From Alaskan Fishing Boats to Million-Dollar Relationships with Kevin Thompson
Let’s talk about how one man built a wildly successful marketing strategy—not through hacks, hype, or hustle—but by showing up, giving first, and playing the long game.
In this episode, I sit down with Kevin Thompson of Maximum Response and The Million Dollar Relationship Podcast. Kevin’s story is anything but typical. We’re talking commercial fishing in Alaska, carpet cleaning, and a publishing company… and that’s just the beginning.
Back in the late ‘90s, Kevin answered an ad—yep, old-school style—and discovered Joe Polish. That single move changed everything. It set him on a path of building real relationships in business, rooted in trust, generosity, and doing the right thing.
Kevin drops powerful insight on what it really takes to grow a business in a way that feels good and works. He’s been behind the scenes of six-figure partnerships and has helped countless others do the same—just by being who he is: genuine, generous, and smart as hell.
Here’s what people say about Kevin:
”He’s the real deal. I even picked up his system for my son!” —Bill Harris, Centerpointe
”We made $66K from a single project and it took me 10 minutes.” —Tim Larkin, Target Focus Training
”He lives by the principle: always show gratitude—monetarily, when possible.” —Joe Polish
This episode is packed with wisdom, laughs, and practical advice on building a business that lasts—one real relationship at a time.
🎙️ Listen in—you’ll walk away inspired to lead with heart and rethink how you show up in your own business.
