Hey, what's up, guys? Ryan here with Esther. She is lying to you right now because she has been throwing temper tantrums all day. And I was gonna record a video for you about something really, really important, but she. She won't go down for her nap, and she's being a real pill. But we've got Moana on. What are we watching? Esther? Yeah. Who's your favorite character of Moana?
Grandma is your favorite character. Moana. Interesting. So I want to share something with you guys, and that is that.
I have a friend, an acquaintance, a mentor, a confidant.
Okay, that's not his name. His name is Jeff woods. And Jeff woods is speaking at the Capitalism conference this year. And he has this. Well, it's not his quote, it's his mentor's quote, which is that when you hit a plateau in your life, it is because you are missing a person. It's not because you're missing a strategy. It's not because you're niwa. Whatever that means. It means that you're missing a person. It means that there's a mentor. It means that there's an employee. It means that there's an affiliate. It means that there's someone in your life that you are missing. Earlier this year, I sold a company and I shifted all of my focus into building out capitalism.com as my empire. As my big empire. You're gonna kill my conversion rate with this video, sweetie. Cause you're the cute one, but you do have a pretty awesome Indian shirt on. What? Happy? Yeah, Moana's happy. And what I started doing in the last couple of months was putting out feelers for. For bringing on team members that have three criteria. And.
That'S right. Moana's happy. So there's. There's three things that I find in team members that are my criteria for hiring A players.
And they are that they've done what you want to do before. That they're super passionate about what you are doing in the world as a company. And number three, they come with a Rolodex of people that can support you. Esther knows the words to the song Isn't that cute? It's my little girl. I made her. You should have seen her half hour ago when she was screaming, though. So the three criteria for hiring A players, they've done it before, they come with a roll decks, and they're super passionate about what it is that you are building. So there's a breakout happening at the Capitalism conference with two of our community members, Kevin Shirk and I Just got him backwards. Keviny Pascaveny, Jeremy Shirk and Kevin Pascoe. They're doing a session on hiring a players. And what you're gonna find there is a recurring theme that comes up in every business that breaks through a plateau is gonna become about they built a team and that is how they.
That'S how they really broke through. That is how they got independent of Amazon. That is how they grew from seven figures to eight figures. That is going to be a recurring theme that you will hear. So if you are at a plateau in your life, if you don't know how you're going to grow beyond where you are, you're missing a person, you are not missing a strategy or a hack. And the best place for you to. Oh, oh, is this part scary, Esther? Yeah. Okay, well then here we can just make this video. We'll just sit by the laundry here and we'll make a video. Okay? Yeah. So if you want to get around people that are really going to stretch you and take you beyond where you are both in strategy, in building teams, in investing, the best place to do that is at events and networking meetups. I also build teams by getting plugged into industry movers and shakers, by getting plugged into recruiters. And that's how I go and recruit talent. And we are doing an event, a meetup In Austin, Texas, December 7th, 8th and 9th with entrepreneurial empire builders. Empire builders have three things in common. They are building something with at least a seven figure vision. Alright, go ahead sweetie, you can watch Moana. They at least are building something towards seven figures. I just crossed eight figures and now I'm working towards nine. So I've brought in entrepreneurial empire builders who have built nine figure empires in the past, putting them on stage so that I can learn all the strategies and the habits of how they did it. And I'm inviting you to come to join us this December 7th, 8th and 9th in Austin for the Capitalism Conference. You're also going to learn how to build teams. You're going to meet people like Jeff woods who are going to show you how to actually lay out the direction and the vision of what it is that you want to build. You're going to meet with Brian Lee, the founder of the Honest Company. You'll meet Kimbal Musk's brother, Kimball, Musk's brother Elon Musk's brother Kimball. He is Elon's closest advisor. We've put together a panel of investment experts who are going to help you invest for passive income. And we've also got a group of Amazon sellers and E commerce experts who can show you how to make the pivot go beyond seven figures and grow towards eight. So if you have hit a plateau in your life, you're missing a person, and my guess is that person is going to be at the Capitalism conference. So I'm inviting you to join us in a few weeks here in Austin, a few blocks from here. And the people that can help you grow beyond your plateau are going to be here. So I hope to see you in Austin, Texas, for the Capitalism Conference. We'll see you guys there.
