Scott Simson went from having a dollar in his bank account to generating over a billion views on YouTube - and now he runs a done-for-you agency that turns video into one of the highest-ROI traffic sources in the game. In this episode, Scott breaks down exactly how YouTube can replace (or outperform) paid ads for your business, why long-form video converts at a completely different level than short-form, and the content packaging framework his agency uses to get results for clients from day one. You'll also hear how Scott went from financial planner to family vlogger to agency CEO, why AI has cut his work week from 50 hours down to 15, and how one client flipped from spending $20K a month on ads to getting paid $15K a month from YouTube. If you're building a funnel and relying on paid traffic, this episode will make you rethink your whole traffic strategy. 00:00 - Intro Bumper 00:22 - Meet Scott Simson (YouTube Expert + Background) 04:09 - 2008 Crash, Failed Business & Starting Over Broke 07:20 - Writing

What if the secret to scaling your business had nothing to do with paid ads - and everything to do with relationships? In this episode of ClickFunnels Radio, Chris and Dante sit down with Paul Counts and Shreya Banerjee, a business duo who've generated over $100 million in revenue for their clients using a strategy called OPA - Other People's Audiences. Paul started selling pencils at 8 years old and was running email campaigns on dial-up at 13. Shreya left a stable corporate career chasing time freedom. Together they built an agency around one core belief: serve first, scale second. They break down the OPA method from scratch, walk through a real $1M funnel they built with Russell Brunson, and share exactly how they find, vet, and build partnerships that actually last - without spending a dollar on ads. If you're an entrepreneur looking to grow smarter, not just bigger, this one is for you. 00:00 Intro Bumper 00:26 Meet Paul & Shreya + Background 07:16 Personal Branding That Actually Sticks 09:11 Paul's

Blake Nubar went from $30K in debt to 7x Two-Comma Club winner. And it didn't start with a product, a team, or a single ad dollar. It started with a Facebook profile. In this episode, Blake breaks down exactly how he turned a free Facebook profile into a $25,000 sales machine in 9 days, built a $1M funnel for someone else's product before he ever sold his own, and why most people are sitting on a massive traffic source they don't even know exists. He also gets into the 3 mistakes he sees entrepreneurs make over and over, why he says launching perfectly means you waited too long, and what pushed him to build Rocketeer, an AI ads platform designed to do what most entrepreneurs give up on entirely. This one covers a lot of ground. Stay until the end. 00:00 - Intro Bumper 00:31 - Episode Intro + Guest Setup 01:16 - Blake's Origin Story (First Funnel + First Sale) 03:30 - The "Fast Success" Myth 07:30 - Facebook Profile Funnel (Made $25K in 9 Days) 10:30 - Biggest Mistakes Entrepreneurs Make 15:00 - Attention, Tra

You've heard the ClickFunnels story from Russell's side. This is the other side. Todd Dickerson is the co-founder who built ClickFunnels. He's been behind the scenes for years. This is one of the few times he's sat down to tell his story directly. In this episode, Todd and his wife Ashley sit down together for the first time on ClickFunnels Radio. They talk about what it actually took to build this company, from the early days of working for free, to the moment the database disappeared and Todd spent eight hours trying to bring it back while Russell was in London, to what it means to stay bootstrapped when private equity came knocking. Ashley also opens up about what it was like to support Todd through those early years, broke, with a young daughter at home, and a husband who believed so strongly in what he was building that she chose to believe in it too. Here is what they cover: The decision to work for equity instead of a salary, and what that actually looked like day to day The database crisis that to

Angelica Govaert has gone broke and rebuilt herself twice. After the 2008 crash took everything, she drove to Las Vegas with her dog, played poker to survive, and won $6,000 at the Wynn to open a yoga studio in a converted garage. That garage became the largest yoga studio in Nevada - 50,000 clients, 150 teachers, multiple six figures. Then she sold it, bought a sailboat, and lost it all again. Broke and waiting tables at Bubba Gump Shrimp in her late 40s, she remembered a guy named Russell Brunson she'd seen at a conference. She built her first funnel from a dock. Year 1: $24K. Year 2: $79K. Year 3: $151K - all organic, zero paid ads. Today she's in the ClickFunnels Inner Circle and about to earn her Dream Car.

Mark Harbert has been doing online marketing for over 18 years. Funnels, lead generation, video strategy. He has seen just about everything. But before any of that, he was sitting in Chile with $7 in his PayPal account and no way to even withdraw it. That moment changed how he worked. He went from stuck to producing up to 10 videos a day, and within 90 days, he had his first five-figure month. In this episode, Mark walks you through the exact approach he used and still teaches today. You'll hear about the 555 plan, his step-by-step method for getting comfortable on camera and building a video habit that actually converts. He also breaks down a simple three-part AI prompting structure that keeps your content sounding like you, not like a robot wrote it. And if you have been wondering whether to invest in coaching or just buy more tools, Mark has a clear answer on that. This one is worth your time if you are building something online and want practical thinking from someone who has done the work. Get 3 months o

To celebrate episode 800, Chris Cameron introduces ClickFunnels Radio's new co-host, Dante Torelli - a former realtor who clicked a Russell Brunson ad at 1:30am and never looked back. Dante shares how he took a pay cut to become a tech support agent at ClickFunnels because he believed in the mission, and how that bet on himself paid off. Chris and Dante dig into what holds most people back from launching their first funnel (hint: it's not knowledge), why the One Comma Club Award matters just as much as the Two Comma Club, and what the funnel builder certification opportunity means for people who don't have their own product yet. They also get into the role of AI in funnel building, a wild foot fungus course that absolutely crushed, and why "fire, ready, aim" is the mindset that separates serial learners from serial doers.

In this episode of ClickFunnels Radio, everything clicks into place. This is the moment where belief turns into inevitability. After a week of learning funnels, sales, leverage, and speed, today's focus is on what actually determines whether this time will be different - and why so many smart, capable people get stuck right before the breakthrough. This session isn't about tactics alone; it's about identity, commitment, and making the shift from "trying" to deciding. McCall, Kathryn, and I walk you through the six missing keys that stop people from ever reaching their first One Comma Club milestone - and how to remove each one for good. From choosing the right long-term path, to becoming resourceful instead of resource-limited, to selling quietly when you need camouflage, this episode is designed to remove every remaining excuse. We also dive deep into courage - those critical 20 seconds that separate people who talk about success from people who create it - and why community is the final force that makes mom

In this episode of ClickFunnels Radio, we shift gears from effort to leverage - and focus on the fastest path to results once you understand funnels and selling: speed. Day four of the challenge is all about shortcuts - not the sketchy kind, but the kind that come from stacking the right tools, systems, and leverage so you can move faster without sacrificing quality. This is the day where everything accelerates. Today, McCall and I break down the "Race to the One Comma Club" by pulling the two biggest speed levers in your business: time and price. You'll see how AI, when used the right way, can drastically reduce the time it takes to build funnels while simultaneously increasing their quality and value. From creating better offers to building entire funnels in minutes - and even adding recurring services your clients will happily pay for - this session shows you how to compress months (or years) of work into days. Key Highlights: The two speed levers that determine how fast you reach your first One Comma Cl

In this episode of ClickFunnels Radio, we tackle the biggest sticking point for almost everyone once momentum starts building: selling. By day three of the challenge, many of you already had leads, conversations, and even people asking about funnels - but the real question was, how do you actually turn this into money without feeling awkward, pushy, or salesy? Today is about removing that fear completely and replacing it with a system that makes selling feel natural, ethical, and simple. I'm joined by McCall Jones for a powerful training that shows you how to get clients without "closing" in the traditional sense. Instead of pressure, scripts, or high-stress sales tactics, she breaks down a clear, repeatable process that helps prospects want to pay you - often before you ever ask. This session is a turning point in the challenge, where funnel building stops being a hobby and starts becoming a real business skill you can monetize with confidence. Key Highlights: Why most people don't have a sales problem - t

In this episode of ClickFunnels Radio, we take the next step inside the One Comma Club Challenge by moving from belief into execution. After day 1, a lot of people took action fast - and many of you suddenly found yourselves with real leads, real conversations, and real pressure to deliver. Today's training is about removing that overwhelm and showing you exactly what to do when opportunity shows up. This is where we stop talking theory and start building real skills. I'm joined by Catherine Jones for a hands-on workshop that breaks funnel building down into a simple, repeatable system anyone can follow - even if you've never designed a page before. Instead of guessing, getting creative, or trying to learn everything at once, we walk through how to model what already works, rebuild proven funnels step by step, and gain confidence by actually doing the work. This is where "I hope I can do this" turns into "I know how to do this." Key Highlights: Why most funnels don't fail because of design - but because peo

In this special episode of ClickFunnels Radio, I'm bringing you the first training from a brand-new series inside the One Comma Club Challenge, where I break down the fastest and most realistic path to earning your first $1,000 online. This isn't about building a massive business, chasing big visions, or learning dozens of skills at once. It's about belief, momentum, and getting that first win that proves this actually works. I share why your first small success matters more than any future milestone, and how that single moment of proof can permanently change how you see yourself as an entrepreneur. Throughout this opening training, I lay the foundation for everything that's coming next in the challenge. You'll hear why most people stall out by trying to "build a business" instead of becoming valuable first, and why mastering one highly profitable skill - funnel building - creates immediate leverage in almost any market. With personal stories, real-world examples, and a clear roadmap, I explain how becoming a
