From 9–5 to $135K/Month: Sales, Failure & Faith with Brady Ulmer

Brady Ulmer spent years trying to figure out how to make money outside of a traditional 9–5. At one point, he was taking home roughly $2,200 a month. Years later, he and his wife built a recurring-revenue business that reached $135,000 in a single month. Then much of what they built disappeared. In Episode 2 of What Are You Building?, Brady shares what happened on both sides of that story — the success, the mistakes, the business relationships that went wrong, and the lessons that changed how he looks at money and entrepreneurship. We also break down what Brady is building today with Savanna House: a marketing agency with a growing sales partner program designed to give people an entry point into sales and recurring commissions. We talk about: • Why entrepreneurship usually takes longer than people expect • Going from a 9–5 to a $135K month • Why Brady became committed to recurring revenue • Building and training a sales organization • Cold calling, rejection, scripts, and getting your reps in • Why he believes failure can redirect you • Losing much of a multi-seven-figure business • Choosing the right business partners • What success taught him about money • Building a business around faith • Learning to trust God when the success disappears Brady’s story is a reminder that building something isn’t just about how high you can take it. It’s also about who you become when things don’t go according to plan. What Are You Building? is a podcast about business, mindset, and faith — and the people building something worth talking about.
