520: From His Mom's Floor to $7M in Year One | Rosaki Hilt17 Mar 202600:43:04

Rosaki Hilt lost his AI company, his apartment, his car, and had to move his wife and kids onto his mom's floor. He grew up in foster care and had avoided door-to-door sales for 10 years because he thought it was the lowest rung on the ladder.

Then he found a job on Indeed. He almost didn't show up. William Turner bought him a plane ticket. Rosaki missed the flight. Turner bought him a second ticket anyway. Rosaki told him if he did, he'd become his number one guy.

One year later, he was CEO of Turner Abrams Fiber with $7 million in revenue and 60 reps.

In this episode, Sam sits down with Rosaki to break down:

  • The moment he knew he had to lower his ego and get a job
  • Why the owner took a chance on him after he no-showed
  • How he went from rep to CEO in one year
  • The "walk in straight lines" mentality that kept him locked in
  • Why he still sleeps on the floor sometimes to stay grounded
  • The Dragon Ball Z analogy about compressing your restart time
  • Building D2D Dashboard to solve the pay transparency problem
  • Balancing 6 kids, two businesses, and high school leadership workshops

First year. First summer. Golden Door.


In this Golden Door Podcast episode, Hunter sits down with first-time Golden Door winner Dallin Peterson to break down exactly how he went from brand-new pest control rep to elite producer in a single season.


Dallin shares:


How he went from slow first month to pacing for a Golden Door


The mantra that kept him locked in: “I only judge myself based off inputs”


His non-negotiable habits (no late starts, no early nights, no long breaks)


The morning and night routines that kept him mentally sharp all year


How he handled slumps, doubt, and the temptation to lower the goal


If you’re a rep or manager coming into 2026 saying, “This is my Golden Door year,” this episode gives you a simple, repeatable blueprint: work the inputs, protect your routine, and stop giving yourself an out.

510: $2.7M in Roofing Through Referrals | Golden Door Series with Andrea Olson13 Jan 202600:28:28

In this Golden Door Winners episode, Hunter Lee sits down with Andrea Olson, a residential roofing sales rep from North Georgia who crossed the $2.5M Golden Door mark and finished the year near $2.7M in installed revenue. 

Andrea’s path looks different from most. After several years knocking doors and building trust, every deal during her Golden Door year came from referrals.

This conversation speaks directly to new reps and struggling reps who want proof sales growth does not rely on tricks or hype. Andrea shares stories from the field, lessons learned under pressure, and the habits required to earn trust at scale. The episode highlights discipline, consistency, and personal standards.

You will hear how Andrea balances family life, high volume communication, and constant follow up while keeping customers engaged long after install day. She explains why long term thinking matters more than short term wins and why relationships outlast any single season. Anyone building a career in door to door sales will hear why trust, urgency, and personal accountability separate average reps from Golden Door performers.

You’ll find answers to key questions such as:
- What separates referral based producers from door knock grinders
- Why emotional control matters after rejection or denied claims
- How strong standards shape long term sales careers
- What Golden Door winners prioritize outside pure revenue
- Why reputation drives volume in roofing sales

509: Before You Buy the Rolex… Do THIS with Your Commission Checks | Ryan Pineda09 Jan 202600:44:23

What should you really do with that extra 50–100K you made in commissions this year? Buy the Rolex… or buy the asset that bails you out when the market turns?

In this episode, Sam sits down with entrepreneur, real estate investor, and former pro baseball player Ryan Pineda to break down how door-to-door reps should think about money, time, and new business ideas.

They get into:

⏱ Why your best use of time (even as an owner) is still selling

Ryan explains why he was already making millions but still going on appointments himself—because one $40K deal was worth more than any “busy work,” and often funded entire salaries or the next key hire.

💸 Before you buy the Rolex… do THIS with your commission checks 

Instead of flexing on cars and watches, Ryan walks through how he used flips, rentals, and other assets as “piggy banks” that saved him when business got tough.

You’ll hear how he thinks about: 

  • Flipping vs wholesaling vs rentals
  • Why “passive income” from rentals is mostly a myth right now
  • How to treat rentals as long-term vaults, not short-term paychecks

⛳ How to test a new offer in 24 hours (Golf With Ryan playbook)

 Ryan unpacks how a random idea—“people will probably pay to golf with me”—turned into: 

  • One IG story
  • 20 buyers at $2,500
  • Multi-day golf masterminds
  • And eventually a multi-million dollar brand

All before he had a name, logo, or “perfect branding.” Just proof of demand.
