The Aaron Wants to Know Podcast

Oh, and also run 2 Cleaning Companies at the same time. In the latest episode of the Podcast, we laughed a ton & also got some great insight from Brandon Bridgewater. Brandon is the founder of Apartment Elves as well as its sister company Carpet Elves. Nowadays he is deep into his 3rd business venture as a Realtor. We started off discussing Wholesaling Real Estate but also talked about how many big-name Entrepreneurs are now making a majority of their money from teaching what they know & building their personal brand. We talked about the fear and anxiety that comes along with putting out content that may not perform. Brandon broke down how his failures & difficulties in business only helped him & his companies run more efficiently in the long run. We had an important conversation on mindset, perspective, and how some individuals really aren't interested in solutions to their problems in life. Brandon is an inspiring businessman, father, & human being. Stop what you're doing and go watch or listen!

Tarry Summers of @The Columbus Homes Co. was just a kid from the Southside of Columbus with a relentless motor & desire to be better and learn more every day. Now he contributes to Forbes Magazine & runs one of the top Real Estate companies in Ohio. Talking with Tarry you realize he really is a "Normal" guy. He just has a very abnormal work ethic & isn't interested in Mediocrity even in the slightest. One of my favorite parts of this Episode was when I asked him "why not stop when you were comfortable financially?" He replied "It's not in my DNA!" The Savage...THE One And Only!!! ...

"DON'T EVEN TRY TO BE A STAND UP COMEDIAN!" In our latest Episode Comedian Eric "EP" Patterson gave us a totally different conversation & vibe than we've had in the past. Although he still believes in hard work, helping other people get "on", and learning as much as you can about your craft/passion. He also makes it clear that making it in the stand up world is unbelievably hard & not meant for someone who thinks it will be an easy road just because they're funny. He offers a few alternative routes for comedy instead. We talked everything from how he got started in comedy to his dream of one day having a discounted "do it all" studio for other artists & creatives. He is still heavily in the middle of his grind towards becoming a successful comic & isn't showing any signs of slowing down. This episode was definitely a good change of pace & a lot more laid back. Check it out and let us know you're thoughts on social.
