How many times have you set ambitious goals in January—only to realize by December that they never left the paper? In this episode of the Idaho Business Podcast, Spencer dives into the powerful framework from The 12 Week Year by Brian Moran and Michael Lennington.

You’ll learn why breaking your goals into 12-week “years” creates urgency, focus, and accountability. Spencer explains how simple tracking sheets can transform both personal and team performance—and why hitting even 85% of your weekly actions leads to excellence.

From sales teams closing more deals to service companies improving customer retention, you’ll hear practical examples of how this system works in the real world. As Peter Drucker famously said, “What gets measured gets managed.”

If you’re tired of watching your goals slip away year after year, this episode will give you the tools and mindset to finally execute with discipline and consistency.

In this episode of the Idaho Business Podcast, Spencer unpacks the timeless principle of under-promising and over-delivering. From car detailers and roofers to bankers and janitorial companies, too many businesses fall into the trap of overpromising results—and losing trust when reality doesn’t measure up.

Spencer shares real-world stories (including one costly lesson of his own) and insights from leaders like Warren Buffett, Jeff Bezos, Patrick Bet-David, and Ed Mylett on how proper expectation-setting creates long-term loyalty, higher customer satisfaction, and stronger business relationships.

If you want customers who stick around for years—not months—this episode is a must-listen.

What really drives you once the bills are paid and the money’s flowing? For many entrepreneurs, the hunger changes—but it never goes away.

Featuring insights from Ed Mylett and Patrick Bet-David, this conversation challenges you to ask: What fuels you now—and what will fuel you when business slows down or retirement is on the horizon?

This week my boys started tackle football, and I watched them grind through brutal conditioning drills. My daughters do the same in gymnastics—building muscle, endurance, and focus just to compete. So why do we think business should be any different? In this episode, I break down why conditioning your mind and skills is just as critical in business as it is in sports. Whether it’s mastering sales conversations, tightening up your craft, or putting in the reps on leadership, those “extra laps” may be the difference between running a 6-figure hustle or building a 7-figure business.

23 miles. 3,400 vertical feet. 2.5 days. And a group of tired but determined hikers who proved you can accomplish way more in less time than you think.

In this episode, I share the lessons from a recent hike I took with my sons and some young men from church—and how they apply directly to business. Too often, we drag out goals that could be knocked out in 30 minutes, or we set annual targets that let us procrastinate until Q4. I’ll show you how to speed up your results, set tighter deadlines, and move the needle faster in your business and life. Along the way, I’ll pull in wisdom from Patrick Bet-David and The E-Myth to help you shift from slow and safe to fast and focused.
