Side Hustle Squad

Day 2 in San Antonio and things are heating up. We're back at Sponsor Games with Justin Moore, and the conversations have gone from introductions to real opportunities. In this episode, we break down what changed from Day 1, stronger connections, clearer brand alignment, and the kind of conversations that actually lead to partnerships. We're seeing firsthand how creators position themselves, how brands evaluate opportunities, and what it really takes to stand out in a room like this. We also take you inside PodHouse San Antonio—where the conversations don't stop when the event ends. This is where deeper relationships are built, content gets created, and collaborations come to life.

If Day 1 was about showing up, Day 2 is about leveling up.

On this episode, Mike Garvey, Eric Triplett and JT Triplett discuss the necessity of defining specific goals when attending conferences and trade shows. While staying at PodHouse San Antonio for Sponsor Games, we talk about how most people return from a conference without any ROI because they lacked a strategic game plan. Triplett explains his methods for proactive networking, such as using intentional "elevator pitches" and analyzing the room to identify valuable assets.

Recorded live from PodHouse in Las Vegas, Mike is joined by Larry Delli Santi and John Pajak to break down the real-world benefits of using Relay Financial as their go-to banking platform for growing service businesses. This isn't theory — it's how they actually manage cash flow across multiple companies, crews, and projects.

The guys dive into why having multiple accounts under one roof is a game-changer, how it simplifies budgeting and profit planning, and why separating funds for taxes, payroll, operating expenses, and savings can dramatically reduce financial stress. If you've ever felt like your business money is one big pile instead of a clear system, this episode will show you a smarter way to stay organized and in control.

Whether you're a solo operator or running a multi-crew operation, you'll walk away with practical insights on how the right banking setup can help you scale with confidence — not chaos.

Key Topics Covered:

• Why multiple bank accounts beat one "everything" account

• How Relay helps organize money by purpose

• Simplifying taxes, payroll, and expenses

• Real examples from growing home service businesses

• Building financial clarity as you scale

I just got back from Charlotte, North Carolina, where I attended official dealer training as part of launching ROPED — Robotic Outdoor Power Equipment Distributors. This wasn't just a product demo… it was a full behind-the-scenes look at what it really takes to become a robotic mower dealer.

In this episode, I share my hands-on experience with the new Kress Voyager mower and the upcoming iPilot technology, plus insights into installation, backend systems, dealer expectations, and how manufacturers are preparing for the autonomous future of lawn care. I also talk about what surprised me, what excited me most, and what this means for contractors, property owners, and the industry as a whole.

If you're curious about robotic mowing, considering becoming a dealer, or want to stay ahead of where outdoor equipment is heading, this episode gives you a front-row seat to what's coming next.
