Welcome to the NEW After the Checks are Signed Podcast! Where entrepreneurs and other high performers talk about their success strategies after they sign the checks, close the books and lock the doors on their own businesses!
Here we discuss the money, investing and business stories and practices of accomplished local entrepreneurs and business people. During each episode we discuss topics such as personal finance, investing, economics, entrepreneurship, real estate and personal development.
Today Ken Spacht from Wolf Rock Companies to the podcast. His company offers many services from property maintenance and construction in New Hampshire to federally contracted fire fighting based in Montana. We learn so much about how to win these contracts and the total addressable market of contracted firefighting around the country. It is complicated business but what a treat to learn about it from someone who has navigated the process!
Starting out in property maintenance and plowing, Wolf Rock Construction had humble beginnings but has grown steadily over the previous two decades. Ken can offer new construction to renovations and everything in between. I have personally hired him for a number of projects which have all turned out excellent!
We learn about lumber futures and how the COVID 19 pandemic impacted his businesses. Like many entrepreneurs Ken was forced to change with the times, and the markets, or risk not surviving. Listen in to learn about his strategies for success in all the various business ventures.
We get to know Ken personally as he shared his favorite book which, Mudslingers by Tim Sheehy, and how it captivated his interest and brought new meaning and excitement to his wildfire ambitions. He even got the opportunity to meet the author recently!

Fascinating interview: how Ken started his different businesses — what he discovered and what he continues to learn. I liked the way he summarized his business philosophy: Stay humble and keep your word.
