Why I Came Out of Retirement
J. Richard Byrd
Turning visions into unstoppable empires. No fluff, just results. Built on trust, driven by integrity, and designed to dominate.
About 8 years ago after numerous years in business, I found myself burned out and in need of rest.?
Retirement (Semi) seemed like the right choice at the time. However, my encounter with Kasey Brown at the Traffic Sales and Profit Conference reignited a new level of energy within me.
Kasey has challenged me to get back FULLY in the game and embrace the opportunities that lie ahead.
I also realized that many of the seeds I planted years ago are just starting to bear fruit, and it's time to harvest them. I have set a new revenue goal that will stretch me beyond my comfort zone, fueling my drive to achieve even more.
A significant part of my return is the desire to die empty, to share the wealth of "insider" knowledge I’ve accumulated about business, entertainment, and legacy business building. This knowledge is too valuable to my community.?
Moreover, the advancements in AI have allowed me to now create at the speed of thought, which intrigues and excites me.
I've built numerous high-networth companies and brands for high-profile individuals, and now I want to focus on building my personal brand on my own terms.?
My goal is to impact as many lives as possible, using my experience and insights to guide others to success.
In essence, I came out of retirement because there is still much work to be done.?
The combination of new energy, the fruition of past efforts, and the limitless possibilities presented by AI have compelled me to return.?
I'm here to lead, innovate, and create a lasting legacy. ?
