BizQuik

Julie and Corey take a break from the long line of podcast guests to talk about motivation when it comes to starting new projects and following through to the end.  The conversation gets a little off topic at the front end as they discuss time management and some of the reasons why people aren’t great at completing tasks.  After the break, they bring it back to discuss planning and execution and eventually cover how to get motivated.

Joe and Jon DeGroff of DeGroff Financial out of Hurricane, WV join the podcast to talk about personal and small business finances.  Julie and Corey start off the show by discussing retirement planning and risk and bring the DeGroff brothers on after the break to continue the discussion, but they soon get off track.  Joe and Jon talk about their custom approach to financial planning, taking a holistic view of your finances, and their 4 phase approach to financial wellness.  The group talks about the importance of learning from mistakes and experience and oddly how little the finance world knows about how money and people work.

Jennifer Radostits joins the podcast to talk to Julie and Corey about being a connector and how important it is to be proficient at networking, but first, the BizQuik team talks about building networks without social media.  After Jen joins, the three talk about being a connector, the value of curiosity when it comes to networking, and why each of them thinks they’re an introvert.  Later in the show, they cover the importance of seeing people for who they really are and the power of referrals.  As they close out the podcast, Jen leaves everyone with some knowledge about why you should never underestimate the value of an introduction with a qualified person.
