EP 545: Spring Bear with Garrett and Jared

by

This week we talk Spring bear hunting. Been talking a lot about entrepreneurship lately so it was fun talk about upcoming spring bear plans. Garrett Weaver runs a hunting YouTube channel called On Point and does a lot of bear hunting in Oregon. Jared Newman is out of Colorado and we talk about his plans to hit up Montana this year. Spring bear hunting is one of my favorite trips of the year and really look forward to it every year. This year I have been scouting some new spots and I am excited to get out and see what they look like. We also talk about an app Jared built called Hunt League and how the thing he just wanted for himself has grown into an app that could have an impact of generating data for agencies across the country.  Hope you enjoy, and be sure to check out the app at www.huntleague.com

by

It’s a pleasure to have Remi Warren on the podcast again. Remi is someone I have always looked up to for a few reason. Remi is about as true to character as anyone I have met. He also has the ability to be 100% true to himself which is more rare than one would think. It can be hard to know when to be yourself and when people you expect something else of you.

In this episode we talk about a side of Remi most probably don’t see or at least don’t think about as much. Remi is one of the best hunters out there but this week we tackle just how he set out to turn his passion into a profession. Remi is one of those people who just wants to hunt every day. In order to do that you need to figure out how you are also going to make a living. From guiding to TV shows Remi has tested many strategies and seems to be doing well while still enjoying what he does. Stoked for those brave enough to create the life most would consider reckless. Check out Remi’s new podcast Live Wild available where ever podcasts are downloaded.

EP 543: Building a Tribe, Taking a Leap of Faith, Being Backed into a Corner with Justin Wegner

by

This week I am joined by Justin Wegner of Backbone Swag. Just when Justin took the leap of faith in himself and went out on his own, life had other plans. Justin worked his way up to finally having some big contracts in the agency space just as COVID and 2020 punched everyone in the face. Every single project he was working on stopped or postponed. The problem is when that happens it is not like the bills stop coming. In this situation one could either lay down and say  I guess I tried, or you can pivot and grind. Justin chose the latter. He instantly pivoted to an Idea he had about a clothing brand. After grinding, and learning, and grinding some more Backbone hit that 7 figure mark. I love that Justin calls it the 20 year overnight success. This is so true, you never see all the failures that went into what something is. This is a cool story and I hope it inspires some of you.

Justin’s Story – 01:05
Justin’s Losses & Finding a Win – 10:47
Pivoting from Failure Towards Success – 23:14
Shifting Tracks & Building a Dedicated Fanbase – 34:26

EP 542: Rich Ideas Lab Jam Session – How to Launch a Product

by

We are launching a men’s candle company. I have more ideas than time, some ideas are better than others I’ll admit. Ideas are actually pretty easy it’s deciding which ones to pursue, which ones are going to be dead ends that take a ton of intuition and skill.

I created this thing Rich Ideas Lab for a few reasons. 1) I love jamming about business ideas, making money, and how to have the lifestyle about as much as hunting. 2) It’s the best resource I can think of to help all of you who want to do the same.

From an early age I knew there was a version of life where I had freedom to go do what I wanted when I wanted. A version of life where if you want something expensive you figure out how to make that money.

I worked like hell to make that happen. Then I thought I could teach a course on how to do that. While I do think that will save you years of missteps, what you really need to do is surround yourself with people who are doing that.

In retrospect it’s obvious, I surrounded myself with people who pushed me. Who made me think bigger. The problem I had was that there was very few people like me. They all wanted to build businesses so they could drink umbrella drinks on a beach. I was trying to do it so I could work face off chasing elk in the mountains.

SO, what is the thing I can create that is going to push me to the next level as well as help people get what they want but do not yet know how to get? This is that thing. Here is a taste of what we are doing, but it’s going to be so much bigger.

It is e-scouting season if you are a serious hunter now is the time to start scheming and planning for 2022. Getting a tag is the name of the game and before you ever apply you should be looking over that unit in onX to see what it looks like. If you can see any pockets where you might find that future wall hanger. On X is my go-to map for e-scouting and now with your elite membership you get access to not only all 50 states but you also get access to Top-rut draw odds and Huntin Fools e-mag  to help you find that tag that other people aren’t seeing. Upgrade your on X membership to Elite and get the whole e-scouting package
