For this week’s show, I’m going to begin by taking you back in time.
It’s August 2017 in Nashville, Tennessee.
In just a few days, a rare natural phenomenon will occur for the first time in decades: There will be a total solar eclipse.
Naturally, people are planning to celebrate– especially in Nashville, where the eclipse is going to be in peak view.
At that time, I was a low-level software developer in an early career development program at a big health insurance company.
My college best friend and I drove 15 hours to Nashville to spend the weekend hanging out with my coworker, Cruze, who was based there. Cruze invited two other friends to come have fun for the weekend as well, so there were 5 of us in total.
We got to Nashville, had a blast partying all weekend, saw the eclipse on Monday, and then we all went our separate ways home.
Now, I had no idea at the time, but that trip would eventually change my life.
On the drive home, stuck in Virginia traffic, my best friend and I listened to an audiobook that would set us both on the path out of the 9-to-5, and into entrepreneurship. That is called the 4-Hour Workweek.
Listening to that audiobook, however, wasn’t the only thing that weekend that had set me on a life-changing path.
The other moment was the moment I met Ravi Abuvala.
Ravi was about to go to law school, and had come to Nashville that weeked to visit his childhood friend, Cruze.
Like me, Ravi also discovered entrepreneurship shortly after that trip.
While I launched a podcast that would grow past 100k downloads and dollars, Ravi started two businesses.
He would eventually take one of them past $1 million in one year, and the second one, Scaling with Systems, is about to reach $10 million in just under three years.
My story was a little different. After one year of entrepreneurship, I had launched a cool podcast, but I didn’t know how to grow my audience or monetize. In business terms, I didn’t know how to scale.
And, after just one year of trying to figure all this stuff out, I was already burnt out.
After that weekend in 2017, I had followed Ravi on Instagram, and watched him completely transform his life.
I needed to know how he went from law school dropout to multi-million dollar entrepreneur in virtually no time, and how I could do the same thing with my business.
He would teach me his ways, and I would go on to take what he taught me, apply it to podcasting, and then take two podcasts past six figures in revenue. And today, he’s going to share those exact things with you.
More specifically, he’s going to teach you how to utilize virtual assistants AND highly efficient systems to scale your own podcast business.
So, if you’re looking to monetize and grow your show, then you are in the right place.
