Jordan and Melinda Minyard sat down with the Wealth Preservation Podcast and discussed everything leading up to their decision to launch The Pour Choice. While being coffee shop entrepreneurs, with a beer and wine menu, may not seem groundbreaking or unique, what Jordan and Melinda created in Auburn, California quickly exploded with business! The secret ingredient? Their philosophy that, “You can either do things, or do things well,” and always striving for the latter. In this episode we’ll hear about their childhoods, getting married three weeks out of high school, college life, initial careers, and so much more. We’ll also go into their deeper vision for, not just creating a place to get coffee, but a staple in the community that people knew they could go to connect with friends and family.

SmartRIA founder Mac Bartine joined the Wealth Preservation Podcast once more and shared his insight on building and scaling a SaaS company with a virtual workforce. Mac’s extensive experience in the startup world gives him keen insight on the common mistakes new companies make -- and bad company culture can derail a company’s progress. We discuss the work that went into starting the company, scaling to bigger clients, decentralizing the decision making, which roles were the first to be outsourced, and so much more. Mac also shares his views regarding mentorship and why it’s important to have many mentors -- not one mentor or coach -- many! Whether you’re a SaaS company, a legal firm, a blue-collar company, or anything in between, Mac’s experience as an entrepreneur is relevant to any business. We, on the Wealth Preservation Podcast, LOVE when someone realizes how their unique skill set can be applied in multiple industries and how it unlocked their true potential.

Mac’s extensive experience in the startup world gives him keen insight on the common mistakes new companies make -- and bad company culture can derail a company’s progress. Mac highlights the difference in workers through a fighting analogy: the soldiers, those who need to be told what to do, and the gorillas, the problem solvers that take initiative. When you’re a new startup, it’s the luck of the draw as to whether your hires are soldiers or gorillas, but as you grow, those smart gorillas can rise through the organization.

Mac’s extensive experience in the startup world gives him keen insight on the common mistakes new companies make -- and bad company culture can derail a company’s progress. In this clip, Mac delves into the conundrum that if you’re not growing as a software startup, nobody will invest in your company. You either have to have an immediately profitable solution or need to bring in outside capital – but, if you’re not growing at a reasonable rate, nobody’s going to fork over money. It’s a delicate balancing act and Mac shares his experience and insights.

In this clip, Mac shares a creative idea the team at SmartRIA threw around to incentivize meeting compliance standards; and while a rewards system, built on Game Theory, is intriguing – the general consensus was that it wouldn’t work… no dopamine release in compliance!

SmartRIA founder Mac Bartine joined the Wealth Preservation Podcast and shared his experience as a serial entrepreneur who tried to do way too much, on his own, for way too long. His drive to solve problems and think creatively made him highly motivated as an entrepreneur, but it took a decade of side hustles before all of his experience came together to create a strong, healthy, and rapidly growing business. We are always wondering what the entrepreneurs, today, think of the college prospects to the entrepreneurial-minded. Mac recognized that college was more than just a place for him to learn from classrooms and lecture halls. Mac saw his undergraduate and graduate programs as life and people-skills-building experiences. He does acknowledge the shift in forms in (???) education and believes that, in today’s environment, a mature, driven, and goals focused person can still build a very successful life without a 4-year degree.

His drive to solve problems and think creatively made him highly motivated as an entrepreneur, but it took a decade of side hustles before all of his experience came together to create a strong, healthy, and rapidly growing business. In this clip, we get a brief description of some of Mac’s earlier entrepreneurial ventures. For 12 years, Mac has had his hand in many different side hustles and startups. Each success and failure played a part in fine-tuning and reshaping Mac’s future. All of this has come together to form his latest and greatest company: SmartRIA.

His drive to solve problems and think creatively made him highly motivated as an entrepreneur, but it took a decade of side hustles before all of his experience came together to create a strong, healthy, and rapidly growing business. In this clip, Mac tells us about his parents and the type of “entrepreneurial” background he came from. His mom was a creative type with a professional career in opera and teaching music, while his dad was a nuclear physicist. While neither were true entrepreneurs, he did see his mother leverage her creativity in her work and his dad hone his relationship skills to entice people from all over the world to fund research and come do research at his lab.

In this clip, Mac gives us the background on how he came across SmartRIA and why it was a no-brainer for him to move forward with it. When you’re a creative problem solver, knowing which idea is a winner can be tough. Why? Because you think they are all winners! Mac not only saw the huge need for this industry, but he also saw the poor solutions available, the pain it was causing, and the demand for an evolving solution as regulations changed. This wasn’t just solving one problem; this was creating a system to always be innovating ahead of new problems.

His drive to solve problems and think creatively made him highly motivated as an entrepreneur but it took a decade of side hustles before all of his experience came together to create a strong, healthy, and rapidly growing business. In this episode, we explore Mac’s past and how growing up a nuclear physicist and professional musician as parents, his college experience, and his first few startups. Mac admits that he has probably made every mistake he could make when it comes to startups, but one thing Mac never did was give up on his curiosity for solving unique problems. This is what ultimately led him to start SmartRIA, a compliance software and service, despite not having a background in financial services or compliance. For Mac, it is always about the identifiable problem and solving it in creative ways. We also go into Mac’s advice for aspiring entrepreneurs and warnings to not make the same mistake he made. We, on the Wealth Preservation Podcast, LOVE when someone realizes how their unique skill set can be applied in multiple industries and hear how it unlocked their true potential.

Savion Nehemiah built his marketing and branding company, 413 Media, after his dad joked with him that he partied so much that he needed to get paid to party. That joke turned into a revelation, an idea, and eventually a thriving business. In this clip, Sav shares that the pandemic impacted his business, and how, together with a ruptured Achilles – he needed new motivation and answers. He brainstormed new business avenues to pursue, and while 413 was his bread and butter, he couldn’t put all his eggs in one basket. We, on the Wealth Preservation Podcast, LOVE when guests are able to share their authentic story about becoming an entrepreneur out of necessity. Not every business is built with a combination of education, deep pockets, and meticulous planning. Most of the time, it’s necessity, grit, and a desire to create something unique.
