2020 Tour Announcement
We are super excited to announce we are going on a North American tour to promote 100% DAD. We bought the truck and 5th wheel. We’re preparing our family by selling a ton of stuff because we used to have 4000 sq ft of extra storage AKA the business office and warehouse. Now we are […]
Why We Sold Our Businesses
I get this question a lot and the truth is there isn’t just one reason. It was several factors that all came together at what I felt was the perfect time. To put this into perspective, this was not our first offer. We have had regular offers since 2014. Some were good and some were […]
Learning and Improving Never Stops
Constantly seek improvement. We will enjoy life more and have a more fulfilling life if we are always a student. To say that I read is an understatement. I love to read nonfiction, especially biographies and business related material. Lately, I have been reading a ton of family and parenting books. However, I was never […]
You Are Your Own Responsibility

Coaching
I love seeing dads coach youth sports. I love coaching my kids, it’s a great way to spend time with them. You get to hang out with other kids and other dads with kids a similar age. I know a lot of dads who coach and some who don’t. I would encourage every dad to […]
