Tomorrow we’re meeting at Sweetwaters on Plymouth Road for the Business Meetup Network.

Saturday, 2–4 PM
Sweetwaters Coffee & Tea — North Ann Arbor / Plymouth Road
3393 Plymouth Road, Ann Arbor, MI 48105

This is a community event.

This is not some stiff, rigorous event where everyone stands around pretending to have the perfect answer to life.

This is a place for local people to come hang out, make new friends, meet new people, talk business, share community ideas, and build real community.

Everyone is welcome.

Business owners are welcome.
Creators are welcome.
Freelancers are welcome.
Professionals are welcome.
People with ideas are welcome.
People who just want to meet good local people are welcome.

There’s no pressure.

No pitch is required.

No need to have everything in life figured out.

Just come grab coffee with us, say hello, and see who you connect with.

See you Saturday at Sweetwaters on Plymouth Road.

If you want to get invited to all the events, join the Business Meetup Network.

We network with businesses, local community, and real people. We host cool events and send out invites every Monday.

I’m building the Business Meetup Network because I think a lot of people are tired of doing life and business alone.

This isn’t just for polished business owners with everything figured out.

It’s for:

People starting something.
People rebuilding.
People looking for better conversations.
People who want to meet other local people.
People who want referrals, friendships, ideas, and community.

No pressure.
No awkward pitches.
No pretending to be more successful than you are.

Just real people connecting.

We’re starting to meet weekly around Ann Arbor and the surrounding area. Tonight and every Thursday from 5:30 - 6:30 PM we are meeting at the Dozer / Homes campus at 112 Jackson Plaza, Ann Arbor, MI 48103. Join us and grab coffee/a drink/food and meet like minded people.

If you want to come hang out, meet people, and be part of it, start here:

Most small businesses don’t need a more complicated system.

They need a simple place to remember:

Who reached out.
What they needed.
Where the conversation stands.
What happens next.

That’s what a good CRM should do.

Next Wednesday’s free Lunch & Learn is about building a CRM your business will actually use.

Hey everyone, I have come to the conclusion that 2026 is for organization. If you have felt that life or business has been a bit chaotic for you too, you might enjoy this latest video that I put up called "You Can't Scale Chaos". I am also working with business owners to evaluate tech stacks to help remove chaos and audit where you can save money with all the tools that overlap out there now days. If you or someone that you know could use an audit, please feel free to reach out to me. I will be doing them for a while to keep my family afloat while my wife recovers from an accident and goes through hospital visits and such. Have a great day!

Most people don’t fail because they’re lazy.They fail because they’re trying to grow on top of disorder.If your business feels heavy, scattered, or constantl...

Hey everyone, I’m offering a limited number of system / AI ROI audits this week for business owners who feel overwhelmed by their tools or workflows.

It’s basically a clear, outside look at what’s working, what’s not, and where time or money might be leaking.

No pressure at all, but if you or someone you know might find that helpful, I’m happy to share details.

The last stretch of my life forced me to slow down and take an honest look at how I live, how I work, how I take care of myself, and how I show up for my family. I realized pretty quickly that pushing harder was not the answer. Structure, consistency, and self-care were.

This video is called 45 Core Principles I’m Using to Rebuild My Family, My Business, and My Life in 2026.

You can watch it here:
https://youtu.be/tlryhJaa9FM

These are not theories or motivational quotes. They are things I am actively practicing right now while navigating stress, responsibility, and rebuilding stability from the ground up.

The video covers things like:
• Why consistency matters more than perfection
• How sleep, routine, and structure change everything
• Why calm leadership starts with self-regulation
• How protecting your health protects your family
• And why rebuilding starts with taking responsibility for yourself

I made this because these principles are helping me stay grounded and keep moving forward when life gets heavy.

If you are in a season of rebuilding, or just trying to get your footing again, this might be helpful.

Feel free to watch, comment, or share it with someone who needs it.

2026 is about rebuilding—my health, my work, and how I show up for my family.After going through a challenging season, I realized something simple but powerf...

I’ve been thinking a lot about what actually holds people back in business as we head into 2026.

It’s usually not effort.

It’s usually not ambition.

It’s how the work is designed.

So today I published a long-form video breaking down 20 hard truths about business and growth going into 2026 — things I’ve learned from actually building systems, fixing broken follow-up, and watching where momentum quietly dies.

This isn’t motivation.

It’s not hustle advice.

It’s about structure, clarity, and building things that don’t fall apart when you step away.

If you want to watch it, here’s the full video:

If you’re someone who wants to build instead of just consume:

• If you want to build these kinds of systems yourself in GoHighLevel, you can try it free here (14-day trial):

• If you’d rather skip the build time and use the exact systems I’m building as a done-for-you setup, you can reach out here:

No pressure either way.

Everything I’m sharing is meant to be useful first.

Curious which of the 20 hits you the hardest going into 2026?

As we head into 2026, most people aren’t being held back by lack of effort or ambition — they’re being held back by how their work and businesses are designe...

Most real estate investors don’t fail because they’re lazy or unskilled. They fail because their systems don’t protect them from bad leads, slow responses, and broken follow-up.

Build it yourself or get it installed. Either way, the system works.

Templates are a starting point. Real results come from custom systems built for YOUR business.
