An impromptu and spontaneous transatlantic interview between Fredrik and his guest, Donnie Boivin. Author, businessman, coach, motivational speaker and podcaster, Donnie helps others to achieve a change in mindset and propel them forward to achieving their aims. He speaks candidly about the experiences and influences that have shaped his life and how he achieves a healthy momentum in his work. 

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS
Fredrik and Donnie both joined the Marines in their respective countries after finishing college. 
After a long career in sales Donnie launched his business Success Champions and hit a steep learning curve and now passes what he learned from his mistakes to others to facilitate them to achieve a easier lifestyle with their businesses.
A common mistake made by both Donnie and Fredrik is to accept too many tasks and become bogged down by process. The trick is to work on the business not in the business.
Building a business involves a lot of bad days to get through and its best to keep these in perspective as, eventually, they will just be cautionary tales you can tell later. 
With modern online instruction provided by information platforms like Google and YouTube you can keep yourself up to date without spending huge amounts of cash on training.
Sanctuary is important. Donnie has a farm that is isolated from his business interests to which he can escape. 

BEST MOMENTS

 

‘I’m not a guy that does well with authority and people telling me what to do. When you’re going through boot camp or whatever and you realise that these people are going to keep yelling at you for a long period of time you really question your choices in life.’

‘If you had cash, money of any sort then yes! I whatever that was that you needed done so we found ourselves doing websites, graphic design and *@$t that we had no business doing.’

‘If you don’t educate them on how you will actually sell to them and how they can get involved to make this happen then the closing might be very odd later.’

‘Being a salesperson is the only profession in the world where you will literally get rejected every day.’

‘At the end of the day, do what’s right by you and I think that goes for your business as well.’
