Andy Zitzmann and AJ Amyx are Co-Founders of the GAMETIME Movement where they help leaders and high achievers launch and monetize their message both offline and online.
Andy Zitzmann had an amazing corporate career, as he describes it, "kicking butt and making tons of money for 12 years." After becoming a workaholic, Andy hit rock bottom and realized all he could do was turn his life around. He realized he was meant for so much more and started The GAMETIME Movement to help others achieve their goals.
Andy came from rural Texas, toured in a rock band and has found his niche as a Twitter Strategist and Business Coach. His passion is to see people come alive and live to their full potential!
Andy and AJ are hosts of the Movement Marketing Summit where 50 A-list entrepreneurs share their best tips and tools to build a brand and launch a movement online. They are also hosts of a popular web show, GAMETIME TV. They provide motivation, mindset tips, marketing, and business tips. Andy and AJ interview game-changers, thought leaders, successful entrepreneurs, pro athletes, entertainers and other high achievers who are making a positive difference in the world by living true to their calling.
Their big mission is to motivate and inspire you to "Get Off the Sidelines", live to the fullest & find your maximum potential. They believe there is a GAMETIME Champion inside all of us!

Well, I have the horror of horrors occur in this podcast. As I was ending the recording, I noticed a message saying that the recording had been interrupted. Long story short, the recording failed!
I was so upset! This was a great interview with two passionate guys, and I was so excited to share their message.
Needless to say, I didn't want it to go to waste, so I created my own podcast sharing my notes from the interview. In it, I try to convey their energy and motivate you to check them out. These guys are great, and you need to hear what they have to say! So here's my take:
AJ says you need to take it down to the basics. Do not jump to methods first.
Don't get too fluffy but, rather, strip it down to the core....
What problem do you solve? Answer that.
Then identify who needs this. Who is the audience?
AJ had great counsel encouraging businesses to "niche your niche". First, be topic specific. Things really took off for him when he accepted being a Twitter Strategist as opposed to being a more general "Social Media Strategist." He still coaches on more than Twitter, but that's what opens the doors for him. Be specific!
Andy outlined the need for entrepreneurs to have a daily routine. They need to manage themselves well each day to have the focus to build their business and brand. He shared his daily routine...
Next we moved to growing your business and community.
AJ shared three strategies:
Andy noted that to build a community that is connected to you, you need to:
That's a synopsis of our awesome conversation that I lost! I hope I convey some of the expertise and energy these guys brought. I highly recommend you check them out. We spent the last part of the interview talking about their April 7 launch of the Movement Marketing Summit. Read more below...

The Movement Marketing Summit (www.movementmarketingsummit.com) is designed to help leaders and high-achievers, who are authors, speakers, coaches, consultants, build a brand and start a movement.

The goal of this summit is to give leaders and high-achievers a step-by-step system to build their brand, grow a targeted audience and learn how to market effectively to get their message out and get paid well. We have 50 35-45 minute pre-recorded video interviews that will train them on the 5 steps to dominating the game of becoming an expert and thought leader:
We will cover topics ranging from identifying your passion and purpose to selecting their target market, selecting your business/company name to sales, the frameworks to create products and programs to building your online platform and multiple promotional and traffic techniques.

I’m an Indiana Hoosier native where basketball is the top sport. Every team heads to the locker room at halftime to evaluate the first half and create a updated plan for the second half. That plan includes adjustments based on reviewing what worked and what didn't. The “halftime” is a key review point where the game stops, the team pulls away to huddle in the locker room away from the fans, and they come out prepared and ready to succeed in the second half.
That’s what this podcast is all about, taking the time to pull away for a bit to evaluate, learn, and set some strategies for your business to succeed in the second half. Join me by subscribing and let me be your “business halftime” to help you find great success going forward!
