Creating Relationships: Los Pintores

Order Dan’s book here: https://trybta.com/BBYT

To apply for a Breakthrough Academy Business Assessment click here: https://trybta.com/YTEP144

My guest on the show today is Dan Martell. 

Award-winning Entrepreneur. Investor. Author.

Since his new book Buy Back Your Time was released last year, I’ve had at least 10 Breakthrough Academy members ask me to have him on. And when I read it, I understood why. 

Buy Back Your Time is an antidote to the time-sucking and stress-inducing nature of entrepreneurship. 

Through clean diagrams, personal stories, and sage wisdom, he offers a pragmatic and deeply intuitive path to avoid building a business you grow to hate. A scenario many entrepreneurs sadly find themselves in.

Dan’s life story is wild, and we start the interview there, so I won’t spoil it. But the meat of the interview is focused on the core framework of his book called: The Buy Back Principle. 

This was an absolute banger episode, guys. I hope you enjoy it.

00:00 - Intro
02:12 - Dan's checkered past
09:37 - In what ways does a troubled upbringing make you better?
22:03 - Time Management for Contractors
26:59 - The Buyback Principle and The Buyback Loop 
33:42 - The Drip Matrix
37:42 - Why is doing stuff that "lights you up" so important?
40:33 - Executive Assistants
44:47 - The 4 time hacks

Creating Successful Client Interactions: The Contractor Fight

To learn more about Breakthrough Academy, click here: https://trybta.com/YTEP147

One part of the wealth-building story for contractors that doesn’t get a whole lot of coverage in our modern thought-o-sphere is risk mitigation. 

The affluent business person you want to become doesn’t get there SIMPLY by always making successful bets. 

The part you don’t see is the huge losses they avoided. 

S*** happens. So protecting the downside is actually more important than the pursuit of growth.

We’re excited to have Danielle Slavin on the show today. She is a CFA and a Senior Portfolio Manager at RBC Dominion Securities. For the last 16 years, she and her team of 6 help have helped contractors just like you preserve and prudently grow the wealth they extract from their businesses. 

Today we’re going to talk about the morbid but oh-so-important ways to protect your wealth from:
- Deaths
- Divorces
- Serious Illnesses 
- and a whole host of other threats

00:00 - Intro
02:19 - Why do entrepreneurs spend so little time considering risks and downsides?
10:40 - Top 5 catastrophic disruptions
21:45 - What should business owners be doing when times are good?
30:29 - What role do insurance tools play?
45:15 - Action Steps protect yourself
48:23 - How does this change for people in business partnerships? 
51:42 - Advice for finding a good advisor in this area

Maggie Kuyper: Women In Paint

Do you want to tap into your untapped potential? Then Be Unreasonable. Be unreasonable with your goals, set the unreasonable standard, put in unreasonable amounts of work, and be unreasonable with the experience you deliver to your clients — this will set you and your service apart, and your bank account and business will grow beyond your expectations. Tom wants you to set targets way outside your comfort zone so that you achieve more than you think possible.

In this episode, Tom discusses:

Being unreasonable with your goals and expectations to achieve more than you think is possible

Having an unreasonable standard of customer service, sales targets to pull the best out of yourself

Setting a target gross profit percentage of 50%

Challenging your comfort zone to achieve extraordinary results

When Should You Charge 50% Gross Profit: The Contractor Fight

If you’ve ever wondered how an Open Book Management business operates and whether or not this model might work for you. You’re in luck!

Open Book Management, or OBM for short, is a business philosophy and system that communicates the entire financial picture of the business all the way down to the laborer in the field. 

The fundamental idea is that every set of hands comes from with a free brain, and people generally play better when your keeping score. 

Our guest today is Ryan Markewich, founder of Creative Roots Landscaping in Kelowna, BC, and a certified Great Game of Business Coach. For the last twenty years, he’s run Creative Roots fully “Open Book” and is here today to tell us about it.

I ask him:
- Does OBM really work? Or is this just another hyped-up business framework?
- How much extra work is it to train employees on the financial reports and KPIs in order for them to truly be “in the game”?
- How do they select future partners from their employee pool? 
- How do they groom them? And what does it actually mean when an employee purchases a tranche of the company?

Open Book Management isn’t for everyone, but if you’ve ever been curious about it, this is a great jumping-off point.

00:00 - Intro
02:08 - Ryan’s Work-Life Balance
05:31- Does Open Book Management Really Work?
06:24 - OBM in a nutshell
10:22 - Ryan’s Journey
18:51 - Open the books and teach the numbers
30:39 - High Involvement Planning (HIP)
37:50 - The Partnership Track & Cap Table
50:02 - Deeper Learning
