“While the Cat (Joe Polish) is Away, the Genius Network Annual Event
Will Play…10X”

The Cat” (Joe Polish) is away on sabbatical – we won’t see him again until 2022. So, we’re going to “play 10X” by doing things at the 2021 Genius Network® Annual Event we’ve never done before to give you and other attendees the greatest experience ever!

I’m Timothy Paulson, and I can’t believe I’ve worked with Joe Polish now for twenty years (we both had hair back then)! In preparation for this year’s Annual Event, I, and the rest of Joe’s Genius Network team (Eunice, Denise, Gina, Francine, Kevin, Rahkeem, Chelsea, and Jack) asked each other, “what would Joe do for the 2021 Annual Event if he were here?” We even brainstormed the question with some of the Genius Network Members. Together we came up with some terrific answers - but we then asked ourselves a question Joe’s dear friend Dan Sullivan is famous for asking:

“How can we 10X this?”

At first, nobody said anything. We all kind of went quiet. The Genius Network Annual Events have always been amazing. And as a team we had already come up with a bunch of terrific ideas about this year’s Event. So, how in the world could we 10X these ideas?

Over time, BIG idea after idea came to us. In fact, we came up with six big 10X game changing strategies! These will make this year’s event EPIC (something you shouldn’t even dream of missing).

We began our discussion by laying a foundation for 10X by deciding on the theme of, “While the cat’s away, the Genius Network Annual Event is going to play…10X.” As simple as this seems, this theme unlocked our minds to next-level thinking, and we went way outside the box, including what we could do now that we may have to ask Joe forgiveness for later. I want to be clear that the 2021 Genius Network Annual Event has a big focus on you making MORE MONEY!

10x Strategy #1

Contests

It hit us like a ton of bricks! It seems obvious to us now, but it wasn’t at first. We’re going to have a CONTEST at the Annual Event! Actually, we’re going beyond that and we’re having TWO Contests with really cool prizes for the winners (wait until you hear what the big prize is [and how you may be able to win it])!

Twenty years ago, I helped Joe create and run his famous “Better Your Best Contest™” for his highest-level clients, where he gave away a big prize each year. We haven’t done anything big like it in Genus Network before – but that’s about to change! (Stay tuned…I’ll give you the details on the contests in a minute.)

10x Strategy #2

10x Connection, Collaboration & Contribution
with our “Perfect Match Strategy™”

After the breakthrough idea about having contests, we determined that to help 10X the experience we’ll find a way to facilitate more connection, collaboration and contribution between attendees than we’ve had before, utilizing our NEW “Perfect Match Strategy.” This will help 10X the experience for you. (I’ll share more details on this strategy below.)

10x Strategy #3

The 100K Panel

You’ve heard of the Genius Network 100K Group Joe started several years ago. The super-star Entrepreneurs who are part of the 100K Group pay $100,000 a year to be in the group, and remarkable results have come from it. For example, the collaboration between Dan Sullivan and Dr. Benjamin Hardy on writing books together (including their best-selling WHO Not HOW and their next book, The GAP and the GAIN) came as a result of connecting in the 100K group.

We’re going to have several of the 100K members participate in a panel discussion during the Annual Event. (You don’t have to pay 100K to get their best wisdom – they’re going to freely share it with you through this panel discussion and Q&A.) The panel will revolve around The Biggest Entrepreneurial Breakthroughs to Take Your Business to the Next Level in Record Time.

This is the first time this group of super-star Entrepreneurs – each a 100K Member – will be on a panel together. The sparks will fly, and I predict you’ll be blown away by what they’ll share with you.

PLUS…we’re also going to witness an invaluable interview with Dan Sullivan and Ben Hardy together regarding “The Gap and the Gain” that will be deep and eye-opening. They’ll discuss the high achievers’ guide to happiness, confidence, and success. (I can’t wait for this!)

10X Strategy #4:

The “Q-Team™” Panel

Not every Genius Network member is an extravert. In fact, some of the smartest and most successful Members are not as well known. For example, Garnet Morris (100K Member) is an absolute genius who owns a company that is the largest seller of Life Insurance (by a factor of 10 times!) in all of Canada. Garnet’s business increased 37% during the pandemic and he recently told us how: “My company didn’t focus on what we couldn’t do during the pandemic – we focused on what we could do.” We’ve invited Garnet to participate with others on “the Q-Team” (“Q” stands for quiet) as part of a panel of incredibly smart Genius Network Members who’ll discuss their best money-making strategies including “the golden gems hiding in your business right now.” Another of those participating on the panel is Kathryn Janicek. She’s an extrovert (she’s won 3 Emmy Awards) who is so new to Genius Network that Members haven’t heard much from her yet. She helps her clients stand-out, become sought-after thought-leaders, and perform better in the media and on stage. Her business increased 50% during the first year of the pandemic and is on target to do that (or more) again this year. Other GN Members will join Garnet and Kathryn on this panel. You’ll LOVE “The Q-Team!”

10x Strategy #5

Multiple $250K ideas…

$250K ideas come in health, wealth, and ELF. Our Ten-Minute Talks are designed to give $250K ideas, and those shared at this Annual Event will focus on helping you MAKE MORE MONEY. Those giving Ten-Minute Talks at the Annual Event are being handpicked and are incredible. If you want to make more money in your business by getting several huge ideas, this is the Event for you! (AND there’s going to be a contest for the best Ten-Minute Talk given [more on that in a minute].)

10x Strategy #6

Totally Cool Speakers

Next, we have some super-star guest speakers (would you expect otherwise?). Joe is one of the most well-connected people in the Entrepreneurial world, so we’ve had fabulous speakers at the Annual Events in the past. Because of his influence, even while on sabbatical, we’re thrilled to announce the following speakers:

Totally Cool Speaker #1: Jesse Cole

Jesse Cole was recently introduced to us by Dean Jackson. Jesse is the author of FIND YOUR YELLOW TUX: How to Be Successful by Standing Out, and founder of Fans First Entertainment and owner of the Savannah Bananas baseball team. His teams have had more than one million fans to their ballparks and have been featured on MSNBC, CNN, ESPN and Entrepreneur Magazine. The Bananas have been awarded Organization of the Year, Entrepreneur of the Year, Business of the Year and won the CPL baseball championship in their first year. Fans First Entertainment has been featured on theINC 5000 lists as one of the fastest growing companies in America. The Savannah Bananas have sold out every game since their first season and have a waiting list in the thousands for tickets. Jesse has been featured on over 500 podcasts and is an in-demand speaker. He’s the host of the Business Done Differently Podcast and has interviewed some of the world’s leading Entrepreneurs, authors, and speakers. You’ll love Jesse’s presentation – it’ll give you an entirely new perspective on how to take your business to the next level. He’ll share the Fans First Experience on how to stand out, be different, and create raving fans of both customers and employees.

Totally Cool Speaker #2: Evan Carmichael

Evan is the guy who has over 3 MILLION followers to his YouTube channel, and over 450,000 million views to his YouTube videos. (Can you even begin to wrap your mind around what those numbers mean?!) Genius Network Members have been exposed to some of Evan’s brilliance as he has done “YouTube Jam Sessions” in recent Genius Network meetings. When Evan heard the theme of this event revolves around 10X, he was anxious to join in and share his best 10X strategies for scaling your business. He’s going to “take off the gloves” and share his most prized and closely guarded content, including secrets about how to scale your business that he has not shared publicly before. (Can you afford to miss what Evan is going to bring to the Annual Event?) This presentation alone is worth attending the Annual Event for because it can help you take your business to the next level more quickly than ever. If you’re not yet where you want your business to be on YouTube, this presentation will change ALL of that for you.

Totally Cool Speaker/panelists #3: Max Goldberg & Casey Fleming



Joe Polish recently told me Max Goldberg is one of the most uniquely intelligent people he’s ever met! Max is an exciting 24-year-old Entrepreneur who worked as an Entrepreneur-in-Residence for Peter Diamandis, executing technical due diligence and business development across the XPRIZE Foundation, Singularity University, Bold Capital Partners, Fountain Therapeutics, and Peter’s recent book launch. Max earned the opportunity to work closely with Peter by winning a competition prize Peter put on a couple years ago where Max rose from 500 competitors to win and work side by side with him. Max will be joined by Casey Fleming, who has led the Cyber and Cyber Security industry as a senior executive visionary for over two decades. He was the founding managing director for IBM’s Cyber division. He also founded BLACKOPS Partners Corporation to specifically address the Cyber Security issue facing all companies, government agencies, military, universities and research organizations and continues to pioneer in Cyber Security.

If you don’t already know Casey, you can get a glimpse of his brilliance by watching the TEDx talk he gave titled “On the Frontlines of a War You Don’t Know About.” (We hope you’ll take 12 minutes to watch his talk to get a sense for the critically important topic Casey will be discussing with you.)


Totally Cool Speaker #4: Craig Shoemaker

Craig is a hilarious award-winning stand-up comedian…and much MORE. He’s an actor, author, writer, and producer, with a career in show business spanning over three decades. He was named Comedian of the Year at The American Comedy Awards on ABC and garnered two NATAS Emmy awards. His stand-up special, Daditude, aired on Showtime and Netflix. He has a big heart as shown through his Laughter Heals Foundation (LHF) which promotes the awareness of the powerful healing properties of laughter for our physical/mental/spiritual wellbeing and for the health of our relationships. Craig’s performance and talk at the Annual Event will both entertain and instruct us that laughter is the best medicine for the ills that face us today.

Totally Cool Speaker #5: Ned Hallowell

Ned is amazing! Edward “Ned” Hallowell is a dear friend of Joe Polish’s and has appeared at Genius Network Annual Events in the past and is always one of the most popular speakers. Ned is a Harvard trained M.D. and PhD and is founder of the Hallowell Centers for Cognitive and Emotional Health. He’s the author of over 20 popular books on the subject of ADHD, Overwhelm, Distraction, Connection, and more. He’s been on Oprah, Good Morning America, 60 Minutes, CNN, and Genius Network! He quite simply is the world’s #1 ADHD expert. He’s going to reveal things in his talk and Q&A, specifically for high-level Entrepreneurs like you, that just may change your life.

“Moderately Cool” Speaker: Timothy Paulson

Me? Really?

That’s right – while Joe’s away, I’m going to do something I’ve never done before. I’m going to share “Joe Polish’s Greatest Hits” – the 5 ½ remarkable Success Secrets I’ve discovered from working with Joe over the past 20 years, including “behind the scenes” insights that I probably should have first asked permission to share with you. But since “the cat’s away,” I’m going to reveal things I’ve discovered from and about Joe, some I don’t think he’s even aware of.

Here’s the deal: I’m retiring on 2/22/22. That’s my 60th birthday, and I’m retiring to start a new Ministry. (FYI, I’ve prepared for years for this, including earning a Master of Divinity [M.Div.] degree from Liberty University School of Divinity – and I’m currently working on a Doctor of Ministry [D.Min.] degree from Emory University/Candler School of Theology in Atlanta).

Prior to working with Joe, I was Vice-President of Hair Club for Men, where I helped Hair Club grow from $8 million a year all the way to $120 million a year. I worked closely with Sy Sperling (you may remember his famous marketing line, “I’m not only the Hair Club President, I’m also a client.”) After working with Joe for 20 years, I don’t have anything to lose by “parting the curtain” and sharing remarkable, one-of-a-kind strategies that I’ve observed from him. After speaking all over the world (including in Egypt, Australia, Europe, and throughout North America), this talk is going to kind of be my business “Swan Song.” What I have to share will be a “parting of the curtain” to reveal what I’m calling Joe’s Multi-Million-Dollar Success Blueprint on how he’s gone from a dead-broke Carpet Cleaner to a legendary Entrepreneur and world-changer. I’m serious – I’m sharing insights about Joe I don’t think he’s even conscious of. Joe’s so amazing – and you’ll hear things from me that you’ve never heard said about Joe and his success before. This talk will help to 10X the Genius Network Annual Event experience for you.

Here are the rest of the details on 10X Connection, Collaboration & Contribution… and about the two Contests.

10X Connection, Collaboration, and Contribution

Okay, I’ve just shared with you the Six 10X Strategies being offered at the 2021 Genius Network Annual Event. Here are the details on what we’re doing with Strategies #1 and #2:

The Genius Network Annual Event is about Connection, Collaboration, and Contribution.
Here’s how we’re going to 10X the experience for you.

Connection:

We’re going to have more INTERACTION and CONNECTION between attendees than ever at the Annual Event. The fact most will be attending virtually is going to provide the optimal environment for connecting with other attendees. We’ve been doing virtual and hybrid Genius Network meetings for the past year and a half now, and we’ve got them mastered. We have tools to facilitate your connection with like-minded Entrepreneurs to make sure your experience is life-changing.

Collaboration:

We’re going to spend more time on helping you solve your biggest issues and capitalize on your biggest opportunities. We’ve never been as meticulous as we are being this year in putting you in conversations leading to collaboration between right-fit attendees (you’ll be amazed at how valuable this will be for you). This involves the “PERFECT MATCH Process” I mentioned earlier. We’ll match you and other attendees up for breakout sessions based on your goals and interests that we’ll get from you in advance of the Annual Event. You’ll have the right conversations with the most right-fit attendees to get the breakthroughs you’re looking for.

Contribution:

Genius Network Members are natural givers who love to contribute. As mentioned, we’ll have valuable Ten-Minute Talks from Members who want to give their very best to the audience. The talks are being prepared to ensure each is worth at least $250K to attendees.

That leads to telling you about the thing I mentioned earlier that we’ve never done before – the Ten-Minute Talk CONTEST.

The Ten-Minute Talk Contest

After the Ten-Minute Talks have been given, we’re going to have a vote for the single most valuable Ten-Minute Talk given at the event. You’ll vote based on which Ten-Minute Talk will be the most valuable to you moving forward.

After the audience’s vote, the winner will be announced and will get the one and only Ten-Minute Talk Champion Trophy. Imagine how the Genius Network Members speaking will all be motivated to give you their very best $250K idea in ten minutes - the trophy’s on the line!

But that’s just the beginning. It gets better for you!

That leads to…

The 55-Day Implementation Contest YOU can compete in

We’re going to follow the Annual Event up with a 55-day Contest you may wish to participate in. It’s based on IMPLEMENTATION of any of the Ten-Minute Talks that you heard at the Annual Event.

Here’s how this’ll go:

The contest is to see who can get the best results from implementing any of the Ten-Minute Talks in the contest. Genius Network is about ideas worth using. So, the contest will start on November 6th and end on December 31, 2021.

We’ll give you all the details on how to compete in the contest when you come to the Annual Event. It won’t be complicated – in fact, it’ll be E.L.F. (Easy, Lucrative, and Fun)! It’ll basically be you implementing one of the Ten-Minute Talks in your business and reporting the results you get for the 55 days after the Annual Event ends.

The reason we’re doing this contest is to give you one more reason to TAKE the ACTION that’ll make attending this year’s Annual Event the best decision and investment you’ve ever made!

The Winner of the 55-Day Implementation Contest will get the Grand Prize of…

…DRUM ROLL PLEASE…

…A day with Joe Polish including half the time in private business consultation, and then some “super-happy-fun” times hanging out with Joe. Joe’s one of the most amazing business consultants I’ve ever observed (the use of the words “brilliant” and “awesome” are appropriate in describing Joe as a business consultant – no exaggeration), and one of the most fun guys I’ve ever hung out with. This’ll be an unforgettable experience for the contest winner, without any doubt!

“Wait, what? Does Joe know we’re giving this prize?”

As I mentioned before, “while the cat’s away, Genius Network will play!”

Joe charges $25,000 for a half-day consultation. And then, what’s the value of having additional time hanging out having fun with Joe? This prize could be priceless!

Can you imagine how awesome it would be for you to win this prize?

It all starts with your registration for the 2021 Genius Network Annual Event that’s happening November 4-5. You’ll be able to join us virtually from wherever you are in the world. (Is there any good reason to not join us for this?)

Here’s what you should do now:

  1. Reserve your spot in the Annual Event by registering now (go to www.GeniusNetwork.com/10Xevent TO REGISTER)
  2. Attend the virtual event on Nov 4-5. You’ll participate virtually right along with the other attendees.
  3. Actively Connect, Collaborate, and Contribute. Pay close attention to the Ten-Minute Talks, the 100K Group Panels, the “Q-Team” Panel, the Max Goldberg led Panel, and the talks given by Jesse Cole, Evan Carmichael, Craig Shoemaker, Ned Hallowell – and my talk revealing “Joe Polish’s 5 ½ Greatest Success Secrets!”
  4. Vote on the most valuable Ten-Minute Talk given at the Event.
  5. Compete (if you want to) in the 55-day Implementation contest between November 6th and December 31, 2021.
  6. Get FASTER results like you’ve never seen in your business before.

Come Join us to 10X Your Business

As you can see, while Joe’s away, we’re playing big time! And we’re giving away an incredible prize (that Joe doesn’t even know about yet). You’ll 10X your results because this is about implementing the things that’ll make you more money!

When Joe returns from his sabbatical, I think he’ll be astounded that his team was able to pull off the best Genius Network Annual Event ever without him even being there. He’ll be very, VERY happy about this – all he wants is to help Entrepreneurs eliminate suffering by taking their businesses to a higher level of success. He’ll be thrilled with what we’ve done to help you 10X. Joe’s always said Genius Network is about the Members, not about him or anyone else. This event will be one for the ages.

Come join us.

Go to www.GeniusNetwork.com/10Xevent to register now.

See you there!

20 Years Working with Joe Polish
Retiring on 2/22/22

PS. Joe Polish is on sabbatical this year in great part because of his confidence in his incredibly talented team. As a matter of fact, we’ve had attendees rate each Genius Network meeting for years, and it’s turned out that after each of the several Genius Network meetings we’ve done this year, attendees have ranked the meetings higher than any year previously! Joe left knowing his business was in the great hands of trusted and gifted people who have his and Genius Network Members’ best interests at heart. This is why Joe’s team has gone WAY OUTSIDE THE BOX to create the best Genius Network Annual Event possible to give attendees a 10X experience. When Joe returns, he’ll be delighted to learn of the value YOU received, and the results so many will get as a result of attending this Annual Event.

Join us by going to www.GeniusNetwork.com/10Xevent

PPS. Okay, another thing. Genius Network Member Lee Benson is not only an amazing Entrepreneur but is also a brilliant guitarist. He used to play in a band called 3 Degrees West that recorded albums way back in 1996-97. Anyway, Lee has a gorgeous music studio where he’s hosting a virtual party the night of November 5th after the Annual Event ends. He’ll be providing fun music and entertainment. The Genius Network Annual Event attendees will be joining virtually from around the world to enjoy the music and party atmosphere together.

Come Join us at www.GeniusNetwork.com/10Xevent

PPPS. One last thing. I recently heard Genius Network 100K member Ben Hardy talk about a term from psychology known as “Prospection” which is, whatever view you have of your future, that’s the thing driving your behavior, your mindset, and your identity in the present. This Annual Event will multiply the view of your future – this will help multiply your present profit producing actions. Dan Sullivan said, “the only way to make your present better is by making your future bigger.”

Come to the Annual Event to make your present better by making your future 10X bigger. www.GeniusNetwork.com/10Xevent
