10x employees aren't just born that way, they're developed. They're developed under rockstar managers with stellar cultures working on ambitious projects. You can either fight to recruit them away or you can fight to make your company the kind that develops them as well.

This is what the American dream looks like. Not Wall Street or Silicon Valley. 6am at a gas station in a growing area. Business owners stocking up on ice and gas for the day, trying to make it.

Imagine having the confidence to start a gas station in Houston called Buky’s … And then claim it’s because that was your childhood nickname in India. Built different, that guy 😂

TBPN had 70k viewers per episode and sold for $100m. The Koerner Office has 170k viewers per episode and is now formally soliciting acquisition offers for $250m and above. DMs are open😂 Who wouldn't want to reach 45% biz owners & 55% aspiring biz owners aged 25-55 in the US??

Yesterday this nectarine tree was in Georgia. Today it’s planted in my Texas backyard. The 3 nectarine trees I bought from Home Depot were all mislabeled and are actually peach trees. Oh well. That makes 9 peach trees now. What an awesome freaking world we live in.

"There's too many podcasts." No there aren't. There's very few very good ones. And the good ones require 4 minutes of fast forwarding to get to the actual show. The % of GOOD podcasts that start every year is lower than the growth rate of podcasting. Very bullish on audio!

Oh, so you’re able to get a table at the hottest restaurant in town? Thats cute. The Chipotlane employees near my house don’t need to ask my name. I roll up, and they simply hand over the food. We are not the same.

AI hasn't killed Upwork (yet). Here are some unique Upwork uses that you might not have thought of. Combine some with AI and it's next level.

We won't see another successful social media app for a very long time. Most car companies were founded from 1890-1920 then almost nothing until Tesla. It's as hard to build a car as it is to disrupt network effects of today's social apps. 2004 - 2016 was the social media era.

I spoke to a guy that drove to Texas from Utah, bought 11 new dumpsters for $5k each, and then launched a dumpster rental biz They rent for $500/week! He just went all in & bought 15 more. How's it going? Check out the video below. You'll love it.

Being “early” to something has never been easier: For the dot com boom you had to move to San Francisco & raise millions. Mobile? Same Crypto? Find an obscure message board, have money & never sell.

Everyone announces their new podcast. No one announces when they shut it down 3 months later Loyal audio listeners are the white whale, holy grail of the content world. But SO HARD to find! More valuable than email or YT subs This is 2 years of grinding on The Koerner Office:

This alpha school student watched a YouTube video & then found her first $300/month customer on her 16th birthday. (The irony is that YouTube is a better school than basically anything else) Instead of coming up with reasons why ideas won't work, just go do things, like Stella.

Biggest marketing scam ever invented? “Lasts 13 years!” A few years later, it dies. “Where’d we get those bulbs from again? Whatever. Let’s just buy more.” A while back, I went through and replaced every incandescent in our house with LEDs. 7 years later, here we are.

The LDS church baptized more people in 2025 than any year on record - a 25% increase over 2024. Last month there was a week with 10,000 baptisms & 2,500 missionary applications - both records. 2026 will blow 2025 out of the water. Christianity is booming!

My buddy wants to quit his 9-5 to start a biz, but is still trying to shake the lessons his parents taught him 20-30 years ago It's scary how offhand comments we make to our kids can affect the rest of their lives. Sharing with permission below:

I'll call it now: OpenAI is Yahoo Anthropic is Google Here is side by side google trends data for download claude cancel chatgpt

Last month something terrible happened. I posted a video showing exactly how I make $35k/month from Facebook and Facebook banned me the next day. All that income went to $0 overnight. So I turned lemons into lemonade.

If you want to be a billionaire you have to innovate. But to be a millionaire you simply need to copy/paste. Don't even try to copy something that works and put your own twist on it. No twists. Stop twisting. Just copy what's working.

I recently walked into Cabela’s for the first time in 5 years. I notice the sign also says Bass Pro. Huh. Whatever. I walk in and they say “welcome to outdoor world!” Uh, ok. Three names? Wasn’t the merger a decade ago?

This is how you can reframe everything "bad" that happens to you. When something bad happens, write about it on a Google doc. At the bottom of the doc write how you'll be better for it. In the moment that bad thing is your life's book.

TEST YOUR PRICE POINTS TEST YOUR PRICE POINTS TEST YOUR PRICE POINTS I’m selling a business plan and tested the 6 prices/discounts below. My conversion rate was higher at $58 + 50% off than it was for merely $9. It’s almost 4x the revenue from the exact same amount of traffic.

If I were starting a home service biz today, the only 3 I would NOT start are: Pressure washing Window cleaning Lawncare Why?

Want to win in business? Get comfortable with rejection. I spent 2 years knocking doors in Eastern Europe speaking a language I barely understood. 80,000 doors knocked. The result: 12 baptisms.

This guy turned $100 into $30,000 after reading a tweet. Definitely earns a repost from me. The tweet he read + accompanying video is in the top comment below.

I spent a week at a Mexican resort with 150 doctors. And wow. I can now say with 100% certainty that I know what the biggest wealth creation opportunity of 2026 is. These guys are the best of the best, each making $500k - $5m+ per year.

I knew a guy that managed Chicago's biggest vet clinic. They were paying $25k/month to a company to cremate dogs. The owner went to the guy & said "Why don't we start our own cremation biz? I'll invest in it & be your 1st customer. You can use my land, too."

I just heard that an insulation company sold for 30x their $3m EBITDA! Yes, $90m for an insulation franchisor. 🤯 Blows my mind. Home service franchisors are valued like SaaS companies now. Royalty rev is as predictable as it comes... Anyone know this brand in question?

This is wild. In my church, the average person meeting with missionaries has an 1.8% chance of getting baptized. If they attend church the same week that they first meet with missionaries, it’s an 18% chance. A 10x increase! Apply this principle to your biz or sales processes

My 9 year old is going to be a billionaire. Yesterday he started private speech training for his Rs and hated it. At bedtime he asked us to cancel it. We lovingly said no.

Every morning I sprint to my desk because I freaking love what I do. Then every evening I can't wait to log out and put my phone on do not disturb, because I freaking love my family. This feels right.

HELP! I need to talk to anyone that: Started a business or side hustle that made 5 figures of profit in months, not years. And they can't gate keep! Introduce me and I'll Venmo you $100. DM me their story in 1-5 sentences. DMs are open!

The best 2 ways to "network": 1. Genuinely show more interest in others than yourself. 2. Plant seeds of gratitude with everyone you look up to & ask for nothing in return. The earlier you start the faster the results will compound.

How long until tweets are watermarked with an AI symbol? If you see it, call it out. The human will see his generic AI tweet has a reply, excitedly check it, then feel dumb, and then maybe think "hmmm. I should turn that thing off."

We stopped waking our kids up for school. 4 kids ages 9 - 15 in 4 different schools. Last week my wife and I woke up and were like "What are we even doing? Why are we waking up our kids for school? Over and over? Oh, and why are we still making the 9 year old's lunch?"

Hi. I'm Chris. And I'm an addict. When I hear about a new trend I buy domain names. Today's is "junk journaling." Think journaling + lazy scrapbooking. For people who want to remember things without relying on the internet. Ticket stubs + receipts stuffed into a journal.

Only 15% are using ChatGPT?? I talked to a friend last year that had taken a job with a $130m company and what he said floored me. He said 15% of his new colleagues use ChatGPT. What percentage do you think it is now?

Any cookie shop not named Crumbl is doomed. A Crumbl competitor opened near me, buried far back in a strip mall, invisible from the road. Tonight we went to try it for the first time. It never stood a chance. We went to Crumbl instead.

"Excellence is the capacity to withstand pain" Never has there been more opportunity to get ahead & profit by embracing discomfort. You'll stand out even more. This world has never been more comfortable. 3 swipes of your thumb & a milkshake appears.

My 11 and 15 year old boys keep bugging me to use my phone so they can buy physical silver. I wanna be proud, and I am, but mostly I’m just convinced this is the top.

How to start a 95% margin collections biz: My buddy worked for an HOA management co & the HOAs had 2 BIG problems: 1. TONS of homeowners were delinquent 2. The insane HOA collection costs were passed down to the good homeowners. Lose/lose

My wife balances me out. I’m all or nothing - she’s all things in moderation She’s weighed the same for 20 years, I’ve been only fat or fit She eats only 1 cookie, I have to either have 10 or swear off sugar for a year 😂 It benefits me at work, but I like her method more!

Kids like this today will be billionaires in a few decades. It's a privilege to work with them on a regular basis! The hard part is having to say no to 99% of them due to time constraints.

90% of niche franchises are fads. For every Chicken Salad Chick there’s 10 other concepts that failed. Spoke to a guy last week that wanted to buy into an acai bowl franchise and I said NO!

A 16 year old wants a car, but he has no money. He watches a YouTube side hustle video that causes him to buy 115 new overstock rugs for $13 each. He slangs them on FB Marketplace for $35 each. Only in America can you just make it happen like this. Link below.

Wanna make a billion? Sell high-ticket. Ken Hendricks went from roofing with $500 to building a multi-billion dollar empire. Not loud. Not flashy. Just smart distribution, real leadership, and taking care of his people. Imagine if more billionaires moved like this.

This California professor makes $175k/year...IN PROFIT, cooking pizzas on the WEEKEND at a farmer's market. Using an $800 pizza oven and a $100 pop up tent. He blasts Frank Sinatra and has a huge Italian flag. $175k on the WEEKEND! I <3 business.

You could stack this croissant up against any $6 NYC croissant and they’d taste the same. Yet at Costco you get 12 for that price! I bought these for the price, but they taste amazing, too. Croissants are HARD to make, but capitalism is undefeated. Long live Costco.

Every successful person has 2 stories: The media story & the real story. The real story usually involves a growth hack or gaming an algorithm. Mr. Beast's 1st viral hit was him counting to 100,000.
