Are you spending your time chasing new leads while overlooking some of the strongest referral opportunities sitting right under your nose?In this episode of Life at Ten Tenths, Matt and Garrett explore one of the most underutilized sources of referral business: past clients who no longer live in your market.This conversation reframes referrals not as something you have to hunt down, but as something that naturally grows out of staying connected, being thoughtful, and playing the long game with relationships.Rather than adding more to your plate, this episode focuses on doing a few simple things well—checking in, staying present, and positioning yourself as a connector people trust, no matter where they live.We get into:Why clients who move away often become your best referral sourcesHow staying connected expands your reach beyond your local marketThe difference between chasing transactions and building relationship equityWhy being a connector creates more opportunity than constant prospectingHow small, consistent touchpoints lead to long-term resultsThis episode is for agents who want to grow their business without more hustle—by leaning into relationships they already have and trusting the long-term impact of staying genuinely connected.

Brian and Mark kick off Season 6 by addressing the uncomfortable reality of stalled cash flow and stalled motivation, offering a practical blueprint for converting that discomfort into intentional action. The message is clear: momentum doesn't come from waiting for conditions to change - it comes from choosing to move first.Featured Quote: "This is not a negative situation.

What if success isn't about scaling faster, shipping more, or chasing perfection — but about building something so honest it can last for generations?In this episode, I sit down with Gerry Khouri, Founder & Managing Director of Bufori, one of the world's longest-running handcrafted automobile companies. For nearly 40 years, Gerry has gone against almost every rule of modern business — choosing craftsmanship over scale, long-term thinking over short-term returns, and integrity over imitation.We explore what Gerry had to unlearn to stay in the game for decades: the myth of perfection, the pressure of shareholder expectations, and the idea that success must look a certain way. This conversation is a masterclass in leadership, product thinking, and building businesses that endure.Key TakeawaysPerfection is a fantasy — luxury is honesty. Products that last are built on integrity, not impossible standards.Success starts with finishing, not selling. The real win is building something real — everything else is a bonus.Craftsmanship scales through capability, not volume. Deep skills create optionality and diversification.The real competition isn't the market — it's yourself. Long-term builders focus on self-mastery, not rivals.Great businesses are built by people who challenge you, not agree with you.Additional InsightsGerry built his first car in a garage behind his house — bigger than the house itself — with no external funding.Bufori operates debt-free after nearly 40 years, an extreme outlier in modern manufacturing.The company makes more parts in-house than most car manufacturers, turning necessity into innovation.What started as survival-driven resourcefulness became multiple profit centers through engineering services.Leadership longevity comes from unlearning ego, listening deeply, and leading by example.Episode Highlights00:00 – Episode RecapGerry Khouri reflects on a pivotal realization: perfection doesn't build lasting products — honesty, craftsmanship, and long-term thinking do. This mindset reshaped how he built cars, teams, and a business designed to outlive him.02:15 – Guest Introduction: Gerry KhouriBarry introduces Gerry Khouri, founder of Bufori, a handcrafted automobile company that has spent nearly four decades defying the rules of modern manufacturing.04:14 – Building the First Car Against All OddsGerry shares how a backyard hobby, relentless passion, and going against everyone's advice led him to build his first car from nothing.07:10 – Redefining What Success Really MeansSuccess wasn't about money or validation — it was about starting something and finishing it, no matter the odds.11:54 – Leading Without ResourcesWith no books, no mentors, and no capital, Gerry explains how necessity forced invention and deep mastery of craft.19:50 – Unlearning Perfectionism in a Luxury BusinessWhy perfection is an illusion, and how focusing on luxury, durability, and intention keeps products moving forward.23:12 – What Craftsmanship Actually Looks LikeGerry breaks down what it means to truly “make” a product — from designing for repairability to building for generations.27:29 – Competing With Yourself, Not the MarketThe most dangerous competitor isn't another company — it's complacency and losing the hunger to improve.31:10 – Unlearning Shareholder-First ThinkingWhy prioritizing...

There aren't enough homes. Homes are too expensive. And mortgage rates are too high.In Episode 103 of One for the Money, I break down how the U.S. housing crisis was created, why it persists, and what realistic solutions could actually improve affordability.This episode goes beyond headlines and politics to diagnose the root causes of the crisis—using plain economics, real-world examples, and historical context. We also share practical guidance for anyone considering buying a home in today's challenging market.

Housing prices are soaring, starter homes are disappearing, and young buyers feel like they're entering a game that's already been won. In this episode of the Rent Perfect Podcast, David Pickron and Scot Aubrey break down why today's housing market feels less like opportunity—and more like a fully loaded Monopoly board.From $120,000 starter homes to $500,000 “entry-level” houses, the guys reflect on how real estate investing used to work, how institutional investors changed the game after 2008, and why Wall Street now owns thousands of single-family homes across the country. They also react to a new White House housing initiative aimed at limiting institutional buyers and giving individual homeowners and small investors a fairer shot.Is this the beginning of real change—or just another well-intentioned policy with unintended consequences? What does it mean for landlords, parents trying to help their kids buy their first home, and investors planning for retirement?This candid conversation cuts through the noise to explore:Why housing affordability feels out of reachHow government policy reshaped the marketThe real impact of institutional investorsWhether the American Dream is still attainableIf you're a landlord, investor, or future homeowner trying to understand where the market is headed, this episode is for you.For landlords. By landlords. This is the Rent Perfect Podcast.

In this episode, Yuri (aka "The Fun CPA") explains why now is the perfect time to build the kind of firm where people genuinely want to work. He's spent four years building a following on LinkedIn by saying the things that managers and senior accountants at big firms are thinking but can't say out loud. His mission is to change the perception of accounting by showing what's possible when you prioritize people, mentorship, and actually enjoying the work you do.The good news is that students aren't avoiding accounting because they don't want meaningful work. The firms that figure out how to create those better options internally will win the talent game for the next decade.The conversation covers:Why visibility into firm life (thanks to Reddit and Fishbowl) is actually helping the profession by forcing transparency and accountabilityHow forward-thinking firms are building cultures where people genuinely want to stay, creating competitive advantage in a tight talent marketThe opportunity for firms that invest in mentorship and long-term thinking, while others chase short-term efficiency metricsWhy the current moment is perfect for CPAs who want to build firms differently (or work at firms that prioritize culture over billable hours)How Yuri's Mentors Count community is filling the mentorship gap for accountants in their first five yearsThe rise of networking events that people actually enjoy attending (and why that matters for building genuine professional relationships)BOOK RECOMMENDATION:Never Split the Difference: Negotiating As If Your Life Depended On It―Unlock Your Persuasion Potential in Professional and Personal Life: Voss, Chris, Raz, Tahl TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 - Introduction of Yuri Capilovich and his mission in accounting 03:10 - Yuri's background and career path into accounting and technology 07:30 - The real problems holding accounting firms back 12:45 - AI as an enabler, not a replacement 18:30 - Using technology to improve client experience and firm margins 23:40 - The mindset shift firm owners must make to scale 29:10 - What forward-thinking firms are doing differently right now 34:50 - Final thoughts on the future of the professionLink to full listing: https://poegroupadvisors.com/practice/sc2038/ Firm Highlights:- Young, energetic owner committed to staying 10+ years to run and grow the firm.- Selling 70–100% equity, with plans to offer key employees an ownership stake.- 3+ CPAs on staff and over 20 employees.- High-net-worth clients with strong loyalty and consistent referrals.- 78% of services tied to business clients.

What Happens When Strong Consumers, Limited Supply, and Leasing Demand Collide?Retail real estate is not just stable — it is entering a meaningfully better phase of the cycle.Drawing on recent conversations with owners, brokers, tenants, architects, engineers, and contractors, Chris Ressa challenges the prevailing narrative that 2026 will simply mirror a solid 2025. Instead, he outlines why the year ahead could outperform expectations across leasing, rents, and long-term fundamentals.At the center of his thesis is sustained leasing velocity. Across categories and markets, tenant demand continues to outpace available supply, even as headlines focus on isolated retailer struggles. Chris explains why those failures do not define the health of retail — and why today's winners are expanding with conviction.He also breaks down why early-2025 disruptions, including an unusually high number of store closures and tariff uncertainty, are unlikely to repeat in 2026. With bankruptcies moderating, new construction still muted, and many signed tenants yet to open, available retail space is tightening further.Layer in a U.S. consumer expected to gain discretionary spending power, and the result is a collision of forces that may finally unlock meaningful rent growth. Chris argues this is the early innings of a retail pricing cycle — and 2026 could be the year it clearly shows up.What You'll HearWhy 2026 could outperform already-strong 2025 resultsHow leasing velocity is signaling a tighter retail marketThe impact of fewer bankruptcies on available retail spaceWhy muted new construction matters more than headlines suggestHow rising consumer discretionary income supports rent growthWhat the next retail pricing cycle may look like for landlords and investorsChapters00:12 – Welcome to 2026Chris sets the stage with early sentiment from across the retail real estate industry.01:58 – Leasing Velocity Tells the Real StoryDemand for retail space continues to outpace supply across most categories.03:28 – Winners, Losers, and Retail RealityWhy retailer failures don't equal a weak retail sector.05:32 – Bankruptcies, Tariffs, and a Reset MarketHow 2025 disruptions slowed leasing—and why 2026 looks different.07:26 – The Consumer Comes Back Into FocusRising discretionary income and its impact on physical retail demand.08:18 – Rent Growth vs. Landlord CapExHow economics are shifting tenant and landlord cost burdens.09:03 – The Early Innings of a Pricing CycleWhy multiple forces are colliding to push rents higher.10:55 – What's Next for Retail Retold

There's a lot of marketing effectiveness research out there. Binet and Field. Byron Sharp. Jenni Romaniuk. The Ehrenberg-Bass Institute. Karen Nelson-Field. Peter Field. System1. The Effies and the IPA databank. If you're trying to absorb all of this while doing your actual job, it's overwhelming.So we're making it simple: Eight fundamentals. These aren't tactics or channels. They're the underlying truths that emerge when you look at decades of research across thousands of brands, dozens of categories, and 50+ countries.In this episode, V and Marc break down:Strong Force vs. Weak Force - Why only 5% of buyers are ready to purchase right now, and why you need to build memory with the other 95%Growth Comes From Reach, Not Loyalty - Why big brands aren't more loved, they're just more boughtEasy to Mind, Easy to Find - Mental and physical availability: being thought of and being findableBothism: Balance Short & Long - Why you need both brand building (60%) and sales activation (40%)Creativity & Emotion Multiply Effectiveness - Why emotional campaigns are 11x more effective than rational onesFame & Consistency Build Memory - Why you should stop rebranding and commit to distinctive assets for decadesMaking Promises & Building Trust - Why your entire organization needs to deliver on what marketing promisesInvestment Drives Return - Why share of voice predicts share of marketThe pattern across all eight?
