Ep. #48: Ben Jordan – From 400 LBS to an $85 Million Plumbing Empire

What happens when a two-man plumbing operation evolves into an $85 million multi-state trade empire? In this episode, I sit down with Ben Jordan, one of the owners behind Action Plumbing, to dissect the exact moments that took his business from a localized contractor shop to a corporate heavyweight. We pull back the layers on Ben’s absolute masterpiece of personal transformation: shedding an astonishing 204 pounds while shifting his corporate focus toward radical self-development.We map out his journey through the trades, covering his early days running calls out of a beat-up Camry to buying out his partner, rebranding to own the sewer niche, and engineering an unbelievable shift from $4 million to $17 million in revenue within just 10 months. I also reveal exactly how I use real estate tax shields—like cost segregation and real estate professional status (REPS)—to eliminate our active tax burdens and re-inject millions of liquid dollars right back into our businesses.The Camry Grind to Buyout: How Ben saved a failing plumbing operation and successfully navigated a partner shake-up.The Rebranding Playbook: Why Ben specialized strictly as "Utah's Number One Sewer Company" to dominate the regional market.Aggressive Tax Shields: A detailed look at how accelerated depreciation and cost segregation allow active business owners to erase massive tax obligations.The 200-Pound Blueprint: The radical link between leading yourself physically and commanding authority over a multi-million dollar corporate operation.The "I Am Third" Philosophy: A masterclass in putting your relationship with God first, family values second, and personal ego third to unlock true power.True wealth isn't just about the scale of your business—it's about setting uncompromised standards across your fitness, family, and financial structures.
