HR.Salon Podcast
The salons of 17th and 18th century Europe emerged as intimate gatherings of diverse thinkers who exchanged ideas freely outside the constraints of formal institutions and hierarchies. HR.Salon carries this tradition into our modern professional context. Just as historical salons fostered movements that shaped culture and politics, we believe our conversations can meaningfully influence the evolution of workplace practices and human resources philosophy. Join host Andrew Biernat as we explore the future of work, innovative organizational practices, and HR strategies you can apply today.
HR.Salon Podcast
Randy Spurling started his service business and within a year started investing in real estate
This episode is not for the faint of heart!
Randy Spurling founded On the Spot Cleaners and the next year started investing in real estate.
While the strategy worked for him, it's not for everyone!
Randy shares some tough stories of how his business wore him out and how, in the short term, several strategic errors cost him his most precious resource: time.
With every hard knocks lesson, there's a silver lining: Randy spent 12 weeks traveling this last year. He has trained his team to run much of the business without him (though he's still very involved). And he's invested in ways that allow him to create more time freedom in his life.
In this episode you'll learn:
๐ How to keep your ego from getting in the way of business decisions
๐ Why it's sometimes better to make less money in your business
๐ The reason you need to think big picture when it comes to advertising (and how you may have missed the most cost effective way the whole time!)
๐ Why Randy loves hiring former restaurant employees
๐ How and when to hire your first and next employee (and how to make sure they pay for themselves)
๐ Why teaching others to replicate your success is often more lucrative than the initial business you were in
๐ And so much more!
