How to Build Wealth as a Clinical Entrepreneur In this episode, Doc Danny Matta breaks down how your clinic can be more than just a job replacement—it can be your wealth-building engine. He shares five steps learned from mentors, mistakes, and over a decade of running businesses, showing how to reinvest in your practice, avoid costly tax-driven schemes, and keep your wealth strategy simple and sustainable. Quick Ask If you're finding value in the podcast, help us hit our mission of adding $1B in cash-based services to physical therapy. Share this episode with a clinician friend or post it to your IG stories and tag Danny—he'll reshare it! Episode Summary Core thesis: Your clinic is your best wealth-building asset. Treat it like the investment it is. Step 1: Stop investing outside the business at the start—double down on reinvesting in your practice until it grows. Step 2: Grow income to a level where you have more than you need, without falling into lifestyle creep. Step 3: Avoid tax-first investments; focus on solid opportunities first, with tax benefits as a bonus. Step 4: Keep outside investments simple, liquid, and automated (e.g., index funds, Roth, brokerage). Step 5: Refocus on your core business—it's the biggest driver of your income, wealth, and eventual valuation. Five Wealth-Building Steps Reinvest first: Stop putting money into outside investments until your business is stable and growing. Scale income: Push until your take-home dwarfs your expenses, creating a true gap to invest. Avoid shiny tax tricks: Don't get lured into complex, illiquid strategies just to save on taxes. Automate simple wealth: Stick to straightforward, low-risk investments you don't need to micromanage. Refocus on the clinic: Your business is the asset that drives both income and long-term wealth potential. Why This Matters Cash flow: Clinics aren't tech startups with 10x exits, but they provide steady, strong cash flow. De-risking: Building wealth outside your business reduces stress and makes better decisions possible inside your business. Exit optionality: Even if you never sell, you've built income streams and assets that fund your life. Generational wealth: A smart clinic + simple investments can set up long-term family stability. Pro Tips You Can Use Today Audit reinvestment: Look at what you're spending outside your clinic and redirect into marketing, mentorship, or systems. Watch lifestyle creep: Don't inflate spending just because your clinic income grows. Vet opportunities: Only pursue investments you understand and can keep simple. Think barbell: Your clinic is the high-risk/high-reward side; balance it with simple, low-risk assets. Notable Quotes “The best financial decision I ever made was to stop investing outside of my clinic and pour it all back into growing my business.” “Don't let tax loopholes drive your investing. Solid investment first, tax benefit second.” “Your clinic is your core asset. Improve that, and everything else follows.” Action Items Redirect outside investments into your clinic until it's producing consistent profitability. Set a percentage of excess income for simple, automated investments once you have a surplus. Stop chasing tax shelters—pick straightforward, safe investments instead. Schedule time to review your clinic's systems, team, and profitability this quarter. Programs Mentioned Clinical Rainmaker: Coaching + plan to get you full-time in your clinic. Mastermind: Scale beyond yourself into space, team, and systems.

Don't miss it — we won't!   Running a modern trampoline or adventure park isn't as simple as “put trampolines in a warehouse and open the doors” anymore. Operators juggle guest expectations, evolving tech stacks, labor realities, and the need to turn first-time visitors into loyal fans. In this conversation, Matt and Josh surface practical solutions with a live panel—Phillip Howell (Best American Trampolines), Greg Spittle (ROLLER), and Brandon Willey (Intelliplay)—covering design, data, kiosks vs. people, post-visit marketing, gamification, and AI. In this episode, Phillip, Greg, and Brandon share how the trampoline park model has matured and what tech-enabled moves will define the next five years. From Warehouses to Polished, Parent-Friendly Parks “We were going into warehouses… 10 to 15,000 square feet of actual trampolines… no party rooms, no decoration on the wall.” Early parks were bare-bones. Today, Phillip emphasizes warm, inviting environments: clean sightlines, framed netting, wrinkle-free pads, murals, and real seating and TVs for parents. The aesthetic isn't vanity - it sets the perceived cleanliness and quality bar the moment guests walk in. Match Online Promises with Onsite Reality “That upfront experience needs to match the experience when I walk through the door.” Brandon flags a common miss: aspirational websites and social feeds that don't reflect the actual facility. Greg adds that outdated online checkout flows lose guests before they arrive. Align visuals and copy with the real experience, and make the digital path to purchase smooth. Before–During–After: Design the Whole Journey “There's a bit of technology in every piece of that journey.” Before the visit: modern web and frictionless online booking. During the visit: clear wayfinding, staffed self-service kiosks (never kiosks alone), and trained team members who intercept stress and upsell thoughtfully. After the visit: structured follow-ups—survey, intercept negative feedback before it hits Google, and segmented re-engagement. Kiosks Need Humans “You can't just leave the kiosks out there and expect success.” Automation works best with people in the loop. The winning model pairs one well-trained team member with multiple kiosks to guide choices, protect the experience, and enable upsells… without leaving a 16-year-old “on an island.” Own the Post-Visit Moment (and the Data) “Trampoline parks have a massive advantage. You have mandatory waivers… it's marketing data.” Use waivers to power segmentation: birthday clubs (30–45 days out), membership offers, and interest-based campaigns. Greg notes birthday bookings often happen ~3 weeks in advance, so time your messages. Automate when possible, but always deliver genuine value in every send. Wearables & Gamification Drive Repeat Visits “After the bands were in place, repeat visitation went up to 78%.” Intelliplay's wristbands track activity, show session status (green to red), reduce PA “time's up” moments, and fuel leaderboards. With demographic data and in-park behavior, operators can create attraction-specific events (e.g., dodgeball nights) and reward systems that keep families coming back. Clean Lines = Clean Minds “You see a wrinkled pad and it looks dirty.” Optics shape reviews. Details like pad tension, framed netting, and tidy sightlines communicate safety and care, prevent “dirty” perceptions that damage ratings even when facilities are spotless. AI Now & Next: Practical, Not Hype “AI is still in its infancy… but options matter.” Today: load SOPs into a private assistant for staff training and guest FAQs; use AI for campaign ideation and drafting. Tomorrow: agentic AI will act on your data, building and running segmented campaigns, surfacing decisions from noise, and personalizing in-park and post-visit experiences. Humans stay central; AI reduces drudgery. Operator Priorities That Don't Change “What's driving my revenue, costs, and guest experience?” Greg's three pillars: Revenue engines (birthday parties remain foundational; memberships rising). Costs (especially labor forecasting by day/week/season). Guest experience (measure, intercept, and improve). Brandon adds: audit your attraction mix and secret shop your own venue regularly, end to end. The Park of the Near Future “Immersive, gamified, personalized.” Expect lighting tied to activity, unified scoring across attractions, persistent profiles, and app-based rewards that feel like arcade redemption—physical prizes today, digital skins tomorrow. Most of all: keep experimenting; iterate quickly, learn, and evolve.   What tech or tactics have moved the needle most in your venue: kiosks, leaderboards, birthday automation, staff training tools, or something else?

It's no secret that vibe coding — using AI-powered coding tools to build apps and websites via natural language prompts — is exploding in popularity. In July, Swedish vibe coding startup Lovable hit $100 million in annual recurring revenue just eight months after launch, plans to close the year at $250 million ARR and thinks it will hit $1 billion ARR within the next 12 months. Meanwhile, Replit said earlier this month that its ARR soared from $2.8 million to $150 million in less than a year. Also, job seekers in all fields can expect to soon be doing a lot more initial screening interviews. While that may sound like positive news, it doesn't mean that there will suddenly be more open positions. Instead, recruiters, often bogged down with determining which applicants are qualified for the next round, will outsource the routine screening tasks — like checking backgrounds, salary needs, and availability — to (you guessed it) AI.

In this episode, Michelle sits down with Tracy Sheen — award-winning author of AI & U, digital guide, and professional speaker — to unpack exactly how AI is transforming the way local businesses operate. With more than 30 years' experience helping small businesses adopt digital tools, Tracy shares how AI can: Automate repetitive admin tasks like rostering & stock control Personalise loyalty programs and enhance customer experience Unlock smarter marketing strategies — even on tight budgets Turn customer feedback into real business growth Support staff by acting as a collaborator, not a competitor You'll also hear real-world examples of how venues are already using AI — from a coffee van in regional Queensland creating new revenue streams, to clubs and restaurants improving loyalty with personalised offers and smarter Wi-Fi. Tracy also explains why the fear of AI replacing jobs is misplaced, and how leaders can instead use it to empower teams, improve efficiency, and deepen community connection. This episode is packed with practical tools like Canva, Guidde, Tango, and Notebook LM — simple, affordable ways to bring AI into your venue today.

Are you a small business owner feeling overwhelmed by AI? You're not alone. While enterprise companies throw massive budgets at custom AI solutions, you're wondering how to get started without breaking the bank or spending hours learning complex prompts.In this episode, I sit down with Phil Pallen, author of AI for Small Business and creative branding expert, who reveals the simple framework that's helping small business owners find immediate AI wins. Phil shares his journey from studying media and entertainment business to starting his own branding agency in 2011 when his first three clients - a makeup artist, real estate agent, and jewelry designer - all needed help with social media. He also tells the fascinating story of how a client's suggestion to put his tutorial videos on YouTube led to a major publisher reaching out about writing a book on AI.But here's what makes this conversation different: Phil isn't selling you on the latest shiny AI tool. Instead, he's sharing a practical time-tracking method that helps you identify exactly where AI can make the biggest impact in YOUR business - starting with the tasks you hate doing most.You'll discover why custom GPTs aren't the answer for 95% of businesses, how to use AI projects to organize client conversations for better brand storytelling, and Phil's controversial take on why perfect prompts are a myth. Plus, he reveals the email automation system that saves him hours every week (hint: it's not just AI).Whether you're just getting started with AI or feeling scattered across multiple tools, this episode will help you create a sustainable, systematic approach that makes you better at what you already do - not just faster.What You'll Learn:The 3-question framework for identifying AI opportunities in your businessWhy tracking your time is the secret to finding AI quick winsHow to organize AI conversations using projects (and why custom GPTs usually aren't worth it)Phil's email automation system that handles affiliate pitches automaticallyThe tools Phil uses daily for client work and content creationWhy AI should enhance your excellence, not replace your expertiseCommon pitfalls small business owners make when implementing AILinks Mentioned in This EpisodePhil Pallen's Book: AI for Small Business (Available at all major bookstores)Time Tracking Tools:EverHour: everhourRize: rizeEmail Organization Tools:SaneBox: saneboxSerif: serifAI Tools Discussed:ChatGPT Projects: chat.openai.comCLearn More: Buy Digital Threads: https://nealschaffer.com/digitalthreadsamazon Buy Maximizing LinkedIn for Business Growth: https://nealschaffer.com/maximizinglinkedinamazon Join My Digital First Mastermind: https://nealschaffer.com/membership/ Learn about My Fractional CMO Consulting Services: https://nealschaffer.com/cmo Download My Free Ebooks Here: https://nealschaffer.com/books/ Subscribe to my YouTube Channel: https://youtube.com/nealschaffer All My Podcast Show Notes: https://podcast.nealschaffer.com

In this week's podcast, we dive into why so many investors underperform the very funds they invest in. Drawing on Morningstar's Mind the Gap 2025 research, we explore how “magpie behaviour” — chasing shiny new investments, panicking in downturns, or tinkering too much — quietly erodes long-term wealth. The evidence is clear: bad behaviour can cost over 1% per year, compounding into massive losses over time. But the gap isn't inevitable. This episode shares practical steps to help you capture more of the returns you deserve — and avoid being the magpie. Key Points Morningstar “Mind the Gap 2025” shows investors lose ~1.2% per year due to poor timing and bad behaviour. Chasing shiny investments (like tech, AI, or thematic funds) often backfires. ETFs and bond funds show wider performance gaps due to frequent trading. Behaviour matters more than markets or fees — discipline drives long-term returns. Five ways to close the gap: Automate contributions, rebalancing, and withdrawals Work with an advisor to stay disciplined Focus on low-cost, globally diversified core holdings Keep “fun money” small if dabbling in niche funds Build a margin of safety into your financial plan Disclaimer

This week on the podcast, I'm thrilled to welcome back a fan favorite—Kara Ward of Lemons to Lemonade Home. If you missed her first appearance, you'll definitely want to check out Episode 180, where she shared her incredible journey from working with Dave Ramsey to launching a successful YouTube channel all about furniture flipping. https://creativesonfirepodcast.com/episode214 In this new conversation, Kara walks us through the massive shifts she's made in her business—from rebranding her channel to expanding income streams, embracing Amazon's newest tools, and even how she automates her brand partnerships. Let's just say: if you've been looking for real-talk insight on how creators are actually earning online today (without doing all the things), this episode is packed with gold. From Furniture Flipping to Full-Time Creator Kara originally built her channel under the name Lemons to Lemonade Furniture, but recently made the shift to Lemons to Lemonade Home—a change that reflects not only her evolving content, but also a realistic pivot as she shares: “I'm 47 now and flipping furniture in 100° Texas heat just isn't sustainable forever.” This rebrand gives her the flexibility to show more sides of her life—motherhood, homeschooling, DIY projects, and everyday home inspiration—while still staying true to her roots in creative content. Takeaway: Your brand name can grow with you. You don't have to stay stuck in a box you outgrew years ago. YouTube: Her #1 Income Source Kara doesn't just dabble in YouTube—she's built a full-time income from her channel. In fact, YouTube ad revenue and sponsorships make up 80% of her monthly income. She shared how she landed a consistent stream of monthly sponsors through a talent manager and how just one viral video landed her a spot on the roster of her dream brand agency. But Kara was clear: you don't need 100K subscribers to get brand deals. Engagement matters more than numbers. “I only had around 60K when they reached out,” she says, “but my videos had consistent views and hundreds of comments.” What's New on YouTube? YouTube's latest game-changer? YouTube Shopping—a feature that allows creators to tag products directly in their videos. While Amazon links aren't supported yet, other platforms like Walmart and Lowe's are fair game. Kara uses this tool to highlight everything from her go-to sprayer to the pink toolbox in her background. Even her subscribers watching on a smart TV can now shop directly from the screen. Pro tip: YouTube is making it easier than ever to earn while you create. If you're already making videos, this is worth exploring. Amazon: Doubling (and Tripling) Her Income Kara's also crushing it on Amazon with both affiliate and influencer programs. She uses Creator Connections (Amazon's brand-driven bonus campaign system) to bump her commissions up to 20–30%—instead of the usual 2–4%. But digging through campaigns manually was a hassle… until she found Oink. "In my first week using the Oink extension, I made back the $29.99 subscription and then some." – Kara Ward Oink is a Chrome extension that scans your Amazon storefront, identifies what products qualify for bonuses, and accepts the campaigns for you—automatically. Total game-changer. The Truth About Niching Down There was a time when sticking to one niche was the golden rule. But Kara believes those days are behind us. “I don't think you have to stay in a tiny content box anymore,” she says. “Once you pull people in, they want to know more about you—your home, your family, your life.” While her content still centers around furniture and DIY, she sprinkles in real-life moments—like homeschooling updates and behind-the-scenes snippets—that build connection and trust. How Kara Promotes Her Content Even without a website or email list (yet!), Kara has found success promoting her content using: Instagram Stories – with countdowns and teaser clips Facebook – where she's nearing 100K followers YouTube Community tab – polls, video reminders, and feedback requests Bottom line: you don't need every platform, but you do need to consistently invite people into your world. Kara's Advice for Creators: Monetize what you're already doing. If you're using Amazon products, why not earn on them? Stay focused. Build one stream of income until it's nearly on autopilot before adding another. Don't wait for perfect numbers. One engaged community is more powerful than vanity metrics. Automate what you can. From Oink to brand management, systems make growth sustainable.

This episode covers the extreme perseverance and the stubborn genius of James Dyson. Dyson has a business philosophy which is very different from anything you might have encountered before. A philosophy which demands difference from what exists and retention of total control. For almost four decades, James Dyson has been building one of the most valuable privately-held companies in the world. A company he owns without shareholders — and one that is centered around an obsession with the quality of the product above all. I spent well over 70 hours reading (and rereading) both Against the Odds and Invention: A Life of Learning Through Failure. These books tell the story of the vision of a single man, pursued with dogged determination, that was nothing less than obsession.
