98: The Four Realms of Leadership, and Tinker 2026 12.12.2025

Change begins with a single person and a compelling idea. But no leader creates disruption alone. As innovators inspire others to join their cause, their influence grows—first incrementally, one per- son at a time, then exponentially as teams form, and finally infinitely as movements take on lives of their own. In 2026, our Tinker program will center around Leadership Development. In this podcast,...

97: Types of Coaching Calls 01.12.2025

Beginning in December, we're going to add more Coaching Calls to the Growth calendar. My goal: a client should be able to: Learn something new each month (teaching calls) Connect with their peers in the tribe each month (Community calls) Troubleshoot their sales and marketing each week (Specialist Calls) and talk to a coach any day (golden hour coaching calls). Here's the difference between each....

96: Converting and Retaining Clients 21.11.2025

It’s more important than ever to convert clients if you want to have clients. With more competition in the marketplace; more market headwinds; the decline of CF and the rise of bot-search, getting clients is harder than ever. That means it’s critical to keep the clients you have if you want to have 1:1 clients. Here’s the best path after reviewing a few hundred conversion calls. Get them a good RO...

95: Annual Plans: Should You Do Them for Growth Clients? 14.11.2025

Up to 2025 every Two-Brain client built an annual plan with a mentor — often over multiple calls. Too many of those plans were never used. In this episode Chris explains why we moved annual planning into the Tinker stage: Growth clients are firefighting and don’t have the bandwidth to build or use long-term plans. He explains who should still do an annual plan, what we’re doing instead (daily acce...

94: Toolkit Tour: Improving LEG 09.11.2025

Toolkit Tour - Improving LEG Summary Importance of Client Retention in Gyms 0:01 Keeping clients in a gym for an additional three months can earn the owner an extra $40,000 annually. Retention is crucial because it multiplies the value of other gym activities, such as marketing and client engagement. But we need to understand what actually improves retention, as many current ideas lack data to sup...

93: Toolkit Tour - Improving EHR 01.11.2025

Summary Improving Effective Hourly Rate (EHR) in Growth Phase 0:00 During the growth phase, entrepreneurs should prioritize client acquisition, retention, and profit over their effective hourly rate (EHR). The perfect day income is the first solve, followed by time, but entrepreneurs often focus too much on EHR, leading to business instability. Examples are given of gym owners living their perfect...

92: Toolkit Tour: Improving ROI 24.10.2025

In this Toolkit Tour episode of Help Best , Chris walks mentors through the ROI section and how to turn financial knowledge into client action — not busywork. Toolkit tour - ROI_otter_ai He breaks the ROI content into three practical areas: (1) Where is my money going? — an expense audit that helps clients find “hidden money,” set up recurring expenses in the dashboard, optimize before cutting, an...

91: Toolkit Tour - Increasing NOB 19.10.2025

Over the next six weeks, I'll walk you through our 2025 Toolkit upgrades. These updates are done all the time, with a 'big' update in the third quarter of each year.

This week: Increasing NOB. Here are the sections I'll walk...

86: Our job isn’t to invent new systems. It’s to implement Two-Brain. 20.08.2025

Why Two-Brain coaches must implement the Toolkit — not invent new systems. In this episode Chris explains why mentors are paid to help clients implement Two-Brain’s gym-tested, data-backed courses and Toolkit — not to invent new spreadsheets, substitute personal practices, or make “read this” the primary homework. He walks through the history (from one gym to hundreds), shows how small mentor vari...

85: Why We Stopped Giving Clients Books as Gifts 18.08.2025

When Two-Brain began, Chris loved giving clients thoughtful presents — often books. Over time we learned a hard lesson: reading can become an avoidance tool. Clients would hide behind “more knowledge” instead of completing mentor-assigned work, slowing momentum and reducing their return on mentorship. In this episode Chris explains why we no longer ship books to clients, uses Good to Great as a co...

84: AI, Bots, and Two-Brain Genies 06.08.2025

81: Frequency Vs Depth in Coaching 18.05.2025

In this episode, we explore the concept of frequency vs. depth in coaching and how mentors can maximize their time with clients based on their client avatar .

Key takeaways include: Green Avatars : High achievers who can handle larger, deeper tasks. Focus on big projects li...

80: How to Help First - And Grow the Tribe 11.05.2025

🎧 Intro: A Quick Recap In our last episode, I introduced the new Help First Referral Program : → Send someone to www.twobrainreferrals.com → They get $300 off. You get $300. This isn’t about sales.

As mentors, it's our job to guide them through the step-by-step process , ensuring they make the change with minimal risk and maximum benefit. Key topics covered: When to raise rates : If it's b...

77: Clarity Creates Confidence 20.04.2025

In today’s episode, we discuss how clarity creates confidence for your clients. As mentors, it’s tempting to provide multiple options or a detailed step-by-step plan to show off our expertise, but this complexity often overwhelms clients and diminishes their confidence. Instead, the key to success is to simplify and give clients one clear action step at a time . This approach helps them stay focus...

In today’s episode, we walk through the new Mentor Toolkit in the TwoBrain app, designed to help you find what you need faster and make your mentoring experience more efficient.

75: How Long Should A Client Stay in Two-Brain? 06.04.2025

In today’s episode, we answer a question that comes up often in our mentorship program: How long should a client stay in Two-Brain? The short answer is: until they’ve hit their NOB goal in the Growth phase or their Net Worth goal in the Tinker phase. But this wasn’t always the case, and we’ve evolved the way we think about this to focus on execution speed , not just retention. We used to focus on...
