Join the Adventure

One day about 3 years ago, as my duct cleaning business, DUCTZ was languishing, in walks a young guy, Homero Bernal, and tells me he works for a competitor but will work for me for nothing for 2 weeks to prove he is worth it. (he actually looks alot friendlier than this pic!)

Fast forward 3 years, we have won back to back "franchise of the year" awards, and now after we sold 2 of our franchises to Homero, he is leading the country in sales!  Here's a funny story and some lessons learned...

Our main prospect was HVAC contractors and I explained to Homero how to pitch it as a "Joint Venture" between companies.  Homero's english is very funny to listen to, but it won't stop him from getting the sale.  After listening to him on the phone, I kept hearing him tell the person on the other line..."Join the Adventure", and they were signing up in droves!

So 3 lessons learned from this funny episode:

1. Don't assume your student understands exactly your teaching/coaching.
2. With passion, you can overcome the many obstacles that come your way.
3. I'm a dreamer and Homero was a doer. To have a truly successful business, it takes both types.

I'm looking for a doer to help me pull of the dream of Full Ride.  If that is you...Join The Adventure!
