  • The 4 Biggest Lessons Pat Learned in 2023
    Dec 30 2023

    It seems we were just talking about our 'word of the year', and now here we are at the end of 2023! Pat is sharing four things he learned this year, but it might surprise you that they aren't huge, earth-shattering lessons, but rather simple truths that could help us all.

    Listen in as Pat reflects on the lessons he learned this year, and what worked and what didn't.

    Also on this episode:

    • Managing People / Small Business - Did you wake up one day and realize that in the process of building a small business, you also became an unofficial manager? Matt Ley, founder and principle of Flip the Script lets us in on some of the warning signs that you're creeping into manager territory.
    • Sales / Prospecting / Qualifying Leads - Do you want more sales? Sure, we all do. But there's an important middle step between wanting to make more sales and actually increasing sales in your business. We're talking with Jenifer Frye, CEO and founder of Appreciated Asset, to uncover the secret to that all-important step and how to do it effectively.
    • Mindfulness / Goal Setting - What if all of your hopes and dreams for 2024 could come true? Kaitlin Henze, founder of Passion to Profit Consulting shares a different approach to goal setting, using mindfulness. You'll want to hear what she has to say!

    Dec 23 2023

    What is going on with mortgages!?! We start the show with an interview with Michael Creed, Producing Branch Manager for Luminate Home Loans. Though mortgage rates have come down slightly, they are still quite high. Michael gives us some insight on where things will most likely settle and how lenders are reacting to current and possible future mortgage rates.

  • 3 Steps to Getting the Most Out of this Season of Giving
    Dec 16 2023

    Tis the season to reflect on the past year, and to anticipate what could happen in 2024. What is working in your business? What needs to be fixed? Is growth happening at a rate that you are happy with? Is growth happening at all? Whew! Asking these questions can get exhausting.

    But rather than get overwhelmed with all the questions, today we're talking about gratitude. Entrepreneurship comes with a lot of risk, but with that risk comes the potential to achieve the American Dream. Being gutsy enough to build a small business means you're probably doing something that you LOVE! You're also probably happier than those running the corporate grind. And that's the best gift you could give yourself this season.

    Also on this episode:

    • Web Design / Marketing - In business, your website is often the first impression potential clients have of you. Kristin Pearson, from Kristin Pearson Design is walking us through what to include and what to avoid on your website so that you look like the expert you are.
    • Legal / Being Proactive - As a small business owner, you never know when you might need a lawyer. Carolyn Jahnke, founder of Athena Legal Solutions tells us how and why to use a lawyer, and why it's also a good idea to already have that relationship built before you need them.
    • Self-Improvement / Retreat - Do you feel stuck? Krista Morrissey, Chief Growth Officer with Choices Coaching & Consulting is here to help us erase the negative stories we tell ourselves and focus on what makes us shine! If you are in a season of being stuck, register now for Krista's retreat - The Power of Your Journey.
