Hello, and welcome to Beauty and the Biz where we talk about the business and marketing side of plastic surgery, and transforming patients and yourself. I'm your host, Catherine Maley, author of Your Aesthetic Practice – What your patients are saying, as well as consultant to plastic surgeons, to get them more patients and more profits. Now, today's episode is called "Transforming Patients and Yourself — with Nicholas K. Howland, MD". When you've spent years training to become a surgeon, your fortitude and character were tested big time. But that's just the beginning. Then you had to have enough left over to go into practice and grow a sustainable business that takes good care of you and your family. That is no easy feat. This week's Beauty and the Biz Podcast guest is Dr. Nicholas Howland, a young board-certified plastic and reconstructive surgeon practicing in Draper, UT for the past 5 years. Dr. Howland looks at plastic surgery not as vanity, but as transformation and self-empowerment for his cosmetic patients and by extension, he learned about "transforming patients and yourself". He's walking his talk since Dr. Howland also went through his own transformation this past year by divorcing, being a single Dad, losing 60 pounds and working on his mental game to become his most authentic self. We also talked about: Dr. Howland growing up in Salt Lake City as a Mormon and the values he gleaned, even though he has since left the church; How he entered the crowded Utah marketplace and found a unique hybrid practice situation to join that works with his personality; and How he's an independent contractor with freedom to build his own brand, while also growing equity for his future and not having to worry about the day-to-day HR and office issues. He really does have a nice set up! Visit Dr. Howland's Website P.S. Can you please take a minute to review Beauty and the Biz? I would appreciate it.

Want to learn digital marketing? Look no further than the Successful Life Podcast. Hosted by Corey Berrier, this podcast features interviews with top experts in SEO, PPC, and other digital marketing strategies. Welcome to the Successful Life Podcast. I am your host, Corey Berrier, and here with my man, Jeff Bowab. What's up, Jeff? Corey, man, it's nice to see you again. Nice to be on the show. Yes, sir. It's been a. We've been trying to get this thing going for a couple of months now. I got to meet; I just want to tell a quick story. I got to meet you, Jeff, at the revolt event, and, For I'm not going to call out how old you are. You're probably in your late forties, but you moved quicker than any dude on that. I will say I enjoyed it, I'm glad we were on the same team for football, and I wish I were the age you called out. I'm a little bit older, so you know, you pay the price the next couple of days. The hamstrings were screaming the next couple of days. Yeah, without a doubt. Jeff, tell everybody a little; I know you're the vice president of Sales for Ryno Strategic Solutions. If you want just to give a little bit of a high-level overview of who you are and what you do and a little bit about Rhino, that'd be great. For sure. Thanks. So we are a digital marketing company for the trades. We aim to be the most reputable digital marketing company in the trades to all English-speaking Lang. Company or countries. So been in the trades for about 15 years. Our specialty started out as HVAC, plumbing, and electrical. I know some verticals near and dear to your heart as well. In the last year or so, we recently got into the roofing space, which is where we met again. We do some other things as well. Garage doors, stuff like that. But that's been our niche over the last 15 years. We also have, as we were talking about before, a podcast the point is probably currently the number one podcast in the home services space. Cory, not to plug another podcast on your podcast cause I love yours as well. I'll be honest; Jeff probably has two shows a month. I talk about something that you guys are doing because I love listening to the people you bring on because I get to learn something from everybody. And I'll just tell you, as of recent Ryan. This guy was on, and he may have been on the last time or show before last; as soon as I heard him talking and understanding what the problem is that our friend Dan Antonelli, he's a year out, I thought I needed to connect with this guy because I need this guy in my back pocket. So I. And because of your guy's podcast, I connected with this gentleman, and now we have a strategic partnership. That's because of you guys. I would've never, and it would've never happened if I hadn't been for you guys. I love Ryan. I got to meet him at we did an event in Nashville together. First time I met him in person, and he's so intentional. His thought process is so systematic. And then his designs are unique. When he did, I'm sure he showed you some stuff. When he sent us his playbook on, how he went to market, what his thought process was, and then ultimately, how some of the design looked. I like him, and his core values align with ryno's core values. So I was glad I could make the introduction for you guys. Yeah, for sure. He's super, and his brother's super too. I got a chance to chat with him for a little while, and they're just good people. And I think they've got something. Anyhow. I guess that was just a quick note to add to that, which I enjoy. I do enjoy the show. So you guys have got some exciting things coming up. I know. I know you've got some exciting things coming up in November, right? Are you referring to my vacation or the first show that we go to? Maybe both. Yeah, I'm going to. I will be taking a long-needed vacation here in a coup next Saturday. But after I get back, we've got some things going on. One is both roofs related this year. We're returning for our second year as a VIP sponsor at Roof Con in Orlando, roofing.com. November 6th through the. We'll be in Orlando with our friends from Revolt and Roof Con. Super excited about that. And if anyone's listening and has never been to that event, I can tell you it's a banger. Then we'll go to the first week of December to the Roofing Process Conference with Dimitri Lapinski. He's putting that on out in Las Vegas. And that is December 1st and second. I believe it's at the MGM. Don't quote me. But we'll also be partying on the third because that's my birthday, and someone else's for rhino's birthday. So we're probably going to stay a day over, hang out in Vegas, and have a good time. That's going to be awesome. Need, that's going to be remarkable. Is Dimitri, do I know Dimitri? I think I know. He's pretty; he's an influencer on Facebook for sure. I'm sure you've seen his stuff with Dmitri Lapinski. You could look him up. He does many great things for the industry, so we're excited to do Roof con and that. Then we'll come back around in early next year. Rhino in. It puts on, I believe, the most reputable H V A C plumbing electrical event in the industry. We've just recently announced, I know you've seen Nelly will be performing at the event. We have not announced our main headliner yet, but last year we had Mike Tyson, the Great Mike Tyson, and Larry Fitzgerald from the Cardinals. Going to be a first-time Hall of Fame, first-ballot hall of Famer. The year before that, we had Gary Vaynerchuck and Terry Nicolson. So this year it's going to be amazing. 50. Of the country's top plumbing, electrical, and HVAC contractors. It's essentially like a day-and-a-half think tank. Everything that's going on in the industry, how you can get better, and how you can scale your business will have some great speakers. Terry Nicholson from practice S10 will be there. Dave Geiger from Horizon will be there. I think Ken Goodrich will be back from the ghetto. He'll be there, and I believe Ken Haynes from the Wrench Group will be back. He was at our first one as well. So man, really fantastic lineup. Super man. That sounds awesome. It's so funny. I was just talking to John Miraca yesterday. We were just talking about him coming to the event this year, and he was just telling me how much he enjoyed it last year. So on and so forth. I didn't think about that when we were talking earlier. It's invite-only, correct? It's you have to purchase a ticket. So we make it very exclusive. The tickets are expensive, but I can tell you the return on investment that people have walked away from relationships to the strategies that they've learned. I don't want to, you. Give it away. But Ken Goodrich gave some excellent tips last year on how to negotiate with suppliers and things like that. It has changed the game, I believe. There are a lot of significant events. I'm probably a little biased, but I think this is the best one out there. It's almost like magic. It's tough to explain what happens in those groups. It's tough to explain. The conversations develop once you get in that room, and it's hard. It's hard even to imagine because I think a lot of those conversations start, from a place, because most people are there because they want to help one another. I would be willing to bet everybody's there to help one another. So when you have that many people with a servant at heart in one place, it's incredible what can happen. Agreed. I think Ryno tries to be a servant leader in the market. We're a for-profit business like everybody. One of our core values is genuinely caring and giving back we want to be able to do those things for people. So I think just edifying the industry has been our goal. And I think our thought process is, to your point, if you're a servant leader, Zig Ziegler said, If you help enough people get what they want, you will automatically get what you want. So I think Rhino believes the same. We want to give back. We want to serve the industry, and we know because of that, people will be drawn to what we do. A hundred percent. That is an excellent lead-in for my next question, which I wanted to ask you. I hear Chris talk about this a lot. And you and I have talked about it. You guys do one day a month, and I can't remember what day it is or how the structure is, but can you just talk about the service that you do that one day a month? I think it's imperative to highlight that. Because most comp, I think most, I don't know if most companies do that. I guess they probably do not I haven't run across too many that consistently provide. Service like you're about to tell us about. So I'd love to hear about that. Yeah, and I know we talked about this kind of off, off the show, and we're excited about we do service days. It used to be one day a month, but rhino's gotten so big we had to split it up into two days because most non-profits we volunteer at can't handle the number of people we have. So what it is, again, one of our core values is, giving back. To be a ryno, you must be on board with us to give back to the community. I was just out in Phoenix last week and participated in a service day there, and we worked at a wildlife refuge for animals and most birds, but they do have some other things. So we got to see some bald eagles, some condos, So they're doing a cool thing and so our team probably of about, 30 or 40 people on this day. We gave back, cleaned up, cleaned cages, cleaned, trimmed things, and picked up trash just to support this organization. Because Ryno wants, we do believe in serving our local community. And then, for those of us that are remote, like me, I live in Virginia. We go out and serve our local communities. So, I've got a church that I like to volunteer at. So that's what I do. A couple of other people work at Parks and things like that. So it's a huge part of what we do at Rhino. And we also like to align ourselves with potential clients who believe in giving back. Like one of my favorite clients that we work with, they give back at any hour. So we like to align ourselves and walk the. Sure it makes sense. It breeds a pretty great company culture when you do things like that. Yeah. One the items, if someone has seen our website and, we try to send out our recruiting videos that touch on all of these things, the culture at Rhino, the giving back, how we treat our teammates and care for them, we are a big believer in that because of you. Of course, we go to work for a paycheck, but people want to be part of something bigger than just that. Most people, especially younger people, are not necessarily motivated by money. It's. Sense of accomplishment, culture, and working for a great team. The team cares about their work; their work is essential. And I think that Rhino checks all of those boxes from the giving back and the employer standpoint. So if people are looking for a great company, I feel Ryno is an excellent place to be a part of. It certainly sounds that way. I think that you mentioned something, and then I just drew a complete blank. That's all right. It'll come back to me. Oh, you mentioned that people want more than money. That this is precisely what I just talked about at Connect for PHCC. You're right. You're a hundred percent right, and I wonder. Chris is about my age, so I wonder if he understands this because I get it. I understand I'm an old soul, but I also appreciate the younger generation cause I'm right there in the middle. And he's, I think he's the, I think he's the same age as I am. And so I guess that makes it really, I think it makes it a lot easier to swallow both cols, Generations, The old, like the boomer generation, so to speak, and then the Gen Zs and the millennials. But I think a lot of folks in the trades don't think, I know it's really hard to get their head wrapped around bringing these younger people in and doing things a bit differently than how they've been doing them. Yeah, I agree. It's funny, even though I'm on the sales side, we'll talk to a lot of sales folks that want to come on board to Ryno, and their number one driver is also not money, which is, crazy to me growing up in kind of the Glen Gary, Glen Ross, type of generation boiler room, things like that where you want to be able to serve people. One of the great things about what we do at Rhino is, yes, people want to. By, by our marketing services, but we're serving them. We talk a lot in our meetings. Hey, if it's Corey's, H V A C, Corey's gotta pay his people, and Corey's gotta put food on his table. So we're very mindful of that. We're here to serve those folks. We want to go above and beyond for them because we know whatever investment they make with us, it's a lot for them. Yeah, it is crucial. Like money is essential. Don't get me wrong. We all need to pay our bills, and people wanna make money. But I do think people. To be a part of a team and the greater good of something. So that's, again it's a cool thing about what we do, and I think it resonates with many of our customers. I'm sure it does. I'm sure it does. It is as it should be, and I think it's a good representation of how companies should look at things because I do believe that if you have a good company culture If you have core values, you hire and fire by your core values. I think that you got a good org. You've probably got an excellent organization. . Yeah, I agree. And then plus Rhino throws the best Christmas party anyone's ever seen. So if anyone ever filed us on social media last year, we had Flow Rider at our Christmas party the year before we had Julio rest in peace and tone lo, and even if you remember, way back, we had a young mc who sang Bust to move. So yes. We do some incredible things. We are big believers. Work hard, but we're going to reward our team and play hard. Our Christmas parties are pretty legendary. We have a lot of clients that want to come, and it's just to reward the Rhino team. That is super. So, Corey, you can't go. No offense. I can't come. Dang, it. So I was waiting for you to say, but Corey, you could come. That is fantastic. So Jeff, let me see here. Let me just look at my notes here. I was going to ask you about a couple of other things. I know people want to know about shifting a little bit over to more of the business. You know this, Every marketing company says they can do a million different things. They all say they can do this, that another, and they can do it better than everybody else. So why? Why would somebody? What makes you all different? Yeah, I think that's a great question because I believe our contractors get asked the same thing by homeowners, right? Hey, somebody came out and looked at my HVAC system. How are you guys different? And I don't, I think, I don't know if that's the correct question. It understands what the customer needs because we all have strategies like, I'm a huge sports guy, and look at quarterbacks, right? Some throw the ball better than others, but they have different mechanics. Some are running quarterbacks; some are throwing quarterbacks. Some move around the pocket, and some don't. There are always other ways you can do things, but the most important thing, as a marketing company, is understanding what the client wants and their cadence. The company is honest, the marketing company, being honest and saying, yes, we're excellent at that. I often think the same way in the industry and with contractors. They will tell people what they want to hear to acquire their business. Knowing that they don't, that they're not excellent in that. And I can tell you; there are a lot of times that I'll tell customers like, We would love to serve you as a client, but we're not excellent in what you're asking us to do. Or, That's not what we do. I'd be glad to refer you over to somebody else of the people that we work with. But if I'm being frank with you, That's not what we do. So I think one thing Rhino is excellent at, and I'm constantly talking to our team about, is another core value, transparency. Be transparent. Tell them if someone asks you to do something that doesn't align with what we do. And. 99 times out of a hundred, they'll appreciate that. They're going to say, Thank you for being so honest. Other companies have just tried to grab my money and wanted to sign me up as perfect examples. Many customers will come to us and say, I'm unhappy with what's going on currently with my other marketing company; we'll take a look and say, Hey, look that. We can't work on it, or it will not convert correctly. It's not going to deliver the highest ROI now, but I'll say other companies will take it because they know there's a lot of money in the marketing, not necessarily in the website. So we'll tell people, Hey, if you want to work with Ryno, here's the solution, and it's probably going to include a new website. You don't have to do that. Everyone else will take your money and take your business without doing. And then what's going to happen is you'll be back in the same boat you were in right now, unhappy with your results. And then you'll come back to Rhino a year later and go, I should have listened to you guys because now it costs me double because I had to go through another lousy scenario. So I think that's what makes us different. A couple of other things. We've been in the space for 15 years, and all we do is trades like plumbing, electrical, HVAC, and roofing garage doors. That's all we do. If you said to me, Hey, we also own a restaurant in our local town. We couldn't help you. We don't know the restaurant game; it's slightly different. We're going to be fully transparent with them. We're also not going to push them to sell them anything. We'll educate them on what's going on with their marketing, and they could leave that meeting with us and be much more educated. It probably improved some things without signing up for Rhino. Back to the enlightenment. We want to edify and educate the industry, and hopefully, people will say, I align with that. That's how we treat our customers. We would like to do business with you. Absolutely. Interestingly, you say it. I and I didn't, I didn't know that's exactly how you did it, to be honest with you. But that's precisely how I work with people. I in, in, I, I used something similar to what you guys do, not with the team you do, but. So I listen to people's calls, right? That's how I understand what the problems are. I listen to CSRs, and I listen to the technicians, and I figure out where the problems are, and there are always problems with every single company out there. I don't care who you are; there's always a problem, and I'm not saying that it's a big problem that you need to fix, but there are always problems, and there are always things you can improve on. And so that gives me a perfect look. Exactly what's happening, and then I can give you the exact solution to fix that problem instead of just giving you a blanket solution, as many people do. I just don't; I don't believe in that anyway, so I provide that report after I do all the calls and do all my analysis, then I provide that report. And then, if the customer wants to move forward, then great if then we could talk about that. But if they don't, you've got a pretty good amount of information to go off of. . Yeah, agreed. A hundred percent. We're believers of the old sales; school was transactional. Hey, would you like to buy this widget? How much does it cost? It cost $5. Would you like to buy it? Yes or no? Now we've moved into because we have so many resources at our hands to be consultants. Tell me your pain points because, no offense, Mr. HVAC contractor, there are 50 people. Within 10 miles of you, that also do HVAC. So, people aren't buying your box; they're buying your solution to their problem. So we want to be consultants to people that call in and give them some good advice, whether they go with Rhino or not. We want to be suitable to the industry and treat the industry well. Eventually, all, we always say, all roads lead back to Ryno. Eventually, they're going to come back to us regardless. If we've done an excellent job for them if we've cheated them correctly, and if we've stood by our values of educating the customer versus trying to sell them to do something. The excellent news is that RYNO is in a position. We don't need to sell anybody anything. We're, we do well. We've earned our reputation in the industry. So we try to educate folks; even if you want to call us up and ask us some questions and you have no intention of coming over to Rhino, we'll still help you. I love that. I think it's crucial too. That resource. I think it's important, and I agree with you. You know this because I talked briefly with you the other day. And just like I mentioned with Ryan, it makes sense for me to be aligned with people who can do the things that I can't do because that helps everybody around me and makes me look good. And it helps my customer. Yeah. It also makes me the. Is that why you wanted to be on my football team? Because you couldn't catch the ball. That's right. . I'm just playing with you, man. I really can't see the ball. I really could not grab the ball. I'm really; you're an excellent pass rusher. You're an excellent pass rusher and a blocker. I could block a little bit. There you go. Yeah. That was so much fun. Poor Josh's leg was destroyed. We'll never forget that weekend. We will never forget that week. It's so impactful. I believe they just finished up the other one, right? They did. They do 3, 4, 5 of them a year. I think I've been to like five of 'em now. So always love going and just the brotherhood. That's how we met. And it's almost like your college roommate or something. You just stay in touch. Yeah, it's probably the, it's, it is by far the most impactful event that I have been to for sure. Yeah. Yeah. I enjoyed it, and to anybody, and I, you don't even have to be a roofer to go and get something out of this event. I think if you're any trades for that wrong era, hell, if you're a man and you want to go into a group where you can learn from other men in your industry, this is that's where I would recommend people go. Yeah. Personal development was just as significant as business development. Yep. So anyone listening, Revolt is a great group. And there are other folks outside of HVAC or roofing contractors who are on in the group. For sure. So you all alright, so you said that Roofing's reasonably new to RYNO, and I know that, so you've been dabbling in that space for about a year now, right? Yeah, we've been a little over a year now. Chris and I went to, I think, our first introduction; we went to I e a couple of years ago, which was in Vegas, to see just check out the landscape. We sat in it on some marketing breakout groups there and thought, Wow. They are behind when it comes to digital marketing. So we thought it was an excellent place to be able to serveBleed as we do in HVAC, plumbing, and electrical. We started making some key meetings with some industry leaders, like Hunter at Revolt and John died, the American contractor. I bled over to Roof Con last year. We got to meet some incredible people. Aaron Christie with Indy Roof, Paul Reed, and Eric Opim with, Roofers in Recovery. A great group. So it's just been amazing how it's steamrolled; it's been like an avalanche picking up. And we are super excited, here in Wow, three weeks to be back in Orlando to do that. We've. Chris will be on the marketing panel there. Mike Venidis he's our chief Experience officer at Ryno. He will be doing a breakout, and then this year, I'll be doing a keynote on the main stage. So we got three people from Rhino talking about some great stuff. So we're super excited. That's incredible. I'm, yeah, I'm excited. I'm excited for you. It will be a huge event, and I believe they've sold out all the sponsorship. I'm pretty sure that sold; I saw that not long ago. I think. Are you going to be going, Corey? I'm planning to be there, yes. All right. I will sneak you into the v I p. Party last day. But yeah, it's a great event. Very intentional. Touchdown. Tim Tebow's going to be there speaking. John Maxwell will be back. You can't get better than John Maxwell. So I'm humbled that I will be on the same stage as those guys. I bet that's super. I think Tim Tebo is at the event that's going on right now. I think he is he's pretty in demand. You talk about a servant leader that gives back. He's got great faith; he is a big believer in giving back. So I like touchdown Timmy, and I think he got a raw deal in the NFL. I'm just going to go on record and. I don't remember exactly, to be honest. I don't know exactly what happened, but I did; I do remember he things went sideways for him. Yeah. I don't know. Yeah, it's okay. He's doing; I think his calling was, serving the world and giving back and things like that outside of football. The good news is I think football gave them the platform to be able to do that. I think you're; I think that's probably a fair assessment. For sure. So you mentioned Michael's, the chief cust say, what was he again? Does experience officer go into? Can you explain that to me real quick? Yeah. We're big believers of, So Mike, man, Mike's got an incredible story. I want to tag him in this so he can see it. But Mike started off on our call listening and reporting team, right? So one of the things that we provide for all our clients is we listen to all the calls that come in for many reasons to tell you what campaign it comes from at SEO, Pay Per Click, and Google Guarantee. What cities did it come from? Was it a repair job? Was it a new roof job? So we want to give you a lot of valuable data to help you determine your return on investment. So Mike started in the call listening and reporting team, and he has moved up. He's been with the organization for over ten years now. That says a lot about him as far as his staying power goes and you. We are such a believer in giving that customer a great experience. So Mike heads that up now. He and I work closely on a couple of projects together. I can't, can't say enough great things about him. He's at Service World right now, as we discussed. He does a great job within Rhino to make sure that our customer-facing teams and teams that give our customers experience, that he makes sure that runs super. That is, that, that's, that, that's a great story. I've interacted with Mike a couple of times. And he seemed to be super friendly. Yeah. Super nice guy. Yeah, he's excellent. He was giving me a hard time at about six o'clock this morning, texting me about something. So Mike's a great guy. He lives and breathes the core values of Rhino, and again, he started off at the very bottom to work his way up to the executive team at Rhinos. So great. That is, that's a super story. So I want to go back for just one second. You mentioned something said when we were at one of the events a couple of years ago, we noticed that the roofing industry was a bit behind your current HVAC, plumbing, and electrical. So what are you seeing now? It's fast forward a couple of years. What are you seeing now? How and are. Are there other areas in which roofing's also behind, or are they catching up? How does that look now? I think on the job estimation side, some of the software people are still debating on the best software out there to do roof estimations and send out proposals. So that's something that I've seen. I just think, for whatever reason, they've just seemed to be a little behind. And I think some of the guys I've talked to would agree. And I can only really speak from a marketing standpoint. They've been doing some just rudimentary, some beginning marketing. And it's like many roofers we talk about haven't experienced Google, right? Like they just haven't taken. Leap into Google, and I always ask everyone when I talk to them, I'm like, All right, forget roofing for a second. What do we do if we need something in life, clothes, vacations, or home services? We pull out our phones and start to do a search. So I tell people like, you're not there representing on Google. in your personal life, you just told me you use Google for everything. Why would roofs be any different? They wouldn't be right. Even if. People will say I chase storms, it's insurance work, and things like that. Guess what? If you knock on their door, if you leave a flyer, if you make contact with them, they're probably still, when you leave their house, they're going to Google you. And if everything you've said about your business, if your website does not match up to those words, they're going to be like, Man, this guy's like a slick salesperson. Not only crucial for a direct lead that comes in, but really for the protection of your brand, your current business, and then all of your word of mouth, you want to make sure that website is set up so it's going to convert. And again, this is. Also, profit's going to be one if someone needs a roof. There's no storm damage or anything, but the roof is 18, 20 years old, and it's had some leak. Now it's time for a roof. They're going to Google like roofing contractors, roof repair roofers near me in the market where you're in Fort Lauderdale, Virginia Beach, Raleigh, North Carolina. You've got to be there, right? Not only for the people looking for you but those who don't know they're looking for you. They haven't made a decision on who they're going to use. It's starting to get a little bit better, right? And that's, again, why we're here and why we speak so much and why we try to do education. So I think it's gotten better, but I still think there's work to do in the industry. . I'm glad you are helping those guys out. You brought up Google, you said when you brought up Google, ago, I want, I want to ask you, have you seen issues with Google? My business, And I'll tell you why I'm asking this question. My Google, my business got flagged, and it has taken me six months to figure out what happened. And guess what? I just pulled something out of the air, and that's what I think happened. It's a pretty solid guess that's what happened. But are you seeing that with a lot of your local companies? Is Google my business action funny for you guys? Cause I hear this more often than not. There have been a couple of hiccups here recently, and Google, my business, believe it or not, changed its name to its Google business profile now. So that's the new thing. But there have been a couple of hiccups, and I think that's why it's essential to have a marketing company that, you know, has access to Google because, as you probably know, Google. It is not on a timeframe like you might be on a timescale. Google is not on your timeframe, and they're hard to get ahold of sometimes. So you want to have a marketing company that understands how the maps work and the Google business profile, like how you tag things in there. Like you want to make sure you're with a company. It's like me saying, Eh, there's a roof. My roof has a. I could probably go watch some YouTube videos and bump my way around, but that's not what I do. I would call a roofer. So I always tell roofers, Why do you treat your marketing differently? You should outsource it to an expert because Mr. Roofer, you would tell me, Don't get up on your roof and try to fix that roof. You're probably going to do some additional damage you don't know. I tell the roofers the same thing. Stop messing around in your marketing; you're probably doing some ancillary damage you don't even know about. Call an expert. Yeah. And really, and for anybody that's listening, and this is, if this resonates with you like it's not a, it's not a call. The marketing's not really; it's not a cost. And I think a lot of people look at the market. As a line item, as a cost. But I wouldn't argue; I would guarantee that pouring money into marketing should net you more money. That's why you pour money into marketing to make more money. If you've had an experience with someone that hasn't happened, then maybe I can understand being frustrated because I've been there. I think we've all been there at some point. At the end of the day, you have to find somebody you can trust to show you what those results will be. Yeah. Agreed. And I often tell the business owner, " Forget your business for a second. Let's see how life operates, right? I have been to Dunkin Donuts before, and for the most part, they nail my coffee all the. But there have been times they messed up my order and gave me the wrong coffee. It wasn't what I wanted and didn't taste as consistent as the other hundred they had provided me. But that doesn't mean that all coffee places are wrong. It just means they just messed up. Conversely, contractors are the same way, right? So I had to replace my roof and HVAC over the last couple of years. Talk to a bunch of people. Just because I talked to one roofer who's not, Legitimate or is telling me things that aren't true. It doesn't mean that all roofing companies are evil. Inherent marketing is the same way, right? So many people get those, that tunnel vision, the roofers get tunnel vision and go, If I've had a bad experience in marketing, that means all marketing companies are evil. No, it's no different than any other ecosystem we deal with. I've got a guy that cuts my grass like he's fantastic. The person before him was not unique. That didn't mean I should give up on trying to have my grass cut. This guy's amazing. So marketing is the same way, right? You. Just because you've had a bad experience doesn't mean that all marketing companies are evil. And I always chuckle to myself, and I giggle with the contractor. I'm like, you realize that the contracting space doesn't always have the best reputation, right? Now you're one of the good guys, and you must overcome that. Marketing is no different. Coffee is no other. Going out to a restaurant is no different, right? I've got my favorite. They have served me a stake one time. That was not great. But the overall experience with them it's been amazing. So treat your marketing the same way. Get your blinders off for a second, right? And realize that just because you've had a bad experience doesn't mean the industry is terrible. That's right. And ask, ask a lot of questions. If you don't understand something, just ask the. And if you don't understand it, then ask it. Ask it a different way. But if you ask enough questions to enough people, you'll get the answer. Agreed. And again, you want somebody with some teeth in the game that's been around for a while, Rhino, 15 years. We've been in the digital space really since digital has been a thing. So that's super important. And you want to ensure you're getting an education again, not just somebody selling you because. Some of the most challenged clients are people that go with the cheap marketing solution, right? Or the affordable marketing company. Our best customers spend hundreds of thousands of dollars. Our most challenged customers sometimes are someone who tries to go the cheap route, and I would also assume that's the same in roofing and HVAC and plumbing, right? If you need to do a roofing job for $12,500, let's say, and the guy's trying to get you down to $9,900, I would bet my life that's going to be a challenging customer, right? Cause the only thing they see is cost, they don't understand the value. And look at bottled water. You'll sometimes pay $2 for it at the grocery store. In a vending machine, sometimes you might pay $4 for it. If you go to a football game, you might pay $7 for it. Yeah. Why is that? The water's no different, right? It's the perception of value. So marketing is the same way. Make sure you're getting with a company, even coaching, right? You're in the coaching space. We talked about this off the air. Some coaches don't do things the right way. But, it'll take clients to know they can't provide what they're looking for. And I know that you want to align yourself. Corey wants to align himself with customers that are trying to scale, wanna do things the right way, and are looking for good positive feedback on the coaching side; it resonated with me what you said when we were talking about you can always find opportunities. And Tiger Woods had a swing coach, right? Like he was the best golfer. Debatable, but I think he was the best golfer to walk the planet. But in the beginning, he had a swing coach who still did not because the swing coach is better than him at golf, but because they could see things that he couldn't see in the heat of the moment. So I think what you do is fantastic because it ties into what we do, and we have a lot of people who will come to us and say, Hey, we're not getting enough leads, and I'll go a hold. Let me go into your Ryno Tracks reporting and say, " Wow, did you realize that your closing percentage is 20% lower than the industry average? I don't think it's a lead issue. I think it's turning that call into an appointment issue, and you can also do that. On your end. So I like that we're able to align that way and show a customer like, Hey, here's something that we're seeing, and this is good coaching for you like we like. Right? That's right. Yeah, a hundred percent in you. You can't be everything to everybody. If you can't do something, just tell somebody you can't do it because you will have a better result. Yeah. Why would you try to sell somebody something you can't do? How can you even imagine that's going to turn out well? Yeah. I don't know. Maybe it's a, perhaps that's a risk something people take. I don't understand it. It seems like a not a good recipe if you ask me it. It's a recipe for short-term gain but long-term pain. Agreed. A hundred percent. And people can see right through that. And this, you said, you mentioned, our brain. The way we grew up was to go for the money because we, we watched all of these crazy movies when we were younger, and that is, it is different, it is an extra time and it is hard separating that, those two right there, there was a time, I'm sure for you when you realize I've got a shift how I'm approaching customers because this old sales crap that we were taught is just, that's just not working. Yeah. Times have changed. Again, it was easy in the seventies, eighties, and nineties to be very transactional. Hey, do you need this? How much does it cost? Here's how much it costs. Yes, I need this. And look, transactional sales still play a part. And where we're at in life. The real successful relationship builders are the ones that find out about your business and your core values, and how you're trying to connect with customers. Because again, no offense, plenty of roofers out there, plenty of HVAC contractors, plumbing, and electrical contractors. People want more, and they want to consume content. They want to feel good about doing business with you. They want to connect with you from a digital perspective, right? And they know that you do plumbing; they know that you do HVAC, right? No, no offense. And so I think that move to the. The consultative selling process has come a long way in the last 20 years. I agree. I agree. It's, it is the way to sell at this point. And it's interesting when I tell people that I work with people in sales, I have to clarify what that means because it's not what you think it means. It's just not; it's; I'm not going to come in and teach your people how to beat Grant Cardone because that's just not how I roll. Yeah, It's not, and if that's what you want, I'm not your guy, and I'll tell you that, and I'm cool telling you that; I don't think it's anybody; it's not worth my time or yours for me to tell you I can do something that I can't. Yeah. Anyhow. I think it's a great I, yeah. I love that, and I'm glad that everybody, I feel like people are looking at it that way a lot more now, and that makes me feel good. It makes me feel like people are changing the way they're the lens I'm looking through. Which is good. Jeff, this has been a fantastic conversation. I appreciate this show today. And if you could if you wanna tell any, if you wanna leave everybody with where they can find you or the last word or whatever you'd like to say, have at it. Yeah. One, I want to say thank you, man. I enjoy following your stuff on social media. I think you are bringing some much-needed emphasis on coaching to the industry.

Thanks for having me on. RYNO, again, if you're interested in just talking with us to get an education on your digital marketing or just some opinions like, " Hey, run some stuff by me.

Most of our rhino clients have my cell phone anyway, but as I said, I'm not up 24 hours a day like Corey is. But you'll probably get a response pretty much till 10:00 PM Eastern and then back up at 4:00 PM Eastern. There you go. Jeff, thank you by man, and yes, we definitely, we both do agree on how little we need to sleep to perform every day. That's it, man. That's I'm dead. Thank you, man. I appreciate you. Thanks, Corey.

A little over 20 years ago, Charles Petzold wrote what would become a classic book on understanding modern computers and the software that drives them. Computers have become essential to daily life and inhabit more and more of the devices we use every day. Every "smart" device you own contains a computer running software. While these little silicon chips and the binary code running them seem like magic, they're really just a series of simple building blocks chained together to accomplish a task. Having a basic understanding of these concepts can give us a lot more perspective on how computers can be used and abused, programmed and subverted. When I learned that Charles was releasing a fully updated 2nd edition of Code, I asked him to come on the show to give us all a historical overview of computers and software. He graciously agreed. The concepts of computing and programming go back a lot further than you might think. Today we'll learn about this and much more. Charles Petzold is the author of the books Code, The Annotated Turing, and numerous programming tutorials involving Microsoft Windows.

2022-2023 Real Estate Market and What it Means for Land Investing (LA 1810) Transcript: Steven Jack Butala: Steve and Jill here. Jill DeWit: Howdy. Steven Jack Butala: Welcome to the Land Academy Show, Entertaining Land Investment talk. I'm Steven Jack Butala. Jill DeWit: And I'm Jill DeWit broadcasting from sunny Southern California. Steven Jack Butala: Today. I'm going to talk about, and Jill's probably going to listen the 2022 and 23 real estate market and what it means for land investors like us. Jill DeWit: Hilarious. Steven Jack Butala: Here's a hint. It's awesome. Jill DeWit: I'm excited. Steven Jack Butala: Interest rates are going up. Jill DeWit: I hope you're going to let me share. Am I going to get to talk today? Okay. Steven Jack Butala: God, when do you not talk? Jill DeWit: Am I just going to be someone on your arm again? Steven Jack Butala: Oh geez. Yeah. Yep. My trophy partner, Jill. Jill DeWit: Yeah, that's right. Hey, watch it buddy. Steven Jack Butala: Before we get into it, let's take a question posted by one of our members on the landinvestors.com online community, it's free and please make sure you check us out on discord, if you're a member. If you need help outsourcing your mail operation, meaning you know, your blind offer campaigns. Check us out at offers 2 owners, offers the number two owners.com and click around for product we released called concierge data. It allows people who are brand new to help... We'll help you get that first mailer out or if you've been sending 50, 80,000 mailers out a month, like we do sometimes allows you to outsource it there. It's a great product. It's getting used widely to the point where we had to shut its down recently, because we couldn't fill the orders. So by the time this airs, it should be back open or if not very soon after that. Jill DeWit: Sweet. Steven Jack Butala: Staffing. Jill DeWit: Erin wrote, "Is there a reliable way to check out whether a subdivision has an HOA with covenants?" I've never known HOA that didn't have some covenants, but there we go. Anyway. "Sometimes it is easy when they have a website. Are they recorded? For the lot I'm looking at now in a new area, I pulled the recorded plot, but all I could find related to the, is a subdivision name." There we go. "So far I see no evidence of an HOA, but it isn't a big subdivision. So what do I do?" Steven Jack Butala: This comes up. May I? Jill DeWit: Okay. Steven Jack Butala: No, go ahead. Jill DeWit: No, that's fine. No, no go ahead. Steven Jack Butala: What do you do? Jill DeWit: So here's what I do. This does come up because you're not sure. Usually if there's a name like Shady Acres. All right. Shady Acres lot 23. All right. I might need to look into that just to make sure versus just the legal description and no thing like that, like lot, block, unit kind of thing. Even those could be, but usually you'll have a little indication. It's something you always want to check no matter what anyway. So how I check is there's three ways. I do my own Google digging. My Google search for Shady Acres HOA, POA, homeowner association, property owner association. See if everything pops up. Okay. Nothing there. Okay, good. This is good news. Then I go to phase two, which is... This takes a few minutes by the way. Phase two is I'm going to go out and look for property for sale or sold in that area and see if there was an HOA like, "Oh look, here's a property in the same subdivision that sold 18 months ago," I'm going to be looking at the comp anyway, cause I'm checking it out and then I'm going to go through the description and see, "Oh look, it was an agent." And I'll look through and see, is there an HOA or POA the box? There's some information in there. Often that's where I find it, by the way is doing a little recon to somebody else's posting and then I've got it like, "Okay, noted. There it is." And then the third one, it's always an easy one too.
2022-2023 Real Estate Market and What it Means for Land Investing (LA 1810) Transcript: Steven Jack Butala: Steve and Jill here. Jill DeWit: Howdy. Steven Jack Butala: Welcome to the Land Academy Show, Entertaining Land Investment talk. I'm Steven Jack Butala. Jill DeWit: And I'm Jill DeWit broadcasting from sunny Southern California. Steven Jack Butala: Today. I'm going to talk about, and Jill's probably going to listen the 2022 and 23 real estate market and what it means for land investors like us. Jill DeWit: Hilarious. Steven Jack Butala: Here's a hint. It's awesome. Jill DeWit: I'm excited. Steven Jack Butala: Interest rates are going up. Jill DeWit: I hope you're going to let me share. Am I going to get to talk today? Okay. Steven Jack Butala: God, when do you not talk? Jill DeWit: Am I just going to be someone on your arm again? Steven Jack Butala: Oh geez. Yeah. Yep. My trophy partner, Jill. Jill DeWit: Yeah, that's right. Hey, watch it buddy. Steven Jack Butala: Before we get into it, let's take a question posted by one of our members on the landinvestors.com online community, it's free and please make sure you check us out on discord, if you're a member. If you need help outsourcing your mail operation, meaning you know, your blind offer campaigns. Check us out at offers 2 owners, offers the number two owners.com and click around for product we released called concierge data. It allows people who are brand new to help... We'll help you get that first mailer out or if you've been sending 50, 80,000 mailers out a month, like we do sometimes allows you to outsource it there. It's a great product. It's getting used widely to the point where we had to shut its down recently, because we couldn't fill the orders. So by the time this airs, it should be back open or if not very soon after that. Jill DeWit: Sweet. Steven Jack Butala: Staffing. Jill DeWit: Erin wrote, "Is there a reliable way to check out whether a subdivision has an HOA with covenants?" I've never known HOA that didn't have some covenants, but there we go. Anyway. "Sometimes it is easy when they have a website. Are they recorded? For the lot I'm looking at now in a new area, I pulled the recorded plot, but all I could find related to the, is a subdivision name." There we go. "So far I see no evidence of an HOA, but it isn't a big subdivision. So what do I do?" Steven Jack Butala: This comes up. May I? Jill DeWit: Okay. Steven Jack Butala: No, go ahead. Jill DeWit: No, that's fine. No, no go ahead. Steven Jack Butala: What do you do? Jill DeWit: So here's what I do. This does come up because you're not sure. Usually if there's a name like Shady Acres. All right. Shady Acres lot 23. All right. I might need to look into that just to make sure versus just the legal description and no thing like that, like lot, block, unit kind of thing. Even those could be, but usually you'll have a little indication. It's something you always want to check no matter what anyway. So how I check is there's three ways. I do my own Google digging. My Google search for Shady Acres HOA, POA, homeowner association, property owner association. See if everything pops up. Okay. Nothing there. Okay, good. This is good news. Then I go to phase two, which is... This takes a few minutes by the way. Phase two is I'm going to go out and look for property for sale or sold in that area and see if there was an HOA like, "Oh look, here's a property in the same subdivision that sold 18 months ago," I'm going to be looking at the comp anyway, cause I'm checking it out and then I'm going to go through the description and see, "Oh look, it was an agent."
