On this episode of Man Versus Brand, we speak with Brandon Barnum. Brandon is the CEO of HOA.com. HOA, or the Home Owner Alliance, is a referral network for home service professionals. Brandon is also the author of “Raving Referrals,” a step-by-step guide to attracting profitable prospects and engaging those prospects into being super advocates for you and your business. The episode focuses on how showing appreciation in your relationships can better your life and your business:chronicling your legacy. Mentored by Mark Victor Hansen, author, and co-founder of “Chicken Soup For The Soul,” Brandon has learned much about pouring into people and receiving fantastic results from that work. We talk about building solid, healthy relationships of value where others will want to send you referrals, resources, and genuine support. This system isn’t only applicable in sales but in every aspect of our lives. How much bigger could your life be if you grew your network into one that genuinely wanted to see you succeed and wanted to be active in that growth? If building mutually beneficial relationships of worth is something you would like to explore, delve deeper into, or scale, this will be the episode for you. Your legacy will be counted by the lives you have touched.

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life.
