Hi, this is Brandon Massey with Elite Cabinetry. I just wanted to give a quick shout out to Marshall Morris and the entire Thrive15 . com team for all you do. You guys have been instrumental in not only helping develop my business, but also developing me as a person. Keep up the good work. Hey, all you potential Thrivers out there, this is Jamie Fangle.

I’m with Jameson Fine Cabinetry in Raleigh, North Carolina. I started with the Thrive 15 back in April of 2019. Um, I came across Clay’s podcast when I was just kind of messing around one day when I was driving, I used to try to like listen to, uh, educational things. Um, so I found his podcast and started laughing. I mean, it was just full of real down to earth, everyday business stuff that happens. Whereas a lot of the other things I come across, it’s just the same old, same old stuff that they just keep repeating.

It doesn’t really go anywhere. So I listened to his podcast probably every day for about a week, week and a half. Then I called him to check into what it’s all about, the coaching program that they have. Clay called me, I think within three days of me talking to the first person who went through and did the, you know, the follow up and the walkthrough. So after talking to Clay, we decided to move forward with the program. I said, I’ve been doing it since 2019 of April, couldn’t be happier.

When we first came aboard with 515, we were not known on the internet. Nobody could find us. And now I’m on basically page one for all the important searches. There’s one more that we’re waiting to get to and hopefully within another month we’ll be on page one of that. And with that, we’ve already seen an increase in business just from the website. That’s not including when I have a sale before I go out to that sale to meet with a customer, I tell them to look on our website and check out our reviews and our testimonials.

By the time I get to the customer’s house, that job’s already sold. Some of the other things that I’ve learned, I went to the seminar or the conference that they have up there. I went to one of them in December, and it was just great because you meet all the people who are struggling and going through the same things that you’re going through, and then you have these real conversations. Conversations you don’t have with everyday people who are not running a business and don’t run into all the same things that you’re trying to manage through while growing a business, protecting your money and keeping your customers all happy. So a lot of the things that I’ve learned and one of the other big ones would be the group interviews. I would always do the same old thing when I needed somebody, I’d post an ad and meet with one person at a time and once I got tired of that, I’d pick the guy who was you know, the best suited, out of those three or four, because I only had time to interview two or three people.

Doing a group interview, you get to see everybody in the same setting, basically right in front of you. And you can tell a lot more by how they handle themselves, how they come to their interview, are they dressed to impress, do they have their pad, did they show up on time, all those things. And it makes a huge difference. I’ve hired now four people from the group interviews, and all of them are rock stars. except for one. One guy didn’t quite work out, but that was probably more my fault than Ann.

But the group interview is a solid thing. You gotta follow it. You gotta do it. Some of the other things that we’ve done is the systems and processes. As much as you know that you need to do systems and processes, when you’re caught up in the day -to -day minutia of getting your business running, it’s really hard to focus on writing a process. But if you’re not doing those, your company is just not gonna have that solid foundation that you need.

And, you know, I’ve gone through a lot of corporate jobs in my time, and I know all about the processes and the checklists and all that, but never got to do them. Once I started with 515, it was kind of part of our homework to get these things done. And as I see these checklists go into action, and people are starting to use them now, and all my employees are referring back to them, a hell of a way to start training people. It just makes training a whole lot easier. You’re not trying to do that, you know, you gotta tell them 15 times before they get a thing. You can hand them a book and say, here’s what your job entails, here’s all the things you need to do, and here’s how you do it.

The checklists are a great thing to get done. So right now, I mean, as I said, it’s moving along great. I highly recommend these guys. It’s one of the best things of my week. You know, it’s hard when you’re You know, just constantly pushing, pushing, pushing to take that time to work on your business. If you don’t take that time to work on your business, your business will not get any farther than where it is now.

And if it does, it’s by chance, not by skill, and it won’t last. You really need to get a foundation. You need to have these guys in your corner so you can talk about the current situation you’re dealing with. It’s not just a marketing company. These guys help you with marketing, they help you with business decisions, they help you with advertising, they talk about financials, everything that you need to have a good solid discussion with about your business. These guys are not part of your business, they’re not part of your family, they’re not your friends, they’re not anybody that you come and associate with.

They’re just there to help you grow your business. It’s a mastermind group, works great. Really, at this point, we’re looking at doubling our sales. Actually, we’re on course to grow our business 150 % this year, even amidst the COVID -19 pandemic. that’s going on. And our states is one of those things that can’t seem to figure out what the best thing to do.

So they don’t do anything, lock it down and shut it down and all that. So even with the COVID -19, we’re on pace to grow 150 % and that’s phenomenal. And I attribute a lot of that to or most of that to my weekly conversations with Andrew and Clay. Well done, guys. I really appreciate it. And I hope you potential drivers out there jump into it.

It’s a great thing. Can’t beat it. Thanks. My name’s Adam. I’m the owner of the Owasso Tip Top Canine location. Being top on Google is huge.

People only look so far for results. If you want the first thing that pops up, you’re going to be the one that they call. It didn’t take us very long to get there. It might have taken us a few months at the most. Get the reviews, follow the system. Works like a charm.

Get your tickets right now at Thrivetimeshow . com.

Once again, it’s Thrivetimeshow . com. Hey, I’m Ryan Wimpey. I’m originally from Tulsa, born and raised here. I’ve definitely learned a lot about life design and making sure the business serves you. The linear workflow, the

linear workflow for us in getting everything out on paper and documented is really important. We have workflows that are kind of all over the place, so having linear workflow and seeing that mapped out on multiple different boards is pretty awesome. That’s really helpful for me. The atmosphere here is awesome. I definitely just stared at the walls figuring out how to make my facility look like this place. This place rocks.

It’s invigorating, the walls are super, it’s just very cool. The atmosphere is cool, the people are nice, it’s a pretty cool place to be. Very good learning atmosphere. I literally want to model it and steal everything that’s here at this facility and basically create it just on our business side. Hilarious. I literally laughed so hard that I started having tears yesterday.

And we’ve been learning a lot, which, you know, we’ve been sitting here, we’ve been learning a lot, and so the humor definitely helps, it breaks it up. But the content is awesome, off the charts, and it’s very interactive, you can raise your hand, it’s not like you’re just listening to the professor speak, you know? The wizard teaches, but the wizard interacts and he takes questions, so that’s awesome. If you’re not attending the conference, you’re missing about three quarters to half of your life. Um, you’re definitely, it’s, it’s probably worth a couple thousand dollars. So you’re missing the thought process of someone that’s already started like nine profitable businesses.

So not only is it a lot of good information, but just getting in the thought. Clay Clark is here somewhere. Where’s my buddy Clay? Clay is 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. 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. Most 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, he needed a competent man to run and execute his business plans.

Showtime! So the man that runs the Trump Organization Before Donald J. Trump, as he was the 45th president of the United States, and now the 47th president of the United States, is Eric Trump. So Eric Trump is here to talk about time management, promoting from within, marketing, branding, quality control, sales systems, workflow design, workflow mapping, how to build. 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. I mean, who else has been able to create a brand like the Trump brand?

I mean, look at it. And this is the man behind the business for the last pretty much since 2015. He’s been the man behind it. So you’re talking, we’re into nine, going into 10 years of him running it. And we get to tap into that knowledge. That’s going to be amazing.

Now think about this for a second. 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.

He’s doing so much good. 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 a great meeting. you out there and all the people that he surrounds himself with. His client 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. He’s a machine. But his you know, I could I have problems with my company starting at nine o ‘clock. Yes. Hundreds of people showing up at 5am in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Man, he’s a leader of a leader. He’s fantastic. Yeah, man. No, he is. 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. 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. And it’s $500 for a VIP ticket. Now, we only have limited seating here. The most people we’ve ever had in this building was for the Jim Brewer presentation.

Jim Brewer came here, the legendary comedian Jim Brewer came to Tulsa, and we had 718 people. 718 people. And I thought to myself, there’s no more room. I felt kind of bad that a couple people had VIP seats in the men’s restroom. No, I’m just kidding. So I thought, you know what, we should probably add on.

So again, if you want to get tickets for this event, all you have to do is go to thrivetimeshow . com. Go to thrivetimeshow . com. When you go to thrivetimeshow . 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. Just text my number. It’s my cell phone number, my personal cell phone number. We’ll keep that private between you, between you, me, everybody. We’ll keep that private. And anybody, don’t share that with anybody except for everybody.

That’s my private cell phone number. It’s 918 -851 -0222. 9 -1 -8 -8 -5 -1 -0 -1 -0 -2. 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 9 -1 -8 -8 -5 -1 -0 -1 -0 -2. That is not actually bilingual.

That’s just saying Juan for a one. It’s not the same thing. I think you’re attacking me. Now, let’s talk about this. 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, OK? You’re going to learn marketing, marketing and branding. 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.

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? 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 Sales, 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. 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, you either have great people or you have people who suck.

And so it can be a challenge. 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. 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. 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. We’re going to teach you time management. How do you manage your time? 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. 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. 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. 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 and to make it entertaining when you’re stretching. That’s the true story. When you get up and stretch, you’ll be greeted by mariachis.

There’s going to probably be alpaca here, llamas, helicopter rides, a coffee bar, a snowman. I mean, it’s just you had a crocodile one time. That was pretty interesting. You know, I should write that down. And I feel sorry for that one guy that we lost. The crocodile, we duct taped its face.

Right? We duct taped. No, it was a baby crocodile. And we duct taped. Yeah, duct taped around the mouth so it didn’t bite anybody. But it was really cool passing that thing around.

I should do that. I should. We have a small petting zoo that will be assembled. 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 US 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 96 % of businesses fail by default, By default, you have a 1 out of 1 ,000 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. 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. at Thrivetimeshow . com. But again, this is the most interactive best business workshop on the planet.

This is objectively the highest rated and most reviewed business workshop on the planet. I was looking to learn how to take my business, like they’ve said today, from being very successful to being systematic. I’ve got a very successful practice in three different cities. I make good money. I just want to take it to the next level with systems and processes to where I can drive my cars more. Paul Hood.

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 three million. This year we’ll be, we’ll do 24 million. And you say, Clay, I still, I’m not going to get a ticket unless you give me more. Okay, fine.

We’re going to serve you the same meal both days. True story. We have, we cater in the food and because, I keep it simple, I literally bring in the same food both days for lunch. It’s Ted Esconzito’s, an incredible Mexican restaurant. That’s going to happen. And someone says, I want more.

This is not enough. Give me more. OK, I’m not going to mention their names right now because I’m working on it behind the scenes here. But we’ve got one guy who’s given me a verbal to be here. And this is a guy who’s one of the wealthiest people in Oklahoma. And nobody really knows who he is because he’s built systems that are very utilitarian that offer a lot of value.

He’s made a lot of money in the it’s the. It’s where you rent. It’s short. It’s where you’re renting storage spaces. He’s a storage space guy. He owns this.

What do you call that? The rental, the storage space, storage units. This guy owns storage units. He owns railroad cars. He owns a lot of assets that make money on a daily basis. But they’re not like customer facing.

Most people don’t know who owns the many storage facility or most people don’t know who owns the warehouse that’s passively making money. Most people don’t know who owns the railroad cars. This guy, he’s giving me a verbal that he will be here and we just continue to add more and more success stories.

I’ve been a coaching client with Clay Clark since the beginning of our business. We started about a year ago, August of last year. I had no clients, no idea what we were doing, no clue really what was going on. And now we’ve grown to where we’ve got six photographers, we’ve got office space here. I have an admin sales person that works for us full time, developing an online system. And a lot of that growth we attribute to Clay helping us.

And there’s so many things that, I mean, his stuff is not revolutionary. It’s not this crazy walk on hot coals and all this stuff. Uh, it’s just real, real stuff. It’s going to be a blasty blast. There’s no upsells. Uh, Aaron, I could not be more excited about this event.
