A seasoned entrepreneur who once helped grow a chain of family salons before jumping into insurance, Pete is on a mission to teach everyday people—many with zero experience—how to build seven- and eight-figure insurance agencies through his proven system. He's also the author of PNC Insurance Accelerator and creator of the Million Dollar Producer program. On this episode we talk about: * How Pete transitioned from family business to building one of Florida's fastest-growing insurance firms* The flaws of traditional insurance franchise models and how John Galt flips the script* Why independent agencies have the upper hand in today's market* Pete's “relationship-first” business model that fuels 95% of his agency's growth* How to build recurring income and financial freedom through property and casualty insurance Top 3 Takeaways 1.

Most high-performing advisors can point to someone who helped shape their success. Yet many firms still leave learning to chance, assuming experience alone will do the work. In this episode, Ray Sclafani makes the case that training is not a nice-to-have but a growth imperative for advisory firms that want to scale, retain top talent, and deliver a consistent client experience.Drawing on industry data and real-world examples from ClientWise, Ray breaks down six practical steps firm leaders can use to build a learning-driven culture. He explores how professional development plans, career planning guides, and intentional training budgets create clarity and momentum for individuals and teams. Ray also shares how firmwide training, visibility around learning milestones, and gamification can reinforce accountability and engagement across the organization.The episode closes with a discussion on balancing internal and external training, preparing the next generation of leaders, and using learning as a strategic advantage. If you want your firm to grow faster, retain great people, and multiply its impact, this episode offers a clear roadmap for making training a core part of how your business operates.Key TakeawaysFirms that prioritize training consistently outperform those that treat learning as optionalTraining must be budgeted intentionally, just like hiring, marketing, and technology investmentsFirmwide training builds culture, alignment, and shared language across teamsMaking learning visible through recognition and communication reinforces its importance internally and with clientsTraining is growth insurance that drives scalability, retention, and long-term firm valueQuestions Financial Advisors Often AskQ: Why is training essential for advisory firm growth? A: Training is a growth imperative. Firms with strong learning cultures are more productive, more innovative, more profitable, and better at retaining employees than firms that undervalue training.Q: How does training impact employee retention in advisory firms? A: According to LinkedIn's Learning Report cited in the episode, 94 percent of employees say they would stay with a company longer if it invested in helping them learn.Q: What are Professional Development Plans (PDPs)? A: PDPs are co-created plans between team members and their leaders that outline skills, competencies, and experiences needed for future roles. They are reviewed regularly and tied to measurable goals rather than treated as static HR documents.Q: Why should advisory firms budget intentionally for training? A: Research from the Association for Talent Development shows that top-performing companies spend more per employee on training and are more profitable than their peers. Training should be budgeted with the same discipline as hiring, marketing, and technology.Q: How does training support future leadership and succession planning? A: Training prepares team members to step into new roles, reduces key-person risk, and builds a pipeline of future leaders who are ready to support the firm's long-term growth.For more information click here to visit the Best in the Business Blog.

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!Want to run more without getting sidelined by cranky feet and tight calves? We walk through a real client scenario—a 20-year-old cardio diehard who stacked three five-mile runs onto a week of classes—and show how to turn enthusiasm into a durable plan. You'll hear the exact warm-ups, strength circuits, and weekly progressions we use to build mileage safely, fix plantar fasciitis flare-ups, and keep motivation high.We start with the biggest injury driver most runners ignore: sudden volume spikes. From there, we map a simple progression rule of thumb, then layer in intensity with controlled tempos once volume settles. The foundation is strength built around running's demands. Day one is hinge-focused with hip thrusts, chin-ups, and deep landmine calf raises. Day two is squat-focused with low-impact jumps, heels-elevated back squats, and core patterns that train adduction and extension. Day three turns unilateral and frontal-plane, using skater hops with stick landings, single-leg RDLs, and suitcase carries on toes to blend trunk stiffness and foot strength. Throughout, we target the plantar fascia, gastrocnemius, soleus, tibialis anterior, and peroneals so every step gets more stable.We also get practical about tools and coaching. Footwear rotation, soft tissue mobilization with a barbell or lacrosse ball, and isometrics to calm tendons when symptoms spike. For coaches and ambitious self-trainers, we dig into anatomy-driven programming, progressive overload, and the career skills that make plans stick: clear cues, on-the-fly adjustments, and confidence that comes from mastering the fundamentals. If you're chasing bigger miles, stronger glutes, and fewer setbacks, this is the blueprint to build resilient legs and a steady training rhythm.Enjoyed the conversation and want more like it?

Information access: While many have Copilot licenses, usage is low beyond basic tasks like email and meeting summaries. The main challenge with adoption is providing guidance within apps like PowerPoint, Excel, Dynamics, and Word so users can access help exactly when they need it. This is something Rehmani's company, VisualSP, and his training platform, copilottrainingpackage.com, specialize in. "I'm a big proponent of giving people 'at the moment need' information," he notes.Training paths: Copilottrainingpackage.com enables users to go down different "training paths," explains Rehmani. Specifically, there are pre-built PowerPoint training modules covering key topics like prompt creation and preventing hallucinations. Additionally, there's learning management system (LMS)-ready video content on Copilot use cases in Word, Excel, and other tools for on-demand learning. Finally, the platform offers optional live training sessions for trainers and power users to ensure effective adoption and ROI from Copilot. "At the end of the day, it's all about making Copilot into ROI and not just an expense layer."What to expect: Rehmani describes the "anatomy" of the program. It uses seven modules to teach trainers and power users how to craft effective prompts, reduce Copilot errors, and apply specific workflows for high-impact ROI. Then, participants share this knowledge internally, enabling time savings and efficiency across their organizations.End-of-year pricing: Users can take advantage of this resource with special pricing through the end of the year. Users can purchase the standalone package for $4,950 or the package and live training for $8,950, all of which could be delivered in 2026, explains Rehmani. Visit Cloud Wars for more.

We need stylists to work for us, but when new stylists just out of school that need a lot of training and support apply to work for us the overwhelm sets in. Training is a lot of time, energy, effort, and money. But when you implement a training program in your salon, it doesn't have to be so stressful and expensive. I offer new hires access to my 12 Week Training Program, which allows them to work on my 4 pillars of success: technical skills, client experience, mindset, and marketing/social media. When stylists work on these 4 pillars, they become confident stylists that are ready to take clients.

We are re-airing Doug Laux's second appearance on HBH, as we fondly remember him upon his passing:Being accepted to work at the CIA is highly difficult. The interview process is long and secretive - and applicants and their references are often vetted without ever knowing it. Once accepted, very few go on to practice espionage. That distinction is reserved for those invited to the CIA's top secret and legendary training program known as ‘The Farm'. Fewer still actually graduate the program and become Case Officers or as they are most commonly referred: Spies. HBH is excited to welcome back former CIA Case Officer Doug Laux.Before deploying abroad, or even traveling to Camp Peary - which houses ‘The Farm' somewhere deep in the forests of Virginia - Doug was required to make enormous personal sacrifices. He had to to lie to family and friends, leaving them all completely in the dark, as to what he was really doing with his life. This is all the very beginning of a CIA Case Officer's career. Doug's career at the agency was a significant one which took him to Afghanistan, Syria and other other hot zones around the world.Make sure to check out the outstanding book ‘Left of Boom' by Doug Laux and Ralph Pezzullo - and thanks for listening to Heroes Behind Headlines.Heroes Behind HeadlinesExecutive Producer Ralph PezzulloProduced & Engineered by Mike DawsonMusic provided by ExtremeMusic.com
