Fueled by an unwavering passion for the growth and prosperity of small enterprises, my guest this week, Sid Graef, has embarked on a mission to empower these ventures to earn more while working less. A champion of freedom and a staunch believer in transforming businesses from burdens into blessings, Sid is dedicated to shaping the future of the home service industry, one podcast episode and one event at a time.

Mike Dahlke is a multifaceted entrepreneur, investor, and business expert who transitioned from the financial sector to pursue entrepreneurship after a transformative experience at the Global Christian Leadership Summit in 2011. His current endeavors revolve around nurturing home service companies and orchestrating strategic business turnarounds, leveraging his expertise in strategy and capital management.

In a world driven by curiosity and innovation, there are those who stand out as true trailblazers. Our guest, Dan Utley, is one such individual, a self-proclaimed tinkerer from childhood who left no electronic device unexplored. That insatiable curiosity set the stage for an illustrious career. Dan owns Letzgo Products, a US based company that manufactures products like dimmers and controllers for our industry.

Whether you're a seasoned entrepreneur or simply someone who loves to hear about the triumph of passion and persistence, this episode is tailor-made for you. Tune in as we uncover the nuggets of wisdom that John Martin, owner of Gleam Electrical, has acquired on his entrepreneurial expedition. John is not just your average business owner; he's a true wordsmith, wielding both his technical skills and his gift for communication to grow his business.

On this week's episode I speak with Pat Clark about how he helps business owners reach their goals and live out their "why". Transitioning from being an "Owner-Operator" to becoming an "Owner" by delegating responsibilities and empowering your team, you can free up your time to focus on strategic initiatives and growth opportunities. This shift allows you to step back from day-to-day operations and instead concentrate on building and expanding your business.
