In this episode of ClickFunnels Radio, Chris and Dante sit down with Paul Counts and Shreya Banerjee, a business duo who've generated over $100 million in revenue for their clients using a strategy called OPA - Other People's Audiences. Paul started selling pencils at 8 years old and was running email campaigns on dial-up at 13. Shreya left a stable corporate career chasing time freedom. Together they built an agency around one core belief: serve first, scale second. They break down the OPA method from scratch, walk through a real $1M funnel they built with Russell Brunson, and share exactly how they find, vet, and build partnerships that actually last - without spending a dollar on ads. If you're an entrepreneur looking to grow smarter, not just bigger, this one is for you. 00:00 Intro Bumper 00:26 Meet Paul &amp;amp; Shreya + Background 07:16 Personal Branding That Actually Sticks 09:11 Paul's Entrepreneur Journey (Early Hustles \u2192 Online) 14:19 Shreya's Shift (Corporate \u2192 Time Freedom) 18:53 How They Met + Built Their Agency 21:32 Why Live Events Matter More Than You Think 24:58 Visionary vs Operator (How They Work Together) 27:59 Building Authority First (DECA + Playing the Long Game) 32:19 Long-Term ROI vs Short-Term Thinking 35:01 OPA Strategy (Other People's Audiences Explained) 42:24 Real Examples of OPA Working 50:20 How to Start OPA From Scratch (No Audience Needed) 56:47 Choosing the Right Partners (And Avoiding Bad Ones) 58:52 PLR Funnels + Funnel Breakdown 01:09:25 What PLR Is + Why It Works 01:13:52 Starting With Nothing (Scrappy Strategy) 01:20:30 Overcoming Fear + Taking Action 01:27:06 AI, SEO &amp;amp; Staying Human 01:29:17 Where to Find Paul &amp;amp; Shreya Get 3 months of ClickFunnels for only $99 at the link below, that's an 83% discount to get started! https:\/\/www.clickfunnels.com\/cfradio ","author_name":"ClickFunnels Radio","author_url":"https:\/\/www.clickfunnels.com\/podcast","html":"<iframe title=\"Libsyn Player\" style=\"border: none\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/40766340\/height\/90\/theme\/custom\/thumbnail\/yes\/direction\/forward\/render-playlist\/no\/custom-color\/88AA3C\/\" height=\"90\" width=\"600\" scrolling=\"no\"  allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen><\/iframe>","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/assets.libsyn.com\/secure\/content\/200538610"}
