He and his small team also work for a handful of companies, helping them overhaul their digital experience. His teams most recent win was taking an existing business and increasing its revenue by over $200,000 in three months. His credo? Clarity is king. Highlights:4 ways to increase revenue1.

4. Increasing the number of customers. (hardest to do) Take Away1. Value Creation Every successful business creates something of value.
2. Marketing Offering value isn’t enough. If no one knows (or cares) about what you have to offer, it doesn’t matter how much value you create.

"How far can I push this?"
This interview is loaded! Seriously, check out the highlights on this one for a glimpse into the things Brandon Kennington shares with Outlier on Air. Outlier initially wanted to interview Brandon because he was a successful inventor and we felt like he could give valuable insight to creating, patenting, and marketing a new product. However, this interview exceeded our expectations.
So, most of us do not hold a degree in Mechanical Engineering from Purdue like Brandon has, but there are many out there who get married and then buy a puppy together, right? I know I did. Brandon briefly tells us the story of how his successful Porch Potty came to be, but then he gets right down to business. According to Brandon, his greatest accomplishment was creating the system that makes his invention a success. Success is in the system.
Highlights:
Selling products through catalogs like SkyMall Automating/Creating and scaling systems Should you work for a corporation for awhile? Pricing experiences and strategy Why you shouldn't be scared of the competition Patents - Unique explanation and strategy Provisional patent versus utility patent MVP -Minimum Viable Product When to get financing Cautions against retail Steps to selling directly to the consumer Perceived Value Premium products Valuing yourself Cost per acquisition Product Fulfillment Is it possible to scale without hiring? Take Away
Be interested in everything. Anything is possible, if it's not it will be in 6 months! The hardest part is starting, then just keep moving forward.

Is this guy really lucky or is he on to something? Take a listen and get to know Brad and how he went from being broke to flying on a private plane and bringing in 4 million dollars worth of deals, all within 30 days. Seriously, how does that happen?! Brad says, "I was crazy, almost reckless...It probably was reckless, but worth it." Brad has created his own ideology centered around understanding yourself and creating value. Oftentimes we all get caught up in our business, but do we step back to genuinely understand ourselves? Brad Harker is writing the book on this topic, literally. Look out for his book to come out soon because I would wager to say that a guy with $400 million in career sales knows a thing or two about finding a successful niche, and that's worth reading.
