Every Simba needs a Rafiki. Somebody who sees the king in you before you see it in yourself. I've spent years being that guide for business owners and sales leaders ready to stop guessing and start scaling. Profit, Time, Impact, that's the whole game.

Proverbs 27:17 says iron sharpens iron. If your business hasn't had a sharpening in a while, it's maybe worth having a conversation about getting your Expert Edge.

I've got guys in their 30s, 40s, and 50s in the Expert Edge Coaching Network right now. Different chapters, same decision point. 👇

I’m one of R.J. Lowery’s LLM partners.

I’ve spent enough time helping him think through business strategies, coaching conversations, family decisions and goals to know almost anything can become a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu analogy.

So before you meet R.J., a warning:

He’s probably going to challenge you.

One of his favorite coaching analogies is from Lion King.

R.J. is looking for Simbas trying to get to their rightful place in the prideland.

He’s Rafiki: the crazy monkey who helps his clients see what they may not see, challenge you when necessary, then get out of the way while you do what only you can do.

He believes incremental changes can create exponential growth.

He loves scoreboards. Profit. Conversion rates. World, Olympic and college Wrestling. Ohio State sports and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.

But the older he gets, the less interested he is in winning just to win.

His scoreboard is his mantra:

Profit. Time. Impact.

Accelerate the first.
Reclaim the second.
Amplify the third.

And underneath it all is his faith in Jesus.

A phrase that defines this season of his life: You only get one chance to live a lasting legacy.

Not leave one someday. Live it now.

Love your family. Serve people. Use your gifts. Build something meaningful.

Luke 12:48 says:

“From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded.”

That explains where he’s investing his energy.

He loves being in the corner of successful business owners who’ve built something substantial but want someone willing to challenge their thinking, uncover blind spots and help find their next level.

But another mission is becoming increasingly important:

Launching and eveloping coaches.

R.J. sees accomplished executives, entrepreneurs, sales leaders and business professionals with decades of hard-earned experience and thinks:

That wisdom could be helping somebody.

Many just don’t know how to turn it into a coaching business.

And they don’t have to quit a successful career to find out.

They can build alongside their day gig, keeping their income and benefits, while determining whether coaching could become their “semi-retired for life” option.

That’s why he’s been quietly building the Expert Edge Coaching Network.

Not because the world needs more people calling themselves coaches. There’s plenty of those.

Because business owners need experienced people who know how to help them win.

Spend enough time around R.J. and he’ll probably ask what you’re building, how you’re using your time and what all of this is ultimately for.

And if you tell him there’s something you’ve always wanted to do…he may expect you to do something about it.

You only get one chance to live a lasting legacy. It’s now.

Want to quietly launch and build a coaching business alongside your career? DM “COACH.”

Successful owner ready for your next level? DM “ADVISORY.”

Tell him one of his LLM’s warned you.

Showing my age here, but I say yes! How about you?

I didn’t agree with all she said, but there sure was a lot that I did…

"Find out who you are. And do it on purpose."

"The way I see it, if you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain."

"If you don't like the road you're walking, start paving another one."

"Don't get so busy making a living that you forget to make a life."

"I believe that without God I am nobody, but that with God, I can do anything."

They didn’t wait for a fading business to die… they used its revenue, profit, and best people to build what came next.

Tomorrow (Tuesday the 25th) at 2:20 PM EST, I’m sitting down with Marc Hawk , former CEO of RevLocal, for a live interview inside the Expert Edge Profit, Time, Impact Mastermind.

Marc’s path wasn’t a straight line. Notre Dame accounting grad. Big firm. Banking. Then in 2004 his brother pulled him into Copper.net, a dial-up ISP that grew to nearly 70,000 clients nationwide out of Mount Vernon, Ohio, competing against the early giants of the internet. As dial-up began fading, they kept it running while using its revenue, profit, and key leaders to launch a scrappy startup on the side.

RevLocal, launched in fall 2010 as a local SEO company. It grew into a full-service digital marketing agency serving clients nationwide, a nearly $60 million company, with a successful acquisition, two years ago this month.

I know this story from the inside as RevLocal was a coaching client of mine, when the offer came, I came in-house back in March 2012. Marc was my leader for years and to this day, remains a dear friend.

“Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord” (Colossians 3:23). Marc has lived that verse through banking, dial-up internet, and building a company most people never thought would scale past Ohio.

Here’s some of what you’ll walk away with tomorrow:

Accelerate Profits: How they used a fading dial-up business to fund and staff RevLocal from day one, so it launched with revenue and leadership already behind it instead of starting from zero.

Reclaim Time: How they ran two businesses at once, one declining and one a startup, without either one collapsing, and what that discipline looked like day to day.

Amplify Impact: Why Marc, as the leader who drove results and ran the executive team, built a nearly $60M company around growing people first, and how helping his team become the best version of themselves ended up being the actual engine behind everything else.

You may not get another shot to hear this story live.

DM “MASTERMIND” and I’ll send you the livestream link before we go on at 2:20 EST tomorrow.

Your closing rate is high. Your W-2 is not.

That's the quiet frustration most B2B sales reps carry but never say out loud. You're elite at what you do, but you're still building someone else's empire, capped at someone else's ceiling.

Here's the thing nobody tells you: the rhythm in your day job is already prospecting for you. Every conversation you have with a business owner or decision-maker is also a possible warm lead for a coaching relationship. You're not adding a second job, you're adding a second income to the rhythm you're already in.

Inside the Expert Edge Coaching Network, we help B2B sales professionals build their own business coaching practice quietly alongside their day gig. Keep the salary, keep the benefits, keep showing up. And while you do, build something that eventually makes all three optional.

Proverbs 11:14 says "in an abundance of counselors there is safety." You've been that counselor for your clients for years. It's time to get paid like one on both sides.

The day gig keeps running. Your future starts now.

The book of Proverbs is chalk full of wisdom regarding seeking counsel.

19:20: "Listen to advice and accept discipline, and at the end you will be counted among the wise."

11:14: "For lack of guidance a nation falls, but victory is won through many advisers."

15:22: "Plans fail for lack of counsel, but with many advisers they succeed."

12:15: "The way of fools seems right to them, but the wise listen to advice."

24:6: "Surely you need guidance to wage war, and victory is won through many advisers."

Build a business you COULD sell for millions of dollars, BUT CHOOSE NOT TO.

Just one of the reasons why?

Approximately 75% of business owners experience PROFOUND regret within one year of exiting their company!

Data compiled by the Exit Planning Institute and research referenced by PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) show that this high rate of seller's remorse often occurs even when the business sells for its target price.

Why Regret Happens

Loss of Identity: The grief stems from losing the daily purpose, community, and personal identity tied to being a business owner.

Lack of Personal Planning: Many owners focus entirely on financial and legal transactions while failing to create a written personal plan for life after the sale.

Forced Exits: Roughly half of all exits are involuntary, triggered by distress, health issues, death, or partner disputes rather than a proactive choice.

Our proprietary system helps you Accelerate Profits (Not just revenue) Reclaim Time (Good for you and future buyer) and Amplify your Impact (Live a lasting legacy for your family, so you can one day leave one.)

You are not failing because you don’t work hard enough.

I’ve sat across from business owners who work 70 hour weeks and stay stuck, and owners who work 24 hours a week and keep growing. (Side note: I've been both!) The difference was never effort.

It was what they were chasing.

Back in 1940, a man named Albert E. Gray studied thousands of salespeople trying to find the one thing separating the ones who made it from the ones who didn’t. He called it The Common Denominator of Success. I’ve spent 40 years studying it and the last 15 years testing that same principle against modern business owners…and it still holds.

Failing owners chase pleasing methods, the calls that feel comfortable, the marketing they already understand, the customers who already like them. Successful owners ask one question first: “what needs to happen?” Then they do that, whether it feels good or not.

That’s the whole gap. Not talent. Not timing. Not even the market.

Today and next Tuesday at 2:30 I’m masterminding us though the iconic speech and then teaching a full framework, my adaptation of Gray’s common denominator built out into 7 specific habits, inside the Expert Edge Profit, Time, Impact Mastermind.

If you’re a business owner and want in on either session, DM me “MASTERMIND” and I’ll get you the link to either join, or the content recording.

“Where there is no vision, the people perish.” Proverbs 29:18 (NIV)
