WEBVTT

00:00:00.719 --> 00:00:12.313
Hello, hello, hello and welcome to the Million Dollar Electrician podcast, where we help home service pros like you supercharge your business and spark up those sales.

00:00:13.140 --> 00:00:20.606
I'm Joseph Lucani and, together with my co-host, Clay Neumeier, we're here to share the secrets that have helped electricians sell over a million dollars from a single service van.

00:00:20.786 --> 00:00:30.861
Now it's time for sales, it's time for scale, it's time to become a million dollar electrician.

00:00:30.861 --> 00:00:36.610
Hey you guys, and welcome back.

00:00:36.610 --> 00:00:40.444
I didn't say hello, hello, hello that time, but it's not all about me, welcome back.

00:00:40.444 --> 00:00:42.488
We've got a great show, joe, I'm pumped.

00:00:42.488 --> 00:01:00.219
Today we're going to go more into the small call and more into how your pricing is relative and how the pricing creates the next kind of problem and you have to increase your value and how we could build value in these all important small calls that many of us need to build deep relationships with clients.

00:01:00.219 --> 00:01:02.427
Brother, are you ready to jump into that with me today?

00:01:03.051 --> 00:01:07.725
I'm so ready and I can't wait to get into this, because really that's the whole key.

00:01:07.725 --> 00:01:11.245
You know, people start and say, like how do I get involved and get these big tickets?

00:01:11.245 --> 00:01:13.495
Sometimes you don't start by getting a big ticket.

00:01:13.495 --> 00:01:15.584
It's proving your worth on the small ticket.

00:01:15.584 --> 00:01:16.987
We're going to tell you exactly how to do that today.

00:01:17.468 --> 00:01:30.596
I love that and we've got a great win of the week and we've got a value piece for this, a free tool that we're giving away, and so if you haven't got our price tool yet, you're going to be able to find out how to, on this episode, stick with us and let's start solving this.

00:01:30.596 --> 00:01:40.212
So I'm going to start with one of my favorite ways to open up a topic and just say Joe, you know how and you already know it's coming.

00:01:40.212 --> 00:01:45.391
You know how you get these calls and what do we want to stick to today?

00:01:45.391 --> 00:01:48.085
Like a trip GFCI, like the simplest of simple.

00:01:48.727 --> 00:01:57.030
So so, like the real thing is, I'd like to stick with something that's even simpler, because the customer doesn't call for the trip GFI.

00:01:57.030 --> 00:02:03.063
Usually they call for a fault that we, as the electrician, associate with the trip GFI.

00:02:03.063 --> 00:02:04.665
So I'm going to take it a step further.

00:02:04.665 --> 00:02:09.568
All right, customer calls in the notes and says my kitchen countertop circuit isn't working.

00:02:09.568 --> 00:02:14.492
I've checked the breaker, breaker's not off and my microwave doesn't work.

00:02:14.492 --> 00:02:16.875
There's got to be a short, come fix it.

00:02:17.336 --> 00:02:19.920
Yep, that's the call right, that's the one.

00:02:19.941 --> 00:02:32.479
Your spidey senses are tingling as an electrician like you can feel the electrons creeping around your body and part of you wants to solve this call on the phone because you know what's about to happen.

00:02:32.479 --> 00:02:35.411
Next, you've got to drive across town.

00:02:35.411 --> 00:02:36.796
You now know where this person is.

00:02:36.796 --> 00:02:37.941
You've got to go to their house.

00:02:37.941 --> 00:02:44.032
Maybe that takes you 15, 20, maybe for some of you it takes 20, 25, half an hour.

00:02:44.032 --> 00:02:47.901
I mean some areas of of the greater urban centers.

00:02:47.901 --> 00:02:50.411
I mean it could take you some time just to get there.

00:02:50.411 --> 00:02:54.383
But you don't want to lose the call, you don't want to set this person off.

00:02:54.383 --> 00:03:05.931
So you've probably even considered troubleshooting this on the phone and asking them to do some basic troubleshooting because of the pains you endure from traveling there, burning fuel, fuel burning your time.

00:03:05.931 --> 00:03:08.989
You've already got the troubleshooting mapped out in your head.

00:03:08.989 --> 00:03:12.750
You know it's going to take you five, 10, maybe 15 minutes to solve this.

00:03:12.750 --> 00:03:21.889
And the bigger problem you're focused on the entire time is how am I going to cut my $150 an hour into three pieces or worse?

00:03:22.060 --> 00:03:50.968
Maybe you've got a half hour rule, maybe you have a one hour rule, but either way it's going to be cutting my rate or pissing off this homeowner telling them that I have to charge a minimum rate and knowing what that problem is and knowing I don't know how, or I haven't found the way, or tire kickers don't like, or we, you know we tend to start blaming the environment and there's a couple problems in what we're saying already and I know that we're getting you revved right up here, joe.

00:03:51.640 --> 00:03:52.907
You're getting me like a ripcord man.

00:03:52.907 --> 00:03:54.426
I'm ready to be unleashed on this.

00:03:55.300 --> 00:03:56.667
You gave us a great example.

00:03:56.667 --> 00:03:59.688
I'm almost ready to hand this over to you.

00:03:59.688 --> 00:04:25.516
But the first problem that I think needs attention, and being that we're pricing focused primarily, is the pricing problem, and the reason why the individual taking this call is frustrated by it in the first place is because, even if they're at 150, or even maybe in your market, hey, you've gone and priced yourself out at $200 an hour as an electrician commodity.

00:04:25.516 --> 00:04:28.509
What do we mean when we say an electrician commodity, joe?

00:04:29.480 --> 00:04:49.307
Really what it is is you've allowed yourself to be associated with the product or the installation rather than the service associated with it, so you're called to serve a use rather than called to create a solution, and that contrast is very, very, very important in how customers perceive you before they even call you.

00:04:49.307 --> 00:04:51.692
So I'm 100% down with that.

00:04:52.379 --> 00:04:57.081
Here's an acid test question that I think people could ask themselves to find out if they're a commodity.

00:04:57.081 --> 00:05:03.411
If a homeowner asks you well, why would I go with you when they're $100 an hour cheaper?

00:05:03.411 --> 00:05:11.483
What do you?

00:05:11.502 --> 00:05:12.487
say to that?

00:05:12.487 --> 00:05:15.098
And if you don't have an answer, does that make you a commodity?

00:05:15.098 --> 00:05:19.485
Well, it doesn't necessarily make you a commodity, but it means that you yourself have a couple of issues.

00:05:19.485 --> 00:05:23.305
One either you haven't had to articulate your value yet and don't know the words to say let's claim ignorance.

00:05:23.305 --> 00:05:25.899
You don't know how to articulate your value yet and don't know the words to say right, you just claim ignorance.

00:05:25.899 --> 00:05:28.286
You don't know how to articulate it.

00:05:28.588 --> 00:05:29.531
Okay, that's a possibility.

00:05:30.601 --> 00:05:32.267
It could be a confidence issue.

00:05:32.267 --> 00:05:36.630
There's a lot of people who will give discounts to avoid hurting their ego.

00:05:36.630 --> 00:05:40.788
That way they can still get the sale without having their pride hurt.

00:05:40.788 --> 00:05:42.273
It's another thing.

00:05:42.273 --> 00:05:47.961
Their pride hurt, it's another thing.

00:05:47.961 --> 00:05:54.920
And the last is that actual problem where they have been trained by the industry and the industry says the parts should cost this, double the cost of the part.

00:05:54.920 --> 00:05:57.505
You should have your labor hour right there.

00:05:57.505 --> 00:05:58.910
But it doesn't work.

00:05:58.910 --> 00:06:03.747
When you got a $35 GFI it's like great I'm charging $65 an hour.

00:06:03.807 --> 00:06:05.860
Glad to know this is carrying and paying the bills.

00:06:06.581 --> 00:06:10.632
Anyone can go to homedepotcom and figure out what that GFCI is worth.

00:06:10.632 --> 00:06:20.161
The commodity electrician is the person on the other end of Home Depot installing a $35 part and doing nothing else.

00:06:21.665 --> 00:06:22.466
And that's the real shame.

00:06:22.466 --> 00:06:28.625
If anything like if you really think about it, the best way to describe it is known as a self-fulfilling prophecy.

00:06:28.625 --> 00:06:31.341
Can I touch on plan A and plan B and kind?

00:06:31.380 --> 00:06:32.165
of describe what I mean by that.

00:06:32.245 --> 00:06:33.209
Let's do it Okay.

00:06:33.209 --> 00:06:37.343
So let's say we talk about this customer or this electrician we're dealing with currently.

00:06:37.343 --> 00:06:42.053
He gets the call, he immediately assumes trip, gfi.

00:06:42.053 --> 00:06:43.702
I mean, what electrician wouldn't?

00:06:43.702 --> 00:06:47.630
Countertop not working in my kitchen, breaker's not off, my microwave doesn't work?

00:06:47.630 --> 00:06:48.713
Yeah, okay.

00:06:48.713 --> 00:06:49.233
Checks out.

00:06:49.233 --> 00:06:53.701
So the electrician mentally says, ah, it's going to be a GFI Maybe.

00:06:53.701 --> 00:06:54.906
He asks the age of the home.

00:06:54.906 --> 00:06:56.069
Oh yeah, it was just built.

00:06:56.069 --> 00:06:57.526
It was just built in 2024.

00:06:57.526 --> 00:07:01.009
So you're like brand new home, tripped GFI.

00:07:01.009 --> 00:07:02.911
There's probably going to be nothing there.

00:07:03.692 --> 00:07:15.091
So this person shows up and because they're focused and they already think they know the problem, they go right to the problem and their goal is to get in and out as fast as possible to prevent their loss of their time.

00:07:15.091 --> 00:07:20.305
Hey, if I can do this in under 30 minutes, I can get in and out, get my 150 and bomb away on my next call.

00:07:20.305 --> 00:07:32.396
The thing is, is the reason why I call that a self-fulfilling prophecy is because they're focused on just solving that immediate issue and not learning of how it is emotionally affecting the client or offering other services.

00:07:32.396 --> 00:07:34.201
The value stops there.

00:07:34.201 --> 00:07:43.620
So because they're trying to rush, they're not going to be doing the full process, they're not going to be building the relationship, asking the questions, exploring the other things.

00:07:43.620 --> 00:07:46.911
So, as a result, the customer sees them as a commodity.

00:07:46.911 --> 00:07:51.461
Guy came in, went right to the thing, pressed one button, handed me a bill.

00:07:51.461 --> 00:07:57.963
So that same customer now doesn't see any value in you because you yourself presented that way.

00:07:57.963 --> 00:08:04.867
So now they argue with you about the price and you are now thinking I, freaking, knew it.

00:08:04.867 --> 00:08:07.076
I knew before I even got to this call.

00:08:07.076 --> 00:08:10.538
I knew when I rolled into the driveway these people were going to give me a problem.

00:08:10.538 --> 00:08:14.716
I'm just not going to take any more trip GFI calls or I'm going to establish a minimum charge.

00:08:14.716 --> 00:08:17.891
But you, the electrician, caused that.

00:08:19.334 --> 00:08:20.355
So here's part B.

00:08:20.355 --> 00:08:25.190
Here's what we should do to actually diffuse that entire problem before you get there.

00:08:25.190 --> 00:08:28.598
Stop diagnosing it over the phone.

00:08:28.598 --> 00:08:30.862
Stop mentally diagnosing it on the van.

00:08:30.862 --> 00:08:36.648
Stop diagnosing it until you physically see the problem, because you're poisoning your own thought process.

00:08:36.648 --> 00:08:39.778
How do we not know that there's something more involved?

00:08:39.778 --> 00:08:41.957
We can't just assume this GFI.

00:08:42.630 --> 00:08:45.821
So what we do is we're going to create the relationship.

00:08:45.821 --> 00:09:02.182
We're going to go to the panel, we're going to explore the circuit connected and the device and figure out what tripped it in the first place, we're going to be there for about an hour doing an exploratory visit and then we're going to create a range of solutions and clearly explain the pro and cons.

00:09:02.182 --> 00:09:13.922
If the customer still chose your bare minimum, there's no shame in that, but at least then they chose it with the comparison of all the other things you could have done.

00:09:13.922 --> 00:09:17.636
But more than likely they're not going to take the minimum.

00:09:17.636 --> 00:09:27.222
So offer the solutions, create the value and you'll be rewarded for it, maybe not on every call, but on the overall calls you go.

00:09:27.222 --> 00:09:31.140
You'll have more sales and more satisfied customers and less headache.

00:09:32.049 --> 00:09:53.951
I agree, and a couple of things stand out in my mind right off the bat is, instead of being the all knowing expert even though you are you do that, that ability, you're the electrician here, you're the master electrician, you're the person they call, you're the authority, you're the subject matter expert.

00:09:53.951 --> 00:10:04.980
But that doesn't mean you should act that way and instead just flip that and be a curious student, not of I'm in your home to learn about electrical theory.

00:10:04.980 --> 00:10:07.403
You've already done that, you already understand enough.

00:10:07.403 --> 00:10:15.169
But in the sense of I'm a curious student to these people that I'm serving and this home electrical system that I've never seen before.

00:10:15.169 --> 00:10:20.140
And by taking that approach, I think you find a lot more fruit.

00:10:20.140 --> 00:10:23.941
It's something you said that made me think gosh, that's a commodity.

00:10:23.941 --> 00:10:36.754
You said, basically, a company gets call, electrician shows up, electrician solves thing, electrician invoices for thing, and I thought, gosh, isn't that the residential construction?

00:10:36.754 --> 00:10:49.322
Just speaking right through that, and most of us here if you're listening to us, whether this is your first time or any length of time that you've joined us here uh, a, we thank you, we love you.

00:10:49.322 --> 00:10:50.625
This is why we do this thing.

00:10:50.625 --> 00:10:55.100
Uh, we just keep showing up and helping any way that we can Um but B.

00:10:55.100 --> 00:11:06.322
It likely means that you already have an opinion of residential electrical, because I don't think there's any greater commodity competitive market.

00:11:06.322 --> 00:11:42.583
It's right there, with the worst of the worst, like you can race to the bottom, to the end, and, and so most of us are trying to escape that by taking part with uh, with an enterprise such as this organization, a podcast like this, to actually use service to be something more, and so the big suggestion that we have to move into, not just with what joe said on how to actually create value, but that's actually the answer to the next problem that we need to create for you, which is the 150, won't actually float you in service.

00:11:44.855 --> 00:11:49.092
I actually want to change my call to action because in the past we've talked about pricing.

00:11:49.092 --> 00:12:12.292
I think we've been really forward, joe, about asking people to raise the rate, and I want to give us credit because I think that in the history of coaches and trainers and people saying, hey, raise your rate, there's been so many people, including myself at times, who have just said it arbitrarily, and you listeners, viewers, deserve better than that.

00:12:12.292 --> 00:12:18.452
So, on today's call, I don't even want to ask you to arbitrarily raise your rate to 300.

00:12:18.452 --> 00:12:38.299
I'm just going to give you the power of suggestion and knowing that the successful electricians in our groups, within our ranks, the ones that, hey, we're about to talk about, win of the week here with justin and his great month of january, even during a slow time, those are the guys that figure this out.

00:12:38.299 --> 00:12:42.936
They do their own math, they use a proven tool to do it.

00:12:42.936 --> 00:12:44.379
It adds, adds up.

00:12:44.379 --> 00:12:50.160
There's no argument at the end, and then they feel the force of needing to learn the value.

00:12:51.029 --> 00:13:03.494
So when I say I'm shrinking my call to action today, joe, what I mean by that is don't raise your rates, don't do it, but get our free tool and make your own assessment.

00:13:03.494 --> 00:13:04.455
And make your own assessment.

00:13:04.455 --> 00:13:14.225
Just be a student of pricing for a day, put your own numbers in and you tell me if the money's been adding up in the account.

00:13:14.225 --> 00:13:17.688
In fact, you don't even have to tell me, tell yourself.

00:13:17.688 --> 00:13:31.011
If you just do this thing and become aware of it, then it's just a matter of how many of these calls you go on before you realize okay, this isn't working out for me, okay, I'm going to need to do something.

00:13:31.011 --> 00:13:50.504
And then that next thing, that problem that Joe's helping you solve here today that Justin's done very well is how to create the value and the choice for every customer so that they could actually choose you, even when your rates now double or 50% or somewhere in between higher than it was before.

00:13:50.504 --> 00:13:52.193
I mean, I've seen people 3X.

00:13:52.193 --> 00:13:56.390
Anything to add to that, joe, or should we jump right into Justin's win of the week?

00:13:57.192 --> 00:13:57.474
I mean.

00:13:57.474 --> 00:14:07.653
One thing I'm going to add is I want to add a personal experience the fear that some people might be going through this because we tell you to raise your rates and there's a concern, there's a fear it's not going to be.

00:14:07.653 --> 00:14:09.679
I can't do it in my market, it's not going to work here.

00:14:09.679 --> 00:14:10.673
I'm a one man show.

00:14:10.673 --> 00:14:13.500
I hear you and I'm not going to tell you to raise the rate either.

00:14:13.500 --> 00:14:19.921
I just want to tell you what I experienced, because I was 165 an hour and we were broke.

00:14:19.921 --> 00:14:23.126
As a joke, we were broke at that rate.

00:14:23.126 --> 00:14:25.451
It just was not sustainable, no matter how much work we did.

00:14:25.451 --> 00:14:31.123
And the concern was we were advised to raise the rate to over 250.

00:14:31.123 --> 00:14:32.513
Actually, it was over 300 at the time.

00:14:32.513 --> 00:14:35.419
We were advised and we literally shit our pants.

00:14:35.419 --> 00:14:40.802
We thought there's no way we're going to be able to do this and we eventually said we'll try by $50.

00:14:40.802 --> 00:14:42.436
No one complained.

00:14:42.436 --> 00:14:43.241
Another 50, no one complained.

00:14:43.241 --> 00:14:43.684
Another 50,.

00:14:43.684 --> 00:14:44.409
No one complained.

00:14:44.409 --> 00:14:45.956
Another 50, no one complained.

00:14:45.956 --> 00:14:49.293
Eventually we got to 385, and we were booked out almost three to four weeks at a time.

00:14:50.177 --> 00:14:58.230
So the point I'm trying to explain here and the only reason I'm making the comparison is I understand what you mean when you're afraid and you don't think it's going to work.

00:14:58.230 --> 00:15:01.701
I thought people were going to literally have catapults outside of my shop going to work.

00:15:01.701 --> 00:15:09.134
I thought people were going to literally have catapults outside of my shop just throwing generators to my windows.

00:15:09.134 --> 00:15:09.936
No one did so.

00:15:09.936 --> 00:15:11.662
The only person that is really worried about this happening is you.

00:15:11.662 --> 00:15:12.806
You're the one person.

00:15:12.806 --> 00:15:14.350
Your customers aren't going to be that person.

00:15:14.350 --> 00:15:16.075
You're going to be that person.

00:15:16.075 --> 00:15:22.820
So get out of your own way, just like we've had to learn how to do, and you'll find better results at the end of that road.

00:15:24.450 --> 00:15:40.135
I can tell you for a fact in my area hey, it's 2025 here too, and I know there's electricians that are subbing, subcontracting under project electrical companies for 130, 135 an hour as a blend rate.

00:15:40.135 --> 00:15:57.793
That includes your journeyman, your tools, your van, just to show up at site 135 an hour, work 40 hours a week, and some people are happy with with that as a business relationship and really as a future.

00:15:57.793 --> 00:16:01.402
I call that a job personally, just over broke.

00:16:01.402 --> 00:16:15.373
You're still on someone else's schedule, you still have really only one customer and if that customer decides they don't like you, you're back to pounding the pavement looking for one more to to fill, you know, to put the food in the fridge and the food on the table for you and your family.

00:16:15.995 --> 00:16:18.340
I can't blame you, for they're highly secure.

00:16:18.340 --> 00:16:21.033
But also, what does that mean for the service game?

00:16:21.033 --> 00:16:36.591
There's's no way, like Joe said, that you could go from the $130 or $135 to $165, because now you're on your own and think that that $35 an hour was even going to cover your marketing budget to get two to 500 customers through the door this year.

00:16:36.591 --> 00:16:46.775
There's no way and by the way, guys, I don't say this to scare you, I know we're going deep on this, but man, what a beautiful thing.

00:16:46.775 --> 00:16:47.298
Services.

00:16:47.298 --> 00:16:53.821
I don't say that to scare you, and what I mean by that is getting customers doesn't have to be scary.

00:16:53.821 --> 00:17:04.951
Serving three to 500 people a year is an awesome goal and you should all try it, and you should aim to get 60 to 80 percent reviews on that, on that service too.

00:17:04.951 --> 00:17:07.678
And imagine what would happen if you did that.

00:17:07.678 --> 00:17:17.231
And imagine if you could learn to go from 165 an hour to 320 an hour and the difference that would make on your account, on your ability to grow into the future.

00:17:17.231 --> 00:17:21.861
Imagine that through our price tool, give that a shot.

00:17:47.310 --> 00:17:50.276
Let's talk about Justin for a moment, someone who got their pricing right.

00:17:50.276 --> 00:17:57.203
I literally pulled up Justin's notes when he decided to join forces with us and jump on board.

00:17:57.203 --> 00:18:03.462
Justin was doing about 25 to 30K a month one-man operation really early in his company.

00:18:03.462 --> 00:18:11.250
He was interested in hiring a CSR and potentially a journeyman installer to grow his business and he really wanted to jump into training.

00:18:11.250 --> 00:18:29.255
He was curious on our silver programming which offered much, much higher touch and had a 50K guarantee attached within that six months had a 50k guarantee attached within that six months.

00:18:29.255 --> 00:18:37.316
What I'm happy to report is that in january, usually considered a slow month, joe justin just reported 95 000 in sales.

00:18:38.237 --> 00:18:52.873
I absolutely love that, and the thing that blows my mind there is that, as an electrician who was really afraid of slow season and did everything we could to build against slow season, january and February were scary times.

00:18:52.873 --> 00:18:54.376
They just were.

00:18:54.376 --> 00:18:57.323
And to know that not only did he what is it?

00:18:57.323 --> 00:19:02.318
Triple where he was at, but that he now has a record amount.

00:19:02.318 --> 00:19:12.476
This was the best I've ever done in primarily the slowest month of the year, where everyone's looking back and saying, yeah, well, there's Christmas, and looking forward and go yeah, there's taxes.

00:19:12.476 --> 00:19:15.343
And he closed 95,000.

00:19:15.343 --> 00:19:17.895
Guys, are you hearing this in the background?

00:19:17.895 --> 00:19:21.011
And we're literally starting off and saying you can do this too.

00:19:21.011 --> 00:19:23.584
That's why I'm getting so jazzed and excited about it, because we're literally starting off and saying you can do this too.

00:19:23.584 --> 00:19:27.519
That's why I'm getting so jazzed and excited about it, because we're literally giving you the keys to the handcuffs.

00:19:27.519 --> 00:19:31.441
If you want to get out, start closing $95,000 months.

00:19:33.070 --> 00:19:37.221
And speaking of keys, Justin recently got keys to a new shop.

00:19:37.221 --> 00:19:49.340
He has that CSR in place and would not turn and go back and he's got help in the field now, Although Justin did himself sell all 95,000.

00:19:49.340 --> 00:20:09.597
It's so, so fun to think back just six months prior, seven months prior, to the person doing 25 to 30 K months, and if you ask them if they thought going into January they would do a 95K month, the answer is always no, Even though, hey, 50K guarantee was there.

00:20:09.597 --> 00:20:13.496
He felt it, he knew we're gonna get up there, we're gonna see some bigger months.

00:20:13.496 --> 00:20:18.301
Just an incredible, incredible stamp on his journey.

00:20:18.301 --> 00:20:20.978
So really pumped to share that with you guys.

00:20:21.330 --> 00:20:31.359
If you want this price tool, please let us know by sending us that keyword price wherever you found us, and you can always leave us a review on this podcast that helps other electricians find us too.

00:20:31.359 --> 00:20:39.473
If you wanted to keep us for yourself, I could understand that, but it's in the best interest of this rising tide that we share this with as many people as we can.

00:20:39.473 --> 00:20:48.674
If you know someone that needs to hear this podcast needs to get their pricing right and start to solve these small calls.

00:20:48.674 --> 00:20:49.698
That'd be a great place to start, Joe.

00:20:49.698 --> 00:20:50.961
Anything else to add to?

00:20:51.001 --> 00:20:51.804
this one before we cut them loose.

00:20:51.804 --> 00:21:01.916
The only thing that I want to add is that there may be one person that's sitting here on the fence and maybe you think I'm speaking directly to you and I am because in the background you're trying to figure out.

00:21:01.916 --> 00:21:05.623
I know I need to change and I have no idea how to do it.

00:21:05.623 --> 00:21:21.172
I know I need to go there, but I don't know how to do it, and I want you to know that that gap feels insurmountable, but the actual steps retired to get through it are actually quite minimal, and we want to help you through it.

00:21:21.172 --> 00:21:22.953
We truly do so.

00:21:22.953 --> 00:21:26.798
If you're in that place personally, send me a message, message Clay.

00:21:26.798 --> 00:21:29.642
I want to see you out of the hole.

00:21:29.642 --> 00:21:32.424
We want to see you thriving in your best self.

00:21:32.424 --> 00:21:42.796
So the one last bit of advice I want to give is, even if you don't trust yourself, trust the process and trust that good things are coming in your way.

00:21:44.641 --> 00:21:45.261
Love that brother.

00:21:45.261 --> 00:21:46.493
We'll see you guys next week.

00:21:46.493 --> 00:21:48.339
Cheers, Take care.

00:21:48.339 --> 00:21:53.798
