Some people are just lucky and privileged enough to receive the opportunities that they are able to take advantage of, whether it be through education, social status, or just knowing the right people. But the truth is, you still have to work for it, or else that luck and privilege means nothing.

In this episode of the Noob School podcast, our host John Sterling talks to New South Construction Supply’s CEO, Jim Sobeck. Jim shares how he got his start with his father’s roofing company at 12, and how all that hard work paid off not just in financial terms, but also in knowledge and experience gained.

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Surviving two recessions and thriving during the pandemic
  • Luck plays a role, but you need to be ready
  • Working at 12 and learning the value of hard work
  • Regional manager for Owens Corning's six branches at 23
  • Partner at Building Marts of America at 25
  • Hire slowly, but fire quickly
  • Have a checklist for everything
  • Run a company like you're selling it tomorrow
  • Dealing with imposter syndrome and Jim's favorite podcasts
  • Be relentless

QUOTES

Jim on preparing for once-in-a-lifetime opportunities through hard work: "When opportunity knocks, you got to be there, and you got to answer the door."

Jim on money and why you need to use it wisely: "Money doesn't solve all problems. But money gives you options which [if] properly exercised, could lead to happiness."

Jim on running a company: "Run the company like you're going to sell it tomorrow. That way, if you do get to sell it, you can do it quickly because you have audited statements. We have all the board minutes, we have a real board of directors..."
