Thad and Cam break down the full bonus and KPI structure that Thad runs across his offices — from daily wheel spins and weekly rep spotlights to the $5-6K a week he spends on sales KPIs alone. The biggest takeaway: smaller, more frequent bonuses keep more people engaged than one giant prize that only three reps can ever win.
Thad and Cam recap Presidents Club in Punta Cana and break down the five real things Thad took away — from stepping on a sea urchin to what happens when two offices finally meet in person, and why watching how your reps interact with their significant others tells you more about your culture than any KPI ever will. Funny, honest, and surprisingly full of leadership gold.
Thad sits down with Jay, CEO of Velocity Capital Group, who has funded over $1 billion in transactions and been in the alternative finance industry for 18 years. They cover revenue based finance vs. MCA, surviving institutional capital gone wrong, the four types of compounding in the funding space, real-time funding technology, and why staying broke in your head is the only thing that keeps the money from changing who you are. One of the most seasoned and honest conversations in the feed.
Thad sits down with Sean Murray founder of deBanked, Broker Fair, and the Daily Funder, for one of the most important conversations in the MCA space. Sean has been in the industry for 20 years and breaks down the full origin story, how ACH changed everything, why Square and Shopify aren't the threat people think they are, and why this industry has more runway than almost anyone is willing to admit. If you work in alternative finance, this one is required listening.
Thad and Cam break down the five signs your brokerage shop might not be the right fit — from lack of reinvestment and shady commission structures to no syndication program and a culture nobody actually wants to be in. If you're a broker wondering if you're in the right place, this one's for you.
Thad and Cam get honest about what it takes to stand out as a business owner — why you have to lean into social media the same way a previous generation had to learn public speaking, how to manage stress before it manages you, and why your HRV score might be telling you something your calendar isn't. Real talk about leading at a high level.
Thad and Cam pull back the curtain on the alternative finance industry — how hedge funds like Guggenheim and Base Point are backing the MCA space, what OnDeck's Covid fire sale really meant, and the tax math that makes MCA a smarter move than most business owners realize. A must-listen if you want to understand the bigger picture.
Thad breaks down the three non-negotiables every MCA broker needs before they ever pick up the phone — infrastructure, lender relationships, and a syndication program — and why Bluegrass Lending leads in all three. If you're in an industry where the top reps aren't clearing half a million a year, it's time for a conversation.
Thad explains why going to ten different banks on your own is the wrong move when you need a business loan, and how working with a specialized broker like Bluegrass Lending gives you a dedicated expert who doesn't get paid until you do. Short, direct, and worth sharing with any business owner you know.
Thad breaks down exactly what a merchant cash advance is in plain English — what makes it different from a traditional loan, how the purchase of future receivables actually works, and what the repayment structure looks like for a business owner. The clearest two-minute MCA breakdown you'll find anywhere.
