STRONG, FUN MARRIAGE

HEALTHY MIND, BODY & SPIRIT

FULL ENGAGEMENT WITH YOUR KIDS

You're growing a business that demands everything. At the same time - you're building a marriage, raising children and striving to deepen your faith and to strengthen your health. The men around you are in the same position. Nobody has a great answer.

The tension doesn't solve itself. It compounds. And the longer you wait to address it, the more expensive it gets.

"The most dangerous place for an ambitious entrepreneur is not failure. It's comfortable, distracted, unfocused progress - moving and busy, but not toward what matters most."

You're working longer and harder. But gaining less traction than you should.

Here's the truth: working longer and harder only helps up to a certain point. Then, it becomes counterproductive - reducing creativity, diminishing output, creating stress, straining your marriage and quietly threatening your health.

And yet, the most common response to this challenge is to put in more and more time. This usually comes with an unacceptable cost.

The optimal approach is to work shorter and smarter. But this requires a different mindset - and a proven system with someone in your corner who refuses to let you off the hook.

Ask yourself honestly: 

  • Are you creating the economic growth and freedom you're capable of?
  • What are you doing about the chronic clutter and low-value activity in your calendar? 
  • Do you have the desired margin to really enjoy the success you've already created?
  • Does your physical fitness support your goals and accurately reflect your ambitions across life?
  • How intentionally are you making your wife feel loved and appreciated on a day to day basis?
  • Are you as present and engaged with your kids as you intend to be? 
  • Who in your life has permission to ask you the tough questions?
WHY MOST ENTREPRENEURS GET & STAY  STUCK

The Four Forces of Regret.

Why do so many really intelligent, very nice and well-meaning Christian entrepreneurs end up so far away from their intended destination?

After 35 years and thousands of coaching sessions, we've identified four subtle patterns that quietly derail ambitious, entrepreneurial men - often without them realizing it. 

 

DISTRACTION

Diffused Energy

Your attention has fractured, and it's costing you more than you think. We show you how to protect what matters because everything else will try to steal it.  

 

DISPERSION

Depleted Energy

You're still doing too many things, and they're not moving the needle. We show you how to prune what doesn't fit your vision, even if it's good.

 

DRIFT

Diverted Energy

You didn't choose it. But you are drifting. Priorities slide. Weeks blur. That spark fades. We show you how to forcefully pivot and regain momentum.

 

DELAY

Dormant Energy

You already know the truth: tomorrow means never. Yet, "later" keeps showing up and quietly stealing your future. "Someday I'll fix this." "Someday, we'll get the spark back." Someday isn't a strategy. We propel you into action. You execute.

 

Every problem you’re facing right now can be traced back to one or more of these: distraction, dispersion, drift and delay.

These four forces don't operate in isolation either - they compound each other. And the longer you wait to address them, the deeper they take root. When you use our plan to defeat them, energy is restored, you feel lighter, and your future begins to change.

What if you had a proven system that kept you focused on your highest payback activities?

Since 1991, we've helped more than 1,000 entrepreneurs in over 30 industries resolve inner battles, work fewer hours, and produce greater income by leveraging systems, building their best teams, and eliminating the clutter and mental resistance that stalls growth.

The results our members consistently experience:

  • Substantial net worth gains
  • Fun, young-feeling marriage
  • Healthy mind, body & spirit
  • Greater margin for rejuvenation
  • Full engagement & influence with their kids
  • Confidence to set bigger goals
  • Freedom to enjoy life on their own terms
  • A legacy worthy of their God-given potential

If you’re the right fit, we can help you. too.

Joel

Joel places joining The 1% Club as one of his top life changing decisions, “up there” with accepting Christ and choosing his wife. 

 

Chuck  

Chuck credits The 1% Club with helping him rebuild a multi-million dollar business and finding better balance with his family.

 

Tom

Tom explains why he was initially hesitant about joining The 1% Club and how his 600% net worth increase is a nice "added bonus."

 

J.R.  

J.R. shares how The 1% Club provided the track that helped him stick with and achieve his long-term financial goals much sooner than he expected.

The 1% Club has been the single best investment I have ever made in my life. It brought me closer to God and my wife and has made me more successful financially while also keeping me super lean and healthy. My net worth has exploded and I’m also growing tremendously as a person outside of the business world as well.

RYAN C.

Three Decades. Thousands of Clients. One Mission.

I started coaching entrepreneurs in 1991. What I found - after more than 10,000 private coaching sessions across dozens of industries - is that the men who struggle most aren't the ones without talent or ambition. They're the ones navigating two of the hardest things simultaneously: building a business and building a family.

The most common approach to this challenge is to try harder and wing it. This usually comes with an unacceptable cost - to the marriage, to the kids, to the health, to the faith. I've sat across from too many men who discovered this too late.

I've been married to Kristin for over 30 years. We raised three children while I built this practice, wrote seven books, and coached thousands of men through the exact season you're in right now. I don't teach theory. I've lived the tension.

I believe the tension you're feeling is solvable - not manageable, solvable. And the entrepreneur who solves it - at whatever stage he's in - has an unfair advantage for the rest of his life. I'd like to help you solve it.

A Track Record That Speaks for Itself

The 1% Club is a focusing system refined through three decades of actual marketplace use with seasoned entrepreneurs in virtually every industry. But the real proof isn't the longevity of the system - it's the longevity of the relationships. Our clients stay for years, some for decades. The average client relationship spans 7+ years - because results compound and entrepreneurs who experience real transformation don't leave.

A Like-Minded Peer Community

Your peers in The 1% Club are ambitious, faith-driven entrepreneurs holding the same standards you do. As the group grows, so does the community - and this reference group becomes one of your most valuable assets.

Worldview & Beliefs

The 1% Club is anchored in Christian values and delivered from that perspective. A community of men who want to maximize their potential because they believe it honors their Creator.

Intensity of Delivery

Coach Tommy Newberry delivers with a blunt, no-nonsense style - like any good coach - pushing you to cut your excuses, take action and produce results. No political correctness. No hand-holding.

Support & Accountability

All members receive consistent support through Slack, texts, calls, and live sessions. We stick with you to ensure you follow through and get results that last - between workshops, week to week, and as you build the rest of your life.

Private Coaching Available

By Default:

PATH OF INERTIA

  • Your business is running - but not growing without a ton of time and effort from you
  • Your wife is a solid roommate, but the marriage isn't quite what you envisioned it would be at this point
  • Your kids are growing up during your busiest, most distracted years and that could become a problem...
  • You are earning plenty, but your spending is increasing steeply and you feel more stressed than free 
  • Your faith is important, but the spiritual disciplines too often get crowded out by what feels more urgent
  • You've gradually gotten a little sloppy and soft (dad bod) - far from the model of excellence you intended to be
  • You keep rationalizing that this is just a busy season...and it'll get better

By Design:

PATH OF TRANSFORMATION

  • Your business is structured, focused and growing...without you being in the middle of everything
  • Your marriage feels young and fun again and you're actually looking forward to your future together
  • Your kids see consistency and feel your presence and full engagement
  • You're working shorter and smarter - with the leverage and systems that compound
  • You are ahead of plan financially - confident about growing your wealth
  • Your faith is the cornerstone of your life and it's obvious to everyone who knows you
  • Inner turmoil and double-mindedness have been resolved
  • You are lean, strong and resilient - ready for whatever demands come your way
  • You're on track and building your best life faster than expected

THE COACHING PROCESS

A strategic system you master and make your own.

This repeatable, continuously refined process becomes your system - equipping you with the track to organize your life around so you stay focused on reaching your most important goals across every critical life area.
STEP 1:

CLARIFICATION

Where are you right now - honestly? Then, define what you intend to accomplish, why you must accomplish it, and exactly how you will accomplish it.
STEP 2:

SIMPLIFICATION

Identify low-value activity. Reduce the clutter, complexity and obligations that interfere with peak performance and quietly hijack your joy and fulfillment.
STEP 3:

MAXIMIZATION

Organize your work life around what you do best. Exploit your unique strengths with better systems and support to enhance your personal value in the marketplace.
STEP 4:

ACCELERATION

Leverage strategic relationships, habits and technology - along with proven methods of distraction control - to hit your goals faster than you would on your own.

STEP 5:

ACCOUNTABILITY

Utilize positive peer pressure to follow through, keep your commitments and outperform your previous best - month after month, not just at events.

“The first eighteen months with The 1% Club program have, quite simply, changed my life. I see the impact of the program in every area of my life. I feel that I am operating at the top of my game, and I couldn’t have done it without the program.”

Bert C.

"I think if not for Tommy’s coaching, if I was to continue down the road I was going, it probably would have taken about 10 years off my life. Not said by me. Said by my doctor. We’ve seen similar success in our business: at the time I started The 1% Club, we’d barely done one million dollars in revenue. And this year we expect to do more than nine."

Horace A.

“To state that Tommy saved my life would be an overstatement, but to state that Tommy dramatically and tangibly impacted my life, the lives of my kids, the strength of my marriage, and the values upon which I live, would be right on. I’ve been working with Tommy in The 1% Club for almost 15 years; he’s led leadership training for my company and his marriage retreats have impacted the quality of my marriage and those of our extended family for more than a decade. I consider him not only my coach and mentor, but also a dear friend.”

Mark S.

“Being a client of Tommy’s was perhaps the most important decision in my life next to getting married and having children. I became an entrepreneur, created financial success beyond my expectations, and completed the Boston Marathon. These are but a few of the accomplishments that were planned and produced in The 1% Club.”

Scott G.

“The 1% Club workshops have been one of the greatest and most potent/powerful discoveries of my adult life. The 1% Club can absolutely give you the tools, as it has given me, to make the intangible tangible and the mindset necessary to reach, and ultimately crush, your life goals. I can confidently say that the clarity discovered in The 1% Club regarding my goals over the last couple of years have had a profoundly positive impact on myself and my family. ”

Rocky M.

“Over the past three years with Tommy, I’ve been able to obtain financial independence and was able to grow my company from two employees to 125. I also completed the Canadian Iron Man this past year, was able to improve my marriage significantly, and I think also improve my qualities as a father. I don’t ever come back from a coaching meeting without having two or three real golden nuggets that I can apply to my life that makes me that much better.”
