What's up guys? Welcome to Made for Profit, a podcast where we talk business in the shop and help you monetize as a maker.

Each week we'll cover the topics most important to you from marketing and selling your products to winning on social media and everything in between.

I'm Brad Rodriguez, a full-time content creator running Fix This Build That.com, and my co-host, John Mulecki, runs a full-time furniture company and its content

site, John Malecki.com. Over the past few years, we've seen the value of bouncing ideas back and

forth. And we want to bring you into the conversation and help you grow along with us.

Welcome to episode 20. Today, we're going to talk about making the most out of your efforts.

As a business owner and a side hustler, you want to make sure what you're focusing on is most important to your business.

And John and I are big believers in what they call the 80-20 rule.

It's a method to show you what's truly driving your business and it's going to help

you focus on the vital few activities, clients, or products that make you the most money. So

we're going to be talking about that today and how John and I use it in our businesses. What is up,

John? Not much, dude. Absolutely love this topic. It really does put a ton of responsibility on the business owner,

so I'm stoked to be able to dig a little deeper and do some self-evaluation and give the people

some of our own personal experiences when it comes to use in the 80-20.

Yeah, dude. And it's based in statistics, so you know I love that.

Love it. Before we get started, we do want to thank our new members over there on the MFP

tribe, our new patron members.

They joined over at patreon.com forward slash made for profit.

And we had Modernist Maker and Brian Burrill.

Thank you guys for joining.

They're going to be able to enjoy some awesome rewards as well as our after show. If you'd like to check that out, you can go do that as well.

So what you've been doing this week, John? You know me, just punching another week in the face. I'm excited. Always punching faces. It's what I do, dude. It's what I do.
