    From Sci-Fi to ROI: Taming the AI Revolution
    Jul 31 2025
    In this episode of the Get Shit Done Experience, host John Morris and GSD Technologies' Director of IT, Jason Hoffman, are joined by Darryl Jenkins, the Executive Vice President and a founding partner of Spectrum Robotics. This conversation demystifies the world of AI and robotics, transforming it from a scary, futuristic concept into a practical and powerful tool for modern business. Darryl shares his inspiring journey from the south side of Chicago—shaped by a strong community and early exposure to technology—to leading a cutting-edge automation company. The discussion explores how to overcome the fear of change, the critical difference between a transactional vendor and a true partner, and why the most important question to ask before adopting new tech is simply, "How bad does it hurt?" This episode is a masterclass on ethical leadership, the power of authenticity, and how embracing automation can actually elevate your human workforce.KEY TAKEAWAYSOvercome the Fear of the Unknown: All progress lies on the other side of fear. Don't let a lack of understanding about technologies like AI stifle your business's growth and potential.AI Augments, It Doesn't Just Replace: If you fear a robot will take your job, the challenge is to do a better job. AI is designed to handle repetitive tasks, freeing up your team to be more creative, strategic, and customer-focused.First, Find the Pain Point: Before jumping on a technology buzzword, identify the core problem. A "dental pain" that requires immediate resolution needs a different approach than a tolerable "ankle pain." Solving the right problem is key.Partnership is a Business Superpower: In a rapidly evolving field like AI, a transactional relationship isn't enough. You need a deep partnership with a brand whose values and moral compass you trust. You're not just buying a tool; you're integrating a part of their family into yours.Community Creates Opportunity: Your environment shapes you. Darryl’s story highlights how early mentorship from neighbors in his community opened the doors to a career in technology, proving that a strong local network is invaluable.True Leaders Illuminate Others: A leader's job isn't to be the only bright bulb in the room but to create a grid where each person's light illuminates the next. Empower your team to shine and have the confidence to speak last.Technology is a Tool, Not the Enemy: The technology itself isn't the problem; it's the intent of the people wielding it. Vet your technology partners thoroughly to ensure their ethical framework aligns with yours.Bring Your Authentic Self: Success and fulfillment happen at the convergence of your different facets—your faith, your business acumen, and your lived experience. Don't be afraid to bring your whole self to the table.QUOTES"Everything good's on the other side of fear.""If you're afraid of AI because you think it's gonna take your job, do a better job.""There is a distinct difference between an ankle pain and a dental pain... it's a question of how bad does it hurt?""You have to know what tool to use in the bag... every tool does not work for each situation.""The technology is not the problem. AI is not the enemy... It's what's on the TV that can be the problem.""It's relational, not transactional.""Doing what's right is never easy, but it's rewarding.""Don't let the fear of the unknown stifle you get stuff done."If you enjoyed today’s episode, please subscribe, review, and share with a friend who would benefit from the message.Unlock your business's potential with TTSG!

  • What the Truck?! The Wild World of Commercial Relocation

    What the Truck?! The Wild World of Commercial Relocation
    Jul 24 2025
    In this episode of the Get Shit Done Experience, host John Morris and co-host Lauren Klaus are joined by Tyler Hock, a relocation specialist and problem-solving mastermind from the Beltman Relocation Group. This conversation dives deep into an industry we often overlook until we desperately need it, revealing that moving a business is far more complex than just packing boxes. Tyler shares his unique journey from aspiring war reporter to a top-tier sales professional in the logistics space. The discussion covers the critical importance of a consultative sales process, the pitfalls of choosing the cheapest option, and how a 100-year-old company stays on top by embodying a "Be the Customer" philosophy. This episode is a masterclass in the value of expertise, the power of a strong company culture, and how technology can provide the peace of mind needed to truly get shit done.KEY TAKEAWAYSCulture is Strategy: A company that's been in business for over 100 years, like Beltman, thrives on a deeply ingrained, top-down culture. Their philosophy, "Be the Customer," ensures every decision is made with the client's best interest at heart.The Cheapest Option is Rarely the Best Value: Choosing a vendor based on the lowest price often leads to costly mistakes, operational downtime, and unforeseen problems (sometimes literally). True value lies in expertise, proactive problem-solving, and peace of mind.Consultative Sales Wins: A great salesperson acts as a "diagnosis tool," asking the right questions to uncover needs the client may not even be aware of. They know something you don't, and their questions are designed to lead you to a better outcome.Specialize in Your Uniqueness: While your business challenge feels unique to you, an experienced partner has likely seen and solved a similar problem dozens of times. Lean on their specialized expertise.Your Job is to Run Your Business, Not Manage a Move: Delegate complex, high-stakes projects like relocation to specialists. This frees you and your team to focus on your core mission and vision without getting bogged down in logistics.Technology Drives Transparency: Modern solutions, like Beltman's proprietary "Total Track" software, provide clients with real-time visibility and accountability, eliminating the need to "babysit your babysitter."Handle "No" with Grace: How you handle rejection in sales is just as important as how you handle a yes. Maintaining a relationship with grace can lead to future opportunities and referrals.Ask for Help: Don't be too proud to think you have to handle every challenge alone. Whether in business or your personal life, reaching out to your community and asking for help is a sign of strength.QUOTES"You don't stay in business for a hundred years for no reason.""There's that philosophy that we would rather not do it than do it badly.""If you're working with a sales consultant for anything and they're asking you questions, it's because they know something that you don't.""Your job is to be the CEO, not to specialize in moving. That's why you have us... let's utilize the resources around us."(On the result of hiring the cheapest mover) "When you go for the lowest price, that's the shit you get. Literally. Literally.""It's not how well you handle the yeses, it's how well can you handle the nos.""You don't know what you don't know.""Be willing to ask for help. Don't be so proud that you think you have to climb the mountain alone."If you enjoyed today’s episode, please subscribe, review, and share with a friend who would benefit from the message.Unlock your business's potential with TTSG!

  • Building Hope, One Brick at a Time: The Adam Petraglia Story

    Building Hope, One Brick at a Time: The Adam Petraglia Story
    Jul 3 2025
    In this deeply moving episode of the Get Shit Done Experience, host John Morris sits down with Adam Petraglia, a man whose life journey is a testament to resilience, purpose, and the power of perspective. Adam shares his harrowing and inspiring story of being diagnosed with leukemia on his 11th birthday, enduring a six-month hospital stay that included a five-week-long coma, and ultimately surviving against the odds. This profound experience became the foundation for his life's mission. Adam is the founder of Bricks of Hope, a nonprofit that donates new LEGO sets to children in hospitals, restoring a sense of control, joy, and normalcy in a frightening and choiceless environment. This conversation is a powerful exploration of turning life's greatest challenges into a calling to serve others. It’s a must-listen for anyone seeking inspiration and a reminder that our deepest adversities can pave the way for our greatest impact.KEY TAKEAWAYSAdversity Shapes Purpose: Adam's life-threatening battle with cancer at a young age wasn't just something that happened to him; it was something that happened for him, ultimately giving him a profound sense of purpose and a "second chance" at life.The Power of Perspective: A difficult diagnosis can be viewed as a "gift" that provides a unique and powerful perspective on life, valuing every moment and focusing on what truly matters.The Therapeutic Power of Play: For a child in a hospital, making choices is rare. A simple LEGO set provides a healthy distraction, a creative outlet, and restores a crucial sense of control and imagination, which is vital for mental well-being and coping during treatment.Family as a Foundation: A strong, hardworking, and supportive family system is critical in overcoming unimaginable challenges. These foundational values create the resilience needed to "run through a brick wall" together.Simplicity in Mission: The most effective missions are often the simplest. Bricks of Hope’s success lies in its clear, straightforward goal: to give a LEGO set to a sick kid to make them smile. This simplicity makes it easy for others to join and support.Significance Over Success: True fulfillment comes from creating significance, not just achieving success. Using one's personal story and skills to enrich the lives of others is a powerful way to give back.Ask for Help: Starting a movement or a nonprofit begins with the simple, yet powerful, act of sharing your story and asking for help. It’s a sign of strength, not weakness.Always Give More: Living by the principle of "always giving more" in any capacity can be the catalyst for changing someone else's life for the better.QUOTES"Hearing the words, 'Adam, you have cancer,' was my gift on my 11th birthday.""Living and surviving was the option... there is no other option.""I think I survived for a reason... we now have a greater purpose to do something.""The mission is simple. It's not supposed to be hard... People donate Legos, we take 'em to kids. We get their reaction. We skip out of there with joy and then we go do it again.""It was restoring a sense of control in an often very choiceless environment when you're in a hospital."(On a child's reaction to receiving a LEGO set) "He eventually said, 'This is the best day of my life.'""Treatment isn't seasonal, so we can't be either.""Always give more... Oftentimes [that] is the difference in changing the life of somebody else."If you enjoyed today’s episode, please subscribe, review, and share with a friend who would benefit from the message.Unlock your business's potential with TTSG!
