Recently, Ashley and I have had the privilege of meeting with some young couples and talking to them as they're just coming into marriage or preparing to be married. They often ask us a variety of questions, as you would expect from anyone talking to a couple who’s been married for a while. One of the big issues that consistently comes up early in marriage—and continues to show up later—is the issue of money. That’s been true in our marriage as well. It makes sense that money and finances are also a very real issue for business owners, especially those who are married and both spouses work in the business. So let’s have that discussion. I think it’s really helpful, and I want to drill it down to one financial dashboard that can bring clarity. Because that’s our ultimate goal—to liberate you from chaos and make time for what matters most. By the way, my name is Scott Beebe. If we haven’t met yet, I’m part of the Business On Purpose team. A lot of times we meet people who say, “Hey, I’ve got a vision for what I

We have the opportunity to be out in front of business owners and with business owners a lot—both in our speaking and our coaching. One of the things we hear over and over again is the sense that people just don't want to work, or that they're not willing to do the things we need them to do. Or, “It's just easier if I do it myself,” right? Well, the reality is a lack of clarity leads to confusion. So, at least from an owner's perspective, we can do our part in bringing the clarity. Hey, it's Scott Beebe with Business On Purpose. It's time to be liberated from chaos—to make time for what matters most. Make sure to check out the Dickey and Donnie podcast on the Business On Purpose channel. Let’s explore the concept of creating clarity to combat chaos in your business. See, when you try to do everything yourself, confusion usually follows. And that confusion is where chaos thrives—imagine it as a breeding ground for chaos. You might find yourself at the end of a workday wondering, “Where did all the time go?” an

If you go way back thousands of years, you can actually read a historical account of a guy named Bezalel. In this account, it says that God gave him a skill—the ability to build, to create craftsmanship in all sorts of crafts, and also to teach. At Business On Purpose, we are firmly convinced that God has given each of us a capability—or multiple capabilities—to do certain things. But within that, we also lack capabilities in other areas. Yet as business owners, we often spend a lot of time doing things that drain energy from our souls. What we want to do is help you focus on your narrow brilliance so you can be liberated from chaos and make time for what matters most. Hey, it’s Scott PB with Business On Purpose. Be sure to check out the Dickie and Donnie Show on this Business On Purpose thread—it’s a great podcast put together by two of our guys. Anyone will love it—business owners, key leaders, even your kids. Now, let’s talk about how to build a chaos-free operating system so that we business owners and ke

In preparing for this recording, it just gave me a total PTSD flashback to the pandemic. And we had the Great Resignation. Oh, my goodness. At the time of this recording, it’s 2025. I was just thinking about that, and I was also thinking about this idea that once we find a great teammate—a great team member—we want so badly to keep them. I think about the NCAA collegiate coaches right now and what they're having to do, working so hard not just to find new talent, but to keep the talent they already have. It's so easy for these players to go back and forth. So let's talk about this idea of retention in your business so that you can make sure to retain the right talent—the talent that is really offering a lot of value not only to the business and the mission itself, but also to the actual team members. They're finding joy in their work. So let's see if we can liberate you from chaos by helping you retain the right talent. It's Scott Beebe with Business On Purpose again.

When we first meet business owners, it's kind of like anything else. We try to make ourselves look better than we typically are doing. And so we tell some stories that may or may not be true. In that process of getting to know business owners, we realize that there's a lot underneath the surface that we want to be able to explore—to see, ultimately, for one purpose: to liberate them from chaos and make time for what matters most. We're not impressed by storytelling much anymore because we've heard so many stories. By the time we peel back the curtain, we realize, "Oh, you're just like everybody else." And now we can get to work. Once we realize that, we can really get to work and take the sheen off. I want to explore something that we hear a lot from business owners when they first tell us everything’s rosy, everything’s good. And then we realize, “I’m not the best communicator. I really kind of stink at it.” Not only that, but my time starts to go away because I feel like I’m having to recommunicate over and

Well, it's first thing here in the office. These are the times that, when I'm in town—we travel quite a bit for work—I like to be able to come in when it’s not super busy because you can actually get a lot of things done. But how do you know that you're not really tiptoeing around like a mouse, micromanaging everybody else that's coming in, and making them feel this pressure, like you're constantly looking over their shoulder? We have a tool called the Seesaw of Predictability I wanted to introduce you to. Hey, it's Scott Beebe with Business On Purpose. Make sure you tune in to every episode of the Business On Purpose podcast. Also, two of our guys, Sean and Brandon, have started the Dickie and Donnie Do Business podcast. You want to make sure it’s on your radar—go listen to every episode. My kids are listening to it, a lot of our clients are listening to it, and many folks who are not yet clients are listening too. It’s a fascinating podcast. So let's talk about this issue of micromanagement. Understanding t

I've worked in and around plenty of people during my day, as I'm sure you have, that had the title of leader. And yet, the fruit of their work was a little suspect based on their title. In reality, we could call it micromanagement. But how do we know the difference? Hey, it's Scott Beebe with Business On Purpose. Let's talk about that briefly here for about four or five minutes. I think it'll be really helpful in understanding how you can motivate a team, a workforce, and keep those separate between leadership and micromanagement. Let's call it out when it is. Sometimes we just have weak moments and we get into that. But we want to be clear. Leadership is not an abstract concept; it's a practical skill—something you can hone that’s essential for success in any business. As a leader, your primary role is to equip your people with the knowledge and tools they need to handle ongoing challenges and then proactively sharpen those tools through what we call the RPMs of great leadership: Repetition, Predictability,

We were in Dallas last week and had a number of people come up to us after our sessions, workshops, or keynotes asking a variety of questions. A lot of those questions were around employees—how to find them, recruit them, hire them, and retain them. One of the biggest subsets of questions we heard was: do we hire for experience or do we hire for potential? In other words, do we hire somebody who's expensive, has been in the business a long time, and theoretically knows what they're doing? Or do we hire someone who's a little green behind the ears—maybe not as heavy on the investment side, but who will require a lot of internal training? It's a great question, and one I want to tackle today. This is Scott Beebe with Business on Purpose. I'm super excited to be able to help liberate you from chaos and help you make time for the things that matter most. Hang tight until the end—I’ll give you a couple of resources I think will be really helpful for you. When you hire someone for your business, you have to underst

All things in life have their chicken-and-egg debate—Which one came first?
