    Tested Advertising Methods: The Blueprint for Higher Conversions | #Success - Ep. 113

    Most entrepreneurs think their funnel is broken when it doesn’t convert. But after building funnels for over two decades, I can tell you the truth… ninety-nine percent of the time, the funnel isn’t the problem. The problem is we haven’t done the work of testing. The difference between a funnel that struggles and one that scales to millions usually comes down to a few small changes - tested intentionally and consistently. In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show, I pull a classic out of my vault: Tested Advertising Methods by John Caples. This is one of the foundational books that shaped modern advertising and completely transformed how I look at marketing. I share the story of my very first split test - changing nothing but the color of a headline - and how that simple tweak increased conversions by nearly 27%, instantly giving me a “raise” without more traffic, more ad spend, or more work. If you’ve ever wanted to know how to systematically grow your business instead of gambling on guesses, this episode is your blueprint. Key Highlights: ◼️Why 80% of your ad’s success depends on the headline - and how to structure it so it pulls people into the first paragraph ◼️The exact split-testing framework I use inside ClickFunnels to “give myself a raise” every single day ◼️The biggest mistake entrepreneurs make when testing (and why testing more than one variable at a time kills your data) ◼️Why specifics dramatically out-convert generalities - and how one precise headline 3X’d our results ◼️How old-school advertisers risked tens of thousands of dollars per test - and what their discipline can teach us today Testing isn’t just a tactic… it’s a philosophy. It’s the difference between hoping your funnel works and knowing it works. When you understand how to test headlines, offers, and pages the right way, you stop guessing and start engineering growth. John Caples mastered this decades ago, and when you adopt that same mindset, you’ll realize you’re just one split test away from your next breakthrough. ◼️⁠⁠⁠https://russellbrunson.com/notes⁠⁠ ◼️If you’ve got a product, offer, service… or idea… I’ll show you how to sell it (the RIGHT way) Register for my next event →⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://sellingonline.com/podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ◼️Still don’t have a funnel?

    Vanessa Van Edwards on the Hidden Science of Trust, Charisma, and Selling Without Being Salesy | #Marketing - Ep. 112

    In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show, I sat down with Vanessa Van Edwards, and I knew right away this conversation was going to hit differently. I’ve been seeing Vanessa everywhere lately, and when she told me she used funnels and webinars to build her business, my mind was blown. She’s a self-described “recovering awkward person” who turned social anxiety, human behavior research, and relentless testing into a global brand - and along the way, she quietly mastered selling without ever feeling salesy. What fascinated me most wasn’t just her success, but how she got there. Vanessa didn’t chase every platform blindly. She studied people the same way we study funnels. She learned what makes someone trust you, listen to you, and ultimately buy from you - and she applied those principles to webinars, content, books, and partnerships. This episode is a masterclass on communication, charisma, and how deeply understanding people can transform your business Key Highlights: ◼️How Vanessa went from failed book launches and quitting her business to rebuilding everything with webinars, funnels, and aggressively helpful content ◼️Why most entrepreneurs aren’t bad at marketing - they’re under-signaling warmth and competence (and how to fix that) ◼️The real reason some webinars convert for years while others flop, and how balancing credibility with likability changes everything ◼️Her unconventional growth strategy of leveraging platforms (not just social media) like Udemy, MasterClass, and email lists she didn’t own ◼️The exact cues - from voice tone to body language - that instantly increase trust when you’re on stage, on video, or on a sales call We also go deep into her books Captivate and Cues, her upcoming work on conversation, and why charisma isn’t something you’re born with - it’s something you can learn, practice, and systemize. If you’re an introverted entrepreneur, a funnel hacker who loves strategy more than small talk, or someone who knows their message is good but struggles to deliver it confidently, this episode is for you. ◼️If you’ve got a product, offer, service… or idea… I’ll show you how to sell it (the RIGHT way) Register for my next event →⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://sellingonline.com/podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ◼️Still don’t have a funnel?

    The One Comma Club Challenge: Day 5 of 5 - Making Success Inevitable | #Marketing - Ep. 111

    In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show, everything clicks into place. This is the moment where belief turns into inevitability. After a week of learning funnels, sales, leverage, and speed, today’s focus is on what actually determines whether this time will be different - and why so many smart, capable people get stuck right before the breakthrough. This session isn’t about tactics alone; it’s about identity, commitment, and making the shift from “trying” to deciding. McCall, Kathryn, and I walk you through the six missing keys that stop people from ever reaching their first One Comma Club milestone - and how to remove each one for good. From choosing the right long-term path, to becoming resourceful instead of resource-limited, to selling quietly when you need camouflage, this episode is designed to remove every remaining excuse. We also dive deep into courage - those critical 20 seconds that separate people who talk about success from people who create it - and why community is the final force that makes momentum unstoppable. Key Highlights: ◼️The three paths to scaling your funnel skills - and how to choose the one that fits your life and goals ◼️Why resourcefulness, not resources, is the real unlock to funding your next move ◼️How to sell and land clients privately through DMs when you need discretion or confidence ◼️The power of “20 seconds of insane courage” and why hesitation is more dangerous than failure ◼️How commitment and community turn belief into inevitable results This episode is where everything gets cemented. You’re no longer wondering if funnels, selling, or business can work for you - you’re deciding that they will. When the compass is clear, the excuses are gone, and the courage is activated, momentum becomes unavoidable. This is the point where success stops being a hope and starts becoming a process you can’t unsee. ◼️⁠https://onecommaclub.com⁠ ◼️If you’ve got a product, offer, service… or idea… I’ll show you how to sell it (the RIGHT way) Register for my next event →⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://sellingonline.com/podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ◼️Still don’t have a funnel?

    The One Comma Club Challenge: Day 4 of 5 - Accelerating Results With Leverage | #Marketing - Ep. 110

    In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show, we shift gears from effort to leverage - and focus on the fastest path to results once you understand funnels and selling: speed. Day four of the challenge is all about shortcuts - not the sketchy kind, but the kind that come from stacking the right tools, systems, and leverage so you can move faster without sacrificing quality. This is the day where everything accelerates. Today, McCall and I break down the “Race to the One Comma Club” by pulling the two biggest speed levers in your business: time and price. You’ll see how AI, when used the right way, can drastically reduce the time it takes to build funnels while simultaneously increasing their quality and value. From creating better offers to building entire funnels in minutes—and even adding recurring services your clients will happily pay for—this session shows you how to compress months (or years) of work into days. Key Highlights: ◼️The two speed levers that determine how fast you reach your first One Comma Club milestone ◼️How to use AI the funnel hacker way by feeding it the right “brain,” not generic prompts ◼️Why higher-quality funnels allow you to charge more—and get paid faster ◼️A behind-the-scenes look at AI-powered funnel building that turns hours of work into minutes ◼️How adding a newsletter and traffic system creates recurring revenue and client “stickiness” This episode is where leverage replaces grind. You’re no longer just learning how to build funnels—you’re learning how to scale your effort, your value, and your income at the same time. When you combine the right strategy with the right tools, speed becomes inevitable. And once you feel that momentum, it’s hard to ever go back. ◼️https://onecommaclub.com ◼️If you’ve got a product, offer, service… or idea… I’ll show you how to sell it (the RIGHT way) Register for my next event →⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://sellingonline.com/podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ◼️Still don’t have a funnel?

    The One Comma Club Challenge: Day 3 of 5 - Monetizing Your New Skill | #Marketing - Ep. 109

    In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show, we tackle the biggest sticking point for almost everyone once momentum starts building: selling. By day three of the challenge, many of you already had leads, conversations, and even people asking about funnels—but the real question was, how do you actually turn this into money without feeling awkward, pushy, or salesy? Today is about removing that fear completely and replacing it with a system that makes selling feel natural, ethical, and simple. I’m joined by McCall Jones for a powerful training that shows you how to get clients without “closing” in the traditional sense. Instead of pressure, scripts, or high-stress sales tactics, she breaks down a clear, repeatable process that helps prospects want to pay you—often before you ever ask. This session is a turning point in the challenge, where funnel building stops being a hobby and starts becoming a real business skill you can monetize with confidence. Key Highlights: ◼️Why most people don’t have a sales problem—they have a sales system problem ◼️How to use a free sample the right way so prospects naturally want more ◼️The “Hit By a Bus” framework for selling without pressure or pitching ◼️How to show value by highlighting before-and-after differences in a funnel ◼️Simple language shifts that turn conversations into paid projects This episode is where everything clicks. You already know there’s demand. You already know you can build the thing. Now you know how to get paid for it—without becoming someone you’re not. Once you understand this approach, selling stops feeling scary and starts feeling like service. And that’s when this whole opportunity really opens up. ◼️https://onecommaclub.com ◼️If you’ve got a product, offer, service… or idea… I’ll show you how to sell it (the RIGHT way) Register for my next event →⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://sellingonline.com/podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ◼️Still don’t have a funnel?

    The One Comma Club Challenge: Day 2 of 5 - Turning Belief Into Ability | #Marketing - Ep. 108

    In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show, we take the next step inside the One Comma Club Challenge by moving from belief into execution. After Day 1, a lot of people took action fast—and many of you suddenly found yourselves with real leads, real conversations, and real pressure to deliver. Today’s training is about removing that overwhelm and showing you exactly what to do when opportunity shows up. This is where we stop talking theory and start building real skills. I’m joined by Catherine Jones for a hands-on workshop that breaks funnel building down into a simple, repeatable system anyone can follow—even if you’ve never designed a page before. Instead of guessing, getting creative, or trying to learn everything at once, we walk through how to model what already works, rebuild proven funnels step by step, and gain confidence by actually doing the work. This is where “I hope I can do this” turns into “I know how to do this.” Key Highlights: ◼️Why most funnels don’t fail because of design—but because people overcomplicate the process ◼️How to recreate a proven funnel step by step without guessing ◼️The six-part SWIPES framework for building high-converting funnels ◼️Why funnel design is the easiest and fastest skill to sell online ◼️How modeling beats creativity when you’re just getting started ◼️Why confidence comes after taking action—not before This episode is where things start to feel real. You’re no longer just learning about funnels—you’re learning how to build them. If the first training showed you what was possible, this one shows you how to make it happen. And once you understand this process, you’ll never look at funnels, websites, or online opportunities the same way again. ◼️https://onecommaclub.com ◼️If you’ve got a product, offer, service… or idea… I’ll show you how to sell it (the RIGHT way) Register for my next event →⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://sellingonline.com/podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ◼️Still don’t have a funnel?

    The One Comma Club Challenge: Day 1 of 5 - Building Belief First | #Marketing - Ep. 107

    In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show, I’m bringing you the first training from a brand-new series inside the One Comma Club Challenge, where I break down the fastest and most realistic path to earning your first $1,000 online. This isn’t about building a massive business, chasing big visions, or learning dozens of skills at once. It’s about belief, momentum, and getting that first win that proves this actually works. I share why your first small success matters more than any future milestone, and how that single moment of proof can permanently change how you see yourself as an entrepreneur. Throughout this opening training, I lay the foundation for everything that’s coming next in the challenge. You’ll hear why most people stall out by trying to “build a business” instead of becoming valuable first, and why mastering one highly profitable skill—funnel building—creates immediate leverage in almost any market. With personal stories, real-world examples, and a clear roadmap, I explain how becoming a rainmaker for other businesses is often the shortest path to income, confidence, and long-term opportunity in a rapidly changing economy. Key Highlights: ◼️Why the first $1,000 is the most important milestone in entrepreneurship ◼️How the One Comma Club represents belief, momentum, and proof ◼️Why building funnels for other people is the fastest path to income ◼️What it means to become a “rainmaker” in any business or industry ◼️Why mastering one funnel beats trying to master every business model ◼️How small wins create the confidence most people are missing This episode sets the stage for the entire One Comma Club Challenge, and it’s just the beginning. Your first win won’t make you rich—but it will change what you believe is possible. Get excited, stay focused, and be ready, because in the next episode we dive into the next training where we start installing the actual skill set that turns belief into real results. ◼️https://onecommaclub.com ◼️If you’ve got a product, offer, service… or idea… I’ll show you how to sell it (the RIGHT way) Register for my next event →⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://sellingonline.com/podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ◼️Still don’t have a funnel?

    The One Comma Club Challenge: The Real Starting Point for Making Money Online | #Marketing - Ep. 106

    In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show, I wanted to give you a little behind-the-scenes context for what we’re about to do and why I’m so excited about the One Comma Club Challenge. Over the years, I’ve talked a lot about being “one funnel away,” and I’ve lived it myself — through the ups, the downs, the wins, and the moments where nothing seems to work. This episode is me pulling back the curtain on what I’ve been working on, why this challenge exists, and who it’s really for. I’m not teaching the process yet — that’s coming over the next few episodes as I share recordings from the live challenge — but I am sharing the thinking behind it. Why making your first comma matters, why most people don’t need more tactics, more funnels, or more platforms, and why giving yourself proof that this works is often the thing that changes everything. Key Highlights: ◼️Why I believe one funnel can still change the entire direction of your business ◼️What inspired me to create the One Comma Club Challenge ◼️How I rethought the structure of this challenge after studying what actually works If you’re at the beginning of your journey, or you’ve been stuck trying to get something to work and wondering if you’re crazy, this is for you. I built the One Comma Club Challenge to help you get proof — real proof — that you can make money online. If you want to come hang out with us live, go to https://onecommaclub.com and join the challenge.
