With Adam Gilad

As a coach it can be hard to differentiate yourself from every other coach out there. Are you tired of internet marketing? Of clicks and funnels? Of looking at people on a screen? Adam Gilad wants to help you build your business through the use of games. Games can be great fun but they can also be transformational. By using The Higher Gamer you can connect with clients by running transformational games events in your local community. We discuss how Adam’s games events work, the power of gameful engagement and why people need real connection.

It’s interesting that we have to read some definitions on words. Client to me mean someone who has signed a contract and offered up a retainer etcetera or who has actually made a purchase of service or product. So I’ll be curious to see how he defines client given that he’s creating a relationship in just 3 hours. I’m sure it’ll be fascinating. I’ll make every effort to catch the live broadcast.

You’re right. I think of clients that way too. But then… there are “potential clients” as opposed to Impressions or views.
I’ll be sure to ask Adam about it.

Shakespeare was clearly a games guy too… he said gthe world is a stage and everyone must play their part’, right? Wanted to mention that Adam shot a phenomenally simple and very impressive video a few years ago when he stood alone on a beach and talked about being proud of who you are. It was very powerful and has stayed with me. Thanks!

Play is something I can use a lot more of in my life and love to model that for others. Thanks for this interview and interaction Adam and Yifat.

Me too! What do they say – you don’t stop to play because you grow old, you grow old because you stop to play 😉
