In this episode, I was lucky enough to interview James Griffin, CEO of Invene.James shares how he transitioned from a self-taught coder with early entrepreneurial tendencies to leading a successful healthcare-focused software firm. Raised in an engineering-driven household in McKinney, Texas, James initially pursued biomedical engineering before shifting to computer science, eventually leveraging a full-ride college scholarship to start several ventures. His turning point came after a mentor introduced him to a company needing software support—leading to his first $10,000 consulting client. While balancing this opportunity with a struggling product startup, James leaned into healthcare after discovering it was the most responsive and financially viable industry, allowing him to bootstrap Invene.Throughout the conversation, James emphasizes the importance of focus and specialization. He candidly advises agency owners to stop being indecisive and commit to a niche, explaining how his early decision to focus solely on healthcare unlocked higher value clients and stronger referrals. Drawing from his own experience and conversations with other agency founders, James outlines a three-pronged framework for specialization: choosing what energizes you, what motivates your team, and what generates the most profit. Let's crack the code and uncover James Griffins' unstoppable mindset in this episode of The First Customer!

In the dynamic world of real estate investing, one challenge consistently rises to the top: finding motivated seller leads. On a recent episode of “Raising Private Money,” host Jay Conner, nationally recognized as the Private Money Authority, sat down with Nicholas Nick, founder of Lead Mining Pros, to talk shop on innovative, practical lead generation strategies that can skyrocket your investing business, whether you're a seasoned pro or just starting.From Restaurants to Real Estate: The Nicholas Nick JourneyNicholas Nick's path to real estate marketing is anything but typical. Before founding Lead Mining Pros, he spent over a decade in the restaurant industry, managing massive teams and enduring grueling workweeks. This experience fostered in him a fearless mindset and a deep understanding of people—two essential skills for real estate success.His leap from hospitality to real estate came through event coordination at a major real estate coaching company. Here, he discovered all investors' pain points: wasted money on inefficient marketing, especially direct mail campaigns with little to show for it.A pivotal moment came when a client, devastated after spending $5,000 on direct mail without a single call in return, reached out for help. Nick realized there had to be a better way, and so he shifted his approach from costly, passive marketing to proactive cold calling. This hands-on shift not only saved money but also began bringing in results.The Birth of Lead Mining ProsStarting, Nicholas personally cold-called hundreds of potential leads every day. Word spread quickly among his peers, who soon began hiring him to generate leads for their businesses. This grassroots, performance-driven approach laid the foundation for Lead Mining Pros, which now generates over $38,000 a week in sales, helping real estate investors build a robust lead pipeline.What makes Lead Mining Pros different? According to Nicholas, it's the combination of tailored lists, high-accuracy skip tracing, and a choice between American or foreign cold callers—each ideal for different markets or strategies. “Niche lists or land? Choose an American caller for the best rapport. Saturated markets or high volumes? Foreign callers, at a third of the cost, get the job done,” Nick advises.Additionally, Lead Mining Pros offers comprehensive, done-for-you texting campaigns and, perhaps most importantly, top-tier customer service. New real estate investors don't just get leads—they get direct access to Nicholas himself for coaching, feedback, and campaign optimization. Free online courses and weekly check-ins ensure that clients get the most from every campaign, and, crucially, learn how to convert warm leads into hot deals.What Works Best: Calls, Texts, or Direct Mail?Jay Conner and Nicholas Nick share a vital takeaway: the most effective lead generation strategy depends on your budget, goals, and willingness to roll up your sleeves. If funds allow, running direct mail, calling, and texting campaigns simultaneously can help you gather invaluable data and maximize response rates. But if you need to prioritize, start with cold calling and texting. These channels not only tend to generate more leads for less money, but they also allow for rapid testing and adjustment.That said, calling and texting do require real hustle. “You can't be an armchair quarterback with a calling campaign,” Nicholas stresses. “If you process and systematize your approach, you can outperform direct mail. But you have to be ready to work those leads.”Converting More Leads: The Secret SauceA persistent issue for investors is making contact with a lead after the initial inquiry. Nicholas's solution: persistence and a structured follow-up sequence. He recommends up to 18 touches (calls, texts, and voicemails) per lead, ensuring no opportunity slips through the cra

The Power of Niching: Why Focused Offerings Create a Bigger Impact with Kelly SpartaIn this episode, Kelle Sparta, a transformational shaman and spiritual business coach, and Katherine Loranger, a spiritual business coach, delve into the importance of finding and focusing on a niche for business success.

If your sales have slowed and your offer isn't landing, it's probably not your pricing—it's your positioning. In a tight market, buyers aren't gambling on vague promises or “kinda-sorta” solutions. They're choosing clarity, confidence, and specialists who solve specific problems. This episode is your wake-up call to stop blending in. We're breaking down why narrowing your niche (even further) is your best move—and how a sharp micro niche can transform your existing offer from “meh” to must-have. Topics discussed in this episode include: Why so much advice on micro niches is trash. Why clarity is necessary in a shaky economy. Five signs your niche isn't working. What makes up a strong micro niche? Where to begin with micro-niching? For detailed show notes and links to everything in this episode, please visit bsfreebusiness.com.

Ever wondered how far someone could get simply by looking official and speaking with confidence? This episode dives into the hilariously audacious world of a TikTok comedian who's built an entire brand around posing as an "OSHA Cares Diversity Affairs" representative. Armed with nothing but a white polo shirt, clipboard, and fake badge number, he walks into businesses and confronts management with absurd "anonymous employee complaints" – including one about someone "running around like he on powder" and management having "a personal vendetta against bisexual Brian."From there, we dive into our signature random sample bag segment, pulling out a fragrance for review. The conversation unexpectedly evolves into a spirited debate about cats, the horrifying experience of opening wet cat food, and whether scented laundry products might be interfering with your carefully chosen fragrances – a consideration many perfume enthusiasts overlook.Support the showJoin Our Patreon

Imagine that you're an entrepreneur who's already had an exit. You're working on a Master's degree at MIT's Entrepreneur Program, and then you get a call from a talent scout at Shark Tank.Not only that, but that phone call landed you a million-dollar investment from the Sharks for your restaurant business (still one of the top five deals ever to this day) and a seven-figure exit a few years later.That's just scratching the surface of why I'm excited to introduce you to my friend Yuen Yung. Yuen is a serial entrepreneur, investor, and the Co-Founder of HalBar Partners, a niche private equity firm specializing in a relatively unknown but powerful asset class: Search Funds.In our conversation, you'll hear the experience Yuen has gained from having several successful exists, why he believes that alternative investments and real estate offer better ROI and security than the public markets, and why his newest venture into search funds—an asset class averaging a 35% IRR—could be a game-changer for investors seeking higher multiples with the steady returns of private equity.In this episode, you'll learn: 1.) Why traditional stock market investing with 60/40 portfolios feels outdated—and why the ultra-wealthy are investing their money in alternative investments.2.) What Search Funds are and why this niche asset class differs from the more common private equity and venture capital investment opportunities—and why most people have never heard of them.3.) How Yuen earned a $1 million dollar investment on Shark Tank, despite initially turning down the opportunity and how he turned it into a 7-figure exit.Show Notes: LifestyleInvestor.com/238Tax Strategy MasterclassIf you're interested in learning more about Tax Strategy and how YOU can apply 28 of the best, most effective strategies right away, check out our BRAND NEW Tax Strategy Masterclass: www.lifestyleinvestor.com/taxStrategy Session For a limited time, my team is hosting free, personalized consultation calls to learn more about your goals and determine which of our courses or masterminds will get you to the next level.

Mel Stubbs is a seasoned financial planner at Christy Capital Management, specializing in helping federal employees navigate the complexities of retirement. With over a decade of experience, Mel stands out for his deep expertise in federal benefits, practical financial planning, and his ability to break down complex topics for everyday listeners. Beyond his advisory work, Mel has built a loyal YouTube following, where he shares actionable financial advice, and is also the author of a book aimed at guiding federal employees through critical retirement decisions. On this episode we talk about: – How Mel made his first dollar (cutting grass) and most recent dollar (book royalties) – The power of niche content creation and building trust online – Key retirement planning decisions for federal employees and beyond – Tax planning strategies: Roth vs. traditional accounts and the impact of future tax rates – Side hustles and second careers for government employees approaching retirement – Asset allocation, diversification, and the role of income-producing investments – Mistakes to avoid with taxable accounts and required minimum distributions – Advice for young people on maximizing Roth contributions and planning for the long term – The complexity of the tax code and how to leverage incentives for better outcomes Top 3 Takeaways 1. Niche content can drive real business results. You don't need a million followers; a dedicated audience-even in the thousands-can lead to meaningful opportunities and income, especially when you're serving a specific need. 2. Tax planning is crucial at every stage. Understanding the difference between Roth and traditional retirement accounts-and making decisions based on your current and future tax brackets-can save you significant money over time. 3. Retirement is about more than money-it's about purpose. Many federal employees use their financial security to launch side businesses or passion projects in retirement, emphasizing the importance of planning for both finances and fulfillment.
