Today on the podcast, John Briggs joins Bradley to discuss the keys to success he has discovered as a serial entrepreneur. John is widely recognized for his innovative approach to productivity and work-life harmony, encapsulated in his book, The 3.3 Rule: The New Workday Standard of Creating More by Working Less. His approach has not only led to significant revenue growth for his company and clients but also promotes sustainable work-life harmony by combating the damaging hustle culture mindset.
With a Master’s Degree in Tax from Brigham Young University and prior experience at Deloitte, John brings a wealth of expertise to small business owners looking to keep more of their cash in their own pockets. The government sucks at spending your money.
John teaches strategies that nurture the economy’s lifeblood—small businesses—while challenging the deep-rooted norms of overwork prevalent in most industries today. He is a staunch advocate for solid tax strategy, healthy cash flow systems, and hard work followed by intentional breaks.

Today on the podcast, Wes Schaeffer joins Bradley to discuss sales for business owners. He is a Ruthlessly Pragmatic sales trainer, marketing consultant, keynote speaker, copywriter, HubSpot expert, Keap CRM expert, and Doer.
Nothing happens until a sale is made. A sale cannot be made until a prospect has been identified. A prospect cannot be identified until a business owner informs the marketplace that they are in business with a valuable offering.
Each step must be carefully crafted and integrated and then automated in order to create a business that sustains you vs. a service that drains you. Wes helps you build all of that.
Wes Schaeffer started The Sales Whisperer® in 2006 after nine years in the Air Force and a decade in sales. Since then, he's written two books, published over 700 podcast episodes, and helped thousands of entrepreneurs in at least 29 countries master the profession of sales with style, grace, and dignity. He's the father of 7, a brown belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and the president of his HOA, so mow your lawn, sit up straight, and pay attention to what this grandfather of three has to say.
