Christian Ostmo is a multi-passionate serial entrepreneur who, at the age of 17, had already started down the entrepreneurial path by outsourcing his daily tasks working for a major web development company to a VA in another country, while he also held down a job at a sandwich shop in our small town of Ashland, Oregon. 

This passion for optimizing for efficiency allowed him to earn multiple income streams from various jobs simultaneously while still in high school and early on in his career, eventually having a hand in starting dozens of businesses, many of which are generating income for his family today.

Just a few of the golden takeaways Christian shares in this episode are how he has been able to maximize profitability by creating systems that make life more efficient, how Covid destroyed his most successful venture, brought him down to his last $400 unable to support his family, and how through sheer tenacity he was able to get things back on track by gaming the Door Dash, Grub Hub, and Uber Eats delivery model and creating a system that allowed him to earn over $12,000 in one month and get back on track to building new successful businesses and passive income streams over the past 3 years.

Joining TJ on the Adventurous Entrepreneurs Podcast today is Brandon Guthrie.

Brandon is the founder and owner of Dream Design Labs, a California-based digital marketing agency that helps premium, Kingdom-driven residential contractors scale from seven figures to eight figures, empowering them with the influence they need to make a positive impact on their community and the world at large. 

In this episode, Brandon shares what it was like to come back from the verge of death and a 5-day Coma to creating early success as a digital marketer and using his fast profits to rent Lamborghinis and fancy bachelor pads. When his beginner’s luck inevitably ran out, he lost everything and was forced to move back in with his parents. Aware of what was possible and armed with this valuable lesson in humility, Brandon shifted his focus away from personal gain to an obsessive drive to master the craft of digital marketing and deliver undeniable value to his clients. 

Today, Dream Design Labs has received multiple Two-Comma Club awards from Clickfunnels — an award given to users who drive $1 million in revenue from a single marketing funnel. Additionally, Brandon is the founder of #empathymarketingmovement and host of The Christian Contractors Podcast.
