One of the fringe benefits of hosting the Engage Today program was having the chance to meet so many incredible thought leaders and visionaries.

Eben Pagan is one of those people I’ve admired for years, not only because of his authenticity and integrity, but because I think he’s one of the most insightful and powerful teachers when it comes to business strategy and marketing.

You may not know Eben’s name, but he’s a true legend in the electronic marketing world.  He’s gone from literally having a start-up business in his 1 bedroom apartment, to building up to $30 million dollars in annual revenues — and he’s done it without having any physical employees in an office.  All of his employees are virtual, and he’s a master at focus and productivity.

I respect Eben so much that I hand selected him to do the interview of Richard Branson during the Engage Today event!

In this amazing video featuring Eben, you’ll learn a number of powerful things, including:

• The #1 Priority in business today – and why it’s killing so many businesses
• Why you’re not getting things done, and how to immediately become more productive
• How to make yourself powerful in order to create massive change in the world
• The secret to taking control of your time and being in control of your agenda
• The truth about multitasking, and why it’s such a terrible idea
• What your voicemail message should say, and how to handle your email
• 3 things that will revolutionize your business, even if you only focus 2 hours per day on them
• The power of blocking your time to be more productive and to create more value (and profits)

Eben was one of the highest-ranked presenters during Engage Today, and when you see this video, you’ll know why.  He’s got tremendous power and wisdom, and if you’re an entreprenuer or small business owner, he’s one of the greatest sources of practical tools and strategies you’ll ever find.

One of the most profound presentations that happened at Engage Today was Barbara De Angelis, and her powerful discussion of what she refers to “The Great Shift“.

You’re probably already familiar with Barbara De Angelis, as she’s one of the most successful and popular transformational experts in the world today.  At Engage Today, she really revealed how powerful she was, and help everyone connect the importance of where they are in their life, to what their life purpose really is.

I had many attendees come up to me and tell me this was the presentation that really caused them to sit up and pay attention, because Barbara was so passionate and shared her transformational wisdom.

In this 10 minute video, Barbara shares a number of powerful things, including:

• What she refers to as “The Great Shift“, and why it is so critical to understand it
• The 3 powerful shifts that you must go through in order to move into prosperity

A lot has been said about how powerful Engage Today turned out to be, and what an incredible experience it was.

What many didn’t see was the amount of effort and challenge that went into putting on this event.

We decided to put together this ‘documentary’ that provides a view of the event from a different perspective.  Instead of one presenter, we’ve taken many of the top highlights of the event, and demonstrated how we moved through some powerful themes during the event.  Topics like accountability, contribution, growth and abundance.

I personally think this is the most amazing of all the videos, because it gives you a sense of just how unique and powerful the speakers and presenters were that came together.

Rarely will you ever again see this kind of ‘faculty’ come together in one place, and deliver so much incredible value and insight.

This video is about 30 minutes long, but if you want to get a sense of what was shared through the program, this is the one you need to sit quietly and watch.  One of the featured presenters in this video is His Holiness the Dalai Lama, who left the audience spellbound and with full hearts.

You’ll learn specific ideas and concepts about:

• what a brand really is, and how you can build yours into a world class brand that others admire
• what the basis of all relationships is, from His Holiness the Dalai Lama
• how to move from a place of scarcity and fear, to a place of abundance and prosperity
• how to identify a profitable niche for your business, by Eben Pagan
• the power of happiness, from Marci Shimoff
• how to build a great company culture, with several speakers including Tony Hsieh and Vishen Lakhiani

More than 18 of the speakers at the event are featured in this video.

You’ll not only pick up some amazing insight from the various speakers, but you’ll get a chance to hear some of the background stories, and see some of the fun backstage interviews with many of the speakers.

I hope you enjoy this video, as you are one of the first people that has a chance to see it!  You’ll love the diversity of the speakers, but yet they’re all speaking common messages.  It was truly incredible how this happened, and how everyone really came together at this event.

And a lot of entrepreneurs and business owners have told me it was the greatest business program they’ve ever been to, simply because it was about how to integrate successful business concepts and ideas into the other priorities they have in their life.

Engage Today showed the world how you can truly “do well by doing good“.

What do the changes happening in the world mean for you as an entrepreneur?

How has the world changed — and why will it never be the same?

How do you attract clients in this environment, and retain the ones you already have?

Many people know Bill Harris as a transformational expert, since he appeared in “The Secret” and is the Director of CenterPointe Research.

However, his incredible business and marketing expertise is not as well known — but equally powerful in terms of the value he brings to entrepreneurs and business owners.

In this 10 minute excerpt from Bill’s presentation at Engage Today, you’ll see some incredible wisdom on how to ensure your business thrives, even when people are spending less.  Bill and his partner Brad Antin are known in the electronic marketing community as being 2 of the most insightful and talented players in the game.

In this powerful video, Bill shares some of his insights, including:

• A simple explanation of what’s led to the financial crisis
• What the current environment means for entrepreneurs
• Why ‘getting the sale’ of your product or service is only the very beginning of your work
• Some of his greatest marketing insight that’s helped him become one of the world’s best online marketers

If you’re letting excuses hold you back from getting what you want, this video training with Sean Stephenson is exactly what you need.  Talk about an inspiring guy who kicks your excuses a kick in the butt!

Known as the 3 Foot Giant (because he’s literally only 3 feet tall), Sean Stephenson was supposed to die at birth.  Diagnosed with a life-threatening illness, he defied the odds simply by living.   Born with a condition that makes his bones as brittle as toothpicks, he endured more than 200 broken bones in his first several years of life. 

Sean has all the good ‘reasons’ in the world to be a victim, and have people feel sorry for him.  He was going to be taken care of by others for his entire life.

Until he decided that he wasn’t going to stand for that.

Sean is a true role model of the spirit of the human race, and he’s inspired millions of people around the world to Take a Stand, and get off their ‘but’.

In this remarkable and touching video, Sean reveals:

• How to keep moving forward, even against painful and frightening obstacles
• What we all share in common, regardless of who we are (and how to harness those commonalities)
• What it is that keeps us from achieving our dreams and desires
• Why connection is so important, and how to achieve it with those that matter to you

Sean’s presentation was one of the most popular sessions at the 4 day Engage Today event, and I’m pretty sure if you’ve never heard of him before, Sean’s going to be a new role model and mentor for you.

Watch the video, and then POST a comment – Sean will be reading these comments himself, so speak directly TO him and what you got out of this clip!

If you want to see what the future of business looks like, Tony Hsieh reveals how today’s greatest companies are truly combining passion with profits, and adding the 3rd key element — purpose.

As CEO of Zappos.com, Tony has led the company to $1 Billion dollars in annual sales, and placing it on the top lists of the most progressive and successful employers in the world.  In November 2009, Amazon purchased Zappos.com for approximately $928 Million dollars — but intends to leave the company operating as it is, because they’ve found such a powerful and successful formula.

And this isn’t Tony’s first success.  In 1996 (when he was 23 years old), he co-founded a company called LinkExchange that he sold to Microsoft 2 years later for $265 Million.  That led him to create a venture capital firm, which ultimately led him to meet the original founder of Zappos.com, and take an interest in the unusual business model of selling shoes via the internet.  That original concept became today’s online retailer juggernaut, Zappos.com.

Every entrepreneur should see this video, because it reveals how to create a GREAT company, regardless of its size, by focusing on what really matters.

Among other things, Tony reveals:

• His definition of brand, and why focusing on brand is the wrong approach
• His #1 priority at Zappos.com (and it ISN”T customer service)
• The reason why most business struggle to succeed (they’re focus on the wrong things)
• How you can instill a powerful culture into your business, regardless of its size
• The secret to their hiring process that brings them massive loyalty in their employees

Tony is a great example of the next-generation entrepreneur, and that there is a powerful future ahead for small business owners who dare to dream big, and remain focused on what matters to them.

Watch the video and then POST A COMMENT below – what do you think is the most valuable part of Tony’s insight?

Do you disagree with him?
