What if there were a Dave Ramsey for entrepreneurs? Or wantrepreneurs? Now there is. 100% live, impromptu, improv and unscripted.Business owners have a massive problem: they need help. They live in a vacuum and can't afford a coach or consulting. That's where I come in. I've built over 20 companies and run 6 right now, with revenues in the 10s of millions. I've been starting and running companies since age 9 - literally! I passed the 10,000 hour rule a decade ago.Every Friday at 12pm CST I host a live call in show on Twitter for business owners. Call in and ask any business question you want, such as:1. How should I grow my pressuring washing business?2. When should I fire my employee?3. Should I quit my job for this business idea?4. How would you grow my business idea?Or, people can just call in and brag about their profit margins in their niche business that no one has ever heard of.To listen or call in live, follow me on Twitter here: https://twitter.com/mhp_guy or @mhp_guy and look for a tweet at noon CST every Friday.Either way, it makes for great content.This will be a 10 week experiment, ending on on April 26th, 2024. By that date, if this podcast is:1. Growing fast by that date2. Getting awesome feedback3. Giving me energyThen I'll keep doing it. If not, I won't.Podcasts are hard. Putting an end date on it makes it more manageable for me. If you love it and want it to continue on past April 26th, share it with your friends to make it grow!See you on Friday. :)
