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 covering crazy cool businesses I spot, updates on what we're building and buying, and lessons from the journey of an entrepreneur.

For those of you that are new here, every week I send what I call a 1x1x1.
One learning, reminder, or interesting thought from my week.
One interesting find/tool from my week.
One image from my life.
Let's dive in 👇
It's been a really interesting exercise building and buying businesses in parallel.
Deals move slow and fall through constantly.
Builds always take longer than expected for testing and results. Builds also require lots of reps before finding a winner.
I'm definitely in a bit of a trough of sorrow.
God I hate the trough.
For those unfamiliar with the trough, here is my drawing of it (I'm clearly not an artist).
It's always a mission to push through the trough but it almost always pays off.

I'm covering a small amount of tasks for Andrew who operates our Pono Ventures marketing agency while he's out. As a result, I'm back in SmartLead (the tool we use for client outreach) and it just keeps getting better. Their inbox tool allows us to track, direct and manage leads for all our clients in one central location. God I love this product.
Is it sad that one of the most exciting items in my camera roll was homemade fish tacos?
