  • Beyond the Mine, Universal Truths for Owners

    I started listening to the Per Diem Podcast after seeing Keaton share it on LinkedIn and someone shared an episode with me. As someone outside the mining and earth-moving industry, I wasn't sure if the content would translate to my daily life. I was wrong. The show goes much deeper than its industry niche. It provides a raw look at the highs and lows of business ownership and project ownership—the wins that are hard to explain and the failures that are even harder to share. Great insight for any... more

  • Truth Sometime Hurts!

    Been an avid listener from the start, actually got some advice on some marketing ROI from season one. Keaton tells it how it is running a business. His stories and advice are truly what every owner and or upper management goes through daily, monthly and year over year. You have good days and bad days, good decisions and bad decision, or as he would say “ball kickings”. Love listening to him, even the rants because 99% of the time we have all thought or done the same rant. At times it’s nice... more

    Keaton,

    Hey, you’re putting out some great stuff. I enjoy listening to your podcast as it underscores all of the things we go through as owners and entrepreneurs. For the guys that take your words of experience and lessons learned to heart, you’re insight should be invaluable to them. I’ve forwarded on some of your episodes to some of our team to give them a different perspective from just hearing it from me all the time. We share a lot of the same perspective on business.

    Glad to seeing you ... more

  • Lessons that translate to results

    Keaton’s got this dialed in—and it shows. You can tell he puts a ton of effort and care into every episode. I’ve taken a lot from his experiences and applied it to my own professional life, and it’s genuinely helped me become a more valuable contributor to my company, opening the door to more opportunities and success.

    The biggest takeaway? Learn to understand the business the way the owners do—it changes everything.

    Always looking forward to the next episode.

  • Like he’s speaking directly to me

    I own and run a small plumbing and excavating company and it seems almost every episode is what we’re dealing with that day. Feels like he’s listening through my phone like Apple does lol. Highly recommend a listen! You’ll get hooked, just leave your feelings at the door.

Season 4, Ep. 7: Leadership is Brisket
Q: What's the best way for a young entrepreneur to grow as a leader and be respected by clients and employees?
The host suggests a dual approach: hire a veteran, proven leader to run key parts of the business and also actively participate in leadership development yourself through peer groups, executive programs, and hands-on learning, while aligning with company culture and core values.
