What is it like to be a trucker? What are the differences between working for a large carrier, as a trucker, and owning a trucking company? Today's guest Darnell Jacobs, Founder of A List Transportation, LLC has done both and we discussed many of those differences. When Darnell realized school was not his thing, he turned to trucking to provide for his family. We discuss the challenges he faced working for a carrier as well as the challenges of ownership. Bottom line, Darnell wanted to live the way he wanted to live and he knew owning a transportation company was going to give him the freedom and lifestyle he desired. Darnell reinforces that you don't need to go to college to be successful and he has proven that with his success.

Who would ever want to enter the ultra-competitive shoe industry? Who wants to deal with the necessary shoe inventory or necessary marketing budget needed to compete against other shoe manufacturers? Today's guest, Steven Sashen, a former competitive runner, Founder of Xero Shoes, wanted to create shoes that change people's lives. "Letting your feet do what is most natural. Natural movement is key", explains Steven.  It all started with do-it-yourself sandals in 2009. Now in 2021 Xero Shoes has an incredible line of sandals, snow boots, dress boots, water shoes, hiking, running, casual and performance shoes for both men, women and kids. Most impressive, they all come with a 5,000-mile sole warranty, this compares to a 3-500 mile warranty most other shoe manufacturers offer. These natural movement shoes were created because there are so many nerve endings on the foot, which affects how your brain responds to environments and situations. Plus, the comfort, is second to none. Steven was on Shark Tank during Season 4 and continues to be on the Inc. 5000 list. These shoes look different and FEEL different.   Now with over 500 stores globally carrying Xero Shoes and over $20 million in annual sales, find out why everyone is talking these shoes and sandals.    To shop for these amazing shoes go to www.XeroShoes.com, www.XeroShoes.EU and follow them on Social Media @XeroShoes  Thank you for listening to another episode of the Perky Collar Radio Show.

"If you want to go fast, go by yourself. If you want to go far, go with others." This quote is the perfect way to sum up this interview with Jeff Kahl, Founder of Northland Scholars Academy in Dunbar, Wisconsin. To Jeff this 600 acre campus was the home he never had and the largest facility in Wisconsin. This 1,000 student campus was designed to prepare people for non-profit work. Over time it evolved into an International Boarding High School with a capacity of 1,200 beds. 90% of the students are from outside the United States.  This campus started in 1959 when Paul Patz founded a Christian Camp at age 54, he was the founder and CEO of Patz Sales. The original name of the camp was Northland Mission Camp. 1960-1976 the campus primarily operated summer programs and rentals events with family members. In 1976, Northland Baptist Bible Institute was founded to provide ministry training for rural communities and farming families with students who wanted to study and prepare for ministerial careers. This all started with 16 students. In 1978, The school changed from a Bible Institute to a 4 year Christian Training College and hired their 1st president. In 1984, Jeff hitchhiked from Detroit, Michigan to Northland to attend the college. In 1987 Northland Mission Camp changed to Northland Camp and Conference Center. At this time, the camp was growing to one of the largest camps in the midwest. Jeff was hired full time as the Program Director during his senior year in college.   At this time, 400 families were attending Family Camps, 3,500 youth campers, over 5,000 overall campers with 200 staff members.  While camp was growing in popularity so was Northland Baptist Bible College with over 1,000 students from all over the country which equaled the greatest expansion from 1987 to 2003. In 2000, Jeff Kahl became the Camp Director and the Vice President of the college. However, in 2003, Jeff accepted a new leadership role in Michigan and ended his 19-year role at Northland. From 2003-2015, while trying to expand and grow the camp and college, they saw significant losses in students and campers and were forced to close. In 2015, while Jeff was in Nicaragua building another college, he learned of Northland's struggles and made a phone call to offer assistance. Northland accepted his offer, made Jeff the Board of Directors and gave him the opportunity to bring in new board members to salvage the camp, the college was put was on the shelf. In 2017, Jeff Kahl founded the Northland Scholars Academy, a school that would reach the international community and eventually provide enough revenue to keep the camping program functional and the larger campus used.  With new leadership, the campus was back hosting large events, sporting events, fine arts events and anything you can imagine a large campus could support. Then it all collapsed. Jeff was forced to run everything by himself for 6 months with no campers and no students. In 2020, Jeff stayed the course, found some investors to revitalize the campus once again and to this day is a thriving college and camp providing stellar programs and outstanding opportunities for the international community.  Jeff is truly an inspiration and an Entrepreneur that used persistence and passion to make his dream a reality.  Thank you for listening.

The silicone strip prevents the rolling and constant adjustment of the tights and the lace top prevents the discomfort & squeeze effect.

What is the value of a Mastermind Group? We discuss this topic and many more with Brad Hart, Founder of Make More Marbles. Brad learned from his mentor early in life to follow these 3 rules in life and business: 1. Help a Lot of People 2. Have a lot of fun 3. Make a Lot of Money. However, in real estate & finance he found it was more like Hungry Hungry Hippos and difficult to achieve all 3 goals.  As a result, Brad started Make More Marbles to help people Dream It, Research It, Test It and Nail It by guiding people on how to manage money, master marketing and develop mastermind groups. Brad says it is critical to "Learn the Power of Masterminds".  We also learned from Brad the importance of Neuro-Linguistic Programming, or NLP. It provides practical ways in which you can change the way that you think, view past events, and approach your life. Neuro-Linguistic Programming shows you how to take control of your mind, and therefore your life. When dealing with people you need to learn what motivates, drives and pushes away.   To learn more from Brad visit www.8MinuteMastermind.com and as a thank you for listening to this interview, you get 3 bonuses- his book, 8 Minute Mastermind, 101 Questions for Facilitators and more.  Feel free to also visit http://BuildAMastermind.com/Mastermind-Groups for help in setting up your own mastermind group.  You can also find Brad as Brad Hart on Facebook and Linkedin.  Thank you for listening.  Warmest Regards,   David M.

The purpose of the Kato Collar is to slow the head down to avoid concussions and solve burner stinger.

Prior to starting his company in October 2017, he served as an Athletic Trainer for Minnesota State University for 18 years. Jeff attained his education for athletic training at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln graduating with a Bachelor’s degree in Secondary Education and completion of the Athletic Training Education Program. He received his Master’s Degree in Physical Education from the University of Northern Colorado with an emphasis in Sports Medicine in 1985. For 23 years, he has been researching and evaluating the brachial plexus injury to understand prevention methods beyond neck strengthening. During the past ten years, he has analyzed concussion research, including new theories on the causes and mechanisms of concussions. He discovered through research that movement of the head after impact causing brachial plexus injury is one of the same mechanisms causing forces on the brain after impact resulting in concussion. As a result, he designed, developed, and patented a new safety device to protect the head and neck against forces which continue to act on the brain and neck after impact until the head stops moving. He is Founder of Guardian Athletics, an innovative-driven sports company dedicated to player safety.

This interview with Martin Lucas gets to the bottom of "Humans Don't Understand Humans". We take a deep dive into why we do what we do. During this interview we discuss the Architypes of Human Behavior in a consumer setting. These include: Socialable, Planners, Adventurers & Individualist.  We discuss what each type wants when shopping and how crucial it is for the salesperson to recognize how a customer wants to be treated. Most salespeople assume customers want to be treated the way they want to be treated. This way of thinking leaves "75% of customers saying it was not a good retail experience". Does your company use "End Game Thinking"? Does your company assume the customer is there to buy now? Do salespeople understand "He and She Psychology?"   If Facebook understood Human Behavior than why is the average click-through-rate only 1.6%? We go into these and many other nuances of the buying/selling psychological process. Tune in for this fascinating conversation.    To follow and learn more from Martin go to GapintheMatrix.com or e-mail him at Martin@GapintheMatrix.com & follow him on social media.
