www.3rdelementconsulting.comWed, 21 Apr 2021 - 110 - w/Josh Patrick Entrepreneur, Author, Thinking Partner
My guest Josh Patrick, is a no nonsense entrepreneur, business coach and wealth management planner all in one. With over 40 years in business he brings a ton of experience and know how to the table. We hit on some great points in our conversation. Everything from core values to building your business to sell and how to do it.
About Josh:
My main focus in life is helping private business owners create extraordinary value with their businesses and lives. I help create great outcomes using life experiences I’ve had during my almost forty years of running and being around my favorite people, private business owners. I’m a student, an entrepreneur and a curious observer of life.
WHAT’S REQUIRED FOR YOUR SUCCESS?I’ve learned that creating the outcomes you want requires that I listen and ask great questions. My job is to help you identify and attain what you want, why it’s important, who needs to help and how you’re going to reach your desired outcome.
You’ll need to be curious and willing to do a little work. I know how hard it is to make changes in what you’re doing now. I know how hard it is to learn to delegate and let others make mistakes. I want to help you learn how to do these things. It’s one of the two that will make your business really successful and even be able to be sold someday.
WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO LISTEN TO ME?
My specialty is working with owners of private businesses. It’s where I have the most interest and can add the most value. If you own a business and are interested in a coaching relationship as well as mentoring, I’m your guy.
If you’re an advisor to private businesses I’ve been doing this for twenty years with the advantage of having been a consumer of advisory services for twenty years before switching sides of the table. (In case you’ve been adding this up it means I’ve been obsessed with businesses for 40 years.)
I’ve owned a vending and food service company where I built the company from 1.5 employees to 90 employees before successfully selling the business. Along the way I made about a zillion mistakes that you can learn from and hopefully not make the same ones I made.

support@terryhale.comFri, 12 Mar 2021 - 99 - W/Inventor Rob Kessler-Million Dollar Collar
What a great interview with my guest Rob Kessler, inventor of the million dollar collar. We go through all the steps it took him from concept to distribution and so much more, including life balance and freedom. You'll truly enjoy this interview!
Rob Kessler is the inventor and co-founder of Million Dollar Collar, a relatively simple solution to an often overlooked problem which became glaringly obvious after viewing his wedding photos. He experienced extreme frustration from tugging at his brand new, freshly pressed shirt all day long but still left his shirt looking sloppy on the biggest day of his life.3 years of R&D and patenting of the product lead the passionate tie hater down an interesting journey. Nearly 100 shirts were ruined with all of the different materials tested. Just as he thought he had a winner, he would be slapped with a dose of reality. Kessler got his hands on every dress shirt he could in the quest to design a universal sized stay to fix what his company dubs "Placketitis" an affliction that no one is immune to no matter if the shirt is $20 or $200. Placketitis is the sinking, wrinkling, and folding of the placket of a casually worn dress shirt.
Prior to Million Dollar Collar, Rob built a screen printing and embroidery business from a spare bedroom in his house to over $1,000,000 in revenue before selling the company. NEWD Clothing Company, NEWD stands for Nothing Else Will Do, was never intended to be a screen printing company. As the name suggests, it actually started out as a clothing company, but after being overcharged by several other screen printers in town, Rob decided to buy the necessary equipment and teach himself how to print. Word soon spread about the high quality and great pricing and the printing business took over the clothing business. NEWD eventually upgraded its space from 750SF in Rob's basement to a 6,000 SF facility before being sold to focus 100% of his efforts on Million Dollar Collar.
Real Estate has always been a passion for Rob. So at the age of just 23, he got his license and began selling. By the age of 26, he had risen to top the 5% of salespeople in the largest real estate firm in Wisconsin, First Weber Group. He still engages in Real Estate transactions today, but now on a personal level and as a consultant to friends and family looking to invest.
Rob looks at the world through a different set of lenses than most people do which lead to his success in every sales job and with both of his own businesses. Delivering more than expected has always proven to be worth the effort. Finding hidden efficiencies has helped Rob stay ahead of the competition and grow multiple businesses at a time.
As the Inventor of Million Dollar Collar, Rob has been forced to look at a very antiquated industry and has had to be quite creative to get his vision across to his clients, and it seems to be working. Over 275,000 units were shipped in the first two years to nearly 16,000 clients in 115 countries.
Rob's sales experience in a number of high dollar industries including Diamonds, Real Estate and Automotive Sales has provided a unique blend of backgrounds to transition him into the fashion world. Lastly, Rob recently received his 50-TON Master Captains License rating as a Yacht Captain which helps him and his wife with their growing Charter Business based in Los Angeles, CA.

Terry Begue:
Terry Begue is living proof that every single one of us has the ability to overcome our challenges and create the most extraordinary life we can imagine.Terry started his painting business fresh out of high school with no money, no experience, no connections and no skills. Armed with nothing more than a pick-up truck and a dream. He spent years refining his painting skills only to discover no matter how good he became he was just another painter in an overcrowded market.
Refusing to settle, he stopped working on his painting skills and began perfecting his people skills. Learning what motivates people to buy, and taking away the reasons why they wouldn’t buy, and his business blew up! He more than doubled his income in just six months and over the next year, doubled it again!
Since then, Terry has fine-tuned his process for business and personal growth, into an easy to follow, four step system. His proven system has allowed his company to grow year after year, even though he hasn’t advertised since 2012!
Today, Terry is an international speaker and author of, “Attract & Keep Customers for Life: Four Abilities to Build Trust, Communicate Your Value and Charge What You’re Worth”

This was a fascinating interview with Intuition Expert Sunil Godse. Sounds odd on the surface but after listening to Sunil you'll see the power of the intuition tool we all have. This isn't just mindset and fairy dust. It is based and backed with science and is certainly a tool you can use daily to run your business better. I encourage you to listen to this and follow Sunil at the links below.
After making a series of bad decisions, with one leading to a friend being shot and killed, Sunil Godse spent thousands of hours on research and interviews to find out that the reason we waste time making bad decisions is because we ignore our intuition, a subconscious phenomenon that we are all born with that helps us make the right decision at the right time in any situation we find ourselves in.Sunil developed a seven step process that shows you how to sharpen your intuition so that the only decisions you make are the right ones in any situation that move your life forward.

Hood, Texas.After his many successful leadership roles, George transitioned to the corporate world, experiencing many of the same challenges Veterans face today. It was these challenges that provided the inspiration for him to create the first Junior Military Officer Hiring Program for a Top-5 consulting firm. George later went on to create one of the largest and most successful Veteran Hiring Programs for a Global Fortune 50 firm. In both instances, these programs resulted in the employer being ranked as a Top 100 Military Friendly Employer.

Coach T founded Maxing U after having been in the elite matchmaking space for several years .

After a lesson learned from a high profile client she realized she wanted to help those that couldn’t necessarily afford high end services, but wanted to find a partner and believed in her relationship philosophy…..”But first, self-growth!” . After lessons learned from her own relationships through self-growth she learned that these same tools apply those in relationships as well.
