    He Calls It Wall Street's Dirtiest Secret: Why $2 Million Only Pays $80K a Year | Ep 28
    2026/07/30

    Seventeen rental properties in four years, all bought while working a corporate medical sales job. That is how Ryan D. Lee engineered enough passive income to walk into his boss's office, get offered a promotion, and quit on the spot. His net worth had crashed from over $100,000 to $28,000 during the 2008 financial crisis, and that moment rewired everything he believed about investing, retirement, and financial freedom.


    What makes Ryan different is who trusts him with their money. Russell Brunson, the founder of Clickfunnels, hired Ryan after privately admitting he was terrified of losing everything again (00:18:20:08). Ryan's approach strips away Wall Street speculation and replaces it with cash flow from real assets, tax-free income strategies, and a system built for entrepreneurs who are great at making money but terrible at keeping it. If you have ever wondered why your income keeps rising but your freedom does not, this one is for you.

  • Melodie Moore: “Your $400K CRM Won't Fix a Broken Business” | EP 27

    Melodie Moore: “Your $400K CRM Won't Fix a Broken Business” | EP 27
    2026/07/23

    After a decade building a seven figure technology firm serving multi-million dollar businesses, Melodie Moore discovered that the biggest bottleneck in every company she touched was never the software. It was the fact that nobody on the team had been trained to think about systems rather than just execute tasks inside them. That realization led her to codify an entirely new role she calls the Technologist, and it changed how she hires, trains, and scales.


    In this conversation, Melodie breaks down her "thinking tax" framework for evaluating team members, explains why paying people more money never solved the problem, and shares how AI is creating a dangerous illusion of progress for founders who are not careful. If you are scaling past six figures and wondering why adding more people and more tools keeps making things harder, this episode will reframe everything.


    Chapters:

    (00:00) Introduction

    (02:42) How Business Tech Ninjas Started

    (08:05) Tracking Processes Day 1

    (17:28) Differentiating Signal vs Noise in a Growing Business

    (26:17) Biggest Hiring Mistakes

    (32:57) Training Your Team to Think

    (41:01) AI and the Illusion of Progress

    (46:31) The Future of Courses and Personalization

    (49:52) Final Advice for Entrepreneurs


    Melodie says paying people more never solves the underlying problem. Comment below: do you agree or disagree?

    $100K/Month Founder: "People Can't Talk to Ads" How Live Events Built Her Brand | EP 26
    2026/07/16

    A $50 per day ad budget. No investors. No branding agency. And $100K in monthly sales within 11 months of launching. Lindsey Burwell built The Patch Method, a transdermal wellness patch company, from her living room after a decade of working with women whose supplements weren't actually being absorbed. She paid her first team member in free product, grew by sponsoring Pilates classes, and now runs 15 live events a week across multiple states.


    What makes this story different is what she refused to do. No fancy website launch. No six figure branding package. No scaling through paid acquisition. Instead she built a direct to consumer brand the way most people say is impossible: one customer at a time, face to face, with a product that actually works. Now she's preparing for a nationwide launch in Sprouts. If you're building a product business and wondering whether community can actually replace ad spend, this one's for you.


    Chapters:

    (00:00) Introduction

    (04:00) The Night That Changed Everything

    (06:49) Waking Up to $99,888 in Sales

    (14:28) Fear of Being Seen Held Her Back

    (21:01) Launching the First Patch

    (30:00) Scaling Without Ads

    (41:16) Expanding to New Cities

    (44:28) Staying Lean as You Scale

    (49:54) Landing a Nationwide Sprouts Deal

    (59:13) Advice for Early Stage Founders

  • Pricing Expert: "You're Repelling Money" The Belief That's Blocking Your Next $100K | Ep 25

    Pricing Expert: "You're Repelling Money" The Belief That's Blocking Your Next $100K | Ep 25
    2026/07/09

    Erin B. Haag, founder of Pricing Overhaul and author of Give Yourself a Raise, joins Michael Hunter on the Six Fig Podcast to share how she built and sold three companies, hit her first six figure month by cutting every offer down to one, and now trains coaches to help business owners stop bleeding profit. After years of running a successful Pilates studio with the wrong pricing model, the stress of an unprofitable business eventually landed her in the hospital. Three years after fixing her pricing, she sold that same studio for 40x.


    Most entrepreneurs think they have a lead generation problem. Erin argues the real issue is almost always a pricing problem. She sets pricing at 50% capacity, believes discounting is a death sentence for any service business, and makes the case that the fastest path to a six figure month is not more clients but fewer offers at a higher price point. If you are working harder than ever and still not keeping enough of what you earn, this conversation will change how you think about your business model entirely.

    Achieving Financial Freedom Is Way Simpler Than You Think | EP 24
    2026/07/02

    Twenty-three rental units, zero dollars down, and financial freedom by 36. Then a business partner lawsuit stripped it all away. Mike Fritz rebuilt from a family member's spare room to raising nearly $100 million in capital for real estate and manufacturing acquisitions, buying companies in industries he had zero experience in, and sleeping better now than he did at the top.


    What makes Mike different is not the comeback story. It is his framework for understanding why most entrepreneurs set 10x revenue goals without preparing for 10x pressure. His take on studying what speeds and slows your customer's spending is the kind of lens that separates operators from optimists. If you are scaling past six figures and wondering why the weight feels heavier than the win, this one is for you.


    Chapters:

    (00:00) Introduction

    (02:23) Entrepreneurship at 12 Years Old

    (08:08) The Path to Financial Freedom at 36

    (13:13) Defining Wealth on Your Own Terms

    (32:16) Should New Entrepreneurs Acquire Businesses?

    (48:42) Building a Marriage Through Entrepreneurship

    2026/06/18
    A man who weighed 120 pounds in a hospital bed at 36, penniless and homeless, walked into a one room website shop a few years later and talked his way into a job he was technically overqualified for. That shop became GetUWired, a multi seven figure digital marketing agency with over 35 full time employees, serving some of the biggest names in the online business world. Before any of that, Dobbin Buck built museums at Epcot Center, shook hands with Apollo astronauts, and lived on the top floor of the Museum of Sex in Manhattan.What makes Dobbin different is not the comeback story, it is what he built on the other side of it. A leadership style rooted in stillness instead of stress. A belief that net profit and quality of life matter more than any revenue badge.

    Hitting Your Income Goal Can Quietly Destroy You With Shawn Pollard | EP 21
    2026/06/11

    A $39 course. A guy with 400 YouTube subscribers. A garage in Oklahoma during Covid. That is where a multi eight figure business started, and Shawn Pollard was the man behind the curtain who made it happen. After 21 years running flagship car dealerships and earning $300K a year, Shawn lost nearly everything to a six year battle with addiction that burned through $700K in savings. Eight months into sobriety, he found a sales trainer nobody had heard of, quit his job, moved his family across the country, and helped build one of the most recognizable personal brands in the sales training space.


    What makes Shawn different is what he learned on the other side. He will tell you that your marriage is the foundation of your business, not the other way around. He asked his wife one question that changed everything, and her answer broke him open. If you are a man building something and your home life is falling apart, this episode was made for you.


    Chapters:

    (00:00) Introduction

    (05:07) His Son's Emergency Heart Surgery

    (10:54) Six Years Lost to Addiction

    (20:00) 51 Days in Oklahoma Building From Zero
