This week on the lounge we have my good friend Dave Berner from Kinde. 

Dave is a founder, a dad, a coder, a tech wizard, a lego organiser, a husband, a boss, a UK punk / grime enthusiast, a Bangalow gym 6am junkie (lol), basically an all round legend worthy that the lounge is no doubt unworthy of.  

We have many great chats about life and business around the camp fire over a couple of beers, so here is one brought to you in full over a couple of Stone and Woods finest. 

We discuss AI, starting a business, automation, leadership, management, making bad mistakes, making good mistakes, reading + much more. 

Available across all major streaming platforms. 

Enjoy the pod.

Much love xx

Ok we are doing something a little bit different in this one! 

We are posting a session we did on our paid program a couple of weeks ago.

Tom Ryan, from Ryelec, runs our “Business Automation” sessions every Friday at 10am. 

Today he gives us a run through of Groundplan, and how he uses it for effective quoting + pricing. 

Session best watched via video but hey I’m sure you will pick up a whole bunch of cool stuff either way.

In a “hit it and quit it” generation it’s time to flip the script and build long term relationships. 

Of course not in a blind loyalty “I will never get another price from anyone else as long as I live” kinda way, but in a way that puts people and service in a similar or even higher playing field than money. 

It’s people that make the business’s wheels spin. Staff. Suppliers. Clients. Probably in that order tbh.

This week we have Joe Pratt on the lounge, who is the self appointed and self anointed unofficial mayor of Bellingen (northern NSW). 

Joe is one of our coaches here and is an absolute weapon in the finding work space, Simpro, Service M8, people + team management. 

He truly puts the “hustle” in “hustle-off”. 

What a time to be alive.

In this episode we are joined by the self appointed and self anointed real estate lord Joe Pratt.

Rumour has it he gets his close friends and family to refer to him as the “Real Estate God” during business hours (9-5pm). 

His after hours “call out” is that he makes them say “Real Estate God” in double time, though not 5 times in the mirror for a significant and relatively justified fear of the real estate version of the Candyman. 

In all seriousness though, all types of work can be super profitable. Some of our members are getting huge results from doing mainly real estate work.

I was having a couple of beers the other night around a fire with my friend Dave. 

He asked me “what’s your ICP?” 

I replied by asking “what’s an ICP?”

Then he said “an ICP is your ideal customer profile”. 

Oooohhhhhhh, a GYM! (lol and Simpsons reference incase you have been living under a rock omg). 

In this episode we talk about your ideal client, or ICP as Dave likes to say. 

Starting out in this new financial year it’s good to ask yourself if you are working for, and working with, the right people.

This week on the lounge we have the honour of hosting Brandon who has (more than likely) sworn at you via online sorcery aka ads re: taking your digital marketing back in house. 

Brandon runs “Where U” out of Perth, which is a digital marketing company throwing the horns up and screaming a big “F U” to the current telemarketing state of his industry. 

Brandon is giving power back to the people to take their creative control back in house on copy, Google Ads, Meta ads + more. 

We did the Where U live event and absolutely loved it. Learned heaps tbh. Would highly recommend to anyone considering. 

Join us on the lounge as we talk digital advertising, sales, hiring, music, almost joining cults (lol and not kidding), among much more.
