Clay Clark Client Testimonials | “We Have More Than Doubled the Number of Calls We Get & the Best Thing Is That the People Who Call Us Now Are Truly Interested In Hiring Us! So It’s Been a Really Good Thing.”

Audio Transcription

Clay, my honor, my honor to be on your show. And thank you for all you do. I hear the ripple effects from you are good ripple effects. You know what I mean? People rave about what they learned from you. So congratulations.

I’m Dan Honan with Custom Automation Technologies in Columbus, Ohio. And one of the best things he’s done for us is to get us ranked high on Google searches. We’ve more than doubled the number of calls we get from Google searches and the best thing though is that people that call us now are people that are truly interested in hiring us. They’re not just kicking the tire and looking around

and that kind of thing. So it’s been a really good thing for us to get highly ranked on Google. Thanks, Clay. What I’ve seen from Clay and his group at Thrive is they’ll give you a simple system.

And it’s the simple systems are the ones that people can wrap their brain around. They’re the ones that people can work with on a day-to-day basis. Hi there, my name is Stephanie Pipkin. I am 24 years old and I own

Black River Falls Cleaning Services. We opened in April of 2019 and it is now mid-June of 2020. So I wanted to talk today about the success and growth I have achieved by implementing the Proven Path with Clay Clark’s team and my business coach Luke from Thrive Time. It has been insane to say the least. I started working with them in mid-February of this year, so we’re about

four months in of working together and it has completely transformed my business in pretty much every facet. So I’m gonna check my notes here. So in four months, my leads have tripled. I was getting probably like two leads a week. Now I’m getting more in the like 10 to 15 leads a week. I have doubled my number of employees.

I’m now hitting the highest revenue weeks in the history of the company, week to week it seems like. We went from about six appointments today as our highest in February to now 14 to 15 appointments a day. And hiring quality employees has become much simpler and less stressful by using their systems for hiring. I typically only get maybe two complaints a month if that and everybody shows up to work. I just have really high quality employees now, especially in something people typically consider a high

turnover type of work, you know, cleaning houses, cleaning businesses. I have amazing employees now and I get rid of the ones who are not so amazing and bring on new ones because of, you know, group interviews and interviewing every single week. It’s just been great and I don’t waste as much time on low quality candidates anymore. And your coach will hold you accountable, which I love. Again, the tough love is really great.

Luke’s like a stern father figure, but he’s also nice, but also stern when he needs to be when I’m being lazy and not doing the things that I know I need to do because I don’t want to do them so that’s just great. Worth every penny I mean I’d pay him a million dollars a month if I can and maybe someday I’ll be able to but I would just say go for it if it seems like a good fit just go for it do. Do what they say, even if you think it’s stupid or ridiculous, just do what they say because it’ll work. You know, people, when

they look at my business, you know, people in my town, they think I’m lucky. They think I’m just, you know, things just happen for me. And you know, maybe I am lucky, but it has a lot to do with hard work and perseverance and working till you cry sometimes. That’s just being an entrepreneur, which if you’re a business owner, you understand that.

But it’s having these systems in place of, of course I’m gonna be successful. It’s an absolute because I have all this stuff in the background happening and I have Luke and Clay and everybody on their team working really hard to make sure that I’m a success. And I can tell that they are just so excited every single week when I’m having all these wins and things like that. They’re so excited for me. So it just

it’s the best thing ever and I would suggest to anybody to work with them. So sorry for the long-winded reply but I just had so much to say and I could go on for hours probably about how amazing they are. But thank you to Clay and Luke and the entire team there. Everything you guys have done for me. And I am so excited to continue to work with you for years to come.

Thanks so much for watching. My saying is, if it’s important to you, hire a coach. And I think that’s one of the reasons people are not successful is they, you know, they eat a cheeseburger instead of hiring a coach, you know, they eat a cheeseburger instead

of hiring a coach, you know, I mean, and so my coach pushes me they’re younger than me, they push harder, they’re, they’re trained. And as my rich dad always said, you know, amateurs don’t have a coach, but professionals always have coaches. So I’ve always had coaches for whatever was important.

My Rich Dad was one of those persons. I wanted to learn how to play Monopoly in real life. So he was my coach. Well, Carter, you know, we have an opportunity here at the Thrive Time Show to work with some really great business owners, people that are actually as my coach. I hop on the phone with these folks and we figure out the if they’re a good fit and Once we start working with a client Our goal is to help the client to actually grow their actual business and on today’s show we’re joined With a man who we’ve had the opportunity to work with the company’s called NWA gutter

Perfection and my understanding Carter is that they’re up over 60%. Is that right? I would say that’s correct, yes. DJ, welcome on to the Thrive Time Show. How are you, sir? Good.

How are you doing, Clay? I’m doing great. So for anybody out there who is doubting whether you’re a hologram or not, what’s the name of your company, sir? Gutter Perfection. How did you guys first hear about us? Do you know?

It’s actually a friend of mine found out about your business conferences there. And then we went there and I guess I was sold the first conference we went to. If you go to nwagutterperfection.com you can see they’re a real company, they’re a real business, they really are growing.

What markets do you service there DJ for people out there that might be looking for your services, what’s the market area that you service? Pretty much all of northwest Arkansas, Bentonville, Springdale, Fayetteville, Rogers, you know the little surrounding towns there too. And again if you go to the website here folks, nwagutterperfection.com, you can see they are a real business, real people having real success.

DJ, I really do appreciate your time today, sir. And we’ll talk to you soon. What I’ve seen from Clay and his group at Thrive is they’ll give you a simple system and it’s the simple systems are the ones that people can wrap their brain around. They’re the ones that people can work with on a day-to-day basis.

And that simplicity brings power with it. So it shocked me how simple some of the stuff is. And at times I’m like, why did not think about that? Workflow creation, systematic marketing, and coaching has helped our church so much. You know the workflow creation is what it really is is they’re gonna look and see every moving part of your church of

your ministry. What needs to be done and it’s going to go up on a massive board. And so now what it does is it takes what you know needs to be done out of your heart and out of your head. Really takes the pressure, the stress off your shoulders and it puts it on the board where your entire team, your ministry can see exactly what you want them to do every day. And so they know this is the playbook, this is what we’re doing. And then there’s a laser-sharp

accountability with a meeting afterwards, did it get done or not? know this is the playbook, this is what we’re doing. And then there’s a laser sharp accountability with a meeting afterwards, did it get done or not? Clay, you’re an entrepreneur, I’m an entrepreneur. And as they say in Stoic, the obstacle is the way. I think YouTube is a tremendous educational platform for good and bad.

So you’ve got to really again, choose your teachers wisely as anything else. So the biggest, best lesson sits in the back here. I think you do it and Dr. Z does it. Once you learn something, if you really want to learn it, you got to teach it.

I think it was a life-changing for me and how I approach business. Could you explain Okta non-verba what it means and how our listeners can apply it? Clay, you gave me goosebumps, man. I’m glad it hit you as hard as it did. Okta non-verba is the model of the U.S.

Merchant Marine Academy at Kings Point, New York. I had appointments with Naval Academy and Kings Point Merchant Marine Academy. And Merchant Marine Academy’s motto was Octononverba. In other words, don’t listen to what a person says, watch what they do. Well, the first time that I ever met you, Clay, was at that first conference in Tulsa,

and that was an incredible conference. And I was so impressed with just the whole thing, just the professionalism, you as a person, your business, your work ethic, and really just who you are. And I was very impressed with all

of that. And I thought, gosh, you know, this might be someone that I would really consider working with. Like maybe he could really help me. And that’s really what got me interested because I was so impressed with just the professionalism of all of it. And I learned a lot. I come about once a year to a business conference and I’d like to come more, but every year I try to come with my marketing girl with me

and we always learn something. We always learn something. And I think next year I’m going to bring my husband because he really needs to come too. And you’re in McKinney, Texas, right?

So how long have you been an orthodontist in McKinney, Texas? So I’ve been an orthodontist for 26 years. And when you went to medical school, what percentage of the time in medical school or dentistry school, dental school, did they spend the time in medical school or dentistry school, dental school, did they spend teaching you how to market and or grow your own practice?

Absolutely zero, zero marketing skills. And I, and from when I talked to Andrew, you’re the coach who works with you, I’m always hearing that you’re more and more patients are coming in from Google. Could you talk about that? How much of an impact does it had having a maybe a rebranded or updated website and Google leads coming in? It has had a huge difference Absolutely huge difference in our patient load coming in.

And you know, before I really wasn’t tracking really well. And that’s one of the things I learned from Thrive Time Business was how to track patients coming in, how to really, how to see where they’re coming from. And at the time, I really didn’t know much about Google. And you know, being an orthodontist for 26 years, I didn’t really know a lot of, I kind of went through a time where I went through shock.

It was really what I call culture shock because the old ways of marketing were not working anymore. And because I really didn’t know about online marketing, I really didn’t, I was still doing, you know, phone book ads and magazine ads and all of these things. And so Thrive Time has really helped.

And I will take, I will say that it’s a process. It doesn’t happen overnight, but if you stay the course, you’re gonna see results because I’m absolutely convinced. Dr. Christ, thank you for allowing us to take up some of your valuable time today. I really do appreciate you.

And I can’t wait to see it in person here soon. All right, thanks so much, Clay. Clay Clark is here somewhere. Where’s my buddy Clay so much, Clay. goats, his chickens, his dogs.

March 6th and 7th, you’re going to be joined by Robert Kiyosaki, best-selling author of Rich Dad Poor Dad, probably the best-selling or one of the best-selling business authors of all time. And he’s going to be joined with Eric Trump. He’ll be joined by Eric Trump.

We got Eric Trump and Robert Kiyosaki in the same place. In the same place. Aaron, why should everybody show up to hear Robert Kiyosaki? Well you got billions of dollars of business experience between those two. Not to mention many, many, many millions of books have been sold. Many, many millionaires have been made from the books that have been sold. Many many millionaires have

been made from the books that have been sold by Robert Kiyosaki. I happen to be one of them. I learned from the man. He was the inspiration. That book was the inspiration for me to get the entrepreneurial spirit as many other people. Now since you won’t brag on yourself, I will. You’ve sold billions of dollars of houses, am I correct? That is true. And the book that kick-started it all for you, Rich Dad Poor Dad, the best-selling author of Rich Dad Poor Dad, Robert Kiyosaki,

Trump was the 45th president of these United States and soon to be the 47th president of these United States, soon to be the 47th president of these United States.

He needed someone to run the companies for him. And so the man that runs the Trump organization for Donald J. Trump as he was the 45th president of the United States and now the 47th president of the United States is Eric Trump. So Eric Trump is here to talk about time management, promoting from within, marketing, branding, quality control, sales systems, workflow design,

workflow mapping, how to build. I mean, everything that you see, the Trump hotels, the Trump golf courses, all their products, the man who manages billions of dollars of real estate and thousands of employees is here to teach us how to do it. You are talking about one of the greatest brands on the planet from a business standpoint.

I mean, who else has been able to create a brand like the Trump brand? I mean, look at it. And this is the man behind the business for the last pretty much since 2015. He’s been the man behind it.
