ABOUT THIS EPISODE
What does it look like to actually practice what you preach as an entrepreneur?
In this episode of Two Guys on Stuff, Tom Tobin interviews Michael Edwards about the real-world launch of JobblyGo™ and how the same planning, discipline, and operational rigor we teach are being applied in real time.
This is not theory. It’s execution.
Michael walks through how a simple business plan turns into targets, budgets, cadence, and a Q1 sprint, all while launching a new venture and preparing for 2026. Along the way, Tom and Michael break down what founders get wrong, where momentum is won or lost, and why stewardship, clarity, and consistency matter more than hype.
