Taylor Chastain, the owner of Up Up and Away Junk Hauling has had a fun journey in Junk Removal and it all started with the "toilet people" offering for him to use their trailer. Tune in to hear the story! From Taylor: "I get asked this question all the time. People ask me, "Taylor, how did you start junk hauling?" And the story is really simple. When I was 17, I was in high school and I was doing a little bit of landscaping, just trying to make some money. My dad had a landscaping gig as his first job and he's always been an entrepreneur. So I figured I could start there. I realized pretty quickly that I hate landscaping. But I had one of my landscaping clients reach out to me and they said they just had all their toilets redone and they asked if I could take them to the dump. I said, "great, where's the dump?" They told me where it was and told me they would give me 20 bucks to pay for the dump fees and buy my lunch. 17 year old Taylor said, Sign me up. So I loaded up pulled into the transfer station, backed the trailer in, and threw the toilets on the ground. Guess what!? They shattered into tiny pieces. My first thought was, that was FUN. My second thought was, I bet I could get paid for that. So I finished off the year for my landscape clients, but since then it has been all about the junk. That was eight years ago. I was in a $1,500 beat up pickup truck and I borrowed a trailer from the toilet family to be able to use for hauling. The agreement was that I would dump it wherever they filled it and if I did that I could use it whenever I wanted. So that's how I got started, and now I'm so thankful to be where I'm at now with crews and trucks and all that sort of stuff. It really has been awesome. Every step of the way I feel like God's provided and open doors and my family and friends have been awesome and supportive. It's great to be able to be doing 20 and 30 jobs a week and helping a lot of people."

Let me introduce you to Lewis Vandervalk who I had the pleasure of interviewing on the Living Limitless Podcast tonight. Lewis Vandervalk and I connected not too long ago through APEX, but to hear his story and how vulnerable he truly was is incredible for people to hear.

This is an interview I couldn't be more excited for! I have the incredible honor of having Bob Burg on The Blue Crocus Experience Podcast. A bit of backstory. Bob's book "The Go-Giver" changed my outlook on life and business last March. Instead of the desperation in "Getting" sales, he helped to change my perspective to giving value first, helping as many people as I could. When I saw Ken Walls Interview him a few weeks ago, I reached out to connect with Bob, and through a lovely messenger conversation, he agreed to jump on with me and chat about the concepts in his book, and more. Thank you Ken Walls for connecting us, and thank you Bob for joining me! Bob's new Go-Giver Success Alliance Mentorship Community: https://gogiversuccessalliance.com/ About Bob: Bob Burg is a sought-after speaker at company leadership and sales conferences sharing the platform with everyone from today's business leaders and broadcast personalities to even a former U.S. President. Bob is the author of a number of books on sales, marketing and influence, with total book sales of well over a million copies. His book, The Go-Giver, coauthored with John David Mann, itself has sold over 975,000 copies and it has been translated into 29 languages. His and John's newest parable in the Go-Giver Series is The Go-Giver Influencer. Bob is an advocate, supporter and defender of the Free Enterprise system, believing that the amount of money one makes is directly proportional to how many people they serve. He is also an unapologetic animal fanatic, and is a past member of the Board of Directors of Furry Friends Adoption, Clinic & Ranch in his town of Jupiter, Florida. ---------- Welcome to the internet's best produced podcast for contractors and business owners, hosted by Lewis Vandervalk of Blue Crocus Solutions.

Bruce Pulver is an extraordinary human who has found the beauty and strength hiding in the words we use every day. I greatly appreciated jumping on with Bruce, learning about his story and where he has come from. We talked about how he uses words to help people grow, find hope in these crazy times, and help companies and business leaders distill their values and mission into a single word. He has also written a book to distill these beautiful treasures. Each purchase of his book (it's really inexpensive), he will donate one to a hospital, library, or charity. Let's help spread the love!

How can I maintain a positive outlook after being “let go” and forced to deal with the cruel reality of landing a new job, position and career? One morning, a single message awakened me and pounded in my head. “I must be STRONG for my family.” I quickly reached for my nightstand journal and wrote S-T-R-O-N-G: S tand T all R emain O ptimistic N ow G o for it From that morning's S-T-R-O-N-G message, a daily writing routine began. Each day delivered a new message and forced me to pause, think, and frame a positive expectation for the day. Each message guided my thoughts, intentions and actions as I sought the new opportunity that would offer even greater potential. I shared the messages daily with my family. Together we formed an unstoppable optimism to persevere. We learned to take any setback and make it our springboard lifting us above any potentially adverse situation. Within 45 days, I landed a fantastic position with a great company. The messages continued to flow and motivate me to work hard to make good things happen in my new role. My writing emerged out of necessity, yet lasted four hundred consecutive days. They became a joyful routine of finding more inspiration and strength. Everything I learned in those days created something inspiring.” Connect with Blue Crocus Solutions on the web: https://www.bluecrocus.ca/ Join our Facebook Group for Contractors: https://www.facebook.com/groups/148165343156578/ Find the podcast here: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3Wu30ZfqiUcL9fYzZ8UE03 Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/ro/podcast/the-blue-crocus-experience/id1509376927 Google Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/?feed=aHR0cHM6Ly9hbmNob3IuZm0vcy8xZGY1YjM1Yy9wb2RjYXN0L3Jzcw%3D%3D

Skylar Lewis is a purpose driven entrepreneur who has been in the game since he was a teenager, starting several businesses and reaching what most would consider a successful point in his career. However, he quickly realized that money wasn't everything, and turned around and began again, starting a business on purpose. Purposely creating the business to honor God, be employee run, stand for Godly values, and help the community. He challenged me in several ways, and I know that listeners will appreciate the nuggets in here!

James Golden was thrust into the entrepreneurial world at an early age, and his story is one that really encouraged me when it comes to the ups and downs of the journey as a business owner. He found himself quite successful at an age when his friends were not making nearly what he was making, and then it all fell apart around him, and James was forced to reevaluate and level up. James has extensive knowledge in the pavement management space, and has a company called, (so weird the coincidence) Pavement Management Group. They are changing the technology in the industry, and working to level up the results that can be achieved, allowing tax dollars to be applied to solutions that truly take advantage of tax dollars.

David Webb is a second generation equipment repair expert, specializing in lifts of all kinds, especially spider lifts and other products for the tree industry. They do what most other manufacturers, repair shops, and warranty specialists can't or won't do as far as repairs go, even building custom parts in their shop to make sure your rig gets back in brand new, or sometimes better than new condition. Their company was built on values that are refreshing in this time, and they will do everything they can to help you get your equipment back in service without having to buy new.

Kit Moore and I had a terrific conversation about growth, risk, and common themes around those topics as they relate to entrepreneurs. We answer questions like "Why is risk central to growth and development? " and "What are some methods to manage risk?" Kit is the chief servant at BluePrint CPAs. Sure, he's a specialized tax accountant (CPA, CA) and can help you save in the six figures. More importantly, he's a serial entrepreneur with a ton of enthusiasm for growth strategies and execution. His industry depth in technology, construction, real estate, energy, agriculture and even cannabis deregulation complements his technical expertise in growth strategy, advanced tax structures, innovation, mergers and corporate finance. He's also a proud father and hubby - he loves Cassondra and his four children even more than entrepreneurship. When he's not running (his businesses), he likes fishing and cottaging. (in fact, we squeezed in this episode just before he headed out on a fishing trip!)

Jason Callaway is my guest today on The Blue Crocus Experience, and as always with the Callaway Clan, it was an absolute pleasure to chat with, learn from, and get to know Jason. He has a cool story. Uprooted from his previous job, he went all in on his contracting business 4 years ago and has built it up to a profitable venture. We chat about employees, compensation, business planning with Tom Reber, bookkeeping, buffalo, CHARGING WHAT YOU ARE WORTH, and a bit about his time in the marines.

I first came across Brian Hess through the Asphalt industry, but the more I got to know him, I realized that more people needed to get to know him through the podcast. He is an inspiration in his community, bringing daily live videos to his followers and uplifting and inspiring his audience. He's not just a talk show though. He has built up an asphalt empire across the US in the last couple years, and also started a training program called Top Contractor School to help contractors of all sizes grow and dominate their space.

Join Keith Callaway Sr. and I as we chat about his company, K&L Industries in Portland, Oregon. They do asphalt paving and sealcoating, and he dropped some GOLD in the form of tips and tricks their company is using to plow forward and grow while others are pulling back. Some lights out strategies in here. If you want to be featured in our podcast, send an email to Lewis@bluecrocus.ca and we can see if you are a good fit. We are especially interested in chatting with contractors who own their own businesses, so if you fit that description, get in touch.
