I grew up to a million followers and
didn't no one know it was me but I had
no idea what I was doing I didn't know
it was going to make money I didn't know
it was going to turn into a full-fledged
business my whole thing with millionaire
Mentor is we help people reach more
audience through social media most
people have no idea how to get 1 million
Instagram followers let alone 10.5
million today we're talking about the
real millionaire Mentor himself Jason
Stone and his rise to success maybe
teach you a little bit along the way
about how to yourself become a social
media influencer and how the industry
Works a little bit let's go ahead and
jump into it I started my first business
by selling parts on eBay and um I took a
one Co-op job while I was in college and
I decided and I was getting up at like
6:00 in the morning to drive 1 hour to
come back and like waste two hours of
driving I was like I one one semester of
co-oping while I was in college I
decided this is not for me I got to do
something about it I need to become an
entrepreneur start making my own money
cuz I knew I did not want to work for
anybody I was mowing lawns I saved up
mowing La I about 500 bucks to buy a
beater to then you know when I was 16 or
17 oh this so this is pre that's one of
my first Jobs first first like making
money on my own type of thing and you
know I would buy a car at the repo
auction and sell it I think for 500
bucks I made it 500 bucks so sold it for
1,000 and went back to the repo auction
bought another car you know I kept stack
a few thousand and you know that was
kind of during college I started my
first business on eBay of selling
junkyard parts from scrapyards I would I
would go to the scrapyard the junkyard
and with a backpack full of tools in 30°
weather wrenching on like turbo parts
that's my business today is
turbocharging and that's kind of how I
got into it um you know during my
college Years I would do that just to
make money on the side and to have some
money so I started selling on eBay and
that's how treadstone performance came
about that was my first real legit
business besides mowing lawns or
dishwashing or working at the produce or
something yeah this clip is to just kind
of set up who Jason Stone is for you he
is someone who since childhood has been
an entrepreneur worked his way up to
where he is at today I really appreciate
that because I myself am in that sense
the same way I actually decided to
forego College to try to make my dream
happen and actually thanks to a guy like
Jason it is able to happen I'm talking
to you here today now this first clip
was many years ago this next clip we're
going to look at happened just a couple
of months ago and this is Jason
discussing really how he moved from
treadstone working in cars to becoming a
social media magnate and along the way
teaching you quite a couple of things so
let's jump into it we were in Orlando
and I we WE Post all our pictures of
social media like I'd post stff going
out we post our food we post like
pictures of my watch and I was trying to
like do what was the norm back in the
day all you could do is post on
Instagram pictures there's no videos
there's no stories so we'd post that we
were out of town I was was in Orlando
and I get a notification to my phone
that the power at the house was
cut and I didn't think any of thing of
at the time I'm like oh power go back on
we lose power all the time uh so I
didn't think anything of it came home
two days later and I was walking up to
the front door and it was cracked open
and like I like just got chills now I
got chills I'm like oh like this
isn't good so I ran upstairs got my gun
that wasn't stolen and I started looking
around the house every was gone doors
were open was on the floor all my
wife's purses shoes even our clothes
designer clothes everything like gone
TVs like it was completely ransacked and
like and I'm running around the house
with my gun like looking around like
like rolling on the floor I'm just kid I
wasn't rolling but I was like7 in my
trying to ready to shoot somebody
and anyways long story short I'm like
social media gu us robbed and because
you showed pictures of your house we so
we were out of town I'm like why would
we ever use social media again to to put
ourselves in this place and and show
people they're out of town and that's
like a tip for you guys is like never
you shouldn't post pictures that you're
out of town if no one's going to be at
your house like at least have someone at
your house we always have someone at our
house that's good like big ass dogs yeah
well there you go security some sort of
security cuz that's the biggest people
follow you and they know you're out of
town and if someone wants to rob you
they're going to get you 100% yeah so so
you realize that was a mistake then
didn't you yeah and I know it was
someone that I either that I work with
or this this one of friend that I had
and couple weeks later I'm like we were
me and my wife were the the Hard Rock
had a couple drinks in us and I began in
a little fight and I'm like you know
what I deleted I deleted everything
Facebook Instagram gone so fast forward
another week and a half I'm like I saw
one of my friends making money on
Instagram and he was in the fitness
Niche and he has like ripped and he was
selling diet plans for like 100 bucks he
was selling 20 a day so he's making two
grand a day this is back in 2014 I'm
like how you're making two grand a day
selling diet plans on
Instagram and that's kind of
like like ball went off of my head I'm
like I need to get back on Instagram
there's something here I don't know what
it is and I just made the account it was
literally I typed out the word
millionaire me I'm like who wouldn't
want to follow that account who would to
want to learn and the reason I chose
milliona Mentor fast for even further
than that this was in my 20s I went to
college for mechanical engineering and I
started an engineering business called
treadstone performance engineering it's
a business I still have to this date 20
some years in the making runs completely
by itself so I was semis successful back
then you know I was already a
millionaire and I always thought of
myself as a good teacher my friends
would come around people would ask me
questions about business and I kind of
hid behind that account for a year or
two I grew up to a million followers and
didn't know one know it was me but I had
no idea what I was doing I didn't know
it was going to make money I didn't know
it was going to turn into a full-fledged
business but what were you doing just
posting pictures Lambos what was a
millionaire Mentor we posting lifestyle
pictures the pictures that I couldn't
post on my original account that people
knew I was posting cool quotes back then
there was only like quote pages and then
lifestyle luxury pages so I kind of
combine the two into one so luxury
lifestyle entrepreneur motivational
inspirational quotes I started putting
cuz I fought a lot of luxury accounts
fought a lot of quote accounts the black
and white quotes and I kind of merge the
two together I've been wanting to do
that but my whole thing with millionaire
Mentor is we help people reach more
audience through social media a lot of
people are trying Facebook ads spend a
lot of money on Facebook ads well we can
take that ad spend come over to
influencer marketing on
Instagram and do it a doing a little bit
way different way than most people do it
because we're not going after
influencers we're going after big
accounts like the millionaire mentor and
other big theme pages that could be in
the niche of real estate or Fitness or
health and we're going after those Niche
Pages putting their content on and
distributing their content getting them
more followers for their clients now
that was Jason's discussion with Bradley
TV it is a great podcast to check out
but I want you to check out this next
one with the Wolf of Wall Street the
real man himself on his podcast Jason
gets down to business and actually ends
up teaching the wolf quite a few things
it seems that Jason really has an
understanding of the market that even
The Wolf of Wall Street does not and
that's pretty impressive to be able to
outclass him in business but if you
don't believe me just check this out
everybody's posting the Highlight Reel
of their stories they don't post the bad
the ugly the fights everybody's posting
what we want you to see the facade and
making think that everybody's happy so
that that that that like people trying
to compete with that it's like competing
with the Joneses and it's hard like
steroids right it's like
thaton steroids right so that that's one
of my goals is to become more vulnerable
on social media because people think
that our life is perfect they see me and
my wife they travel the kids the the
This and like we're traveling almost
every month but people don't really know
who we are right and we need to show
more of that and I think that's what
social media is going to turn into and
that authentic vulner side of people is
what's going to build that genuine
connection and really get people to like
you your raving fans are going to love
you even more and I highly recommend you
check out the rest of his podcast with
Jordan because he ends up talking a lot
about business and in fact taught me
quite a couple of things that I didn't
even realize about running things on
Instagram or social media in general but
my friends thank you very much for
stopping by this video today that
concludes us discussing Jason Stone the
real millionaire mentor and I hope to
see you soon
