I was on CNBC’s “THE PROFIT” building FUNNELS!

So... did you hear that recently I had a chance to be on the TV show "The Profit" !?!

I'll tell you the full story about HOW in a second, but it was SO FUN to actually build a funnel on TV, I had to grab the clip for you to see.

Check it out here:

If you haven't seen "The Profit" before, it's one of my FAVORITE shows. Each week, Marcus Lemonis (AKA The Profit) picks a company that's struggling, and he comes in and saves their businesses...

I've binge-watched almost every episode, and that's why I was so excited when at our second Funnel Hacking Live, we were lucky enough to have Marcus Lemonis actually come and speak!

What a lot of people DON'T know is the story that happened right before Marcus got on stage...

We setup a 30 minute meeting with him before his presentation.

When he walked into the room everyone knew who was in charge.

He started asking us "what is ClickFunnels... what is a funnel?"

So we explained to him two or three times what a funnel was and then all of the sudden he got it...

"Wait a minute? How would we use a funnel for this business?"

And we told him...

"How would I use a funnel for this business?"

And we told him...

"And this one?"

And we told him...

Right then he had the same epiphany I had over a decade ago...

"So you're telling me that EVERY business needs a funnel?"

I said "YES!"...

So his next comment was "we need to get you on the show!"

As you can imagine, my heart started to flutter and I almost passed out because I was so excited... and I probably would have if it weren't for the fact that in about 5 minutes he ran up to the stage and gave his presentation...

While he was speaking I had visions of how cool it would be to actually be on The Profit...

But then I thought "Nah, that's probably not going to happen..."

But then the unthinkable happened:

About 2 weeks after our event I saw 3 or 4 missed calls on my phone from Marcus...

I thought he must be either really upset with me or he had something really cool...

So I immediately called him back... when he answered the phone this is what I heard from the other end:

"Russell, you're being filmed, is that okay?"

I said, "yes..."

He said, "OK, this is the deal: Right now I'm working with a company and they are in dire need of a sales funnel..."

"I told them the only way I'd do this deal is if you built their sales funnel for them..."

"Are you willing to build their sales funnel for them on The Profit?"

I tried not to pass out because I was so nervous and so excited... I wanted to scream at the top of my lungs...

But trying to act cool and casual I said, "Sure, I'd love to help you out."

That one call then turned into a trip to L.A. 2 weeks later...

We had the chance to sit down with one of the companies he was working with and build out not one... not two... but ELEVEN sales funnels for them!

This project was insane (and it turned out amazing!)

Now, why am I telling you this story?

First off, it's pretty dang cool, don't you think?...

It's not every day you get to hang out with someone like Marcus... let alone actually help build out sales funnels for businesses he's consulting...

Secondly, that episode of The Profit... the one that I got to be on where we built out the eleven funnels for the company...

For those who want to see it, you're in luck!

I just posted the clip online, and would love to share it with you today.

Watch My Clip From "The Profit" Here >>

One of the coolest things about this is that you're going to have a chance to see how we took a traditional e-commerce physical business and how we were able to use that to actually create a funnel!

I posted the link to my clip of the show here.

I hope this gives you some ideas and inspiration for your products, your services, as you're building out a funnel. Hope you love the episode.

Thanks,
Russell Brunson

P.S. - Don't forget, you're just one funnel away...
