2015 Chicago Marathon. Mile 13. I’m flying—feeling like I could run forever. Heart surgery, back surgery, barely able to stand a decade before, and here I am crushing it. Then I see the sign: NOT ALMOST THERE.
Everything changed. Heavy legs. Cramping. Mental breakdown. I barely finished what started as my best race ever.
That sign broke me, but it also built me. Southside Chicago kid who studied for 15 seconds between building cars on the assembly line. Graduated in 5 years. Built companies. Sold two. 800 employees. Young father at 20 who figured it out as I went.
I’ve spent 50+ episodes of Not Almost There interviewing experts, and now my cohost and I are diving deeper into the conversations that matter most. We dig into what it really takes—in business, branding, health, life. No fluff. Real talk about building something that matters while the clock’s ticking.
Whether you’re running your first mile or your hundredth company, we’re here to help you go the distance.
Because almost there isn’t good enough.

Build Email Flows that Unlock Value, Drive Sales & Create Relationships
The most undervalued resource of your business is probably your ability to contact customers directly so why would you spend money to drive people to your website or store if you can’t stay in touch with them? In this episode Joe explains why you shouldn’t spend money on ads until you build a system to earn customers’ contact information and then send emails (or text messages) that will:
- turn visitors into customers
- create long-lasting customer relationships
- uncover customer insight that will help improve your product or service
- reduce your advertising costs
- develop social proof to validate your business
Joe shares a behind-the-curtain look at the automated email flows that he developed for Go Brewing and Easy Man, but these practical tips can apply to any business even ones that are not in e-commerce.
