Riley Pototschnik is a 21-year-old entrepreneur who started his first business at 16. After his Freshman year of high school, he left the traditional school system entirely to craft a completely custom curriculum online with a focus on the skills he would need to build businesses. That ultimately led to him starting a website design and optimization service called RocketThruster at 18 years old, which served home service businesses. That business quickly exceeded every expectation he had (honestly surprising him a bit by the results), as it generated 6-figures in profit in just over a year. Now, at 21, he's the founder and CEO of EveryChat. A simple-to-use inbox, paired with automation, bringing all of a business's Emails, Texts, and Facebook Messages into one place so the owner and their team can rock their marketing and customer service.Time Stamps:

First-time authors Chris Eccleston and Jenny Kerr Schroen have worked on many fresh ideas together at Delmarva Veteran Builders (DVB), a commercial construction firm, and realized they shared a long-time dream to write a children's book. Basing their concept on DVB's tagline, “Grit Leads to Greatness,” they devised an epic adventure book to show both parents and children that construction is heroic. Once the story was written, Chris and Jenny spent most of 2022 meeting with pioneers and thought leaders of the industry, learning more about what was being done to address the immense labor deficit. They figured they were onto something when they began hearing from not just national construction organizations, but also people outside of the industry who shared stories of how the workforce shortage affected them personally. Chris and Jenny quickly realized that one group or construction affiliation was not going to solve this. It was going to take a global effort to introduce a new generation to the trades. They hope their book, “Grit Leads to Greatness”, can be used as a tool to help bring together people from all walks of life to conquer an issue that impacts all of humanity.Time Stamps :

I started out in East Side Metro Detroit living paycheck to paycheck in a dead-end 9-5 job. I always loved the idea of financial independence and not having to listen to a boss. I mowed grass since I was 14 and was in a dire situation financially. I had to start a business quickly with low start-up costs, so I decided to start my own landscaping business. For a long time I was just scraping by, but with sheer determination, I scaled my business to six figures. Was it hard? Of course, it was. But the effort was worth the weight in gold for me. My landscaping business continues to pay me every day. With my own business and no boss to answer to, I started teaching other entrepreneurs inside the Keith Kalfas Academy how they could start their own businesses. I became an influencer in my industry. I took everything I learned from my experience and started making as much content around it as possible. All the work I put in is worth it if I help people become financially free. I still run my landscaping business but now I spend a lot of my time teaching thousands of students in the Keith Kalfas Academy how to grow their businesses to 6-figures. I also travel around the nation speaking about growing small businesses. I have spoken at the Huge Convention, the UAMCC, IGNITE, CSA, and several other industry events. I have also been featured in Turf Magazine, and the Window Cleaning Magazine UK. Other than speaking about small businesses I have also written two books with a detailed description of exactly how someone can go from nothing to a six-figure landscaping or window cleaning business. I also make free content on YouTube and on my blog about landscaping, window cleaning, and quitting a 9-to-5. Time Stamp:

It all started with a used pressure washer and a 1995 work van. That's how Jason Geiman and his wife, Jodi, started a pressure washing business back in 2012. Nearly doubling their business in the first year, additional family members were brought on to help with the growth. The business continued to see incredible success and outside employees were added as well. In just 6 years they had expanded to four crews and nearly $1M in gross revenue, and the decision was made to sell the business in 2018. Following the sale, as Jason wondered what to do with his new-found free time, he realized what he always wanted to do was to help people. It had led him to be a rescue diver, then a firefighter, and now, it has led him here. He is taking the lessons learned from his incredible 6 years running a pressure washing business into a resource for homeowners or for those starting, or struggling, to have their own exterior cleaning business.
