How to dissect your customer’s brain.

Hi, I’m Brian Pombo, welcome back. I’m not in the Orange Office today. I’m in a random room in my, in the Pombo manner. I’m speaking to you a little more quieter because we have children that are asleep right now and we’d like to keep it that way. I am in Grants Pass Oregon though and today we’re going to be talking to a little bit about psychology, a little bit about your customers brain and how it works.

A couple of ideas that I came across that really completely changed my life in terms of how I relate with myself and how I relate with others. Including relationship with my wife, how I deal with coworkers and how I deal with customers, long-term customers and clients. If you’d like to learn more. If you find any of this interesting at all and you’d like to see how it applies specifically to your business, you’re to want to set up, set up a time to be able to chat with me or somebody at BrianJPombo.com.

You’re welcome to purchase a strategy session and we can talk about any of these things that you would like and be able to fit it into your business and be able to make it profitable for you.

If you happen to be a business owner in the self-reliance field, meaning that you help people to become more self reliant through your products, your services, or your story, you’re someone I’d like to talk to.

Especially if you’re a business owner or an executive and go to DreamBizChat.com you can find the link in the description or you can just type it in directly. DreamBizChat.com on that website. It’s pretty self explanatory.

Watch the video, fill out the application and we’ll go from there. If you qualify, you’ll get a chance to be able to talk for me, talk with me for free. So let’s get back to dissecting your customer’s brain.

There’s a lot of different things that a person can go into when discussing human psychology and when it comes to how you relate back and forth with your customer base, whether they be prospective customers, current customers, or past customers.

That’s how I like to divide them up too. That’s a whole other issue. But I always love dividing things up into three. So whenever I find something that divides things up into threes, it tends to stick in my mind and tends to make a lot of sense. This particular concept was introduced to me by Kathy Colby. You’ll find her name in the description. Kathy Colby, inventor of the Kolbe Index, and she does a whole lot of work in the format of Conative Thinking.

I’m going to go into what that is in a second here in how she describes it. It’s a theory that I definitely subscribe to. I’ve just seen too much in working with people to not believe this to be true. And that’s that you can very easily split up the conscious mind into three different spots.

So everything that you would call, maybe your personality or how you function in everyday life can be broken up into one of these three areas. So I’ll show you that my little diagram here. So we’ve got, here’s average person here, average brain and split up into these three areas.

You’ve got Cognitive, Affective and Conative.

Cognitive has everything to do with your thinking, everything you do in terms of thinking and thought.

So that this is in terms of what you’re learning, things that everything in school is mainly based on a cognitive basis. It’s what you consciously know. So that can range from everyone can range and you can, it changes throughout your life.

You can know very little at first, go through some schooling, go through life, learn a whole bunch, maybe forget a whole bunch of cognitive can go up and down throughout your lifetime. Everyone’s on different level in terms of Cognitive.

Affective, it has to do everything with feeling and specifically relationships and feeling with relationships.

So everything that you feel on an emotional level and how you relate with your emotions comes back to the effect of a lot of times when people describe personalities, if you’ve studied any type of personality theory, whether it be Myers Briggs test as a common one, you might see out there.

Another one is the DISC, which is all based on….I forgot his name, the original person that started discussing it. Basically breaks down all of your personalities into four different sectors.

So sometimes that’s called the DISC profile. Sometimes it’s referred to by the humors in the body. We’re going to get into that on another, on another talk. In fact tomorrow we’ll talk about Affective.

Conative is one that doesn’t get talked about enough and that’s everything that has to do with doing so. All of your action phase is actually on a different level of your brain than the other two. How you act, how you willfully move forward in something, how you do work, whether it be in school or whether it be in your job. That all comes down to Conative.

And Conative has been broken down into four main sectors. Everyone’s got a little bit of each, but depending on where you would be on a scale can tell you a whole lot about a person on where they land on Conative. That’s another area.

We’ll talk about that in a couple of days.

But I wanted to break down these three areas just to show you, just to start the conversation and we’re going to get a little bit more deeper. Cognitive, definitely the area that is the most complicated and it’s going to be very, very different across the board with most people.

But it all has to do with thought and memory and so forth. We’re going to dig into Affective and Conative and talk about how it affects your business. Tomorrow we’ll talk about Affective, so how do your feelings and how do your customers feelings determine how they relate back and forth to you and whether they actually relate to you or not.

We’re going to talk about that tomorrow. In the meantime, get out there and let the magic happen.

Would Your Business Survive Armageddon?

Michael Foley – Farming for the Long Haul

Can Your Business Survive Armageddon?

Hi, I’m Brian Pombo, Welcome back to the Orange Office in Grants Pass, Oregon. Today we’re going to be talking a little bit of emergency preparedness, especially in terms of your business.

Are you a good prepper when it comes to your business?

Have you actually thought of what you were going to do if things really got tough out there? And what, I mean, what do you do with your business? If something really horrible happens, something apocalyptic, let’s say the electrical grid shut down or something of that sort, what would you do?

Well, this was kind of some of the talk of where we were going when we spoke with Michael Foley. He wrote the book, Farming for the Long Haul.

The whole thing’s all about resilience. How do you make things last? How do you make things last pass bad economies?

His whole purpose isn’t directly toward business. He deals a lot with homesteading and farming, but you could take the exact same concept and apply it back to your business. And really ask yourself, are you hitting on all the main points?

Some of the things that he points out is are you involved locally? Is your business, even though you may have an international or national based business, are you involved locally? Do you have a customer base locally that you could depend on if necessary? Do you work one-on-one? Do you have forms of direct sales with people?

All these things are things to keep in mind. We talk about a little bit more they’re on the podcasts. Go and listen to it. Really sharp guy, very educated. He’s spent years as a teacher. He just recently came out with this book.

This is his first book and I think he’d like to come out with more from the way it sounded. We talk a little bit about the book writing process. Talk about public speaking. So if you’re looking at doing either of those things to help propel yourself, your business, your concepts and ideas, you’re going to want to listen to this episode of the Off the Grid Biz Podcast. So go and check it out. The link is in the description. Once again, his name is Michael Foley and he wrote Farming for the Long Haul.

Really good talk that we had there. I really liked it. I got to meet him over at the Mother Earth News Fair this last weekend. So that was lots of fun. In the future, tomorrow we’re going to be switching gears a little bit. We are going to return back to the Mother Earth News Fair and discuss some of the other concepts that we came across there.

Tomorrow we’re going to be discussing something a little bit new.

We’re gonna talk about the psychology behind the relationship and how that ties back in personality and the psychology of that. This is an area we haven’t discussed yet here on the videos.

We’ll probably have a little series of videos where we talk about that tomorrow.

In the meantime, if you are a business owner or an executive and you happened to work in the self-reliance field, meaning you have products or services that help people to become more self reliant and really ties into our conversation here with Michael, go and listen to it. If you feel like any of those things hit for you and you’re looking to really tune up your business, I’m sure you’re doing great.

I only work with successful people really. And so if you already have a successful business, you’re the type of person I’d like to talk to. Because if you have a place you’re looking to go and you’re looking to have someone help you to get there, that understands business, that understands your type of business, a self-reliance based business, go to DreamBizChat.com.

You can also find the link in the description. You can go and click on that. If you happen to be listening to this via podcast and aren’t able to see it, it’s DreamBizChat.com talks all about the dream business transformation on that page. It’s a real simple page. It has a video, eight and a half minute video. Go and watch it.

If you think that you qualify, fill out the application. I’d love to be able to chat with you. So until then, next time, like I said, we’re going to be talking about personalities and psychology tomorrow and how it ties back to your business. So we’ll see you tomorrow.

In the meantime, get out there and let the magic happen.

How Important is Customer Service

http://DreamBizChat.com

Chris White – DripWorks

How important is customer service to Your Business? Hi, I’m Brian Pombo. Welcome back to the Orange Office in Grants Pass, Oregon.

With me today for the first time on these videos is Tyler Pombo, my oldest son, he’s five years old and he is just going to be helping me out a little bit as we talk today about the interview that I had with Chris White.

This fellow right here, he’s from Drip Works. You can find them at dripworks.com and they deal in drip irrigation and he gave a talk over at the Mother Earth News Fair in Albany, Oregon.

I didn’t even get to see his talk, but supposedly it was really good. I talked to him afterwards. He felt good about it and it was an interesting thing because he comes at it from a different angle.

He’s a sales representative for Drip Works and is one of the first people of his position that I’ve actually had on the show.

That was very interesting to come at it from that end and come up with some different questions and everything. I had talked to them about how this worked in the marketing plan for Drip Works.

The one thing he pointed to is that Drip Works has that really makes them stand out in the marketplace is customer service. And so they make sure they have customer service lines. Even though a lot of their stuff is online base, so you go on their site and purchase some of their items.

Everything is made to include people that are brand new to drip irrigation. So they have kits and so forth that you can buy and all these other things.

They have trained people in their customer service so you can call them and ask them if you have an specific issue, what you should be doing, especially if you’re new to the whole thing.

That’s what Chris’s job is. And if you look at it, really everything that he does has to do with customer service. So the whole him being at this show, him giving a speech on why it’s important to have drip irrigation and if you’re interested in having drip irrigation, why you should look into it and ask the pros that know how to do it. All those things, it’s all part of customer service.

It’s all part of being out there and being a real person in this digital world. Oftentimes we want everything to be automated and we forget that you gotta be real. You have to have….everything is one-on-one, everything is relationship reliant.

That’s what I say over and over again when I’m working with my clients and customers and helping them to able to really connect with their customer base and make it completely competition free. Is to really have that one-on-one relationship. So customer service, it’s not only necessary in your businesses necessary in every business to really make you stand out, go and listen to that episode.

I’ve got a link in the description below. Also in the link in the description below or above, depending on where you’re watching this is a a a special link that I talk about every time and all of my videos and it’s specifically for those of you who are owners and executives in the self-reliance field.

If you own a company that helps people in some way or fashion to be more self-reliant, like Drip Works, how they show people how to be more self-reliant, how to do gardening and so on and so forth. If you’re that person, go and go to DreamBizChat.com show them real quick. So what’s that website, Tyler? DreamBizChat.com.

Go to DreamBizChat.com like we said, the link is also in the description. I normally have my little card that I use, but I didn’t have it with me. Yeah, this time it’s a big card. Yeah, big card, that we’re using.

So, DreamBizChat.com go there, check it out. There’s an eight and a half minute video. It’ll explain itself and you can apply and you qualify for the dream business transformation. Go and fill out the application. It’s perfectly free and I love to talk with you.

On the next episode we’re going to be discussing an interview that I had with a very smart individual, somebody who has a long range vision in the field of agriculture and where things are going in terms of homesteading and everything else. How does that apply back to your business?

You’ll find out on the next episode, so we’ll see you tomorrow. In the meantime, get out there, get out there and let the magic happen.

Kirsten & Christopher Shockey – Ferment Works

Should you be selling information?

Hi I’m Brian Pombo. Welcome back to the Orange Office in Grants Pass, Oregon. Today we’re going to talk about, another episode from the Off the Grid Biz Podcast that I’m going to encourage you to go and listen to. These to fine people joined me in the Orange Office.

I’ve made references to their podcasts in the past because we had major technical issues with it where everything worked out great. I wasn’t even planning to have them be interviewed in person here in the office.

But one thing kind of led to the other. We ended up back here. They were one of the first interviews I ever had that was live. And in doing so, I did not plug everything in quite properly and everything did not turn out great audio wise. So I had to go through, fix it all.

And we still came out with something that I think is still listenable. So I’ll go and listen to their podcast. This is also the longest interview that I’ve had up until now.

I honestly think it’s one of the best interviews that we’ve had up till now. That’s not from the interviewer perspective, but from the guest perspective they had so much depth, and because we had two people, they we’re going back and forth along with their story and covering how all these things tie back into business in very subtle ways.

But I have a little commentary on the end pointing out the things that are think are most important. And one of them is the concept of an information business. Now this isn’t going to ruin anything for the podcast.

What you want to do is go and listen to it because they talk about how they started out as a product business. So their business is called Ferment Works. You go and check it out. Its ferment.works and you can listen to the podcast by clicking on the link here in the description.

So check out the description, you can see the link, and if you happen to be watching on Instagram or listening on a podcast, go to offthegridbiz.com and you can go and find their podcast. It’s a few episodes behind from where we are at today and so it’s from August 1st.

They had started fermenting vegetables, fermenting different things and selling things like Sauerkraut and selling them at the local farmer’s markets and so forth. And had built up quite a good size business to the point that they started getting orders from larger companies.

When they ended up getting an order from whole foods market of all places. They had to make a decision of are we going to go in this end of business, do we want to keep going this direction and change our lives this dramatically or do we want to keep some of our lifestyle while at the same time using the vehicle that we’ve already built to be able to do something different?

It’s a really, really, really interesting concept. Then a lot of people don’t think about they want to build up their business, but they oftentimes people don’t stop going in a certain direction until it’s too late and then they’re stuck and then they have a tough time.

I think they pulled the trigger at just the right time to switch their business from being a hard product business to an information based business. So, so, so interesting how they go through that discussion. Talk about all the challenges that you deal with in today’s information business. because it’s not easy either.

You think, “well your just providing information, how to and so forth.” Yeah. But it has a lot of advantages over a hard product business, but it has a whole lot of issues that you have to think about that you wouldn’t normally think about otherwise.

And there’s something for you to think about if you’ve got a hard product business, if you’ve got any type of business that provides people, a specific hard product, I always suggest looking at adding an information end to your business or at least using information for your marketing.

There’s a whole bunch of reasons why we talk a lot about that on that episode. And we talked about that on these other episodes of this show of the Brian J Pombo Live.

So check out the past episodes when we talk about that and we’re going to discuss more about in the future about how you could do that more with your business. Now, if you have an information business, there’s also a way to create hard products for that. One of them, for example, it may seem obvious, but hard books. Especially if you’re doing information online, giving people something physical that they can take home with them that they can, they could hold in their hands.

It adds another dimension to your business that may not currently be there if you’re already in the digital information business. So they’ve written hard books, published books.

They’re published through Storey Publishing and we’ve discussed them before. They also published a Hentopia and a couple others that we’ve discussed before. Beautiful books. I bought one at the Mother Earth News Fair. They were there.

I got to see them, got to see them present live, which some of the best presenters. I mean just honest, out of all the presenters I saw, they’re some of the most professional and direct and just on top of it, confident presenters that I’ve ever seen. They’re the power couple. Okay. You go and look that up in the in the dictionary and you’ll find their picture. Very cool people, I hope they’ll allow me to talk to him again in the future.

Even despite the technical difficulties because there’s so much that you could learn from them and I know I learned something, so go and check that out.

Tomorrow we’re going to be talking about another interview from, from another speaker and a completely different type of speaker too, and it has to do with customer service and you’re going all on customer service. I mean, come on.

What is there to customer service? There’s another angle to customer service that you may not be thinking about. We’re going to be talking about it tomorrow and it applies to everybody’s business. So we’ll see you tomorrow. And in the meantime….oh, I almost forgot.

If you happen to be a business owner or an executive in a self-reliance based business, similar to the Shockey’s here, similar to the other businesses we talk about here, then I’m going to implore you to go to DreamBizChat.com.

The link is also in the description right below the title. Go and check out DreamBizChat.com and you can find out all about the dream business transformation. Watch the quick little video there. If you’re interested, fill out the application. Let me know what you think. We’ll talk to you later. In the meantime, get out there and let the magic happen.

Be Sooo Good

Checkout Brian’s interview with Janice Cox here – http://offthegridbiz.com/janice-cox-natural-beauty-for-all-seasons/

Be Sooo Good.

Hi I’m Brian Pombo, welcome back to the Orange Office in Grants Pass Oregon today. The kind of headline of this video is Be Sooo Good.

It’s the beginning of a quote from one of my favorite quotes from Steve Martin, the a comedian, actor, playwright, so forth. And it’s, “Be so good they can’t ignore you.”

This is great career advice across the board. It really does say a whole lot and we could go on and on about that quote and what it means to you and your business. But I, for some reason it popped in my mind when I thought of this lady.

This is Janice Cox. Janice, I got to interview a couple of weeks ago, I think it was a couple of weeks ago. All the days are starting to run together here because we’ve been running around so crazy. I’ll get to that in a second.

I just drove back into town from, from the Albany area. I was in Corvallis last night as you, you may recall if you were watching the videos then I was in Corvallis, Oregon. We were in Albany, Oregon for yesterday, the day before for the Mother Earth News Fair, which happens once a year in this area, and also happens at five other places across the United States.

One of the huge influences that got me to go there was this lady right here. This is Janice Cox. When we decided we were going to go, we started interviewing…especially the speakers. Lot of the speakers and people involved with the Mother Earth News Fair.

This was somebody that we talked to and it was great because she was local. So it was one of my first live interviews that I got to do one on one right here in the Orange Office.

A unintentional outlet always ends up here. It’s not a, it’s a horrible place for interviews. We’ve got a really bad echo here. We had the Shockey’s here, a Kirsten & Christopher Shockey , a fermentation fame, which I’ll talk about them later because they had a fabulous talk that was very badly recorded by myself.

They were the first ones I spoke with, but I spoke with Janice after them. We got the recording good. It’s a great episode of the Off the Grid Biz Podcast. You could reach that in the description below, above, wherever you’re watching this. You could see that.

Or you can go to offthegridbiz.com and type in Janice Cox and you can listen to her interview. It’s a nice, nice little quick one and she’s just straight forward. Here’s why the quote reminded me of Janice. It’s not because she is super knowledgeable about what she does, she totally is.

It’s not because she’s an entertaining speaker. I got to see her speak here this last weekend. Yeah, she’s great.

It’s because she’s really a good person and for some reason it kind of hit that quote hit me when I thought of her because she just comes off very genuine. Very good. Very happy and she’s just having a great time with life and it kind of spreads throughout everything she does.

She also connects people. She connected me up with a whole lot of people, pretty indirectly. She mentioned me to people before I even met them one-on-one. So they said, you know, Janice was just talking to me about you. This happened multiple times over the weekend folks.

I only met her once, but I think we connected and everything worked out well. And you know, there’s just a whole lot of great people that we met over the weekend.

Janice is one of them. Go and listen to her story. She specializes in natural beauty, so natural beauty products, things that you can do on your own in a very natural way that makes you not have to go out and buy a bunch of chemicals and stuff and slap that on your face and do all those things.

So she’s also an expert in lavender, which I learned a whole bunch of things going to a talk from her all about lavender that I never thought I would know before. Now I’m seeing it everywhere.

I’m seeing physically lavender everywhere. I’m seeing people talk about lavender. It’s this whole thing, did you know. Go and check out, go check out that episode on Off the Grid Biz. You can also check out her books. I mentioned her earlier because she gave me this just great gift basket of stuff, including her two of her books.

These are just two of them. A natural beauty from the garden and natural beauty for all seasons. Great books. And so go check that out. I’m trying to promote a different podcast, every other time or so that we get together here in the Orange Office.

So come back tomorrow we’re going to be talking about another one and it’s going to be a good one. We got a whole lot of other things that we’re going to be going over this coming week, including a stack of stuff that I brought from the fair that I love to run over with you.

Some very interesting people that I got to meet that hopefully we’ll get to interview in the future and we’ll be talking about business. In ways that you can, do better in your business, grow things out if you have already have a successful business, especially if you’re in the self-reliance field.

The type of people that go to the Mother Earth News Fair, all deal in a very similar areas of self-reliance. And if you’re an owner or an executive in self-reliance, you’re someone either I would love to talk to.

Go to DreamBizChat.com. The link is in the description. Go and click on it. Go and check it out. There’s an eight and a half minute video real quick. The watch over there describes what it is. If you’re interested, fill out the application and we’ll see if you qualify to be able to talk with me. So see you in the future. See it tomorrow.

Listen To Brian’s Talk With Jessicka here – http://offthegridbiz.com/jessicka-nebesni-mountain-rose-herbs/

The right people in the right seats. Hi, this is Brian Pombo, welcome back. Not currently in the Orange Office. I’m in Corvallis, Oregon.

Just went to the final day of the Mother Earth News Fair here just up the road in Albany, Oregon. And had a great time, met some great people, got a lot of stories I’ll be telling you in the future, both here and on the Off the Grid Biz Podcast, which was one of the main reasons why we went a lot of the storyline. You’ll be able to follow there.

A lot of the lead up that we had to this event, you could find there right now, but last 11 episodes all have to do. They’re all a conversations we’ve had with speakers that were speaking at this event. People that I got to connect up with the right handful of people.

I completely missed was not able to have a conversation with them, but most people I was able to at least say hi to.

So if you’re one of the ones that I missed, I’ll be getting in touch with you in the future. Sorry we missed you. I had a great time. Was my first time there. Like I said, lots of stories, but let’s talk about the right people in the right places on the bus.

This comes from a section of Jim Collins book, “Good to Great.” Where he’s talking about how your business is like a bus. You’re the bus driver and that a lot of people think of their business as being a……they think of the point of the bus driver is really determining where you’re going and then finding the people that want to go there.

And really it’s more about who you have on the bus. Got a whole lot of your business has to do with the WHO.

So it has to do with your who customer, who your customers are, has to do with who your, or your clientele, who your employees are or the people that you’re going to be working with you to take you in a certain direction.

It starts with the WHO on so many different levels like we’ve discussed in the past.

When we talk about the marketing pyramid that Dan Kennedy talks about, about the WHO and the what and the where and the why. But let’s get back to that the WHO. It’s important to have the right people on your team. So people that you’re going to get along with.

People that are sharp and who are passionate about what they do. So one of the people that I ran into in leading up to this event, and someone I got to meet today, one on one for the first time, Jessicka Nebesni, she’s from Mountain Rose Herbs from Eugene, Oregon.

And you can go and check out the interview I had with her. I’ve got the link in the description. Go check that out. That’s not the Off the Grid Biz Podcast. And if you happen to be somebody who knows about the Mother Earth News, you very well might be interested in the self-reliance field.

And if you have a business or you like you’re a business owner or you’re an executive in the self-reliance field, you’re somebody I’d love to talk to. I’ve got a website called DreamBizChat.com. Go check it out.

DreamBizChat.com. It’s completely free. I’m not selling anything there. There’s an application that you could fill out if you feel like you qualify for the dream business transformation, go check it out.

There’s an eight and a half minute video, go watch it. Let me know what you think one way or the other. I’d love to hear what you think. And in the meantime, we are going to be back tomorrow, or at least we’ll be on the road by the time I talked to you next on our way back to Grants Pass, Oregon.

And like I said, lots of exciting stuff coming up. Oh boy. You can’t believe it So we’ll see you tomorrow. In the meantime, get out there and let the magic happen.

Destroying the Comfort Zone

http://DreamBizChat.com
More Daily Vids➡️ – shorturl.at/ctAB4

Hey everybody told you I’d make it here and I’m here. This is all about destroying your comfort zone.

Let’s get started. My name is Brian Pombo with BrianJPombo.com I am here at the Lynn County fairgrounds and I have just experienced the Mother Earth News Fair of Albany, Oregon 2019 behind me, the Fairgrounds, this is where it was added is kind of the central location in the center. There’s a couple stages, a couple of booths over here, and then this large building over here is where a large amount more happens.

Also more stages beyond that, I believe they have 10 stages all together, 10 or 11 stages. With these running all day long, you can’t see everything. You just can’t see it all. There’s more than you could imagine. There’s more vendors than you could imagine. I haven’t got to speak with hardly any of them yet cause I was busy watching all the shows today.

Haven’t got the talk with all of the people that I did interviews with earlier. Haven’t got to interview all the people that I said I was going to interview. We got the interview, Jereme Zimmerman.

That one’s coming up, a famous writer of, uh……..I’m gonna go to brutalize one of his book titles. I’m not gonna do that. I’m gonna tell you about more about Jereme later.

We got a good interview, so that’s gonna make a great podcast. So what’s the comfort zone and have to do with this? This is outside my comfort zone. Just getting out there and meeting new people and trying new things. I mean, I like it after I’ve done it, but I’d much in most cases, I’d much rather just stay behind a computer, I mean honestly, until bed, until I get out here.

And then I said, wow, this is, you know, there’s this whole world that you miss if you don’t get outside your comfort zones. Put a little money down, take a weekend to put aside. And I had to leave my family behind and stuff like that this time around. And that stinks.

But you know, sometimes you gotta, you gotta do what you’ve gotta do and they’re all happy they were playing at the lake today. Get out of your comfort zone, destroy it, fine. You don’t have to do it all at once.

Just do it a little bit at a time. I’m going to hopefully get to show you some more of the inside tomorrow. The signal’s not great out here, so I was kind of hesitant all day about about actually going live, but everything’s done now. Six o’clock. They shut down pretty early. They got shut down at five tomorrow.

I’m going to try and get you to, I’m going to walk around with you a little bit tomorrow and talk about some of this stuff a little more. But in the meantime, get out, get out of your comfort zone. Go out there. It’s not as bad as you think. All the fears and stuff.

Most of them will drop away. You just got to get out there and try it out. I’m here with our podcast producer Sean E Douglas, and we’re going to go, I think grab something to eat or something to drink and just to chill out a little bit for the rest of the night. We’ll catch you all later.

In the meantime, get out there and let the magic happen.

Hello everybody gift from the darkness. That’s what we’re going to be talking about today.

Coming to you, not from the Orange Office, if you can’t tell. We are here in Corvallis, Oregon for the Mother Earth News Fair.

Got different equipment. I think I have my microphone out in the car but it’s just going to deal with this for now and we are going to be here all weekend so hopefully tomorrow we’ll get some views from the fair. Maybe do a live right from a the Lynn County Fairgrounds where the Mother Earth News Fairs are at in Albany, Oregon.

About 20 minutes down the road from there. If you happen to be a business owner or an executive of a self reliance based business, the type of businesses that the Mother Earth News Fair is going to be highlighting quite a bit in their, especially in their vendor section. Then you’re someone I’d like to talk to.

What I do is I specialize in helping businesses move from their current even successful states and moving into their dream business scenario. So everything and it really tends to relate around a person, either an executive or a business owner that’s in charge and it kind of what would be in their best interest and we kind of focus on what would it take to make the business go in that direction. I’m a business strategist.

Go to DreamBizChat.com. That’s right. I brought it with me to DreamBizChat.com. My little cue card here., hey Joseph Costamagna, joining us out there in internet land. Hello, we’re on Facebook live. For those of you who are watching a replay later. We have ah, let’s see, I was going to talk about a gift from the darkness. This is a podcast that I did with Leah Webb from Deep Rooted Wellness.

Go and check it out. I have a link in the description. There’s a little wave wave emoji here I am waving back. If you look at the link down in the description or up in the description, depending on where you’re seeing this, there’s a link to Leah’s podcasts. It’s a really great podcasts. She’s a really great person to talk to.

Hopefully I’ll get to meet her in person here at the Mother Earth News Fair and she’s going to be speaking here.

She mentioned this great line about gifts from the darkness and as kind of a weird, you know, woo woo way of thinking of it initially unless you understand what she’s talking about.

And what she was talking about is all these scenarios that happened in her life that at first seemed to be horrible.

They is that whole concept of mixed blessings, right?

They seem to be horrible situations, but they turn out all turn out for the best even though it’s really crazy situation.

So one of the main ones that she brings up is the fact that she had a son who was born who ended up having severe allergies to foods, to certain foods. She then had a daughter that has cystic fibrosis, which also requires a lot of dietary changes and so forth.

And so she became extremely knowledgeable about diet and started learning about all these things and got so good at it that she started training other people about how to do the same thing. And now she’s written a book.

Go and check it out over at offthegridbiz.com, you think I’d know my own website, offthegridbiz.com is a podcast that I put out. And we have all whole bunch since I’ve last spoken with you. So go and check that out and go and check out Leah’s episode. We’ll be talk about some of the other episodes in later lives tomorrow.

Hopefully get to show you some of the Mother Earth News Fair. Maybe get to talk to some people. Maybe you’ll get to meet some people right here.

So come on back tomorrow and I a promise I’ll be here and in the meantime, get out there and let the magic happen.

Want A More Simple Life?

Episode with Gary Collins: http://offthegridbiz.com/gary-collins-the-simple-life/

Want a more simple life?

Hi, I’m Brian J Pombo with BrianJPombo.com welcome back to the Orange Office. This is Brian J. Pombo Live coming to you from Grants Pass, Oregon.

Today we’re talking about simplicity, life simplification, a great little phrase that this fellow made up right here.

This is Gary Collins. Gary Collins is the writer of many books including some one called Off The Grid, which ties right into my Off the Grid Biz Podcast, which I got to interview him on. If you check out the description, you could see the link going back to that interview and I highly recommend you listen to it.

Now at the time of the interview we did it over video chat and he doesn’t look a lot like this. He’s got a beard now and a baseball cap on, so he looked like a completely different person but very sharp guy.

Lots of fun to talk to and he’ll be a lot of fun to listen to make sure and listen to that podcast. He’s got a lot of energy and a lot of the stuff he talks about, it’s really funny because a lot of the stuff he talks about that, uh, I heard someone else saying is a lot of common sense.

He has a lot of solid common sense, but he delivers it in a very confident, straightforward, no bs attitude that makes it a lot of fun.

One of the themes that he has is this concept of life simplification.

And the way I see it is it’s life simplification for the purpose of lifestyle design. So if you can have the ideal life, my friend Tyler says that, it’s a life you don’t need a vacation from. If you could design a life you don’t need a vacation from, what would it be?

And would it be more simple? If you really distilled it down to its most simple form, what would that be? How would that look? If you could just make it as basic as possible just to start out with, just to make your life easier, stress-free, and really be what you want it to be. What would that look like?

That’s what Gary focuses on, that’s his perspective on things. And that’s what he helps people bring people to. He has a series of books. Has a new one coming out called the Simple Life Guide to Financial Freedom.

So we talk a lot about that on the show where he’s talking about financial freedom. He’s talking about, how to really simplify things to be able to get what you want out of life while at the same time not messing people over and really having a good moral life.

Go listen to that because I think it would help you out.

I think it’s very much in terms of a lot of the concepts that we talk about here. He actually lives off the grid. So beyond what most people would off the grid, he lives off the grid, he and lives very much an off the grid lifestyle.

He tries to stay off social media except for business and so forth. And he’s got a lot of cool concepts. Go and listen to that episode.

If you are a business owner or an executive that’s in the self-reliance space, meaning that you have products and services and a lifestyle that promotes self-reliance to others, then you’re somebody I’d like to talk to. Go to DreamBizChat.com. At DreamBizChat.com where I’m discussing the dream business transformation.

There’s an eight and a half minute video you can watch. Just go take a look. It’s free to apply and it’s free to take part in the Dream Biz Chat if you’re so interested, if you’re so inclined. And if you qualify, go and check it out. I’m quite a ways off from being able to have any Dream Biz Chats right now or at least two weeks to two months out right now with them. So there is a waiting list, but if you go apply, I will definitely get back to you within the next week and a half or so.

Like I said, we’re kind of backlogged and like on a lot of great episodes on, Off the Grid Biz coming out even tonight. Go and check it out once again. DreamBizChat.com. Tomorrow we are going to be discussing, uh, let’s see, what are we going to be discussing?

I don’t know. It probably the next episode of Off the Grid Biz, which is going to be coming out tonight. Ooh, go and check it out. It has to do with, how to have these types of businesses.

How would you have…..we talked about, expert type businesses or adding some expertise into the business that you already have? We’re gonna talk about a person that’s been doing that themselves. They’ve been practicing this concept of learn, do, teach, and it’s just, it’s a constant cycle. I think you’ll find it interesting.

We’ll see it tomorrow. In the meantime, get out there and let the magic happen.
