Client Conversation with Randy Henry

Tuesday December 3rd 2019

This is an interview I did with Randy Henry at Thanksgiving 2018. At the time he had been in our program for a little over nine months.

So this is the story of his transformation last year - he has since this year gone from strength to strength, rebranding, combining other services, and on track to build an eight figure business in the next few years.

He has gone from burned out and wanting to give up, to a super confident businessman.

He has made the transformation from tech, to owner, to CEO thinking.

And it happened in a blink of an eye.

Something that Randy says in this interview is that mindset is everything - once you get that aligned, everything else falls into place.

And he is living proof of this.

We talk all the time about the fact that you are already good enough, you already know enough, and you already have the resources and the connections and the ability to succeed - so you only need to make a few small shifts to change everything.

If you change the way you look at things then the things you look at change.

The reason for sharing Randy’s story with you is to show you what is possible - immediate lasting change.

This is not a flash in the pan temporary improvement based upon some good marketing results off the back of some advertising that made his phone ring and was good only whilst it lasted.

This is a permanent change in thinking that will go with him for the rest of his life as his business evolves.

It is now as natural as blinking and breathing.

He knows his value.

Listen to his story - it is everything you want from your life and business. I know it is.

Randy’s advice - it’s all about mindset first, and knowing your numbers second.

I know he has some massive plans for 2020 and beyond, and I know he is going to smash it.

It is humbling to know that we have played a small part in opening the door of possibility for him so he could walk right through it and take his life and business by the horns and really live!

So congratulations Randy from me and Anthony, yours is a truly inspirational story.

Client Conversation with Andy Ervin

Tuesday December 3rd 2019

Back in the day - not that far back in the day, but a little while ago - there was a frustrated HVAC business owner called Andy.

Every day, Andy struggled with the challenge of working on his business instead of in his business. He wasn’t seeing the growth he wanted and there were days when he felt like jumping off a cliff.

One day, someone recommended the Foundation Kit to Andy. He got on a call with Nick to find out what it was all about and decided to get on board straight away.

Because of that, Andy got clear very quickly about what he needed to do and he started to work on the areas of his business with the biggest opportunities for change.

He was able to clear out the crap and get the right processes and systems in place that now means he has work booked for weeks in advance and a consistent income.

Today, Andy is on track to do 3x the revenue he did last year, and should finish this year at $3m.

Andy is thinking like a true CEO now, with clarity and focus.

He has stepped away from the edge of the cliff and is now climbing his own mountain of success.

Be more like Andy.
