587. How To Problem Solve Your Business Challenges With Jim Carter And RT Custer

Today, I'm joined by entrepreneurs and the powerhouse duo behind Carter & Custer, Jim Carter and RT Custer. Jim and RT share how they overcame some of their biggest business challenges and what they have planned for the next iteration of Fast Foundations Mastermind.

RT explains how his watch company Vortic came out on top of a 6-year lawsuit against industry giant Hamilton. His passion and belief for upcycled watches kept him fighting when everyone around him, including his first attorney, advised him to give up and file for bankruptcy. Today, his case is an example of first use doctrine and the freedom to turn one man's trash into another man's treasure.

Jim has always been a behind-the-scenes tech guy, but felt driven to use his expertise and transform the non-profit space. Jim shares the story of how he bridged the gap between blockchain and charity, and eventually raised $1 million for Pencils of Promise by facilitating a donation from an anonymous philanthropist who wanted to spend his Bitcoin wealth.

Not only are Jim and RT co-founders of their agency, but they've teamed up to buy Fast Foundations from me and are making it bigger and better than ever. Listen in to hear more about their vision for the mastermind and take advantage of an amazing free opportunity they're offering.

IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT:

How RT fought and won a major trademark infringement and counterfeiting lawsuit
Turning to organic marketing instead of relying on mainstream advertising and media
How Jim helped nonprofits raise over $10 million in a matter of weeks by using blockchain technology
The story of how Jim and RT teamed up to co-found Carter & Cluster
The power of being together in a group mastermind setting
What inspired Jim and RT to buy Fast Foundations
The unique perspective that Jim and RT bring to masterminds
