Check out these episode highlights: 01:56 - Antonio’s ideal client: “My ideal client, what I like to call the "cast entrepreneurs", C-A-S-T. They're the coaches, authors, speakers, and service providers. So professional service providers, anyone who trades their time for money.” 02:16 - Problem Antonio helps solve: “Well, simply put, I like to say I take the employee' ship out of entrepreneurship. Most entrepreneurs go into business with the idea of having all this time and freedom, but they find out it's the exact opposite.” 02:48 - Typical symptoms that clients do before reaching out to Antonio: “Well, typically, it's going to be pretty straightforward. You're working a lot, and you're making a little, right? So, you're putting in a lot of hours, and you're just not seeing that return on investment. Your income is either plateaued.” 03:59 - Common mistakes that people make before they find Antonio’s solution: “Well, yeah, the real issue, which creates more than an issue, is that most entrepreneurs tried to be more productive. They try to get more done in less time, etc.” 05:38 - Antonio’s Valuable Free Action (VFA): “I'll actually give you three actually. When we think about the process of what helps take a company and an organization from overworked, busy, frustrated to having more time freedom and making more money than they had in the past is really a three-step process.” 07:38 - Antonio’s Valuable Free Resource (VFR): Check out Antonio’s Website: gettimebank.com/MTI 08:14 - Q: How's life?
