  • The Conversation That Changes Everything: How Real Leaders Handle Tough Talks
    Jun 16 2025

    Episode Summary:

    In today’s episode, Ryan gets real about something most business owners struggle with: having hard conversations with employees. Whether it’s lateness, sloppiness, or poor attitude, most owners either avoid confrontation or explode after bottling up frustration. Neither works—and both can kill your company culture. So Ryan breaks down a powerful leadership strategy he learned from his mentor, Josh Latimer, on how to approach correction with clarity, calm, and control. You’ll learn the exact steps to take when a tech needs to be corrected, how to communicate expectations with confidence, and how to create buy-in without drama. If you want to lead like a true CEO—not just a friend or frustrated boss—this episode is for you.

  • The Brakes Make You Faster: Why Slowing Down Grows Your Business
    Jun 13 2025

    Episode Summary:

    In this off-the-cuff episode, Ryan shares a powerful lesson he learned at a Corvette performance driving school—and how it applies directly to growing a service business. It’s not just about going fast; it’s about knowing when to brake. Most small business owners burn themselves out by pushing the gas pedal non-stop, working late, quoting jobs, missing calls, and wondering why they’re stuck. But the ones who scale fast? They slow down at the right moments. Ryan breaks down the mindset shift from operator to owner, why weekly planning and early hiring matter, and how stepping back can set you up to move way faster long-term. If you’re stuck in hustle mode, this episode is your wake-up call.

  • How to Raise Prices Without Losing Jobs – The Supply & Demand Pricing Blueprint
    Jun 2 2025
    Episode Summary:

    In this episode, Ryan shares one of the most powerful pricing strategies every service business owner should be using—Supply & Demand Pricing.

    If you’ve been charging the same rates year-round, you're leaving money on the table. Ryan walks you through how to:

    • Use your close rate as a real-time pricing signal
    • Adjust your prices based on seasonal demand
    • Make small, smart price changes (5–10%) that add pure profit to your bottom line
    • Use CRMs and tools like ResponsiBid to make price adjustments in minutes
    • Avoid the common mistake of guessing instead of using data-driven pricing decisions

    This isn't theory—it's the exact method Ryan uses in his million+ dollar business to scale profitably without burning out or lowering standards.


    If you want to make more without working more, this episode is your roadmap.
