Worldwide Ty distinguishes operators from managers: operators run the business solo when the owner is gone. While Brent was away, Ty set up credit facilities, payroll, insurance, LLCs in multiple states, work-for-hire templates, payment processes, and relationships with lenders. Managers typically don't do this work.

The difference of an operator and a manager is that an operator can run your business when you're not looking. Management is, is sometimes a lot of managers don't even have the, the skill set developed yet to run a business when somebody's not looking. So that means that when Brent wasn't looking, I was setting up credit facilities, I was setting up payroll operations, I was setting up insurance for our staff that was coming on, I was setting up the LLCs in different states, I was up templates for work-for-hires, who was building out what the processes and procedures are for paying people, right? I was setting up what the strategy is going to be for year 1, 2, 3. I was building out a lot of the relationships that we needed from a conventional loan perspective to fund the company. You know what I'm saying? Managers don't do that.
