In this episode, Dan and Ian discuss the credible and reliable ways to build wealth through your business, based on the work of author Keith Cunningham. The conversation emphasizes building a financially sound foundation for your business by understanding and applying financial principles, planning effectively, managing risks, and maintaining financial discipline. As Cunningham says, "Building a business without mastering the financial statements is like building a house on the beach. It's not if the tide will come in, it's when. And the tide always comes in." Enjoy this week's episode as you consider how to build a durable business for long-term success!

In the fifth part of this six-part series on Stories from the River, host Charlie Malouf welcomes back guest and good friend Charlie Workmon, President and CEO of Riverstone Logistics. In this episode, Charlie W discusses making the move to take over Riverstone Logistics full time with his full focus and effort. He discusses the transition as well as asking Charlie M to serve as his formal mentor in 2021. They discuss the mutually beneficial mentorship meetings that they held every two weeks, which included a formal agenda and walking through the influential Keith J. Cunningham book together, "The Road Less Stupid: Advice from the Chairman of the Board." Charlie W talked about reflecting on the phrase: Know the game you're playing. As Charlie W began to embrace the practice of "Thinking Time" that he took from Cunningham's book, he began to see clearly that Riverstone would be a people-centric and a client-centric platform for loving people well. And not to be the biggest or the best but just to be on the journey and improve a little bit each day. This belief would eventually be infused into the Company's purpose to love, serve, and improve. In 2021, Charlie W also came to the realization that the Company needed to be well capitalized in order to be able to run further faster. This realization would eventually lead him to facilitating a transaction and to bring in a sponsor (i.e., a group of investors) who believed in the vision and to come help them take the Company to a completely different level in a way that's meant to love people. Charlie W cited the connection that he made with Harold Baron, the former CEO of Nolan Transportation, and the key leader behind the strategic money and group of private investors who would invest in RLX. Harold is now the Chairman of the Board of Directors for RLX. Charlie W reflected on the day that transaction closed in mid October 2021 and the gravity of that transaction. He knew that they had put the Company in a really good position for the future, and that this was setting the stage to not just survive but to flourish with open hands. The stage had been set to have rapid growth with strong financial backing. Riverstone Logistics has seen impressive growth with revenues increasing from $13M in 2020, tripling to $42M in 2021, then doubling to $85M in 2022, more than doubling again in 2023 to $191M, and projected to reach $300M in 2024. RLX has been recognized as one of the fastest growing companies in Charlotte by the Charlotte Business Journal for the past three years, and they completed their first acquisition late last year. Charlie W says that RLX today is a sunrise company who's best days are ahead of us. Their operations reach across 31 states and three countries with 650 Extra Milers ("Extra Milers" being the term given to RLX's full-time employees). RLX is a multi-modal logistics company with a successful Final Mile division as well as a growing brokerage division. Their big customers are Lowe's, The Home Depot, IKEA, HD Supply, Crate & Barrel, Ashley Store licensees, and GE Appliances. Charlie W explains that they are playing the part of a company that is set to do business differently. He says that they have a "Field of Dreams" mindset where they bring key people in ahead of the need while waiting to see if their client would also join the company. A mindset of "If you build it, they will come." And, Charlie W says that they strive to over serve their clients, that they're structured to serve and love them well, that they have a transparent cost model, and that they work with their clients to share costs and help rein them in. And he says that they focus on being open hands, being transparent and reliable, and enroll them on the front end as to what is a fair margin for their services. Charlie W unpacks the inspiration behind the company's Purpose statement "to use our God-given talents and opportunities to love our neighbors, serve our communities and improve our industry," which he and the management team crafted in late 2021. And then Charlie W also walks through the seven Core Beliefs of Riverstone Logistics: - Go the Extra Mile - Run through the Storm - Canoe the Mountains - Win the Right Way - Pencils Have Erasers - Mutual Prosperity - Profit Fuels Purpose Book mentioned: The Road Less Stupid: Advice from the Chairman of the Board - Keith Cunningham - https://www.amazon.com/Road-Less-Stupid-Keith-Cunningham/dp/0984659269 RLX Purpose & Core Beliefs: https://rlx.us/purpose/ Listen to part one of this conversation, Family Business to Logistics Leader: How Charlie Workmon Got Started: https://youtu.be/2dtnhUNHwLs Listen to part two of this conversation, Parenthood, Prayer, and Perspective Fuel Purpose for Charlie Workmon: https://youtu.be/aqYuV1qQokk Listen to part three of this conversation, Broad River's 2015 Bold Reset: Turning Challenges into Opportunities with Charlie Workmon: https://youtu.be/1AW0WwZaC4A Listen to part four of this conversation, Purpose-Driven Leadership in Retail Operations with Charlie Workmon: https://youtu.be/1AW0WwZaC4A This episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/nS3gzJAjF0s Visit https://www.storiesfromtheriver.com for more episodes.

From a corporate learning and development background, John Tonkin has worked with some of Australia's leading companies. The common thread was systems – helping the team to do the right thing the right way at the right time. After 12 years of valuable corporate experience, John launched his first business in 2000, specialising in business systems. It was all about bringing big business practices to the small business world where the focus on ROI is so much stronger and the investment of the owner is straight from the heart. Since founding Brain in a Box in 2007, John now specialises in helping business owners to balance the demands of running the business, creating and keeping their systems up to date, and guiding the team as they work with renewed enthusiasm, accountability and client focus. With hundreds of clients covering the whole business spectrum, John has a practical understanding of the challenges and needs of those business owners who strive to improve their businesses by strengthening their systems. John gets a kick out of hearing proud owners and team members sound surprised when they see their systems working the way they were always supposed to. The pride they develop in their revitalised business reflects the practical, direct approach to developing systems that John has carefully honed over the past 35 years, supported by the award-winning Brain in a Box team. It works.

In this episode of Limitless MD, Vikram Raya welcomes Dr. Sunny Smith, a successful physician turned coach. Together, they offer some interesting insight about a controversial question - What if being a physician is just the beginning of the journey and not the final destination? Both Vikram and Sunny believe that mindset is everything when it comes to becoming limitless and exploring different paths. Or, as Sunny puts it, once you discover your North Star, you have to start moving and course-correct continually in order to fulfill your desires. Sunny had an accident in 2017 that left her bedridden for months. At that point, she thought the world was going to stop to wait for her to recover. She had to complete her duties as a physician and as an academic, as well as take care of her child. But that just didn't happen - the world kept spinning. Looking for entertainment with her limited mobility, she discovered The Life Coach School Podcast. She listened to ALL the available episodes. And then, she became a certified coach herself to help physicians who were looking to avoid burnout and who no longer wanted to tolerate the life they had been living. Vikram and Sunny share their love for coaching because they know first-hand that it really works to become our limitless avatars. Besides, they are not the only ones. Sunny mentions three different randomized controlled trials showing that physicians who got coaching got better at the workplace and also felt better in their personal lives. Her working style, the books she's reading, and why she is living in Puerto Rico are other gems to be found in this honest, authentic, and brilliant episode. “What if being a physician is the beginning? What if that's the foundation? What if this is what we build the entire rest of our futures on?” - Dr. Sunny Smith In This Episode: - Welcome back to another episode of the Limitless MD podcast - Introducing Dr. Sunny Smith - Mindset is everything when wanting to become limitless - Being a physician may be just the beginning of the journey - All the rules for working in medicine are made up by humans - Sunny's personal story from breakdown to breakthrough - The Life Coach School Podcast - Losing a loved one makes you realize that mortality is real - You no longer have to tolerate the life that you have been living - Coaching for physicians - Randomized controlled trials showing that physicians who got coaching got better - Different styles of coaching - Books that Sunny is reading right now - Unplugging from the matrix and helping other physicians do the same - Sunny doesn't only work with clients who are women - Sunny's life in Puerto Rico - Find your North Star and keep course-correcting Resources Mentioned: - https://thelifecoachschool.com/podcast/ (The Life Coach School Podcast) - https://katrinaubellmd.com/ (Pediatrician and coach Katrina Ubell) - https://www.amazon.com/Choice-Dr-Edith-Eva-Eger/dp/150113079X/ref=sr_1_1?crid=ORFRON3E1TGD&keywords=the+choice+edith+eger&qid=1663872238&sprefix=the+choice+edi%2Caps%2C329&sr=8-1 (The Choice: Embrace The Possible) - https://www.amazon.com/Road-Less-Stupid-Keith-Cunningham/dp/0984659269 (The Road Less Stupid) - https://www.amazon.com/How-Lose-Weight-Last-Time/dp/1538709368/ref=sr_1_1?crid=38LECMU7805G5&keywords=katrina+ubell+book&qid=1663872705&s=books&sprefix=katrina+ubbell+book%2Cstripbooks%2C211&sr=1-1 (How to Lose Weight for the Last Time: Brain-Based Solutions for Permanent Weight Loss) - https://www.amazon.com/Determined-Burned-Doctors-Thrive-Medical/dp/1544531494 (Determined: How Burned Out Doctors Can Thrive in a Broken Medical System) Resources: - https://limitless-md.mn.co/ (Join our FREE group coaching program: the Physician Wealth Accelerator) - https://vikramraya.com/programs/ (https://vikramraya.com/programs/) - https://vikramraya.com/ (Sign...

Quote “If I tell you I will teach you to be a millionaire in 10 years, nobody will buy that. If I tell you I will teach you to be a millionaire this weekend, everyone will throw money at you and they'll go broke. I can't do that. It's not what I believe. It's not with integrity. And through that journey, I came across this thing and I'm like, ‘What do you mean business owners don't look at their financials? How do you go into business and not understand the business of business?' – Rocky Lalvani, chief profitability officer at Profit Comes First.

About the guest: Rocky Lalvani was shocked to learn most business owners don't look at their financial reports! Can you believe that? It has to do with our mindsets around money and also fear and shame. When he realized how much of a problem this was, he knew this was his purpose to help business owners be profitable. Rocky serves as chief profitability adviser for business owners. He teaches them how to ensure they get paid and make profit a priority! As a certified Profit First Professional, he implements Mike Michalowicz's Profit First System, where they change the accounting formula of Sales - Expenses = Profit to Sales - Profit = Expenses. This ensures Profit comes first! (P.S. It's not about money at all costs, people come before money!) Rocky started with nothing when his parents immigrated to the United States when he was two years old, and his parents were in their 40s. It was his parents' second time starting over in life as they moved here to experience the American dream. Despite a lot of struggles and his mom passing away when Rocky was 7, he has been able to achieve financial and life success. Rocky loves to share his journey and inspire others to achieve their dreams even faster.

It's not how I can do it, but who I can partner or collaborate with to get through that ceiling.” “A percentage of a billion dollars is better than a hundred percent of a hundred thousand dollars.” “That's a dichotomy that you're always gonna run across. People who have an issue of too much cash to deploy generally lack talent and then people who have a network of talent generally lack capital to leverage that talent. Essentially, there's always going to be a tug-of-war between capital and talent.” “Too many people think that the only way to learn is to employ someone, but you can get a consultant or a coach to help you.” “You want to be free so you have the freedom to pursue excellence, not the freedom from restraints.” “The toughest thing for entrepreneurs is to take time away from the business to think.” “If you don't have time to think, there is no clarity.” “People that are super successful at what they do don't just quit or get fired, they're largely looking for opportunities while they're employed.” “You either pay in salary for talent or you pay in misery for not doing it.” Links Instagram: Marck De Lautour https://www.instagram.com/marckdelautour/?hl=en Jimmy Vreeland https://www.instagram.com/jimmyvreeland Podcast: Rise up.

On this episode of The Friday Habit, Ben and Mark discuss the idea of making time and space for thinking, planning, and reflection, as inspired by the book “The Road Less Stupid” by Keith Cunningham. What if you were to spend the same amount of time thinking as you do mindlessly scrolling through social media? You may be surprised by how much clarity you can gain from setting aside this intentional thinking time, even if it is only 15 minutes a day.In his book, Cunningham outlines the 5 core disciplines of thinking time: Find the unasked question – Ask better and better questions of yourself until you nail down the core problem. Separate the problem from the symptom – Don't stop at just diagnosing the symptom; there is always a root issue that needs to be uncovered and addressed. Check your assumptions – Don't rely on your feelings or perceptions about how things are going; rely on facts and try to be objective. Consider second-order consequences – Think about the long-term implications and the potential domino effects of your actions. Create the machine – Design the process, execute, and surround yourself with the adequate resources. Also within the book, Cunningham offers self-reflection questions for further discovery. You may also find it helpful to set a timer during your thinking time, have specific materials and a dedicated space for thinking, and to bake thinking time into your schedule and then commit to doing it even if you have other things come up. Your action item after this episode is to block off 2 hours of dedicated thinking time for next week.Links:“The Road Less Stupid” by Keith Cunningham: https://www.amazon.com/Road-Less-Stupid-Keith-Cunningham/dp/0984659269 Connect with us:https://www.thefridayhabit.com/thefridayhabit@knapsackcreative.com https://www.instagram.com/benjaminmanleyhttp://www.benjaminmanley.com/ https://www.brandvivamedia.com/https://www.facebook.com/Marklab2https://www.linkedin.com/in/marklab2/

A CMO does not have time to waste, as they are focused on driving revenue for the company. Marketers that are executing campaigns, need to be thinking in the same manner, rather than continuing to do busy work that is not producing money for the business. A Fractional CMO, Marketing Coach, Consultant, Podcast Host, and Founder of CMOx, Casey Slaughter Stanton, challenges marketers to take a step back, look at the results that their campaigns are producing, and then shift their efforts to what is really driving revenue for the company. Takeaways: A sales conversation is a conversation with someone who has the financial ability and authority to say yes to your offer. Marketing needs to be driving efforts that create opportunities for these conversations to happen. Soft branded messaging is a waste of time for your company because it is not presenting value to your buyer nor helping them to solve their problem. Take a side with your content and create an enemy in your storytelling. Who is your company's enemy? If it is no action, then be clear about why your buyers should take action. Create emails to your prospects that are personalized and that come from a person rather than a whole company. What is the point of a no-reply email? Use email nurture campaigns to help onboard new customers. Create a great experience for them that guides them through their journey and communicates the value that your company can bring them. What does the first 100 days look like with your company from the customer's point of view? If the marketing team tries to do everything, they are not going to be able to do anything well enough to see that it is successful. Marketers need more time to solve more complex problems, therefore they cannot waste their time on busy work. “Marketing is salesmanship multiplied.” - Casey Slaughter Stanton Build a marketing process for making decisions internally. Establish a framework that empowers your team to make the right decisions. Career Advice from Casey Slaughter Stanton - Bet on yourself.

Social media is usually a waste of time because it often delivers soft branded messages that do not drive a real offer. If you are going to drive sales conversations, you need to lead with an offer. All marketing emails have a purpose. - If the email is not driving any action, then what is the point of sending it? Prioritize what emails and communication you are sending and measure its success to decide whether or not changes need to happen in your email marketing. You do not have to do certain marketing activities forever. - If you try something new and it is not working, then discontinue it. Your time will be better spent on other campaigns that are actually driving revenue.
