Yeah, this is Dan and Ian from Bali, Indonesia. We have successfully found a Starbucks coffee shop.

And so what do you say? We get moving with another installment of Tropical Talk Radio in the most American way possible.

on how we started a million dollar honest to goodness product business while we

traveled the globe.

All right Ian, we're jacked up on caffeine.

If you guys get jacked and stick around with us for the rest of this episode, we're going

to talk about a little bit about SEO.

We're going to talk about mission statements versus plans and why we're really focused on

creating mission statements for our businesses this next year. And speaking of missions, Ian, we're going to do a million dollars this year. Yes. So it's a pretty incredible story. It's a little bit disconcerting. It's kind of crazy. We're going to talk about some lessons we learned there. Let's get started with SEO. First things first. This guy, Travis, that everybody's

Yeah, he probably likes to hang out in Bali more than he likes us. I like Travis, you know. So I'm sitting around

the bar with him the other night, and I, I turned to him and I say, Travis, be honest. How many people do you think in the United States know SEO better than you? And he looked at me and said, 500. Yeah, I think it's pretty accurate and you know what

does this stuff I didn't freak out I didn't like do the hoot and holler thing I just

kind of nod in my head and I was like this guy's this old foe might be accurate

about that here's the thing about why Travis probably knows more than everyone

except for 500 people is because he learned SEO out of necessity. Travis has a

health product and he had to find a way to get up through the Google rankings in order to sell

his product. I mean, this isn't a traditional business. He doesn't have product on the shelves in

some store. He is strictly selling through the internet. So it was a necessity for Travis to learn SEO.
