We have a very special episode for all of you real estate investors this week.  But, even if you’re not a real estate investor, you’re going to get a TON of great tips out of this show! Nathan Brooks -- founder of Bridge Turnkey Investments and #1304 on this years INC 5000 list -- has built a turn-key real estate investment firm that has bought, renovated and sold over 500 houses in the past 5 years.  While we talk a lot about real estate in this episode, we focus on growing and scaling a business, whatever industry it might be in. Just some of topics we cover in this jam-packed episode: Using Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) in your business to track and optimize. Creating processes to scale your business, including when NOT to create processes. Building an amazing culture within your organization, whether you have one employee or 100 employees. And don’t miss the part of the episode where Nathan gives some absolutely fantastic tips on how to find employees, how to interview them, and how to make successful hiring decisions.  Make sure you listen for Nathan’s unconventional -- but absolutely spot-on -- tip about that one things we tend to avoid when hiring, but that we should instead be focused on! Plus, Nathan gives nearly a dozen of his favorite book recommendations, many that I promise you’ve never even heard of.
