Most recruitment firms stall at $1M revenue. Greg Fischer broke through by building a high-retention offshore team, embedding himself inside client organizations with RPO, and using LinkedIn commenting as a smarter BD strategy. As Co-Owner of AMI Network, Greg scaled from $1M to $4.2M revenue and $1.4M profit sustaining 30–40% margins. His model: hire offshore staff directly, integrate them as equals, and use a 2:1 sourcer-to-recruiter ratio to free recruiters to bill more. Alongside that, he mastered RPO pricing, transforming a $30K placement into a $1.5M account. Today, as founder of Well Oiled Machine, Greg helps other firms replicate this approach. In this episode, he shares how to structure offshore teams for 85%+ retention, qualify RPO opportunities, and win clients through LinkedIn commenting. Episode Outline and Highlights 6:42 From solo founder's first hire to 40-person team. 7:40 Breaking the $1M ceiling with offshore hiring after failed BPOs. 12:37 Why sourcing was the first offshore function and how it lifted billings. 23:18 Landing a $50K/month RPO by reframing a client's hiring challenge. 28:07 How that grew into an $80K/month RPO account with 30–40% margins. 30:45 When to pitch RPO: the minimum job volume that makes it viable. 33:47 The “open + close” fee model that stabilized cash flow. 36:23 How a 2:1 sourcer-to-recruiter ratio frees recruiters to bill more. 39:08 Why most agencies fail with offshore—and how to do it right. 47:19 Choosing the right country: Mexico vs Philippines vs South Africa. 54:51 Greg's daily LinkedIn commenting routine that built an inbound pipeline. Key Takeaways Offshore Done Right Fuels Scale Greg's agency was stuck at $1M for four years. BPOs failed, freelancers flaked. The breakthrough came when he hired offshore staff directly, trained them thoroughly, and treated them as equals. Within three years, AMI scaled to $4M+ revenue with 30–40% profit margins and 85% retention. Offshore wasn't a cheap fix; it was the lever that freed recruiters to focus on revenue-driving work. The RPO Question That Unlocks Recurring Revenue A referral asked for an internal recruiter. Greg's partner asked: “Why now?” The answer—50 hires in six months—turned a $30K placement into a $50K/month retainer that ran three years, worth $1.5M. His rule: RPO only works with 5–10 requisitions/month and $15K+ revenue. Anything less is contingent search. Over time, he moved to an “open fee + closed fee” model that kept revenue flowing and profit margins at 30–40%. LinkedIn Strategic Commenting Works Greg built AMI Network through cold outbound. For Well Oiled Machine, he went another route: commenting daily on posts from 60 recruitment thought leaders. Thirty minutes before posting, thirty minutes after. The results? Comments hitting 20,000+ impressions—often outperforming original posts. On LinkedIn, comments are content, and for agency owners this is a repeatable, low-cost BD strategy that beats cold calling. Greg Fischer Bio and Contact Info Greg is the former Co-Owner of AMI Network, a healthcare recruitment agency that did $1.4M in Profit on just $4.2M in revenue. His secret? 18 of his 40 team members were Offshore high-performing employees, with annual retention over 85%. Now his firm, Well Oiled Machine recruits Offshore & Nearshore staff for Recruitment Firms & Staffing Agencies.

On today's Daily Windup, I break down the reality behind recent reports on the federal contracting market. While confidence is up thanks to the $2 trillion Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, the truth is small businesses are struggling more than ever. We're seeing 30% fewer small business entrants into the federal marketplace and 40% fewer firms supporting the government compared to just a decade ago. Agencies like NAVFAC are shifting nearly everything into long-term MAC and IDIQ contracts—deals most micro-businesses with under 10 employees can't even qualify for. The result? A widening gap between small firms and the billion-dollar giants. But here's the opportunity: the same reports highlight strategic teaming initiatives, business development, and cybersecurity as top priorities for success. I've seen firsthand how critical these are—I've even been hacked three times this year, and the government is about to roll out stricter CMMC cybersecurity requirements across solicitations. If you don't master BD, teaming, and compliance, you'll be left behind. This episode is my straight talk about the risks, the trends, and the skills every small business needs to survive in government contracting today.

Friend, let's be honest… how many planners have you started with excitement, only to abandon by February?New pens, fresh pages, maybe even some cute stickers. You were ready to conquer the year. But somewhere along the way, life happened, and your planner became a reminder that you weren't enough.I've been there too. And I want you to hear this: your value is not in your ability to fill a planner perfectly.This week on the Finding Freedom Co Podcast, I'm talking about why most planners fail busy moms, and more importantly, what God's Word says about true order in our lives. Here's a little sneak peek:Planning without God's guidance leads to stress and exhaustion.God's version of order isn't color-coded perfection, it's peace, priorities, and presence.Small shifts like starting your planning in prayer, choosing three weekly priorities, leaving margin for interruptions, and anchoring your week with scripture can change everything.Friend, your planner should serve you, not control you. And when you invite God into your weekly rhythm, even a messy week can feel full of purpose and peace.

Many writers feel compelled to share their story—but here's the hard truth: while everyone wants to tell their story, most readers don't actually want to read it.

You'll come away with practical insights on how to transform a personal narrative into a universal one that truly resonates. Hi!

A Candid Conversation About the Dreams We Put on Hold   In this role-reversal episode of the Rich Mind Podcast, Greg takes the host's seat and poses a powerful question to Randy: "If you knew you couldn't fail and wouldn't be judged, what's the one thing you would do today?" This thought experiment leads to a candid exploration of Randy's lifelong passion for classic cars and racing. The conversation is a transparent look at how our deepest passions, often formed in childhood, can get buried under the responsibilities and limiting beliefs of adult life. Listeners will learn the importance of identifying their true desires, the power of taking small, tangible steps towards a dream, and why facing the fear of regret is often a more powerful motivator than the fear of failure.   Key Takeaways:   The question "What would you do if you couldn't fail?" is a powerful tool to bypass your inner critic and identify your true passions. Your childhood dreams and passions often hold the key to what would bring you the most fulfillment in your adult life. You don't have to quit your life to pursue a passion; you can start by "dipping your toe in the water" through local clubs, volunteer opportunities, or conversations. Your existing relationships and network (a friend from a car club, a daughter's boyfriend who races) are often the doorways to your next opportunity. Limiting beliefs, such as "I need to do things on my own" or "My spouse wouldn't enjoy it," can prevent you from taking the first step. Setting an intention is a powerful first step that signals to your mind to start looking for opportunities and connections related to your goal. The fear of regret ("What if I never even try?") can be a more potent fuel for action than the fear of failure.   Questions Answered in This Episode:   What is the most powerful question to ask yourself to uncover your hidden passions? How do you turn a lifelong passion, like classic cars, into a tangible pursuit? What are the first small steps you can take to explore a new hobby or career path? How can you leverage your existing network to open doors to new opportunities? What common limiting beliefs stop us from pursuing our dreams? Why is it important to ask yourself if you will regret not doing something? How does setting a clear intention help you recognize opportunities you previously missed? How do you balance your personal passions with family responsibilities and commitments?   Key People, Concepts, & Terms:   People: Randy Wilson, Greg Junge. Concepts: No-Failure Mindset, Fear of Failure, Fear of Regret, Passion Projects, Self-Doubt, Limiting Beliefs, Taking Action, Setting Intentions, Networking. Events/Brands Mentioned: Mecum Auctions, Barrett-Jackson Auctions, Mazda Miata.   Key Episode Timestamps 00:00 - The Ultimate Question: What Would You Do If You Couldn't Fail? 02:00 - Randy's Answer: A Lifelong Passion for Racing and Classic Cars 04:21 - The Power of Being "In Your Element" (The Mecum Auction Story) 08:00 - The "Extreme Experience": Recounting the Thrill of Driving Supercars 13:09 - The First Step: Could You Volunteer or Join a Local Group? 14:21 - A Surprising Connection: Discovering a "Who" You Already Know 18:55 - Uncovering Limiting Beliefs: "My Wife Wouldn't Enjoy It" or "I Have to Go Alone" 21:07 - The Importance of Timing and Intergenerational Connections (Rowan) 32:28 - A Deeper Question: Would You Regret It If You Never Tried? 34:54 - The Final Takeaway: Set the Intention and Start the Conversation

Dr. Karen Daniels is a Professor in the Department of Physics at North Carolina State University. Karen's lab investigates the physics of how materials change state (e.g. from solid to fluid), how they deform, and how they may ultimately fail. She studies these questions across a variety of length and time scales, from microscopic phenomena that occur in less than a second to shifts in land that occur on geologic timescales and may lead to landslides. Travel is a passion for Karen. While traveling, she loves hiking on mountain trails, eating delicious food, discovering new foods that she can try to make at home, reading books, knitting, and interacting with new people and places. She received her BA in physics from Dartmouth College. Karen then worked for about three years as a science teacher at Saint Ann's School in Brooklyn before enrolling in graduate school at Cornell University where she earned her PhD in physics. She then conducted postdoctoral research at Duke University before joining the faculty at NCSU in 2005. Karen has been awarded a fellowship from the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation to support a yearlong sabbatical at the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics and Self-Organization in Göttingen, Germany. In addition, Karen was the recipient of a National Science Foundation Early Career Development (CAREER) Award, the Equity for Women Award from NCSU, and the LeRoy and Elva Martin Award for Teaching Excellence.

Why Most Leaders Fail at Emotional Intelligence (And the 5-Step System That Actually Works) Hey Friend! Building emotional intelligence is like building a house—and most leaders are trying to pick paint colors before laying the foundation. I realized this when I built my house on 5 acres in Oklahoma. My excitement about fixtures and finishes had to wait because my builder reminded me: "First we pick the elevation and style. That informs everything else." Your leadership development works the same way. If you've read EI books, taken assessments, and attended workshops but still feel like you're winging it under pressure, you're not broken—you're just building on unstable ground.

This episode gets real about why good delivery models go bad. Jason breaks down the traps that derail IPD, Design-Build, and CM at Risk, and shows how systems thinking, flow, and true collaboration keep projects on track. Key points: The “competitive design proposal” trap burns millions and cannibalizes unpaid design. Phased design without a full kit leads to rework: missing sleeves, embeds, blue bangers, and chaos. If it violates Goldratt's Rules of Flow, it will fail no matter the contract wrapper. Deming's lesson: we fail despite best efforts when we don't think in systems. Stop sub-optimizing and start collaborating across teams, trades, and tech. Update your playbooks continuously instead of treating methods as frozen versions. If you want delivery models that actually deliver, build the system first, protect flow, and make collaboration non-negotiable.

The Chicago Bears were dismantled by the Lions on Sunday afternoon in Ben Johnson's return to Detroit. Despite the blowout, rookie wideout Rome Odunze provided a lone bright spot, hauling in two touchdowns. Chicago's hopes unraveled early with three consecutive first-half turnovers and multiple controversial officiating decisions. To make matters worse, cornerback Jaylon Johnson and linebacker T.J. Edwards both aggravated existing injuries.Quinten Krzysko and Sunny Verma break it all down on Bears On Tap, sorting through the chaos from Ford Field and asking where the Bears go from here as their season teeters on the edge.#Bears #ChicagoBears #BenJohnson #CalebWilliams Bears On Tap is presented by ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠OnTapSportsNet.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, your go-to source for ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Bears news⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, analysis, and updates.Follow us on social media: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@BearsOnTap⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@OnTapSportsNet⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Panelists: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@ButkusStats⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@LuceOnTap⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@thesunnyv

Welcome to the newest evolution of How to Fail! Each week, I'll be diving into the archives to spotlight key themes that have come up throughout my conversations with How to Fail guests. I'll be sharing bite-sized takeaways every Monday to support, inspire and help with whatever you might be going through. This week's theme is a big one: we're talking all about grief. First, you'll hear a moving excerpt from my 2019 conversation with Mo Gawdat, who offered deeply validating and helpful advice for anyone navigating the loss of a loved one. Then, we revisit a 2024 episode with Bonnie Tyler, who talks about losing her beloved mother.. I hope this episode brings comfort, clarity and a little light to those who need it most.

Craig Sandlin and Mike Hart break down another missed opportunity for the Cincinnati Reds to make up ground in the NL Wild Card race. They discuss Hunter Greene's difficult start, the bullpen melt down, and the Athletics' powerful lineup. Craig also gives an update on the Red's minor league and a breakdown of Sunday's matchup with the Athletics.

Post-Gazette Steelers insiders Gerry Dulac and Ray Fittipaldo recap an NFL Week 2 loss to the Seattle Seahawks in the home opener at Acrisure Stadium. They sort through the defense's many issues in slowing down QB Sam Darnold, RB Kenneth Walker III and receiver Jaxson Smith-Njigba. Is it time to worry about coach Mike Tomlin's high-priced unit that includes names like Cam Heyward, T.J. Watt and Jalen Ramsey? Are injuries to names like Joey Porter Jr., DeShon Elliott and Alex Highsmith the bigger issues? And can DC Teryl Austin find solutions sooner than later? Our guys tackle those questions; a tepid performance, at best, from QB Aaron Rodgers, WR DK Metcalf and RB Jaylen Warren; and a costly gaffe by rookie RB Kaleb Johnson on a kickoff that contributed mightily to the defeat.

Veronique de Rugy critiques US tax "carveouts," identifying them as inefficient special interest deductions that often fail to incentivize desired behaviors, citing employer health insurance and mortgage interest deductions. While a flat tax would streamline the system and boost economic growth by focusing on consumption, de Rugy emphasizes that no tax system alone can resolve the severe US debt crisis; crucial reforms to Social Security and Medicare are indispensable. 1870 SIEGE OF PARIS

In this episode of Fuel Your Drive, I share real advice on what it truly takes to build a business from the ground up. I talk about starting GYMGUYZ in my parents' dining room, the power of patience, why you must be “patient with results but impatient with action,” and how risk, confidence, and consistency separate the winners from everyone else. I explain why words matter, why discipline beats “being busy,” and why lasting success only comes when you push through the pain, pressure, and setbacks that every entrepreneur faces. If you want to learn what it really takes to grow a business, this one's for you.

He took Loudcloud public with just $2 million in revenue (dubbed “the IPO from hell”), sold it for $1.6 billion, and has backed companies from Facebook to Stripe to Airbnb to OpenAI to Databricks (now worth more than $100 billion). His management philosophy—forged through near-death experiences and refined through coaching hundreds of CEOs—contradicts most conventional startup wisdom.In our conversation, Ben shares:1.
