They discuss how alignment brings clarity, why repetition reinforces values, and how actions must match words if you want your message to carry weight.

Because when you speak with one voice, people don’t just hear you—they trust you.

Episode Highlights: 

• The importance of speaking with one voice.
• The united front.
• Multiple voices cause confusion.

In this episode, Dale and Brian explore the Builder Stage—the third phase in the four-stage business journey. After navigating the Startup and Running Man phases, the Builder Stage marks a pivotal shift: business owners begin expanding beyond themselves. It’s a time of hiring a team, opening the “front door” to customers, and establishing deeper roots that bring real substance to the business.

The brothers discuss the transition from doing everything solo to building systems, delegating responsibilities, and stepping into true leadership. They share insights on how investing in people creates exponential returns, why developing a professional presence matters, and how strategy begins to take center stage as leaders reclaim their time.

The Builder Stage brings its own set of challenges—but also the potential for big wins, greater impact, and the freedom to finally work on the business instead of just in it. Whether listeners are in this stage now or moving toward it, this episode offers valuable perspective and encouragement to keep building something that lasts.

Episode Highlights: 

• Let’s Recap.
• Entering the Builder Stage.
• Owner’s Investment of Time and Money.
• Builder Stage Benefits.
• Working On the Business, Not Just In It.
• Why the Builder Stage Is Worth the Challenges.

In this episode of Impact Without Limits, the Karmie brothers continue their Business Stages series with the ‘Running Man’ Stage.

A "Running Man" is typically a one-person operation where the business is synonymous with the owner's name, like “Joe the Plumber” or “Mary the Landscaper.” Though they might have helpers or part-time assistance, the business only functions when that owner is actively working. They often trade time for money, hold tight to their earnings, and avoid investing in scalable growth. This model allows for control, flexibility, and even high income, but it can also lead to exhaustion, burnout, and limited growth. 

Dale and Brian reflect on their own experience in this stage and share how many businesses — an estimated 85%, according to their unofficial-but-usually-accurate numbers — get stuck here. While there’s nothing wrong with being a ‘Running Man’, the key takeaway is knowing whether you're there by default or by choice, and being honest about whether it’s sustainable for the life and business you want to build.

Tune in to hear how to recognize this stage and decide what’s next for your business journey.

Episode Highlights: 

• What is the ‘Running Man’ Stage?
• Why do so many stay in this stage?
• How to identify this stage.
• Potential pitfalls of the ‘Running Man’ Stage.
• Next Level Risk.

Whether you're launching something new or mentoring others who are, this episode will give you a framework to identify where you are—and what it takes to move ahead.

Episode Highlights: 

• Great minds think alike.
• Quick overview of the stages.
