Transcribed with Cockatoo
(Speaker 8)
Hi there, I just wanted to take a quick minute to thank Clay and his team at Thrivetime. I attended a conference a couple months back and it was really the best business conference I’ve ever attended. Just a ton of practical information that you can really implement in any business. I started with a coaching program a short while thereafter and we’re already ranking at the top of Google for a couple of keywords here at our firm. which is ahead of schedule, and we’re super excited about that. Also, with the coaching program, these are proven business strategies that I’ve been learning about for years here, but where they’ve really helped is how to prioritize those strategies.
(Speaker 8)
As entrepreneurs, we all only have 168 hours in the week, and you know which ones are gonna move the ball down the field the quickest. So, Clay, I know the optimist of momentum is important to you, so three, two, one, boom.
(Speaker 3)
All right, Thrive Nation, I want to tell you a story today about a gentleman I had the opportunity to meet years and years ago, and he has really scaled his company. He’s been just a great friend, and he’s a guy who money is a magnifier. So when you help somebody make more money, it just makes them more of who they are. He’s a generous man. He’s a hardworking man. He’s actually a CPA.
(Speaker 3)
Some people tell me, Clay, doesn’t a CPA stand for a certified pain in the ass? I don’t think that’s always true, folks. There are some good ones out there. And we’re joined here with a longtime client, Paul Hood. Welcome to The Thrive Time Show. How are you, sir?
(Speaker 1)
Hey, like my old friend R .
(Speaker 39)
D.
(Speaker 1)
Mercer said, CPA stands for certified professional ass kicker, not certified pain in the ass.
(Speaker 3)
I’ve got 11 questions for you in about 10 minutes.
(Speaker 38)
So here we go.
(Speaker 22)
Let’s get it.
(Speaker 37)
Let’s get it.
(Speaker 3)
How did you and I first meet? Or I guess maybe when did you and I first start working together?
(Speaker 1)
So, um, back in the day, you know, I had, uh, I still do have a really nice car and I was sitting at a restaurant and the man came up and said, Hey, do you know this guy, Steve Currington? And I said, no. And he’s, and I said, why? And he said, well, cause he’s got these nice cars and you really need to meet him. So I met Steve.
(Speaker 1)
And the first time I met him, he was dressed up in a Hulk outfit at a fundraiser, yelling Hulk smash over the place. And I had been searching clay for I had built a business that was doing about $3 million, had about three offices. And I wanted to go from successful to systematic. And I asked Steve, who do I talk to? And he said, you got to meet my guy. And then he got me to one of your workshops.
(Speaker 1)
I said, holy smokes. I went to one of the best accounting schools in the country, and they didn’t teach anything that you were teaching. So I was lit from day one.
(Speaker 3)
Now, I remember when you came to the conference and watching you take notes. I mean, you were smoking out that. They had a notebook for taking notes. And it was like the piece of paper was going to set to fire because you were taking so many notes. And you were engaging with all the different successful entrepreneurs. And I knew that your business was going to scale.
(Speaker 3)
Because previous to meeting me, you’d already built a successful business. You were top of your class in college. But I knew you could scale. Just to give the listeners some sort of insight an idea in their mind. How much have you grown from the time that you and I first met to now, just to give you some context?
(Speaker 1)
Yeah, so last year, Clay, so we went from about $3 million in revenue, with three offices, to now we have 17 offices across four states. And last year, we did $20 million. And you know, we’re poised, now my industry’s in a kind of a change or die scenario. And we are literally fighting off private equity companies that are wanting to throw money at us to be a part of what we’re doing, because you helped me create what, in my world, they call the platform firm. How do you take a wisdom -based business and scale it? And it was actually pretty simple.
(Speaker 1)
It’s actually made me angry. I’ve told you multiple times. I went to college and they didn’t teach me this stuff. And you’re saying, have a meeting with your people. Well, what does that mean? And you played a massive role in our expansion.
(Speaker 3)
Well, Paul, I want to talk to you about this. This might feel like a backhanded compliment, but that’s not the way I mean it. You were graduating near the top of your class. I mean, you have been a very successful accountant before I met you. But I believe that when we met, you didn’t have a website. And maybe that seems like it’s a backhanded compliment.
(Speaker 3)
I don’t want it to feel that way. I’m saying you were like top of your class CPA, but yet the marketing didn’t match how quality of a service you provide. Maybe I’m getting that wrong. I’d love to get your just, can you let me talk about that? Because I believe you were a top of the class CPA with a non -existent website.
(Speaker 1)
Yeah, yeah. So, you know, it’s, I hear what you’re saying, Clay. You’re saying is, oh my God, how’d this guy ever become as successful as he was before he met me? But the reality is, again, business school, they teach you how to be a technician. They don’t teach you how to grow a business, how to manage people, how to create leads, how to create that marketing funnel, that sales funnel that goes into it. And I remember the first time we met individually, you said, well, let’s look at your website.
(Speaker 1)
And I said, what website? Because I’m a professional, and professionals get new business off of referrals. And, um, dude, you turned on that website and we started getting Google reviews and videos. And, and I’ll tell you in the three months of the beginning of this year, um, my sales team closed 400 new clients in three months, all off of inbound calls, meaning they called us. And that’s all because of what you’ve done with social media, with content and that website.
(Speaker 1)
So bravo.
(Speaker 3)
Now, we talk about one of the things that you did, which I loved, is you, there are what we call passive learners, people that watch information and they don’t think about how to apply it to their lives. Then there’s active learners. You are an active learner. You see something and you think, how can I apply this to my life? And so I remember when you came to the workshop, you almost immediately, we started talking about renovating your offices on the outside and the inside. So basically renovating the brand, like the website, the digital marketing.
(Speaker 3)
but also renovating the way your physical CPA practices looked inside. I think in your Claremore office, you renovated your Claremore office. I’m going to try to pull it up on the screen so people can see this. But you actually implemented so many of the things quickly. And so you actually went through the process of renovating your office inside and outside. Why did you decide to renovate your office on the inside and the outside after having been to workshops and conferences?
(Speaker 3)
Why did you decide to do that? Because very few people do that.
(Speaker 1)
Well, it was two things, Clay. The first thing is when I had clients coming to me and they’d say, you know, they’d rather go to their dentist than see me. And people buy what they want, not what they need. And we were selling what they needed, not what they wanted. And so we needed to portray a success -minded, an anti -CPA environment, if you will, with the slogans and the positive saying and the financial things. And it’s kind of weird, though, Clay, because if you compare your office In my office, they strangely look alike.
(Speaker 1)
I’m not saying I copied off of you, but they strangely look alike. We want to sell success. We don’t want to just do tax returns. We want to sell success. That’s what I jumped all over going to you. I told you one time, Clay, I could live in your office.
(Speaker 1)
the success and the positive and the motivation that’s created. And so I wanted to recreate that in my offices.
(Speaker 3)
Now, other things that you implemented successfully, and again, I’m just trying to brag on some of the wonderful things you’ve been able to accomplish and is, you know, you and I talked and you said, Clay, I have a desire in my heart to write a book. And so you and I worked together on writing your first book, Take a Look Under the Hood, which is a phenomenal book there. You and I did that together. And then the next book here is called Roadkill Tastes Like Chicken. And again, I can’t help somebody to typeset a book or to make a cover if someone doesn’t write the book. And so you were willing to put in the work, and then we were able to work together to produce the end result.
(Speaker 3)
What would you say to somebody who’s on the outside of the website right now, who’s feeling thinking about becoming a client of ours. And we have sort of a, our business is designed, I only take on 160 clients. And so I work with a lot of the same people year after year after year. So what would you say about the amount of effort you had to put in to something like the website or writing the book? And then maybe what would you say about how, what kind of work we put in, just so you kind of explain how that relationship works?
(Speaker 1)
Yeah, Clay, I’m still astonished at what all you guys were willing to do. You proved to me that you can do this with any business, a business that wants to grow, a business that wants to be seen, a business that wants to measure profitability, a business that wants to start with the end in mind. You have all the tools to do that. And again, I’m Clay, you know, I’m, I’m waiting for the check in the mail, but you don’t, you’re not paying me to say this stuff. It’s reality. And, um, I always said, and we’ve sent you a lot of clients over the years that, that you’re the offense, I’m the defense, you show them how to make it.
(Speaker 1)
I show them how to keep it. And, um, I, uh, I wrote the first book, really, frankly, you wrote most of the book. I mean, I went through, you did a lot of stuff, and I added some verbiage and made it, you know, kind of more towards CPA, the defense side, if you will. And in the second book, you know, you taught me that it’s not about making money. It’s about sowing seeds. It’s about changing people’s lives.
(Speaker 1)
It’s about one of the first things that you and I talked about is why am I wanting to do this? What’s the intent? what difference am I going to make in the world? With wealth, when you create wealth, you get attention, and therefore people give you credibility, and they’re more apt to do what you advise. I have a great lifestyle, but what I wanted to do with the book, with you, with my business, is how do I break generational sin or generational punishment. In my book, I call it pigs don’t know pigs stink, because if my mom hadn’t made a change and said no to being abused and alcoholism, I’d probably be some drunk Indian smacking a woman around.
(Speaker 1)
It wouldn’t be my wife, because she’s German. She’d cut me. She’d hurt me. And now I’ve got a college degree and all my kids have college degrees. And so it’s beyond just, I feel like people owe it not only to themselves, to their community, to their family, to people they don’t even know, to be successful and then to sow those seeds of success into other people. And frankly, Clay, I admire you.
(Speaker 1)
I am astounded by everything you do. knowledge and how you can take a business from where I was to where I am now. And it’s all about sharing life’s successes because you can create wealth and benefit the world. But if you can teach other people to create wealth and how to benefit the world, that’s amazing. So bravo to you, Clay.
(Speaker 3)
I appreciate that very much. I got three final questions for you. Three final questions. I want to tap into your wisdom on this. One of the things about your business that blew my mind is that if we typed in Tulsa CPAs into Google or whatever market you’re in, we couldn’t find you. So it’s kind of hard for people sometimes to grasp the idea that the best accountant isn’t findable, the best dentist isn’t findable.
(Speaker 3)
People typically, they go to Google, they type in the search term, and whatever comes up top, that’s who they call. And I wanted to ask you if you could share about the impact that search engine optimization maybe has had on your business. Because I think a lot of dentists, doctors, lawyers, photographers, web developers, people I meet at conferences, we just had a big conference with Tim Tebow last week, and I meet these people who are the best chiropractor in their area, the best neurosurgeon, the best whatever, and people can’t find them. Could you talk about the impact that search engine optimization has made on the business?
(Speaker 1)
It’s immeasurable, Clay. Earlier, I had mentioned we brought in like 400 new clients organically in three months, two and a half months. All of them were what’s called inbound liens, meaning they reached out to me. They weren’t referred to me by another client. They were actually Googled CPAs, and they looked at reviews and videos. When you and I first met, I said, people don’t look for CPAs on Google.
(Speaker 1)
You know, they call their friends or whatever. And you smiled and shook your head and said, OK. And you set out to prove me wrong. And you did. And so anybody, especially in a service business, You can call me, and I’ll tell you that I didn’t believe Clay Clark for a minute, but it has magnified the reach that we have.
(Speaker 1)
And what it’s done for us, Clay, it’s allowed us to be selective on what clients we take. And these clients are calling us. We don’t have to pick up the phone and call them. They’re calling us. And it’s 100 % off of Google, Google Reviews, Google Searches. I’ll admit it right here, and you proved me wrong.
(Speaker 1)
People do look for CPAs off of Google. They look for doctors, dentists, attorneys as well.
(Speaker 3)
Now, my final 90 seconds here for you in the hot seat, you know, the conferences. Dr. Zellner participates in the conferences. You know, we’ve had Tim Tebow, Michael Levine. We’ve had the head of Harley -Davidson. I mean, over the years, we just continue to bring in new folks. But when you get past the big names, Could you maybe describe what the conferences are like or what kind of an impact have the conferences had on your business?
(Speaker 36)
Yeah.
(Speaker 1)
So the main thing is.. . You know, as a business owner, you know, there’s plenty of times I felt like I’m alone. You know, there’s nobody that thinks like me, you know, I’ve got great staff, but you know, they go home at the end of the day, you know, and and you fight negativity and all that. And then, and you don’t know what you’re doing. And you know, nobody taught me how to be a successful business owner in business school.
(Speaker 1)
And then I go to your workshop, It’s positive. I’m surrounded by forward, positive thinking, hardworking, success minded people. And then you start laying out the very simplistic methodologies, because Clay, you taught me there is a pattern to success. And here’s what you do. And in your workshops for the pride, my gosh, you need to quadruple the cost of that going in there. Because if somebody
(Speaker 1)
now here’s what I really like about it. I’m not an excuse maker. I don’t make excuses. And a lot of people like to go and then, oh, I can’t do it. I don’t know what I’m doing. Or my mama couldn’t, my dad couldn’t, so I can’t.
(Speaker 1)
And your workshops take all excuses away. All you gotta do is be willing to put in some effort and show up. There’s a pattern to success. It’s teachable, it’s replicatable. and it’s engaging. I would absolutely recommend anybody and everybody to go to your workshop, because one, you’re gonna walk out of there, you’re gonna be on fire, you’re ready to go, but Clay, you give practical steps on what to do.
(Speaker 1)
And all I gotta do is do it, and that’s what I did, even though I didn’t believe you, and you proved me wrong, and here we are, we’re five times the size we were when, seven times almost, the size we were when we met you a few years ago.
(Speaker 3)
Final question for you. People, when they think about growing a business, they think about sales, they think about marketing, they think about accounting, they think about workflow, they think about human resources, they think about public speaking, they think about PR, they think about social media ads. And people always ask me, they go, OK, so you help people with workflows? Or they’ll go, OK, so you’re the website guy, or you’re the book writing guy, or you’re the Whatever, guy. How would you describe what it is that our business coaching platform does or what it’s done for you?
(Speaker 1)
So what you’ve done for me and what I’ve seen you do for clients is you clearly define the success pattern. The success pattern that you taught me is you define where you’re at, you define where you want to go, you create a plan, you execute the plan, you measure results, you modify the plan. In that plan, there’s a lot of consistencies, no matter if you’re a pool business, if you’re a lawn business, or you’re a CPA. so what you did was and I’m a proponent of going to college, you know, especially the CPA, you have to. But if I didn’t have to, I could have skipped all that crap and hung out with you for a couple of years and learned every step of the way. Because every business that I’ve sent to you or that I work with, maybe they’re good in this area, but they’re not good in these areas.
(Speaker 1)
And so to be able to bring the thing full circle, regardless, and Clay, and again, this is a compliment. You’ve done this with many, many different businesses. So you’re the guy that takes away excuses. If you want to be successful, there’s a pattern. Show up, do the work, modify your plan, and reap the rewards.
(Speaker 3)
Paul, I really do appreciate you. And I want people to know about the resources that you provide. You have a wonderful team there at hoodcpas . com, hoodcpas .
(Speaker 13)
com.
(Speaker 3)
We have typically about a million listeners that will listen to this show on a typical week or every couple of weeks. What are the solutions that you provide there at paulhood .
(Speaker 1)
com, paulhood . com? Well, so what we do is we’re different than most CPAs because my industry is in a really a change or die scenario. 75 % of CPAs are at or above retirement age. There’s about 90 % of the firms that are out there are potential acquisition targets. So what we have to do is we have to re -envision, and you help me with this, re -envision what we do.
(Speaker 1)
We sell success, Clay, just like you do. We’re not marketing people, though. So like I said, you’re the offense, we’re the defense. We teach people and how to minimize their income tax, how to maximize returns, how do you keep more, save more, and protect more. And we do it in a format, Clay, that’s a membership type model to where it’s a fixed fee.
(Speaker 36)
So every time you call us, you’re not going to get paid.
(Speaker 1)
bill. And same thing, it’s very predictable.
(Speaker 3)
Keep more, save more, protect more, not just do your tax return. Paul, I really do appreciate you carving out time to join us today. Again, folks, that’s paulhood . com. You say, what’s that website? It’s paulhood .
(Speaker 24)
com. If you need a CPA in a major way, check out paulhood .
(Speaker 1)
com. Paul Hood, thank you so much for your time today, sir. We’ll talk to you soon. See you, brother. See ya. Bye bye.
(Speaker 1)
The atmosphere here at Thrive and Clay’s office and the team is very upbeat, very positive, very proactive, very forward -looking. They have very specific things that they can offer. Clay’s delivery is very unique. He’s one of the most intelligent people I’ve ever met, but he’s also one of the funniest guys I’ve ever met. So he combines those in a very, very awesome way. One of the most valuable things I’ve learned at the workshop is to be very deliberate, to be very specific.
(Speaker 1)
to have a plan in mind and then they can help you put together the processes to get it done. A favorite aspect is probably just how entertaining it is and the fact that I pick up one or two or three things every time I come to take my business to the next level. Well if people are People are missing out on basically a plan, a guaranteed plan pretty much if you’re willing to work it to be successful. Most people, I think everybody should attend one of these workshops at least once because you don’t know what you don’t know and we’re not taught to be successful in school. What I’ve learned is my college degree is great for preparing me to be a technician, but to be a business owner and to create a process or a business that can continue without me, I’m not there.
(Speaker 1)
I’ve been looking for such processes for a while and what Clay is showing me is that is how to do that step -by -step. Well, I’ve enjoyed the entire workshop. What I’ve liked the most is Clay’s presentation style. You go to seminars. I’m 49. I’ve gone to seminars for 30 years.
(Speaker 1)
And this first seminar I’ve gone to that is entertaining, both entertaining and it’s very usable information. The atmosphere of Thrive headquarters is really actually kind of convincing me to change the atmosphere of my offices, even though they’re traditional CPA practices. The static, non -inviting environment here, I want to come back. When I came here a few weeks ago, I couldn’t wait to come back. Clay’s presentation training style is really like nothing I’ve seen before. Most business seminars I’ve gone to, suit and tie, very, you know, try to stay awake, drink a bunch of cups of coffee, but plays very entertaining.
(Speaker 1)
And the information he has is, I haven’t heard before. I’ve heard pieces of it, but the way he puts it together in a total package and his presentation style is both entertaining and very knowledgeable. Well, I guess what people are missing out if they don’t come to Thrive Conference, it depends on them. If they like working 60, 70 hours a week and barely getting by or making decent money, but you can’t replace your time, that’s fine. If you’re in a position like me, you make good money, but you’d like to buy back your time. You’d like to still make the money, but not have to show up, not have a business that’s dependent upon you showing up.
(Speaker 1)
Coming here, if you don’t come here, you’re not gonna get that. What we’re gonna do today is we’re gonna give you a little tour of the house that we just bought. In Oklahoma, this is what we call a big ol’ house. So come on in and check this out. All right, we bought this house about a year and a half ago, and we’ve been finishing it. It was partially constructed, and so everything’s under construction.
(Speaker 1)
So this is kind of a sneak preview for everybody. So follow me. This right here is the living room, family room, whatever you want to call it. It’s got a bar for watching football, of course. Go Cowboys. It’s got, you know, 50 -foot ceilings, windows out to the pool, really, really nice kitchen over here.
(Speaker 1)
We flew the the vent hood in from Mexico was handmade. Let’s go this way. It’s a really unique room There’s a six -story tower in the middle of the house. Don’t know why it’s got six rooms straight up top You can go 85 feet in the air shoot deer take pictures. Whatever you want to do. See the sunrise sunset this will be a Photography studio actually, but you see it’s got young 25 30 foot ceilings up here.
(Speaker 1)
It’s got a We had to get a special permit. It’s got an elevator that goes up six floors. Normally in a residence, you can only get like a three or four story elevator. Again, just six rooms like this. On the third floor, I’m going to have, I suck at golf. I love golf, but I suck at golf.
(Speaker 35)
And we’re going to have a golf simulator up there so I can play golf for 30 minutes.
(Speaker 1)
I get mad and I can leave, but it’s all inside and air conditioned. Over here off of the photography studio, there’s actually a safe room. It’s all concrete. walls. We had a steel door made for it and so tornadoes come or people we don’t really care, you know, whatever. It’s a safe room.
(Speaker 1)
We can come in. It’s going to have security cameras and everything else in there built in. Now, down this hall is my favorite room. Well, two favorite rooms. One, there is the pantry, and there’s a stairwell right there in the back of the pantry that actually leads from my bedroom. So if I want a snack in the middle of the night, it comes straight down from the bedroom.
(Speaker 1)
There are 109 interior doors here, 33 exterior doors, 25 ,000 square feet. It’s got five garages, different garages. This is the best room in the place. We teach success principles at Hood & Associates CPAs, and one of them is just to have balance between your personal life, your finances, your fitness, your friends, your family. And so for fitness, I’ve got this. I’ll spend a lot of time in here.
(Speaker 1)
And of course, right off here, again, it’s all under construction. There’s stuff everywhere, but about a 70 ,000 gallon swimming pool. We’ll have, it’s got a swim jet, so you can exercise against the current, or it can make waves. It’s got a huge hot tub that you can, two places you can stand, and it’ll massage you from your neck to your back. You know, because when you’re out being successful, making money, you get kind of tensed up. It’s got a layout shelf, a walk -in, a beach entry.
(Speaker 1)
And water shooting everywhere. It’s got about eight different waterfalls. It’s got a cave in it. It’s got a little lazy river, a little lake thing, pond thing up on top where you can lay out and play in the water. So, you know, all the necessities of life. Now we’re on the second floor.
(Speaker 1)
This is the master suite. It’s actually two stories and has three staircases to the second floor. one over here, one there, and then one in another room. It’s got five fireplaces in the whole house, just one here in the master. Second story, the master’s up there, which we’ll go up there in a minute. This is the master bathroom, just a little bathroom.
(Speaker 1)
If you notice in the shower, there’s no knobs to turn the water on. Everything is digital. We have to have Wi -Fi for it, so it talks to your phone or a tablet. And you program it for Paul’s summer shower, Paul’s winter shower, or what have you. It also, in the top there, it’s got a builder where if you want to take a shower in a thunderstorm, it has sound, lightning, thunder, all of that good stuff. I guess that’s the thing, take a shower in a thunderstorm.
(Speaker 1)
The bathtub is heated. It’s actually heated, not just the water, but it’s heated. And then over here is the bathroom, and there’s two things in there. I know what that one does. That one is called a bidet. Does anybody know how to work a bidet?
(Speaker 1)
I don’t. This is the master closet, one of them. I think there’s six closets, but this is, I don’t know how, this is probably a thousand square feet, or give or take. All over here, keeps going over here. I don’t know who needs that many drawers, but apparently we do. This is the wife’s craft room.
(Speaker 1)
She likes to craft. We have grandkids and daughter -in -laws, and this will be full of stuff, and they’ll sit in here and make things and make memories. Of course, it’s off to the balcony. There’s a balcony off to the pool all the way around. Those of you that know me or that will get to know me know I like shoes, and so there’s tons of places to put my shoes in that closet. That’s what I’m excited about.
(Speaker 1)
This is, the house has three laundry rooms. This is the master bedroom laundry room. This is just part of the master suite. So we do laundry right here. This is just a little storage room. You know, you gotta have a place to put suitcases and shoe boxes and stuff like that.
(Speaker 1)
Just a little extra thing. It’s wired for the smart home. So this is one of the brains. Now we’re circling back, if you get lost, we’re circling back to the master bathroom, another closet. Right here’s that stairway I said that goes down to the pantry in case I want a snack. This room here I’m excited about.
(Speaker 1)
This is, we have three grandkids and a fourth on the way. And the house is so big that if our grandkids come and stay with us, we want them to be close. So this is just like an extra bedroom attached to the master suite. Now let’s go upstairs to the second floor of the master. This is a stairway, one of the second of three stairways to the second floor. It’s actually third floor of the house, second floor of the master.
(Speaker 1)
We think we’re gonna make this a slide because that right there, where we just came from, was the grandkids’ bedroom. So they’re gonna be able to come up to our second floor, slide down into their bedroom. What do you think about that? I think that’s a necessity. This is the third story of the house, second story of the master bedroom. This room right here is kind of cool.
(Speaker 1)
It’s going to be like a little spa room. We’ve got a commercial tanning bed that goes in there and a massage chair, you know, all the relaxing music and all of that. This would be like a library or reading room off of the master. It’s still part of the master. It’s got a separate balcony out there. Every room in the house is wired for speakers for entertaining.
(Speaker 1)
There’s a lot of speakers, I can tell you what, and they suck putting them up. I’d put a bunch of them up, but there’s a lot of them. These fans are really cool. They spin like this, and then they the fans inside of them spin so it’s just got like three different motions going on at once. Okay we’re now back on the second story of the house over by the tower.
(Speaker 1)
This is my office. This is where my office will be. And then we can go over here and you can see the second floor of the tower. Now, on the third floor of the tower, I’m going to put a golf simulator, like I said earlier, because I suck at golf, but I want to play. But you can see, we just got to keep our grandkids, because we have three granddaughters. They’ll be OK, but I have a grandson coming.
(Speaker 1)
And I know he’s going to want to be climbing. We’re going to have to be careful of that. This is a, this will be just an entertaining room, a game room. There’ll be a pool table here. Kids play Fortnite. Now, over here is when you have a game room, you also got to have a place to have snacks.
(Speaker 1)
So this is our snack kitchen. This is one of three kitchens in the house. Like I say, there’s three laundry rooms, three kitchens. There are 13 bathrooms. This is kind of cool. But this is for entertaining.
(Speaker 34)
I was looking to learn how to take my business, like they’ve said today, from being very successful to being systematic.
(Speaker 1)
I’ve got a very successful practice in three different cities.
(Speaker 3)
Make good money.
(Speaker 1)
I just want to take it to the next level with systems and processes to where I can drive my cars more. Paul Hood.
(Speaker 3)
I’ve been a CPA for 33 years. And what kind of growth have you and your great team had here over the past, let’s say, five, six years? The last five, when I met you five years ago, we were doing 3 million.
(Speaker 19)
This year we’ll be, we’ll do 24 million.
(Speaker 3)
Which is more than, which is more than, and he’s an accountant, so we’re going to talk about that.
(Speaker 33)
So, Paul Hood.
(Speaker 3)
to Bob, because he said there’s a guy that came into my office looking to raise some capital. And that was the thing. And he needed to get some sales going that sales going. That’s how.
(Speaker 1)
And so we if we tell Paul from the accounting perspective, I’ll pass the mic to you do account you do accounting. Why do you have to you have to have a website makes sense. And all that branding stuff. How is that impacted your your brand having websites and all those branding things in place? Well, when I met you, like most CPAs, I thought my clients only come from referrals, but we get 500 leads in a two month period every month just off of Google. And so this is my face.
(Speaker 1)
We have 17 offices across four states. We have in every state. But this is, this is our face.
(Speaker 3)
Like, like once you were since visual and it all, and it also has to say why we’re different, uh, that about us from there is spectacular.
(Speaker 1)
And it just, uh, it’s, it’s an industry that has changed. We’re, we’re modifying it. We’re going to, we’re going to, uh, we offer our services and, and a, a subscript model, uh, to where it’s all inclusive and it’s just been awesome. We’ll determine the level of success.
(Speaker 3)
So. success in business is not what you know how to do it’s actually doing it and so the thing that i would tell you is stop it get get like this guy and let him go after it insane because then you can be doing what you do well and and take that that time and invest in something else on top of that on top of that as contacts and i’m not this is not i don’t i don’t get anything for selling his just telling you what he’s done for us so that we could focus and then he’ll come in and and i’ll say you know i you know i think i’ve got it all and he listens for five minutes and he makes and he makes one and i want to slap myself in the face well why didn’t i think about that’s idiotic Um, but they’re sick freaks. They just get it, get it done. I don’t know. I think it’s just merit based pay in our office.
(Speaker 3)
So the people here, like they get paid.
(Speaker 2)
So if we were taking on your account account and someone else to do this, but if you hired a different marketing company, I’m just giving you best practices. Do you want to make sure that they win when you win? It’s like in our office, if we grow Dave Basie’s podcast, that benefits our company, to the extent it benefits them, but we actually benefit if they benefit. Does that make sense to you? Hello, my name is Charles Colaw with Colaw Fitness. Today, I want to tell you a little bit about Clay Clark and how I know Clay Clark.
(Speaker 2)
Clay Clark has been my business coach since 2017. He’s helped us grow from two locations to now six locations. We’re planning to do seven locations in seven years and then franchise. And Clay has done a great job of helping us navigate anything that has to do with like, running the business, building the systems, the checklists, the workflows, the audits, how to navigate lease agreements, how to buy property, how to work with brokers and builders. This guy is just amazing. This kind of guy has worked in every single industry.
(Speaker 2)
He’s written books with like Lee Crockrell, head of Disney with the 40 ,000 cast members. He’s friends with like Mike Lindell. He does reawaken America tours where he does these tours all across the country where 10 ,000 or more people show up to some of these tours on the day -to -day. He does anywhere from about 160 companies. He’s at the top. He has a team of business coaches, videographers, and graphic designers and web developers, and they run 160 companies every single week.
(Speaker 2)
So think of this guy with a team of business coaches running 160 companies. So in the weekly, he’s running 160 companies. Every six to eight weeks, he’s doing Reawaken America tours. Every six to eight weeks, he’s also doing business conferences where 200 people show up and he teaches people a 13 -step proven system that he’s done and worked with billionaires helping them grow their companies. he’s I’ve seen guys from startups go from startup to being multi -millionaires Teaching people how to get time freedom and financial freedom through the system critical thinking, document creation, making it, putting it into organizing everything in their head to building it into a franchisable, scalable business. Like one of his businesses has like 500 franchises.
(Speaker 2)
That’s just one of the companies or brands that he works with. So amazing guy, Elon Musk, kind of like smart guy. He kind of comes off sometimes as socially awkward, but he’s so brilliant and he’s taught me so much. When I say that, like Clay is like, he doesn’t care what people think when you’re talking to him. He cares about, where you’re going in your life and where he can get you to go and that’s what I like him most about him. He’s like a good coach.
(Speaker 2)
A coach isn’t just making you feel good all the time, a coach is actually helping you get to the best you and Clay has been an amazing business coach. Through the course of that we became friends. I was really most impressed with him is when I was shadowing him one time. We went into a business deal and listened to it. I got to shadow and listen to it. And when we walked out, I knew that he could make millions on the deal.
(Speaker 2)
And they were super excited about working with him. And he told me, he’s like, I’m not going to touch it. I’m going to turn it down. Because he knew it was going to harm the common good of people in the long run. And the guy’s integrity just really wowed me. It brought tears to my eyes to see that this guy, his highest desire was to do what’s right.
(Speaker 2)
And anyways, just an amazing man. So anyways, impacted me a lot. He’s helped navigate any time I’ve gotten nervous or worried about how to run the company or, you know. Navigating competition and an economy that’s like, I remember we got closed down for three months. He helped us navigate on how to stay open, how to get back open, how to just survive through all the COVID shutdowns, lockdowns, because our clubs were all closed for three months and you have $350 ,000 of bills you’ve got to pay and we have no accounts receivable.
(Speaker 2)
He helped us navigate that and of course we were conservative enough that we could afford to take that on for a period of time. He was a great man. I’m very impressed with him. So Clay, thank you for everything you’re doing. And I encourage you, if you haven’t ever worked with Clay, work with Clay. He’s going to help magnify you. And there’s nobody I have ever met that has the ability to work as hard as he does.
(Speaker 2)
He probably sleeps four, maybe six hours a day. And literally the rest of the time he’s working and he can outwork everybody in the room every single day. And he loves it. So anyways, this is Charles Kola with Kola Fitness. Thank you, Clay.
(Speaker 27)
And anybody out there that’s wanting to work with Clay, it’s a great, great opportunity to ever work with him.
(Speaker 3)
So, you guys have a blessed one. This is Charles Kola. We’ll see you guys. Bye -bye. in real estate. So, honestly, I thought I kind of knew everything about marketing and homes.
(Speaker 3)
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 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
(Speaker 3)
thought, man, 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 180 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 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 with Clay. So the interaction with the team and with Clay on a weekly basis is honestly very enlightening.
(Speaker 3)
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. 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 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 3)
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 we’ve gotten 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 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.
(Speaker 3)
I know that’s how I felt coming in. I mean, we’re a big company that’s definitely one of the 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, I mean, the thing is, it’s month to month. Go give it a try and see what happens.
(Speaker 3)
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.
(Speaker 25)
I know for me, the thing I would have missed out on if I didn’t work with Clay is I would have missed out on literally an inch 1800 % increase in our internet leads, going from 10 a month to 180 a month.
(Speaker 4)
That would have been a huge financial decision to just decide not to give it a shot. I would absolutely recommend Klay Clark to anybody who’s thinking about working with somebody in marketing. I would skip over anybody else you were thinking about and I would go straight to Klay and his team. I guarantee you’re not going to regret it because we sure haven’t. 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, I was at a crossroads and trying to decide, what do I want to do?
(Speaker 4)
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, and we just rolled with it. I love people, I love working with people, I love building relationships, but one thing that was really difficult for me was the business side of things. The processes and the advertising and marketing, 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 we signed on our 16th agent. 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.
(Speaker 4)
But I have to give credit where credit’s due.
(Speaker 5)
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. I started a business because I couldn’t work for anyone else. I do things my way.
(Speaker 5)
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. My thought when I opened my clinic was I can do this all myself. I don’t need additional outside help in many ways.
(Speaker 5)
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 helped us weather the storm of some of the things that are just a lot of people experience, especially in the medical world.
(Speaker 5)
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 32)
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.
(Speaker 12)
With everything that I encountered, everything that I experienced, I quickly 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.
(Speaker 3)
I’m Dr. Chad Edwards and I own Revolution Health and Wellness Clinic.
(Speaker 12)
Fox 23 television exclusive, a local company is taking small businesses to new leaps and bounds by linking them up with world -class education from millionaires, moguls, and everyday success stories. Fox 23 Sharon Phillips is live downtown on why it could have a big impact on our local economy. It’s already changing the face of small business right here in Tulsa.
(Speaker 3)
We have to determine that we’re going to live before we die.
(Speaker 7)
One quick glance at this wall, and it’s clear that CEO Clay Clark knows what he’s talking about.
(Speaker 10)
Right now, he is one of America’s most sought after business and entrepreneurship coaches. He’s working to teach entrepreneurs specifically what they need to start and grow a business.
(Speaker 7)
Marketing, sales, PR. But Clay Clark, man, he is one character. That’s a good word for him, character. Yeah, that is it. Good, driven, smart. And I’ve never met a guy who was so hyper all the time.
(Speaker 7)
He’s doing so much good.
(Speaker 10)
And then I met his mother, and she just says, she just lets him be Clay Clark. I mean, he’s endorsed by his mother, and he’s doing magnificent work. So it was great meeting you out there and all the people that he surrounds himself with.
(Speaker 7)
Clay Clark starts his days at five o ‘clock in the morning. Oh, it’s incredible. Yeah. He’s, he’s like, he’s, he’s a machine.
(Speaker 14)
He’s a machine.
(Speaker 10)
But his, you know, I could, I have problems with my company starting at nine o ‘clock.
(Speaker 31)
He has hundreds of people showing up at 5 .00 AM in Tulsa, Oklahoma, man. He’s a leader of a leader.
(Speaker 9)
He’s fantastic. Yeah, man. No, he is. Clay Clarke is here somewhere. Where’s my buddy Clay?
(Speaker 31)
Clay is the greatest.
(Speaker 30)
I met his goats today.
(Speaker 8)
I met his dogs. I met his chickens.
(Speaker 6)
I saw his compound. He’s like the greatest guy. I ran from his goats, his chickens, his dogs. So this guy’s like the greatest marketer you’ve ever seen, right? His entire life, Clay Clark, his entire life is marketing. 4 ,000 % from February to February.
(Speaker 6)
Now I can better that. Okay, Clay, I don’t think you know this. I don’t think you know this. I’m pinching myself and if I cry, forgive me. In the last two and a half days, we have bettered our entire month of February.
(Speaker 7)
In the last two and a half days. So, and the phone’s blowing up.
(Speaker 3)
Everything’s just blowing up.
(Speaker 29)
You’re right, it is like a rocket ship.
(Speaker 3)
So, we’re pinching ourselves, actually. I learned at the Academy in Kings Point, New York, acta non verba. Watch what a person does, not what they say. Okay, Aaron Antis, guess who’s joining us for the December 4th and 5th, 2025 Thrive Time Show Business Growth Workshop? Santa Claus? No, we will not be joined by Santa Claus, but we will be joined by Eric Trump, the son of the 45th and now 47th President of these United States.
(Speaker 3)
And yes, Amanda Grace will be in the place. And yes, Dr. Stella Manuel will be there, so you know it will go well. Yes, we have Mel K in the house. Pastor Phil and Tammy Hotson -Piller will be hosting this event at their beautiful church right there in sunny Anaheim, California. Yes, folks, make this a December to remember. Make this a December to remember and join us at the two -day interactive Business Growth Workshops.
(Speaker 3)
For over 20 years, folks, I’ve been hosting Business Growth Workshops where we’re gonna teach you marketing, sales systems, human resources, accounting, social media marketing, branding, sales training, search engine optimization, accounting, workflow development, financial management, all this and more.
(Speaker 28)
How do you get tickets?
(Speaker 3)
Go to Thrivetimeshow . com. Again, how do you get tickets? Go to Thrivetimeshow . com and request tickets today. Trump.
(Speaker 3)
People don’t know this, but the Trump Organization has thousands of employees. There’s not 50 employees. The Trump Organization, again, most people don’t know this, but the Trump Organization has thousands of employees. And while Donald J. Trump was the 45th president of these United States, and this just in from our home office, President Donald J. Trump is now the 47th president of these United States as well. I’m Ron Burgundy. a Promoting from within, marketing, branding, quality control, sales systems, workflow design, workflow mapping, how to build.
(Speaker 3)
I mean, everything that you see, the Trump hotels, the Trump golf courses, all their products, the man who manages Billions of dollars of real estate and thousands of employees is here to teach us how to do it. You are talking about one of the greatest brands on the planet from a business standpoint.
(Speaker 16)
I mean, who else has been able to create a brand like the Trump brand?
(Speaker 23)
I mean, look at it.
(Speaker 15)
And this is the man behind the business for the last, pretty much since 2015.
(Speaker 27)
He’s been the man behind it so you’re talking we’re into nine going into ten years of him running it and we get to tap into that knowledge.
(Speaker 3)
That’s gonna be amazing. Now think about this for a second. Nothing is over until we decide it is. Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? German? Forget it, he’s rolling.
(Speaker 3)
And it ain’t over now. The lineup continues to grow. and this is how we do our tickets here at the Thrive Time Show. If you want to get a VIP ticket, you can absolutely do it. It’s $500 for a VIP ticket. We’ve always done it that way.
(Speaker 3)
Now, if you want to take a general admission ticket, it’s $250 or whatever price you want to pay. And the reason why I do that and the reason why we do that is because we want to make our events affordable for everybody. I grew up without money. I totally understand what it’s like to be the tight spot. So if you want to attend, it’s $250 or whatever price you want to pay. That’s how I do it.
(Speaker 3)
And it’s $500 for a VIP ticket. have limited seating here with there’s a lot of togetherness and closeness camaraderie so again if you want to get tickets for this event all you have to do is go to thrive timeshow .
(Speaker 26)
com go to thrive timeshow .
(Speaker 3)
com when you go to thrive timeshow . com you’ll go there you’ll request a ticket boom or if you want to text me if you want a little bit faster service you say i want you to call me right now i just texted my number it’s my cell phone number my personal cell phone number we’ll keep that private between you, between you, me, everybody.
(Speaker 25)
We’ll keep that private. And anybody, don’t share that with anybody except for everybody.
(Speaker 3)
That’s my private cell phone number. It’s 918 -851 -0102. 918 -851 -0102. I know we have a lot of Spanish speaking people that attend these conferences. And so to be bilingually sensitive, my cell phone number is 918 -851 -0102. That is not actually bilingual.
(Speaker 3)
That’s just saying Juan for a Juan. It’s not the same thing. I think you’re attacking me.
(Speaker 24)
Now, let’s talk about this.
(Speaker 3)
Now, what kind of stuff will you learn at the Thrive Time Show Workshop? So Aaron, you’ve been to many of these over the past seven, eight years. So let’s talk about it. I’ll tee up the thing and then you tell me what you’re going to learn here, okay? Okay. You’re going to learn marketing, marketing and branding.
(Speaker 3)
What are we going to learn about marketing and branding? Oh, yeah. We’re going to dive into, you know, so many people say, oh, you know, I got to get my brand known out there like the Trump brand, right? You want to get that brand out there. It’s like, how do I actually make people know what my business is? and make it a household name?
(Speaker 3)
You’re going to learn some intricacies of how you can do that. You’re going to learn sales. So many people struggle to sell something. This just in, your business will go to hell if you can’t sell. So we’re going to teach you sales. We’re going to teach you search engine optimization, how to come up top in the search engine results.
(Speaker 3)
We’re going to teach you how to manage people. Aaron, you have managed, no exaggeration, hundreds of people throughout your career and thousands of contractors and most people struggle with managing people. Why does everybody have to learn how to manage people? Well, because first of all, people are, you either have great people or you have people who suck. So it could be a challenge, you know, learning how to work with a large group of people and get everybody pulling in the same direction can be a challenge. But if you have the right systems, you have the right processes, and you’re really good at selecting great ones, and we have a process we teach about how to find great people.
(Speaker 3)
When you start with the people who have a great attitude, they’re teachable, they’re driven, all of those things, then you can get those people all pulling in the same direction. So we’re going to teach you branding, marketing, sales, search engine optimization. We’re going to teach you accounting. We’re going to teach you personal finance, how to manage your finance. time management? How do you manage your time?
(Speaker 3)
How do you get more done during a typical day? How do you build an organization if you’re not organized? How do you do organization? How do you build an org chart? Everything that you need to know to start and grow a business will be taught during this two -day interactive business workshop. Now, let me tell you how the format is set up here.
(Speaker 3)
And again, folks, this is a two -day interactive 15. Think about this, folks. It’s two days. Each day, it starts at 7 AM, and it goes until 5 PM. So from 7 AM to 5 PM, two days. It’s a two -day interactive workshop.
(Speaker 3)
The way we do it is we do a 30 -minute teaching session, and then we break for 15 minutes for a question and answer session. So Aaron, what kind of great stuff happens during that 15 -minute question and answer session after every teaching session? I actually think it’s the best part about the workshops, because here’s what happens. I’ve been to lots of these things over the years. I’ve paid many thousands of dollars to go to them. And you go in there, and they talk in vague generalities, and they’re constantly upselling you for something, trying to get you to buy this thing or that thing or this program or this membership.
(Speaker 3)
And you don’t, you leave not getting your very specific questions answered about your business or your employees or what you’re doing on your marketing. And what’s awesome about this is we literally answer every single question that any person asks. And it’s very specific to what your business is. And what we do is we allow you as the attendee to write your questions on the whiteboard. And then we literally, as you mentioned, we answer every single question on the whiteboard. And then we take a 15 minute break to stretch.
(Speaker 3)
And this is also your opportunity to meet some of the great speakers like Pastor Dave Scarlett.
(Speaker 23)
You could meet Mel K. You could meet Amanda Grace.
(Speaker 3)
You could meet Dr. Stella Emanuel. You could just grab a coffee. You could find some alone time. You could get lost in the bathroom. You could try to go and get a photo with one of the speakers. You could try to photobomb a photo where someone else is getting a photo with the speakers.
(Speaker 3)
You could go attempt to find your phone, wallet, and your keys. Now that’s a good idea. It’s going to be great. And then you’re in the company of hundreds of entrepreneurs. So there’s not a lot of people in America today. In fact, there’s less than 10 million people today, according to U .
(Speaker 3)
S. Debt Clock, that identify as being self -employed. So if you have a country with 350 million people, that means you have less than 3 % of our population that’s even self -employed. So you only have three out of every 100 people in America that are self -employed to begin with. And when Inc. Magazine reports that 90 %
(Speaker 3)
% of businesses fail by default… By default, you have a one out of a thousand chance of succeeding in the game of business. But yet the average client that you and I work with, we can typically double this. No hyperbole, no exaggeration. I have thousands of testimonials to back this up. We have thousands of testimonials to back it up.
(Speaker 3)
But when you work with a home builder, when I work with a business owner, we can typically double the size of the company within 24 months. And you say double? Yeah, there’s businesses that we have tripled. There’s businesses we’ve grown 8x. There’s so many examples you can see. see it thrivetimeshow .
(Speaker 3)
com.
(Speaker 23)
But again, this is the most interactive best business workshop on the planet.
