Ben Sampson Headshot

Hey, I'm Ben!

I build, buy, and invest in businesses.

I've had 2 successful exits. Way more failures.

I write about building Freedom Companies to achieve what I call the three freedoms:

A life of financial freedom.
A life of time freedom.
A life of creative freedom.

I send one action packed email a week called a 1x1x1 where I write about businesses and people that I think are inspirational when it comes to creating freedom in their lives, or updates on the businesses we're building and buying.

This newsletter is the highlight of my week and I hope I can inspire and guide you to building your own freedom company.

Ben's 1x1x1 - March 22, 2024 🚀

For those of you that are new here, every week I send what I call a 1x1x1.

One learning or interesting item from my week.
One interesting find/tool from my week.
One image from my life.

Let's dive in 👇

Learning/reminder of the week

Documentation is game changing.


One of our businesses Wealth Leads is tracking to 2X this quarter. That's great but it means a lot less time building and a lot more time working in the business doing client fulfillment. It was time to hire.

We brought on a new full time project manager and we're already seeing the relief. We could have seen relief substantially faster though with good documentation. I need to stop being such a slob!

Good reminder for myself to clean up my current processes even if I'm the only one in the process during this time. Good documentation not only is great for onboarding team members at an accelerated pace. It also makes it much easier to sell the business if we ever go down that path.

Interesting item/tool of the week

Zapier is the freaking best. I use it everywhere! There new AI functionality is pretty incredible as well. I literally just tell it "connect my email form submissions from my website to Convert Kit" and it does it. Can I call myself a developer now?

Image from my life

Are St. Patty's day traditions have changed quite a bit over the last few years!

See you all next week!
