You’ve heard me say it on the podcast over and over… business is hard enough, don’t try and do everything on your own. Find people that can help you get where you want to go. Nearly every successful business owner I know has used the power of other people’s experience and knowledge to grow their business. Too many entrepreneurs are struggling unnecessarily because they are trying to do it all on their own. This episode is not scripted and admittedly, this episode doesn’t have the same energy as others. It’s just me talking to you about the power of mentors, how to find them and what makes a good mentor.

On this week’s podcast, we’re welcoming back Justin Bartley, owner of Next Door and Windows, a company he started in the Chicago area in 2002.
Like most entrepreneurs, Justin worked long hours and very rarely took real time off. He has heard me say that your business exists to give you MORE LIFE, not less. And, part of this is taking time off, away from your business.
On this episode, we talk about how Justin went from working 70 to 80 hours a week for 10 years to taking 133 days off. We talk about what a real free day is, and Justin shares details about the changes he had to make in his business in order to make these free days happen.

Today I’m switching things up a bit. Instead of a regular podcast with a special guest, I’m sharing a webinar I recently did regarding how to get leads during the summer. In fact, the information can be used at any time of year when business slows down, including who you need to target first when that happens.
The message involves many tried-and-true strategies including Dan Kennedy’s “Results Triangle” that every smart business owner should familiarize themselves with and then utilize in their business. In this webinar, I will also go over some very compelling sample offers you can tailor to use in your own marketing efforts.
If you have any questions after listening to the webinar – or would like additional information regarding one or more of our products - I invite you to contact me.

On this episode of The Wealthy Contractor Podcast is Victor Smolyanov, owner of Victor’s Roofing in southeast Michigan.
When Victor climbed onto his first roof at age 13, he was instantly hooked. His father, Vladimir, was a roofer and put Victor to work to encourage him to take school more seriously and pursue a college degree instead of following in his footsteps.
But that plan backfired because Victor loved every minute of it. He went on to build a business that focuses on residential roofing, gutters, and attic insulation and employs more than 50 people.
After making a number of poor hiring choices, he shares the things he’s learned about employing the right people and having proper systems in place. Listen carefully as we follow his interesting journey to success and what he’s learned along the way that got him off the roof.
