The One Comma Club Challenge: Day 3 of 5 - Monetizing Your New Skill | #Marketing - Ep. 109
The Russell Brunson ShowShow Notes
In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show, we tackle the biggest sticking point for almost everyone once momentum starts building: selling. By day three of the challenge, many of you already had leads, conversations, and even people asking about funnels—but the real question was, how do you actually turn this into money without feeling awkward, pushy, or salesy? Today is about removing that fear completely and replacing it with a system that makes selling feel natural, ethical, and simple.
I’m joined by McCall Jones for a powerful training that shows you how to get clients without “closing” in the traditional sense. Instead of pressure, scripts, or high-stress sales tactics, she breaks down a clear, repeatable process that helps prospects want to pay you—often before you ever ask. This session is a turning point in the challenge, where funnel building stops being a hobby and starts becoming a real business skill you can monetize with confidence.
Key Highlights:
◼️Why most people don’t have a sales problem—they have a sales system problem
◼️How to use a free sample the right way so prospects naturally want more
◼️The “Hit By a Bus” framework for selling without pressure or pitching
◼️How to show value by highlighting before-and-after differences in a funnel
◼️Simple language shifts that turn conversations into paid projects
This episode is where everything clicks. You already know there’s demand. You already know you can build the thing. Now you know how to get paid for it—without becoming someone you’re not. Once you understand this approach, selling stops feeling scary and starts feeling like service. And that’s when this whole opportunity really opens up.

Last week I told you the story of everything that led up to launching ClickFunnels — my original “One Funnel Away.” I ended it like the hero coming home victorious with the elixir. But here’s the thing about a hero’s journey: it always has a sequel. And the sequel is where it gets real.
When I was a kid, I mailed 38 hand-stapled sales letters to names I picked at random out of the phone book, absolutely certain I was about to get rich. Zero people responded. That was my very first funnel — and it flopped like almost every one that came after it. I’ve failed at more funnels than anyone I know. And that’s exactly why I eventually found the one that changed everything.
I have millions of followers across every platform… and when I go live, maybe 150 people actually see it. Back in the Periscope days, I’d hit “go live” and five or six thousand people would show up instantly, and we’d just hang out — that’s how I really built this community. Then the algorithms changed and quietly took that away. So I built my own way around it.
For years people have asked me the same question: Russell, if you could only build one funnel, what’s the best one? And my answer always frustrates them — it depends. But here’s what almost nobody realizes: inside every business, there’s only ONE funnel that actually matters. You might look at the two hundred funnels I’ve built and think it’s chaos… it’s not. All the rest are just appendages to the one funnel that rules them all.
A year and a half ago, I walked off the Funnel Hacking Live stage, took my shoes off, and left them there — the wrestler’s way of saying a career is over. FHL 10 was “The Last Dance,” and I meant it. We shut it down, and I honestly didn’t know if it’d be a year, five years, or forever before we ever did anything like it again. Well, I’ve got news: it’s coming back — once. This September we’re doing a one-time-only encore called Funnel Hacking Live AI!
