Some Dave Ramsey for Heffys BBQ Co.

Monday, November 8th, 2010

Back in April, Jason Drumright and his wife Mindy, two Heffys partners finished Dave Ramsey’s Financial Peace classes.  It was a life changer for them.


I was a little shocked honestly, not that these two were that far off track at all, but what they learned and changed made it possible for some noticeable & sweet impact on their financial standing.  So I joined them.


My brother and I decided to take the class together, we started 5 weeks ago and are having fun wrestling with a budget, spending habits, attacking debt among other things.  It’s been fantastic to take a harder look at my finances, I thought I had a really good handle on them but it’s been a great challenge to do more.


Dave’s teaches about freeing up money so that you can give freely, what a great simple message and it’s very biblical.  We are all about that at Heffys.  So Jason and I decided to attend the simulcast of EntreLeadership last week, with more than 15,000 attendees across the US it was a great way to see Dave’s advice on how to run a more financially responsible business.  I have to say it was just what I needed.


We don’t aim to be the largest BBQ sauce business in the world, just one of the best.  We want to be known just as much for our philanthropy as we are for making great sauce.  To do that we have to make great financial decisions, just like we do at home.  We don’t always do it right but we have to keep working for it.


Thanks to Jason and Mindy for leading the way…and for Dave for giving some tools for us to follow.
