Transcribed with Cockatoo

(Speaker 8)
Play, my honor, my honor to be on your show. And thank you for all you do.

(Speaker 3)
I hear the ripple effects from you are good ripple effects.

(Speaker 16)
You know what I mean?

(Speaker 8)
People rave about what they learn from you. So congratulations.

(Speaker 5)
Sean, guess what’s happening on June 5th and 6th right here in Tulsa, Russia. We are probably gonna have an amazing business conference

(Speaker 11)
here at Tulsa, Russia.

(Speaker 5)
Yes, we’re joined by Tim Tebow. Tim Tebow is going to be joining us right here at the Thrive Time Show World Headquarters June 5th and 6th. He’s a very successful football player, obviously a Heisman Award winner, but he’s also a very successful entrepreneur. Now, when you work with real clients, Sean, real clients you really work with to help them grow their companies. Do you ever hear a business owner tell you that they didn’t have time to get something done? Every day.

(Speaker 5)
How often is not having enough time a problem for business owners? All the time. It’s almost, it’s like maybe 90% of the issues as people are trying to grow their company. Well, Tim Tebow is going to come join us here at the in-person Thrive Time Show two-day interactive business workshop, and he’s gonna teach us time management and his approach to personal self-discipline

(Speaker 5)
and getting things done. Also at the workshop, I’ll put up on the website so people can see it here. Also at the two-day interactive workshop, Sean, we are going to be, oh, there it is. We’re gonna be teaching accounting, systems creation,

(Speaker 5)
marketing, human resources, how to hire, inspire, train and retain great people, accounting, social media advertising, search engine optimization. Sean, what’s the area where most clients ask you for help the most? Is it generating leads?

(Speaker 5)
Is it hiring people? What’s the biggest issue that most business owners have by default before they come to one of our workshops? Well, I think it’s management because time is the most valuable resource for these business owners and being able to manage their time is the first thing. Once they get that under control, then generally the numbers, you know, being

(Speaker 5)
able to track their business and be able to make the best decisions based on numbers rather than emotions is a big area. And we teach all of this stuff at the business conference, particularly you, Clay, you love to hammer on time management.

(Speaker 11)
It’s my favorite part of the conference.

(Speaker 5)
Now I’m going to pull this up real quick here, cause we’re going to go through, if you’re not excited, I want to get you excited about what we’re going to cover at the workshop here.

(Speaker 23)
Okay.

(Speaker 5)
The two day interactive workshop. This is my 20th year hosting workshops. So I’m telling you folks, we’re in rare form here. So one is the idea of establishing your revenue goals. I think most entrepreneurs don’t know their revenue goals. Would you agree or am I off my rocker? No, that’s totally a very important point we do with every one of our new clients that come on board is we have to establish the revenue goals. And generally speaking, we have a vague idea, but not an exact

(Speaker 5)
idea that can be engineered down into like the daily goals for sales. And so that’s a really big one. Now, next is the break even numbers. What kind of sales do you have to do to even break even? Yeah. Third is how many hours per week do you want to work? You know, what is your ideal schedule as an entrepreneur? Box number four, how do you stand out in the clutter of commerce? What makes your company unique from all the different businesses in a world of brown cows, herds of brown cows, proverbial brown cows, the analogy of brown cows?

(Speaker 5)
How can you be the purple cow that stands out? How can you be the squeaky wheel that gets the oil? Box number five, branding. How do you improve the perception that people have of you, your business, your brand? Box number six, marketing, your three-legged marketing stool. What is a turnkey way for you and your company to generate leads so you can succeed? Because if you don’t have any leads, your business will bleed. If you can’t sell, your

(Speaker 5)
business will go to hell. You’ve got to generate leads. Sean, how often do business owners by default tell you they have a hard time generating leads? It’s almost all of the time. It’s really a huge struggle. And many times they may be creating leads, but just through word of mouth.

(Speaker 5)
So they get to a point where we’ve implemented systems and then they need to create more leads, but they’ve never had to do it. So there’s a lot of different scenarios where business owners are like, how do you create leads? Something we hammer on at the conference a lot. Box number seven, box number seven, create a sales conversion system. Again, box number seven, create a sales conversion system, sales scripts, recorded calls, one

(Speaker 5)
sheets, pre-written emails, lead trackers, all of the sales tools, the sales print pieces, the one sheets, the big screens that you see inside the business, whether you’re a doctor, you’re a dentist, you’re a lawyer, you gotta have sales systems in place. We help you with that. Box number eight, what does it cost you

(Speaker 5)
to get another customer? Step number eight, what does it cost you to actually acquire a customer? Step number nine, it’s hard to build organization if you’re not organized. We’re gonna teach you how to create repeatable systems, processes, file organization.

(Speaker 5)
Box number 10, we’re gonna teach you how to manage people, real people on the planet Earth. This just in, we’re gonna teach you how to manage real people on the planet Earth. Box number 11, how to create a sustainable schedule that works for you and your family.

(Speaker 5)
Step number 12, how to create human resources systems for recruiting, hiring, training, and retaining great people. Box number 13, accounting. This just in, we have to cover accounting. It’s not how much you make, it’s how much you keep. We’re going to cover all the accounting things you need to know. And step 14, finally, what is the point of even achieving success? We’re going to go over the, what is the point of even achieving success? How to design a life that you’re excited about, how to design a life where you carve out enough time for your faith, your family, your finance, your fitness, your friendship, your fun, and

(Speaker 5)
where you’re going to spend your focused time. We’re going to go through that, all this and more. Now the workshop, Sean, it’s June 5th and 6th. It’s a two-day interactive workshop. And tickets, we always do it. It’s $250 or whatever price that someone can afford. Sean, why do we let people name their price? Why do we have scholarship tickets available

(Speaker 5)
if somebody can’t afford the $250 general admission ticket?

(Speaker 11)
Well, we don’t want anybody to miss out on it. You know, you could be at a startup phase or you could be, you know, way along in your business, but we want to make it accessible for everybody. I think it actually goes back too to a story of your dad. And like, it goes all the way back to how you’ve always done this as a business coach, trying to make sure that you know,

(Speaker 11)
you’re just your average people out there have access to the things that work.

(Speaker 5)
Now 7 a.m. to 5, Sean, why don’t we go from 7 to 5 both days? I mean, it’s 10 hours a day, 20 hours of training over two days. Why do we do 10 hours a day, Sean, of back to back workshops? We do a 30 minute teaching session, we do a 15 minute question and answer session, and

(Speaker 5)
then we take a break. 30 minutes of teaching, 15 minutes of question and answer, then we take a break. Why do we do that format, Sean? That format is so that we can keep people engaged and not just sitting there listening, but also getting involved. We really encourage people to ask questions, and that’s really where the juiciness of the

(Speaker 5)
conference comes out, is you can put your personal situation and your questions on the board and Clay will tee off and give you direct advice. Even without being in our coaching program, you can get direct coaching from Clay. It’s really a very engaging format.

(Speaker 11)
I enjoyed a lot.

(Speaker 5)
Sean, final 60 seconds pop quiz here. What date is the conference? June 5th and 6th, 2025, this year. Question number two, who’s our keynote speaker coming to the conference there, Sean? Tim Tebow is our keynote speaker. Sean, question number three, how much does it cost to come to our in-person,

(Speaker 5)
two-day interactive business workshop right here in Tulsa, Oklahoma? I think it’s, did you say it’s $250 or whatever you can afford? That’s right, $250 or whatever you can afford. Sean, how do you spell Eric Trump backwards? P-U-R-T-C-I-R-E. That took a long time. I’ll have to listen to this. All right, again, that’s Sean Lohman. I’m Clay Clark, inviting you to come join us at the in-person Thrive Time Show,-day interactive workshop June 5th and 6th right

(Speaker 5)
here in Tulsa, Russell Tulsa, Oklahoma. Sean, I really am I’m excited to have this event. I’m excited to see you at the event June 5th and 6th right here in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Tim Tebow, baby!

(Speaker 22)
It’s Tebow time. Oh yeah. Tulsa, Russell. You could be anywhere doing a lot of different things but you chose to be here. Clay Clark is here somewhere. Where’s my buddy Clay? Yes, Clay Clark!

(Speaker 14)
Clay!

(Speaker 13)
Clay’s the greatest. I met his goats today. I met his dogs. I met his chickens. I saw his compound. He’s like the greatest guy in there.

(Speaker 21)
I ran from his goats, his chickens, his dogs.

(Speaker 13)
So this guy’s like the greatest marketer

(Speaker 10)
you’ve ever seen right his entire life Clay Clark his entire life is marketing hey guys Luke Erickson here with the Thrive Time Show as you can see behind me we’ve got all kinds of energy going on people are starting to show up for the conference and it is hot in this place we got grill guns over here we’ve got people playing the drums, we’ve got a fire breather and man people are so excited as they come in. The conference has kicked off, this house is packed. We’ve got Aaron Andis with shop rooms up there. We’ve got Steve Curry, Tim,, Total Ending Concepts up there. Talking about what is possible when you just implement, when you implement, when you do the improvements.

(Speaker 10)
It’s so exciting. People are going crazy. Guys, Luke Erickson with the Thrive Time Show here with you. It is day two and the energy is high. People are so excited to be showing up. The team is ready. Come on, let’s see what it’s like to go on in for day two.

(Speaker 14)
Follow me. Come on, come on. Woo! Woo! Woo!

(Speaker 10)
I’ll tell you what, people are so excited to be here for day two. It is going to be incredible. I cannot wait to see what today has in store. Right now, here at the conference, we’ve broken into groups going over search engine optimization. I know for most of us, myself included, if you hear that term, you go, what is that?

(Speaker 10)
What does that mean?

(Speaker 20)
That’s too techy for me.

(Speaker 10)
Well, our experts are breaking it down for people so that you can clearly understand how to come up top in Google.

(Speaker 20)
It’s doable.

(Speaker 19)
It’s possible.

(Speaker 10)
Now we’re in the middle of a break and what we like to do is we like to give you as much tangible and relevant information from about the start of the hour for 45 minutes. Then we take approximately a 15 minute break to allow people to connect with other entrepreneurs around them. Bathroom break and also use this time to just really digest all of the good information that you’re receiving the whole time. Right behind me we’ve got Bob with his grill gun melting an ice sculpture. It is

(Speaker 10)
awesome. The ice sculpture represents our life right? It’s here for a, but we all need to have the sense of urgency to implement the things that we’re learning so that we can make the most of the time that we have.

(Speaker 7)
I heard about it on the podcast. Started listening to the podcast, became a fan, and then figured out about the workshop. I own an insurance and financial services agency. And I was hoping to learn from the workshop systems and processes. I’m big on systems and processes and always learning better ways to run a business more efficiently. The atmosphere is second to none. It’s a high energy, really cool atmosphere to be around. Contagious, I would say.

(Speaker 7)
Just something every entrepreneur, I think, would appreciate and love. I’d say humorous, high energy, and full of substance, which I think is the key. A lot of business coaches or seminars maybe are high on motivation and making you feel good, but don’t have a lot of business coaches or seminars maybe are high on motivation and making you feel

(Speaker 7)
good but don’t have a lot of substance that you can take back and implement the following Monday where his does. Man, there’s a lot of valuable things. I’m going to say like I came to this is my second workshop. The first workshop I took back really the importance of a group interview. I used to spend hours and hours interviewing people, screening resumes, and that saving my time on that

(Speaker 7)
part is valuable. It was that and then the sales scripting that have been two major things just so far. Man, I think they’re missing out on, you know, expert advice from somebody who’s been there, done that, built companies, has learned a lot of lessons. That’s what I’m always looking for, is somebody that I can learn from, that’s ahead of where I am.

(Speaker 7)
And I think if you choose not to come, you’re missing out on a lot of good advice that could help your business.

(Speaker 3)
Hi, this is Charles and Amber Kolaw. We’re the owners of Kolaw Fitness. We heard about Clay Clark through Paul Hood, our CPA. We’ve worked with Clay Clark for the last two years. Clay Clark has helped us take our three locations in three different states and create checklists, workflows, task lists, time blocks for every employee.

(Speaker 3)
He’s helped us with creating systems and audits for every department, quantitative scorecards for each department and every position so that everybody has a number. It’s been able to give us a lot of time freedom and financial freedom and peace of mind to know that everything’s running efficiently and he’s been helpful with a lot of marketing, search engine optimization, helping us really rank high in Google, and pretty much every area of the business.

(Speaker 3)
It’s been very, very helpful.

(Speaker 12)
We would describe the experience of working with Clay as very energetic. He’s full of energy. He’s very encouraging, very motivating, but also accountable. So he keeps us accountable, and we love that accountability. It keeps our drive in the right direction so we’re not chasing things that aren’t worth spending our time on.

(Speaker 3)
He’s a great coach. He helps push us on certain areas, helps coaches in certain areas. You know, we’re all emotional creatures and we go up and down and he actually will tell us kind of where we’re at, how we can get from there and even like emotionally like we’re stressed about something you’ll have a story to relate to and it really helps us in every area of our

(Speaker 12)
business. It’s been very very helpful. I think Clay’s ability to have a whole team behind him that help him with all of his clients, all his coaching clients is that it allows Clay to do what he’s really good at, and that’s working one-on-one with the client and coaching them. And then he can have his amazing staff come in

(Speaker 4)
and help you accomplish all these goals that you’re setting.

(Speaker 3)
And of course, he has all these resources, whether it’s videographers or whether it’s web developers, that they can quickly jump on your project, knock things out. He can quickly give you the right coaching. He’s just got a whole team of people that whatever area you’re lacking in, in your own company, he’s got resources from like video, web design, search engine guys who are just

(Speaker 3)
knowledgeable in that. Even though he knows a lot of that stuff, he’s got who are just knowledgeable in that. Even though he knows a lot of that stuff, he’s got these capable lieutenants that are ready to just take off and help you get that stuff done. More stuff gets done on a weekly basis than you would on probably most…

(Speaker 18)
Individual.

(Speaker 3)
Yeah, than an individual or some other… We’ve worked with several companies before, and just not as many things get done on a weekly basis. It’s been very helpful. Well the conferences for me, I’m a slow learner so I have to learn like over and over again, hear things over and over again. I’ve been to like I think eight different conferences and each time you come I learn a few new

(Speaker 3)
components. Some things are repetitive but a lot of the stuff just resettles and I get a little bit more depth into each component. So I mean I’ve been to eight of them, they’re all super entertaining, he’s very funny, very encouraging. You get to kind of self-reflect a lot, a lot of the stuff is really polarizing, you do a personal inventory of yourself and you’ll think like, hey I’ve really got to work on this, really got to work on that. So every time you come I still get a lot of value out of it. And as much as every conference is the same, it’s totally different.

(Speaker 12)
So I think we’ll hear stories we haven’t heard before. They’ll have entertainment or they’ll have speakers he didn’t have before.

(Speaker 4)
And you, like you said, you just always catch a different part of the material that maybe you didn’t catch before.

(Speaker 3)
It’s worded differently. And it’s really cool because some people that you’ve seen like a year ago at a conference, now they’re being showcased as a success story and you get to see their website, you get to see how their stats, all their metrics have improved and the revenue improved.

(Speaker 3)
So it’s really cool to see people that just a year ago, that of course we’ve been here two years that just came that I met is now being successful it’s really encouraging to see other people you know make accomplish that stuff so Clay has helped us optimize our website and helped with really topping the right search engines that we need to make sure that we are very very competitive with all of our other competitors he’s done basically he outlines exactly what you need to be

(Speaker 3)
accomplishing and he creates tasks that we have to accomplish and his team has to accomplish. I would say over the last two years we’ve totally ramped our website, we’re topping Google in every one of our markets. We’re just doing, I would say just doing really really good. I feel very very confident in all of our future locations and making sure that we’re in front

(Speaker 3)
of the ideal and likely buyer. It’s very encouraging. It’s important to me that, to know, when I’m working with Clay, you know, I’ve been in business for a while and met with him, even when I already had three businesses

(Speaker 3)
in three different states, and to know that what I share with him is staying private. He’s not sending that out to anybody else to know that when he’s working with me he’s only working with one other, no other gyms that are in direct competition with me. It’s very encouraging to have somebody you can trust and rely on that he isn’t going to like somehow tell your trade secrets or give information away. Just really awesome that he’s a trustworthy guy, really cares about you as a client. For us, it’s been a complete mind freedom because Clay has helped us create

(Speaker 3)
a lot of different documents and one sheets for every department, put quantitative scorecards to each department. And so for us, it’s been very encouraging. It gives us peace. And when, like as an entrepreneur, it’s stressful.

(Speaker 3)
You go to bed at night, you’re worried, like, did we cover this, did we cover that? So he helps extract everything out of your brain, everything from your business, put it into document creation, put it into checklists and workflows for every person in each department, and make sure that everything’s getting done every week, every month, and funnel that all into KPIs or key performance indicators, as you can see, on a weekly basis to make sure you’re moving the needle in the right area of your company.

(Speaker 3)
So it’s very encouraging and gives you a complete mind, freedom and peace to know that that stuff’s created so you’re easy to duplicate and scale your company.

(Speaker 4)
Right, and then we can spend time doing what we’re really good at and just trust the system.

(Speaker 3)
I honestly believe everybody needs a coach. I think we’re all inherently lazy and selfish and carnal. I truly believe that humans are humans. If we’re standing, we’d rather sit. If we’re sitting, we’d rather lay down. And if we’re laying down, we’d rather be asleep. So to have somebody that challenges you, have real active candor and be honest with you on every aspect of your company is really really encouraging to me because I want to know, I want to work on what we’re weak at, I

(Speaker 3)
want to see any areas that we’re not doing well in and see his perspective from a third party because you can look at your own business and just see the good. It’s good to have somebody who does it, who’s done this with hundreds of companies. You know, really look at your company, reflect on your company, and see like little chinks in the armor to make sure you cover that up, so your competition can’t get to you and that you’re successful overall in the big picture. Yes, I would recommend Clay Clark because he is a great friend, great encourager.

(Speaker 3)
To me, he’s been a wonderful friend. He’s also, you can tell he cares. And he also, he has this wealth of knowledge. He’s worked with so many different companies and different businesses. He could take a concept that he’s used before in the past with somebody in a totally different industry

(Speaker 3)
and see how it would work perfectly for you in whatever niche market you’re in or whatever type of service you’re providing. And so his brain is just a wealth of knowledge and just to have that type of perspective on you know as a part of your team and your own company is huge, super valuable so I would definitely encourage people to use him but one thing is you got to be

(Speaker 3)
coachable you got to be wanting to get feedback you got to be wanting to really grow your company you got to want to put that extra 10 hours a week to working on your business and not just in your business and so yes I would recommend it to anybody who’s wanting to grow their company and provide great systems, checklists, workflows,

(Speaker 3)
great encouragement, and have accountability.

(Speaker 1)
Hi, I’m Aaron Antus with Shaw Homes. I first heard about Clay through a mortgage lender here in town who had told me what a great job he had been doing for them. And I actually noticed he was driving a Lamborghini all of a sudden, so I was willing to listen.

(Speaker 1)
In my career, I’ve sold a little over $800 million in real estate. So honestly, I thought I kind of knew everything about marketing and homes. And then I met Clay, about marketing and homes. And then I met Clay, and my perception of what I knew and what I could do definitely changed. After doing $800 million in sales over a 15-year career, I really thought I knew what I was

(Speaker 1)
doing. I’ve been managing a large team of salespeople for the last 10 years here with Shaw Homes. And I mean, we’ve been a company that’s been in business for 35 years. We’ve become one of the largest builders in the Tulsa area, and that was without Clay. So when I came to know Clay, I really thought, man,

(Speaker 1)
there’s not much more I need to know, but I’m willing to listen. The interesting thing is our internet leads from our website has actually in a four-month period of time has gone from somewhere around 10 to 15 leads in a month to a hundred and eighty internet leads in a month. Just from the few things that he’s shown us how to implement that I honestly probably never would have

(Speaker 1)
come up with on my own. So I got a lot of good things to say about the system that Clay put in place with us. And it’s just been an incredible experience. I am very glad that we met and had the opportunity to work

(Speaker 17)
with Clay.

(Speaker 1)
So the interaction with the team and with Clay on a weekly basis is honestly very enlightening. One of the things that I love about Clay’s perspective on things is that he doesn’t come from my industry. He’s not somebody who’s in the home building industry. I’ve listened to all the experts in my field.

(Speaker 1)
Our company has paid for me to go to seminars, international builder shows, all kinds of places where I’ve had the opportunity to learn from the experts in my industry. But the thing that I found working with Clay is that he comes from such a broad spectrum of working

(Speaker 1)
with so many different types of businesses that he has a perspective that’s difficult for me to gain because I get so entrenched in what I do, I’m not paying attention to what other leading industry experts are doing. And Clay really brings that perspective for me.

(Speaker 1)
It is very valuable time every week when I get that hour with him. From my perspective, the reason that any business owner who’s thinking about hooking up with Thrive needs to definitely consider it is because the results that we’ve gotten

(Speaker 1)
in a very short period of time are honestly monumental. It has really exceeded my wildest expectation of what he might be able to do. I came in skeptical because I’m very pragmatic and as I’ve gone through the process over just a few months, I’ve realized it’s probably one of the best moves

(Speaker 1)
we’ve ever made. I think a lot of people probably feel like they don’t need a business or marketing consultant because they maybe are a little bit prideful and like to think they know everything. I know that’s how I felt coming in. I mean we’re a big company that’s definitely one of the

(Speaker 1)
largest in town and so we kind of felt like we knew what we were doing and I think for a lot of people they let their ego get in the way of listening to somebody that might have a better or different perspective than theirs. I would just really encourage you, if you’re thinking about working with clay,

(Speaker 1)
I mean, the thing is, it’s month to month. Go give it a try and see what happens. I think in the 35-year history of Shaw Homes, this is probably the best thing that’s happened to us. And I know if you give them a shot, I think you’ll feel the same way. I know for me, the thing I would have missed out on if I didn’t work

(Speaker 1)
with Clay is I would have missed out on literally an 1800% increase in our internet leads, going from 10 a month to 180 a month, that would have been a huge financial decision to just decide not to give it a shot. I would absolutely recommend Clay Clark to anybody who’s thinking about working

(Speaker 1)
with somebody in marketing. I would skip over anybody else you were thinking about, and I would go straight to Clay and his team. I guarantee you’re not going to regret it, because we sure haven’t.

(Speaker 4)
My name is Danielle Sprick, and I am the founder of D. Sprick Realty Group here in Tulsa, Oklahoma. After being a stay-at-home mom for 12 years, and my three kids started school, and they were in school full-time,

(Speaker 4)
I was at a crossroads and trying to decide what do I want to do. My degree and my background is in education, but after being a mom and staying home and all of that, I just didn’t have a passion for it like I once did. My husband suggested real estate. He’s a home builder, so real estate and home building go hand in hand.

(Speaker 4)
And we just rolled with it. I love people. I love working with people. I love the building relationships. But one thing that was really difficult for me was the business side of things, The processes and the advertising and marketing.

(Speaker 4)
I knew that I did not have what I needed to make that what it should be. So I reached out to Clay at that time. And he and his team have been extremely instrumental in helping us build our brand, help market our business, our agents, the homes that we represent.

(Speaker 4)
Everything that we do is a direct line from Clay and his team and all that they’ve done for us. We launched our brokerage, our real estate brokerage, eight months ago. And in that time, we’ve gone from myself and one other agent to just this week week we signed on our 16th agent.

(Speaker 4)
We have been blessed with the fact that we right now have just over 10 million in pending transactions. Three years ago I never would have even imagined that I would be in this role that I’m in today building a business having 16 agents. But I have to give credit where credit’s due. And Clay and his team and the business coaching that they’ve offered us has been huge. It’s been instrumental in what we’re doing. Don’t ever limit your vision. When you dream big, big things happen.

(Speaker 6)
I started a business because I couldn’t work for anyone else. I do things my way. I do what I think is in the best interest of the patient. I don’t answer to insurance companies. I don’t answer to large corporate organizations. I answer to my patient and that’s it.

(Speaker 6)
My thought when I opened my clinic was I can do this all myself. I don’t need additional outside help in many ways. I mean I went to medical school, I can figure this out. But it was a very, very steep learning curve. Within the first six months of opening my clinic I had a $63,000 embezzlement. I lost multiple employees. Clay

(Speaker 6)
helped us weather the storm of some of the things that are just a lot of people experience, especially in the medical world. He was instrumental in helping with the specific written business plan. He’s been instrumental in hiring good quality employees, using the processes that he outlines for getting in good talent, which is extremely difficult. He helped me in securing the business loans.

(Speaker 6)
He helped me with web development and search engine optimization. We’ve been able to really keep a steady stream of clients coming in because they found us on the web. With everything that I encountered, everything that I experienced, I quickly

(Speaker 6)
learned it is worth every penny to have someone in your team that can walk you through and even avoid some of the pitfalls that are almost invariable in starting your own business. I’m Dr. Chad Edwards and I own Revolution Health and Wellness Clinic.

(Speaker 8)
Clay, my honor, my honor to be on your show and thank you for all you do.

(Speaker 3)
I hear the ripple effects from you are good ripple effects.

(Speaker 16)
You know what I mean?

(Speaker 8)
People rave about what they learned from you.

(Speaker 3)
So congratulations.

(Speaker 9)
And we went from expecting maybe 250,000 this year to we’re at 400,000. Hi, I’m Kelsey with K&D’s Wood Refinishing. I’m a business owner at 23. So I’ve been working this K&E’s company for about five years now and we started working with Thrive not too long ago.

(Speaker 9)
And we went from expecting maybe $250,000 this year to we’re at $400,000. That’s what we’re going to hit or exceed. So we’re pretty excited about that. It’s been pretty much just listening to what they have to say. Their hiring process has just really been incredible as far as finding good quality help and just the accountability of meeting up with them weekly and such good insight,

(Speaker 9)
the resources that they have for specific business questions.

(Speaker 15)
It’s all been really incredible. It’s been a great experience. So I’d recommend it to anybody.

(Speaker 3)
What I’ve seen from Clay and his group at Thrive is they’ll give you a simple system and it’s the simple systems are the ones that people can wrap their brain around.

(Speaker 2)
They’re the ones that people can work with on a day-to-day basis. Hi there, my name is Stephanie Pipkin. I am 24 years old and I own Black River Falls Cleaning Services. We opened in April of 2019 and it is now mid-June of 2020. So I wanted to talk today about the success and growth I have achieved by implementing the Proven Path

(Speaker 2)
with Clay Clark’s team and my business coach Luke from Thrive Time It has been insane to say the least I started working with them in mid-february of this year, so we’re about four months in of working together, and it has Completely transformed my business in pretty much every facet So I’m gonna check my notes here. So in four months my leads have tripled. I was getting

(Speaker 2)
probably like two leads a week now I’m getting more in the like 10 to 15 leads a week. I have doubled my number of employees. I’m now hitting the highest revenue weeks in the history of the company, week to week it seems like. We went from about six appointments today as our highest in February to now 14 to 15 appointments a day. And hiring quality employees has become much simpler and less stressful by using their systems for hiring. I typically only get maybe two complaints a month if that and

(Speaker 2)
everybody shows up to work. I just have really high quality employees now especially in something people typically consider a high turnover type of work. You know cleaning houses, cleaning businesses. I have amazing employees now and I get rid of the ones who are not so amazing and bring on new ones because of You know group interviews and higher interviewing every single week. It’s just been great and such a I don’t waste as much time on

(Speaker 2)
Low quality candidates anymore and your coach will hold you accountable. I mean which I love again The tough love is really great, You know, Luke’s like a stern father figure, but he’s also nice, but also stern when he needs to be. When I’m being lazy and not doing the things that I know I need to do because I don’t want to do them. So that’s just great. Worth every penny. I mean, I’d pay it. If it seems like a good fit, just go for it. Do what they say, even if you think it’s stupid or ridiculous, just do what they say because it’ll work. You know, people, when they look at my business, you know, people in my town,

(Speaker 2)
they think I’m lucky. They think I’m just, you know, things just happen for me. And you know, maybe I am lucky, but it has a lot to do with hard work and perseverance and working until you cry sometimes. That’s just being an entrepreneur, which if you’re a business owner you understand that. But it’s having these systems in place of, of course I’m going to be successful. It’s an absolute because I have all this stuff in the background happening. And I have Luke and Clay and everybody on their team

(Speaker 2)
working really hard to make sure that I’m a success. And I can tell that they are just so excited every single week when I’m having all these wins and things like that. They’re so excited for me. So it’s the best thing ever

(Speaker 2)
and I would suggest to anybody to work with them. So sorry for the long-winded reply, but I just had so much to say and I could go on for hours probably about how amazing they are But thank you to clay and Luke and the entire team there everything you guys have done for me And I am so excited to continue to work with you For years to come. Thanks so much for watching

(Speaker 8)
My saying is if it’s important to you hire a coach And I think that’s one of the reasons people are not successful is they, you know, they eat a cheeseburger instead of hiring a coach, you know what I mean? And so my coach pushes me, they’re younger than me,

(Speaker 8)
they push harder, they’re trained. And as my rich dad always said, you know, amateurs don’t have a coach, but professionals always have coaches. So I’ve always had coaches for whatever was important. My rich dad was one of those persons.

(Speaker 8)
I wanted to learn how to play Monopoly in real life. I wanted to learn how to play Monopoly in real life. So he was my coach.
