Rob Dyrdek is a Restaurant Influencer -

The serial entrepreneur and founder of Dyrdek Machine can sum up his success with one phrase: “I put myself in position to get lucky.”

Rob Dyrdek’s pivot in focus caused him to set forth on a path to share his story with others to help them also focus on their priorities and learn balance.

“You've got to decide what you actually love to do and what you want the future to become, and then design a pathway to get there.” says Rob Dyrdek to Restaurant Influencers host Shawn Walchef of https://calibbq.media.

That realization came after Dyrdek had already created wildly successful TV shows, such as Rob & Big, and the ever-popular Ridiculousness series. Though the latter had seen unprecedented success on MTV (conquering much of their programming schedule), Rob Dyrdek says he dedicated an exorbitant amount of time to his work while merely breaking even.

“Despite having all of this stuff and it was breaking even based off of my athlete (ability) and talent.” explains Rob Dyrdek of his awakening. “And so it just changed me and made me realize not only am I not the entrepreneur that I thought that I was, but I don't even fully understand business like I thought I did. And I also just wasn't happy.”

He took this new knowledge and began to create the life he felt most desirable by creating the Dyrdek Machine and optimizing every minute of his day. Now, Ridiculousness, one of his flagship products and MTV’s most prominent shows of all time, runs on high octane.

Once burned out by shooting 60 shows a year, Rob Dyrdek has created such production efficiency, he has increased that output to 250 shows last year. But it doesn’t stop there. He has plans to shoot an astounding 336 shows per year for the next five years.

How?

“It's the most highly optimized, automated machine you can even imagine,” says Rob Dyrdek about his empire.”
