Want Better Results? Start With Weekly Training

Sup,
Training doesn't have to be a drag—it’s actually one of the easiest ways to level up your team. But it’s gotta be consistent and tailored in order to win.
In this weeks podcast, Jack and I spoke about building training programs that stick, how often to hold sessions, and why 1-on-1 coaching can set your team up for success. Trust me, once you get the rhythm down, results follow.
Before we start…
You can’t do training without some solid leads first, and Modernize is where it’s at. We’re using them for water quality leads, and it’s been smooth sailing from day 1. Onboarding was quick (just two weeks) and now every lead goes straight into our call center.
Plus, they do weekly check-ins to make sure we’re always improving. Last month? We pulled a 576% ROI. If you’re serious about boosting your leads, definitely check them out.
Transform Your Training
Here’s a quick rundown of what to focus on to get the most out of your training time:
Why Training Fails: Let’s face it. People push back on training. The trick is shifting their mindset. Frame training as a way to hit goals faster, earn more, and get rewards.
Training Frequency is Key: Consistency wins. Weekly or biweekly sessions create rhythm and accountability. Bonus: it builds momentum and a stronger culture.
1-on-1 Training: Personalized coaching sessions are where the magic happens. Tailor feedback to individual needs and watch performance pick back up.
Building a Program: Start small. Focus on the basics like numbers and tour teams attitude to work. From there you need to scale up with a structured plan on repeat. It’s about progress, not perfection.

People who say “money doesn’t buy happiness” clearly have never tried delegating all the annoying parts of their job.
