Show Notes Chapter Markers

Episode 28: At the Heavy-Duty Parts Report we discuss how important it is to focus on cost-per-mile over purchase price. It’s a mantra that I have preached for over 20-years but despite the concept of buying high-quality parts and getting better performance is easy to grasp on the surface it proves to be much more difficult to execute on when faced with economic realities.  

 Could a change in our own perceptions about money help us to not only improve our personal financial situation but also improve our business acumen and help us to operate more profitable financially viable businesses? 

 My guest today is Vidal Espinosa of Invictus Advisors. Vidal is a unique accountant: He believes that everyone is broke...they just don't know it yet. 

 Vidal answers these questions in this interview: 

 Question 1: What is the fundamental reason people are broke? 

 Question 2: What should we all be doing differently?  

 Question 3: What impact will this have on our personal finances? 

 Question 4: There is plenty of opportunity for fleets to improve their profitability, one of which is to focus on cost-per-mile over purchase price when buying heavy-duty parts when repairing their equipment. From an accountant’s perspective, is this a wise strategy?  

 Question 5: Can you share with us an example of a fleet that you have helped?  

 Question 6: If there is one thing you want the listeners to take away from today’s conversation, what is that one thing?
