you kind of got a moral obligation to grow your audience when you've putting out the truth, especially if you're not, I always make it a very big statement to say, I make a lot of money and I do a lot of garage doors. That's the people I put out our newsletter. And I think we charge like 15 bucks a month. I lose money on it. Like postage in the time we take to put it together.
I'm like, guys, even if I sold 10,000 of these and made a buck and, You know, if I do the math, I pretty much, every day that I don't go into work, every day, including the weekends, is worth 700 grand profit to me. Going on the next turn with PE, my percentage. 700 a day. So, like, I don't care about the newsletter. I'm trying to get the, I don't market in the newsletter.
Like, I just wish people understood that.
I don't understand how people just scroll the internet and just leave bad comments. Yeah. They're living somewhere. Yeah. I feel like they're really just – there are so many victims, and they have nothing better to do. It's like over and over and over. You know why, though?
So today, I literally I stood up. We have our bring the fire meeting. Every single employee is on there. And I said, we've analyzed the numbers. And in true form, the top 20% of the company is bringing 80% of the profit. And I'm like, there's about 60% of you in the middle and 20% on the bottom. I said, I'm going to make you guys a deal right now. I'll Venmo you guys $500 to quit.
I said, and I'll write you the best recommendation letter you've ever had. I said, because quite honestly, I can't believe in you when you don't believe in yourself. I'm going to give you every opportunity to win. And if you want it, I'll bleed for you. But this bracelet right here says aspire to be number one. And, guys, I can't do this. I cannot get behind people that don't like to win.
And I hate to lose more than I like to win. And, you know, some of you guys are okay being okay. And I don't want you to say in 20 years that I worked under Tommy because the people that I want working with me are going to say they got more than they ever intended to, that their dreams came true. And you guys, if you don't want it, I'm sorry. Just let's do each other a favor and leave.
I'll write you the nicest letter. I'll send you 500 bucks. I'll send you more than that if you need that. But just if you're not willing to push yourself and admit you need more help and ask for it, then this is a lose-lose for us. So you need to decide whether you get up or get out. Because it's not even about the money. This is about changing your life. This is about showing up for your kids.
This is about showing your wife that you're a good man when you come home. And you're not worn out. And it's starting to eat healthy. And it's starting to look people's in the eye when you talk. And it's showing up for your family in a whole new way. And I don't care if we set records. I don't even care if we freaking lose money this month, this year. I'm going to be okay.
But I'm not going to be okay knowing I didn't do the best I could for you. And if I can't help you, I don't think you should be here. Just admit it. Hey, real quick, before we jump back into the episode, my team just sent me something really cool, and I had to share it with you. It was a comment from Landon Taylor after he came to last year's Freedom event.
Landon said, my dad was a general contractor for over 30 years. And if he had access to an event like this, it would have changed everything. I kind of felt like I was attending on his behalf. Man, I love that because that's what this event is about. Not just the marketing or sales tips to up your revenue. It's about giving guys in the trade something most of us never had growing up.
Access to home service legends and a community of ambitious owners. who want to be number one, like me and you. That's what Freedom 2025 is all about. If you want in, go to freedomevent.com and grab your early bird ticket while the bonuses are still available. Over $5,240 in tools to help you scale. That's freedomevent.com. Now let's get back to it.
And it drives me to plan to get way better. I mean, I just hired a cornhole coach, like to get better at cornhole. Like literally like I hire coaches all the time. I want to go back to one thing because I think it's important. And like the first thing I just was on stage this week and it was only about 150 people.
And I said, all you guys divest out of the one thing, your best investment, which is your home service company. Those are typical stages for me, home service. I go, a lot of you guys are going to do Airbnbs and VRBOs and you're investing in your buddy's barber shop and you've invested in a storage facility. You're divesting out of the one thing you need. You spend five years of sweat equity.
You go hard in the pit. You give it everything you got. And the day it starts returning, the ROI comes in. We need to buy a Harley because we want to go to Sturgis and we deserve it. We need to buy that second house on the river. We should get into Airbnb. What in the hell?
If you double down on the one thing that's bringing you guys everything because there's this crazy thing out there that nobody understands. Brandon, I don't know how to explain this to people.
This idea of arbitrage, nobody understands this. I literally sit down to people and I'm like, okay, guys, listen. And there's a question I ask. I say, listen, what do you want to sell your business? How many people want to sell in under five years? There's three out of 150 hands that go up. And I go, why? And some of them go, well, we want to do what you do.
We want to get to $100 million valuation. Okay, why? Most broke people know how they're gonna spend the money. Or like we want to help everybody. Like all you need is $5 million. I'm sorry. Like I've done very well, but like you could buy a nice house. But when you have money, every door opens. There's like you've got access. You can hire coaches. It's this crazy thing.
It's like if I told everybody like sell your business within three years. And then here's the thing. If I was to tell you we're selling your business in six months, what would you do? Well, I know I'd fire this guy, fire this guy, move this guy up. I'd get rid of the bad trucks. I'd go out and clean this up. I'd finally paint this area. I'd make like, why don't you do that today? Yeah. Yeah.
Like I was with Robert the other day and Robert said, raise your hand. And then he said, higher, higher, higher. And it's like, you got to tell people, like, why does it take everything bad to happen or this life occurrence for you to want to change your life or get into shape or eat healthy or get rid of the brain fog? I don't get it.
