Send us a textEver wondered what it takes to build a thriving, diversified business in the shed industry? Norman Eicher of Mountain View takes us behind the scenes of his remarkable journey from humble beginnings to running a multifaceted enterprise that's continuously expanding.Starting with a simple construction company that added shed sales in 2009, Norman has methodically grown his operation to include a truss plant, metal fabrication facility, and a full-scale lumberyard. The conversation reveals fascinating insights into his metal manufacturing innovations, where his team has developed techniques to produce trim pieces every 15 seconds rather than the traditional 30 seconds per piece. This kind of efficiency has allowed his metal business to nearly match his shed sales in revenue generation.What makes this episode particularly valuable is Norman's candid discussion about business relationships and profit margins. "If my employee isn't making me money, why is he here? If I'm not making Sam money, I need to figure out what I'm doing wrong," he shares, highlighting a refreshing perspective on value creation throughout the supply chain. Norman articulates why being upset when others profit from your work represents a problematic mindset that limits growth and cooperation.The episode takes fascinating detours into Norman's background – building rafters at age 12 for $2 an hour in Southern Ontario, his time in Illinois learning the shed business, and finally establishing his Tennessee operation in 2006. His approach to quality, particularly in customer interactions, underscores why superior service trumps price-cutting. "If your price is within 15%, they will buy based on your personality and your way of approaching them," he notes, explaining why one of his salespeople consistently outperforms expectations.Whether you're directly involved in the shed industry or simply interested in business growth strategies, Norman's philosophy that "quality will long outlast quantity" offers timeless wisdom. His predictions about market consolidation and insights on keeping transportation in-house provide food for thought for anyone navigating similar business decisions.Ready to learn more about diversification strategies that can weather market fluctuations?

Inside BNI UAE: 20 Years Of Building Business Through Relationships

Securing important early listings is a milestone of any new business. And earlier this spring, Red Fin Cider did just that by sealing a listing for both its Fresh Apple and their Meloncherry styles at Waitrose. 44 Waitrose stores now stock Red Fin Cider, a product launched by three industry veterans and friends, Freddie Rouse, Dave Tugwell and Graeme Baldwin, who saw a need for a new and vibrant brand in the category that was both independently craft but also accessible and a real celebration of Somerset apples, delivering a cider that stacks up in the world of craft beer. This follows on from the business quickly establishing itself in the on-trade, already gaining a significant national presence and loyal following since its launch in June 2024, becoming one of the fastest-growing cider brands and drinks brands in the UK. So what better time to revisit our conversation with co-founder Dave Tugwell. In this episode we reflect on how launching a new business is always an exciting time and a challenging one, too. He talks through the company's journey so far. We also discuss the trio launching into a competitive category, its place in the wider world of craft beer and its commitment to showing consumers that cider can, and should be, fun.

The Modern Acre PodcastAgListPolaris Energy ServicesNuss FarmsFor today's episode, I sit down with Tim and Tyler Nuss. Some of you may recognize their voices from their podcast, The Modern Acre. After growing up on the family farm and finding out in adulthood that they both were really interested in business, they started brainstorming ideas of how they could build something in the ag industry. Tyler said they were big fans of the real estate media brand “Bigger Pockets” which had a podcast and built a community and several adjacent businesses around it. They set out to do something similar in agriculture, and in their own way they have. I wanted to bring them onto the show because in the past year, Tyler announced he would be assuming the role of CEO for Polaris Energy Services and they both launched what they're calling the Yelp for agriculture which is called AgList. So they wear a lot of hats between these businesses, the podcast, and the farm.

Chris Thomas didn't plan on becoming a business owner—but when opportunity knocked, he answered. In this episode of American Potential, host David From sits down with Chris, an Army veteran and the owner of Tri-County Tower, to hear how military service shaped his leadership, and how a campfire conversation with his father-in-law changed the course of his life. Chris shares the behind-the-scenes story of buying and growing a tower construction business in small-town Ohio, the real impact of tax reform on his ability to expand and hire, and his passion for creating jobs—not just for the sake of profit, but to improve lives, including his own children with autism. This is a powerful conversation about grit, responsibility, and the freedom to build something meaningful in your own backyard. Whether you're a veteran, entrepreneur, parent, or policy advocate, Chris's story will leave you inspired.

Growing a private practice can be incredibly rewarding—but it can also feel really lonely.  When you're the one making all the decisions, managing a team, and trying to grow your business, it's easy to feel isolated and overwhelmed.  And without a trusted community to lean on, progress often feels slow, confusing, and more challenging than it needs to be. In this episode of the Private Practice Elevation Podcast, host Daniel Fava chats with two powerhouse group practice owners, Christy Pennison and Steph Korpal, who know firsthand how transformational it can be to have the right people in your corner.  As the co-founders of The Practice Collab, Christy and Steph are on a mission to help practice owners find connection, collaboration, and clarity through community. They dive into the power of building meaningful business relationships, joining mastermind groups, and having honest conversations with people who just get it.  Whether you're just starting to grow your team or already leading a multi-location practice, this conversation will remind you that you don't have to figure everything out alone—and in fact, you'll go further, faster, when you don't. Key Takeaways Connection Fuels Growth: Success in private practice doesn't have to happen alone. Community and collaboration can unlock new ideas, solutions, and energy. Masterminds Matter: Regularly connecting with others who understand the ups and downs of practice ownership can help you move forward faster. Support Builds Resilience: Having trusted peers can make all the difference when facing emotional and logistical challenges as a business owner. Implementation is Key: Don't just learn—act. Change happens when you take what you've learned and immediately apply it to your business. Every Practice is Unique: There's no one-size-fits-all strategy. The best advice takes your specific context into account.
