This is a topic we’re pretty passionate about…not working just to “get your hours in”. So many companies require their employees to get all their hours, but this is usually more expensive, less effective, and promotes poor work ethic. This episode goes deep into how to break free from old-school thinking about hours and adjust your company to focus on what really matters…productivity.

We decided to go into our take on health and culture in this side conversation. This is a conversation about taking care of yourself that kinda spilled into different aspects of culture. It all ties into business, but as a Side Conversation it’s definitely opinionated.

This is a different episode from our normal style. In fact, we debate back and forth as to whether this episode should be a side conversation, but really this episode goes into some pretty advanced concepts about pricing for major expansions. So if you want to dig a little deeper into pricing strategies and all the unforeseen nuances on growth expansion this is a great episode for you. Also, this episode dives into a case study of a current expansion that Ryan is working on. It’s a unique listen, we hope you enjoy.

Welcome to Part 1 of a 3 part series on Zombie Businesses. This is a term we've coined to talk about businesses that are essentially the “living dead”, meaning they're in business but aren't really alive or thriving. This is a common issue in small businesses so we want to prepare you on how to not become a zombie yourself and how to stay away from getting infected by other zombies.

Welcome to our side conversation all about custom houses. This is our take on how we should rethink the way we live and how we build (and a few other tangents along the way)
