Helping Changemakers Build Wealth Like They Build Solutions: With Purpose | Ex-Apple Engineer

I’m Jon Weiskopf. I sketched my first building at 7 with my dad—an artist. When he passed at 13, I learned one truth: places shape people. So I built a career making places that matter.

I became a mechanical engineer and spent 20 years in real estate including 9 years as head of engineering for Apple Retail—300+ stores in 20+ countries. Standards. Sustainability. Delivery at scale. Precision and possibility became the norm. But after nearly a decade, I was burned out building their dream.

I took a 3-month reset and asked, “What world will my child inherit if we keep building the old way?”

In 2023, I walked from stock options I could retire with to launch Blue Eyed Capital.

Now I invest where life happens—affordable housing (value-add apartments, mobile home parks, assisted living, and build-to-rent developments)—and I back operators who execute with private credit (short term, high yield loans). 

Proof, not promises: 342 GP units (~$29M AUM). 13 private loans ($2.3M). $0 losses.
Powered by engineering-grade diligence, apple-style commitment, and an impact framework that measures what matters.

If you’re a values-driven engineer, tech leader, or aligned operator—and you want capital that compounds and contributes—DM me. 

Let’s build wealth that matters.

Jon Weiskopf, P.E.

You can’t engineer luck.
But you can engineer outcomes.

Luck is random.
Outcomes are repeatable.

That’s why we treat every investment like an engineering system.

Inputs.
Variables.
Outputs.
Controls.

We don’t hope for good deals.
We design them.

From risk models to lender relationships, nothing is left to chance.

When others gamble, we measure.
When others react, we refine.

That’s how predictability compounds faster than luck ever could.

>> Would your portfolio still perform if luck stopped showing up?

Engineering passive income for you like I engineered Apple’s global retail store portfolio.

The day a contractor walked off-site taught me everything about leadership.


It was 18 years ago.

We were mid-construction.
Schedules were tight.
Stress was high.

The contractor quit on the spot.
No warning.
No plan.
Just gone.

At that moment, I realized leadership isn’t about authority, it’s about clarity.

I hadn’t communicated expectations clearly.
I hadn’t given ownership, just orders.

That was my mistake.

So I changed my approach.
Now, I lead every project with alignment first, accountability second.

Because when everyone understands why they’re building, how becomes easy.

>> What would your business look like if you led with clarity instead of control?

How I added $13,270 in property value
With a 10-minute phone call.

No renovation.
No rent increase.
No capital expenditure.

Just attention to detail.

During a routine utility audit, I noticed something off.
Our facility uses a third-party trash service,
But 2 of our bills still showed trash fees = $47 each.

That’s $94/month we shouldn’t be paying.
Or $1,128 per year leaking straight from NOI.

One phone call later, refund issued.
Fees removed.
Value added.

At a standard 8% cap rate
That $94/month equals $13,270 in asset value.

You are reading this, thinking $13,000 is nothing.

But $13,000 X 10 = $130,000
X 100 = $1,300,000
Pennies add up.

That’s what great operators do.
We don’t chase shiny returns.
We hunt inefficiencies.

I guarantee that everyone reading this has an error on a utility bill.

We refinanced a Kansas property in 15 months.
Returned 57% of investor capital early.

Riverfront Apartments looked ordinary.
72 units.
Outdated interiors.
Weak management.

We saw untapped equity.

Our strategy:
Buy below market value.
Upgrade units untouched for over a decade.
Transition tenants from month-to-month to annual leases.

Fifteen months later—refinanced.
57% of investor capital returned.
Cash flow intact.

This is what disciplined execution looks like.
Not hype.
Not luck.
Just operations that work.

The best returns don’t come from timing the market.
They come from managing it.

>> Would you rather chase market appreciation or create it?

The first time I funded a private loan, I realized something powerful: control feels better than hope.


I’d spent years relying on markets I couldn’t influence.
Stocks.
Funds.
External forces I had zero control over.

Then I wrote my first private loan.
Structured it myself.
Protected it with collateral.

For the first time, my results depended on my process, not someone else’s promises.

That changed everything.

Because the moment you understand how to control capital, you stop hoping for outcomes and start creating them.

>> What would your financial strategy look like if you replaced hope with control?

Using Video to Keep Visitors on Your Website Longer

The Video Strategy that Closed a Major Deal in a Florida Conference Room

David runs a communications company. In a high-stakes meeting with potential resellers, someone asked: "How do your customers like working with you?"
Instead of talking about his amazing service and track record, David said:

"I can't tell you about that, but my customer will."

He pulled up a video testimonial. Let his client do the talking. Deal closed. They're now doing business together and looking to expand.

That's the power of video testimonials.

People don't trust what you say about yourself. They trust what others say about you. And they trust it even more when they can see and hear it.
Three real examples from my clients:

📌 David - Used a testimonial in a meeting to close a major partnership 
📌 Christian - Went from zero clients to landing his first major client through a website testimonial 
📌 James - Testimonials have helped prospects understand their value and have made a difference in closing deals.

These aren't flukes. This is what happens when you stop hiding behind written reviews and start showing real people sharing real results.

If you're still relying on written testimonials, Google reviews, or your own claims to sell your services, you're leaving money on the table.

Video testimonials answer the questions your prospects are too polite to ask:

What was the issue you helped them solve?
What were the results you delivered?
Was it worth the investment?

When a real person answers questions like these on camera, it's more powerful than anything you could ever say about yourself.

Check out this week’s Video Lion (it’s episode 100, guys!) where I go deep into these questions.

"The Silent Majority Test"

Watch your video without sound. Does it still make sense?

80% of social media video is watched without audio. Captions aren't optional anymore.

Text overlays. Clear visual storytelling. Make your message work silently.

Sound enhances. Visuals must communicate.

"The ROI Formula Nobody Teaches"

One great video that converts beats fifty mediocre videos that don't.

Quality over quantity? Sometimes. But consistent quality beats sporadic genius.

Track what works. Double down on winners. Cut the losers. Let data drive your decisions, not your ego.

"The Question That Saves Every Video"

Every video should answer one question in the first ten seconds: "Why should I care?"

If you can't answer that, you've already lost them.

Make it about them—their problem, your solution, their result.

Care about what they care about, not what you want to talk about.

"The Lighting Excuse Keeping You Broke"

Great content with okay lighting beats okay content with great lighting. Every. Single. Time.

Your message matters more than your setup. Start now with what you have.

The fancy gear can come later. Your voice needs to be heard today, not "when everything's ready."

Perfection is just procrastination wearing a fancy hat.

"Break This and You Break The Scroll"

Start your video with something unexpected—a strange sound, an odd visual, a provocative statement.

Break the scroll pattern. Make them stop and wonder "What's this?"

Those first three seconds determine everything. Normal gets scrolled past. Weird gets watched.

"Your Title Is Your First Sales Pitch"

Boring title equals no clicks. Compelling title equals curious viewers.

Use numbers. Create curiosity. Promise value. Be specific.

"Video Marketing Tips" is forgettable. "5 Video Mistakes Killing Your Sales" demands attention.

Your content might be gold, but your title determines if anyone digs.

"Features Tell, Results Sell"

Nobody cares about your video editing process. They care about results.

Interview your clients on camera and capture how your videos helped them double their leads.

Show the before and after.

Features inform. Results persuade. Case studies close deals.
