Undercover Billionaire secret lesson number one.
Hi, I’m Brian Pombo welcome back to Brian J. Pombo Live. Today I’m going to be talking about The Undercover Billionaire, which is a TV show that was first shown last year, 2019 on the discovery channel.
If you haven’t seen it yet, be sure and go out and see it. Now, nothing I’m not going to give away any spoilers or anything, but I’m going to tell you the premise of the show and kind of hopefully encourage you to go and watch it because it really is worth the worth.
The journey, I think it’s nine episodes long. Excuse me if I’m wrong, but I think it’s something like that. Now it’s well worth it. It’s all one big storyline, documentary style TV show.
It follows a fellow by the name of Glenn Stearns and he’s a very well known, if not a billionaire and definitely a multimillionaires, built billion dollar, multi-billion dollar companies and it follows him going through the process of pretty close to scratch in a world that he’s never been in before.
He always had this theory that he could start with just about nothing and start in a town he’s never been in and be able to build his way up to a million dollar company in less than 90 days from the absolute bottom.
What they did is they said, okay, we’re going to take you to this town. They dropped him off into town. He’s never been to, they gave him a cell phone without any contacts in it, a Smartphone. They gave him a pickup truck, an old pickup truck, and they gave him a hundred dollar bill.
He had the clothes on his back and that’s it. A hundred dollar bill, cell phone, and a pickup truck.
So where does he go from there?
How does he go about finding a place to live?
How does he go about making enough money so he can eat?
How does he go about building a business from that point forward?
And you follow him along in this journey and it’s very, very interesting whole lot of lessons and I’m going to reveal some of what I think are the secret lessons that are available.
Now let’s deal with lesson number one.
The first lesson. These are in no particular order. I’m going back and reviewing the show based on some of the things that I got out of it and the things that I’ve heard from other people who have seen it that I think are important to note.
The one thing that’s really important to note is the importance of honesty.
In other words, if you’re looking to instill any type of trust, foster any type of trust with your partners, with your customers, with your clientele and your employees or whoever you’re working with. If you’re looking to have long-term trust, you have to have full honesty as much as possible.
Obviously there’s certain things that don’t need to be known or said out loud, but you can’t say something that’s dishonest or lead people in the wrong direction because that in the long run, it ruins the trust factor and if there’s no trust, you can’t have a long-term relationship.
Without a long-term relationship, you’re going to have issues with income.
If you’re looking at building any type of regular ongoing income into your company, you’ve got to have trust. Trust is so important.
Now, how’s this come back to undercover billionaire?
Well, one of the things that he has to do is he has to go by a different name instead of Glenn Stearns, I believe it’s Glenn Bryant is what he’s going by and so he has to go by a different name.
He can’t be completely honest about the fact that he said that he’s worth so much money and has built major company companies before.
He has all these things going against him and you can see how that that comes and kind of bites him in the butt through the show.
One of the reasons why is because the people that he’s building friendships with, not using any of his original contacts or anybody that he knows in any form of business.
He’s going out and meeting people and then building up trust. That’s really difficult to do when you’re not giving them the full story.
Not only that, he has all these parameters, he’s got to do everything in 90 days. He’s going to do all these things and he can’t be completely honest as to why that’s the case.
Because of that, there’s these trust issues that he has throughout the show with the people he’s working with. It’s very, very telling and something that you have to keep in mind, even though you’re not out there taking part in basically what is a game show?
You’re not going out there and doing that.
So it’s more important than anything for you to be as honest as possible and to bring people in and build that trust both with your partners, like I said, or with your clientele themselves.
Just a brief idea, one little concept, one little nugget I got out of that show that I think shows really crystal clear within that show. Go and watch it.
