On the 30th anniversary of the Commonwealth Games which were held in Canada, I review the amazing achievements of the Northern Ireland boxing team back in 1994. I discuss the team members and their path to those games. I also rewind back to the Ulster championships that year to see who would be selected for the team. Some of the great names featured include; Neil Sinclair, Jim Webb, Mark Winters, Martin Reneghan, Damean Kelly and many more. At the games itself, an 11 strong team would come back with 2 Gold and 2 Silver medals. I also talk about what each boxer did afterwards including some amazing successes in the professional ranks. If there are any other past championships you think would be good to cover in future episodes, please let me know.
Ah! The flowers are in bloom and it must be spring. For our spring episode, we're lucky to have Andy Heist with us in studio. After begging him for many years to come on Backyard Road Trips, he finally graced us with his presence. In addition to Andy, Zack's son Danny, his wife Jackie and his mom, Linda stop by to say hello. The group talk about all fun things coming up this spring including a new walk series from the Last Green Valley, Plymouth's (MA) craft beverage scene, and readying the house and garden for the season. All the while they try Jim's homemade hot sauce (delicious!) with him describing what goes into the hot sauce making process. Along with the sauce, they're sipping beer from home brewer, Mark Winters. To cool their palate, they sample three local vanilla ice creams; Arethusa Farms, Batch, and Hood while hearing about Andy's solar eclipse trip.

Welcome back to Making Bank. On today's episode, we have a compilation of previous episodes with Dan Kuschell, Chandler Bolt, Josh Cantwell, Calvin Wayman, Mark Winters, Sean Stephenson and Hal Elrod and in this episode you will hear tips and tricks from top entrepreneurs about the guide to success. (2:26) Dan Kuschell Your company will only grow to the extent you'll take it. In business, it is very important to have the ability to sell, to do marketing, increase your productivity, having emotional mastery over your mindset, leadership and lastly ability to recruit or hire. You need not necessarily master all of these but having a team that has all of these is the most effective way to success. (5:58) Chandler Bolt Routines are your biggest helpers. If your strongest skill is work ethics then your second strongest skill should be discipline. If you want to be successful you have to work for it. It won't happen by accident. You need to have a regular healthy routine that will help you. You don't need to necessarily follow someone's routine to the mark. Just find one that works for you and stay disciplined. (8:06) Josh Cantwell Being able to understand what you can say no to is very crucial. Your rate of success does not depend on the number of opportunities that come to your desk. It's the number of opportunities you say yes to and what you say no to. Identify what opportunities to say yes to and what to say no to. Don't spread yourself too thin and try not to be too excited about all the opportunities that come your way. (13:24) Calvin Wayman We tend to think that all things should only be done perfectly. As a result we stop ourselves if we feel like it is not up to the mark. This is very wrong thinking. Sloppy work is better than no work. Just remember to make it consistent. Being consistent about the work you do, especially uncomfortable work will really help you in making yourself better and overcoming difficulties along the way. (17:52) Mark Winters You can't do it all by yourself. Having a team that is good at the things that you are not good at is the best way to become successful. This however is one of the biggest challenges that you will face in your journey as an entrepreneur. You will need to figure out a way to attract these individuals to help you in your work. It is also very important to have a working system that will run your business smoothly. (22:53) Sean Stephenson Insecurity makes you feel like you are not enough. It lives in all of us. Many times when we look at someone who is already successful, we tend to feel insecure about ourselves. When you do this, it'll make you miserable. Remember everyone has their challenges and their own difficulties. What you see may not be the entire picture. So stop comparing yourself with others and just keep taking your career one day at a time and in your own timing you will succeed if you work hard. (32:27) Hal Elrod The two greatest principles that will lead to success are enthusiasm and work ethics. Work very hard and at the same time be super excited at the things you do. However, remember that being enthusiastic just to win over some customers will only get you so far. You have to be authentic. It has to be real because when it is authentic, nothing you do will seem like a chore and you'll love every bit of it.

Deborah Razo Real Estate Investor Founder of the Women's Real Estate Network Always an independent spirit, Deborah started her first business in 1990. After owning and partnering in several successful small businesses, she realized that her path to financial freedom was through real estate investing. In addition to her business degree and graduate work at UCLA's Anderson School of Management, Deborah expanded her investing education in 2011 with a series of intensive workshops with Robert Kiyosaki, The Rich Dad Advisors and The Real Estate Radio Guys. It was a natural transition to her, shifting gears from her 20-year design firm to her booming rehabbing business in Southern California. With her first house flip netting near $100,000 in profits, her business took off. Her strategy of flipping houses in California for capital and buying and holding for cash flow in other markets for long term wealth has proven to be a success. Deborah has a flare for fixing and flipping properties, from purchase, rehabbing, marketing and sale processes to tools and techniques for locating properties, analyzing market values, timely decision making to capitalize on opportunities, crafting offers, negotiating, effective due diligence, budgeting, assembling teams, hiring contractors, staging and marketing the sale for profit. With an unsurpassed expertise in renovation and team management, Deborah began purchasing foreclosures in the Memphis area. And just 2 years ago moved from rehab to development. After only 7 years, she now controls over $5 million in real estate and has done several more million in deals. She is currently focusing her energy on partnering with investors seeking financial freedom. She is also the founder of the Women's Real Estate Network (WREN), a community where women in real estate excel and empower each other. We share experiences, resources and tools to help one another grow both personally and professionally. Currently with Chapters in LA, Seattle, OC, Phoenix, Atlanta and San Diego. More to open this year in Las Vegas and Washington DC. Deborah was recently name Woman to Watch by the national publication Think Realty and was recently selected to be on the cover of the Women's Issue in March of 2020.

This relationship is an integral part of the organization's success. The Visionary/Integrator relationship is one I hear a lot of business owners wrestling with. Here is why - A lot of you likely fall on the visionary end of the spectrum. You have a head full of ideas and a heart full of passion. You took the entrepreneurial leap and gave birth to what would become the business you own and lead today. You saw opportunities where others didn't and you have a natural ability to see what you COULD build. But here's the thing. Visionaries can wreck companies. It's possible to have too much vision and too many ideas. A Visionary can easily rip their team in a million directions or load them down with an unreasonable number of projects. Visionaries are also typically pretty terrible with holding accountability. And your business pays for that. The answer is to find an integrator. But Just because you find an integrator, doesn't mean your business will thrive. The Visionary/Integrator relationship is like a marriage. And just like a marriage needs frameworks, habits, and methods of communication that will set it up for a shot at long-term success, so does the relationship between a visionary and an integrator. Click the links below to hear from Mark Winters, the co-author of Rocket Fuel: The One Essential Combination That Will Get You More of What You Want from Your Business. Mark shares the frameworks you'll need to set up to successfully navigate the waters of one of the business's most powerful relationships. Episode Highlights: - The visionary/integrator dynamic and why it can lead to friction or harmony depending on the relationship - The character traits of the visionary and the integrator and why you typically won't be both - Why does not everyone wants to be the visionary, and why the integrator role is so important - The benefits to a business that has both roles as opposed to a business that only has one or the other leading the team - The amount of Visionary 'Juice' that a business needs and why a business will die when they have too much vision - 4 ‘Readiness Signs' a visionary be aware of that will tell them it's time to go and find an integrator Watch the episode on PCA Overdrive PCA Overdrive is free for members.

I do wonder how many business owners find themselves where I've been, feeling like they're working hard and doing all the things they see industry leaders doing but not experiencing even a fraction of their success? They're burning rubber with the wheels spinning and have barely crossed the start line, let alone the finish line. I first encountered my guest today through Pat Flynn's YouTube channel. Pat is someone I've been following for a long time and this guest said that you can't expect people to take you seriously in business if you don't have anything they can buy on your website. It was a wake-up call for me and the start of my learning from someone who has now become a business mentor and a friend. His name is Chris Ducker and he's the author of several best selling books including Virtual Freedom and Rise of the YouPreneur. In this episode: Chris' biggest influence builder Why most entrepreneurs are starting in the wrong place How to level up your business The damage done by shortcuts Why Chris started a podcast The power of being prepared and more... This is an unmissable episode if you are in business yourself, especially if you're not taking off and feeling frustrated. Chris gave several book recommendations on the show: Zig Ziglar's See you at the top https://amzn.to/3LGNyAI (https://amzn.to/3LGNyAI) Gary Vaynerchuck's Crush It https://amzn.to/3y2U0y5 (https://amzn.to/3y2U0y5) and Rocket Fuel by Gino Wickman and Mark Winters https://amzn.to/3vs9g65 (https://amzn.to/3vs9g65 ) You can find out more about Chris, his books, the incubator program, his round table, podcast and more from his website https://www.chrisducker.com/coaching (https://www.chrisducker.com/coaching) and he's always happy to connect with people on social media.

Growing up in an entrepreneur business life with her parents, she learned early on to smile, be happy and bring in a ray of sunshine. Today this guest is running a women's program at Tect Center in Eastman, Georgia— which is a gym focusing on MMA and jujitsu through Jimmy Barnett— Taylor Windley found her group of people and she loves her job and life. Meet Taylor. You'll immediately hear her encouragement and confidence. We talk about having a voice on the mat and loosing the intimidation one can have when going in to train in jujitsu. She got advice while in the jiujitsu community to overcome her insecurities, become a good leader and increase her own game. She realized that how she felt would spill over into her students and she wanted to bring the best forward. Taylor has a heart for women who have experienced domestic violence to give them power that she too found — with personal connection— that leads her to be comfortable in her own skin and presents opportunities to share her skills. According to Taylor, jujitsu is empowering in that you can use skills you learn that can protect you—you don't have to worry or look over your shoulder, it can make you be more comfortable in day to day living. We talk about relationships and working together with your partner like she and Jimmy do every day. Learning to put away on the shelf some issue while they work -- yet sometimes they take it to the mat. She jokingly says that it is terrific couples therapy. When we talk of their specific gym feel, Taylor says that it is “slow is steady, steady is smooth, smooth is fast” as people just try to blast through life. She says they focus on technique. You will find sayings to encourage on the walls throughout the gym. Life lessons are sprinkled throughout the programs they hold on every level. Taylor is fascinating as she talks about the benefits of the stable and steady aspect of gym life. Team building and coordination are elements that translate off of the mats. You'll hear Taylor talk about challenges that affected her that she thinks of as learning experiences which landed her in places to share or give to others. She would tell her younger self that "she is worth more than the situations you put yourself in." Great advice and encouragement. Taylor is a reader and can recommend both serious business reading and reading for pleasure. On the business side she and partner Jimmy are reading like Rocket Fuel by Gino Wickman and Mark Winters that explores the visionary and the integrator in business and the roles they play. You then might see Taylor pick up a mystery and lose herself in some fiction writing. Tune in! Music “STOMP” used by permission of artist Donica Knight Hoidman and Jim Huff

On today's show we're taking a deep look at the book “Rocket Fuel” by Gino Wickman and Mark Winters. In addition to being book of the month, this is a book that we use deeply within the operation of our business. We hold regular weekly and quarterly meetings. The conduct of those meetings is framed through the teachings of this book, along with two other books. Not only that, we have undertaken a book study within the leadership team of our assisted living business. The various construction managers, regional executive directors for each site, and the CEO of our operations company are all participating in the book study. The way we conduct the book study is by reviewing one chapter each week together on a 30-45 minute zoom call. Each of the members of the team shares what they internalized from that chapter and how the teachings of that chapter apply to our business. If you haven't undertaken a book study, this is another way to consume content that involves internalizing the book's contents in a meaningful way. So let's dig into the book Rocket Fuel. The title might seem a little obscure. The idea behind the title is that rocket fuel is made up of two vastly different elements, hydrogen and oxygen. By themselves, hydrogen and oxygen don't have huge energy potential. But in combination, the results are extraordinary. So what does this obscure analogy have to do with business? In companies that have visionary leadership, many of them fail because they lack the leadership to execute. At the other end of the spectrum, companies that focus on execution alone and lack vision also underperform. Those companies that achieve escape velocity are those that have a visionary leader, and an integrator. These are different skills and the magical pairing of these two attributes in two top leaders are the key to enable breakthrough performance. --------------- Host: Victor Menasce email: podcast@victorjm.com

Good to speak to you today. I'm looking forward to our conversation after the conversation. We just, Casey: sometimes those initial conversations are the most interesting. Sometimes I'm like, I wish we would have hit record. Sarah: Exactly. We need to kind of do a, you know, bonus conversation. Yeah. [00:06:00] Release that after. But yeah, today we're going to be talking about. Difference between vision and passion. You kind of made this, your expertise in a way and help you know, female business owners with that Casey: bigger vision. And, Sarah: and so, yeah, I want to start right there because it does, those are two big words that we Casey: hear a lot. Sarah: But in fact, maybe we haven't actually stopped to think about, well, what do they mean? And what's the difference between the two. So can you enlighten us? Casey: What's the difference? Yeah. Okay. Well, so first of all, The work I do. We talk a lot about working with a visionary business owners and for anyone who has not heard this term, I'm, what's called a fractional integrator and a fractional integrator comes into a business. With the business owner or the visionary business owner. And our job is [00:07:00] to take someone who is a very big picture idea person with lots of passion. And I, and I like a forward thinking, you know, we're tagging creative personality types, those people, traditionally, aren't very organized and they're not they're a little bit scattered and they are amazing. And what I started to notice is that I was taking calls from people who would say they wanted to work with an integrator. And so we would start diving into the work, which one of the first things that we do when we start working together is to create what's called the business blueprint. And part of that business blueprint is articulating your vision, your mission and your values. And one of the things I recognized. In some cases, we were having a really hard time getting to an actual vision. And so I noticed that there is a difference [00:08:00] in some cases between an actual vision and just having a passion for something. And so. One of the differences between having a vision and having a passion is that a vision is typically something, first of all, is forward thinking, right? So you're looking out into the future at something. And when you have a vision, one of the ways, you know, it's a vision is your. I see the future. And you're able to tangibly describe what that future looks like after you are successful. So a vision traditionally involves changing something. So maybe we're changing. You know, we're changing our customers or we're changing our community. We're changing the world, the planet, whatever we're making some sort of change to the way. Things operate. And a lot of times that vision might have some sort of social responsibility attached to it or making people's lives easier. And in any case, that's what a vision is. [00:09:00] Now. When someone comes to me, And has a hard time articulating what that future vision looks like. That's when I know we have a passion and a passion can be something that we feel really strongly about, and we just maybe don't really know or understand where we want that to go. And that doesn't mean it's bad, or you don't have a business. It just means that your approach to the business is a little bit different. Versus, you know, if we have a vision and we, we definitely have like, there's an end goal in sight. And as the integrator, we're D we're defining what those steps are to achieving that end goal. And that's how we operate. And with a passion, we don't necessarily, we still have goals a little bit, but they're less aligned to what the future looks like. I'm more aligned to what it looks like achieving this passion that you have. I Sarah: love that. So it's really like vision is the big picture, future oriented and kind of tied to maybe something external of your [00:10:00] business, not just internal or personal. Absolutely. And then the passion. Yeah. You know what we usually understand on their passion. It's just something that you're very passionate about. And it doesn't mean that it's attached to the future or, or to something external that, and then you also brought in this other word, which is mission. And I think I might've been confusing vision with missions. It what's the difference between vision and mission and how. Casey: You know, and they're so closely tied together that it can I do that even still sometimes. And you'll know a vision because there is a future state. So when you're articulating a vision, you're describing like, you're, you're like what's a movie I saw recently where it was a future movie, but you're basically describing the state of the world as it will be. Yeah, 10 years from now or 20 [00:11:00] years from now, or a hundred years from now, or whenever, you know, that vision plays out. And a mission is more of, this is the focus that my company has to achieve that vision. And if I can use an example of really. I'll use my own vision. For example, we are very centered on lifting up women in leadership. We want more women leading companies. We want more women leading countries. We want more voices in that place of leadership. And so one of the one of the things I wrote down in my. My description of what my future would look like is hello, Madam president. So in the United States, we have never had a woman leading the country or a woman president. And so if you think about your mission and achieving that, My company, she, sweet boutique is not directly going to be responsible for putting a woman in the president's seat. Like that's not our focus. However, the [00:12:00] work that we are doing is going to change the way that people view women and women's voices. So what is our focus going to be to make that happen? And so our focus is really on leading. Women owned businesses. And so that is how we are going to be lifting up women's voices in leadership and making it more normalized to see a woman leading a seven or eight figure business. Sarah: I love that. Yeah. That, that makes a lot of sense. That kind of difference. I can't guarantee that I won't mix them up again, but it feels like I understood passion really well. Mission and vision. Yeah. I see the future in the vision because that, you know, it's kind of in the word where the mission is like, well, what am I going to do? It's kind of like a more next steps for vision Casey: is oriented thing. Yeah. And don't feel bad because you know [00:13:00] what, that still happens to me sometimes too. Cause I'll be talking to a client and I'll have to stop and think. Are we talking like vision? Are we talking mission here? And the most important thing is not that it's like, I mean, there's, there's a lot of gray area here. And I think the most important thing is the purpose of having a mission and vision is to keep everyone, keep you focused and moving in the right direction and keep your team focused and moving in the right direction. So as long as those vision and mission gives your team members a clear sense of here's what we're here to accomplish. And here's how we're going to go about doing that. Then I think, you know, let's not split hairs. That's a cliche term that we use. Sarah: Talk about that then, because once we have the. Do we need those, you know, typical vision or mission statements that everybody talks about and are these helpful for companies or what's the Casey: alternative? Yeah. Yes, they are helpful. And I think we [00:14:00] need to, a lot of us need to change the way we're thinking about vision and mission. What I find is a lot of companies articulated vision and mission and they, and they articulate it in a way that is It's like a marketing tool for them. So I I'm, you know, you can probably understand that where, oh, if we have like this vision and mission that people really connect with or, you know, it resonates with them and that's not, I mean, that should be that your secondary motive for creating a vision and mission. So the primary motive is internal based. We, so we use something called the company persona and the company personally. Basically your vision, mission and values, and the importance of having these as creating context for your team members so that they are looking at your business as if it is a person, right. We're trying to create personal, personalized, or personified qualities in the business. So that as [00:15:00] we're thinking. About making decisions or talking on behalf of the company, we're thinking in our head, like, who is this company as a person? What do they think? What do they believe? What do they value? How do they respond? How do they act? How do they interact? And so it, it really brings the company to life and that's the importance of having a vision and a mission is you're, you're changing from thinking. As a company or thinking in terms of intangible thinking, in terms of things like profits or money or dollars or sales or customers in your thinking, like what, you know, like what is this person and what is our goal in life? Yeah. Sarah: And I'm sure that applies, even if you're a one person company, it just becomes much more personal. Yes. Yeah. And another big Casey: word that just came up for me is purpose. [00:16:00] Yeah. Sarah: That probably all fits in there. Where else? Casey: Well, right. Yeah. We use purpose and vision interchangeably. So sometimes I use purpose because I think it's easy. Like it's a word that we use more often and we understand it, like in our minds, A lot of sense, like, oh, I know what purpose is, purpose means this. And so if you think of your vision in terms of this is your purpose in life, then it makes a lot more sense. And the same thing goes for mission is we use, sometimes we use mission and focus. Interchangeably. So once you know your purpose, then what is your company's focus? Like how are you narrowing down what it is you're delivering to the customer or to the audience that is kind of leading you or contributing to the achievement of your purpose in some way. Sarah: So before you mentioned this kind of gimmicky approach to vision and mission statements where you just [00:17:00] put it out on your website and then you're like, okay, check. We did that. And so now are, you know, website visitors can see that we have such a good vision and mission. And so you would actually not recommend to have it on Casey: the website at all, or what. No for sure. I mean, for sure you can put it on the website. I'm just suggesting that. Instead of looking at your vision and mission statement through the lens of how are people going to perceive me? You look at it through the lens of what are we looking to achieve. So do that first, right? Because you have to be able to articulate to your teams and to your people. Okay. what is my purpose here? What am I doing before? You're going out to customers. And the other reason that this is really important is that your, what you're putting out to your customers has to align with what you're doing as a team. So if your vision says [00:18:00] one thing, but your actions. Don't align with what that vision is. There's a big disconnect and you're actually going to create a bad experience for customers. And, you know, they're going to be like, well, this isn't, this, isn't what the company is telling me about themselves. And so I don't trust them anymore. Yeah. The Sarah: same thing applies to like these sustainability messages. Everybody is kind of just throwing on their websites now without actually, you know, having a team dedicated to it or doing the real work and being at home. Casey: Held accountable as well. So you can't do that. Otherwise it Sarah: just doesn't, you know, Casey: you Sarah: can't even, even for me now, this phrase, you know, we want to change the world. I'm like, yeah. Casey: We all do, but show Sarah: me, what are you doing? You know, I think it's going to be in the [00:19:00] next 10 years. I think it's going to be much more people want to actually see actions, not just here, beautiful phrases. Right. And Casey: that's where that deeper Sarah: work is, is Casey: required. Right. You know, and that's one of the differences in how, how I approach this pro. This tool, this process and how a lot of companies are approaching it. And one of the things I mentioned earlier is context, and you can have a vision and mission, right? And it can be a great vision and mission, but there has to be used some context behind it, because if you've ever gone to a company's website or if you've ever worked for another company and they're like, Hey, okay, we've checked the box. Here's our vision. And you look at that vision and, and you think to yourself, That's awesome. I have no idea what that means. So it's missing a lot of context. And so the company, you, even if it's just you working with yourself, are you working with a couple of [00:20:00] people? That context is really important because we have to understand the story behind. What does this mean? Why is this important? How does this look in. Operation. Right. And so that's where the vision, mission and values work really hard together because the vision articulate the future, the mission describes what you're doing to contribute to the achievement of that vision. And the values is here's how we are living this out day to day. So you mentioned, you know, the sustain stainable company. I had a very similar situation with a client where we had these sustainability values, but yet when we're going to make decisions about the business, we weren't prioritizing, like when a team member would prioritize something sustainable, it would get shot down because of cost or, you know, implementation or execution. And that's great. And we have to find a different way to contextualize [00:21:00] what we mean by sustainability. Let's spell it. What does sustainability mean to us and how are we able to deliver on that versus just saying we're going to deliver. Yeah. Sarah: Yeah. So true. You have to first understand it before you can make it your vision or your mission. Right? Because sustainability is one of these terms that we just kind of use left and right. Right. Casey: Yeah. Everybody has their own definition. So, absolutely. And your values is something that you're in your employees or your team members are going to be using, or you should be using every day to make decisions. Does this decision align with my values? If it doesn't do I need to change my values or do I need to do. My decision. Sarah: Yeah. So before you mentioned the, that you're working with people who are not the, you know, how did you call Casey: it integrators? Yeah. Yeah. So they're more like, okay, Sarah: they have the big [00:22:00] passion. Of course they have probably the vision. Casey: And so how you help them with the Sarah: vision and the, and the values, the mission. Do you still work with a business plan or where does it then become. Programmatic and let's roll our sleeves back Casey: to work. Yeah. Yes. So the very first thing is, you know, that vision, mission values and the, we toss some other things in there, like knowing who your target market is and understanding your value proposition. Those are all very important too. And that's all great. And we need to have that. And then kind of where the breakdown is just like, how do we turn this into. Reality, how do we make stuff happen? And so that's where the business plan comes in and the vision is an integral part to that because the vision is like, okay, if this, if 10 years from now, we're looking at, you know, 50% less carbon emissions, I'm making up a vision statement. Now, [00:23:00] 50% less carbon emissions. And we're looking at biodegradable plastics. And we're looking at whatever that, you know, vision is that that looks like. The plan is. What's the first thing, what's the first thing we need to do to make that happen. And so you break that down into, you know, you're not going to go from zero to 10 years from now in a quarter. So we break it down into an annual goal or an annual plan and then a quarterly plan. And, and the hardest part I think is just figuring out what those next small steps are to help you get closer to. That fishing that's where the business plan comes in. Yeah. Sarah: And it sounds like the small steps we call them goals. Right. And sometimes we confuse our goal with our vision. Yeah. It's again, it's not the same. The goals are really this small and probably more pragmatic steps. It's like, here's [00:24:00] what we need to, and oftentimes what we use there as the smart, you know, they have to be measured. Somehow so that we can actually say, yeah, we achieved this Casey: goal Sarah: or not where the vision, well, right now we don't know if we're going to achieve this vision because it's Casey: in the future. Right. Great. And for, and for some business owners, especially if you're a very visionary business owner, That, that is the hard part. I can't see that path. I can see the future, but I can't see how I'm getting there. And that's when it's kind of helpful to partner with somebody who sees the world a little bit differently than you so they can say, all right, so here's where you need to focus next. Yeah. Sarah: Yeah. I think, I can't remember the, the, the book where the. He, I think it's an author who talks about this difference between the visionary and the integrator. Casey: There's a Sarah: [00:25:00] about that, right? Yeah. Casey: Well, since you're on video here is it. Yeah. Sarah: Rocket fuel. Yes. That's Casey: it? Yeah. Can you just have the awesome, yeah. Yes. This is called rocket fuel and it's got, it's a dual author. It's Gino Wickman, and Mark Winters, and they talk a lot about Their theory is there's actually two people at the helm of a business and not just one and some of the traditional models you're seeing, you know, just one person who's the CEO and then all the people underneath. And I think what Gino, Gino, Wickman and Mark Winters discovered is that a lot of the CEO type people are not. Cut out. That's not their, their zone of genius to lead people and manage companies. There's zone of genius is future thinking big innovation. Yeah. Yes, yes. And those people, as we understand, like Albert Einstein and, you know, some of these other geniuses [00:26:00] is they have these great ideas and they're just not very good at executing them. And so they're suggesting. If that's the type of person that you are. There's two people at the helm of the business and one is the the innovators and then the other person is the get things done, person. And then when you pair them together, it's like yin and yang. And you have like this whole person who is then going to catapult this company into success. Yeah. Yeah. I love Sarah: that. And that's why if, if we're alone in our business, it's just always helpful to work with a coach who, who sees you from the outside and who can kind of. Maybe you have the vision, and I'm not saying that the coach is going to have the vision for you, but the coach is going to help you get to that vision or have an even bigger vision for you that maybe Casey: you can't even see. Yes. I was just going to say, you know, for, as a fractional integrator, we work with bigger businesses, [00:27:00] you have teams and if you're a solo person and you're in this kind of visionary, Dilemma of, I have this idea. I'm not sure what to do with it. Next, a coach is the perfect next step to help you break down that vision into here's where you need to focus next kind of kind of a thing. Yeah. Sarah: Yeah. Cause I do feel that some, I sometimes work with clients who have. A lot of great ideas. Right. And then oftentimes, because they're also the door, they start telling us too many different things and then we need to really kind of like focus it back. And then I think you mentioned that as well, focus, you know, like what are the, the Casey: three Sarah: things that you're going to focus on to get to that vision? Because otherwise you spread Casey: yourself too thin. Exactly. You won't get there. Yeah. Yeah. And just to be clear, you know, if you are someone who's working by yourself, just know that as you grow and get [00:28:00] bigger and expand those problems, don't actually change. So I think the term is different level, different devils, so it stays the same. So there's a lot of CEOs of companies that have that same struggle that those of us who are a single solo business. Hap so we're all people. Yeah. Sarah: And on the other hand, so we talked about the coach, but another idea of course, is to get help in the execution. So you work with a, you know, a virtual assistant or you will hire a team member and then they do more of the execution. So you get to have more space to do the big thinking. Yes, Casey: absolutely. Yeah. For someone who is kind of a innovator or a very, I like to call them creative thinkers because that's really who they are. Some type of assistant, whether it's a virtual assistant or an executive assistant can be an amazing. First hire for you because they are [00:29:00] basically an extension of you only organized. So yeah, that's a definite way to take a step towards getting things done and getting them off your plate. Yeah. Sarah: Yeah. I love that. Yeah. So there's this question in my head that I keep thinking, well, can you actually have a business without a vision or a vision statement? You know, Casey: how would that look like? Yeah. And you know what? I can't remember exactly what episode it is, but I have a podcast called female founders, breaking boundaries, and I have an episode on passion. I think it's called passion is not a vision or something like that. And it talks about the difference between passion and vision. And it gives some examples of how you do have, or can have a. Based on passion and not vision. And there's a lot of very successful businesses today who are based on passion and not vision. Not every business's out to change the world, right? Sometimes you're just [00:30:00] capitalizing on an opportunity or you've recognized a gap in the market and you're doing that. And, you know, an example might be. I'm making car parts. I mean, I don't know how many of your listeners make car parts, but you know, it's kind of a straightforward thing. We're going to go to work. We're going to make car parts. We're going to make some money. We're going to pay some employees. Now you could have a vision right. With your business, or you could also just go to work and I'm really passionate about help, you know, making cars last longer. And so that's what we're going to do and that's perfectly fine. And it works. Yeah, it's just the way you structure organized and operate day-to-day is just a little bit different than if you are a vision oriented company. Yeah. Sarah: I'm glad you say that because, because my Mandalah of humane. It doesn't have vision in it. And so I'm like, oh, but I sometimes call my people. I created a new word called vision Casey: near. So it's like a [00:31:00] Sarah: pioneer slash visionary, but there is no vision in the seven PS of humane marketing, but, but the passion, that's where we start and, and, and I think you're right. Some Casey: people, they Sarah: will have this vision on top of things and others, they will just find. Casey: You know, make Sarah: a business out of the passion or find passion in the business that there is what I, I think you can't, or it wouldn't be very sustainable and much fun to have Casey: a business without passion, right? Sarah: Where the vision. Optional and, you know, obviously great have it. Casey: Yeah. I was reading about your Mandalah and, and I love it. And it's, it's similar to a little infographic I created as well. Yours is, has definitely more spokes on it than mine does. And one of the things you might do. If, you know, at some point, vision does become [00:32:00] important is that the little center spoke you have there, that's where I've put vision. So if you do have a vision, that's really where it goes. It's the central hub of everything that you do. So you know, that's one way to think about it. So Sarah: for us, the, the center spot is, is, are. Ah, market from within then everything. Yeah, Casey: it looks that makes a lot of fairs too. I think in both ways, they're very similar because if you think of a vision, it does come from yourself, right. That is your vision. Nobody else has that vision. And that's what makes you the leader of the company is that you were holding that vision and it's, it comes from self. So I love it. I really, really dug for that connection there. That's Sarah: amazing. I want to quickly, before we start to wrap up also mention your marketing book because, you know, Casey: Have kind of this background in [00:33:00] marketing Sarah: and you wrote a book a fresh wave of marketing, an intentional approach to marketing for visionary CEOs. So tell us a little bit about that book and, you know, kind of knowing you now for almost an hour, I can tell that you kind of are part of our people. You think marketing definitely needs to be different, so. Tell us what this fresh wave of Casey: marketing looks like. Yeah. Okay. So before I kind of switched, focuses to becoming the fractional integrator person I was I was a fractional CMO and. One of the things that was happening to me as I was bringing on clients is that our expectations were not aligned. And so I started out this book, started out as a workbook, really for clients. So I would send this workbook to them so they could kind of get a sense of, this is how we're going to start this work. And when I was done with this [00:34:00] workbook, it was like, I don't know, 25,000, 30,000 words or something. Yeah. I'm thinking to myself, I could probably drop this on Amazon. And so that's how the book came about is everything that we've talked about in this episode today about your vision, mission values. And then, you know, there's some other components of what we call our business blueprint. The target audience. There's even some stuff in there about customer journey, which I know you just recently had an episode on customer journey, but it's all these components of marketing that make your marketing stand out and marketing is about relating to the customer and humanizing that relationship, which is, I think we get along so well. So yeah, you can grab that book off of Amazon and it's kind of a down and dirty. Like get your hands dirty and implement kind of things. So by, after reading the book, you should be able to kind of draft your own vision, mission values, [00:35:00] and get a head, start on, figuring out what kind of marketing. Makes sense for you. Wonderful. Sarah: Yeah, it's great. This has been absolutely delightful. Casey: Thank you so Sarah: much for coming onto this show. Do tell us where people can find you. Yeah. I think you have a free download as well to take this Casey: further you integrations of Telus all above. Yeah. Yeah, I am so passionate about getting the mission, vision values, right. That I haven't a lot of different places. So in addition to getting a fresh wave of marketing off of Amazon, I'd love for you to come over and visit the podcast at female founders, breaking boundaries. I'm on all the. Podcast platforms. And if you'd like to get a little background or have in writing more of what we talked about today, how to come out with your, you know, your ideal vision, mission, and values and articulate that you can go to our [00:36:00] website@shi-sweetboutique.com backslash humane, and we have, you know, a little worksheet to kind of guide you as you're thinking through your vision, mission values. I love that. Sarah: Thank you so much. And I actually do want to ask you two more things. If you don't mind what's your vision of the future of business? Like where do you see business change and evolve into over the next 10 years? We're kind of, I feel at this. Kind of fork, you know, I was like, it could even go that way or that way. So Casey: where do you think it's going to go? I'm like how long is this podcast? I can make a whole episode out of this, so I'll try to keep it really precise. For, for a long time now I've felt that there was this gap in the small business market. You have small business owners who are at a disadvantage. A variety of different reasons, which we won't get into on this podcast, but I've often [00:37:00] felt like this is where the future of our economy is, is in small business and making these small businesses successful as compared to these huge corporate conglomerates. And so I think the future of businesses heading towards ways to. Put more focus on small businesses for a variety of reasons for employees and employee benefits. I think small benefits for small businesses are, you know, going to employ. People people are going to be focused more on enjoying their job, enjoying their work. So whether you're an employee of a small business or a small business owner, people are going to be paying attention to the tr treatment and the work-life balance. And so I think that's kind of the future of small businesses is we're going to start trying to remove some of those obstacles and boundaries for business owners so that, you know, we have more options. People can. Not be required to live in huge cities in order to [00:38:00] get paid money to live life. You know, we're going to start spreading out and I'm doing more at different levels. Sarah: Yeah, that, that makes so much sense. Also what you just said about the cities. I truly believe that people aren't going to move away from these big, expensive cities and, and that's only possible of course, if there is employment in the smaller cities and towns. Yes. Unless we all do, you know, work from home, but. That might be a future addition or who knows. Maybe it will kind of be part working from home and partly going into the small business, but wouldn't that be wonderful. They would also be less Casey: traffic, less cars because yeah, we don't need to all be in the big city anymore. Right. And as devastating as this pandemic. Then I think one of the outcomes that we might, you know, be thankful for is that we've, we've always had this opportunity [00:39:00] existed with our technology today and the pandemic sort of forced a lot of us to consider different ways of looking at how we. Are employed or looking at how we run our businesses and now the hard part's over, we've figured that out. And so I think now there'll be more chance or it's going to be easier for us to look at it differently now that we've kind of gotten over the hump of figuring out how to make that work and how to use that technology. Yeah, totally Sarah: agree. Last question. What are you grateful for today or this Casey: week? You know, what I am grateful for? I am grateful for technology. So one of the things I talk about on my podcast is how women in many cases, shoulder, so much more mental load, that some of the things that. Easily to other people. We have to work a lot harder for like owning our own business because [00:40:00] I'm a mom and I am grateful for technology and the opportunity to run a small business so that I have the chance to take my boys to boy Scouts after school and to be able to take them to the dentist on Thursday and see. I'm still able to be a mom and run my business at the same time. I like that. Sarah: Yeah. Wonderful. Thank you so much for coming onto the show. It's been a pleasure to talk to you. Casey: Thank you, Sarah.
Today's episode focuses on a hot topic of discussion in the real estate investing world - partnerships. Business partnerships are notorious for being massive accelerants to success - or a quick path to failure. Many of you looking to get into the business may be thinking about teaming up with a friend, family member, or colleague who is also wanting to start investing in real estate. However, as Scott and Cade discuss, there are several things to consider and reflect on before entering a partnership that can make or break your success. Primarily focusing on lessons learned from Rocket Fuel by Gino Wickman and Mark Winters, Scott and Cade summarize the book's highlights and reflect on their own partnership in their investment company, Early Bird Investments. Regardless if you are looking for a business partner to accelerate your growth or not, Rocket Fuel is an essential book to add to your reading list.

Homebrewer, Mark Winters lets Jim and Zack (and Jackie) sample a few of his delicious beers. Mark's brewery name is Urbrau Uttingtron, which is an homage to his home area of Germany and the old style of beer that he brews. He discusses how he started brewing, historic beer tidbits, and explains all about the beer that they are drinking. His libations tend to err on the side of traditional styles and not the uber-popular current trend of hazy IPAs. Grab yourself a cold one and enjoy! Check out what beers of his are on tap at Urbrau Uttingtron Taplist.

On May 11, 2018, on Episode 38 Mark C. Winters the author of “Rocket Fuel ” was a guest on the show and he introduced the Scaling Up Nation to Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) in a blitz 100 level introductory course. Today I am pleased to have Mark C. Winters back on the podcast to walk us through his 200 level EOS course, which is all about communication. If you are a new listener, or never had the chance to listen to Episode 38, please check it out today. It will immediately change your business, for the better. In today's episode, Mark C. Winters teaches us how the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) can specifically help businesses of 10-250 people climb a growth path to success, start their leadership teams with clear goals in mind, and confidently lay out which employee is going to do what to accomplish the company goals. Additionally, Mark lays out the framework on how Visionaries (those who come up with the ideas) Integrators (those who make visions happen) can communicate better to take their companies to the next level. When Visionaries and Integrators have a great partnership, there is nothing they cannot do. Bottom line: Mark C. Winters gave my company the tools, confidence, and energy we needed to accomplish more than I could have ever envisioned before we connected.

Welcome back to the Business Journey podcast! I'm SO excited to be sharing today's episode with you because I truly believe in the power of reading. Honestly, I think every small business owner should make time to read because it's just such a powerful experience and way to consume content that can change your life. Today, I'm excited to be sharing FIVE books that have been transformational for my business with you. Remember, you don't have to actually read the book to consume the knowledge - try an audio book if you can't find time to sit and read. There's so many options to get the content - so let's dive right in! Making Time to ReadLook, I get it. We're all SUPER busy people - running businesses, raising kids, and having a life. But I just want you to remember that if you read 20 minutes a day, you can finish at least one book a month. I used to believe that if I couldn't finish a chapter, it wasn't worth reading in that sitting. But now, I've learned that's not the case. Try to carve out a little time for YOU. Whether you read or listen to an audiobook, give yourself that time to relax and enjoy! Now, onto the books! Profit First by Mike Michalowicz"Profit First" was seriously transformational for my finances. This book helped me understand that the idea of having a profitable business was possible. This book teaches you how to allocate your expenses, profit, and what you actually pay yourself so that you can make money! Combined with the http://www.ynab.com (You Need a Budget (YNAB)) app and website, this book seriously changed how I look at my money! Traction by Gino Wickman"Traction" is alllll about how you structure and run your business, a concept Wickman calls "EOS". The whole book walks you through how to structure your team - and even if you don't have a team, you can learn a lot about how to manage your business. Wickman helps you plan longterm for your business, looking ahead 3, 5, and 10 years in advance so you can figure out where you want your business to go. This book truly helped me understand the WHY of my business. Rocket Fuel by Gino Wickman and Mark WintersI wasn't lying when I said I loved Gino Wickman. Wickman partnered with Mark Winters to write this one. It's a bit of a spinoff from "Traction", but it really focuses on the relationship between a visionary/CEO and their team, especially an integrator. This relationship is super powerful and "Rocket Fuel" helped me understand how to lean into and use that to my advantage to grow. If you're even considering a team or are in the beginning stages of starting one, read this book! The One Hour Content Plan by Meera KothandI have to admit that this book was a SUPER fast read but it was incredibly helpful. Kothand helps you map out a year of content, no matte what kind of business you're in. Because of this book, I had hundreds of ideas for content pieces. She honestly makes it so simple by asking questions that get you thinking about what your audience wants, and you'll wind up writing out a huge brain dump. Trust me! It's worth the read! The Miracle Morning by Hal ElrodHonestly, "The Miracle Morning" was great for my personal life more than anything but it did impact my business, too! This book really helps you outline a morning routine - one that's solid and focused. Whether you're a morning person or not, Elrod reminds you that giving yourself a sold routine will help you be the best version of you. And there you have it: 5 books that have transformed my business! I hope that you go grab a copy and dive in. Truly, I believe the chance to read through some of these amazing ideas will help you in your own business. I know it sparked a LOT of thoughts and changes for me!

Mark Winters stops by to talk about illustrating a world in revolt and details you might have missed in the art of Aether Revolt.
Does it take more than a founder's vision to move a growing organization forward? As a business expands, more people are added, and there are commitments abound, the entrepreneurial founder or “Visionary,” as labeled by the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS), typically needs a complimentary leader, or “Integrator,” to implement regimen and consistency for the company to achieve its next level of success. This is not to say that an entrepreneurial founder cannot fill both of these roles, but if most are honest, the role of the integrator, one which thrives on process and procedure, is not where the founder's passion nor strengths lie. As in most good relationships, opposites typically attract, so is true in business. Join us on this week's episode of The Second Stage with our guest and Certified EOS Implementer, Mark Winters, to learn more on identifying the need as well as when it makes sense for a founder to add these complementary skill-sets to his leadership roster.
