Brian Tibbs is on a mission to serve people by leveraging his skills and experience in building significant wealth. He is eager to hear your story and walk alongside you in your wealth-building journey. From a young age, it was evident to both Brian and those around him that he was destined to be a businessman. By the age of 26, he had already begun investing in real estate, was an executive in his father's financial services company, and co-owned a small online retail business. However, Brian felt called to a different path. Over the next three years, he married Jill Bramhall, resigned from his father's company, sold his online business, liquidated 60% of his real estate portfolio, and moved—sight unseen—to Guatemala.For the next 16 years, Brian built a team that recruited and trained 380 leaders to plant 96 churches across 11 countries. Together, they raised over $20 million for their cause and constructed more than 150,000 square feet of churches and related facilities. Despite dedicating themselves to ministry, Brian and Jill earned very little money. When calculated against their total working hours, their earnings equated to just $9.20 per hour—less than the legal minimum wage in most states.Even with their limited income, they successfully built a multi-million dollar net worth. They no longer rely on jobs to pay their bills but instead have the financial freedom to choose work on their own terms. Their modest salary forced them to develop a wealth-building philosophy that didn't depend on a high income. It was through this financial constraint that the HACKER Method was discovered and implemented, enabling the Tibbs family to achieve financial independence by Brian's 44th birthday.Although Brian has stepped away from full-time missionary work, his passion for serving others remains strong. He launched The Unexpected Investor with the singular goal of helping people who feel financially constrained transform into wealthy, powerful, and generous investors using the HACKER Method.Chapters00:00 Introduction and Current Economic Perspectives04:46 Investment Strategies in Changing Markets08:39 Brian Tibbs' Journey and Experience12:18 Key Metrics in Short-Term Rentals16:04 Navigating Airbnb's Algorithm and Reviews19:40 Regulatory Landscape for Short-Term Rentals22:41 Navigating the Challenges of Short-Term Rentals25:08 The Value of Specialization in Real Estate26:44 The Growth Potential of Short-Term Rentals27:57 Exit Strategies in Short-Term Rental Investments29:00 The Hacker Method: Building Wealth31:50 Educational Resources for Short-Term Rental Investors34:26 Due Diligence in Passive Investing36:43 Supporting Emerging Entrepreneurs37:41 Investing in Others: A Personal Touch39:02 outro RANDY SMITHConnect with our host, Randy Smith, for more educational content or to discuss investment opportunities in the real estate syndication space at www.impactequity.net, https://www.linkedin.com/in/randallsmith or on Instagram at @randysmithinvestorKeywordseconomy, investing, short-term rentals, Airbnb, market trends, passive income, real estate, Brian Tibbs, The Hacker Method, community building

David Gower, CEO and Chairman of Emerita Resources (TSX.V: EMO) (OTCQB: EMOTF), joins me to outline the key metrics and takeaways from the updated Mineral Resource Estimate announced on March 11th on the wholly owned polymetallic Iberian West Project (IBW), located in southern Spain. We also get an update on the legal proceedings at the Aznalcóllar Project later in the conversation.   The Mineral Resource Estimate is based on 105,554 meters of drilling by the Company comprising 299 drill holes and is hosted in three volcanogenic massive sulphide deposits on the project; La Romanera (LR), La Infanta (LI), and the more recently delineated El Cura (EC) deposit (LR=169 holes totaling 70,344m; LI=91 holes totaling 20,975m; EC=39 holes totaling 14,235m). All three deposits remain open for further expansion by future drilling. The IBW project is reporting:   A Total Indicated MRE of 18.96 million tonnes grading 2.88% zinc, 1.42% lead, 0.5% copper, 66 g/t silver, and 1.28 g/t gold (8.44% ZnEq or 3.01% CuEq); A Total Inferred MRE of 6.80 million tonnes grading 3.25% zinc 1.50% lead, 0.73% copper, 56.3 g/t silver, and 0.77 g/t gold (8.72% ZnEq or 3.00% CuEq); The updated Mineral Resource Estimate achieves numerous improvements when compared to the previous May 23, 2023 MRE, which include a +35% increase in Total Indicated MRE tonnage and a +44% increase in Total Inferred MRE tonnage; There was also an increased gold metal content within the Total Indicated MRE from 629 Koz to 783 Koz, which is an increase of +154 Koz (+24%) with a likewise increase in contained gold within the Total Inferred Resource from 137 Koz to 168 Koz or an increase of +31 Koz (+23%) gold, respectively;   El Cura is still being drilled with 4 rigs, and is located in between La Infanta and La Romanera, but more closely resembles La Romanera metallurgically, returning higher gold values along with the base metals. David walks us through how each of these 3 deposit areas plays into the larger development strategy, where the earlier stage mining decline at La Romanera can now drift through El Cura on the way to the development of La Infanta, bringing in El Cura in as a future economic driver much earlier in the mining sequence.  We discuss all the derisking work going on in the background building toward the PFS this year, as well as an update on the environmental permits anticipated to come in over the next couple months.   We wrap up getting an update on where things are in the courts, with the sentencing portion of the legal proceedings have commenced on March 3rd, furthering the clarity on whether Emerita Resources will be awarded the high-grade polymetallic Aznalcóllar Project later this year, as the only other qualified bidder at the time.   If you have any follow up questions for David regarding Emerita Resources, then email those in to me at  Shad@kereport.com.   Click here to follow the latest news from Emerita Resources

In this episode, Ross Simmonds conducts an insightful discussion with an AI, answering five crucial questions about B2B marketing strategies. If you're looking to enhance your B2B marketing efforts, this episode is packed with valuable insights on content marketing, lead generation, and evolving buyer behaviors. Key Takeaways and Insights: 1. Key Differences Between B2B and B2C Marketing Decision-Making Factors: B2C purchases are driven by personal emotion and individual financial decisions. B2B decisions involve multiple stakeholders, procurement teams, and higher scrutiny, especially for expensive solutions. Buyer's Journey Considerations: Multiple touchpoints, evaluations, and approvals before a purchase is made. B2B buyers check case studies, references, product documentation, and validate company reputation before making a decision. 2. Evolution of the B2B Buyer's Journey Why the B2B buying process is more complex today: The rise of AI and automation has led to an overwhelming amount of messages, advertisements, and sales outreach, making it harder to stand out. Impact on Buyers: Buyers are more resistant to cold outreach. Personalized messaging and authentic storytelling are key to cutting through the noise. Effective Tactics to Adapt: Hyper-targeted content marketing and personalized messages tailored to the specific needs of decision-makers. 3. The Top B2B Lead Generation Channels Today Why LinkedIn is Dominating B2B Marketing: LinkedIn's algorithm now favors broader content discovery, similar to Facebook and X (formerly Twitter). Its video content capabilities are driving significant engagement. Golden Rule: High-quality, informative, and engaging content is necessary to leverage any platform effectively. Distribution strategy is just as important as content creation. 4. The Role of Content in B2B Brand Building Challenges in Standing Out: AI enables mass production of average content, increasing competition. Brands need to focus on unique insights and high-value content instead of generic "how-to" guides. Winning Content Strategies: Conducting original research and case studies. Crafting stories that resonate with target audiences. Publishing thought leadership content and leveraging community engagement. 5.  Measuring ROI for B2B Marketing Efforts The Importance of Full-Funnel Attribution: Tracking leads from initial engagement to final conversion. Using tools like HubSpot for pipeline tracking and performance analysis. Key Metrics to Monitor: How many leads turn into real opportunities? Which opportunities convert into actual sales? Attribution models that help understand what efforts are driving real revenue. Resources & Tools:

We explore the world of asset class conversions with special guest Clint Harris, who specializes in turning empty big-box buildings (think old Kmarts and abandoned textile mills) into profitable self-storage facilities. Clint shares why changing consumer needs (especially among younger renters) is sparking new demand for creative reuse, and how savvy operators can use “cap rate arbitrage” to transform distressed properties at half the cost (and in a fraction of the time) compared to ground-up development. If you're curious about office-to-multifamily flips, hotel conversions, or self-storage projects, this episode offers an inside look at the rewards and pitfalls of going beyond traditional real estate strategies. Today's Episode Takeaways: - Why Conversions? How shifting consumer habits and vacant properties create “cap rate arbitrage.” - Storage Boom: Millennials now make up 38% of self-storage users, transforming the classic “store your junk” model into a climate-controlled, in-and-out amenity. - Key Metrics for Conversions: What operators look for in population density, traffic counts, and market rent comps to ensure profitability. - Challenges & Pitfalls: How unanticipated change orders and extended timelines can sink a project if you lack the right experience or vertical integration. - Beyond Self-Storage: From offices to hotels, RV parks to tiny-home villages—why any distressed asset can be repurposed with the right vision, team, and risk management.

This year, a change in administration and a larger staff has afforded us a new opportunity: to set some benchmarks that we can check back on in two and four years. Doing something as expansive as this hasn't been possible for me, alone, in the past. But with the growth of our team over the last four years, I wanted to take advantage of our deep roster to do something much bigger and more comprehensive. So, as a team (and with the help of our readers), we've decided to lay out a series of reference points for both the incoming administration and the country as President Trump heads into office. Today, we're going to share a list of these benchmarks, with some numbers or assessments on where they stand today. We've also set a calendar reminder to publish newsletters checking in on them in two and four years, so we'll come back to the list then and explore how the Trump administration — and the country — is doing.This is a preview of today's special edition that is available in full and ad-free for our premium podcast subscribers.

Last week, my guest, Ben Dear, the founder and CEO of Osmosis Investment Management, started sharing his extraordinary journey – a 17-year journey of career pivots that ultimately led him to create one of the most innovative sustainable investment funds. We paused at the pivotal moment when he founded Osmosis, which now manages over $17 billion in assets.Today, we're continuing the Osmosis story and diving into the groundbreaking strategies behind its success. Ben explains how his team developed a systematic, data-driven approach to investing, using their resource efficiency factor to measure carbon, water, and waste management as predictors of company returns. This method allows Osmosis to build portfolios that consistently outperform benchmarks while significantly reducing environmental footprints.We also talk about ESG data – what's broken, why it matters, and how Osmosis collects, cleans, and standardizes its own data to ensure accountability. Ben unpacks the nuances of portfolio construction, balancing risk and reward, and shares how they've managed to cater to global institutional clients while staying laser-focused on their mission: delivering returns that are both financial and environmental.If you still doubt that sustainability can drive profitability – or that a boutique firm can achieve explosive growth while redefining public equity investing – this episode is a must-listen.Let's pick up where we left off!–About the SRI 360° Podcast: The SRI 360° Podcast is focused exclusively on sustainable & responsible investing.

Looking for daily inspiration? Get a quote from the top leaders in the industry in your inbox every morning.   TJ Christensen is the Founding Partner and CEO of BlueGator, a company dedicated to helping theme parks, zoos, aquariums, museums, and other attractions enhance their operations by leveraging Salesforce as a CRM and data integration platform. TJ's journey into hospitality began as a Disney College Program participant working in parking at Disney MGM Studio (now Hollywood Studios), where he caught the “hospitality bug.” From there, he advanced through roles in sales, marketing, and guest experience at Disney, followed by a decade-long tenure at accesso, leading their sales operations and helping the company expand globally. BlueGator, co-founded with a former accesso colleague, focuses on bringing advanced data integration solutions to nonprofits and attractions, streamlining their guest and donor engagement processes. In this interview, TJ talks about wrestling with data, connecting the dots, and the four key metrics.   Wrestling with Data "You have to bring all the data that each one of those systems has, and you have to make sense of it and be able to use it."   TJ discusses the challenge of consolidating data from disconnected systems within attractions and nonprofits, where operations often rely on multiple, independent platforms like ticketing systems, point-of-sale systems, and fundraising tools. This lack of integration leads to "wrestling with data," requiring manual workarounds that are time-consuming and prone to errors. BlueGator's approach centers on creating a unified platform using Salesforce, eliminating data silos and providing a comprehensive view of guest interactions and operations. By streamlining data, TJ's team helps operators overcome the “spaghetti and spiderwebs” of traditional data integration, reducing friction and allowing them to better serve guests and meet organizational goals.   Connecting the Dots "It's not just about the ones and zeros. It's about the impact that experience can have on someone's trajectory in life."   For TJ, effective data integration goes beyond the technology itself—it's about enhancing guest experiences and making meaningful connections. He emphasizes that whether it's a visit to a museum, zoo, or aquarium, the interactions guests have can be life-changing, fostering lifelong passions or interests. BlueGator's work involves linking disparate data streams—like ticketing and donor engagement systems—to present a holistic view of each visitor's journey. This integration allows attractions to personalize interactions, boost guest engagement, and foster deeper emotional connections. TJ draws from his background at Disney and accesso to illustrate how technology can support meaningful guest engagement without losing sight of the human impact.   The Four Key Metrics "Recency, frequency, duration, and spend—those are the four pillars or key metrics."   TJ introduces the framework of four key metrics—recency, frequency, duration, and spend—as a way to measure and optimize guest engagement. By focusing on how recently a guest visited, how often they return, how long they stay, and how much they spend, operators can build targeted strategies to maximize value and deepen relationships with their visitors. TJ explains that this structured approach allows attractions to understand and anticipate guest behavior, enabling tailored communications and offers that drive repeat visits and greater overall satisfaction. BlueGator applies this framework to create data-driven solutions that help operators achieve their business goals while keeping guests at the center of their mission.
