Declaração de fatos de Blair Singer

Vocês devem estar cientes de que o relacionamento entre T Harv Eker e a Experiencia de Sucesso (ES) está oscilante.  O objetivo desta carta é fornecer uma declaração de fatos sobre alguns dos eventos recentes.

Como alguns de vocês sabem, sou o instrutor do programa Train the Trainer (TTT), que realizamos com sucesso a milhares de pessoas ao longo dos últimos anos no Brasil.  Esse programa estava programado para acontecer de 18 a 21 de janeiro de 2020.

Lembramos à ES de nossos termos, que deveríamos receber nosso pagamento, no máximo, 30 dias antes do início do evento, senão não iríamos ensinar o programa.  Esse prazo de pagamento seria em 18 de dezembro de 2019.  Por causa do feriado de Natal, permitimos que a ES fizesse os pagamentos até o final do ano.  Não recebemos o pagamento e nem resposta resposta alguma após repetidas tentativas de contato com eles.

Finalmente, recebemos um texto da ES em 26 de dezembro nos dizendo que “o evento provavelmente não vai acontecer”.  A partir desse momento, não houve mais comunicação por parte deles.  Também não recebemos pagamento algum. De acordo com nossa política, informamos que o TTT seria retirado de nossa agenda.

Lamentamos que essa situação tenha ocorrido. Enquanto os procedimentos legais são concluídos, saibam que proporcionar uma educação da mais alta qualidade a todos vocês ainda é o nosso objetivo. Pedimos sua paciência, apoio e cooperação para novamente levar uma educação transformadora para o Brasil.

Em relação à alteração de datas do programa Train the Trainer

O Train the Trainer no Brazil foi originalmente agendado e confirmado para os dias 18 a 20 de outubro de 2019.  Isso foi confirmado pela ES e pelo Leandro.  Em 20 de agosto, a Danile entrou em contato com nosso escritório em Phoenix para saber se haveria outras datas disponíveis, caso o TTT de outubro tivesse de ser adiado.   Nosso escritório passou algumas datas preliminares opcionais.  Leandro, então, entrou em contato conosco em três de setembro para perguntar sobre a mudança das datas para o início de 2020.  Nós não tivemos nem nunca tivemos um conflito com as datas de outubro.  Com base no pedido da ES, concordamos em alterar as datas do TTT para janeiro de 2020.

No final de setembro e em outubro, recebemos avisos de que a ES estava enviando aos alunos informações de que o motivo da alteração das datas do TTT de outubro fora devido a um conflito na minha agenda.  Isso não é verdade.  Quando perguntei pessoalmente ao Leandro em 14 de outubro, ele admitiu o enagano e nos garantiu que cuidaria do erro de comunicação.  Isso não foi feito e a mensagem de setembro ainda está circulando.  Quem quis mudar as datas do TTT de outubro foi a ES, não foi nosso escritório e nem eu.  Se estiver interessado em saber por que eles pediram essa alteração, sugiro que pergunte diretamente a eles.

Em relação ao Programa Adicional Entrepeneur vendido no Sales Explosion em fevereiro de 2019

Em fevereiro de 2019, realizamos um programa de dois dias em São Paulo, o Sales Explosion. Ao final desse programa, oferecemos um ‘futuro’ programa de empreendedorismo para quem estivesse interessado, que seria realizado em algum momento de 2019.  Era para ser um programa com vários palestrantes, comigo e com vários colegas treinadores do mundo todo.  A ES coletou o dinheiro das inscrições desse evento futuro.  Eu não recebi dinheiro algum dessas inscrições.  Esse dinheiro foi para a ES apenas.

Meu acordo com a ES era que eu/nós iríamos ao Brasil para esse futuro evento pagando nossos próprios custos e não cobraríamos uma taxa pela condução do programa.  O acordo era que eu e os outros palestrantes só seríamos recompensados com qualquer coisa que vendêssemos naquele evento ‘futuro’, e que também dividiríamos/compartilharíamos isso com a ES.  Isso foi feito como um gesto de apoio à ES.

Esse programa ainda não foi agendado.  Várias datas foram discutidas no final mais para o fim do ano, que acabaram não funcionando, porque já tínhamos eventos pré-agendados nessas datas ou não havia hábil suficiente para articular os outros palestrantes.  Esse programa ainda está pendente.  Embora outros palestrantes possam não estar tão interessados em vir ao Brasil neste momento, devido à situação atual, ainda estou comprometido em oferecer um treinamento de alto nível para os que adquiriram o programa junto com os que ganharam bônus extras de treinamento.

Minha sugestão à ES em novembro foi de que, se não conseguíssemos entregar isso em tempo hábil, a ES deveria devolver o dinheiro aos que solicitassem.  Caso contrário, precisaríamos agendar uma data com tempo hábil adequado para que todos pudessem se programar.

Espero que esses fatos possam trazer esclarecimento aos envolvidos.    Obrigado por sua compreensão e paciência. Obrigado por sua paixão por aprendizado e crescimento.  Estou profundamente honrado e grato pelas oportunidades de trabalhar com vocês e espero que possamos reconciliar os problemas logo e oferecer um ótimo treinamento para ajudá-lo a alcançar seus objetivos.

Seja o seu melhor,

Blair Singer

 

To Students and Friends in Brazil

Statement of facts from Blair Singer

You may be aware that the relationship between T Harv Eker and Experiencia Sucesso (ES) is in fluctuation.  The purpose of this letter is to give you a statement of facts regarding some of the recent events.

As some of you know, I am the trainer for the Train the Trainer (TTT) program which we have successfully delivered to thousands of people over the years in Brazil.  That program was scheduled for 18-21 January 2020.

We reminded ES of our terms of delivery which is to have all funds paid no later than 30 days in advance of the start of the event or we would not come to teach the program.  That deadline for payment would have been 18 December 2019.  Because of the Christmas Holiday , we allowed until the end of the year for ES to make the payments.  We received no money and no response after repeated attempts to contact them.

Finally we received a text on December 26 from ES telling us that,  “the event is probably not going to happen.”  From that point on there was no further communication from them.  We also received no funds. As per our policy, we notified them that the TTT would be taken off our calendar.

We feel sad that this situation has occurred. As the legal proceedings work their way out, just know that delivering the highest quality education is still our goal for all of you. We ask for your patience, support and cooperation to once again bring life changing education to Brazil.

Regarding the Change of dates of the Train the Trainer Program

The Train the Trainer for Brazil was originally scheduled and confirmed for October 18-20 2019.  This was confirmed by ES and Leandro.  On 20 August, Danile contacted our office in Phoenix to inquire if there might be other available dates if October TTT had to be postponed.   Our office gave some preliminary optional dates.  Leandro then contacted us in September 3 to ask about moving the dates to early 2020.  We did not have, nor did we ever have a conflict with the October dates.  Based upon ES request, we agreed to change the dates of the TTT to January 2020.

In late September and October we received notice that information was being sent out by ES to students that the reason for changing the dates of the October TTT was because of a conflict in my schedule.  This was not true.  When I personally asked Leandro about it on the 14th of October, he admitted to the mistake and assured us that he would take care of the error in communication.  This has not been done and the September message is still in circulation.  The desire to move the October TTT dates were the desires of ES, not our office or myself.  If you are interested in why they requested that change, I suggest you inquire with them directly.

Regarding the Additional Entrepreneur Program sold at the Sales Explosion Program in February 2019

In February of 2019 we conducted a Sales Explosion two day program in Sao Paulo. At the end of that program we offered a ‘future’ entrepreneurial program for those interested to be conducted sometime later in 2019.  It was to be a multi-speaker program utilizing myself and several of my training colleagues from around the world.  ES collected the money and registrations for that future event.  I have received no money from any of those registrations.  Those funds are for ES only.

My agreement with ES was that I/we would come to Brazil for that future event at our own expense and take no fees for conducting the program.  The agreement was that myself and the other speakers would only be compensated by anything we marketed at that ‘future’ event which we would also split/share with ES.  This was done as a gesture of support for ES.

That program has not yet been scheduled.  Several dates were discussed later in the year that did not work, either because we already had events pre-booked on those dates or did not give enough lead time to organize the other speakers.  That program is still outstanding.  While other speakers may not be so keen to come to Brazil at this time due to the situation, I am still committed to delivering a high caliber training to those who purchased the program along with those who earned the extra coaching bonuses.

My recommendation to ES in November, was that if we are unable to deliver this in a timely manner, ES should give the money back to those who request it.  Otherwise we need to schedule a date with adequate lead time for everyone’s schedules.

I hope these facts give clarity to those involved.    Thank you for your understanding and patience. Thank you for your passion for learning and growing.  I am deeply honored and grateful for the opportunities to work with you and I am hopeful that we can reconcile the issues at hand soon and provide great training to assist you in achieving your goals.

Be your best,

Blair Singer

Get to know Jason Chessar: Certified BSTA Coach

Being successful in business takes a lot of hard work, not magic. However, for Jason Chessar, it’s both.

At an early age, Jason fought with the demons of low self-confidence and taunting from other kids.  During that time, he became intrigued with magic and decided he wanted to be a magician. It was through that quest, where he learned to build self-confidence by being mentored by the best in the industry, It wasn’t an easy road for him. He faced many challenges initially that he ultimately overcame with his passion and sound mentorship. Eventually, he started his own entertainment agency, successfully taking his act to private parties and business events. But, over time, he realized he wanted to do more than entertain.  He wanted to help others that were struggling with some of the same issues he had during his own personal journey.  Now, he’s using everything he has learned about conquering fear and self-doubt and building a successful business to serve others as a business coach, helping people around the world to achieve the best version of themselves for greater success and happiness.

He’s also a valuable asset to my team as a level 2 certified coach — part of an elite group of people who have completed the Blair Singer Certified Trainer Program. Currently, he lives in Ontario, Canada with his wife and newborn daughter.  Through his training and his coaching business, he’s still got some tricks up his sleeve. I’m excited to introduce him to you in this interview below.

The following interview, conducted by a member of my team, is edited for brevity and clarity.

Q: Where did you first learn about Blair Singer?

Jason: About 6 years ago, I found myself with my entertainment agency, and I was mentally struggling. I was having a hard time running my business, and I needed some inspiration.

I then came across and went to T. Harv Eker’s Millionaire Mind Intensive, and Blair was speaking there. I decided to then go to his Train the Trainer event, even though at the time I wasn’t training, nor did I think about being a trainer. But it was during that event that I knew I was meant for something more than just being a performer.

Q: How did you start your business?

Jason: When I was about 12, my father took me to a magic show, and I instantly fell in love. I was a very shy kid, so it didn’t seem to necessarily make sense that I would want to pursue magic. But, after training with some local magicians, I learned confidence, stage presence, and performance.

Once I felt comfortable in my craft, I started my entertainment agency, selling my acts locally and then eventually across state lines. I performed at birthday parties, weddings, even business events.

Q: What did you find particularly hard about running a business? How did you overcome those challenges?

Jason: I loved magic. I had, and still have, a very strong passion for the craft. But that alone isn’t enough to run a business.

I’m used to overcoming challenges. It wasn’t easy becoming a performer. I had bad social anxiety when I was younger. I’m partially deaf, and that affected my speech, too. I went through a lot of therapy and training to learn how to work with this, and I used magic to build my confidence, leading me to where I am today. I didn’t let those things prevent me from succeeding, and I wasn’t going to give up on my business, too.

But just like in magic, I needed mentors to motivate and train me in business. I attended Blair’s events, participated in his programs, read lots of books, and met lots of others who were facing the same challenges I was facing… all of that helped me to push through the challenges of being an entrepreneur.

Q: What made you decide to become a coach and mentor? Why choose that route in life?

Jason: I always knew I was meant for something more. I felt it myself, and in everything I did.

I learned a lot through magic and starting my own business. When I was learning to become a performer, I created templates to help me speak in public. I created flowcharts to help me respond quickly to whatever happened around me, whether it’s someone reacting to my performance, or when something unexpected happens during my acts. That same thought process actually works in business and networking, too.

I decided to take what I’ve learned and help others with it. When I saw that what I was teaching was helping others achieve their goals and dreams, I knew this is what I was destined to do. The selfless act of supporting others with knowledge gained through my own experience and from other mentors gives me happiness.

Q: What books do you recommend?

Jason: Influence by Robert Cialdini has been very beneficial to me, and I recommend that everyone read this book. With Blair and our team, we are reading through Big Potential by Shawn Achor and The Obstacle is the Way by Ryan Holiday, both of which are great books as well.

If anyone wants to join my book club, you can read along with me Law of Success by Napolean Hill. I’m learning a lot from this book, and know that others will too, no matter where they are in business.

Q: What’s a personal motto you live by?

Jason: If I never quit, I’ll never fail, and it’s nice knowing that I’ll never fail in life!

Recruiting the Best Salespeople When You Have Little Money

Just about any business needs good salespeople. In order to sustain your company, you need someone who can bring in new clients so that you can focus on the business itself. But, what if you have no money?

Well, lucky for you, you don’t need a lot of money. Studies have shown that people aren’t always motivated by a bigger salary, and job satisfaction depends on more than just money.

In my business, I have more than 200 people around the world as a part of my team. And, I don’t pay any of them — they actually pay me. To learn more about how you can attract top salespeople for your business when big payouts aren’t yet an option, check out my recent Entrepreneur.com article here.

We all need help achieving our goals. No matter what stage of business you’re at, you could always use some guidance or mentoring to help you get to that next level.

Get to know Lynda Gale: Certified BSTA Coach

“Lynda Gale is a “coach’s coach.”  If you were in great need, completely stressed, and wanted to know that the person you were working with would never give up on you and always be there for you, it would be Lynda.  Her deep caring for others coupled with her incredibly clear version of “tough love” gives the people around her and her clients the love and growth they need simultaneously. Her soft spoken manner sometimes hides the deep strength she shows as a coach… hidden that is until you begin working with her as a client or team mate.  She is first to support and first to serve when it comes to our global team.   That is why she is such a wonderful asset to all of us.

For most of her life, Lynda has loved to study and understand human behavior. In fact, she still loves it so much, that she’s built her business, 3P Concepts, around her passions, where she coaches other people in business and life by understanding their true passions and strengths.  Although she is based in scenic Mackay, Queensland in Australia, she’s transformed hundreds of lives around the globe, and I’m very excited to introduce her to you.

The following interview, conducted by a member of my team, was edited for brevity and clarity.

Q: How did you first come across Blair Singer?

Lynda: I attended Train the Trainer and Making the Stage in 2012. There were a lot of great speakers there, but I especially resonated with Blair. He was not the typical “in-your-face” salesman, and yet he was a very effective and moving speaker. I was intrigued, and because of my interest in human behavior, I knew I had to learn more about him — who he was on and off stage, and the people he surrounded himself with.

Q: What were you doing before you met Blair?

Lynda: I had spent over 20 years teaching in Australia, teaching in formal education and in workplace training. I’ve built training programs for many people and organizations, especially those in hospitality, which was sort of a focus for me at the time.

Q: Why do you do what you do? Why this particular focus?

Lynda: I’ve always had a passion for understanding human behavior. I grew up in a town of 600 people, so it became one of my favorite pastimes to observe and analyze people. I decided I wanted to do it full-time, after I had completed training workshops for hospitality employees for a job I had. I noticed a drastic change in their productivity and happiness, and a drop in workplace incidents, after receiving even just a little bit of care and attention. That feeling I had when I saw the payoff was gold. That’s when I knew that this is what I wanted to do. So, I moved beyond just hospitality and created training programs for other businesses.

Q: Where do you get your inspiration from?

Lynda: I love books, especially from authors who have been there and done that. Of course I loved John C. Maxwell’s The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership, Robert Kiyosaki’s Rich Dad Poor Dad, and Napolean HIll’s Think and Grow Rich. Those books taught me so much about business, and have inspired me to be better. Oh, and one underrated book I’ve enjoyed was Florence Littauer’s Personality Plus — a wonderful book.

Q: What’s keeping you busy these days?

Lynda: Right now, I’m working on the Get It Done program with Blair, which is very exciting and is going to helps a lot of people around the world. I’m also creating my own online course and learning software, and I’m about to launch a new website soon. My husband travels a lot for work, so when he’s here, we like to go exploring our beautiful local area and enjoy the place where we are.

Q: Mackay looks beautiful. Exploring it seems like a good way to stay fit. How else do you focus on your physical and mental health?

Lynda: Blair introduced us to Mack Newton, who’s very good at motivating us. I train with him online, and I also do pilates. Mentally, I read a lot. I am a big believer in ensuring that you’re always learning. Even when you’re coaching, you’re learning too — learning about others and their lessons, learning how to be present, etc.

Q: Do you have any advice for people who are thinking about certification through BSTA?

Lynda: The certification program has changed the way I do business. My revenue is a lot higher, and I’m a lot more confident in myself. But what you learn in certification goes beyond just knowledge — you become part of a team. And not just any team. This is a team who’s committed to achieving success, and helping you along the way. They are all across the globe, and I can pick up the phone and chat with any of them. That sort of resource is invaluable. Together, we’re creating new platforms and programs that will help countless people globally. The connections and friendships I’ve made… you can’t put a price on that.

Q: What’s your favorite phrase to live by?

Lynda: “This is happening to me now, what I do next will determine the outcome.”

Get to know Mac Attram: Level 2 Certified BSTA Coach

Mac Attram is a successful serial entrepreneur, a published book author, and a huge asset to our team and a great friend. He is currently a level 2 Blair Singer Training Academy Certified Trainer and Coach, and the founder of Mindspace Associates, a business-growth service for small to medium-sized businesses. He speaks to hundreds of thousands of people in over 15 countries around the world and is one of the top lead trainers of the popular Millionaire Mind Intensive programs. His own entrepreneurial programs have transformed thousands of lives and companies. Mac and his personal story are truly inspiring!   

The following interview has been edited for brevity and clarity.

Q: Take us to the beginning — what prompted your journey into entrepreneurship?

Mac: I earned an MBA during school, and went straight into work after I graduated. I worked for three different companies, before I realized how much I did not enjoy it. The work environment was very disheartening, and I found that I was putting in way too much energy, and not getting nearly enough return. I then made the move to start my own IT company with two other partners.  We eventually grew it to 12 members on our team.

Q: How was that experience of having your own company? Where is it now?

Mac: I loved it, however, the situation was not ideal. At the time, I was married, had a child, and a second one on the way. I was working 90 hours a week. I knew it could be better, but I wasn’t sure how.

It was then when I started reading books and attending business seminars, and I eventually came across T. Harv Eker and his programs. I took all the knowledge I had learned, applied it to my business, fixed it up, and then sold it, getting my life back! After that, I started another company in real estate, and eventually grew that into a multimillion dollar business.

Q: How did you get into business coaching after all that?

Mac: Through the T. Harv Eker programs, I came across Blair Singer and his Train the Trainer event in 2005, and I bought into it all. I spent the next few years absorbing all I could about leadership, personal development, and sales. And then in 2010, I went with his group to a 5-day event in Malaysia.  That is when I decided to join Blair’s franchise, where I had the opportunity to train thousands of people.

Though that franchise has since dissolved, I was determined to stay active in Blair’s community. The people who work with Blair have created such a unique community — it’s truly second to none. Then in 2011, the Master Facilitator Program was launched.  At that point, I was on track to become a Level 2 Certified Coach with the Blair Singer Training Academy.

Q: Sounds like coaching was a passion for you. Why?

Mac: After attending Train the Trainer, I knew deep down that this is what I wanted to do for a long time, helping other people achieve their dreams. I have a lot of experience to draw knowledge from, and being able to help others… seeing them grow and reach their goals is a unique feeling you can’t get anywhere else.

To reach even more people, I also wrote a book, that’s now a top seller on Amazon. It’s called Face It & Fix It: How To Avoid Disaster And Turn Around Your Small Business, and it’s designed to help entrepreneurs address issues head on. If you don’t “face it and fix it,” then the problem never goes away, and it’ll come back to hurt you later on. The book contains over 40 reasons why small business fail, and strategies on each of those, and also includes real-life case studies of businesses saved from failure.

Q: What else keeps you busy right now?

Mac: Well, right now I am still happily married, going on 18 years now, and we have three wonderful children. I have been, and still do martial arts going on 30 years now, and I am currently a black belt, 5th band. Exercise is so important in my life, and it should be for everyone! I’m also reading a book that I believe Blair has read too, called The Obstacle is the Way by Ryan Holiday.

Q: What piece of advice do you have for those looking to become a Blair Singer Certified Coach?

Mac: There are not many trainers who can teach you like Blair. If you want to be a great coach, this is the way to go. His program is world-class and unique, and the community of trainers is unlike any other.

Q: Thank you for sharing your story and insight with us today. Got any last words for the readers?

Mac: Take full responsibility for your life!
