Quotable Moments
- “It’s more about continuous improvement, identifying and eliminating waste, and at the core for me is just adding value for your customer.” — J
- “It’s got to be a culture thing, it’s not going to be a “task.” If it’s a task, it’s not going to stick.” — K

- “If you feel like you’re being invested in, you’re going to have more investment in [your job]. — K
- “You totally underestimate how much it costs to train employees because the actual cost of training an employee is probably not that much. The cost on the business, however, is huge because you’re sucking time from whoever’s training them.” — J

Mike Michalowicz is an entrepreneur turned author who, 11 years ago, realized that he didn’t know enough about entrepreneurship. He decided to fix his lack of knowledge and, in the process, decided to write about what he learned to try to help other entrepreneurs. Today, he’s a full-time small business author.
What made him realize that he knew nothing about entrepreneurship?
He’d started and sold two “successful” business that made millions in revenue but $0 in profit. Back then, he believed that making money from a business meant building it fast and then selling it.
It worked for a while. But in the long run?
Ten companies that he’d started had all collapsed or were near collapse within six months of starting them. He evaporated his wealth, lost his home, his possessions, and everything he had except for his family.
As he processed what he’d learned, he realized that the classic formula, sales - costs = profit, was flawed.
In this podcast, you’ll hear about how Mike turned the equation on its head to put profit first. Mike explains how small businesses that operate with profit as their priority are able to actually achieve their desired level of profit.

When the Lewis brothers and their family all thought deeply about their ‘why’ and got to the core of what they desired, there was a common thread.
It wasn’t about sales volume, new machinery, bigger building; it was about people. The common thread they all share is their love for people.
This episode's conversation with Beau Lewis takes a deeper look at how focusing on the people in our business will help us to excel across the board.

If you don’t have a vision for where you are going, how do you intend to get there?
Martin Holland has devoted his last several years sharing his unique views and experiences with business owners to help reduce their stress and increase the performance of their business. In this conversation with Martin, we tackle the importance of having a clear and intentional vision. A vision draws a very long line that you should not be able to see the end of. When the line is drawn, every decision for the business reflects back to make sure it reconciles with the vision.

Brady Lewis started working for the family cabinet door business, Lewis Cabinet Specialties, years ago. However, it was early on that he noticed there was a better way to do redundant tasks, so he turned to the computer. What began as makeshift spreadsheets has evolved into an industry changing online ordering system that brings outsourcing into the modern era: AllMoxy.
AllMoxy is easily the most robust solution for component providers anywhere. But it didn't happen overnight. Our conversation with Brady digs into the journey of creating AllMoxy and how continuous improvement can help every business owner Push Thru the barriers and thrive regardless of the outside circumstances.
