So I’m Scott Padilla, and it’s Crystal and I actually have the company, and it’s We Build It USA. Actually, I’ve been following Clay, you, for a long time. And so yeah, we just decided, we knew that the business coaching was there for us, and we just kind of put it aside and put it aside and said, all right, we’re going to do it. Yes, we came to you when we were doing close to $500 ,000 in construction sales and now we’re over $1 million so far this year and we’re looking at probably close to $2 million by the year end. So it’s been amazing actually. We have over 10 employees now and everything’s just kind of just clicking along.

a bunch. I think we had probably 20 or 30 within just this last month of calls that came in from Google. So it’s invaluable. I mean, we’ve changed so much because of that. With that website, everybody sees that and they say, wow, that’s very professional. And so we do.

We get critiqued quite a bit about it. And it is very, very important to have, for sure. We live in Casper, Wyoming and we’ll go to Glenrock and Douglas. Matter of fact, I have just this last couple weeks gotten several calls from Glenrock and Douglas because they have no contractors there. So yeah, I’m reaching out to them and it’s pretty local. Everything else around here is quite a ways away, so that’s pretty much it for us.

Oh it’s been huge and you know I never did before but we are constantly now every week and thankful for it. the for the coaching because every week we’re on top of that getting everything in so no it’s been it’s been really good because it’s I can see everything as far as where we have been and where we are where we’re going so coaching is is very important and just a couple years ago everything was in my head now i’m starting to get it into these systems thankful for you guys for that because i would have never done it i could i don’t know if i could have done it actually by myself so folks if you’re watching this show You can do it, Scott, though, but you’re doing it. You’re in the flow. Someone’s watching this right now and they’re going, I don’t know. Success isn’t for me. Trust me, folks.

I grew up around this kind of thinking. People say, I don’t know. Success isn’t for me. I don’t have what it takes. I’m too old. I’m too young. I live in Wyoming.

I live in Oklahoma. You don’t understand how it is in Wyoming. You don’t understand how it is in California. You don’t get what it’s like in Texas. It’s too cold. It’s too hot.

I’m too old. I’m too young. I don’t know enough. I know too much. I’m overqualified. I’m underqualified.

I don’t have what it takes. What do you say, Scott? someone who says, I don’t know if I can do this. What do you say? I’ve been there. I know what that was like.

So yeah, no, you just gotta, you gotta go. The coaching is the only way. Cause we can’t do it by ourselves. I know that that’s huge. So yeah, just two years ago, we were making right around 500 ,000 this year will be almost two, 2 million. So it’s been a big growth.

Can you talk about what it’s meant to you and your family now having systems and a team of people to do the systems? And it’s not just you doing the work anymore. Yeah, that’s been huge too for me because I was always the only one, not the only one, but it was always in my head. Everything that we did was from what we were doing as far as and Crystal together, but now it’s huge. I mean, we have never marketed, we have never asked for any assistance outside until you guys came along.

Now it’s just blown up. You’re saying you’re saying that people who are reaching out to you because of your online brand as a contractor Finding you and then now seeking you out to work for you. Yeah. Oh, yeah. So we have yeah almost every day I have one call or no or more with guys who want to come to work for me. So yeah, it’s been helping with employment also No, it does seem like a lot of money, but it’s money well spent.

I don’t think I’ve ever even missed a $1 ,700. I mean, you guys do so much more for me that it’s very well worth it. We, just so simple. That’s what the main reason why we chose to go with YouTube is because it was just in, you know, you invited us in and basically now with Sean, it’s kind of like a family. So we’re all working together. So it’s, it was good.

Have you been to a workshop yet? Have you been to the conferences? Yep. We went to one. How was the conference? How was it?

We loved it. Yeah, it was fun. Yeah. A lot of people. It’s pretty awesome. Well, folks, on today’s edition of the Thrive Time Show, we’re showcasing a wonderful client that’s having massive success.

Why? Because he’s diligently following a proven system. You see, the path to success It should not be confusing. It shouldn’t be vague. It shouldn’t feel like you’re on a spiritual, mystical journey up the plateau to a proverbial mystery. No, it should feel like you’re following a proven step -by -step path.

And today’s client is diligently implementing a proven system to grow a wonderful company called WeBuildItUSA . com. I invite everybody. I invite everyone to check out that website, WeBuildItUSA .com. With com. With that being said, Scott, welcome onto the Thrive Time Show.

How are you, sir? Good. How are you guys? We are doing great. Sean, are you doing great? Oh, I’m fired up today, excited to be talking with you, my friend.

Now, Scott, I’m going to ask you some questions because people out there want to verify you’re not a hologram. Could you share with us your first and last name and the name of your company, sir? So I’m Scott Padilla and it’s Crystal and I actually have the company and it’s We Build It USA. And how did you originally hear about the Thrive Time Show and the one -on -one business coaching that we do for business owners? Actually, I’ve been following Clay, you, for a long time. And so, yeah, we just decided, we knew that the business coaching was there for us, and we just kind of put it aside and put it aside and said, all right, we’re going to do it.

So we’ve, what, two years ago now, Sean? Two years? Yeah. Yeah. Well, I mean, I think actually, I think it’s been based on the tracking sheet. It’s around 16 months actually.

So not quite yet. Yeah. Which is even, even better for the growth that you’ve had. Right. Now I’m looking at the tracking sheet. That’s kind of the world I live in.

Um, Scott, do you want to comment on the growth that you’ve had? Cause it looks like from, from what I’m seeing right now that you guys have grown the business by 179%. Is that, is that accurate, sir? Yes, sir. Yes. We came to you when we were doing close to $500 ,000 in construction sales, and now we’re over $1 million so far this year, and we’re looking at probably close to $2 million by the year end.

Yes. Beyond numbers, how would you describe how the growth has impacted you and your wife or your business or your family? How would you describe that growth has impacted you? It’s been amazing, actually. We have over 10 employees now and everything’s just kind of just clicking along, thanks to Sean, because I couldn’t have done it myself. I know I’ve been, you know, doing construction for a long time and it’s just been, you know, it’s not a struggle, but it’s just a word of mouth.

Everything was just coming to us. Whenever we had a job, we would go out and finish it and work on it. Yeah, it’s been great. Now, I’m going to try to frame today’s show in three parts. Part one is if you’re watching this show and you’re wanting to grow your business, there’s offense. And Sean, a lot of people get excited about that.

That’s marketing, branding, generating sales. Oh, yeah. Then the second phase is defense, accounting. Tracking expenses a lot of people shy away from that part and then there’s that third phase which is your special teams, you know running It requires a special team to make your special dream turn into reality So you got offense which is marketing you got defense, which is accounting you got special teams, which is managing the team Let’s start with the the offense part the the system is that we’ve taught, we teach every client a three -legged marketing stool, or you need to have three ways in which you generate leads, three ways to generate leads from your ideal and likely buyers. And Sean has bragged on you saying that every week when you guys hop on that call, you don’t shy away from getting video testimonials from real clients or gathering objective reviews, because every single week it’s VISMD, so video testimonials, images, search engine content, more Google reviews, and then D, we do those diagnostic updates on your website every month. And Sean says, he always brags on you, he says, you guys show up when it’s time to bring videos, images, search engine, more Google reviews.

I want to ask you, how has it impacted you knowing that you have a simple plan that you have to just implement every week? on the location doing a video testimony or you know all the different things showing the the projects that we have and it’s not it’s not pretty but we’re we’re doing it so the picture is the same way they’re not they’re not professional pictures at all it’s just a nice you know it’s just a shot of what we’re doing so Scott how often do people tell you that they are finding you on Google or on the internet as a result of the Activities and action steps that we’ve been coaching you through very often. I get this last week I had five people that called me this last week that have showed up either on the website or from just a Google call How would you contrast you the amount of traffic you’re getting now in terms of Google leads versus what you used to get before working with us? zero to A bunch. I think we had probably 20 or 30 within just this last month of calls that came in from Google. So Sean, I want to ask you this.

You’re always bragging on Scott behind the scenes. What makes Scott so great to work with when it comes to the offense, the marketing side of the business? Well, he’s, um, you know, he, he, like many contractors has, he does have a team of 10 people. And so usually it’s very difficult to like get a new habit going, but he jumped right into getting the images and the videos we needed to help him rank in search engine right away. And he’s been very consistent every single week with those things. They’ve went to trade shows, which, uh, you know, a lot of people kind of don’t want to go to trade shows.

Maybe they think they don’t work or whatever, but, uh, man, they cleaned up. at the trade show the last two years using some of the moves that your trade show domination system helped them with. And we’re still working on getting through some of those leads today. Those are things that people typically don’t want to do, but they have a great impact. And Scott, just as a very coachable client, has leaned into that. Scott, what’s it mean to you knowing that you have a team of people behind Sean and myself?

We have a whole team. So when you pay $1 ,700 a month for the one -on -one coaching services we provide, what’s it like for you knowing, hey, I’ve got a team of people that are going to be handling the online marketing and search engine work for you? It’s invaluable. I mean, we’ve changed so much because of that. With that website, everybody sees that and they say, wow, that’s very professional. And so we do, we get critiqued quite a bit about it.

And it is very, very important to have, for sure. Now you happen to be I’m gonna pull it up on the screen so people can visit your website You are not in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and I would say 99 % of our clients are not in Oklahoma as well When you first reached out to us and we did that a consultation I had no hesitation working with the guy that’s not in Tulsa Can you share where in Wyoming? What are the parts of Wyoming that you service? Like what are the the what are the market areas that you provide service for at build at USA comm sir? It’s mostly Casper. We live in Casper, Wyoming.

We’ll go to Glenrock and Douglas. As a matter of fact, I have, just this last couple of weeks, gotten several calls from Glenrock and Douglas because they have no contractors there. Yeah, I’m reaching out to them. And it’s pretty local. Everything else around here is quite a ways away. So that’s pretty much it for us.

Now, phase number two, we talked about offense. OK, now we’re going to defense. I love defense. Sean loves defense. I love defense. Scott, I think you’re starting to like defense as well.

Maybe you always like defense. But defense is where you’re going. trying to keep the opposition from scoring you know and in business you’re trying to keep money from slipping away you’re trying to make sure you’re actually making a profit you’re trying to make sure you know where money’s going and I always tell clients you have to measure what you treasure because by default you will slack or you don’t track can you talk about the importance of having a weekly tracking sheet and having Sean incessantly obsessively from an accountability perspective, just absolutely maniacally obsessing on making sure that tracking sheet is updated. Can you talk about the impact that’s made on your business? Oh, it’s been huge. And, you know, I never did before, but we are constantly now every week and thankful for the coaching because every week we’re on top of that, getting everything in.

So, no, it’s been really good because I can see everything as far as where we have been and where we’re going. Yeah. Yeah. I just wanted to say on that. I mean, the amount of tracking systems that we’ve implemented is pretty impressive. They’ve got a job audit tracker to make sure they’re making the money that they think that they’re paying now or they think they’re making, you know, you estimate you’re going to make a hundred bucks.

They now have a tool that makes sure they know if they didn’t make a hundred bucks, why? So they can improve. We’ve also got a system for tracking the entire business from what they’re doing to build the brand, to the leads, to the sales, all the way through their workflow. And then the final scoreboard of are we profitable net profit? Yay. Are we growing?

Yes or no. We’ve got that in place now. We have a whole lead tracking system that we are also using very tightly to stay on top of the massive amount of leads that are coming in. And I feel like I’m missing one. We got leads, we got projects. Oh yeah.

The project tracker of like just timelines, making sure we’re staying on pace. We’ve got all those in place now. Now I want to, I want to brag on Sean and Scott. I want to brag on both of you guys, cause you’re, you’re doing this. I’m going to pull up this word here. I want to share this word.

this is a word I grew up without money I grew up you might call that poor we’re gonna call it and there’s this word that people used to always tell me and Scott maybe you didn’t feel the same way but I felt this way I was going to school they always talked about learning and I’m going I love that my professor, my teacher in college, high school, whatever, they’re so excited about teaching me about the papyrus and the Mesopotamia and the cuneiform and the periodic table and the theoretical black holes and what might happen with nanotechnology and the future. And I go, that’s great. I love it. It’s a place for history. Meanwhile, I want to focus on earning. I love the word learning, but in that word, I see earning and I just want to focus on earning and I think that’s the difference about our business coaching program versus every other program I’ve ever seen before is I fundamentally believe that Napoleon Hill was right when he said knowledge without application is meaningless.

Scott, could you talk about what it’s meant to you having somebody like Sean and then my entire team or even myself through our conferences, podcasts, one -on -one coaching who’s helped you focus on actually earning and not just learning new concepts. Yeah. No, Sean has been great. We, uh, yeah, I don’t know where it would be without Sean, to be honest with you. Coaching is, is very important. And just a couple of years ago, everything was in my head.

Now I’m starting to get it into the systems. Thankful for you guys for that, because I would have never done it. I could, I don’t know if I could have done it actually by myself. So. And somebody might have missed it earlier, because sometimes people hear numbers, and they kind of black out, and they go, I’m not used to it. Some people don’t think in numbers.

Some people do. Can you talk about, again, from just a number perspective, how much have you grown in your mind? How would you describe how much you’ve grown since you’ve started working with this over these past, like, 16 months? Well, what did we say hundred ninety? Hundred seventy nine percent. Hundred seventy nine percent, that’s huge.

So yeah, just two years ago we were making right around five hundred thousand, this year will be almost two, two million. So it’s been a big growth. Folks, if you’re watching this show, You can do it, Scott, though, but you’re doing it. You’re in the flow. Someone’s watching this right now, and they’re going, I don’t know. Success isn’t for me.

Trust me, folks. I grew up around this kind of thinking. People say, I don’t know. Success isn’t for me. I don’t have what it takes. I’m too old. I’m too young.

I live in Wyoming. I live in Oklahoma. You don’t understand how it is in Wyoming. You don’t understand how it is in California. You don’t get what it’s like in Texas. It’s too cold.

It’s too hot. I’m too old. I’m too young. I don’t know enough. I know too much. I’m overqualified.

I’m underqualified. I don’t have what it takes. What do you say, Scott? someone who says, I don’t know if I can do this. What do you say? I’ve been there.

I know what that was like. So yeah, no, you just gotta, you gotta go. The coaching is the only way. Cause we can’t do it by ourselves. I know that. Now, that third area is special teams.

Now, again, we could have a great conversation about marketing. Love that. That’s offense, marketing, branding. We love marketing. Folks, if you’re watching this, you know you love offense. Marketing, branding, sales, your vision.

Woo -hoo. Yeah. The business cards, branded hats, branded shirts, auto wraps. There’s part of us as men, as women entrepreneurs, we love Marketing we love offense second part those defense defenses, you know special team defenses is looking at the it’s kind of like we’re special teams and offense meat It’s it’s where the expenses are you have to track? No one really likes to do that part We talked about that but the third area is special teams Now, special teams is where you have to have a special team in order to make your special dream work. It requires teamwork to make the dream work.

What am I saying? You don’t have a team, Scott. I mean, it’s not just you, it’s a whole team. And Sean really has put an emphasis, and we put an emphasis on building systems and processes so that it’s a team. are not you can actually do the work so you can grow from me to we. Can you talk about what it’s meant to you and your family now having systems and a team of people to do the systems and it’s not just you doing the work anymore?

Yeah, that’s been huge, too, for me, because I was always the only one, not the only one, but it was always in my head. Everything that we did was from what, you know, we were doing as far as me and Crystal together. But now it’s where it’s huge. I mean, with all the mark, we have never marketed. We have never asked for, you know, any assistance outside until you guys came along. Now it’s just blown up.

Tremendous. You’re saying that people who are reaching out to you because of your online brand as a contractor, finding you and then now seeking you out to work for you. Yeah. Oh yeah. So we have, yeah, almost every day I have one call or no or more with guys who want to come to work for me. So it’s been helping with employment also.

Yeah. So if you’re watching this show again, folks, offense, defense, special teams, and I just, I want to encourage everybody out there. You have. what it takes to start and grow a successful company. Now, in part two of today’s show, I’m going to share with you a case study of a business. Imagine this scenario.

They had been in business for 35 plus years, and they could never, ever, ever somehow get past $13 million in sales. Every year, they’re stuck at $13 million. 35 years in business, and it was like this ceiling. They couldn’t get through the 13. They just couldn’t. And we helped them grow to $151 million in less than 40 months.

So from 13 million to 151 in less than 40 months. So I’m just telling you folks, the systems that Sean is helping Scott build right now These systems are helping Scott scale and it’s gonna continue to scale because it’s based on systems and processes It’s duplicatable. It’s repeatable. I’m Scott want to get your thoughts on this. What do you say to anybody out there?

That’s thinking about looking for a business coach and they’re going I don’t know 1700 hours a month $1 ,700, $1 ,700, you know, I could be spending that on Netflix or regrettable burritos at my local Chipotle. I could be renting a boat and going on a beer -fueled weekend celebration. I mean, $1 ,700 a month, that’s a lot of money. What do you say to somebody who’s kind of on the fence about investing $1 ,700 a month and increasing what they’re earning? No, it does seem like a lot of money, but it’s money well spent. I don’t think I’ve ever even missed a $1 ,700.

I mean, you guys do so much more for me that it’s very well worth it. And Sean, I want to give you the final word on this. Scott’s company, I’m going to pull up his website one more time here. Scott is what we call a diligent doer. This is a guy who’s not just a talker, this is a doer. The book of James in the Bible tells you, don’t just talk, but to do.

If you read the book of, I love the Bible, so if you read Hebrews chapter 11, this is kind of like the hall of fame or the heroes of the Bible, you know? And if you read Hebrews chapter 11, it celebrates these great men and women of the Bible who mixed their faith with action. They actually did the work. What makes Scott such a successful client, or in your mind, such a client that’s, what makes him such a joy to work with? Well, I mean, coachability when you’re a coach, You know, that’s a big deal. He’s very coachable and he doesn’t let pride get in the way of improving his business.

I think that’s huge. He wants to learn and he is wanting to engage with the systems. And even though sometimes it can be a little bit difficult, especially on the human side of getting these things implemented, he’s not like, he doesn’t have any give up in him. He’s just going to keep going. He’s not going to quit, which is something that is a rare quality that I really appreciate about him.

just copy that link and post it on your social media. That’ll help Scott’s website rank even higher in the search results, which will produce more sales for Scott and his wonderful family. So if you learned something at all today, go to webuildatusa . com and share a link to his website on your social media. The second thing I want you to do is just go to the website. Just going to his website will help his website rank higher in the search results.

Go to his website, click around, see their story, see their family, and recognize these are real people out there just like you who decided to go from wishing for success to achieving success. And all they did is they went to thrivetimeshow . com. They scheduled a free consultation. We talked on the phone for about a half hour. I explained to Scott the path.

He asked some questions about the path. His wonderful wife did too. And they prayed about it, thought about it, and they decided to move forward. Scott, my final question I have here for you is, how would you describe that initial 13 -point assessment? I think some people fear that if they get on a call, there’s going to be a high -pressure guy pushing something. We did our call.

I do every 13 -point assessment myself. How would you describe that initial 13 -point assessment? It was awesome. We just so simple. That’s what the main reason why we chose to go with you too, is because it was just in, you know, you invited us in. And basically, now with Sean, it’s kind of like a family.

So we’re all working together. So it’s, it was good. Have you been to a workshop? Have you been to the conferences? Yep, we went to conferences. How was the conference?

How was it? Oh, we loved it. Yeah, it was fun. Yeah, a lot of people. It’s pretty awesome. A lot of people.

Well, Scott, I really do appreciate your time, your energy. One more time, folks. Check out that website, that website. Again, I’ll pull it up on the screen. I want everyone to check out that website. I’m pulling up one more time here.

Again, folks, this is a great way to help Scott and his website there again. Scott, what’s your website? One more time for anybody who’s looking it up there, sir. Webuilditusa . com. OK, we’re pulling it up.

Webuilditusa . com. Webuilditusa . com. Check it out there, folks. Webuilditusa .

com. That’s Scott Padilla. That’s Sean Loman. Thank you guys so much for your time, for your energy. And Scott, I look forward to seeing you in person, hopefully at an in -person workshop, maybe in November. Yeah.

Sounds great. Thank you. See you later, Scott. Bye -bye. All right. See you.

Bye. 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. 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, 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 thought, man, there’s not much more I need to do. 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. 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. 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 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. 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. 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 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. 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 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.

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? 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 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, 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. 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. 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. 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. 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 investment. 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. 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.

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 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. Revolution Health and Wellness Clinic. Clay, my honor, my honor to be on your show. And thank you for all you do.

I hear the ripple effects from you are good ripple effects. You know what I mean? People rave about what they learn from you. So congratulations. 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 &D’s company for about five years now. And we started working with Thrive not too long ago. I’m 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 like such good insight, the resources they have for specific business questions. It’s all been really incredible. It’s been a great experience. So I’d recommend it to anybody. 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.

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 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 going to check my notes here. So in four months, my leads have tripled. I was getting 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. 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 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 interviewing every single week. It’s just been great and I don’t waste as much time on… low quality candidates anymore. And your coach will hold you accountable, which I love. Again, the tough love is really great. 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’d pay him a million dollars a month if I can, and maybe someday I’ll be able to, but I would just say go for 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, 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, you know, perseverance and, you know, working till 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, you know, 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 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 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. 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 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. They push harder. They’re trained. And as my rich dad always said, 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. I wanted to learn how to play Monopoly in real life. So he was my coach. But Clay Clark, man, he is one character. It’s a good one.

for 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, so 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. His client Clark starts his days at five o ‘clock in the morning. Oh, it’s incredible. Yeah.

He’s a machine. He’s a machine. But I have problems with my company starting at nine o ‘clock. He has hundreds of people showing up at 5 a . m. in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

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 is 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’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.

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 amazing. For 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. 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. It’s a good word for 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, so you know, he’s endorsed by his mother and he’s doing magnificent work. So it was great meeting you out there and all that.

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, young 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. That’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 -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. 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? 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, 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.

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.

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. And so it can 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. 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.

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 to get books. This is a two -day interactive 15 Think about this, folks. It’s two days. Each day starts at 7 a . m.

and it goes until 5 p . m. So from 7 a . m. to 5 p . m.

, 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, 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, to stretch and to make it entertaining when you’re stretching. 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 snow cone, uh i mean there’s just you had a crocodile one time that was pretty interesting you know i i I should write that down. And I’m sorry for that one guy.

We lost the crocodile. We duct taped its face. So that’s right. We duct taped a baby crocodile. Yeah. Duct tape around the mouth so it didn’t bite anybody.

But it was really cool passing that thing around. And I should 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 U . S. debt clock that identifies 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 3 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 you can see. see 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, um, 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. 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. Simple.

I keep it simple. I literally bring him the same food both days for lunch. It’s Ted Esconzido’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 term. 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.

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 No, I mean, this stuff is not revolutionary.

It’s not this crazy walk on hot coals and all this stuff. It’s just real, real stuff. It’s going to be a blasty blast. There’s no upsells. Aaron, I could not be more excited about this event. I think it is incredible.

That is, I’ve tried it, don’t do it.

3 .45 million. I got those stats before I got on here. So you’ve grown by 3 .45 million? Yeah. 3 million, 450 ,000. Would that be like if you took the combined revenue, maybe doubled it?

Have we gone up by about the same?
