You first need to understand your business.

@@TiminNicaragua that sounds awesome. I’m sure you were a natural. I’m probably no where near to the level you have achieved in your 35 years but if you have any tips please share. Have a great night and thanks for the comment!

I watched them as well, there an educational documentary on expat failure.

@ It doesn’t seem like they are failing at all. They clearly have work and are employing themselves and others. My comment was focused on the systems for communication. Seems like a great opportunity to enhance their abilities and lower the chances of mistakes happening. Avoidable mistakes come at a financial cost, and they’ve made it clear they want to avoid those kind of mistakes.

​@@Elefty415 I see your point, but to effectively lead a team - or train a team leader, you need a solid foundation of knowledge. Tony’s systems/methods change with each video, making it impossible to establish any team. Without a clear system, how can anyone else be properly trained? There’s a reason homes aren’t built using spot-welded sheetrock studs and plastic-coated pressboard, Those materials aren’t suitable for a durable, long-lasting home. We’re already seeing the Paradise Radpad outdoor work falling apart after a few months, and needed to be redone correctly. Tony tends to celebrate his own mistakes, which isn’t the best example for others to follow. Building something solid takes more than improvisation. It requires detailed architectural plans, input from mechanical engineers, and well-thought-out interior and exterior designs. That being said, I do like Tony, and I think the mini dumpster he built is a work of art. I believe he has a lot of potential and could do well creating merchandise using the materials and ideas he already has on hand. I hope he proves me wrong and will be the first to admit it.

@@Elefty415 thanks for watching the videos! I don’t know what you’re talking about? I speak perfect Spanish just not on camera 😂 great suggestion thank you!

@@schoolnyc jajaja good one Ed and your totally right! The amount of times I’ve failed is quite extraordinary! 1,197 is how many 3pointers Michael Jordan missed, Walt Disney was rejected by 300 or 301 banks before someone was willing to fund his dream of building Disneyland. I’ve got a lot more mistakes to make 😂 have a rad night nyc and thanks for watching! Wait till you see how we messed up almost 400 plastic boards when today’s video comes out! 😂

Thanks for comment, so sorry we get confused 😂 keep watching !

​@@radpadradpadwe all get confused..

@@josephdennehey4126 thank you Joseph! I hope today was the best day of your year so far!!

@@schoolnyc love snap on! Haven’t seen them in years… not yet seen in Central America? 💯 agreed 👍

@@radpadradpad It is a franchise, they sell out of there truck, and have a territory. They will custom make a tool for you if needed.

@@Grudr-w9w I learned a lot from victor. I’m using a different engineer to submit my permit for the river project because he was a lot less expensive, but I’ve hired him to do the step by step how too drawings for rad pad. After doing this interview with him and several hundred texts I feel we will have a long lasting professional relationship. He will be handling two buildings in guanacaste from start to finish and I’ll share the whole process! Have a great night 😎

@@radpadradpad that sounds awesome, brother. I'll be tuning in.

@@schoolnyc yea the truth is I haven’t checked to see if he has actually paid me back yet😂

@@schoolnyc thanks Ed I hope you have a fantastic December! Thanks for the kind words

@@schoolnyc chemical treatment wasn’t an option so we were provided “special wood” for costarica that would last for years… I’m 100% done with wood for now :) includes bamboo 😂 thanks for the support have a rad day 😎

@@Blacksingh yea it’s all the same. A rad pad has virtually nothing that alters the experience from inside to outside other than shade, drainage air flow and bug free. The purpose of rad pad is to offer a chance to make a radical change of life style and to offer a landing and launching pad to send you deep into a new dimension 😎. If you get a chance to sleep in one you will hear the monkey move from the north to the south and the birds and bugs chime in throughout the night. If you get to stay for a week you will start to notice the repetition and start to predict where and when sounds will come of when the winds will change. After a month you are healed and restored to the rhythm and cycle of the nature. I’ve been asked to put a tv in a rad pad before, also blinds on the windows, even asked to insulate it for sound and temperature control, I’m an advocate of radical simplicity and with that comes radical simplicity. I am 100% sure that rad pads are not for everyone at this time but my hope is at some time they will be 😎 thanks for following along I hope it never gets boring 😉😎💥

@@Grudr-w9w nice 👍 thank you

@@oscarmoreno9539 leave? I was just there last week :) I ran the same fb ad as I was running in Nica down in Costa and I received about 20 i queries. Then people from my first channel “@everythingnicaragua” started inviting me to check out Costa Rica. I started theat Chanel when I first arrived in Nica just before covid started. I was so inspired by the nicas I met. They were the real deal entrepreneurs and were so damn resourceful I started interviewing them and sharing on f groups. Then tons of Nicas started asking me to do infomercials for them. So I did like 400 Nica businesses. Almost everyone kept telling me to go do rad pads in Costa Rica. I tried hard for two plus years in Nica but they just didn’t seem to take off? The price was always the topic of conversation in Nica where in cr it’s always about how rad can we make it? I was just back looking at one I build for a Nica friend and it’s exactly as I left it. Just like Nica and I’ll be for ever grateful for it to stay the same to teach all those who truly get to experience the real Nicaragua 🇳🇮

@@Elefty415 love it! Marketeers for life 😎

@@stokes111100 it’s been a while! The rebar is used as a support to hold the fram rigid and square. Like the big x I used to put on the back of a skateboard ramp 😂😎 but seriously we ran the idea by a structural engineer

@@schoolnyc that roof was put up by the guys without a system. It just wasn’t at the level it needed to be. It’s pretty damn good now though. They muchachos have come so far I’m so proud of them and now they know they can never unknow!

@@Natsolllc well… some are longer than others :)

@@TiminNicaragua definitely a custom job! Everyone is just a bit different 😂

@@schoolnyc dude… thank you

@@schoolnyc almost man! We are still going at it! Tomorrow we cut the pipe at the septic and clean it out then re do the line in 4” with only one sweeping 22. Just have to be there for every part of the build! Thanks for chiming in 😎

@@splashndirtpowersports7985 so bad man!

@@geneharris4953 yes gene! And thank you for reaching out. My building experience in Central America has been absolutely fantastic and I have had a lot of fun building from all kinds of mediums. I would consider myself a searcher for a better way type of builder. All the wonderful ways to build have brought me to metal, plastic, glass and as little concrete as possible. Building out of wood is a fantastic experience for those like myself who have the luxury of having the time necessary to become a competent, the same goes for aircrete, cob and bamboo…The thing with building in Central America is being able to scale your building output to service enough people while not pricing yourself out of the market. There is nothing worse than a wood framer that builds the cabinets or a furniture builder framing a bamboo house. With rad pad I have been able to teach people with little building experience the process and how to build differently. It is the system and design of a rad pad that makes the galvanized steel the superior choice of building material, not the material that makes the rad pad the superior solution. I don’t think you were asking me a question, it seemed more like a statement that invited a response 😂 I think you are absolutely right in that steel is not better than any other material. However steel is by far the best material to use when using the rad pad building system. Rad= radical change, Pad= landing pad and launch pad 😎 Have a rad night! Big parade in domi tonight!

@@TiminNicaragua it blows my mind!

Painting has been such a big part of rad pad. At first it was almost overlooked… how hard could it be? We first tried car paint with special hydraulic paint sprayers, then came the air compressors then the electric blow dryer paint machines then the brush then the roller now brush, roller and blow dryer combo. We now clean the metal right when we buy it and paint it right away. We paint the welds with an oil base paint special for the welds then we use water base anticorrosive paint because it bonds with the galvanized metal better than the oil based and the clean up is way way way easier 😎 the trick is to do everything really well.

Sounds rad! Where does the condensation from the dryer go?

@@radpadradpad The same drain pipe used for washing water - Yes rad on steriods! Such a perfect fit for you, In my humble Opionion of course.
