  • Value packed goodness!

    I have only listened to the first podcast and I can’t wait for many more. Dain knows his stuff, does his own work, and therefore attracts good people. This podcast is going to change the way entrepreneurs act and believe in themselves for sure. He is one of the few mentors I have found that is super in integrity and absolutely cares. 🔥

  • Dain doesn’t miss!!

    So stoked to have Dain’s content in a podcast. He gives so much value in everything he does, from free Instagram content to his online course & private group calls.

    This first interview with Sabri was such a great source of inspiration and real food for thought. Can’t wait to hear who’s on next! (Chris Do? 😉)

    Thank you Dain!!

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

#97 - From Self-Publishing to Netflix: How One Story Sparked a Global Movement | Callie Hart
Q: What's your approach to writing and plotting across multiple books in this series?
The author plans holistically, plots beats on cue cards, and writes scene by scene to maintain momentum while ensuring future books have room to evolve and connect, especially across the Kingfisher arc.
#97 - From Self-Publishing to Netflix: How One Story Sparked a Global Movement | Callie Hart
Q: How did the Netflix deal come about and what was your impression of the collaboration?
The Netflix interest emerged from early conversations with the agent; Netflix presented a collaborative approach that respected author input and allowed creative control, making it feel like a partnership rather than a takeover.
#97 - From Self-Publishing to Netflix: How One Story Sparked a Global Movement | Callie Hart
Q: How did you decide to self-publish Quicksilver and what changed after that?
I chose to self-publish after an editor suggested scaling down and shifting approach; the decision to publish as-is, followed by direct promotion and leveraging Booktalk, changed the trajectory dramatically when the book started to gain traction.
#97 - From Self-Publishing to Netflix: How One Story Sparked a Global Movement | Callie Hart
Q: What happened and why did you want to quit?
Burnout and financial strain made me consider leaving writing; I decided to take a risk on a book that fed my passion, despite it being outside my readers' expectations, and this gamble ultimately led to a breakthrough.
#125 - 11 Rules of Marketing And What Actually Works | Andrew Tindall
Q: What should marketers avoid when evaluating success—ROI alone or broader brand effects?
ROI is an overemphasized efficiency metric; marketers should focus on effectiveness first—building brand memory, future demand, and profits—and only then consider long-term ROI and profit-based metrics.
