July 30, 2024EPS08:014 [Mitchell Levy] Building Credibility with Mitchell Levy
Welcome to the Evolvepreneur (After Hours) Show
I am your Special Host Richard Wray
Join me today where we dig deep with our guests and get you the best concepts and strategies to fast-track your business.

My very special guest today is Mitchell Levy ...

Mitchell Levy is a globally recognized credibility expert, TED speaker, and best-selling author who has shaped leadership voices worldwide. He defines credibility as being trusted, known, and liked by one's audience. As an entrepreneur, it's important to have clarity on who you serve and their pain points or pleasure points, as this helps establish your credibility. Building a referral network and outsourcing tasks you're not skilled at are also key to maintaining credibility as an entrepreneur. The most common mistake people make is pursuing credibility before they have clarity on their focus and target audience.
Key Moments:
Credibility is not just about being trusted, but also being known and liked by your audience.

Likability is crucial for entrepreneurs, as it can give you an edge over competitors even if they have a higher quality product.

To be likable, focus on showing respect and "spreading cred dust" by sharing the ideas and wisdom of others.

When starting out as an entrepreneur, be open to opportunities that may not be exactly what you envisioned, as they can lead to unexpected growth.

Building a strong referral network is one of the most important things an entrepreneur can do to establish credibility.

Having clarity about who you serve and their pain/pleasure points (your "CPOP") is essential for standing out.

Outsourcing tasks you're not skilled at can help maintain quality and credibility as an entrepreneur.

Thought leadership has become ubiquitous with AI, so focusing on a narrow, targeted niche is key

July 23, 2024EPS08:013 [Henry Woodman] Making The Dream Happen
Welcome to the Evolvepreneur (After Hours) Show
I am your Special Host Richard Wray
Join me today where we dig deep with our guests and get you the best concepts and strategies to fast-track your business.

My very special guest today is Henry Woodman ...

Henry Woodman is a visionary entrepreneur and media pioneer who has had a diverse career, from producing travel films to creating virtual tour platforms for the travel industry. After selling his previous company, Woodman is now pursuing his lifelong dream of developing a TV series based on a memoir written by his late father. The series, titled "The Reincarnation of Marie," is a paranormal romance/historical fiction project that Woodman has been working on for years. Throughout his entrepreneurial journey, Woodman has consistently sought out opportunities, been willing to take risks, and emphasized the importance of mindset and positivity in achieving one's goals. Woodman advises aspiring entrepreneurs to focus on solving problems, be prepared for rejection, and not let a crisis go to waste, as opportunities often arise from unexpected challenges.
Key Moments:
Henry Woodman is a serial entrepreneur who has pursued various opportunities throughout his career, including travel films, game shows, virtual tours, and now a TV series.

Henry emphasizes the importance of spotting problems or unmet needs and then acting on those opportunities, rather than waiting for them to come to you.

Henry believes that the digital revolution and rise of streaming platforms have opened up more opportunities for content creators and entrepreneurs in the media industry.

Henry advises entrepreneurs to focus on solving real problems, rather than just pursuing their own ideas, and to be prepared and lucky in order to capitalize on opportunities.

Marketing and promotion are critical but challenging aspects of building a successful business, requiring persistence and creativity to stand out.

Henry stresses the importance of mindset and positivity, suggesting that one's thoughts and beliefs can shape their life outcomes.

Henry's current project, "The Reincarnation of Marie", is a paranormal romance TV series concept based on his late father's memoir, which he acquired the rights to decades ago.

The story behind "The Reincarnation of Marie" is itself an inspiring tale of perseverance and honoring one's family legacy.

Henry estimates it will take 2-3 years to bring the TV series to fruition, illustrating that even "overnight successes" often have long gestation periods.

Henry emphasizes the importance of gratitude and appreciating one's blessings, even in the face of challenges, as a key to maintaining a positive mindset.

July 17, 2024EPS08:012 [Nobby Kleinman ] Being Retired and Broke at 70 - How to Ease The Squeeze
Welcome to the Evolvepreneur (After Hours) Show
I am your Special Host Richard Wray
Join me today where we dig deep with our guests and get you the best concepts and strategies to fast-track your business.

My very special guest today is Nobby Kleinman ...

After 2 decades as a financial adviser, more than 4000 clients and hundreds of employers and their staff, Nobby found the major flaw in financial planning because of one question he was always being asked by women. As a result, he created and developed the world’s first complete program to help women manage money, eliminate debt and secure their financial future to become educated, empowered and enriched. And it works for men as well!
Key Moments:
During the pandemic, many people withdrew money from their retirement/superannuation funds, often using it for non-essential purchases instead of necessities, which will negatively impact their long-term financial security.

Nobby emphasizes the importance of having a long-term financial plan rather than just focusing on short-term concerns or crises.

Nobby developed a program that helps people, especially women, manage their daily finances and eliminate debt more efficiently without the need to refinance or take on additional jobs.

The program focuses on the core principles of spending less than you earn and prioritizing high-interest debt payments.

Nobby found that women tend to be more detail-oriented and visual when it comes to financial planning, while men prefer a more straightforward, bottom-line approach.

Nobby's program provides a "push button" solution that allows users to see the long-term impact of their current financial situation and how they can improve it.

Nobby emphasizes the importance of planning for retirement early on, rather than waiting until the last minute.

Many people spend more time planning their annual vacations than they do planning for their long-term financial future.

Nobby is skeptical of cryptocurrency and other "get-rich-quick" investment schemes, preferring more traditional and stable financial strategies.

Nobby's key piece of advice is to make a financial plan and start implementing it today, rather than waiting until tomorrow.

July 03, 2024EPS08:011 [Paul Angelle] Plan, Motivation Vital for Accountability
Welcome to the Evolvepreneur (After Hours) Show
I am your Special Host Richard Wray
Join me today where we dig deep with our guests and get you the best concepts and strategies to fast-track your business.

My very special guest today is Paul Angelle ...

Paul is the founder of Law Familia, a company that previously provided fractional CEO services to law firms. He has extensive experience working in the restaurant industry from a young age, which shaped his entrepreneurial mindset. Paul emphasizes the importance of business owners understanding their key performance indicators and having a clear, comprehensive business plan, rather than relying on ego or passion alone. He believes accountability is critical for business growth, but it requires a solid plan and motivation aligned with the owner's personal goals. Paul now runs his own company, Lawfamea, and has recently launched a podcast called "Inappropriate Growth" focused on entrepreneurial mindset and strategies.
Key Moments:
Accountability is a choice, but without a plan or motivation, it's not an option. Having a clear, comprehensive business plan is crucial.

Knowing your key business metrics and numbers is essential for making fact-based decisions, rather than relying on ego or feelings.

Entrepreneurs often struggle to separate their personal identity from their business, which can hinder objectivity and accountability.

Bringing in an outside coach or fractional support can provide valuable perspective and experience to help business owners focus on the right priorities.

Defining clear, measurable goals tied to the owner's personal motivations is key for driving accountability and sustained growth.

Balancing efficiency and effectiveness is important - being highly efficient doesn't necessarily mean being effective, and vice versa.

Ego and pride can get in the way of holding employees, even family members, accountable within a business.

Frequent check-ins and breaking down goals into bite-sized, measurable steps helps maintain accountability.

Focusing on lead generation and business development activities is more important than just chasing revenue, as it ensures long-term sustainability.

Being willing to challenge one's own assumptions and beliefs, and making decisions based on facts rather than feelings, is crucial for business success.

June 26, 2024EPS08:009 [Phillip Stemann] How To Scale Your Business From A One-Man Army To A Successful Team
Welcome to the Evolvepreneur (After Hours) Show
I am your Special Host Richard Wray
Join me today where we dig deep with our guests and get you the best concepts and strategies to fast-track your business.

My very special guest today is Phillip Stemann ...

Phillip is a programmer who started coding at age 13 and has since founded multiple companies, worked as a freelancer, and now specializes in SEO. He discusses the challenges of scaling a one-person business, emphasizing the importance of creating standard operating procedures and setting clear goals and expectations with clients and employees. Phillip stresses the need for transparency and planning to minimize distractions and maintain work-life balance. He shares tips like using visual cues to signal availability and writing daily reflections to identify when it's time to hire help. Overall, Phillip's approach centers on being proactive, organized, and communicative as an entrepreneur.
Key Moments:
Phillip started programming at age 13 and was fascinated by how code could create visual outputs. This sparked his lifelong interest in technology and programming.

Phillip has founded multiple companies over the years, gaining valuable experience in both programming and business. He has learned important lessons from both successes and failures.

SEO (search engine optimization) is a complex and evolving field, with many ranking factors that companies need to focus on to improve their online visibility and traffic.

When transitioning from a one-person operation to building a team, creating detailed standard operating procedures (SOPs) is crucial to onboard new hires efficiently.

Maintaining focus and productivity amidst constant distractions is a major challenge. Philip uses tools like colored lights to signal his availability and minimize interruptions.

Setting clear boundaries and expectations with clients is important, including being transparent about when you are available and unavailable to communicate.

Defining key performance indicators (KPIs) helps both the business owner and clients evaluate the success of the collaboration.

Reflecting on one's daily work through a journaling practice can help identify patterns and signals that it's time to bring on additional support.

Phillip is a very structured and organized planner, using tools to map out his weeks and days in advance to maximize productivity.

Balancing work and personal time is an ongoing challenge, but stepping away from work is crucial to maintain motivation and avoid burnout.

June 24, 2024EPS08:008 [Cherie Mylordis] How To Do The Best Work Of Your Life
Welcome to the Evolvepreneur (After Hours) Show
I am your Special Host Richard Wray
Join me today where we dig deep with our guests and get you the best concepts and strategies to fast-track your business.

My very special guest today is Cherie Mylordis ...

Cherie Mylordis is the founder of nextgenify, and a Sydney-based work futurist, speaker, transformation and innovation coach, on a mission to help organisations reimagine the world of work for a better future. As a founding member of Accenture’s global change practice, with extensive expertise spanning strategy, complex change, agility and innovation, Cherie has a deep understanding of the challenges facing today's leaders. Cherie credits her five years working on the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games with shaping her approach to purpose-driven leadership and collaboration on a massive scale. She is now on a mission to empower future-fit workplaces to Work in 3D - a transformative approach to business and leadership.
Key Moments:
Cherie started in computer science but transitioned into change management, working on large, complex projects like the Sydney Olympics.

Cherie found that many people feel unfulfilled at work and not able to do their best work due to constraints like unclear purpose, bureaucratic culture, and poor work environments.

Cherie's research found that only 1/3 of leaders felt they were doing their best work, even if they were good at their jobs, due to systemic constraints.

The pandemic has led to the "great resignation" as people seek better work-life balance and don't want to return to old ways of working.

Cherie developed a framework called "work in 3D" - Discover your purpose, Dare to ditch outdated ways of working, and Dial up better ways of working.

Empowering employees, giving them autonomy, and connecting their work to a larger purpose are key to enabling people to do their best work.

Cherie has seen organizations successfully transform by clarifying purpose, removing unnecessary processes, and adopting more collaborative, agile ways of working.

Adapting approaches to local cultural norms is important when working across different countries.

Leaders need to let go of power and authority to enable their teams to thrive and succeed.

The key advice is to reflect on what you care about, what you'd love to influence, and then make changes to ditch constraints and enable better ways of working.

June 17, 2024EPS08:007 [Lawrence Petruzzelli] Why Every Business Needs a Top-Notch Accountant: Insights from a Finance Expert
Welcome to the Evolvepreneur (After Hours) Show
I am your Special Host Richard Wray
Join me today where we dig deep with our guests and get you the best concepts and strategies to fast-track your business.

My very special guest today is Lawrence Petruzzelli ...

Lawrence Petruzzelli is a leading tax and business advisor in Australia who aims to educate his clients on tax concepts and strategies. He emphasizes the importance of long-term planning and working closely with clients to understand their goals. Lawrence highlights common mistakes entrepreneurs make when trying to handle taxes on their own, such as using automated software incorrectly or failing to properly register for tax obligations. He advises new business owners to start as a sole trader, open a separate business bank account, and utilize free online resources before seeking professional advice. Lawrence shares a success story of helping a young ecommerce entrepreneur significantly improve profitability and position the business for a multimillion dollar sale.
Key Moments:
Lawrence Petruzzelli is a tax and business advisor in Australia who aims to provide educational and advisory services to his clients.

Proper business and tax structure is crucial, especially when transitioning from a sole trader to a company structure.

Accountants need to take a long-term, holistic view of their clients' goals and strategies, not just focus on short-term tax planning.

Continued professional development and staying up-to-date with the latest tax laws and regulations is essential for accountants.

Trying to do taxes and accounting on your own, even with automated software, can lead to major issues and overpayments to the tax office.

When starting a new business, the key initial steps are to register for an ABN, set up a separate business bank account, and avoid unnecessary bank fees.

Accountants can provide significant value by identifying expense leaks and optimizing business operations, leading to major profit increases.

Finding an accountant you can develop a good relationship with, who has experience in your industry, is important for getting the right advice.

AI and tools like ChatGPT can be useful for data analytics and generating questions, but should not be used for tax advice or compliance.

The core fundamentals of good bookkeeping and working with qualified professionals have not changed, despite the rise of new technologies.

Welcome to the Evolvepreneur (After Hours) Show
I am your Special Host Richard Wray
Join me today where we dig deep with our guests and get you the best concepts and strategies to fast-track your business.

My very special guest today is Joseph Lombardi ...

Joseph Lombardi is the managing partner of Iron Hawk Financial, a firm that helps the construction and blue-collar industries achieve financial stability. He discusses how the government is essentially a corporation that enslaves people through debt, taxation, and lack of financial education. Lombardi advocates using legal strategies like life insurance policies and fixed index annuities to build tax-free retirement savings outside of traditional government-sponsored accounts like 401(k)s. He argues that the ultra-wealthy utilize these strategies to legally minimize their taxes, and he wants to share this information to help average Americans become financially free. Lombardi offers his books and a free consultation to interested listeners.
Key Moments:
Joseph Lombardi is the managing partner of Iron Hawk Financial, a firm dedicated to helping the construction and blue-collar industries achieve financial stability.

Joseph believes the government is a corporation that enslaves people through debt, taxation, and interest rates. He aims to help people become "free" from this "matrix".

Joseph advocates using legal strategies within the tax code, such as life insurance policies under IRS code 7702, to build tax-free retirement and pension accounts.

He argues the ultra-wealthy use these strategies to legally minimize their taxes, and that average Americans are unaware of these options.

Joseph is critical of the student loan system, arguing it traps people in debt and prevents them from pursuing their true passions.

He emphasizes the importance of avoiding debt in general, stating that "good debt" like mortgages is rare and most debt is harmful.

Joseph believes the government, Wall Street, and the financial system are designed to keep average Americans in a state of financial servitude.

His main advice is for people to focus on planning for their future self, rather than just living in the present, in order to achieve financial freedom.

Joseph offers his books and resources for free to help educate people on these alternative financial strategies.

Overall, Joseph Lombardi presents a critical view of the current financial and governmental systems, and advocates using legal loopholes to build wealth outside of the "matrix".

My very special guest today is Sara Reyes ...
Sara Reyes is a virtual assistant (VA) and business coach who helps individuals, especially mothers, start their own VA businesses.

Sara Reyes started her own virtual assistant (VA) business after being made redundant during the COVID-19 pandemic while pregnant with her first child.

Sara was able to quickly build up her VA business by reaching out to her professional network and previous employers, becoming fully booked within 4 weeks.

As a VA, Sara provides high-level administrative and marketing support to 6 and 7-figure business owners and entrepreneurs.

Sara also coaches others, especially mothers, on how to start their own successful VA businesses by leveraging their existing skills.

Key to Sara's success was setting clear boundaries and using automation tools to manage her workload while also being a new mom.
