ABOUT
This Is Who I Am…
My prior path was 6 years of Undergraduate/Masters Degrees that left me with $1,000’s in debt. After 3.5 years of a part time effort, I had replaced my teaching income. I now have created a lifelong passive income that surpassed a 30-40 year retirement income teaching. The billboard the company put my wife and I on in Dallas said….”Ambit Energy turned my 40 year plan into a 5 year plan.”
Outside of my passion for helping others achieve their financial goals, I love to spend quality time with my wife and two children. We also are very passionate about the many ministries of our local Church.
This Is WHO I Help…
I look for open minded individuals who know they are meant for more but haven’t yet found the combination of timing, opportunity and leadership to deliver results. We can help any person succeed with any background or level of experience because we only do 2 simple things. 90% of my partners start on a part time basis as they still have a full time job and other responsibilities.
This Is HOW I Help…
I EDUCATE my sphere of influence on the merits of Direct Selling and how this 100+ year old industry has made more BILLIONS in annual revenue than the entire GLOBAL movie and music industry combined. The power of Word of Mouth Advertising is here to stay.

Steve Reed is a certified life coach with nearly 30 years of experience. He is skilled at identifying issues and peeling back the layers to get to the core of what’s holding people back. It could be something someone said or did that caused you to build an artificial ceiling or roadblock. Until the issue is identified, you will never reach your full potential.
Life Coaching: With the right coach-client relationship, new milestones can be achieved. Whether it is in the area of relationships, communication, business, health & fitness, marriage, or personal development, coaching can be what future thinking people need.
Ziglar Choose to Win Coaching: Why do you get up to do the things you do? Are you building a business? Building a network marketing business? Private practice of some sort? What drives you each day? What are your dreams, desires and goals for your life? What is the fruit you would like to see? Have you ever stopped to ponder these questions?
Pre-Marriage & Marriage Coaching & Assessment: Marriage is one of our oldest institutions in existence. Sadly, too many people do not cherish this relationship as they should. Too many people treat their marriage as either a temporary thing, until something better comes along, or they consider it to be disposable, like a plastic water bottle or a Solo cup. When they are no longer “happy”, they throw that relationship away and look for a replacement.

ABOUT
My love for broadcast radio began when I was growing up in Chicagoland. One of my favorite radio hosts was Harry Porterfield, who did a regular feature about people in the city. This short segment stayed with me as I grew up and, after realizing a career in live theater was not my calling, I studied broadcasting at Indiana University in the mid-60s. While in college, I was an integral part of the I.U. Student Radio Network. Those were the days of spinning records live and reading the news and lists of where to attend protest rallies. My favorite disc at the time was the extended version of “In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida” by Iron Butterfly because it ran about 10 minutes. This allowed me enough time to get to the bathroom and back or to take a quick nap. I played that tune at least once every two hours!
After college, my radio career was put on hold because I had to report for military duty. While serving in Vietnam, I set up a “pirate” radio station in my battalion to play music, deliver the news and read letters from the troops. If this sounds familiar, it’s because I was doing what Adrian Cronauer did, only Cronauer was immortalized in the movie “Good Morning, Vietnam” starring Robin Williams.
Upon returning home, my broadcasting dreams took a backseat to a career in the women’s fashion retail arena, which was my family‘s business. That was until I retired and moved to Frisco, Texas, to be close to my grandson. Here I met Mark Wariner, the station owner and producer of KVGI radio. I approached Wariner to offer my services to write and record commercials; instead, Wariner, hearing my baritone voice, asked if I would be interested in hosting my own program.
Having waited for more than 50 years for an offer like that, I jumped at the chance and said that I would like to do a show called “Someone You Should Know.” I then started a second show “Something To Talk About.” Later, I brought in DFW Networking Diva Christine Deane as my new producer and I added the new talk shows “Trash Talk” with humorist Brandon Novara and “Opposite Saxes” with my wife Lauren.
Who knew that you could have this much fun in retirement??

For over 19 years, John Snell has been educating, counseling, and even inspiring couples and individuals to make wise financial decisions about their mortgage needs.
When working with John, you can count on the following:
- Straight talk, honest answers, and a thorough education on the mortgage process
- Availability after “bankers hours” and on weekends to fit your schedule
- Guaranteed lender fees when most others offer only “estimates”
- Attendance at your closing to ensure everything goes smoothly
- A long list of references (good lenders have references, make sure you ask)
The process of obtaining a mortgage has become increasingly complex over the last two years. Whether it be harsh government regulations with unintended consequences or ever-tightening underwriting requirements, you cannot afford to trust anyone but a true professional to handle your financing needs.
