Torsion Talk - The Garage Door Industry Podcast Torsion Talk S8 Ep113: What's Your Number? Knowing When Enough Is Enough in Business and Life
Garage door pros, home service leaders, and vision-driven entrepreneurs, this episode is your wake-up call.
After a summer of setbacks, including illness, surgery, and family trials, Ryan returns to the mic with a deeply personal, emotionally charged message that will challenge your perspective on business, money, and purpose.
This isn't your typical "grow at all costs" advice. Instead, Ryan shares his personal struggles and revelations about defining success, setting targets, and finally answering the question: "How much is enough?"
From AI integrations and automation breakthroughs at Markinuity, to behind-the-scenes moments with his son at the Braves game and Garage Door U's national TV debut on Duck Dynasty, Ryan recaps the highs and lows of the past few weeks. But the heart of this episode is a transformative encounter with a speaker at his church who works to rescue children from human trafficking around the world.
The story leads Ryan to a powerful decision: stop waiting to make a difference. It's not about someday. It's about now.
In this brutally honest episode, Ryan covers:
- How AI is transforming garage door businesses from the inside out
- The cost of waiting to act vs. taking imperfect action today
- Why every business owner should know their "enough" number
- Financial clarity as a tool for impact, not just growth
- What it's like to get national exposure for GDU and what that means for the community
- Real-world advice on work-life balance, stewardship, and building a business that aligns with your personal values
Whether you’re grinding toward your first million or have already scaled your team, this episode will challenge you to define what success truly looks like—not just for your business, but for your legacy.
Also in this episode: a challenge to set your financial targets, align your business with your values, and act on the things that truly matter.
