This is another interview from our Energised Leader series that looks at the habits and methods of high-performing entrepreneurs worldwide.In this episode, we’re chatting to Taki Moore, coach marketing and business building expert. In his own words, here’s everything you need to know about him: “Father of six, scaler of coaches, and lover of tacos”.And here’s a little more information…Being “broke as a joke” and with his third child on the way pushed Taki to set his first ever goal, to generate $8,000/month income. This led him to take action, specifically his first ever webinar, a strategy that he has since mastered and become famous for, both as a user of webinars and a teacher of webinars as a marketing strategy.Taki now teaches coaches how to scale their business to seven figures and beyond and says he’s on a mission to eliminate cold-calling, ambulance chasing and high-pressure selling from the coaching industry and replace it with education-based marketing.Episode highlights:How we met Taki and his experience of our breathing methodologyTaki’s background and how his goal setting got him to where he is todayHis 2018 goal - getting 50 people to their first million dollar year in business - which Taki succeeded atThe current goal - to help 75 people get to their next $1m level in their businessHow high pressure pushes people like Taki to lateral thinkingOne of the biggest mistakes we all make - complicating things and making them harder than they need to beWhat Taki believes in - learning to simplify first and multiply secondHow do you simplify the various parts of your business?
