Today’s guest, Doug Ottersberg, is a business and life strategist whose life mission is to be a difference maker for difference makers. After working side by side with his wife to build multiple businesses, Doug realized that he was struggling to bridge the gap between his desire to succeed for himself and his family and what he really wanted deep down inside. This realization led him to make the decision to invest in income-producing assets so he could pursue a life of design, rather than one of maintenance.

Now Doug consults with growth-minded companies, owners, presidents, entrepreneurs, professionals, businesses, and teams to help them bridge the gap from frustration to a better quality of life. His inspiring journey from feeling “stuck” to finding purpose and financial freedom not only helped him discover the key that eventually launched him over that gap, but also helped him uncover a talent he didn’t know he had to help others do the same. Listen in to hear the lessons he's learned along the way.

If you’ve ever had braces or dental work done to improve the appearance of your smile, then you know firsthand how big a difference having straight, white teeth can make in a person’s life.

This led to the birth of Christopher's Call Tracker ROI program, the success of which we discuss in depth.

Christopher shares some of his backstory, including those early years of mega-growth at his practices.

John's sales tactics can be applied by anybody that has to sell products or services to customers who may not always be receptive. Instead of making the seller or the customer feel trapped and uncomfortable, John's selling techniques focus on advising buyers - whether they be consumers, patients, or otherwise - on their best options. The process is about two-way communication, rather than constant pitching.

We talk about how John became an expert in sales despite not fitting the "typical" salesperson personality expectations. John also discusses the interconnected nature of sales and marketing, and why it's so important to make sure your marketing tactics and sales process complement each other. We also touch on the relevance of sales for professionals in private practices and how they can apply John's hard-won advice.
