In this episode, Keith Kalfas lays down the honest truth about rejection in business — and how you can transform ghosting and “no's” into unstoppable momentum for your landscaping hustle. If you've ever poured your heart into proposals only to have customers vanish faster than a free donut at a staff meeting, Keith is here to fire you up. He shares how to build unshakable resilience, grow your “thick skin,” and adopt a numbers-driven mindset that helps you plant seeds far and wide — and harvest golden clients from the crowd. “You should be so busy in your business that you don't even remember the customers who ghosted you.” – Keith Kalfas Topics Covered: Why you must expect and embrace rejection in business The power of massive action: 100 quotes, 100 follow-ups, 100 conversations How to identify and retain your dream clients — the ones who pay well, tip generously, and treat you with respect How to let go of emotional baggage and focus on stacking value for your customers Proven strategies to stay top-of-mind with past leads and keep your pipeline full Real-world pricing wisdom, from $50 lawn cuts to $1,300 shrub cleanups Keith's shotgun farmer approach to planting “seeds” in marketing And a priceless reminder that your best clients are worth bending over backwards for — while still holding your professional boundaries Key Takeaways Rejection Is Fuel, Not Failure Keith stresses that rejection is inevitable — and actually necessary — to build a thriving business. Don't take it personally; use it to sharpen your skills and keep pushing forward. Plant Seeds Broadly to Harvest Golden Clients Don't rely on one or two prospects. Keith urges you to market, quote, and follow up at scale, so you can sift through the masses and find the dream clients who truly value your work. Retain and Protect Your Best Clients The real gold is in retaining your best customers — the ones who pay well, respect you, and make business a joy.

In Episode 1 of the podcast series The Profit Marketing Method, titled “Why Random Marketing Isn't a Strategy,” host Samantha Sheppard dives into the chaos of unplanned marketing and why it's leaving business owners burned out and stuck. She calls out the “spaghetti strategy”—throwing content out and hoping something sticks—and explains how this leads to inconsistent results and wasted energy. Instead, she introduces the Profit Marketing Method, a five-part system (Foundation, Attract, Nurture, Convert, Retain) designed to turn marketing into a streamlined, strategic, and profitable process. The episode focuses on the power of having a plan and lays the groundwork for building a marketing system that gets results. Listeners are invited to ditch the guesswork and join the Audience Growth Challenge to finally market with purpose—not pressure.----------------------------------------------➡️ Save your seat inside the Audience Growth Challenge HERE!➡️ DMA's - Daily Marketing Activities Checklist: Click HERE➡️ Have questions or topics YOU want to learn about?

Elie Mystal, author of Bad Law: Ten Popular Laws That Are Ruining America, joins Sam to unpack how America could choose just ten laws to get rid of, and how you actually go about repealing laws—spoiler, it’s actually pretty easy. They commiserate over watching Democrats squander power when they have it, and how at best they’re a part of wet blankets, and why it’s their obligation to continually shout about what’s happening so that people finally pay attention. They talk about the utter importance of reaching young voters where they are—even if that means getting politicians to make videos of themselves at the gym and learn to forget about “gaffe culture.” Plus, Elie talks about the hope he has that the 2026 midterms will be the Democrats’ Tea Party moment and why Trump’s breakup with the Federalist Society gives him glimmers of hope.

In preparing for this recording, it just gave me a total PTSD flashback to the pandemic. And we had the Great Resignation. Oh, my goodness. At the time of this recording, it's 2025. I was just thinking about that, and I was also thinking about this idea that once we find a great teammate—a great team member—we want so badly to keep them. I think about the NCAA collegiate coaches right now and what they're having to do, working so hard not just to find new talent, but to keep the talent they already have. It's so easy for these players to go back and forth. So let's talk about this idea of retention in your business so that you can make sure to retain the right talent—the talent that is really offering a lot of value not only to the business and the mission itself, but also to the actual team members. They're finding joy in their work. So let's see if we can liberate you from chaos by helping you retain the right talent. It's Scott Beebe with Business On Purpose again. Go check out the Dickie and Donnie Show on this thread, that wonderful podcast that Shawn and Brandon, two of the coaches here at Business On Purpose, have been building for you. We've got a lot of people listening to it. Super fun. Alright, let's talk about retention. To retain talent, you've got to learn to invest time in deep, meaningful conversations. Now, I realize I've just lost a lot of you. Some of you might just turn this podcast off because you're thinking, That is not within my wheelhouse. Listen—people crave attention. You do, too. I do, too. We crave connection. When we feel disconnected, we're likely to go look somewhere else, no matter how rewarding the work itself might be. You might go, Well, this is my ideal job. Yeah, but it's not my ideal culture. So one effective way to foster connection is through what we call the Big 5 Feedback Loop. It's a concept you've heard me mention before on this podcast, and it's inspired by the Big Five safari animals in Africa. And to be honest, I don't really remember what they are—I'm sure there's probably a lion and a giraffe and an elephant or something like that—but you can look them up. The Big 5 Feedback Loop consists of five elements that are crucial for small business success. Just imagine a loop with five points on it. 1. Team Meeting This is a weekly, one-hour gathering led by a leader with a set agenda. It's not new—but it's intentional. One hour, agenda-driven, leader-led. During this meeting, you celebrate big wins, review what we call the "anchor" (the essential culture-building elements in your business), do training, give handbook reminders, celebrate birthdays and anniversaries, and review the upcoming 4, 8, 12, and 16-week calendar. Most people forget to do all that because we get too busy talking about daily tasks and sales. You also discuss your 12-week goals—three quarterly objectives—and you touch briefly on each business system (Marketing, Sales, Operations, Admin) at a high level. This is NOT the time for project-level problem solving. That comes later. 2. Departmental Meetings These are weekly, one-hour sessions focused on specific business systems or departments—Marketing, Sales, Ops, Admin. If you need to combine Marketing and Sales because you're small, that's okay. These meetings dive into repetitive elements and results. In your Operations meeting, for instance, this is where you talk job-by-job and get into production details. But this is the only place to do that. 3. Executive Meeting This meeting is for your high-level leadership team. Even in a small business, it's valuable to zoom out and take a bird's-eye view of things once or twice a month. You talk about strategy, big-picture issues, and alignment. 4. One-on-One Check-ins These are short, 15-minute meetings with each team member, ideally once or twice a month. They follow a five-question format: What big win do you have from this month? What are you seeing and thinking right now? What blind spots do I have? What do you need from me? Here's what I see and what I need from you. (Note: The fifth one is a statement, not a question—this is where you provide feedback.) 5. Annual Performance Review This happens once or twice a year. What makes it work is that it's two-way. Half the review is your evaluation of the team member, and the other half is their self-assessment. You can use the same set of questions for both, usually delivered in a form ahead of the meeting. If you'll implement the Big 5 Feedback Loop—Team Meetings, Departmental Meetings, Executive Meetings, One-on-One Check-ins, and Annual Reviews—you create multiple intentional touchpoints for communication and connection. When you do that, you build a strong, engaged team that feels valued and understood. And when people feel seen and heard, retention becomes less of a challenge. Yes, there will always be challenges—we're working with people, after all—but you can reduce turnover, increase trust, and ultimately improve your business performance.

The baseball world is still buzzing about the shocking trade that sent Rafael Devers to the San Francisco Giants only two seasons after the Boston Red Sox signed him to an 11-year contract extension. While Devers is already making a great first impression by the Bay, there are still questions about why Boston traded away yet another superstar from their roster.Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman talk about Devers' debut with the Giants, including a star-studded press conference and already mashing in his first game, as well as whether he could play a position the Red Sox once hoped he'd fill when the team rolls into San Francisco this weekend.Also on this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake and Jordan welcome journalist Joon Lee to try to make sense of the trade from the Red Sox's side. After trading away Mookie Betts, Chris Sale, and Rafael Devers—along with not re-signing Xander Bogaerts—the guys wonder if the team is losing credibility with an already irritated fan base. Then, they talk about Shohei Ohtani's return to the mound and Gage Wood throwing a no-hitter in the College World Series.(2:43) – The Opener: Devers' debut in San Francisco(23:33) – Joon Lee joins the show to talk Red Sox(50:33) – Around the League: Shohei Ohtani pitches again(54:01) – Gage Wood twirls a no-hitter(57:47) – Jordan's notes from the MLB Draft Combine Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:
