In an industry that's constantly evolving, doing things the traditional way can leave us behind. It's not enough to follow the crowd anymore; we need to think differently and add real value to our approaches.

Seeing an opportunity and taking it requires a mindset shift and the willingness to break away from the norm. There are so many opportunities that are ripe for the taking but we need to be able to rethink approaches to get the most value out of them.

What does it mean to truly disrupt an industry? Is going against the grain worth it?

In this episode, founder and CEO of Lamassu Media Scott Morse joins me to talk about his journey disrupting the world of real estate, how his humble beginnings shaped him into a success and why self-education is so important.

Guest Bio:

Scott Morse began his journey at the age of 20 as a sales agent. As he delved deeper into sales, he realized it was a field he wanted to pursue long-term. This realization spurred him to educate himself over the years, allowing him to build a successful career in the real estate industry. In 2011, Scott decided to start his own company, leveraging a significant opportunity by finding a solution to a major gap in the business between motivated sellers and investors. This innovation helped him become the bridge that leads to highly potential close deals in real time. In 2020, after moving to Colombia, Scott expanded his company by forming strategic partnerships, creating a business aimed at impacting others through his services and replicating the successes he had previously achieved. His brand quickly grew through word of mouth due to the unprecedented results his company was delivering.

Today, Scott is proud to have established the largest cold calling center, steering a team of over 180 individuals dedicated to generating highly qualified, highly motivated leads for wholesalers and investors nationwide. Beyond his entrepreneurial ventures, Scott cultivates an amazing work environment that nurtures professional and personal growth for all his team members, empowering individuals to achieve their goals and aspirations.

As entrepreneurs, one of our main focuses is freedom and taking back our time but also fulfilling our goals. But when we’re new to the game, those things can seem out of reach and impossible to achieve.

Surrounding ourselves with people who inspire us, understand our ambitions, and see the possibilities just like we do can be a game-changer. Those are the people who will lift us up, encourage us, and help us navigate the challenges of entrepreneurship with a positive mindset.

The 4th of July is a day that should be about the pride and joy of living in the land of the free. Very often, it passes without the celebration it deserves. The very essence of the 4th of July is to remember and honor the sacrifices made to secure our liberty.

Yet, each year, fewer and fewer people take the time to truly appreciate and commemorate this significant day.

Why is it that so few people celebrate the USA and the precious freedom we have? Have we forgotten the significance of this day?

In this episode, I talk about commemorating the profound sacrifices made to establish and protect the freedom we now enjoy and the importance of acknowledging what this day truly means.

Freedom is NOT free.- Chris Naugle.

After covid, the virtual workplace exploded as businesses pivoted to remote work, seeing massive time and cost savings. Yet, despite these undeniable benefits, many entrepreneurs still hesitate to trust remote work and virtual assistants.

What exactly is holding so many people back? Are we clinging to outdated notions of how work should be done? The truth is, virtual assistants are not just capable—they excel at providing the flexibility and efficiency a business needs.

Think about it: How much valuable time is wasted on tasks that a skilled virtual assistant could handle? How many pointless meetings eat away at our day when a quick email or project update would suffice? Every minute lost to inefficiency is a minute robbed from driving our businesses forward.
