The emotion, the commonalities, the lessons...all of that leads to a deepen relationship that translates into loyalty.Jason Hornung’s story is no different. He has been through the up’s and down’s as every entrepreneur does. He found his calling from the struggles of the process.Now, he brings his story of triumph to you in this episode of the Sell More podcast. Along with his tale of overcoming typical entrepreneurial hurdles, he shares with us a proven formula to maximizing profits using Facebook advertising. Introducing Jason Hornung: Jason started his career in the insurance world. He opened up an American Family agency. After years of the same old insurance type of marketing - knocking on doors and cold calling - Jason was burnt out. It was time for a change. It was time to get people to come to him. He turned to the wise and effective ways of Dan Kennedy. Jason bought his books and courses learning how to craft tremendous direct response marketing campaigns. The leads started to flow. He was receiving more quality leads than ever before. The results built a reputation for Jason. So much so that State Farm offered him a book of business.He gratefully accepting the opportunity and started to implement other forward thinking marketing efforts. However, with one newsletter send, Jason’s life forever.State Farm forced Jason out of the insurance business and into the world of online marketing. It didn’t start very smoothly. In a little over a year with $50,000 in credit card debt, falling further and further back in his mortgage payments, and just barely making $17,000 in revenue the first year...Jason was staring failure in the face. All he had was one last coaching session, thankfully so. The last piece advice he received would get him back on the right track. The coach opened his eyes to the agency world. He, now, runs one of the best Facebook Advertising agencies in the industry.
