We were privileged today to talk with Trevor Blake about the power of entrepreneurship and his story coming from a poor background to having built seven successful companies!  All of this has made him hundreds of millions of dollars and allowed him to travel the world.

He taught us here about finding and solving problems for consumers.  We covered the importance of never saying it's too late (he started his first company at age 43).  We talked about being creative and following intuition as well as the all-important "proof-of-concept" topic.  We covered dream clients, finding the right people (for your company), overdelivering value, controlling what you can control and much, much more!  Visit https://threesimplesteps.com/ for more information.  Let's go!

We talk in this episode about the power of social media and creating value within a predetermined niche.  We talk about the double-edged sword of social media in its power for outreach as well as being a life-sucking distraction.  We talked about the difference of learning vs. earning.  We talk about finding and reaching your dream client and ultimately going from consumer to CREATOR!  Take action!  Let's go!

Why do you think they say someone is "running around like a chicken with its head cut off"?  There are several reasons, the primary of which is they don't have their head on straight to stay FOCUSED!  We talk in this episode about regularly reassessing and revamping on the path of execution.  

At the end of the day, it is all about doing ONE THING very well.  We cover how a friend had all these lofty goals, but never achieved them last year due to this very phenomenon.  We talk about the principle of becoming specialized in order to DOMINATE.  

We tell some of our story about how focusing led to much larger sales virtually overnight.  As you grow, you can add more value - more complementing services... As long as you keep your eye on the ball!  Let's go!

We talk at length in this episode about how YOU are your own secret weapon.  We talk about avoiding the noise surrounding the news, politicians, etc.  We also covered how it's important that we protect capitalism.

We went on to discuss the parallels of the story "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade" in searching for a "holy grail" to solve our problems.  We talk about how there is no magical pill or "holy grail" in our physical health or even in business.  We talk about the truth related to experience and gradually moving towards goals.  Hard work has to be done and we need to figure out our next five moves.  Let's go!

We had an impressive conversation with Jason Barnard about all things digital marketing and optimizing your results on the SERP (search engine results page) to build your brand.  He tells how this fit in with an animated series about a blue dog that he was involved with. 

In this episode, we talk at length with impressive entrepreneur McKay Vowls.  He tells his story of starting out newly married with very little income and building investments on the side.  He had been in the military and was working as a paramedic when they started to acquire rental properties.  

McKay talks about the importance of frugality and cash flow and how that all fed into them starting a successful property management company.  He talks about finding leaders and how creating multiple streams of passive income was his key to retire.  He even shares some important tips on how to find properties now in a unique real estate atmosphere.  Let's go!

Today's episode is all about COMMITMENT.  I woke up with a cramp and pain in my backside.  After several attempted remedies - pills, Icy Hot, stretches, etc - it wouldn't go away.  But I persevered because of my commitment.

We talk further about human nature to find reasons not to follow through.  We share examples from YouTube ad campaigns and the "baptism by fire" that takes place as you learn to pivot and build your income and sales.  Let's go!

We talk in this episode about avoiding wasting time and resources because it's all limited.  We further explain the importance of planning and setting goals.  We talk about my speaking gig with Patrick Bet-David and some lessons there.  We talked about individuals in our company who are making massive strive forwards and exceeding their goals.

We go on to talk about personal development, reading books and absorbing positive material.  We elaborate on that with the importance of reviewing what's worked in the past and writing goals so you see them everywhere consistently.  Let's go!

We covered a lot of ground in this episode surrounding real estate and why having assets in that realm is crucial.  We talked about the nature and risks of inflation, the value in multi-family properties built in the right locations.  We talked about the housing shortage and the building of condos as well as office-to-apartment conversions.

We covered topics related to the evolution of home purchase lending as well as exit strategies when building condominiums or holding onto apartments.  We talked about creating passive income for investors and the meaning of real estate syndication, among many other important topics.  Let's go!

Troy Broussard is dynamic and highly knowledgeable software engineer with a strong military and nuclear engineering background.  He shared with us how he developed a "burning desire" for independence and why he thanks his sister for that.  He told us about living outside of the USA, especially Brazil, and the impact and perspective that gave.  

He talked at length about the often-squandered massive opportunities in America for those who are willing to work.  He told more of his background being raised up in the corporate world, getting involved in real estate and losing EVERYTHING in 2008.  He even shared more about the military-instilled attitude of perseverance and the importance of admitting ignorance.  He shared so much more including why his services are for "the professional marketer that values their time."  Let's go!
