John Ply sold his company Insight Beverages at multiple 9 figures.

Because, when he started his company with 1 employee, he had only one goal in mind: ‘Be the best, instead of being the biggest’, which they achieved. Every client of theirs told them that. All leading chains in the country bought from them because they’re the best.

But his beginnings were low.

Watch FULL YOUTUBE INTERVIEW HERE

John’s parents could not afford private school— his three older brothers and sisters went to public school because it’s free. In fact, John saw tears in the eyes of his mother when she did not have 75 cents to pay for the newspaper. His dad was a butcher and worked two jobs to make ends meet.

Though his parents didn’t have the money, they gave them lots of love.

John graduated in Finance from Indiana University out of scholarship.

He started his career as inventory controller but grew up become the president of the company all within 1 year. And he was just shy of 24 at the time.

When he started his own company, he made sure the employees were paid well and treated well. After the initial struggles, the company grew in leaps and bounds: 1.8 million a year to 4 million a year to 15 million a year to 33 million a year in sales.

John wrote an amazing book ‘You Can Be the Best: Life Lessons from the Butcher and the Businessman.

The book gives the definition of success: it's not dollars, it’s far from it. His book is meant to help others achieve their dreams.

In this episode you will take away many promising insights (plus many more):

-What true entrepreneurship is

-How to treat employees as an owner

-Why being the best is better than being the biggest

-What good parenting is

-How doing good pays back

-Why and how you should always be growing as a human being

Inspirational quotes from the episode

-If you can't give up that comfortable job that has a lot of benefits and all the other stuff, you cannot start a company

-Employees will jump through hoops for you when you pay them well and you treat them equally

-You may never be the biggest but you can be the best

-Money doesn't buy happiness, it buys a lot of comfort; in many instances money can buy a lot pain and grief

-All that my dad ever talked about was: how blessed he was, how happy he was, how grateful he was, and how content he was

-To do good is the only reason we are here on earth and you can take those words into so many places of your life

-Do good for others, it'll come back not tenfold; it comes back many many more times than tenfold, I'm a walking proof of that

-You should always be looking for ways for growing as a human being
