    Transcript

    Kevin: Well, I go back to grand promise: a brand is not your logo, it’s not your name, it’s the promise you make and keep to your customers base. And so, you need to be thinking about, how I can I make that promise unique to my organization? The second thing I would be thinking about: a brand needs care & feeding, we need to be thinking about it, if not every day, then at least every week, or every month. Whenever you make a big decision, you should be asking yourself, how is this going this to effect our brand, how does this effect the promise that we’ve made to our customers? Is it going to take us off course, or is it going to focus us? And if it is going to take you off course, then you need to think long and hard about it. And then, I do want to say, that it is really worthwhile to brand your company. One study has shown that up to 68% of the value of the average US company is for the brand alone. You can see how much that’s gonna add to the value of your company, I mean that’s almost 70%.

  • Chris Sprague - How Are You Wired?

    Here's a past highlight from one of our Guests. Find their full interview at www.ExitCoachRadio.com -- just click "Audio Library" in the "LISTEN" section and enter their name to hear all of their past interviews!

    Chris Sprague of the Chris M. Sprague Team, discusses how finding your "zero point" is the key to reducing frustration, increasing performance and happiness.

    Transcription: 

    Bill: What would your life be like if you could just do what you want to do all the time? Here's expert Chris Sprague. 

    Chris: The beautiful part about today is, when you hit 50, you still have half your life ahead of you. If your listeners take nothing else from me than this, I want them to hear this. If you do what you were meant to do, if you find your zero point and live to that for even one day, even one hour of one day of your life, even if it's the last hour of your life, then your life has been a success because there so any people, there are millions of people out there, who don't even live one hour of their life knowing their true purpose, knowing their true zero point, knowing their true DNA and making that true impact. So if you can find that, even if it's the last hour of your life or the last day or the last week, always strive to find it because that will make your life successful, and I guarantee it will make you happy.

  • Annette Fadness - The Importance of Clean and Current Books

    Host: Bill Black. Annette is a seasoned bookkeeper and QuickBooks consultant who helps small business owners get the most out of the QuickBooks software. Audio library: www.ExitCoachRadio.com. New content daily - check back often!

    Transcription: 

    Bill: When should someone consider outsourcing books to someone like yourself? 

     

    Annette: I always think it's a good idea. The only time you shouldn't is if you're just getting started, and literally you can't afford it. We know how lean it is the first few months or first few years in a business. And at some point you have to just sort of just choose, look, in a perfect world, I would have this, but I won't. So, that would be one instance where you wouldn't. Alternatively, if your business is really simple, and you, or your spouse, or your assistant, or your fill in the blank, some trusted person, has a strong accounting background and knows Quickbooks fair well, and they're going to do it for you, awesome. Or, if you, yourself, have that accounting background, and you have the time to do it. But, I just think that in most cases it's not the best use of the business owner's time, and often they're not going to do as good of a job.

  • KJ Trapp - Train Your Smartphone & Grow Your Business

    We add new content daily! Listen on iTunes: iTunes.ExitcoachRadio.com. See the Index for more on this Topic or by this Guest.

     
    Transcript:

    KJ: Probably the most asked question, which is probably 95% of the time, is: how do I engage into a prospect the minute we turn around and walk away from each other? Because most people say, "I’m not good at follow-up,” and that’s professionals across the board. And we do start with the memo pad, having a short memo that you can send to them in a text, saying, it was a pleasure meeting you, and please look forward to a one-time email. And you say the word one-time because it relaxes their mind and it makes them think you’re not a spammer. And then you follow up with an email saying, as promised, here’s an email. And if you can do that immediately when walking away, you’ll get a lot more respect, people will want to do business with you more often.
