00:00:01.443 --> 00:00:07.262
Hello, hello, hello and welcome back to another episode of Electricpreneur Secrets, the Electricians podcast.
00:00:07.262 --> 00:00:13.564
And we're back with another episode in this series of how we would start a new electrical biz in 2024.
00:00:13.564 --> 00:00:19.658
But today's episode around well, pricing and prospecting.
00:00:19.658 --> 00:00:24.396
I'm your host, clay Neumeyer, with me, as always, my esteemed co-host, joseph Lucchani.
00:00:24.396 --> 00:00:29.256
We're the Electricpreneurs, just a couple of master electricians with business addictions.
00:00:29.256 --> 00:00:32.243
Welcome to your freemium daily coach.
00:00:32.243 --> 00:00:34.389
Call the admission cost for you.
00:00:34.389 --> 00:00:41.332
Sit back, you know, loan us your time, loan us your attention and promise to take everything here and take action.
00:00:41.332 --> 00:00:50.286
Report those wins back to us, as we are so pleased to keep showing up to help you launch this business with this new launch series.
00:00:50.286 --> 00:00:51.530
Joseph, how are you doing today, brother?
00:00:52.121 --> 00:01:03.386
Dude, I'm feeling amazing and you know something you said I just wanted to touch on before going into anything else, because I feel like you started right out of the gate with something which was loan us your attention.
00:01:03.386 --> 00:01:06.037
What loan could you get anywhere else?
00:01:06.037 --> 00:01:07.745
That's going to give you a 10x plus result.
00:01:08.480 --> 00:01:08.861
That's nice.
00:01:08.861 --> 00:01:10.469
The words just came out.
00:01:10.469 --> 00:01:14.168
Man, I don't know there's a calling to say what I say every time it's not recorded.
00:01:14.168 --> 00:01:20.849
The only fancy shit is this banner down here, which sometimes has important messages like new launch series.
00:01:20.849 --> 00:01:24.483
Otherwise, no, I compliment you on picking that one out.
00:01:24.483 --> 00:01:25.186
That is nice.
00:01:25.186 --> 00:01:25.789
I like that.
00:01:26.361 --> 00:01:27.245
Nice, how you holding up today.
00:01:28.040 --> 00:01:29.644
I'm doing fantastic man.
00:01:29.644 --> 00:01:37.712
That might be partially due to my number one coach cup full of fresh caffeine over here warming me up today.
00:01:37.712 --> 00:01:40.707
And you, how are you doing?
00:01:40.707 --> 00:01:41.310
What's going on?
00:01:41.921 --> 00:01:45.375
Honestly, I'm feeling blessed, you know, every single day that goes by.
00:01:45.375 --> 00:02:02.802
It's not that these are easy Like life isn't easy but I'm choosing to approach it from a place of saying there is a plan and I'm doing everything that I can to line up with that and I'm doing everything I can to serve the best of my ability and if I can just do that, everything else will fall into place.
00:02:02.802 --> 00:02:04.147
Serve and thrive.
00:02:06.143 --> 00:02:07.105
Nice touch, man.
00:02:07.105 --> 00:02:08.049
Nice touch.
00:02:08.049 --> 00:02:17.057
Speaking of which, assuming you're an electricpreneur, following this series, the new launch series, and you heard all the episodes before.
00:02:17.057 --> 00:02:22.663
Then you heard us talking about that consistent activity and maybe some of the grace you just shared might be important.
00:02:22.663 --> 00:02:23.286
I don't know.
00:02:23.286 --> 00:02:26.938
It's truly to say you didn't get the 75 e hard.
00:02:26.938 --> 00:02:27.641
You can grab that.
00:02:27.641 --> 00:02:37.131
But we're going to have another value piece giveaway today that's also going to be attached to this super assembly this micro course.
00:02:37.131 --> 00:02:44.271
Really, it's a mini course for how we would and how you should, in our opinion, start an electrical biz in 2024.
00:02:44.312 --> 00:02:48.052
I think this thing's going to be a huge value piece for everyone listening.
00:02:48.052 --> 00:02:54.179
So if you got anything from the price tool that we'll discuss today, go ahead and throw a comment up.
00:02:54.179 --> 00:03:04.992
If you're engaging with us, live in the Facebook group and or you're listening to it at your favorite podcast channel we're everywhere, man Just reach out and let us know so we can send this tool to you.
00:03:04.992 --> 00:03:06.846
Sounds good, ready to go?
00:03:06.846 --> 00:03:14.114
That said, man, we talked about last episode really getting to this place biz structure.
00:03:14.114 --> 00:03:22.652
That was hard to pull apart, but we stayed true to our cause here, our mission, which is to get you, the electricpreneur or us in this business.
00:03:22.652 --> 00:03:30.450
We're defining and developing here a sale like two cash let's get it to cash and let's get it sustainable.
00:03:30.450 --> 00:03:42.354
Of course, we just had a laugh back beyond this episode, in the backstage, if you will, because in 2024, there's an incredible asset available that we just didn't have prior to this.
00:03:43.939 --> 00:03:44.000
Yup.
00:03:45.144 --> 00:03:51.971
It's this, it's service, sup electrical and it's this pricing guide that we're literally going to give you for free and that's going to help you out today.
00:03:51.971 --> 00:04:02.313
Here's why pricing is so important, though so important I have personally found when starting a new business.
00:04:02.313 --> 00:04:10.527
Remember my first business when I was 18 was like literally, oh, I'm going to sell concrete door to door until someone wants.
00:04:10.527 --> 00:04:11.972
What a price.
00:04:11.972 --> 00:04:19.901
And you're like, oh yeah, somehow I completely forgot that I've got to make an estimate for what this work will cost so that they can even buy it.
00:04:20.985 --> 00:04:25.161
And as surprising as that is, I think a lot of people actually still encounter this.
00:04:25.161 --> 00:04:28.572
In the infancy of a business, it's like, oh yeah, how much is that?
00:04:28.572 --> 00:04:32.064
Well, I could do it for $45 an hour.
00:04:34.000 --> 00:04:34.543
It breaks my heart.
00:04:34.543 --> 00:04:44.122
It really really does, because when you think about it, what that communicates to the client is either A you're not experienced, because you don't know what this thing should cost.
00:04:44.122 --> 00:04:49.244
B you're not established because you don't have a set rate for what things are going to cost.
00:04:49.244 --> 00:04:54.903
And three, it shows you didn't intend on actually serving them today because you couldn't even come up with a number.
00:04:54.903 --> 00:04:57.291
What were you planning on doing today?
00:04:59.086 --> 00:04:59.848
valuable insights.
00:04:59.848 --> 00:05:05.375
So the next question is well like, if I'm new, how do I know how much stuff costs?
00:05:05.375 --> 00:05:10.069
You already have Spoken to an accountant, mind you.
00:05:10.069 --> 00:05:11.976
You've already spoken to a lawyer.
00:05:11.976 --> 00:05:14.545
All these people have their little expenses attached.
00:05:14.545 --> 00:05:17.391
You're already running a tally bootstrap or not?
00:05:17.391 --> 00:05:19.937
We might be in the hole about five grand at this point.
00:05:19.937 --> 00:05:28.798
Very likely might need to get some cash coming in Tute sweet as we say up here in Canada, right, little French for you, meaning right now.
00:05:28.798 --> 00:05:30.290
Do not delay.
00:05:30.290 --> 00:05:33.004
We need to make some sales and that's why this is where we're at.
00:05:33.004 --> 00:05:43.670
So we need to be able to project some of the costs, and I actually have to revisit something we already began to unpack, joe, if that's all right, please by all means go for it.
00:05:44.211 --> 00:05:52.971
Do you remember the other day when we talked about how like I really want to encourage people, even if you're a sole proprietor, to pay yourself first?
00:05:52.971 --> 00:05:54.028
Oh my, god yeah.
00:05:54.028 --> 00:06:01.879
Have you ever heard of financial advice or read a money book that didn't say these magic words pay yourself first.
00:06:03.504 --> 00:06:06.812
Personally, I haven't experienced that from any credible source.
00:06:06.812 --> 00:06:25.370
Just because the thing is, people seem to forget that they're in business to pay themselves, like, yes, you're here to serve a cause, but if you don't even account for taking money at the end to pay for your expenses or your business or your family's needs, why are you getting up in the morning and doing this?
00:06:25.370 --> 00:06:26.732
Is this a charitable donation?
00:06:26.732 --> 00:06:27.132
Every day?
00:06:28.615 --> 00:06:30.781
Hmm, valid, it's valid man.
00:06:30.781 --> 00:06:38.560
So I want you, I want to challenge you, to look into, and as per our pricing tool, first and foremost your personal salary requirements.
00:06:38.560 --> 00:06:47.714
How much do I need to earn and not just a burden of like, here's all my expenses, month to month, because we want to go beyond that.
00:06:47.714 --> 00:06:53.168
I don't want you to have just a life where there's more month at the end of the money, the money at the end of the month.
00:06:53.168 --> 00:06:55.714
I want you to have the life.
00:06:55.714 --> 00:06:58.564
Begs the question what's the life?
00:06:58.564 --> 00:07:00.028
What's the life that you want?
00:07:00.028 --> 00:07:06.774
And that life has a minimum budget and we want to pay you that budget so that you can have that life.
00:07:06.774 --> 00:07:08.904
Or what's the point of this business?
00:07:08.904 --> 00:07:09.185
Even?
00:07:09.185 --> 00:07:09.910
Am I wrong here?
00:07:09.930 --> 00:07:11.014
No, I don't think you're wrong.
00:07:11.014 --> 00:07:35.875
I think that unfortunately and this happens in a lot of ways in our upbringing those of us that were coming up in a scenario where we didn't have a lot of money money becomes an uncomfortable conversation topic, and then something that's uncomfortable is often worked around, where people will say well, I can't really discuss my finances with others, and without that there's no one giving outside input, which means the box always stares with a narrow view.
00:07:35.875 --> 00:07:41.235
So the first thing we have to overcome is our ability of being willing to talk about money.
00:07:43.343 --> 00:08:14.348
If that doesn't get addressed, nothing else can follow after that 100%, man 100%, and we're getting so close to the planning aspect of this, but still with the sale in mind, really a lot of this really needs to be brought back to reality, even with a bit of like a 3 to 5 year plan, and the reason I say that is if you're feeling compelled right now to pay yourself 250,000 dollars out of the gate, well, I challenge that as well Expenses plus savings plus nest egg.
00:08:14.348 --> 00:08:19.894
And then highlight the areas of my life that are inadequate to where I feel I should be today.
00:08:19.894 --> 00:08:33.715
That might lead you to 80 to 100 to 120k to start, and that's okay In some cases, and maybe in the future, when you're listening to this, with inflation and given your circumstances, maybe that number is 150k.
00:08:33.715 --> 00:08:40.335
What I really want to urge you to do here is define the difference between needs and wants.
00:08:40.335 --> 00:08:43.049
Right, where are we?
00:08:43.071 --> 00:08:43.150
Okay?
00:08:43.150 --> 00:08:43.815
What do we need as a family?
00:08:43.815 --> 00:08:46.687
Where is that line?
00:08:46.687 --> 00:08:51.188
And then make a plan out from Need to want.
00:08:51.188 --> 00:08:52.235
Think of it like a sliding scale.
00:08:52.235 --> 00:09:06.000
Right, because you don't want to suffocate your business either, but either way, whatever that need is today, with the investments and the savings, nest egg, right, you need to charge that.
00:09:06.000 --> 00:09:10.990
You need to factor that into your price, because if you don't get paid that, how is this business going to survive?
00:09:12.057 --> 00:09:12.600
It's just not.
00:09:12.600 --> 00:09:13.943
That's the only problem.
00:09:13.943 --> 00:09:26.115
You run into these situations where you don't invest the right things or you overdraw from what you don't have and you can't take what you don't have because that just leaves the loaning 100%.
00:09:27.259 --> 00:09:35.955
So just as a quick guide again, you guys can get our value piece is going to walk you through all this, but establishing that personal salary amount, then we're going to go into the cost of business.
00:09:35.955 --> 00:09:47.605
There's already some suggestions here, like some of the little basics that you've already uncovered and some of the things you still need to cover, like if you don't have your general liability insurance, you're bonding.
00:09:47.605 --> 00:09:58.381
Yet these all have little expenses that we need to accommodate and accomplish in your pricing, because if your customers don't pay for it, who is, unfortunately, you?
00:09:58.381 --> 00:09:59.888
That's the problem.
00:09:59.888 --> 00:10:01.938
Again.
00:10:01.938 --> 00:10:08.774
Instead of breaking this down entirely, what I'm going to suggest is you grab this value piece, because we've got a ton of suggested numbers in here.
00:10:08.774 --> 00:10:19.495
Now I will say everyone in our program is somewhere between 300 and 600 dollars an hour roughly In and as a simple service rate which this exercise will help you get to.
00:10:19.495 --> 00:10:24.294
Have we said enough about pricing or do we need to keep going into any aspect of that?
00:10:26.380 --> 00:10:36.388
I would say the only thing that we need to touch further from this is that we need to make sure that people aren't afraid to charge what they need to charge, because that comes into it where.
00:10:36.408 --> 00:10:51.360
I'm sure when you said that we're between three to six hundred dollars an hour, people are probably shaking their boots like there's no way that will be justifiable in our area, and I just want to take a step back from that situation and say Clarity, actually, even better.
00:10:51.360 --> 00:11:11.471
Seek clarity, not confidence, because you can be confident that no one is paying that in your area, but the clarity would reveal that the expenses that you need as a startup Offset it enough to where the hundred to hundred fifty dollars an hour isn't sustainable even at your level, then what are the odds that anyone else is doing it at that level as well?
00:11:11.471 --> 00:11:16.003
It just cannot be done, because numbers won't lie to you.
00:11:16.003 --> 00:11:18.769
People may lie, numbers won't lie.
00:11:18.769 --> 00:11:34.647
So if your numbers are saying this is what you need to charge and you're not driving a Lamborghini or living outside your means, the odds are that the majority of the people in your area are either struggling and making no profit or they are charging that amount.
00:11:34.647 --> 00:11:36.274
You're just not exposed to it yet.
00:11:36.293 --> 00:11:40.158
I love that man so important to and and and.
00:11:40.158 --> 00:11:42.606
Ultimately, you're right that had to be in this episode.
00:11:42.606 --> 00:11:54.385
If you have that price shock and granted, we throw an arbitrary number, take the price exercise challenge and find out what you need to charge based on the numbers you see for growth, for your burdens, for your business, for your future.
00:11:54.385 --> 00:12:06.845
Most people stick to the competitive 80 to $115 an hour time the material in their marketplace Simply because they fear a price objection.
00:12:07.336 --> 00:12:11.787
They fear multiple price objections that would amount to no work on the schedule.
00:12:11.787 --> 00:12:20.585
But let me ask you worse of two evils a price objection or Realizing at the end of the month you don't have enough money to pay your bills.
00:12:21.735 --> 00:12:30.335
You know there's nothing worse than winning a job that sinks you, and I know that you got a personal story with that.
00:12:30.335 --> 00:12:38.244
But you know it just comes down to the thought of saying I would rather have no money and no work, then no money and a ton of work.
00:12:38.244 --> 00:12:44.221
Because the line is is that you know what, if you're not making money on it, you're literally just moving things sideways.
00:12:44.975 --> 00:13:05.210
And I would rather get one call that actually pays than ten calls that just move money sideways 100%, and the beautiful thing that's built right into this pricing exercise that we're giving away for free again Reach out, ask for the pricing tool is that we're giving this simple service rate, which is a whole other topic that we've got to break out.
00:13:05.210 --> 00:13:30.760
In this next episode, I think, joe, to talk about the price book, the deficiency there, how that leaves people, you know, again looking for money at the end of the month, running out of time, with empty holes in the schedule, and that ties perfectly into the other part of this episode which we're gonna rapid-fire, this thing Prospecting 101 and, as a bootstrap mentality, quickest path to cash.
00:13:30.760 --> 00:13:32.485
I know you've got some ideas.
00:13:32.946 --> 00:13:43.549
I've got a huge Teed up home run ready to smash out of the park that most people completely overlook, and how that could feed you for years into your business.
00:13:43.549 --> 00:13:46.143
You want cracker second crack.
00:13:46.845 --> 00:13:49.414
I was gonna say you've got my interest at this point.
00:13:49.414 --> 00:13:53.510
So I was gonna say, if you've got a home run already lined up, who am I to say no to that?
00:13:54.033 --> 00:14:00.107
Okay, man, prospecting is the fundamental asset to a sale.
00:14:00.107 --> 00:14:04.215
Mm-hmm, you've got to have someone who's interested in your service.
00:14:04.215 --> 00:14:10.969
The great news is remember earlier on, when we decided that we were gonna dedicate our electrical company to serving homeowners.
00:14:10.969 --> 00:14:13.322
Mm-hmm as a service provider.
00:14:14.379 --> 00:14:14.844
How many of?
00:14:14.924 --> 00:14:15.875
us know homeowners.
00:14:15.875 --> 00:14:19.846
I'm your you're a homeowner.
00:14:19.846 --> 00:14:21.089
Our parents were homeowners.
00:14:21.089 --> 00:14:22.172
Our uncles a homeowner.
00:14:22.172 --> 00:14:37.434
Our brothers, sisters, our friends, the people we go to school with the people we went to school Everyone in your darn Rolodex is a homeowner, and if they're in your immediate area, then they deserve to know about your new endeavor, don't they?
00:14:38.323 --> 00:14:39.394
Mm-hmm, so this is kind of two-fold.
00:14:40.924 --> 00:14:46.014
But what I'm gonna do is for this parallel, we're gonna abandon all talks of even social media right now.
00:14:46.014 --> 00:14:50.095
We're gonna talk about boots on the ground, getting a sale, with no fancy tricks.
00:14:50.095 --> 00:14:54.350
You don't need to know anything except the people you already know.
00:14:54.350 --> 00:14:55.254
That sound fair.
00:14:55.254 --> 00:14:58.461
Yeah, I'm with this Simple formula.
00:14:58.461 --> 00:15:02.130
I literally want you to go through the people you know.
00:15:02.130 --> 00:15:04.018
If you're using Facebook as an address book these days, that's fine.
00:15:04.018 --> 00:15:18.052
Use your phone and Start touching base like five to ten minute calls, with every single person who owns a home I don't even care what age the home is with the simple intent to do just a few things.
00:15:18.052 --> 00:15:18.634
You ready for this?
00:15:18.634 --> 00:15:20.304
I'm ready.
00:15:20.304 --> 00:15:21.210
Late on me, brother.
00:15:21.210 --> 00:15:21.653
Hey, how's it going?
00:15:21.653 --> 00:15:22.075
It's been a while.
00:15:22.075 --> 00:15:27.364
How are things going for you?
00:15:27.364 --> 00:15:28.426
Hey, it's 2024.
00:15:28.426 --> 00:15:29.408
Now how was New Year's?
00:15:29.408 --> 00:15:33.941
And we could go back and forth, but very simple, small talk, right?
00:15:34.371 --> 00:15:34.592
Mm-hmm.
00:15:35.270 --> 00:15:37.798
All leading to just a couple of things.
00:15:37.798 --> 00:15:40.739
Wow, that sounds great.
00:15:40.739 --> 00:15:42.676
It's great to hear you're doing great things.
00:15:42.676 --> 00:15:45.996
Any other big changes planned for you in 2024?
00:15:45.996 --> 00:15:49.796
What happens after they answer that question?
00:15:50.809 --> 00:15:53.056
I love that because you're setting up a.
00:15:53.056 --> 00:15:54.780
I'd be happy to help for that.
00:15:54.780 --> 00:15:58.100
Did you know that currently we're able to do this with it?
00:15:58.100 --> 00:16:00.357
It's like it literally puts it on the tee for you.
00:16:00.357 --> 00:16:01.855
I'm happy to help.
00:16:01.855 --> 00:16:03.211
Did you know?
00:16:04.929 --> 00:16:08.658
And or the other way it goes is reciprocation anyway.
00:16:09.642 --> 00:16:09.822
Mm-hmm.
00:16:10.370 --> 00:16:15.980
So it's a no threat way to spread your message, because they might say yeah, no, that's us.
00:16:15.980 --> 00:16:16.581
What about you?
00:16:16.581 --> 00:16:19.450
Big changes, what's going on for 2024?
00:16:19.450 --> 00:16:22.317
The best way to get asked the question you want is to ask it.
00:16:23.309 --> 00:16:23.571
Mm-hmm.
00:16:24.610 --> 00:16:26.275
And when they reciprocate that, what are you going to say?
00:16:27.269 --> 00:16:31.297
I believe it or not, I'd love to tell you I have an amazing thing that's going on my life.
00:16:31.297 --> 00:16:32.438
I feel utterly blessed.
00:16:32.438 --> 00:16:33.179
Can I tell you about it?
00:16:34.322 --> 00:16:34.623
Awesome.
00:16:34.623 --> 00:16:35.604
Tell me about it, man.
00:16:35.604 --> 00:16:37.212
Tell me about service loop electrical.
00:16:37.212 --> 00:16:37.894
And what do you guys do?
00:16:38.837 --> 00:16:39.198
Oh man.
00:16:39.198 --> 00:16:40.712
I almost feel like a role.
00:16:40.712 --> 00:16:53.761
I almost feel like a role plays coming, because the fact is that, even though I know you and I are having a script not a scripted, but like a fake conversation I'm so compelled, just by the dynamic of the conversation, to be like oh well, how are things going?
00:16:53.761 --> 00:16:57.456
I could almost feel this poll that you want to ask.
00:16:57.456 --> 00:16:59.221
I'd love to tell you, mm-hmm.
00:17:00.429 --> 00:17:10.854
Now there's other pieces to this that are rooted in the why of what you're doing, in that vision, and, believe us, we're getting into this piece by piece, breaking it down and again there's parallels to this.
00:17:10.854 --> 00:17:14.041
But go back again to like Dorian's interview.
00:17:14.041 --> 00:17:26.287
We received a ton, a ton of positive feedback from Dorian's, rooting in the why and how he was able to just create interest in his community and someone that's actually just committed to service.
00:17:27.349 --> 00:17:27.671
Mm-hmm, and when?
00:17:27.691 --> 00:17:28.794
you say that to people?
00:17:28.794 --> 00:17:29.675
Yeah, no.
00:17:29.675 --> 00:17:34.998
As an electrician, I just I really saw the deficit in home residential service.
00:17:34.998 --> 00:17:41.935
Like serving homeowners, it just seems like everyone's rushing in, rushing out and they're not even offering to do the right things ever.
00:17:41.935 --> 00:17:53.276
They're not even leaving you a choice and just in saying that you begin to gain traction, even if those people don't hire you on the spot.
00:17:53.276 --> 00:17:57.435
Are they going to think of you the next time they hear about someone who needs an electrician at home?
00:17:58.057 --> 00:18:00.354
They will and the fact that you're already selling.
00:18:00.354 --> 00:18:03.213
They like trust and respect because, remember, they're already in your circle.
00:18:03.213 --> 00:18:08.019
Success isn't in your direct record, it's in your second to third degrees of network.
00:18:08.019 --> 00:18:22.607
So they may tell someone who will tell someone, as long as your values are there and you're someone that sticks out, as you know what I believe in what this guy's trying to do, and you know I may not need him right now, but hey, you know what I hear.
00:18:22.607 --> 00:18:23.531
You're looking for a generator.
00:18:23.531 --> 00:18:24.334
I know a guy for you.
00:18:27.049 --> 00:18:27.590
Bearing in mind.
00:18:27.590 --> 00:18:30.739
These are the people that already know, like and trust you.
00:18:31.401 --> 00:18:31.580
Mm-hmm.
00:18:32.269 --> 00:18:33.699
So the question is will they buy from you?
00:18:33.699 --> 00:18:34.684
Maybe?
00:18:34.684 --> 00:18:38.018
The answer is quite simple, they will.
00:18:38.018 --> 00:18:45.740
Now, prospecting is going to have a ton more that we're not going to be able to fit in this episode, but again, we also have a tool for that too.
00:18:45.740 --> 00:18:50.699
It's called service leads now, and I think we do have to unpack it again a little bit here.
00:18:50.699 --> 00:18:51.452
Joe, what do you say?
00:18:51.452 --> 00:18:54.531
We actually add an episode to prospecting, maybe?
00:18:54.692 --> 00:18:55.896
we can take next week off too.
00:18:55.896 --> 00:19:03.715
I think that's worth it, just because you can't talk about going into the gold and the river without even explaining how the pan works.
00:19:04.497 --> 00:19:04.657
Mm-hmm.
00:19:04.657 --> 00:19:05.660
Nice analogy.
00:19:05.660 --> 00:19:06.741
I like that.
00:19:06.741 --> 00:19:14.234
Anything you want to add to this episode for the prospecting and the point that we're currently at, because I kind of just took it, I stole it away from you.
00:19:14.656 --> 00:19:15.730
No, it's okay Once again.
00:19:15.730 --> 00:19:17.397
There's a reason why I love working with you, man.
00:19:17.397 --> 00:19:19.758
Well, several reasons, but one of them is I think you're brilliant.
00:19:19.758 --> 00:19:23.299
So when you take the mic and you're working, I don't feel like you're just spitting bullshit.
00:19:23.299 --> 00:19:27.674
You're doing the right thing and you're helping people with actionable stuff, so I'm never opposed to it.
00:19:28.869 --> 00:19:39.461
What I'd want to add to this whole pile really comes back to the authenticity and the belief, because a conviction creates conversations and conversations lead to relationships.
00:19:39.461 --> 00:19:47.978
So the conviction in which you originally bring this conversation into place with is going to determine how much traction it grabs.
00:19:47.978 --> 00:19:56.790
If you seem truly moved about something like there's a difference between yeah, no, I noticed there was a deficit in homeowners and homeowner service and the people just getting it out.
00:19:56.790 --> 00:20:00.662
Compared to Clay, I noticed there was such a difference.
00:00:01.443 --> 00:00:07.262
00:00:07.262 --> 00:00:13.564
00:00:13.564 --> 00:00:19.658
00:00:19.658 --> 00:00:24.396
00:00:24.396 --> 00:00:29.256
00:00:29.256 --> 00:00:32.243
00:00:32.243 --> 00:00:34.389
00:00:34.389 --> 00:00:41.332
00:00:41.332 --> 00:00:50.286
00:00:50.286 --> 00:00:51.530
00:00:52.121 --> 00:01:03.386
00:01:03.386 --> 00:01:06.037
00:01:06.037 --> 00:01:07.745
00:01:08.480 --> 00:01:08.861
00:01:08.861 --> 00:01:10.469
00:01:10.469 --> 00:01:14.168
00:01:14.168 --> 00:01:20.849
00:01:20.849 --> 00:01:24.483
00:01:24.483 --> 00:01:25.186
00:01:25.186 --> 00:01:25.789
00:01:26.361 --> 00:01:27.245
00:01:28.040 --> 00:01:29.644
00:01:29.644 --> 00:01:37.712
00:01:37.712 --> 00:01:40.707
00:01:40.707 --> 00:01:41.310
00:01:41.921 --> 00:01:45.375
00:01:45.375 --> 00:02:02.802
00:02:02.802 --> 00:02:04.147
00:02:06.143 --> 00:02:07.105
00:02:07.105 --> 00:02:08.049
00:02:08.049 --> 00:02:17.057
00:02:17.057 --> 00:02:22.663
00:02:22.663 --> 00:02:23.286
00:02:23.286 --> 00:02:26.938
00:02:26.938 --> 00:02:27.641
00:02:27.641 --> 00:02:37.131
00:02:37.131 --> 00:02:44.271
00:02:44.312 --> 00:02:48.052
00:02:48.052 --> 00:02:54.179
00:02:54.179 --> 00:03:04.992
00:03:04.992 --> 00:03:06.846
00:03:06.846 --> 00:03:14.114
00:03:14.114 --> 00:03:22.652
00:03:22.652 --> 00:03:30.450
00:03:30.450 --> 00:03:42.354
00:03:43.939 --> 00:03:44.000
00:03:45.144 --> 00:03:51.971
00:03:51.971 --> 00:04:02.313
00:04:02.313 --> 00:04:10.527
00:04:10.527 --> 00:04:11.972
00:04:11.972 --> 00:04:19.901
00:04:20.985 --> 00:04:25.161
00:04:25.161 --> 00:04:28.572
00:04:28.572 --> 00:04:32.064
00:04:34.000 --> 00:04:34.543
00:04:34.543 --> 00:04:44.122
00:04:44.122 --> 00:04:49.244
00:04:49.244 --> 00:04:54.903
00:04:54.903 --> 00:04:57.291
00:04:59.086 --> 00:04:59.848
00:04:59.848 --> 00:05:05.375
00:05:05.375 --> 00:05:10.069
00:05:10.069 --> 00:05:11.976
00:05:11.976 --> 00:05:14.545
00:05:14.545 --> 00:05:17.391
00:05:17.391 --> 00:05:19.937
00:05:19.937 --> 00:05:28.798
00:05:28.798 --> 00:05:30.290
00:05:30.290 --> 00:05:33.004
00:05:33.004 --> 00:05:43.670
00:05:44.211 --> 00:05:52.971
00:05:52.971 --> 00:05:54.028
00:05:54.028 --> 00:06:01.879
00:06:03.504 --> 00:06:06.812
00:06:06.812 --> 00:06:25.370
00:06:25.370 --> 00:06:26.732
00:06:26.732 --> 00:06:27.132
00:06:28.615 --> 00:06:30.781
00:06:30.781 --> 00:06:38.560
00:06:38.560 --> 00:06:47.714
00:06:47.714 --> 00:06:53.168
00:06:53.168 --> 00:06:55.714
00:06:55.714 --> 00:06:58.564
00:06:58.564 --> 00:07:00.028
00:07:00.028 --> 00:07:06.774
00:07:06.774 --> 00:07:08.904
00:07:08.904 --> 00:07:09.185
00:07:09.185 --> 00:07:09.910
00:07:09.930 --> 00:07:11.014
00:07:11.014 --> 00:07:35.875
00:07:35.875 --> 00:07:41.235
00:07:43.343 --> 00:08:14.348
00:08:14.348 --> 00:08:19.894
00:08:19.894 --> 00:08:33.715
00:08:33.715 --> 00:08:40.335
00:08:40.335 --> 00:08:43.049
00:08:43.071 --> 00:08:43.150
00:08:43.150 --> 00:08:43.815
00:08:43.815 --> 00:08:46.687
00:08:46.687 --> 00:08:51.188
00:08:51.188 --> 00:08:52.235
00:08:52.235 --> 00:09:06.000
00:09:06.000 --> 00:09:10.990
00:09:12.057 --> 00:09:12.600
00:09:12.600 --> 00:09:13.943
00:09:13.943 --> 00:09:26.115
00:09:27.259 --> 00:09:35.955
00:09:35.955 --> 00:09:47.605
00:09:47.605 --> 00:09:58.381
00:09:58.381 --> 00:09:59.888
00:09:59.888 --> 00:10:01.938
00:10:01.938 --> 00:10:08.774
00:10:08.774 --> 00:10:19.495
00:10:19.495 --> 00:10:24.294
00:10:26.380 --> 00:10:36.388
00:10:36.408 --> 00:10:51.360
00:10:51.360 --> 00:11:11.471
00:11:11.471 --> 00:11:16.003
00:11:16.003 --> 00:11:18.769
00:11:18.769 --> 00:11:34.647
00:11:34.647 --> 00:11:36.274
00:11:36.293 --> 00:11:40.158
00:11:40.158 --> 00:11:42.606
00:11:42.606 --> 00:11:54.385
00:11:54.385 --> 00:12:06.845
00:12:07.336 --> 00:12:11.787
00:12:11.787 --> 00:12:20.585
00:12:21.735 --> 00:12:30.335
00:12:30.335 --> 00:12:38.244
00:12:38.244 --> 00:12:44.221
00:12:44.975 --> 00:13:05.210
00:13:05.210 --> 00:13:30.760
00:13:30.760 --> 00:13:32.485
