  This week's guest on The Unbeatable Mind is a true, living, breathing example of how success can only come through hard work. Coming from truly humble beginnings, Tommy Mello talks to Mark Divine this week about how he's turned the seemingly innocuous garage door industry into a powerhouse currently set to surpass $100 million EBIDTA.    Tommy shares how he built and scaled his business from the ground up. From mowing lawns as a teenager in Michigan, to hiring top talent and building a world-class team, Tommy reveals the strategies that got him to the position he finds himself in today. He and Mark discuss leveraging equity incentive programs, fostering a culture in which staff can thrive, and Tommy's “build to sell” philosophy.    They also get personal, discussing the ups and downs that come with rapid financial success, learning the art of delegation, and the toll of “the grind.” Tommy gives his candid take on money, legacy, and health routines, and dives into the future of blue-collar work in an AI driven world. All in all, Tommy's insights are valuable for leaders, business owners, or anyone with the drive to build something big.      Key Takeaways:  Building To Sell: Tommy shares his philosophy on structuring business to make them sellable and scalable. His approach to acquisitions, greenfields, and organic growth aim to maximise value for future exits.  The Art of Recruiting: Discover how hiring is about far more than just what's on the resume. Tommy shares why he cares far more about passion and drive than technical skills, and how he can spot “unicorn” talent by paying attention to the little details.  The Power of Delegation: Listen as Tommy dishes on his personal journey of learning to let go. Grinding one hundred percent of the time is unsustainable, so he's learned to build checklists, hire smarter people, and invest in his own growth through coaches and consultants.  Marketing & Growth: Recognize how marketing for both customers and recruiting is the most valuable skill for company leadership.   As an entrepreneur, Tommy Mello has navigated the trenches, initially donning multiple hats – from sales and marketing to accounting and recruitment. However, he realized that sustainable success doesn't demand sacrificing family and friendships with relentless 14-hour shifts; it requires strategic intelligence and building invaluable connections.   So, he embarked on a journey of working smarter, not harder, focusing on cultivating the right networks. In a bid to pay it forward and support fellow home service industry entrepreneurs, he established a vibrant Facebook group. Here, he freely shares his insights and experiences while fostering a community where luminaries like Ken Goodrich, Joe Crisara, Al Levi, and other industry experts contribute their invaluable wisdom spanning branding, social media, and finance.     Tommy's Links:  Website: https://homeserviceexpert.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tommymello/   Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/officialtommymello/?hl=en   Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHZz8wAvo7GEvDw04C9DDWQ  X: https://x.com/realtommymello?lang=en    Sponsors and Promotions:   Momentous: If you're interested in making a true investment in your health, why not join the best in human performance and be part of the change in raising the bar on supplements.

Thank you. This is Renegade Files Episode 84: Forbidden Self Reliance and the Rent Seeking Pimpocracy. When a large enough contingent of the economy as a whole, is made up of jobs that add no value, then the Self-Reliance activities in society that bypass those mechanisms, become vilified by employees of the no-value-added processes. In this episode we will dissect what that sentence means for you and I as individuals, and explore how the activity described has impacted society. To do so we will coin a new term, the Pimpocracy. A pimp is someone who adds no value to the transaction, but profits by way of allowing the transaction to take place. A pimp positions himself as the parasitic middleman, taking his cut without participating. In fact, his only participation is the talking of his cut. This precisely describes a vast amount of activity in the modern American system of Big Government's collusion with Big Business. For example, one of the most ancient ways to feed yourself is by fishing. Fishing is a definitive Self-Reliant activity. But now, if you want to use a stick, and a string, and a hook baited with a minnow, to catch a fish, you must have a fishing license. The person whose job it is to sit in the county tax collector's office, take your information, and your money, then issue you a license to fish, adds nothing to your ability to catch fish. They exist simply as a middle-man between you and the fish. And for this, they take their cut. This is their job. Their livelihood. They are, in effect, pimping the fish themselves, for without those, there would be no fishing and thus no license. Extrapolate that across a myriad of building permits, vehicle registrations, license plates, insurance mandates, property taxes, business permits, Bankers who charge you to store and retrieve your own money, government commissioners who debate endlessly, and on and on ad-nauseum. Much of our modern economy is built upon jobs like these where the only purpose of the job, is to take a percentage of the money passing between two people trying to do business. I say this is a pimpocracy. Fiat currency not only fuels it, but demands it, but there are solutions and realistic ways out of the cycle, and if you come with me today we will explore what this all is, how it happens, and in defining it, see some clear ways out of it. So join me and together we will explore Forbidden Self Reliance and the Rent Seeking Pimpocracy. Help Crowdfund RF on Patreon https://www.patreon.com/renegadefiles Get cool RF Merch https://therenegadefiles.com/shop/Visit and Share the Website http://therenegadefiles.comDig us on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@renegadefiles Follow RF on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/renegadefiles/ Links Mentioned in Show:Renegade Files Episode 54, Occult Magic in Modern Science. See pics of existing Sears Mailorder Homes next to their original catalog elevation sketches and floor-plans here: https://searshomes.org/index.php/2012/04/10/the-kit-homes-of-raleigh-nc/  If you like the show, please leave us a 5 star review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify if you think we deserve it.

Send Bite Me a Text!What happens when profit-hungry corporations capture the cannabis legalization process? Michael DeVillaer, author of Buzz Kill The Corporatization of Cannabis, joins us for a sobering look at how legalization in Canada prioritized corporate interests over public health and social justice.This eye-opening conversation reveals how cannabis legalization followed the same problematic playbook used by the alcohol, tobacco, and pharmaceutical industries. Mike exposes the conflicts of interest that shaped Canada's cannabis regulations and the troubling double standard in enforcement—where corporate actors caught with illegal cannabis faced mere slaps on the wrist while individuals received prison sentences for minor possession.As more jurisdictions consider cannabis legalization and legal psychedelics loom on the horizon, this conversation offers essential lessons in how we can build more effective and just drug policies that truly protect public health and promote social equity.

She walks through how to use it as a launchpad for smarter decisions and puts you in control of your numbers.  Key Takeaways:  Break-Even as a Planning Tool: Knowing your break-even point helps you look forward, not backward, and make strategic choices with confidence.  Know Your Break-Even Before Big Decisions: Calculate how your expenses will change first and then what new revenue you'll need to cover them.

Private companies and state governments have long exploited the 13th Amendment to create a profitable agribusiness system that runs on prison slave labor. “If you look at the history of agriculture in the United States, it's built on dispossession, it's built on enslavement,” says Joshua Sbicca, director of the Prison Agriculture Lab, and the legacy of that violence lives on in the big business of “agricarceral” farming today. In this episode of Rattling the Bars, host and former political prisoner Mansa Musa speaks with Sbicca about the prisoners farming our food, the parties profiting from their exploitation, and the ongoing fight to uphold the basic rights and dignity of incarcerated workers.Producer / Videographer / Post-Production: Cameron GranadinoHelp us continue producing Rattling the Bars by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer.Sign up for our newsletterFollow us on BlueskyLike us on FacebookFollow us on TwitterDonate to support this podcast

Why Agents Should Think Twice Before Celebrating Industry “Good News”On the latest episode of Insurance Business Babes, hosts Kathe Kline and Joanna Wyckoff dive into the issues behind Medicare's disaster SEPs (Special Election Periods), recent government reversals, and why not all agent celebrations are necessarily cause for joy. If you're an agent who's popped the champagne over recent changes, this episode is for you.When "Wins" Aren't Wins for EveryoneThe government recently reversed a rule, now allowing agents to enroll clients using the disaster SEP again, rather than having clients call Medicare directly. On the surface, this sounds like a win, but Kathe and Joanna urge caution. The reversal makes it easier for bad actors—especially call centers—to abuse SEPs for commission, often enrolling vulnerable clients in unsuitable or unnecessary plans. The end result? Honest agents face unfair competition and a system that can hurt clients without careful oversight.The Real Cost of Abused SEPsDisaster SEPs are meant for people genuinely affected by natural disasters and unable to enroll during typical periods. Kathe shares stories about agents moving clients between plans quarter after quarter under questionable pretense. Not only does this strain trust in the industry, but it also puts pressure on carriers and small agents alike. Frequent rollovers, rapid disenrollment, and adverse selection can damage both client outcomes and carrier profitability, leading to fewer good products in the market.Small Business Agents: The Ones Getting SqueezedAs Joanna notes, regulatory changes intended to clamp down on abuse often make life harder for solo agents and small agencies, not the big call centers causing most issues. Increased documentation, lengthy disclaimers, and constant regulation can be overwhelming, especially when honest agents get painted with the same broad brush.Celebrate Wisely—and Put Clients FirstFinally, Kathe and Joanna remind agents that cutting corners or exploiting loopholes ultimately harms your reputation and client base. Instead, build your book with integrity, focus on true client needs, and don't be swayed by industry “wins” that may only benefit the big players. Diversify, cross-sell, and always act as if you were advising your own family member—your clients (and your business) will thank you for it.This episode is sponsored by ⁠CertifiedMedicareAgents.com⁠.

What about a company that manages all of the British military bases around the world as well as the satellite communications, while still being in the business of picking up the trash, managing air traffic control stations, housing prisoners, and detaining immigrants? You would call this company Serco, and they have a dark history of corruption and incompetence. For almost 100 years Serco has been the outsourcing arm of the British government specializing in government services, citizen services, the defense industry, transportation, healthcare, and facilities management. They generate $5 billion a year in revenue and have been busted for fraud, reneging on contracts, and other illegal business practices associated with everything imaginable, including the UK's disastrous “Track & Trace” program. With the unhinged Left constantly screaming about defeating fascism all the time, one of the best examples of the blending of the Government with Big Business is sitting right in front of their eyes but they will never notice, even when they show up at their house once a week to take away their trash.

In this episode of the Big Money Strategies podcast, I'm diving into what it really takes to scale your business beyond $5K months. If you're consistently fully booked but still stuck in hustle mode, this is your invitation to shift. I'm sharing a three-step roadmap to help you move from time-for-money and burnout into scalable offers, smarter systems, and visibility strategies that actually work.

From the gold rush to the tech boom, this region has been shaped by successive waves of business growth and decline. Every generation, new investments, innovations, and industries have led the way in building the Bay Area, attracting immigrants, and impacting every aspect of life here. For better or worse, the legacy of these trends is the world we live in today. In this episode, urban geographer Richard Walker, author of “Pictures of a Gone City: Tech and the Dark Side of Prosperity in the San Francisco Bay Area,” discusses the pros and cons of these boom/bust cycles and explores the history of local development through the lens of Big Business. As the Bay Area's economy faces an uncertain future under the threat of a global trade war and a looming “AI revolution,” this wide-ranging conversation gives context to our often bewildering present.

San Francisco played an outsized role in the industry — especially in providing the workers who did the tough, dirty, low-paid work in the canneries. We trace the salmon connections between San Francisco and Alaska and learn about the early workers who made the industry possible.
