    There’s a dangerous moment in marketing… when a lie gets wrapped so tightly in a feel-good story that people don’t just believe it - they defend it. And this week, I couldn’t shake that feeling as I watched the world celebrate someone whose business model quietly reshaped an entire generation. Not through force… but through framing. Because when you learn how to rename something controversial as something virtuous, you don’t have to convince people anymore - they’ll convince themselves. What you’re about to hear isn’t really about OnlyFans, or even the man behind it. It’s about a pattern - a playbook that’s been running for over 100 years. A playbook that turned cigarettes into symbols of freedom… and is now turning exploitation into empowerment. And once you see how it works, you’ll start recognizing it everywhere - in headlines, in culture, and even inside the marketing strategies we use every single day. Key Highlights: ◼️The “Reframe Formula” that transforms harmful products into movements people proudly support ◼️How Edward Bernays’ “Torches of Freedom” campaign mirrors modern creator economy narratives ◼️The hidden data behind OnlyFans: who actually profits… and who pays the real price ◼️The escalation trap - why platforms reward pushing boundaries further and further ◼️The ethical line every entrepreneur must face when using persuasion at scale At the end of the day, this episode isn’t about judging one platform or one person - it’s about understanding the responsibility that comes with influence. Because the same tools that can build billion-dollar companies… can also destroy lives if used the wrong way. The real question is: when you master the art of persuasion, will you use it to reveal truth… or to hide it? ◼️If you’ve got a product, offer, service… or idea… I’ll show you how to sell it (the RIGHT way) Register for my next event →⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://sellingonline.com/podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ◼️Still don’t have a funnel?

    The Propaganda Playbook: Holy War (How the Pentagon Is Selling a Crusade to American Troops) - #Marketing - Ep. 123

    There’s a moment when a message stops being information… and starts becoming identity. And when that shift happens, logic doesn’t just lose - it becomes irrelevant. That’s the thread I couldn’t stop pulling on this week. Because what’s unfolding right now isn’t just about war, politics, or headlines… it’s about one of the oldest persuasion frameworks ever created quietly running in real time. And once you see it, you can’t unsee it. In this episode, I break down what I call the “Moral Crusade” technique - how leaders take a cause and elevate it into something sacred. Drawing from Gustave Le Bon’s crowd psychology and the origins of modern propaganda, I show you how identity gets fused with belief… and why that fusion is so powerful it can move people beyond reason. Then I bring it back to what we do as entrepreneurs - because the same psychological drivers behind movements, religions, and even wars… are the exact same ones behind the most successful brands and communities in the world. Key Highlights: ◼️The “Sacred Propaganda” framework and why turning a cause into a belief system changes everything ◼️Gustave Le Bon’s 130-year-old discovery about crowds (and why it still runs the world today) ◼️How identity fusion makes people defend ideas like they’re defending themselves ◼️The real reason movements outperform products (and why logic alone never wins) ◼️The 5-part “Identity Stack” I’ve used to build tribes, not just customers At the end of the day, this episode isn’t about agreeing or disagreeing with what’s happening in the world - it’s about recognizing the pattern underneath it. Because once you understand how identity is shaped, you start to see the same mechanics everywhere… in media, in movements, and inside your own marketing. The real question is: are you consciously building something that empowers people… or accidentally creating something that controls them? ◼️If you’ve got a product, offer, service… or idea… I’ll show you how to sell it (the RIGHT way) Register for my next event →⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://sellingonline.com/podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ◼️Still don’t have a funnel?

    Three million pages drop overnight… and somehow, everyone walks away knowing less than they did before. That’s the paradox I couldn’t stop thinking about. Everyone’s arguing over names, sides, and headlines - but they’re missing the real story happening right in front of them. Because when you zoom out, what you’re actually watching isn’t transparency… it’s a masterclass in how information is controlled. And once you see the pattern, you realize this isn’t new - it’s been happening for over a hundred years. In this episode, I break down one of the most powerful persuasion techniques ever created: narrative control. Drawing from the work of Edward Bernays (the father of public relations), I walk you through how the sequence of information - not just the information itself - shapes what people believe. And then I connect it to something way closer to home: your marketing. Because the same exact framework being used to manage global narratives is the one I’ve used to build funnels, create movements, and scale companies to massive levels. Key Highlights: ◼️The 5-step “Narrative Control Sequence” (promise, delay, controlled release, flood, and algorithmic gate) ◼️Why overwhelming people with information can be more effective than hiding it ◼️The real meaning behind “whoever controls the sequence controls the belief” ◼️A wild historical breakdown of how Bernays made the color green fashionable to sell cigarettes ◼️How to ethically apply the same principles inside your funnels, ads, and customer journeys At the end of the day, this episode isn’t about politics or conspiracy theories - it’s about awareness and responsibility. Once you understand how narratives are built, you start to see them everywhere… in the news, in social media, and inside your own business. The real question is: are you intentionally building the world your customers step into… or are you accidentally letting someone else build it for you? ◼️If you’ve got a product, offer, service… or idea… I’ll show you how to sell it (the RIGHT way) Register for my next event →⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://sellingonline.com/podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ◼️Still don’t have a funnel?

I randomly was scrolling podcast to listen to, and thought to myself, “ just pick one.”… I am now on my third day straight of listening.

Full of wonderful ideas, secrets, and approaches to sales and obtaining clientele.
By being an outside the box thinker, Russel and his guests blew my mind.

Take five minutes and just click on one of his podcasts. You won’t regret it.
