even seeing her pitch. And she went on and I had never heard of somebody spending $25,000 on anything at this point.
I was like a voice detector.
Speaker 4 Brand new to the world.
Speaker 5
I was like, oh my gosh, $25,000. I like.
almost fainted.
Speaker 5 She's like, I just spent my last $25,000 on this agency to help me with my Facebook ads and my webinar, but like it's not working, you know, and obviously I was drawing things out of her.
Speaker 5 And I don't know if you can tell, but I like to make friends. So I'm asking her questions and she's like, I'm just not being myself, right?
Speaker 5
Like all these people in my life see the very best version of me. I'm playful.
Like, can't you tell? And I'm like, yeah, you're so playful. She's like, I'm so boring on video.
Speaker 5 And I don't know what's happening.
Speaker 5
Exactly. Like, she turns into a completely different person.
So I thought, right, I was like, oh, you know what? Like, I think I can help her, but I don't know anything about internet marketing.
Speaker 5
Like, I sat there and I was like, ooh, who am I? Like, what am I supposed to do? Right. And then you literally got on stage 10 minutes later.
I'd never heard of you before. The fog goes.
Speaker 5 And I'm like, what is happening? And you get on stage and you said, if you have something that's going to change someone's life, it's your moral responsibility to give it to them. Right.
Speaker 5 In this moment, I feel like I'm struck by lightning because, once again, I had never heard of somebody spending $25,000 on anything. And I'm like, that's a life-changing amount of money.
Speaker 5
Like, if I can help her. I think I have to try, right? So I told her, I was like, I think I can help you.
I'll totally do it for free. Like, I want to see if this works.
Speaker 5 So I started just working with her very intuitively at first, just making her herself, right? She was trying to be very serious, right?
Speaker 5 She saw a lot of women in business that she didn't think she could be taken seriously if she was energetic and fun, right?
Speaker 5 Like all of these women that she was trying to model were very much like this.
Speaker 5 So I started coaching her and four calls in, not only, not only did she come alive on video, but we 12x her click-through rate on our Facebook ads and we 3xed her conversion rate on her webinar.
Speaker 5 And it was all just by making her herself, right? So like this whole concept was born, you know, and every client that came in, I realized that I was coaching them really uniquely, right?
Speaker 5 Because charisma looks different for different people, right? Where she was trying to be serious and she wasn't, I'd have somebody else come on, and they would
Speaker 5 be
Speaker 5
cringy. Like, I don't know if I want to use that word, but they would be like, oh my gosh, this is and I'm like, you gotta stop that.
Like, what's happening, right?
Speaker 5
Because they were charismatic in a different way. So I started developing all these tactics for all these different clients.
And we tried to put it into a group program, right?
Speaker 5 Basically, what happened is people would come in and I was like, how do I make more money and make more impact, right? Like these results are insane that we're getting for people.
Speaker 5
Like, let's bring them all together. And I would coach somebody one-on-one in front of the group.
We're like, that's the best way to do this. I would give them a tactic like, be more serious.
Speaker 5
Like, what are you doing? You're being kind of cringy. And a third of the group would take that tactic.
They'd run with it and amazing things would happen. We're like, this is working.
Speaker 5
You know, a third of the group would do it and nothing would happen. And then about a third of the group would do it and it would bomb.
And we were like, Christmas is not a group thing, man. Like,
Speaker 5
we can't do this at scale, right? We just have to do it one-on-one. And my husband, who is my co-founder and so brilliant.
He's pretty smart. He's so smart.
He's so smart.
Speaker 5 He literally just listened to my coaching calls for like two weeks and he brought in a stack of notes on my desk and he just like slammed them in and he's like, there are patterns here.
Speaker 5 Like there, there's something cool that we could create here. So we took all this data and we basically said, like, what tactics work for somebody like Russell?
Speaker 5 Like, how would I get this person a result if I coached him individually? And what, what tactics would sabotage him? And the more I went through it, the more patterns we saw.
Speaker 5 And it created this system that literally makes you, I also don't like the word authentic, but it makes you authentic in an instant because it shows you exactly like, oh, am I okay if I'm serious?
Speaker 5
Oh, great. I can be myself.
Oh, am I supposed to be more like Russell? Okay, great. It gives you people to model.
And it's helped people be really successful. It's really cool.
Speaker 4
It's funny when I first started speaking. And obviously during the event, I showed clips of me my first time speaking, but I was the same way.
I was like, I saw, this is a business event.
Speaker 4
I need to wear a shirt and a tie. And this is how business people present.
And I do that. And then I would talk too fast people like you talk too fast.
Speaker 4 I'm like, oh, so like I would try to talk slower and then I would get confused because I don't know how to talk, you know, all these different things.
Speaker 4 And it took me years to like feel comfortable in my own skin. And I think what you're doing is like speeding that up for people.
Speaker 4 And I would love to talk about, because there's different, you now have different categories for the different, the different Christmas styles, right?
Speaker 4 And so the only one I remember off the top of my head, because we've been going through a three-day event, the one I remember is my own, which I'm in excite, right? Which is because I'm exciting.
Speaker 4 The way I sell things, I feel excited and I freak out and people get excited with me.
Speaker 4 They're like, I don't even know why I'm excited But Russell's excited Therefore I'm excited So that's what I'm an excite I'm curious those who are watching or listening if you are an excite and when you talk you just get people excited Let me know if that's you because then you're the coolest person in the world
Speaker 5 You have the good ones, right?
Speaker 4 Yeah, but then you can model me right, but the thing you said was so powerful during the event was just the fact that like
Speaker 4 If you're not an excite and you try to be Russell, you're gonna feel awkward you're gonna feel uncomfortable, you know and so what are the like what are all the different categories you can identify because I'd love to have people kind of self-identify oh, that's me or that's me like
Speaker 5 So we think of your charisma as three different categories that come together. It's basically the fun part of you, the empathetic part of you, and the in-charge part of you, right?
Speaker 5 You can think of times when you would use each one of those, right? So when you're on stage and you're like, oh, I'm at the beginning of my presentation, I would use the fun part, right?
Speaker 5 When I'm talking about pain and I'm telling stories, I would use the empathetic part.
Speaker 5 And when I'm pitching, right, I would, yes, bring in both of those, but also I would totally use the in-charge part, right?
Speaker 5 So the first thing we do is we separate it out and we say, okay, one of them is called entertainment, compassion, and authority.
Speaker 5 So once we understand that, we can say, okay, well, well, each one of those now has categories within it, right? You sell a certain way, I sell a different way, right?
Speaker 5 And Alex Hormosi or Gary Vee, they sell a different way than both of us, right? The same way that you get people to connect with you, right? That's compassion.
Speaker 5 So we talk about entertainment, which is what you said.
Speaker 5 You want to think about how you get people to pay attention to you. They are the most different when they're at their highest level of energy.
Speaker 5 So think like when you are freaking out, like what does it look like, right? So the first one we have is called amaze.
Speaker 5
And Dave Woodward, who is the CEO of ClickFunnels, he was the stereotypical amaze. It all feels very bright, right? Jamie Carina.
Yeah, I get chills, right? It feels very bright.
Speaker 5
It feels very bubbly, almost whimsical. Then we have Excite, which is you, right? Which is very like, oh my gosh, it's very intense.
Yeah, I'm so excited. Right.
The third one is Charm.
Speaker 5 So if you think of like a Ryan Reynolds character, the way that he gets people to pay attention to him is he's very playful, right? It's all the witty jokes and the playful banter like that.
Speaker 5 Then we have Perform, which is like me. I don't know if you notice as we're going through, my eyebrows will move up and down so many times, right?
Speaker 5 It's all very very theatrical for sure and then we have impress which is more like a brene brown right brene brown would really get your attention by like leaning into the words things like that and then we have roar which is like garyvee uh mark cuban's also a roar where like the way they get attention tony robbins right they literally roar right so as you think about it you're like okay if i get people to pay attention to me like this oh i'm probably like a russell right if
Speaker 5 If that's your first instinct when something exciting happens, you're probably like a Dave Woodward or like a Lynn Manuel Miranda, right?
Speaker 5 Or a Paul Rudd, which like, amaze right if all of a sudden right you get put into a situation you start this playful witty banter you're probably a charm like ryan reynolds if all of a sudden your eyebrows move more than they should right everything feels very theatrical like a robin williams you're a performer like me if when you need people to pay attention this is your first instinct you're probably an impress and then if when you talk even at a lower level it kind of sounds like this right you're probably a roar right so we go through that and we just say well which one are you and then who are the people who have the same category as you uh so that you you can model them right we also have compassion we also have authority we can go into those too if you want but the the entertainment ones are the easiest ones to see of saying like okay i totally get that yeah let's do all the other ones that'd be cool yeah let's do it okay cool uh I'll talk about my thing.
Speaker 5 Fine. So when we get to compassion, right, remember that they all work together, right? So when we get to compassion, there are three different compassion styles.
Speaker 5 Once again, this is the empathetic part of your charisma, right? So we have steady, we have fix, and we have mirror.
Speaker 5 So if you imagine you have been stabbed in the leg and you have three friends with you and they all deeply care about you, right? Equal levels, right?
Speaker 5 There's no good and bad, only right and wrong for every person, right? And that's super important. So we say, okay, they all care about me, but they're all going to react to you in a different way.
Speaker 5
So a steady, you get stabbed in the leg with the knife. And a steady is like, oh my gosh, I'm going to hold your hand.
I'm going to make sure that you're okay, right?
Speaker 5
It's very soft and emotions focused. A fix goes up to you and they're like, you got stabbed in the leg.
That knife is insane. You're definitely responding appropriately, right?
Speaker 5 They're very analytical and they're very context-based. And then mirror is me, which is very reactions-based, right?
Speaker 5 It's all about like the facial expressions and making sure that you're matching intensity.
Speaker 5 So as we look at it, we think that steadies are internal pain, fixes are external pain, like a behavior or situation.
Speaker 5 And a mirror kind of does both of those things, but mostly they think in like thoughts and inner dialogue, right? So I use this example.
Speaker 5 My sister-in-law, Catherine, has another one of my sister-in-laws, Emily, who lives with her who has Lyme disease. And Emily, the Lyme disease is brutal.
Speaker 5 I don't know if you've had any experiences with that, but like it's pretty brutal for Emily specifically. And
Speaker 5 Emily sometimes is just, she's going through a lot. So people will call Catherine to update her on Emily, right? They're like, what, how's Emily today, right? What's she going through?
Speaker 5 This is very similar because our audience members or our customers are like Emily and we are like Catherine. That will come in in a minute, right? So if we think, okay, Emily's on the couch.
Speaker 5
She feels like she's dying. She's at a level 10 pain.
Somebody calls Catherine and say, how's Emily, right?
Speaker 5 If Catherine says, oh, you know, she's not doing very good, but she's okay, right? Emily's gonna be like, I'm literally dying on the couch, right?
Speaker 5 So if Catherine, as a steady who's soft and emotions focused, says Emily really feels really depressed, she feels really sad, right? All these things happening in her body, right?
Speaker 5 Oh man, she's really discouraged today, right? She would be a study. If somebody called Catherine and they said, update me on Emily and she was a fix, she would give events.
Speaker 5 She would say, you know, Emily hasn't gotten out of bed till three, right? She had a really hard time getting up last night, right? She hasn't slept in three days. There are all these external things.
Speaker 5 If she was a mirror, right, then people that called her to update them on Emily, she would be like, oh my gosh, Emily is dying, right? It would be all about the reactions.
Speaker 5 So if you think of all three of those, it depends on the intensity level of pain that the person feels, how much they describe it, basically. Does that make sense?
Speaker 5 So we have entertainment, right? We have compassion, which mostly is in storytelling, right? You have to make sure you know it in storytelling. And then we have our authority, authority, right?
Speaker 5
Our authority style is how we move people to action. So you focus on frameworks.
You're what's called a light or light the path. Your whole job is light the path.
Speaker 5
You can convince somebody, like, oh my gosh, get on this bus. If you get on this bus, you're going to get to where you want to go, right? Use the path, use the framework.
I'm a lift.
Speaker 5
So I say, okay, I'm going to lift the person. I think my client should be in the driver's seat.
I should be in the passenger seat.
Speaker 5 I'm going to give them directions, but I'm going to show them that they are capable of succeeding. It's very like warm authority.
Speaker 5 And then Alex Herbosi or Gary Vee or Mark Cuban and Tony tony robbins they are all lead authority so they say lead the way so they say i'm in the driver's seat right i'm just i know all the shortcuts i just need you to get in the car right and here we go right so they feel very like geeky obsessed like oh my gosh this is so amazing process focused is light lift is very warm and saying like okay like we got this and a lead is very direct they're very straightforward and they're like no let's move forward i'm in the driver's seat I said epiphany for myself.
Speaker 4
I've been working on these social things and I've been trying to do the Mark Cuban, like like the leader one. That's not me.
Why did you tell me this like a month ago?
Speaker 4
That would save me so many hippies. So for me, so walk back in mind.
So I'm the one that's showing the, the sliding the way.
Speaker 4 So if I'm doing a YouTube video teaching a process, it's not like, don't be showing the thing. It's
Speaker 5 so you said something to me.
Speaker 5 I don't know if it's Lazarus. I've been up here a lot in the last little bit, but you said something to me where you said, the framework is the savior, right? Never be the savior.
Speaker 5 And your frameworks, the more you geek out about the process, the more excited other other people get about the process, right? The geekiness is the thing that moves people in your case, right?
Speaker 5 So, if you, any process that you're talking about, right? So, you obsess over the thing and it shines the light on the path for sure.
Speaker 4
Whoa, okay. That just shifted so many things in my head.
So, thank you for that.
Speaker 5 Yeah, it's all about what's the start.
Speaker 4
Yeah. I hope all you guys listening to this guy, like, as she was going through, I know it's a lot of stuff.
This is like
Speaker 4
five years of your life putting into this whole framework. That's all the core parts of the framework.
Like, understanding where you fit is the key, though, right?
Speaker 4 Because then again, you can then model other people who are similar or you can see like, and every, everyone's got different strengths and weaknesses, right?
Speaker 4 There's things of like, okay, because I'm this, this is really positive, but sometimes it's negative. And if you know that, it can protect you as well, right?
Speaker 5 Yeah, the entire point of charisma hacking is first, charisma looks different for different people. And second, there are no good or bad charisma styles, only right and wrong for every person, right?
Speaker 5 So when you use the right one, amazing things happen.
Speaker 4 And just when you use the wrong one, that's when you look cringy or awkward or inauthentic or you, you know, look inexperienced things like that or condescending like all these things happen especially when people get on camera or on stage just because you're using the wrong one like that's it can i give an example that that you told me actually so excited um so i was working on a uh a funnel and um i wanted to nail it was very it was a very important one to me right so i wanted to nail it so i pre-scripted out the vsl which i don't normally do normally normally i have a i have a direction i'm going but this time i scripted it out i was trying to learn the lines and memorize it and i remember filming it like we filmed a thousand times so i can nail the the lines and say them correctly and they if you read them the copy was like flawless like it was like the perfect thing for me to say but then when I was doing it I was trying to remember it I was doing the things and the video was beautiful like looked awesome great on the page everything but it wasn't converting that well I didn't tell I didn't tell anybody this and I don't know if you remember this you messaged me and you're like hey I saw the video on the page and you are out of your Christmas type
Speaker 4 How's it how's it converting for you? And I was like, how does she know? I was like, oh, it's been pretty good. What do you, what are you talking about?
Speaker 4
You're like, well, normally you're this way and you're doing this on the thing. And you showed me a whole video, like breaking it down.
I was like, oh my gosh, like, I had no idea.
Speaker 4
Like, I have the best copy, the best script, like, everything I could dream of. Like, I spent a lot of time writing that script, make it flawless.
All the words, all the beats, all everything.
Speaker 4 But because I performed it the wrong way, it didn't convert well, right? And I didn't even know it.
Speaker 4 Like, because for me, it's just like I was thought I was just performing, like, I was just doing the script, right? The words are the most important thing.
Speaker 4 And by not doing it correctly, like my way, then that's what messed it up. Yeah, I think
Speaker 5 this might blow your mind.
Speaker 5 Why not?
Speaker 5 A lot of times, people think charisma is energy, right? And it's really what messes people up because charisma is actually not energy. Charisma is emotions, right?
Speaker 5 So a lot of times what happens is not only are people like choosing the wrong charisma type or wrong charisma style, but then when it's not working, they think, well, the thing I need is just more energy.
Speaker 5 You know what I mean? And with this ad, I don't know if you remember which ad it was, but with this ad, you had a lot of energy and it was fantastic.
Speaker 5
So that's where most people get tripped up because they're like, it has energy. The copy's good.
Like, I could not add more energy to this. I don't know what's off, right?
Speaker 5 And what they don't realize is that, oh, it's, it's the wrong kind of energy and it makes it not work emotionally, right?
Speaker 5 Your emotions control your charisma, and then your charisma controls other people's emotions, right? So if the emotion is off, it can start to look like that, right?
Speaker 5 Really high energy, because I remember it was high energy, great copy was awesome, but it just felt, it felt like maybe a little bit aggressive, or it felt things that you just aren't.
Speaker 4 My face, I think a lot of it was like, normally I'm excited, like you can see my face, like it's all, and and like, I was just, I was going through the lines saying it, but I'm not like, you know, I'm actually excited about something.
Speaker 4 I'm like freaking out, you know, and I think people couldn't feel that or see that.
Speaker 4 Or anyway, that was, that was fascinating for me to see that, especially someone who I've been doing this long, you know, I've been doing this for a long, long time and I still miss it sometimes.
Speaker 5 Yeah, I think it's really interesting too. I think, um, so we have like audience data based on this of like when you're out of your styles, what happens?
Speaker 5 So like when you model the wrong person, like, how are you perceived, right? So in this very specific ad, first off, the audacity of me to be like, hey, how's your ad ad converting?
Speaker 5
All your charisma woof. Like that is so rude.
First off, so I apologize.
Speaker 5 But second, right, you as an excite, all you were trying to do in that video is you were trying to be more like Tony Robbins, right? You were trying to be more like a roar.
Speaker 5 And every excite, we have these things called false face consequence keys, but every single excite, every person in your position who would model. Tony Robbins would look the exact same way.
Speaker 5 It's just a little bit aggressive or abrasive, not bad necessarily, right? High energy, amazing, but just a little bit sharper than you are naturally, right? It just looks a little bit off.
Speaker 5
And audiences can feel it. They also don't know why, by the way.
Nobody right now watches the video and thinks, oh my gosh, that person's totally out of their charisma style.
Speaker 5
Someday, someday it'll be awesome. But they just think, something's just a little off, right? Your charisma controls their emotions.
So they just think like, I'm not feeling it. And they leave, right?
Speaker 5 That's the drop-off rates that happen.
Speaker 4 Such an interesting...
Speaker 4
Interesting thing. It's cool because you came into our world and you brought something so unique, right? Because you are, you're a performer, you're an actor, you're all sorts of stuff.
Crazy.
Speaker 4 Like, I always tell my friends, like, my friend McCalla, she was in high school musical part too. And they're like, cool, because that's such a big, like, it's a, it's a legit movie versus, you know,
Speaker 4 but you were able to bring that, like the world you brought over there and apply it to the entrepreneur space. And again, it's helped me, it's helped so many other people.
Speaker 4
Like, that's why you've spoken like 2,500 times. All right.
Because, like, I see everyone struggles with that, right? So many people come to our world and they want to perform.
Speaker 4
They want to be able to speak. They want to be able to sell.
And then they get upstage or get on a stage or, you know, virtual stage or Facebook Live. And they're just, they feel so uncomfortable.
Speaker 4 And it's just like ah and it's funny I always tell people that like I tell people you publish every single day for a year and a year from now you'll be financially free and the reason is because the the thought is you keep doing eventually until you actually start doing it the way you would right it's like the first time I'm very nervous hi I'm live and the second time a little less and then eventually it's just like you get into yourself but if you can figure out how to do it faster like knowing like okay what like what am I actually and you guys have a do you still have a quiz that helps people figure out what they do 100 or you like to pitch the quiz so people okay fine if you go to charisma.style not dot com charisma dot
Speaker 5
there's no opt-in, no nothing. It's just we use it for all of our events.
Yeah, it'll tell you what your charisma styles are.
Speaker 4
That's really cool. That way, then you know who to model.
And like, don't model Russell because you'll feel stupid or model so, yeah, whatever it, whatever it might be.
Speaker 5 Can I simplify it for a minute too?
Speaker 5 So we teach charisma styles, right? And we say, like, you have to be yourself, right? That's basically the premise of charisma styles. You can do it if you are yourself.
Speaker 5 There's a second framework that we teach that's so simple that actually helps people use charisma styles. And it's just what we call the charisma loop, right?
Speaker 5 So we say, okay, there are four steps to the charisma loop. You, at your very best, are your center, right? You're on center.
Speaker 5
Anytime you are doing something like you did in the ad, just when you are inauthentic or you look and you're like, oh, something's off. I hate this.
You're not on center. You are off.
center, right?
Speaker 5 Every single time that happens, you don't do that for no reason. It's happened because it's caused by a trigger, right?
Speaker 5
So we have like a little arrow that always points to it where you think, oh my gosh, I'm too much. I'm too excitable.
So I'm going to take my excitement out and be a little bit less than that.
Speaker 5 And suddenly you're off center. Or for me, if my center is really goofy, I am told, or I believe, or something like, oh, I'm too goofy.
Speaker 5 So I take the goofy out and suddenly I'm off center, which remember, audiences can always tell when you're off center, even though they don't say you're out of your Christmas styles, right?
Speaker 5 We just remove something. And then from there, we just say, oh, well, what's the bridge? What's the bridge to get from off center back to center?
Speaker 5 So if we know who we are, right, this is like the process of finding your voice where people are watching it and they're getting there with reps. We just shortcut the process, right?
Speaker 5 But they're getting there with reps where they say, Who am I? Who am I actually?
Speaker 5 Right, with your charisma styles, or even we have people just like make a list of things that are attributes of themselves.
Speaker 5 Once they know who they are, they say, wait, people like me in real life, right? This false belief that I have that I can't do this is actually wrong.
Speaker 5 Or they're like, people won't like me because people already like me, right? Then when they find their off-center and they say, okay, I'm just gonna watch this video.
Speaker 5
And instead of being like, stupid, stupid, it's off. They just find one thing that is missing, right? They're like, oh, I'm goofy.
The goofy's not there. Oh, wow.
What do I think caused that goofy?
Speaker 5 Oh, I think I'm being self-conscious because I just watched Brene Brown. She wasn't goofy, right? Oh, what do I do? And then we get back to the center by saying, like, I actually am enough.
Speaker 5 Let me find somebody just like me who's goofy that I think is really smart, that I think is crushing it. And it'll bring me back to my center, right?
Speaker 5 It's just all about knowing who you are and knowing what to do with the reps is the thing that shortcuts the whole process.
Speaker 4 Thinking back about my journey on this, like learning how to speak. And I remember, and I still get this today all the time, like, Russell, you talk too fast.
Speaker 4
Russell, you're slurring slurring your words, Russell. And like, people tell me that.
And like, for a long time, it like, it froze me up. I'm like, I don't want to do this.
Speaker 4 And I remember going to events where I was learning how to speak initially. I was in my shirt and tie and I was on stage doing it.
Speaker 4 And a lot of events back then, they would have the audience give feedback on the speakers, right? And they'd give you at the end, it's a gift, like, here's your speaker feedback for him.
Speaker 4
I'm like, oh, thanks. So I'd get those, go to the hotel room, I'm reading them.
I'm just crying. Like, Russell talks too fast.
Speaker 4 I understand one-third of the words he was saying, you know, just like ripping on me. And I was just like, these people hate me.
Speaker 4 Because what they do is people see something and they want to critique it, right and a lot of times they're critiquing the thing that makes you magic because they don't talk too fast and like whatever and so for me it was always hard so then I would try to talk slower and I would try to enunciate my words clear but then I lose the excite right because I cannot be excited talking I gotta be like this freaking out to bring the me back into it right and then the thing that freed me was actually Dan Kennedy.
Speaker 4 So Dan Kennedy,
Speaker 4 I was listening to one of his public speaking courses or something like that, and he told a story about
Speaker 4 someone had asked him like, you know,
Speaker 4 what he does with the feedback forms after he speaks. And he's like, oh, he's like, I take them all and I walk over to the garbage can, I throw them in.
Speaker 4 He's like, the only thing that matters to me are the people if they voted with their credit cards or nothing. That's the only opinion I care about is if they bought with their credit card.
Speaker 4
And when he said that, I was like, so free. I'm like, I don't care if I talk to, I talk too fast.
I get it. But I'm not going to stop.
I'm going to be me.
Speaker 4
And then if I sell more than the other people, then I actually won. Like, that's, I don't want their feedback.
I want their money, right? That's what we're going for.
Speaker 4
And so then that became the thing. And I remember watching speakers, they all get out of speaker forms.
I would would start throwing mine away. And then I would look at the order forms.
Speaker 4
My order forms bigger. And then I was like, okay, I can lean into that.
Then I felt comfortable. And then now when people all time and they're like, Russell, you talk fast.
I know, I know.
Speaker 4 I'm going to try to slow down, but I don't. I don't want to, you know? It's like Tony Robbins.
Speaker 4 If you guys don't know, if you ever have Tony speak at one of your events, the room has to be, I think, 63 degrees before he'll speak. And at a hotel, you can't, hotels don't go to 63.
Speaker 4
So we have to pay an extra like 50 or 60 grand to have an external cooling thing put outside. So before he speaks, everyone clears for lunch.
We have this air pumped into the room to cool it down.
Speaker 5 and so it's funny when you see tonight on stage there he'll almost always and they're like why is it so cold and you're someone turn the turn the heat back on just like get everyone to like stop saying that you know yeah he like he forced it to be that temperature when you showed up you know what i mean it's gonna be like oh i'm gonna try to talk slower for you guys because i really want to it's like i don't never gonna try to slow down so one of my very favorite things that you have said i have watched like every single one of your videos because i just i watch everything you do twice the first one is for the content and the second one's for the charisma right because you're so good at what you do that sometimes i know you know most of what you do but sometimes I watch it and I'm like I don't know if he knows what he's doing like this is incredible and then I just steal it and then I send you a boxer and I'm like did you know you just did this it's crazy right but you're um
Speaker 5 you're talking fast you're like oh I'm talking so fast because I'm excited and when I get excited I talk faster right and it makes people feel like they're coming along the journey with you the other thing too is like too fast it's like too fast for who you know what i mean it's like i the first time i saw it i didn't think you were talking too fast.
Speaker 5 It, the speed, because you're in excitement the speed increased the energy, increased the emotions, right? And all the people who are voting with their credit card are agreeing.
Speaker 5
They're like, no, I like it fast. I like it fast.
It makes it feel like it's alive.
Speaker 5 Like every single thing that you do has like this aliveness about it that would be completely taken away if you had to talk slow.
Speaker 4 And Melissa said, I did talk slowly when I sold and somebody signed up and they bought my course and said the members area, I'm Patrick Norman Russell.
Speaker 4 And they're like, oh, and they freak out and they want want to read the money back. Like, I want to offend people with my charisma up front so that the people
Speaker 4 who want to learn from me are going to show up and the other ones are gone, right?
Speaker 5 100%. I love it.
Speaker 1

Speaker 4 So, okay, I want to switch a little bit. So, this event that you've been focusing on with me for the last
Speaker 4
three days is a selling online event. And so, yes, we talked about charisma, but we started shifting some other things.
That's one of the reasons why I wanted you here for this.
Speaker 4 And I'm sure, hopefully, you'll be back for the next one. So those who, if you missed this one, come back to sellingonline.com, go get your tickets.
Speaker 4 It's the cheapest hundred bucks you'll ever spend for a three-day event with us going deep into this. But
Speaker 4 this came from, obviously, your...
Speaker 4 Your core business is doing the charisma stuff, but then you're also speaking and selling and doing your own things, right?
Speaker 4 And so you messaged me a couple times like, again, Russell, I just watched a number of your presentations. Girazzed, you did this, like all these different things.
Speaker 4 I i would love to talk about that just some of the things that that you were aware of that people
Speaker 4 that i missed a lot of time other people were missing that we can talk about just give people ideas of like what you were teaching about during selling line because you went for four presentations being like no russell said this but he don't know that he did this let me and you broke it down to the point where i was like that is insane like i didn't even know i was doing that so cool so yeah i'd love to talk about some of the the patterns and things you saw and i guess how you honestly how you discovered them yeah totally i so the way that i think about charisma once again is just like emotions right so the thing i pay attention to the most like if anybody anybody wanted to charisma hack you, you just look at what you're making people feel and then how you're doing it, right?
Speaker 5 And that was every single presentation were just different ways that you were making people feel stuff. Me specifically, right?
Speaker 5 Me watching it and being like, why do I want to throw my credit card in his face right now? How can I make other people throw credit cards in my face right now? Right.
Speaker 5 So two of the presentations that I gave were all about these four emotions that you make people feel every presentation. And there were things that I was leaving out.
Speaker 5 And then as soon as I saw you do it, I realized not only was I leaving them out, but all my clients were leaving leaving them out too, or we do them in the wrong order or all these things.
Speaker 5 So every single presentation, you made people feel like, I need this, I want this, I can do this, and this is valuable. You would always do it.
Speaker 5 The specific ways that you would do it, right, going into like the specific tactics. So the first thing that we talked about was like the way that you tell an epiphany bridge.
Speaker 5 You lay it out so perfectly that the only thing that people are missing is the charisma, right? But it's like stories are all about emotion.
Speaker 5 And if your charisma doesn't match, then you're not going to make them feel the emotion. And then your stories are empty, right?
Speaker 5 So when you tell your epiphany bridge story, right, there are very specific emotional charisma things that you do, right? So the first one we call fear the dinosaur, right?
Speaker 5 You want to imagine that somebody is chasing or a dinosaur is chasing one of your customers, right? So the first thing you really do is you dive into pain, right? If somebody shows up, right?
Speaker 5 If somebody just happens to be like, I'm going to sign up for this thing, I didn't even read the copy, whatever, in the first like 10 minutes of any presentation you're giving, all of a sudden somebody thinks, whoa, I am in pain that I didn't even know I was in.
Speaker 5 Like, am I standing in a swamp, right? Am I actually being chased by a dinosaur? You make them see the pain first, right? And you do that by diving into that pain.
Speaker 5 A lot of times people will minimize the pain or they'll skip it altogether, right? The next thing you do is we call it visualize the beach.
Speaker 5 You really, really, really paint out the picture of what it looks like to succeed, right? With ways that you have, with ways that your clients have, right?
Speaker 5 And then the last one is called baby proof the bridge, where you make people feel like I can do this, right?
Speaker 5 The epiphany bridge that they're supposed to cross is like, oh yeah, okay, that's the thing that's going to change everything.
Speaker 5 But people have to feel like, oh, I could actually take those steps and I could succeed with that.
Speaker 5 So every single thing that you're doing is just, you're diving into the emotions in really specific ways, right?
Speaker 5 You're, you are describing the emotions and then you're matching the intensity of those emotions, right? Everything that you do, we use this B-E-S-T framework.
Speaker 5 So if you're trying to tell a story, right, you have to make sure that you hit four points. If you don't hit these four points, you're not diving into the emotion enough, right? It's B E S T.
Speaker 5 So it's behavior, right? When they were in pain, what were they doing?
Speaker 5
E is emotions. When they were in pain, what did they feel? S is situation.
When they were in pain, what was happening? And then T is thoughts. When they were in pain, what were they thinking? Right.
Speaker 5 The exact same thing is true for the visualize the beach or like, what do they actually want? What do they want to be able to do? Right. B, behavior.
Speaker 5 What do they want to be able to feel right what do they want to actually happen and then what do they want to be able to think you do this all the time and you do it in pitching you do it in every story that you tell we focus really heavily on the epiphany bridge but your storytelling is so awesome and i don't know if you know how awesome it is but like tanner and i have heard you tell these stories before right even at selling online and we're like taking notes and we're just like oh my gosh like this is crazy right you get new ahas because of how you can make people feel things i truly think it's i know sales is your number one superpower superpower, but I think the reason why is because you are a master of emotions, right?
Speaker 5 You make people feel things. I saw this happen at Funnel Hacking Live too, where anytime there was like a technical presentation, right?
Speaker 5 The last Funnel Hacking Live, they were talking about the new amazing thing that's coming to ClickFunnels 2.0 called frameworks, right? And they would dive in and they'd be like, okay, like
Speaker 5 technical, technical, which like you need, right? They're explaining something, but then you would sense it and you'd be like, are you guys seeing this? If he drops the line, are you guys seeing this?
Speaker 5 You're about to see it.
Speaker 5 Insert story exactly insert story insert emotion yeah right and it was like all of a sudden like technical technical which we need right they did an awesome job but like technical technical technical are you guys seeing this and you're like am i seeing it what am i missing yeah exactly it's like what am i missing you just help people focus on things right so yeah so with the emotions you got to frame out the pain you got to make sure that it's intense it's the same thing with emily if you're like you know like this person it was kind of sad and then this happened right they're gonna be like that's not me right she's gonna feel completely invalidated laying on the couch as Catherine saying, oh my gosh, like, she's fine.
Speaker 5
And she's like, I'm dying. Right.
So you just match the intensity really well. The same thing as desires, right?
Speaker 5 A lot of people feel like talking about like what they've accomplished may feel like bragging when you do it in such a way that people can imagine themselves in your shoes, right?
Speaker 5 You're excited about it, so they're excited about it. It's really cool.
Speaker 4 It's cool. I actually know how I learned this.
Speaker 5 Let me tell you.
Speaker 5 Oh my gosh.
Speaker 4 You may have seen this video, but maybe not. So,
Speaker 4 man, this is, if I rewind, this is pre-click funnels. I would, I was in the spot where I was like burned out of my business, ready to like quit and everything.
Speaker 4 And my buddy Dagon Smith reached out to me. Dagon,
Speaker 4
it kills me that he hasn't been online for last like decades. No one, no one knows who he is, but one of the best storytellers ever.
And he kind of re-sparked my excitement.
Speaker 4 We started calling each other on the phone, talking about stuff. And I remember he started talking about story selling initially, and he told me something really cool.
Speaker 4 He's like, when most people tell a story, they talk about the facts, right? And he's like, if you want to become a good storyteller, he's like, watch how film does it, right?
Speaker 4 Or watch how really good books are.
Speaker 4 He's like, if someone's a really good, like the best authors, authors like let's say you know uh Harry Potter or whatever like the best books he's like they'll spend like 20 30 pages describing the scene what it looks like and the smell and the mustiness and the da da da so like you have the context and then you walk in the room and it's always like and then the people saw and talked it's like what were they thinking what were they feeling what was you know and he's like you read those books and it's like that because of the way they describe everything it puts you in a situation and now they're 25 30 pages in and then they have the one line they need to deliver but all that pre-work to get there right and he said in film you watch it same thing like you you know they they show the scene and the colors and the music and
Speaker 4 all this feeling, right? In fact, he told me, he's like, if you watch X-Men, he's like, watch this scene in X-Men where Magneto's in the Nazi concentration camp as a little kid.
Speaker 4 Like, watch the feeling on someone's face, right? And so I remember I watched it. In fact, I've showed it at a bunch of events.
Speaker 4 that clip but you watch it and you watch like the pain in their face and their eyes and the things right now he's like no when you tell your stories don't just tell the facts he's like you have to paint that whole thing and so that's how i learned it from him so i started coming in i'm like okay let me tell this story and first thing i'm thinking is like the situation.
Speaker 4
Like I need to put context. So I'm like, I was, you know, my wife and I, we had the very first house we ever had.
It was this blue duplex with purple doors.
Speaker 4
It was 450 bucks a month, but it was the crazy. It was like the only thing we could afford at the time.
It was one bedroom. It's so good.
So I'm like setting the scene, right?
Speaker 4 Then I come in and it's like, you know, when I was sitting there, and then you said, the best is it's
Speaker 5
behavior, emotion, situation, thoughts. Okay.
Yeah.
Speaker 4
So situation. Yeah.
So for me, it's motion thoughts ones I focus on a lot. So situation.
So, yeah, the motion. So like, I'm not saying my wife and I had a conversation instead.
Speaker 4
I'm like, I was so nervous to tell her this. Like, I remember sitting there, my palms were sweating.
I had like this pit in my stomach growing. You just felt that before?
Speaker 4
It's like you had that sickness. And so, I started explaining how I was feeling.
And then, by default, we're humans, so we have empathetic humans, right?
Speaker 4 So, I start telling them I'm feeling, and instantly, you start feeling that, right? And so, you start feeling that. And then, how was I thinking? I was thinking about this, and what is this?
Speaker 4 And then I take them down the rabbit trail of like what my thoughts.
Speaker 4 And they're like, That's and then where I'm going, they start thinking the same thing, and all of a sudden, within a few minutes, like they're in the situation, and like they're having this weird situation happening.
Speaker 4 Yeah, yeah, and then I tell the story, and then my goal always is never to tell them like, here's the epiphany and the epiphany I had was this, is to tell them the story and then leave it off and then hope that they get the same epiphany I had.
Speaker 4 That's that's the big secret, right? But it's thinking about things that happen.
Speaker 4 You're telling stories, it's not just the facts, it's like telling it in a way that creates the context that puts them in their awesome sense, like they're experiencing with you.
Speaker 5
And so it's literally just all about emotions, right? It's all emotions. It's so good.
Yeah. I know.
I break down every single thing that you do always.
Speaker 5 So yeah, it's like even the actions like how you paint the scene They do this in sign language a lot where like they actually frame out where things are and I've heard you talk about this before where like if it's the table in the back of the room and you keep going back to the same thing, right?
Speaker 5 But like framing out the scene you'll be like oh, and it was like over here like so people can actually see it. Yeah, it's a this is such a fun game.
Speaker 4 No you love it.
Speaker 4 So fun like we're making movies, but we're not but it's like it's uh it's it's so cool. Okay.
Speaker 4 Um and one last thing you talked about this today actually uh during the selling online event, which is so cool. So again, again, not that we're pitching this, but you guys should totally be here.
Speaker 4 It's like the best thing we do.
Speaker 5
We are absolutely pitching this. It's going to change your life.
Come to it. 100%.
Speaker 4
It's so cool. So during the event, I teach people the perfect webinar.
I teach it anyway. I'm super proud of myself.
Speaker 4 I think I have the most simple ever where it's like, it's like people are like, I finally understand it, right? It was super simple. And then I talked about the stack and the clothes.
Speaker 4
Like, here's, here's the offer, and here's what you do. And walk through everything.
And then,
Speaker 4 and then I had you come on stage and teach a process.
Speaker 4 And it's fun because I can't remember if it was a year ago, six months ago, when you messaged me, like, Russell, do you realize every single time you do stack clothes, you do the exact same thing?
Speaker 4 I was like, no, like, you're like, yeah, I just watched, I can't remember, I watched like 100 of you pitching and every single time you do the same thing. Are you aware of this? I'm like, no, I'm not.
Speaker 4 What is it? And you told me. And I know that it was like a long session during the event, but we could give people a glimpse of what that is.
Speaker 4 Cause I think that they understand that it's one of the things that makes.
Speaker 4 the selling part of that presentation actually fun as opposed to like the scary thing where now I have to sell something and freaks people out.
Speaker 5 Yeah, I literally, so I did this because I needed it for myself. Like I feel like I'm a pretty charismatic person, hence the name charisma hacking, right? But I just kept getting awkward, right?
Speaker 5 And the stack for me felt really repetitive and it just felt boring, right? And I just, I know that something magical happens when you start to pitch. So I was just looking for why, right?
Speaker 5
Like my stuff wasn't converting like I wanted. And I was like, Russell's does.
Like, what am I going to look for? So I just watched.
Speaker 5 all of your videos and I literally was like, okay, or all of your pitches and I just looked for the magic sauce of like, what is he doing that I am not doing?
Speaker 5 Because I'm following, I'm following the framework, right? What am I missing? And you kept doing this thing.
Speaker 5 Every item of your stack, you would add the same kind of story where, you know, I had heard stories sell, right? You say that a lot, right?
Speaker 5
A lot of people say that, but it was the first time it really clicked for me of like, oh, if you tell the right story, it's like, it makes selling fun. And it actually doesn't feel like.
pitchy.
Speaker 5
It feels the opposite. So I call it replication cost stories.
It's, oh my gosh, it's just, it's what would be the cost of somebody trying to replicate your offer without you.
Speaker 5 It, it's also like, we're always trying to make our things look valuable, right? Obviously, Obviously, if you're pitching something, you want people to think that it's really valuable.
Speaker 5 But with the stories that you are telling, it's the reason why people wanted your thing, right?
Speaker 5 So before you would get to every single item of your stack, you would introduce it with a story that walked through one of four things. So the first one is trial and error.
Speaker 5 So you'd be like, oh my gosh, like, okay, you know, for this item, we have, you know, the the TV, right? And it's like, in order to build this TV, I went through trial and error.
Speaker 5 I bought 29 million different TVs before I found the one that would play this thing exactly the way that I wanted to, right?
Speaker 5 So it's basically like seeding in their mind, like, if you want to skip and not have to buy all those TVs, right? You should just buy my thing, right? So trial and error. The next one is
Speaker 5 time and effort, right? And it's like, how much time or effort have you actually put in and invested in your own products, right? The next one is money invested. And then the
Speaker 5 final one is unique authority and experience.
Speaker 5 So trial and error, the first, the time that you did it at selling online, it's like, I have done the perfect webinar or I've done this many selling presentations and I've bombed this many times, right?
Speaker 5
And they're like, oh. And you're like, but for me to replicate it, I have to bomb that many times.
You have to bomb that many times, you know?
Speaker 5 And then time and effort, you were like, okay, you know, I have, I've gathered every single tactic under the sun for you in one very specific area, right?
Speaker 5 So that you don't have to spend the time and effort to go and replicate all those things. Or you're like, listen, I'm going to give you two decades of stuff in one day, right?
Speaker 5
You just need 20 years of experience. Isn't that easy? Right.
And then with money invested, my very favorite one that you've done, there's two of them.
Speaker 5 So the first one, you spent a million and a half dollars, which is crazy on a book to give it to people for free, right?
Speaker 5 Where people are like, oh, I could either spend a million and a half dollars or I could sign up for this thing and get it from Russell. Right.
Speaker 5 The next one you did was Giroux, right? You did this in your, it was one funnel away challenge. And you were like, oh man, like, you know, I went to the guy for that owned Giroux and I was like, hey,
Speaker 5 can you give it to my people for free? And he was like, no, which makes sense because it was a business, right? And you're like, oh, and then there were like licenses that were like $200 to $300,
Speaker 5
which in their minds, they're like, oh, okay, I'd have to pay for this on my own, $200 to $300. And you're like, he wouldn't give it to anybody for free.
So I bought the company.
Speaker 5 I bought the company and I'm going to give it to you guys for free.
Speaker 5 So now not only are they like, oh, okay, the license to buy it myself was two to three hundred dollars, or I'd have to buy the company now because Russell owns it, or he's going to give it to me for free, right?
Speaker 5 And the last one is unique authority. So this is usually things that you've done that nobody else has done, right?
Speaker 5 You've broken a world record record for selling online in 90 minutes, which is insane, right? You're New York Times best-selling author.
Speaker 4 You were on high school musical part two.
Speaker 5
Nobody else can do it. She was on high school musical, right? So it's all these different things.
So each stack item needs one replication cost story.
Speaker 5
You cannot move forward with the stack without the replication cost story. Otherwise, they're going to be like, okay, right.
If you're like, okay, like, I have this TV, it's really cool.
Speaker 5
Yeah, I have this framework. You're going to love it.
You know what I mean? Like, people are just like, why would I pay $1,000 for that framework? But when you're like, this is how I created it.
Speaker 4 Here are all the trial and error that that I went through right it's really cool it's cool too because it's like it's not like you do all four of those for everything that's part of the stack you probably rotate so one's an authority one's a this one's a that and so it's like it becomes like you said now it's it now you're just telling stories while you're making the offer and it makes it fun and exciting and like it's exciting for the audience versus like when most people pitch you see people standing up and walking out of the room because like oh here comes the pitch versus like when I'm doing what you're doing it's like I feel like I'm still at the party this is so much fun like super behind the scenes which people love too they're like oh my gosh I have an inside look on like what was happening which is awesome yeah everyone too anyway man, so cool.
