Neither would be successful without the other! They go into business - to electrify Dodge muscle cars - that provide the sounds to fool the customer into thinking they're listening to a V8 while they're just hearing an electric motor spin. Did we mention this movie came out in 2011? In between the car drama, Kevin James wife is cheating on him (and he's doing a few shameful things too). Vince Vaughn is stuck in the dilemma of trying to protect his best friend while dealing with the doubt of others from his past as a gambling addict. The end result is that we get an entirely movie of hilarity and HEMI powered classic Dodges - just for fun! This movie has "real" other actors too! Winona Rider, Jennifer Connately, Channing Tatum, and Queen Latifah round out the ensemble. Even more impressive, the director was a big name too; Ron Howard! I'm telling you, in 2011 someone at Dodge saw this movie and just copied the whole thing. 14 years later, it's a realty. The new 2025 Charger is electric and has a speaker system of V8 sounds. Even better, we get a bro movie between Vince Vaughn and Kevin James. The only thing that would make it better is if it were Paul Blart Mall Cop 3! Movie Rating: 10 Corndogs!  ======================================== Welcome to the High Performance Expo!

In the third episode of the Business Operating Systems series, host Charlie Malouf welcomes back Stacey McCormick and Carl Hillesland to discuss the transformative impact of Mr. Mo, the Retail Performance team's business operating system. Introduced in late October 2021, Mr. Mo powered the Retail Performance team to achieve record results in 2022 by instilling an increased cadence of accountability and increasing trust. In this episode, Stacey and Carl walk through their approach to implementating Mr. Mo; recount the roles each of them played; discuss their healthy and vigorous debates; and review the key milestones that they achieved along the way.  They discuss the impact of measuring three main behaviors (Using 3X Tool, Draw the Room, and conducting a quality Comfort Test) to drive exponential results.   And they discuss how Mr. Mo led to several iterations and improvements of their most critical sales processes.  For instance, they have had seven different iterations of the 3X tool, and v8 is in the process of launching now.  They have retooled the Comfort Test process twice since launching Mr. Mo.  And, they have introduced multiple additions and enhancements to the C4 sales process, such as the Purposeful Reapproach.  The episode delves into how the indoctrination of Mr. Mo led to notable uplifts across the board in their Retail KPIs in 2022, including the following:       - Highest Sales per Guest (SPG) in a single year that the Company had ever had      - Highest Revenue Volume Year      - Highest Conversion Rate      - Highest Average Ticket (by far!)      - Highest Sleep SPG      - Highest Secret Sauce (effective net margin)      - Highest # of Experts Stacey describes how the impact of Mr. Mo helped them overcome a challenging economic year for the retail furniture industry in 2023.  When many other retailers were struggling or suffering through double digit declines, we experienced a record year in every single measurable KPI that we control and impact, except for one, in 2023.  That speaks to the power and impact of Mr. Mo and an established Operating System within a Company or department. Topics and takeaways in this episode include:      - Visionary - Integrator relationship      - Goal-Setting changes in terms of raising the floor of performance instead of shooting for the moon.  Instead of raising the ceiling, raise the floor.      - Burning the Boats      - Offense sells tickets      - Rising tide lifts all boats      - Business Operating System helps you get today done while keeping an eye on the long-term benefit      - Behaviors drive beliefs      - Framework for solving unknown problems when they manifest      - In reference to the October 2023 Cyber Event incident: in times of uncertainty, you need to increase your communication.        - Your leadership either creates confidence or chaos. Their adaptation of Mr. Mo facilitated leadership development and empowered employees, especially during challenges like a major cyber incident in 2023. The ethos of playing the "infinite game" in business, as per Simon Sinek, and fostering collaboration across departments were key themes explored, demonstrating the long-term success of Mr. Mo at Broad River Retail. Stacey and Carl discuss some of the books that they have read along with their Senior Retail Leadership Team that have helped shape their framework by introducing tools from EOS such as "rocks" and the rigorous L10 meeting structure, which has elevated the senior retail leadership team's understansing of the concepts within Mr. Mo.  And these books have helped them them all get on the same page.  These books include the following:  Traction: Get a Grip on Your Business by Gino Wickman: https://www.amazon.com/Traction-Get-Grip-Your-Business/dp/1936661845/    How To Be A Great Boss by Gino Wickman and René Boer: https://www.amazon.com/How-Great-Boss-Gino-Wickman/dp/1942952848/    The Infinite Game by Simon Sinek: https://www.amazon.com/Infinite-Game-Simon-Sinek/dp/073521350X   Watch Episode Two from this series here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yuHenu3l51U   Find the first two episodes on this series here: www.youtube.com/@StoriesFromTheRiver This episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/ApFNYx_wZJo   We hope you enjoy this episode and subscribe to our podcast for a new story each week.  Visit https://www.storiesfromtheriver.com for more episodes.

For the third and final episode of the Team Beadon:  Visionary/Integrator series, I had the pleasure of speaking with both CEO, Alex Beadon, and COO, Laura Marston. At the age of 9, something deep in their core brought them together – and their working relationship now is definitely the stuff Visionary/Integrator dreams are made of.They both exude extraordinary gratitude for one another's zone of genius and their shared experience offers the kind of behind-the-scenes wisdom that so many of us business builders can't get enough of. Quick overview of what we cover: Why Laura describes herself as a box, and Alex as a cloudHow Alex came to the realization that her Big Picture Dreaming needs to be respected for the Visionary/CEO WORK that it is Why Laura includes ‘Protector of Alex's Time' as central to her COO roleWhy CEOs need to be careful not to delegate away the business tasks that spark joy and creativityWho each other name as ‘The Boss'What the heck ‘Good Energy Hygiene' is (and why it's key to holding supportive space for each other)Why emotional intelligence development improves their business forecastWhat clients see as Alex's intuitive fluidity within the business is actually due to highly structured operational processes working behind the scenes What “It doesn't have to be perfect to be profitable” looks like from both Visionary + Integrator POVsALL THREE EPISODES IN THE VISIONARY / INTEGRATOR SERIES: Part 1: The Reality Behind Growing Your Business and Team with Alex BeadonPart 2: How a COO Supports a CEO (Finding Your Actual Biz Bestie) with Laura MarstonPart 3: Behind the Scenes of Two Lifelong BFFs Scaling a Business with Alex Beadon + Laura MarstonRESOURCES: Click here to join Adriane's Scalable Foundations MembershipClick here to get on the waitlist for Sustainable Growth LabClick here to work with Adriane and the Soulpreneur AgencyLET'S CONNECT: Follow Soulpreneur: @soulpreneur_coFollow Sustainable Scaling: @sustainablescaling Follow Adriane @adrianegaleaVisit the website: soulpreneur.coCONNECT WITH ALEX & LAURA: Click here for their Launch Expansion Method Training!Follow Alex: @AlexbeadonVisit their website: www.alexbeadon.com- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Alex Beadon teaches people how to strategically craft and launch online courses and membership si

Finding a second-in-command to execute the vision of a growing business may well be the most integral part on the path to sustainability.For the second installment of the Visionary/Integrator series, I interviewed an incredible ‘integrator' – COO, Laura Marston. Fair warning – Laura's episode is packed with clutch-your-pearls moments of tenderness. Her insights on what support a CEO actually needs (compared to, say, what they're asking for) are dead-on. For someone who self-proclaims, “I'm back-end, and I prefer it that way,” she absolutely nails what it takes for a CEO to thrive. Quick overview of what we cover: Why every visionary needs an integratorHow Laura transitioned from being Alex's lifelong BFF to the COO of her dreams What someone's CV indicates about their COO potential (even if it never before included the term ‘COO')Why taking on the role of COO in a start-up looks like building the plane while flying itHow Laura defines sustainability from a COO POV – aka – how long Alex's business can run…without AlexWhy Laura's role as COO sometimes makes her the Debbie Downer in the room The ways that Laura chooses to be client-facing, and how that has helped their clients find their ‘own Laura'How to pivot your business' focus…and not lose your business in the processWhy Laura insists that “giving them the space to dream” is a CEO job requirement ALL THREE EPISODES IN THE VISIONARY / INTEGRATOR SERIES: Part 1: The Reality Behind Growing Your Business and Team with Alex BeadonPart 2: How a COO Supports a CEO (Finding Your Actual Biz Bestie) with Laura MarstonPart 3: Behind the Scenes of Two Lifelong BFFs Scaling a Business with Alex Beadon + Laura MarstonRESOURCES: Click here to join Adriane's Scalable Foundations MembershipClick here to get on the waitlist for Sustainable Growth LabClick here to work with Adriane and the Soulpreneur AgencyClick here for Launch Expansion Method Training!

Alex Beadon — known to many as the ‘Launch Queen' and formerly as the ‘Instagram Stories Queen' — is also a queen of reinvention. Bursting with Big Ideas and launching businesses like no one's…well, business…this chat is an opportunity to peek behind the curtain and see just how an uber-successful boss lady operates. In the first of a three part ‘Visionary/Integrator Series' Alex shares her key insights for executing successful launches, growing your business sustainably, and leading your team. (With wit and candor, she also explains why sometimes those things happen accidentally, only via patience, and—no matter how wonderful we think they are as people—by way of letting go of those who aren't a good fit, respectively.) A heart-centered leader at her core, Alex also comes from a place of authority in all that she does, and is just one of those people who doles out wisdom in spades.Quick overview of what we cover: It's quite all right to start over…and over…and overSustainable businesses walk like this: create once, update many timesHow to inform future launches from past launches — just as we anticipate seasonal change, each launch offers energy, connection, growth in a new direction. and FUN (yes, really!)Why a strategic launch must build anticipation, buzz, and intrigue — even if you don't know exactly what it is you're launching 'til you get thereWhy terminating employees is especially hard in ‘work family' environments, and how it's also an act of genuine kindnessWhat it's really like to run a business with your lifelong BFFHow building community is the answer to every solopreneurs lonely existence, and why ‘embracing the woo' gets the right people in front of you lickety splitALL THREE EPISODES IN THE VISIONARY / INTEGRATOR SERIES: Part 1: The Reality Behind Growing Your Business and Team with Alex BeadonPart 2: How a COO Supports a CEO (Finding Your Actual Biz Bestie) with Laura MarstonPart 3: Behind the Scenes of Two Lifelong BFFs Scaling a Business with Alex Beadon + Laura MarstonRESOURCES: Click here to join Adriane's Scalable Foundations MembershipClick here to get on the waitlist for Sustainable Growth LabClick here to work with Adriane and the Soulpreneur AgencyClick here for Alex's Launch Expansion Method TrainingLET'S CONNECT: Follow Soulpreneur: @soulpreneur_coFollow Sustainable Scaling: @sustainablescaling Follow Adriane @adrianegaleaVisit the website: soulpreneur.coCONNECT WITH ALEX: Follow Alex:

Today With Debra Scarpa: Welcome to the Window Treatments for Profit podcast. Today on the show we have award-winning designer and marketing professional, Debra Scarpa of Home Designer Marketing. Debra recently joined us on the podcast to discuss common sales objections, and she is back today to share her expertise on the Visionary and Integrator relationship and how it can benefit your business. Visionaries and Integrators are wired differently, and have strengths that complement one another. Visionaries are the "what and why" and Integrators are the "how." This leads to different responsibilities and accountabilities across your business and thus, getting more done!! Pick It Apart [5:15] LuAnn and Debra discuss their roles and how they work with their partners, Vin and Ashley, in their businesses, and how the roles and relationships collaborate for better business  [16:30] Debra explains the role of the visionary [28:20] Debra explains why she gives Ashley, her employee and integrator, 51% of the voting power in business decisions [33:37] Debra defines role of integrator [38:50] LuAnn and Debra discuss healthy tensions and the baselines for the visionary and integrator relationship to function properly [45:52] Debra discusses how working with an integrator can benefit a visionary entrepreneur, and gives some tips to hiring the right person LuAnn Nigara and Debra Scarpa's Ah-Ha Moments “You don't have to be good at everything, and you shouldn't be good at everything. And you should bring team members on that are opposite from you.” – Debra Scarpa “There's no growth without risk taking—there's no expansion, there's no new ways of looking at things. And so, too much risk or risk that you can't sleep with at night—not healthy. But a little bit of risk is what everybody needs.” – LuAnn Nigara “It's a great service to your business when you spend time recognizing and understanding what your superpowers are and where your gaps are…When you identify your gaps and you can hire for those gaps—that's when the magic happens.” – LuAnn Nigara  “Stay in your superpower.” – Debra Scarpa More About Debra Scarpa: Debra Scarpa is an award-winning designer and owner of Home Designer Marketing with over 30 years in the marketing industry. Home Designer Marketing helps interior designers transform their brands to get found online, win their dream clients, & work smarter by streamlining their processes. Our team guides your business to success with custom branding, logos, websites, local SEO, social media, email marketing, and improved processes. The Power of a Visionary & Integrator Relationship Are you constantly bursting with new ideas but struggle to choose a clear path or stay focused? As a home design business owner, you're probably a Visionary. You wake up with 20 new ideas, meanwhile, you've already got a million other things on your plate so it's near impossible to implement anything new. Why is this? To put it simply, it's just how you're wired. What you need is someone entirely opposite of you on your team - remember, opposites attract! This person is called an Integrator. Visionaries and Integrators are wired completely different and have strengths that complement one another. Visionaries are the "what and why" and Integrators are the "how." This leads to different responsibilities and accountabilities across your business and thus, getting more done!!

This relationship is an integral part of the organization's success. This episode is Part 2 of a 2-part conversation with Mark C. Winters, co-author of Rocket Fuel and the foremost expert and Visionary/Integrator relationship. If you haven't listened to part 1 of this episode, go do that now. In part 1 of this 2-part conversation, Mark and I focused on the dynamics between a Visionary and an Integrator. What wasn't shared in that episode is that great Integrators are RARE. Mark and his team at Rocket Fuel University™ discovered there are 4 Visionaries for every 1 Integrator. This means really good Integrators are hard to find…and even harder to keep. If you want to learn where to look for your integrator, and more importantly, the principles for keeping them happy and effective, watch this video. Episode Highlights: -Where to find great Integrators both inside and outside your organization -The necessary 3 part process for successfully onboarding an integrator so they quickly earn team respect and don't burn out -5 Rules to follow to ensure a long-term relationship thrives between the Visionary and the Integrator -The way to maintain equality in the relationship even when it's not equal ownership -The difference between Visionaries and “Idea People” and how the latter is not actually very beneficial to a company -What happens when either the Visionary or the Integrator outgrows the role?

This relationship is an integral part of the organization's success. The Visionary/Integrator relationship is one I hear a lot of business owners wrestling with. Here is why - A lot of you likely fall on the visionary end of the spectrum. You have a head full of ideas and a heart full of passion. You took the entrepreneurial leap and gave birth to what would become the business you own and lead today. You saw opportunities where others didn't and you have a natural ability to see what you COULD build. But here's the thing. Visionaries can wreck companies. It's possible to have too much vision and too many ideas. A Visionary can easily rip their team in a million directions or load them down with an unreasonable number of projects. Visionaries are also typically pretty terrible with holding accountability. And your business pays for that. The answer is to find an integrator. But Just because you find an integrator, doesn't mean your business will thrive. The Visionary/Integrator relationship is like a marriage. And just like a marriage needs frameworks, habits, and methods of communication that will set it up for a shot at long-term success, so does the relationship between a visionary and an integrator. Click the links below to hear from Mark Winters, the co-author of Rocket Fuel: The One Essential Combination That Will Get You More of What You Want from Your Business. Mark shares the frameworks you'll need to set up to successfully navigate the waters of one of the business's most powerful relationships. Episode Highlights: - The visionary/integrator dynamic and why it can lead to friction or harmony depending on the relationship - The character traits of the visionary and the integrator and why you typically won't be both - Why does not everyone wants to be the visionary, and why the integrator role is so important - The benefits to a business that has both roles as opposed to a business that only has one or the other leading the team - The amount of Visionary 'Juice' that a business needs and why a business will die when they have too much vision - 4 ‘Readiness Signs' a visionary be aware of that will tell them it's time to go and find an integrator Watch the episode on PCA Overdrive PCA Overdrive is free for members.

Andy Atkins and Sue Straw of 730 Eddy Studios share the value Same Page Meetings™ bring to their business and their Visionary/Integrator™ relationship.

Pat Gillespie and Rachel Michaud of Gillespie Group dig into how they found freedom to thrive as a Visionary/Integrator™ team.

This week's Misfit Entrepreneur is Casey Cavell. Casey is a serial entrepreneur that started his first business at 21 and then went on to start, buy, or invest in over two dozen businesses over the last 15 years, worth over $17 million. Because of his success and selling some of his businesses, he followed his passion to help other entrepreneurs by creating Legacy 4:12 an entrepreneurial team of advisors, mentors, investors, and experts who are called to serve the growth-minded entrepreneur. If that is not enough, Casey has been an investor, advisor, and influential figure in the NFT community, assisting project founders and community leaders. Casey is a member of the Bored Ape Yacht Club, VeeFriends, Gutter Cat Gang, and several other high-profile NFT communities. This is one of those interviews where we can cover the whole realm of the entrepreneur spectrum and I look forward to doing just that. www.Legacy412.com (Free workshop) Casey grew up with an entrepreneur father seeing the freedom that his dada had. But, he also saw the ups and downs. He knew he could learn from his dad's experience, so he studied them and got the entrepreneur bug. Casey went to college to play baseball, but got hurt and decided to play and compete in Texas Hold'Em. He studied the game and starting out lost his money. But, realized that the game is really about longevity and the longer you can stay in, the easier it is to win. You are not playing against the casino, you are playing against other players, so your odds are better. It's the same in business. If you develop a good strategy and surround yourself with the right people, you can succeed. He went to do very well playing Hold'Em and became the youngest player in the World Series of Poker. But he realized he didn't want to work for money – he wanted his money to work for him. So, he started investing in businesses. As Casey says, he is a “turnaround guy.” He takes businesses that need to improve their systems and processes and works with them. He did that heavily for about a 10 year period and in 2011, he was able to exit one of his businesses and follow a passion to own a sport business. He bought a franchise called DBat in Atlanta, Ga. He did it buy simplifying the business model, taking care of his customers and taking care of his employees. But he got burned out. He was doing everything and needed to remove himself from the day to day. It was at this time that he learned about the EOS Model and found an integrator to partner and help him run the business. This allowed them really scale and spend less time in the business. At the 7:30 mark, we talk about the EOS model and the importance of the Visionary/Integrator duo. How were you able to start, buy, build and run 20 businesses over 15 years? He learned from others. He knew what he wanted and found others that had it asking them how to they did and putting the information into action. He is gifted at simplifying a business and used that to his advantage. He paid people for advice as well. Any type of business that you gravitate to more than others? He did really good with his baseball and softball academies because he took what was complex and simplified them. Find out what you are the best at and how it relates to making money. The businesses he works with a hypergrowth minded. They want to be the best at what they do. They have a business model built, but they need help in optimizing it and Casey brings that expertise. How do you find your businesses that you buy or invest in? Find those that access to the people you are looking for and network with them. Casey uses an example of someone who wanted to buy a plumbing business and was talking to individual plumbing companies. Casey advised them to go to the head of local trade group/association for plumbers and talk to them letting them know that they are looking to buy. Once you have invested in or bought a business, besides the EOS framework, are there any other processes or systems you have found that are important to implement? EOS gives you about 30% of what you need. The foundation. Is very important to build a great culture. There is a company out there called Giant Worldwide that does a lot of culture building activities and Casey has taken some things from them like the 5 Voices. He also uses Kolbe assessments. Businesses are about people. And the better you understand yourself and who you are, the better you are going to be to understand others and relate and communicate. Get a coach that mentors you to be a better you. What is the reason most businesses fail? They run out of money, or they burn out and give up. Sometimes people are not ready and try to do it on their own. The pros have coaches. Everyone needs somebody to help them in becoming better. Thoughts on the long game? People are either spending their time working on things that they are good at, but don't like doing of like doing but not good at. The key to succeed as an entrepreneur is to get out of doings you don't like, even if you are good at it. If you don't you will burn out. 70/30 is the balance. 70% of your time doing the things you are good at and like doing. 30% on what you don't like. At some point you will need to hire the complementary person. Building a team is one of the most important things you can do. Talk to us about what we should know? A lot of entrepreneurs put the keys to a business in the hands of those that are not ready to drive it. Think about if you had a million-dollar business…now imagine, it is a million dollar car. Would you hand the keys to a new driver and let them take it? No. You would want someone with proven experience. If they don't have the experience, they don't know and can be reckless, etc. Hire people with different skills set s that compliment yours. EOS has 2 key roles, the Visionary and the Integrator. The visionary dreams big and set the big milestones. The integrator builds the systems to help them get there and keeps things on track. Which one are you? You want people thinking as owners or that have some bit of ownership at least at your leadership level, but preferably all levels. Step by step process to position a business to stand out? Get your niche that you will be the best in the world at. Simplify that offering to be able to deliver and scale. Simple scales, complex fails. Know you target market. Who are you serving? Don't go wide, go deep. How does a business create the unique offer that gets people in the door? Who do you help? Do what? So, that what? If you can answer those questions and dial them in, you will find the offer presents itself. How does an entrepreneur remove themselves from a business? Every quarter write 2-3 things you are currently that you do not want to by the end of the quarter. Then look at who in the business it makes more sense for them to do or outsource to. Or does a hire need to be made and needs done to put the hire in place. Look at things in terms of your time and money. What are you worth per hour and can you deploy yourself to focus more on the highest price per hour duties. If so, taking the lower cost duties off your plate and giving to someone else so you can focus will generate the revenue to easily pay for giving up the other duties. What other lessons can share from your entrepreneur journey? Learn to hire well and put in a good process. People are your biggest asset. Make sure your roles and responsibilities are clear. Track your data. Have KPIs that help track your performance to your goals that are tracked weekly. What surprised you the most on your journey to this point? Casey has made a lot good decisions and a lot of poor decisions. There are a lot of woulda, coulda, shoulda's, in life. It's ok. You are where you are in life because that is where you are supposed to be. Take to self-reflect and learn. ​ What is your best advice for entrepreneurs just starting out? Ask those that have succeeded what they have done. How did you do it? Then learn and put that into action for yourself.   Best Quote: People are either spending their time working on things that they are good at, but don't like doing, or like doing but not good at. The key to succeed as an entrepreneur is to get out of doings you don't like, even if you are good at it. If you don't you will burn out.   Casey's Misfit 3: Have a written vision for your life. Share it with others. Have a written vision for your family. Share it with your family. Have a written vision for your business. Share it with business partners and team members.   Show Sponsors Ecom Automation Gurus (15% Discount on all services) www.EcomAutomationGurus.com Check out Silver Mountain Resources as a potential Silver investment play.

Are you a visionary or an integrator in your business? A visionary is a person who holds a big dream in the business. The integrator is the person behind creating all the systems in the business. I have been so blessed to have a great integrator. Pete and I started the business together. I am the guy behind the ideas and figuring out sales and marketing. On the other hand, Pete is the systems kind of person. He makes sure everything flows. In this episode, I will share the differences between an integrator and a visionary, how to have a fantastic business relationship with your partner, and what you can do if you are running a one-person show and need either an integrator or a visionary. Also, I will recommend two amazing books that you should all learn to understand the role of integrator and visionary better. Listen and learn. Key Talking Points of the Episode: [00:46] My partnership with Pete [02:53] The role of an integrator in business [03:49] How to succeed in partnerships [06:28] How we do the visionary integrator in our business [07:28] Is the CEO the visionary or the integrator? [08:02] The integrators role [14:05] Getting an integrator when you are a one-man show Quotes from the Episode: “The integrator is the person that take chaos and turn it into control.” “If you have a business partner, you've got to make sure you stay in your lane.” “The visionary is the one who creates culture. They create client relationships. They look at the big picture. They have ideas all the time that they bring to the team.” “The challenge with an integrator is they would go out of business because they would have no inbound business.” “If you cannot figure out how to monetize your business, meaning marketing and sales, you're going out of business.” Resources Mentioned in the Episode: Traction- Gino Wickman Rocket Fuel- Gino Wickman

One of the defining characteristics of the Visionary's and the Integrator's roles is courage. It takes courage to bring a dream into reality, and it takes courage to create a process that creates change for every person in an organization.

In this episode, I sit down with Chelsea Matthews, founder of Catalyst Physical Therapy and Performance in Nashville. We dig into what it really takes to build a cash practice from scratch, especially when you are wired more like a visionary than an integrator. From bartending with zero business background to building a gym-based PT practice that is moving toward 90 percent digital, Chelsea shares her journey, her systems (and mistakes), and how she is learning to scale without burning out.   We also talk about niching down into runners, CrossFitters, and how to stay focused when you have a million ideas but not enough time.  

Lori Semke is the Executive Director at Mis Amigos Spanish Immersion Preschool in Minnesota. She joins the show to share her game-changing strategies on weathering the storm as a team during tough times, why dedication and intention in enrollment really do make the difference, and what it is like working as a part of a Visionary/Integrator team with her schools owner and previous guest Dawn Uribe. Lori also shares her experience taking home the Director of the Year Award this past October at The Child Care Success Summit™ and how that honor has inspired her mission even further.  Key Takeaways: [1:09] Mis Amigos is a Spanish Immersion Preschool and currently has three locations in Minnesota. [2:44] Lori has been the Executive Director at Mis Amigos since 2012 and worked before in the legal field as a litigator along with three years at the non-profit Children’s Law Center of Minnesota. While at the non-profit, it was apparent that she had a passion for both helping children and using her law background, which she gets to do plenty of both in her position at Mis Amigos.  [5:07] Lori won the Director of the Year 2019 Award at The Child Care Success Summit™ this past October. Judging by the nominations that came flooding into Kris’s inbox, Lori is very well-loved by her team. [8:11] Lori wears many hats as the Executive Director, including enrollment, working with vendors and HR, and carrying out the visions for growth and expansion. She has to be focused both on the day-to-day and the larger picture. [12:53] It really moves the needle when you have one person focused on enrollment. Whether it’s an Enrollment Director or Specialist, they can make sure every step is well-thought-out and executed. [19:02] Families need to feel that they are wanted and that their enrollment is appreciated and welcomed. This is where a great leader needs to communicate with the team from the top down so they know exactly how to provide that concierge-type experience. [30:48] No matter how strong a team is, they will go through some challenging times together. This is where communication is key, so everyone can know what the plan is and their individual roles in keeping things balanced and healthy. [36:18] The team at Mis Amigos has greatly benefited from sharing their guidance as leaders and acting as mentors to help one another. [43:02] To Lori, a child care rockstar is someone that has overcome challenges despite obstacles, and remains to have a large passion for what they do. They are motivated to grow and love creating incredible experiences for those along their path.   Mentioned in This Episode: Kris Murray The Child Care Success Company Child Care Success Academy Child Care Success Summit — offering $1 ticket Grow Your Center Mis Amigos Spanish Immersion Preschool Mis Amigos Facebook Ep 34: “Giving Children the World with Dawn Uribe”

Today on the podcast, I have Mike Frommelt the Founder and CEO of Keystone Search. Mike has been featured in Gino Wickman’s book Rocket Fuel because of his tenure helping companies hire their top-level executives and more importantly their replacement (this could be the title of Pres ident / GM / COO / or Visionary / Integrator as EOS refers to it). If you have thought about what it would be like to replace yourself from the day to day (i.e. your role not your ownership) and don’t know where to start, then this episode is for you. Whether you have a $1M business or $100M business and your goal is more freedom from the day to day, or are looking for ways to decouple yourself for an exit years down the road, it’s a HUGE decision to find your successor. If done wrong, all the anxieties about the subject and horror stories you play in your head could come true BUT if you do it right and take the time to learn what you need to do BEFORE you make any decisions then true magic can happen. Not only for your personal life BUT also for the business. You will have a more valuable company that gives you the freedom and time to think, plan your long-term strategies while only working in the parts of the business that give you energy. One of the MOST important things you can do to build a more valuable company AND give yourself more freedom is find someone to replace your role and transfer the tribal knowledge that you have in your head. What you will learn: Where to start the journey when you are ready to replacement for your day to day role How to determine whether you have your replacement internally or if you need to find someone from outside the company How to separate your ownership role from your day to day working role How to figure out how much visionary vs integrator your replacement needs to have What qualities a president of a company should have What the resume should look like of someone t The opportunity cost of replacing your role How to pay a president and different compensation structures you should think about The process to find, court and onboard a president How to discuss hiring your replacement with your executive team Quotes: “The first place that I like to start is making sure that I understand and they understand what it is that they’re really doing in the business.” - Mike Frommelt “You want to incentify [the leadership team] to grow the business while you’re doing what you want to do, whether you’re becoming the chairman of the board or you’re on a beach somewhere.” – Mike Frommelt “This is not about putting yourself out to pasture.” – Ryan Tansom “I think that if you have too much operational and you leave the magic of the visionary aside, things can implode, which I think a lot of people will also see.” – Ryan Tansom “Choices, choices, choices equals freedom, freedom, freedom.” - Ryan Tansom The Takeaway: One of the MOST important things you can do to build a more valuable company AND give yourself more freedom is find someone to replace your role and transfer the tribal knowledge that you have in your head (this doesn’t mean you have to go out to pastor or become irrelevant, just that you have transferred your knowledge and the company’s reliance on you so you can have the freedom to work in the areas of the business that give you energy AND have more options to do what you want with the bus

We learn from our two guests today how having the right Visionary and Integrator at the head of your leadership team gives you the rocket fuel (to use the phrase coined by Mark C. Winters) to go to the stars, and how smaller startups can find the right Integrator. Our two guests, Michael Eagle and Kirk Potter, make up the Visionary/Integrator dynamic duo at Rhythm Monster (www.Rhythm-Monster.com), a platform dedicated to teaching Scottish Pipe Band drumming online. In the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) (EOS Worldwide) framework for growing a business successfully that I help my clients implement, the two roles at the top that give any organization the "rocket fuel" it needs to go to the stars, are the Visionary (often the CEO) and the Integrator (often the COO or General Manager). In this episode, we learn from a Visionary and an integrator, *together* what they consider to be their own strengths and weaknesses and specifically how the other's strengths complement their own skills to super-charge their business - i.e., how the whole they create together is far greater than the sum of the parts. We also cover how Rhythm Monster solved the classic Catch-22 dilemma: you can't scale successfully without an Integrator and you can't afford an Integrator till after you've successfully scaled. 

Hive Revenue CEO, Adam Strange, talks about the Visionary / Integrator marriage and how EOS can help you turn around a business that seems too far gone.

I want to tell you a story about a failure of mine with a client. It was sort of a mutual failure… of each other. I was hired as mostly virtual assistant to help a realtor with their social media …. or more precisely, to help them build their online platform.

In this Organizing Chaos episode, I talk about the power of the "Same Page" or Visionary/Integrator meeting and exactly how you can start having them.

If you want to watch someone build a legacy in real time, simply pay attention to what Kent Clothier is doing in his life and with his business. Kent is the founder and CEO of Real Estate Worldwide (REWW), where he leads an amazing team of individuals that are focused on building disruptive systems, software and techniques that help real estate investors and professionals achieve astounding success in less time. In 2015, Kent became the only family to have FOUR businesses on the Inc 5000 List of Fastest Growing Companies. And for the past 2.5 years I was proud to be a part of that growth, helping to direct the marketing strategies, campaigns and operations during a very high-growth period in his company. Kent started off as a client of mine, became a friend, and then a business partner, but most importantly a valuable mentor in my life as well. I think of him as a "Friend-tor." So in this episode, which has been 2 years too late, I wanted to dig in deeper and ask Kent questions that I might not already know the answer to and help pull out the advice he has for entrepreneurs, whether they are in real estate or any industry. You'll hear how Kent started off in business in his early 20's trading groceries for a profit and built that business, and the business that acquired it, into a $2 billion a year industry-leader. This put millions of dollars into his pocket before he was 30 years old. And you'll hear how a bold but stupid move caused him to lose everything he had within a year only to rebuild his fortune bigger and better in the real estate industry, systematically dominating every market he entered using a principle called "Reverse Wholesaling" that he learned in the grocery business. Most importantly, you'll hear Kent's unwavering focus on what's important in his life, maximizing every moment with his family and friends, very consciously designing his life the way he wants it and encouraging others to do to the same with his message that "The Time Is Now" Here are some of the highlights from this episode: What is Real Estate wholesaling and how does it work? What is holding people back from success? The importance of mindset. Facing the reality of time. It is reckless and irresponsible to act like you have all the time in the world. You don’t. Fighting for your dream. Paying for your time. Mundane things, in business and in your personal life, need to be done. Paying someone for an hour of work is paying for an hour of your time to do whatever you need to do – spend time with family, exercising, relaxing, etc. Is it worth it to spend a large amount of money on something like a business coach or consultant? The benefits of a Visionary/Integrator relationship. Kent benefited from having a lot of mentors over the years. Do you have a mentor? Opportunities in Wholesaling and Real Estate. You can contact Kent on Facebook, www.KentClothier.com or www.REWW.com. Kent is also starting a podcast soon, so keep an eye out for it. Did you enjoy the show? Do you have any book recommendations?
