  • Hit and miss

    Some great content but also some very average, Daniel is basically very anti corporate and thinks the only path to success is small business. Also if you listen to some of the earlier episodes I question the values set but will leave that to listeners.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

#289 Andrew Herrmann - Sales Is Still King
Q: Do you think salespeople are born or made?
Andrew believes salespeople can be trained and developed, though some may have natural strengths in conversation and quick thinking. The core driver remains relentless practice, high activity, and following a proven process.
#276 Lachlan Vidler - Smart Investing in a Tough Market
Q: Where should someone start building a property portfolio in 2026 according to Lachlan?
Start with an investment-grade property, possibly in a regional area with strong growth or near beaches, and balance yield with long-term capital growth while considering grants and program eligibility.
#276 Lachlan Vidler - Smart Investing in a Tough Market
Q: Why does Atlas only work with investment properties and not personal residences?
To avoid emotional reactions to aspects like light switches or color choices and instead concentrate on long-term investment value and rental yield.
#276 Lachlan Vidler - Smart Investing in a Tough Market
Q: What makes Lachlan stand out as a buyer's agent for a TV show like Budget Battlers?
Atlas focuses strictly on investment properties, avoiding owner-occupied purchases, which Lachlan argues gives them a sharper, less emotionally influenced perspective and a clearer path to building wealth.
#277 Gael Donnay - How Businesses Are Using AI to Win
Q: What's the biggest challenge in scaling a tech-focused business internationally?
Finding and retaining the right people who share the company's culture and growth goals is more critical than just securing new clients; organizational fit drives long-term success.
