Inside BS Show

In this episode, Dave returns after a month-long hiatus and explains the strategic pivot he has made. Over the last 30 to 45 days, he has shifted his business to focus on helping advisors, attorneys, accountants, consultants, and other professionals attract and work with high net worth individuals, family offices, and affluent business owners.

Dave describes why this client segment is resilient during economic downturns and why professionals who want to deliver maximum value should aim to serve at the top of the market. To build a clear, repeatable model for attracting and developing these relationships, Dave has conducted more than 100 conversations and over 25 deep-dive interviews with professionals already working in that space.

Going forward, the Inside BS Show will feature short, frequent updates documenting the build-out of this new business. Dave will share what is working, what is not working, and the thinking behind each move. Listeners can follow the journey in real time across multiple platforms.

This episode is the starting point.

  • Dave is developing and testing a new advisory model built from interviews and practical experience.
  • The show will now deliver concise progress reports and lessons from the field.

If you're an entrepreneur, CEO of a private company, or leader of a professional firm, this show is your secret weapon.

On each show we break down the business growth strategies that insiders use to win—revenue generation, building influence, succession planning, hiring top talent, navigating legal minefields, and crafting an exit strategy that maximizes value.

But this isn’t just a podcast—it’s a community. We don’t just talk at you; we bring you into the conversation.

Hey now, it is November 3rd and we're back. I promised you we'd be back in a month and we are. We released a couple of shows while I was taking a month off from the podcast.

We released a couple of interviews that were completed prior to deciding to go on hiatus, but I'm glad to be back with you and I'm happy to share what's going on these days. So I announced that I was taking a month off from here and I did take almost a month off from social media, from doing things on social media. And the reason was because I started a new project.

That's right. I've got a brand new project that I'm working on now and it is research into high net worth individuals and how to become a trusted advisor to high net worth individuals, to high net worth families, to family offices, to the affluent. The reason that I'm focused on this is because whenever there is a downturn in the economy, that sector tends to be immune from the downturn in the economy or is more resistant to the downturn in the economy.

And for my purposes, I always want my clients to be able to work at the highest end of the market. I want my clients to make the most money with the least amount of effort. I want them to be able to deliver maximum value.

And in order to do that, you have to be able to build the team that you want and that requires significant capital and where better to get significant capital than through working with high net worth clients, with affluent individuals, with family offices and with family businesses that are being sold. So I started doing research into this and in the last month, in the last 30 days, about six weeks actually. So from the last two weeks of September, from about September 25th on, I made a decision to pivot the focus of our company to helping advisors, consultants, attorneys, accountants attract high net worth individuals, affluent business owners, families.

And I started having conversations and I've had over a hundred conversations in the last 30 days. I've done 25 plus in depth interviews that have taken an hour or longer with people who are working with high net worth individuals, family offices, clients, and I've developed a model for attracting these clients based on my personal experience and what I've heard from the folks that I've interviewed. And I'm really excited about the model.

I'm testing it now. So here's what you can expect from me here on the inside BS show and inside BS still stands for inside business strategy because we're taking you behind the scenes here showing you what we're doing to build this business. Here's what you can expect to me from me over the course of the next, say 30 days in November.

We're in November of 2025 right now. I'm going to do a few episodes each week, sometimes two, sometimes three. And on those episodes, I will share with you what I'm doing to build my business.

And I'll share with you what's working. I'll share with you. It's not working.

You can come along for the ride. Come along on the journey with me. If you want to see video of this, you can join me on Instagram.

I'm going to post the raw videos in Instagram format, that vertical format. I'm going to post them on my personal Instagram page, which I've reactivated. So those of you who are following me there, you can welcome me back.

My Instagram page is the Dave Lorenzo. So my name and the word T H E in front of it, the Dave Lorenzo. And these shows again, daily will be less than 10 minutes.

My goal is snippets of content to give you an update on what's going on. And if I make them short, I can do them more frequently. So I'm documenting the process of building this new business and you'll watch me.

So you're watching Thomas Edison invent the light bulb here is basically what you're doing. I'm also going to crystallize my thoughts when I prove something and it's working. I will share that with you on LinkedIn.
