You're not broken, you just need a better strategy

When I began coaching as a service, there was an interesting pattern that started to show up.  Some agents were really good at producing and just needed an adjustment in their mindset to move forward. Other agents approached the business with all the positivity of Stuart Smalley (if you weren't old enough to watch SNL in the 90"s, then you'll have to google him).  These agents had the mindset, just lacked the mechanics.  Basically, all will - no skill.  And before you tell me that will beats skill, I agree.  However I've yet to meet someone have a bag of money fall on their head because they willed it to themselves.  Moving forward requires mechanics along with that mindset.  Most agents were hungry for more, but they really struggled to create the alignment needed to move forward with power.  There was no system to diagnose and fix the issue.  ​
After well over 10,000 hours of one on one time,  we began to see this relationship. I remember breaking out a flip chart and started to lay it all out on paper.  I first noted that if ultra productive agents were aligned in their mindset, mechanics, and movement, then what did that look like?  This is where the Qualified Champion (later called the MF Code) was born.  

I took that model to a small group of business owners in 2019 in a 7 week process and we were amazed at the trajectory changes for those in attendance.  Some went on to open Insurance agencies, others built out massive coaching programs for their mortgage team, and everyone saw a spike in their overall production. 

As the follow up conversations and results started to roll in, it was obvious this is something business owners crave.  The framework we were providing gave context to otherwise frustrated or burned out performers.  You can look across the coaching space and find plenty of mindset programs as well as How To programs.  Rarely, if ever, do those programs show how to marry them together.  The Unshakeable Agent (new name for the process) gives all of that and more.  It's a step by step guide for unlocking and creating an unshakeable business. 

What an amazing story...

I’d love to hear from you about this. Would you say you lean more on your mindset or more on your mechanics?  Is your business more frustrating or is it burning you out?  Let's hear it.  Hit the comments below and let me know.  

I've got something cool to share with you tomorrow,

Beyond the Talk: How Your Business Results Expose Your True Standards

As we get into the rhythm of the week, let's focus on a truth that often gets overshadowed by what we say: Results reveal more about your standards than your rhetoric. It's easy to talk a big game. To articulate grand visions, promise exceptional quality, and declare unwavering commitment. Rhetoric – the art of persuasive speaking or writing – can be powerful in setting intentions and inspiring others. But ultimately, it's the tangible outcomes, the actual results your business produces, that truly expose the standards you operate by. Think about it: If you claim to prioritize customer satisfaction, what do your customer retention rates and feedback scores reveal? If you talk about quality products or services, what do your defect rates and customer complaints indicate? If you preach efficiency and innovation, what do your profit margins and the speed of your adaptation show? Your results are the unvarnished truth. They cut through the aspirational language and reveal t...

Kingdom Doers Podcast - Businesses Don’t Grow. People Do.

In the world of business, success isn’t just about strategy or growth hacks; it’s about people. And people don’t thrive on tactics alone; they thrive on transformation. This is the core of Momentum and Mastery , a framework that didn’t materialize in a brainstorm over pizza and Coke but emerged from 20 years of hands-on, often gritty experience in the trenches with entrepreneurs, leaders, and changemakers. The building blocks? Mindset, Mechanics, and Movement. These aren’t just nice words to put on a PowerPoint slide; they’re the ingredients of real growth. Mindset gives you the resilience to face challenges; Mechanics offer the structure you need to execute, and Movement propels you forward. But here’s the kicker: they need to work in harmony. When they don’t align, you’ll find yourself spinning, chasing goals that seem to slip further away. Think about it: how often do we push ourselves with motivation alone? How often do we throw ourselves into action without aligning our mindset...

Navigating Chaos: Finding Clarity in Uncertainty

 In the latest episode of Spencer Uncensored , I broke away from my usual black tee and hat—a small act of rebellion, perhaps, but it felt fitting for a moment of reflection. As we dove into the episode, I couldn’t help but think about the journey I’ve been on, both personally and professionally, and how it mirrors the struggles many of us face in our lives and businesses. We all crave clarity, yet so many of us find ourselves ensnared in chaos. This chaos manifests as confusion and inconsistency, which can feel overwhelming. You might be wondering, “Why can’t I just get my act together?” The answer often lies not in the actions we’re taking but in the fog of uncertainty that clouds our vision. The Power of Clarity A confused mind, as they say, will almost always say no. If you're not crystal clear about your goals, how can you expect to take meaningful action? Most people will tell you they want to make more money or achieve success, but those statements are vague at best. What do...
