“What I deem as hustle is getting very clear on where you need to go and doing everything necessary to get there…. but, you don’t have to do it all alone.” Trevor Mauch, CEO of Carrot
I used to think that if I just worked hard enough, I could make something big happen… I would feel a real sense of accomplishment… I could be in a spot where I could rest and finally be happy with my efforts.
But, it wasn’t until this one thing that I’m about to share with you that everything started to change for me.
As our business grows at a rapid rate, I’m continually forced to step back and reevaluate everything we’re doing and get back to my ‘why’.
Listen in and find out how you can get away from the grind, do more of what matters, and break free from stressful, crazy workdays.

Long story short, I had my main guy that had worked with for ten years, did all of my rehabs, totally trusted him. I was getting ready to go out of town and he was going to be finished with this job before I got back and I prepaid him and also loaded up a Home Depot card. I can home and no work was done and he was nowhere to be found. Tyler Ford
I’m crazy excited about this CarrotCast guest. Let me introduce you to Tyler Ford because his story is exactly why we do what do here at Carrot.
People ask us why we do what we do. It’s not for the lead generation side of things.
That’s what we do.
That’s how we help our clients crush it and grow predictable, consistent, profitable businesses. They finally have freedom, flexibility, finances, and can make an impact. That’s why we do it. That’s what we do.
Why we do it is exactly Tyler’s story. He’s gonna walk through how he was … he’s been in real estate for 20 years, and he was about to give up his entire business January of 2017, and he made one change that he’s gonna be talking about on the episode of the CarrotCast that made the years to his real estate career he’s ever had, the happiest he’s ever been in his business, and he’s also growing.
It’s still just him and his wife flipping but he’s growing his agent business and he’s insanely happy. He’s gaining momentum, and every one of us wants momentum.
As entrepreneurs, momentum is so, so important. When you don’t have it, you can feel it. You’re down, you’re out, you’re getting stressed, you’re tired. You just don’t feel like you’re doing the right things. When you have it, nothing can go wrong and that’s where Tyler is right now.
So, if you guys wanna know how he unlocked that momentum, and how he went from almost giving up his 20-year real estate business January of 2017 to now, completely shifted, happy, most profitable as ever, he’s gonna tell you.
But first, he mentions a couple episodes of the CarrotCast in here that changed his life, and some of these things were some of those pivotal points for him that changed his mindset, that got him thinking in a different way.
So, key into those podcast episodes.
One of them is my Five Non-Negotiables episode. We’ve actually done this one twice, go back in the archives in iTunes or on CarrotCast.com. Find the one about my five non-negotiables.
That one changed my life and Tyler mentioned it changed his life as well.
There are a couple of other resources there, too. I want you to go to testcarrot.xyz/Tyler and you’re gonna be able to go to this episode if you’re listening to it on iTunes or watching it on YouTube, and you’re gonna be able to download Tyler’s SEO strategy for real estate investors that he developed in conjunction with our formula during 2017 that helped him get that momentum.
So, this is basically a process of formula that you can follow if you’re in a spot in your business to where you’re not having as much fun as you wanna have or it’s not as profitable as you wanna have it.
Without further ado, let’s welcome in Tyler Ford.
