Most entrepreneurs think they need better funnels, better ads, or better tactics.
But what if the real problem is this:
You’re not showing up.
In this episode of the 2 Comma Club Podcast, John Marsch sits down with Jason White, who built a thriving government contracting education business by doing something simple:
Going live. Showing up daily. Being real.
Jason breaks down:
• How he went from working at a gas station to federal contracting
• Why authenticity beats “lifestyle marketing”
• The difference between teaching people how to win vs teaching the process
• Why community creates accountability
• How showing up builds trust in a trust recession
If you’ve been:
• Posting but not converting
• Overthinking your content
• Hiding behind polished edits
• Waiting to “feel ready”
This episode will challenge you.
