Tyler McCall started his career in the oilfield because the time off and the money allowed him to do what he really wanted to do, ranch.
Tyler worked his way up from a hand on the rig to a management position just by putting in the effort and keeping his word.
He realized the next promotion would stick him in a full time office position so he decided it was time to go out on his own.
Rafter J Construction was born. Rafter J started as an equipment rental company mainly for oilfield, solar, and wind jobs. They also saw and opportunity to actually do some of the dirt work and construction theirselves so Rafter J now offers that service as well.
Building a company has taken up quite a bit of Tyler’s time but he still ranches. His operation now is primarily based on running sale barn calves on wheat.
Like a lot of us Tyler wants to build his company big enough to sell and be able to buy a big enough ranch for him and his family to make a good living on.

Dean Lopez and Dax Stokes like many of us knew nothing but hustle and hard work to make money.
They still have this mentality but now they’re using that hustle and hard work to build their own company instead of someone else’s.
De-Ax Trailer Sales was founded to solve Dean and Dax’s own problems of the need for new equipment but not being able to afford the prices of the brands that were out there.
Luckily they thought that other people would want to buy these same quality products at a lower price than the name brands.
They were correct.
De-Ax prides theirselves in being heavily connected and involved in the farming, ranching, and rodeo industries so they know the issues that everyone deals with and they can build their products to solve those issues. They’re also very connected to the community so if you need something custom they can build it or if there’s an issue with a product they can solve it for you.
Check out this very relatable journey of two entrepreneurs in the agriculture retail world.

Austin wanted to be a pilot from a very young age.
Most people doubted his big dream when he was a kid especially being from a small town that is disconnected from that world.
Austin didn’t listen to the doubt and pursued his passion to be a pilot by first flying helicopters and then planes.
This meant working in the big city and dealing with wealthy individuals.
Austin realized his growth was limited after hearing from one of his clients that he’ll never be able to ride in the back of the private plane if he’s flying it in the front.
This started the search for opportunity and change and the desire to build something of his own and being able to raise a family in the same small town country environment that he grew up in.
He turned to agriculture and cattle but realized that was long hours and sometimes short pay, so he kept his eyes open for more opportunities.
Austin was able to start a business that stayed in line with his passion for beef, Flying T Meat Market.
A chance meeting with a customer developed into a new venture also in the beef business, Trail Ridge Beef Jerky.

Noel looks at problems as opportunities.
Anyone that team ropes knows that when a roping steer is wore out he’s not worth very much compared to what you have to pay for a fresh one.

He had heard of the 1017 Project where they turn wore out ropers into beef for the hungry. The wheels started turning on how he could do something similar in Central TX.
What started as a backyard deal with Noel and a few roping buddies has grown to multiple locations and TX Beef Initiative provides high quality protein for hungry people across the state.

Emilio started out like a lot of us, not really knowing what he wanted to do with his life.
He got the opportunity to go to a trade show and shape hats at a booth. Emilio really enjoyed every aspect of that. He was able to interact with people and he realized he had a talent for shaping hats to how people wanted them.
There was a need in his area for a custom hat shop and he thought it was the perfect opportunity. He opened Double R Hat House where you can go buy high quality open crown hats and get them shaped to your liking.
Of course that have been struggles along the way like most small businesses have. At first it was wondering if there would be any customers and then came so many customers it was hard to keep inventory and also have enough help to attend to the customers.
Emilio has figured these problems out and continues to learn and evolve as the business and customer needs evolve.
Learning isn’t something you did, it’s something you do.

After graduating college and getting “good jobs” just like we’re told we’re supposed to do, Chelsea and Bailey quickly realized they weren’t cut out for that life.
They were both unhappy being apart from each other and while their jobs were in their fields of interest they didn’t fulfill them.
After some brainstorming they decided that real estate was the path they needed to take.
After getting licensed and trained they noticed that the methods for acquiring clients were very old school and transactional, so they decided to implement some of their own strategies as well.
They paired old ways, new ways, and probably most importantly a lot of hard work to become successful real estate agents and eventually brokers.
Wealth is not created by selling real estate, it’s created by buying real estate. They realized this and began investing for the future. They have several cool properties at the moment and are always looking for opportunities.
