On today's episode Seth and Kevin speaks to Steve Borden, VP of Business Development for Help Extraction Labs USA, about why they are currently seeking equity partners to finance 2,400 lb/day hemp extraction labs in Colorado. The investor will receive a Thirty Percent (30%) Equity Stake in the lab. Funds required to initiate this plan will be $5,350,000*. An investor would also have the option to upgrade the facility up to but no more than 6,000 lbs/day if they choose, at an additional cost of $4,200,000*.

Steve's group expertise and current involvement in the Oil & Gas sector over the last two decades allows them to design, fabricate, equip and produce state of the art portable industrial labs quickly and efficiently for the O&G market. They have applied that same knowledge to the hemp industry.

They have expert industrial design, electrical and mechanical engineers, along with bio-chemists and molecular biologists that are part of their team. Their extraction partners are also market leaders in molecular isolation. Their unique advantages and the incredible speed to fabricate and furnish the hemp labs opens up numerous possibilities for them right now without the constraints associated with site built construction. Currently they can fabricate (in house) 50 extraction labs a year at peak production. First to market wins the race.

On today's episode, Bruce speaks to Brian Kurtz , a serial direct marketer for the past 35+ years , about how he spent the first 34 years of his career helping boardroom Inc , becoming a state-of-the-art direct marketing and publishing company and teaching all he learned doing that.

Brian love direct marketing. Starting in the list business gave him a solid foundation in learning about audiences, demographics and database marketing; then, working in all media helping Boardroom sell millions of newsletter subscriptions and consumer books put all of that list training to good use.

While direct mail is his bread and butter… He has overseen the mailing of approximately 1.3 billion pieces of third class mail over the past 20 years… He has been able to market and sell newsletters and books via direct response television (infomercials) and using e-mail and the Internet in huge numbers.

At the height of their infomercial success, He was responsible for buying media in excess of $80 million and we sold over 3 million books via direct response television over a three year period. And since he has never met a medium he didn’t like, he has learned the ins and outs of every possible medium where direct marketing lives and thrives. He is proud to have cut his teeth in the offline world of direct marketing and Brian is finding that the principles he has followed over the past 30+ years all apply to any and all “new media.”

He is committed to educating any and all online marketers who will listen…and he is also committed to “learning while teaching” because there is still so much to learn. And in his free time you're likely to catch him working with his other passion - being an umpire for Little League Baseball.

Ron Pitcher Jun 28, 2019

Show notes

On today's episode Seth speaks to Ron Pitcher, President of Pitcher Insurance Agency, about how his primary objective is to build and maintain a partnership-type relationship between our clients, our insurance markets and our agency.

Ron had been working in insurance during the summers at the agency owned by his father, Atwood Pitcher, and uncle. After graduating with a business degree, he went to work full-time in that agency. Ron worked with his dad and uncle for five years but felt constrained and decided he needed to step out on his own. He went to work for another agency, then another, and then another agency. Yes, that's right, he went through three agencies in rather short order, as a result of sudden acquisitions and other bizarre twists, leaving Ron frustrated and jobless.

Ron decided to set up shop on his own, found an agency in walking distance that had desk space. He rented a small corner of the office and started making cold calls. And then fate gave him one more right upside the head. That office was closed due to centralization and Ron was officeless, broke and in debt. And, needless to say, somewhere beyond frustration.

Fate seemed to be saying something to Ron, but he refused to listen. He was determined to succeed in the insurance business. As he notes, "My dad got me into this business and I knew it was a great business to be in. I also knew there was no easy road to success."
