• 18:00 - 18:30 do you guys use this what do you guys do this what do you guys do with that what are you guys doing with this we were at an event with Google where the Google CEO's there as well as a YouTube CE the top podcasters on YouTube were all together then we had another dinner with Spotify the top 10 podcasters on Spotify were their top 10 out of the 40 podcasts were together having dinner having conversations together how do you use it what do you do what do you do these are the elements of networking and building relationships if a person has three
• 18:30 - 19:00 hacks about Spotify that you don't it's tough to compete with that person that's how this thing works number six it's about your character if you say you're going to do something with somebody you're networking with keep your word the moment you don't you're like everybody else to that person keep your word everybody makes promises that they don't keep everybody overpromises underd deliver you under promise overd deliver and don't don't be fake just be yourself seven proper approach you got to learn how to approach I can get five different people that are selling me the same exact product with the same exact
• 19:00 - 19:30 company and they represent the same product same company but they approach me in five different ways and I'll do business with one of them why because I like their approach it wasn't the product it wasn't the company it was the individual's approach improve your approach communicate in a way that resonates with the person you're speaking to use their language understand their perspective and connect on their level use the right words don't expect people to adjust to your
• 19:30 - 20:00 communication meet them where they are communicate at their level eight tools finding the right tools is critical for accelerating your network growth don't assume all tools are equal and work for your networking goals okay don't assume that use the right tools the whole concept of man is because I wanted to pay have a tool where I can pay you to respond to me I don't have a problem paying you so think about this if I've
• 20:00 - 20:30 been trying to get a hold of Adam for 5 years and I know he's not getting back to me because I'm sending him email Instagram DM whatever it is he's not getting back to me would I be willing to pay him $100 for him to respond back to me within 24 hours no question here's a 100 bucks yes or no yes no talk to John thank you six years it took me I'm willing to pay for that so the new economy is people just want to make sure you're respecting their time because how many apps do you have on your phone when I go through my phone and I think about the apps look at this how many apps you
• 20:30 - 21:00 got each page is how many apps three 18 is apps 18 apps per page right calculate the amount of apps you got on your phone right now for me one page two 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 13 time 18 is what over 200 200 apps how the hell am I able to get back to everybody I can't so for you you have to find a way to leverage the right tools so people get back to you don't assume all tools are equal and work for your networking goals don't do
• 21:00 - 21:30 that okay so now evolution of networking this is the key with evolution of networking 15th century you know what tool we used for networking Vinnie it was business cards you know was it was it was in the 1950s to 1990s this is what I'm trying to buy my sons right now I want to try to buy my sons a be beeper right now pager they're like that can we get a cell phone I said I'm going to get you a beeper I said I used to have a beeper from this place called Telestar in glendel California and then I'm going to send you a a a what do you call it a
• 21:30 - 22:00 message on your page or 143 they're like What's 143 I love you right what's 411 info there was all these different codes hello you had all these listen I'm going to stop with the codes because some of the codes are nasty but beepers was one of the ways that we would get a hold of each all doctors had beepers then it was emails 1971 then it was Motorola phone 83 This is Tom's era now okay we're aging Tom a little bit AOL 85 remember the AOL chat oh my God I met Mary in this AOL chat
• 22:00 - 22:30 for glendel high school she said this next day in school oh my goodness the AOL chat You've Got Mail Right remember that stuff then it's frster they came out that was the right idea and wrong timing maybe and then you got you know Blackberry uh messenger which I don't know if you remember blackberry and I was a big Blackberry uh Nextel guy I loved it then you have the smartphone that came out an ' 07 and I don't know if you bought your smartphone
• 22:30 - 23:00 the moment it came out I was an iPhone 3 I think I don't know if did you guys start with iPhone 1 I was an iPhone 3 I never got the first one I was a Blackberry Nextel which was the best way the gray one to text people was the best one and then you have apps Myspace 03 LinkedIn the last time they did an update Michael Jordan was still playing basketball okay LinkedIn hasn't done an update for a long time it's the same app for a long time Facebook 04 Twitter now it's x06 WhatsApp 09 Instagram 10 telegram 13 signal 14 and now it's man
• 23:00 - 23:30 okay so networking tools on all the other apps why do they have to get back to you they don't on all the other apps if you measure email rate cold email you send somebody there's a 1% chance they're responding back to you if you do cold Instagram it's a 1.6% they're responding back to you if you do a cold Twitter X it's 3 to 5% they're responding back to you if you do
• 23:30 - 24:00 LinkedIn it's 8 to 12% chance they're responding back to you but if you do man right now the answer rate right now on man is 98.6% do you know why it's 98.6% because to them that you're messaging them on man you're paying for it they respect the fact that you respect them they'll respond back to you that's why man is working so effectively right now by the way you're going to hear from some different people on how they're using man and it's very weird
• 24:00 - 24:30 stories for everybody across the board so what does this go to everything starts with what I know someone that what that whatever I know someone I know someone that owns this I know someone that owns a mechanic shop I know someone that has a soccer coach that used to play for the MLS for your son I know somebody that this all of that right so man condenses time frames instead of waiting 6 years for Adam to get back to me or seven years now you
• 24:30 - 25:00 man them they get back to you okay that's the whole idea with this I'll give you three testimonials here and you're going to hear from some of our guys here in a minute that are using man aggressively and then I'll give you the announcements which is going to be pretty epic I can't wait for that all right so one day about eight months ago I get a man one of the funniest mans of all time on what ends up happening with it and he's probably listening to it right now a guy sends me a man he says hey Pat my dream is to one day be a professional sports owner I said oh

• 26:30 - 27:00 he's a pastor you know what he does he buys strip clubs as a pastor when's the last time you heard a pastor buys strip clubs it's a very weird business model this guy buys strip clubs and turns them into rehabilitation centers for former people that went through human trafficking that's what he does and he uses man to raise money through man he'll share his testimony here momentarily with you so a couple features I want to announce to you with man that I am very very excited about

• 50:00 - 50:30 us what you like as an ethical hacker what do you like most about the Man app so man has been awesome I uh I I didn't I never thought that I was going to you know join an app like something like that reminded me you know not to name another app similar to it but I was you know kind of turned off by an app similar and I was like okay this is full of experts and it seems like to be run in a legitimate way there's actual people on here that you know are answering great questions it's not just uh making birthday videos for your for your grandkids you know and you know
• 50:30 - 51:00 that I'm I remember I was sitting in your in your studio and you guys were like let making ad right now it's like boom boom boom boom and I was kind of intimidated like I don't know if I could do this and then I fell in love with it I absolutely fell in love with the uh with the app and um and S similar to Caleb I work at counter human trafficking violence against children um I'm also as as Patrick said an ethical hacker so people reach out to me all the time I use my neck very uh consistently about cyber security um child safety and um you know I just absolutely love it
• 51:00 - 51:30 and super grateful to be part of the team and by the way Ryan when he was I want to say this correctly 16 years old he was having days where he was making 30 grand a month like this guy's a true entrepreneur Hustler and when he pulled up Ryan how's your how's your orange Lambo doing by the way just out of curiosity so Patrick and I the day that I pulled up I had a delivery of an orange Aventador and Patrick pulls up a picture and we had the literal same Vador with the same color and the same uh carbon fiber um you know add-on so
• 51:30 - 52:00 what a what a crazy coincidence and I honest to God had no clue that he had that car at all well I love the car you answer the question I absolutely love the car I sold my Huracan to get the Aventador good decision well good for you man and by the way again parents this is the right guy to ask for those that want to protect your kids when you're giving him cell phones he's going to give you tools that the rest of us don't know about that's his level of expertise ask ask him the question he's accessible to you on man just respect his time and pay for it but Ryan you're
• 52:00 - 52:30 doing a great job you're changing a lot of people's lives we're proud we're proud of you and we appreciate you thank you again for uh uh you know doing what you do with man we appreciate you thank you I appreciate you as well anytime buddy all right next person Roman I bought a watch from this guy and this guy's a watch guy like listen some of you guys are buying high-end watches like dude is this a real thing is this fake am I wasting my time should I buy this watch I bought a watch for my wife it was I I I I well he'll tell you what the watch was we got it we had to get it
• 52:30 - 53:00 back I'll tell you where he came from it was very hard to find this watch but eventually came in and I got it for our 15year anniversary Vinnie I think you were there when we were at the Hamptons when we gave it to Jen it was because of Roman sharf he was very helpful in make yeah he's the one if he's on my only concern is he's like listen we just been very tough on Ukraine and Russia I don't want him to get upset because he is a you know it's a very Roman are you on or no Roman let's see if Roman's on or not I can't see you face no no it's just Roman do do we have
• 53:00 - 53:30 you on or no you should be on there we go he's probably got 50 watches on right now what's up Roman hey Pat how are you how are you Kudos on what you said about networking because networking is the very reason I got to meet you following those exact steps I always say I work with my competition not against them it was one of my competitors that introduced me to you first as a client and then later I ended up on your podcast the chair I'm sitting in is the same chair you're sitting on because the guy that gave you that chair showed up in my office out of the blue and gave me
• 53:30 - 54:00 this thing for free talk about networking I love but man has been amazing the watch you bought your wife was a lady's Aquin n PCH wonderful watch you were a little less minute so I had to bring it over from Hong Kong and so on and so forth but doesn't matter uh M first month when I was a novice right the very first League I'm in middleweight now right now by the way much uh first month I started this to do what to do exactly that to network I found eight new clients in the first 30 days I sold about $400,000 worth of watches and
• 54:00 - 54:30 I raised $3,000 for my charity every one of myx goes to my charity so for me it translates into dollars not only for my own business it also translate into dollars for my charity watchesg good.org where people I take every single man every dollar I make in man and it goes directly to my charity well we respect that man good for you but and by the way you Roman's not just a regular guy if you go online you type in his name Roman sharf on YouTube You'll see him all over the place Roman your business don't you guys do like a100 million you you built a real
• 54:30 - 55:00 business it's not a small business that I've been doing this about 20 years started out of my basement with 12,000 bucks I was in banking uh talk about networking and then I decided to go my own way and now with1 130 million business a year $130 million year business so whether you want to ask questions about a watch you want to buy somebody you want to know if it's real if it's fake you want to know about business dealing negotiation any of that stuff Roman's there for you as well Roman it may not be a bad idea for to create a circle as well for people that want I'm trying P but it's giving me an error on the image thing I was doing it
• 55:00 - 55:30 as you we're going to create the image for you we're going to create the image for you text them back and I told Paul to remove the image thing Paul if you're listening to it so people can apply if you again if you're having a text I already text one of you go okay but for anybody else that's creating the circle go to the support Manet Circle and ask him that they'll be able to help you from there as well Roman UD man I appreciate you and uh it's great having you on buddy yes perfect okay next do we have Justin Brock on Justin Brock is an insurance guy young guy sold his
• 55:30 - 56:00 business for I want to say $71 million uh literally $71 million and he is super super active on Manet Justin if you are on if you don't mind taking 30 seconds to minute and tell us how you're using Manet for your business there's Justin how you doing buddy what's up Pat thank you so much man yeah we uh we actually somebody on my PR team as we started to try to you reach out and find new audiences brought up Myck said you
• 56:00 - 56:30 should go on as an expert and immediately we go on and start getting people you know reaching out from our audience but then also people that I I never expected the the kind of people we'd get you know we're we're in the the Medicare arena is where we built our business but we work with agents all over and uh and I've even had Medicare beneficiaries like you know people that were retired reach out for advice on Medicare which I completely didn't expect um and then we've actually had some big Partnerships and so I kind of
• 56:30 - 57:00 got addicted to manting for the first few months we were on there and and I was like you know I could I could actually be the leader in our categories on here you know really make a play leaderboards like totally motivate me they did they did selling insurance and they do in man so I went to top of the category for a few months in a row um couple of months Andy Elliott really kept me from hitting the top he's a you know extremely extremely competitive guy and obviously has a great following too
• 57:00 - 57:30 um but as I would uh climb you know I got to get in the room I came to your cxo event it was kind of cool because you I raised my hand for something and you said oh you're Justin Brock you're doing great things on my neck so I'm like you know Pat Pat's noticing you know that's awesome and then um then I actually have gotten a couple of referrals now from people that said someone else on my neck recommended me and then a couple of them said Patrick Bet David recommended that's right I recommend you regularly what a strong
• 57:30 - 58:00 recommendation um so I'm a I'm a Manor for Life man I'm I'm definitely going to create a circle for sure I love it and by the way if you start a circle for Medicare insurance there's a big Community there so make sure you create that one as well and I'm sure there's going to be a lot of networking going on with that Justin proud of you sold business $71 million another guy you can man and learn from as well last but not least before we wrap up uh is I want to go to Andy Elliott and the reason why Andy Elliott Andy has been the super
• 58:00 - 58:30 heavyweight champion the last two months Vinnie just so you know that super heavyweight champion Andy Vinnie's not been happy about it uh uh Adam's been so upset he's been clubbing in Miami every night since then I mean he's just not been happy about it he's had a lot of his girlfriends that been trying to come him down and uh if we have Andy on Kelly I don't know if we have him or not if he's getting on let's see if he's got on this guy one thing about Andy is I ask him have a little bit more energy man he's just always monotone and yeah he's just now he's probably doing push-ups right they're probably his leaders ship team is probably dropping them all over the place there they are that's right
• 58:30 - 59:00 you're not in the states what's up Andy and Jackie how you guys doing great we're doing doing amazing 1: am in Dubai and we don't stop no no off switch you guys are amazing Andy tell us what do you love most about Manet well number one you nailed it in the beginning that everybody has a specialized skill okay and people cut the check for Speed and the cool thing about man is that it's not thousands and
• 59:00 - 59:30 thousands and thousands of dollars to learn from most people I mean literally you can spend 10 bucks and it can save you it can save you millions of dollars just by asking a simple question okay um so I love man because obviously it's your uh it's your app you built it and then obviously everybody that runs around you are always serious people looking for answers and we want to help everybody that's looking for answers and who want to win um another cool thing you said social media nobody works their own DMS anymore nobody works their own Facebook uh stuff anymore so like even
• 59:30 - 60:00 if I message the rock look even if somebody responds it's not gonna be the rock okay it's just a fact Patrick the way that you are your standards have always been so high you don't let people get in there and do the work for someone else and so I love it so when somebody messages me they get me now I want to tell you this we' been able to help Jackie she's with me all the time and she'll see every day I hit my manx and she knows it could be an 18-year-old kid it could be a billionaire it could be anybody and I honestly I don't know why
• 60:00 - 60:30 but I have become like a crackhead to this thing and I literally pour in here like somebody paid me a hundred grand for a one hour coaching call and I look up sometimes and it's 14 minutes in and I'm just like loading in everything I got and honestly I think it's because you changed our life so you built this thing so I want to make sure that we rep it at the highest level I just I I love it and uh you know I always say man you know people that are looking for answers like that's what this thing is for people that want help and if you want to change people's lives this is it we
• 60:30 - 61:00 built a ninef figure business in a couple uh years Me and Jackie have followed every move everything you've ever said that was going to be great uh has been great and so you know I mean I think my man deal is like super cheap so somebody can reach out and ask any question I've recreated my life I've re- ended in myself which is what you see it said and Pat I want to say one more thing you can ask any question but I created a 20 minute YouTube video because I'm I'm the heavyweight champ I'm running every month and I'm winning and nobody's ever going to beat me
• 61:00 - 61:30 because I know the game no I love the game I'm a competitor I'm a psycho competitor and I and you and I'll hit 2,000 points this month and you know then I'll hit 5,000 I'll hit 10,000 but I made a video before I got on this call a 20 minute video in I think it was in January it's my daughter's birthday and I was at the bottom of the board and I told Jackie I go I'm gonna come back in 10 days I'm gonna put up 1,300 points and I ran a play it was very easy it didn't take me a lot of time I helped a
• 61:30 - 62:00 lot of people and I would love to show everybody what I did to get my manck so I made a 20 minute video before this training if anybody wants to dominate manck if you'll hit me up on the neck and ask me one question and then put underneath it send me the video I'll answer your question and I'll literally drop you the video watch it run the Play You'll freaking kill it on manx you'll be very hard to beat and by the way Andy when you create the Elliott Army I'm really curious to what happens with that
• 62:00 - 62:30 uh Circle I'm really curious to know what's going to happen hug I I I'm I'm sure of it and I'm looking forward to it anyways enjoy your time in Dubai and I'm sure we'll see you guys at the Vault here soon and we'll see on the leaders bulletin you guys are doing great love you guys as well appreciate you guys G we're at the end here's all I'll tell you I'm getting messages with people trying to get on manck this is we've never ever in a history of it had this many people trying to get on man right now it's exciting uh and most people don't even have any idea what else the vision is with man next what we're
