Who holds you accountable?

Hey friend,

I went to a conference in Orlando in 2016 and met a friend of a friend. That friend of a friend's name is Dan Kalis.

Dan recently reached out to me and said, "Hey, I have a new product, and I think you'd be a good first customer for it."

He noticed that many company pages have only brief bios, since talking about oneself feels awkward. He's developed a product that lets you tell your life story from a business angle in a 'BIOcumentary. ' I'm always happy to help a friend, and I also thought it would be a fun chance to share my story. Here's how it turned out:

I got this video a week ago, and immediately after, I got really sick for 7 days. While sick, Dan and I were chatting on Messenger.

He sent me the following message last Thur night:

This simple accountability message was what I needed as a kick in the butt to start developing more relationships with business brokers.

Here's what happened as a result of that simple message:

  1. Built a broker / CPA / wealth advisor specific website ➔ https://value-hq.com/
  2. Hired a guy on Upwork to create a list of business brokers
  3. Created an SOP for our son to reach out to the brokers
  4. Trained our son on the process
This is a great example of making the best of a tough situation, having people hold you accountable, and helping your friends to see what comes of it.
A lot of good energy came from being sick.

If you want to make one of these for yourself, Dan is a great person to work with. Reply, and I will sync you two up.

Have a blessed day.

P.S. Surrounding yourself with like-minded people (like Dan) who will hold you accountable is a blessing.

If you're a founder or someone who supports them, I invite you to check out our community, Founder HQ (in Skool), where accountability is one of our three pillars for consistently achieving awesome things.
