It’s hard to keep up with all the change underway in our industry.  Automation and robotic technology are about to upend everything we thought we knew.  To prove my point consider Michael Morozov and his company Aurum Window Washing.  Michael is experimenting with drone technology.  His plan is to use drones to clean the windows on high-rise buildings.  It’s a bold plan and one that is likely to save money and save lives.

I know what you’re thinking.  Today’s title makes it sound like I’m going to be talking smack about the insurance industry.  Well, let me assure you.  I am.  Well, not exactly. 

You see when I was talking with Michael Morozov recently.  Michael owns Aurum Window Washing .  We started talking about using insurance companies in creative ways.  He revealed he insures all his bad debt with a French insurance giant.  He let’s them worry about any clients that have flaked on their invoices.  Its such a better use of his time.  Instead of chasing people around to pay their bills he lets one of the biggest insurance companies in the world take care of it.  And when people hear that a huge multinational owns their debt – they’re going to be much more likely to pay.

I love making the system work for my business!  I think you’ll get a lot out of this episode!

I had to learn this one the hard way.  Working with your partner can be extremely difficult.  To put it bluntly, it’s hard to be intimate with someone you’ve been arguing with all day.  That’s not to say it’s impossible.  My guest this week Michael Morozov from Aurum Window Cleaning disagrees with my assessment.  The two argue about what “work-life balance” really means.  It’s not always so cut and dry!

I love young entrepreneurs.  They inspire me.  I started my business when I was young.  But I made a ton of mistakes along the way.  It took my a long time to become a success.  That’s why I’m so impressed when I meet a young person who is already a success.  That’s why I wanted to invite Michael Morozov onto the show this week.  Michael founded his company when he was still in University.  By his second year he was making over six figures.  Now his business Aurum Property Care is one of the largest window cleaning companies in North America.

In this episode Michael and I talk about how he managed that explosive growth.  He reveals why he had to design his own software system to manage all the moving parts of his buisness.  That investment cost nearly $500 thousand.  Eventually his company outgrew that system.  So he decided to move to Salesforce instead.   That decision wasn’t easy.  And it wasn’t cheap.  So was switching to Salesforce worth the expense?  Find out more!
