In this thought-provoking interview, we delve into why Russell Brunson's perspective on sales funnels might not be as foolproof as it seems. We dissect key points and offer alternative insights to challenge the conventional wisdom surrounding sales funnels. With Special Guest Georgiana Laudi From Forget The Funnel Agency And The Best Selling Book "Forget The Funnel." https://forgetthefunnel.com/ #1 - Georgiana, what are the most significant misunderstandings companies make connected funnels and their growth strategies? #2—Can you give a couple of tips on how web design freelancers and agencies can help their clients improve their websites and get better results for clients? #3 - My most significant criticism of your book is linked to what Steve Jobs is quoted as saying. “Some people say, "Give the customers what they want." But that's not my approach. Our job is to figure out what they will want before they do. I think Henry Ford once said, "If I'd asked customers what they wanted, they would have told me, 'A faster horse!'" People don't know what they want until you show it to them. That's why I never rely on market research. Our task is to read things not yet on the page.” How would you respond to this criticism? #4 - I wonder if you can give us one or two of the most suppressing responses that you have received connected to the launch of the book that you didn't expect? #5 - How will AI change funnel-building in the next 18 months? #6—If you had your time machine (H. G. Wells) and could travel back to the beginning of your career and business journey, what key piece of advice would you give yourself?

Gain unique insights into his entrepreneurial journey, leadership philosophy at Automattic, and exciting updates on what’s next for WordPress. Dive deep into this thought-provoking discussion by being part of our exclusive show. #1 - Matt, we are now In the fifth year of the Gutenberg project. Recently, great progress has been made, but many in the WordPress community are still worried about the progress speed and the project's fundamental direction. What are your views on this? #2 - Do you feel it's possible with a semi-open source project like WordPress, which has around 43% to 45% of the market share, for it to be both a professional (actual agency level tool) and an all-embracing DIY solution similar to Wix is this possible? #3 - Recently, many of us watched Open AI semi-imploded. From the outside looking in, it seemed inherent stresses between what open-source objectives are and what commercial capitalism looks for and requires fell in the conflict. What are your views connected to what has happened inside OpenAI and its problems with governance? What alignment or similarity can we infer between WP and OpenAI? #4 - A few years ago, you made the public statement that you were the "benevolent dictator" of WordPress. Have your views on this particular statement changed, and if not, why do you feel this situation is okay connected to one of the most significant open-source projects on the web? #5 - With some personal reflection, do you regret making some of your recent public statements on X (formally known as Twitter) connected to what might be seen as real problems related to a possible unbalance of "power dynamics?" #6 - If you return to a time machine at the beginning of your business journey, what advice would you give yourself? A new birth of WordPress -- and that WordPress of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the web.
