Guest Name:
Jason DiNunno - Digital Authority

Guest Intro:
My guest is Jason DiNunno. Jason is an entrepreneur and a family man. He runs three companies currently and has been in business one way or another since he was 18. He isn't that old so don't let him kid you but it's still longer than a couple of years.

Three years ago, he was running a financial advisory practice through MetLife. His daughter was born with special needs which brought him to the need to pivot and so he needed to be able to change what he was doing and get an online business. He needed some flexibility.

Now he helps other business owners transition online, establish their businesses and authority in their industry, and he does that with content and social media. His company is Digital Authority and you can find it at www.digittalauthority.co.


Topics We Discuss:
Shutting down his financial advisory practice to pivot to the marketing agency
His best processes and systems in place: The SOP's for SOP's
Biggest challenges: Teaching and hiring fast to scale
Hiring for greatness: Trial job, Culture vs. technical
Referral program as the best process for learning

Stashing ideas on Evernote and physical notebooks
Speed as a critical element of business
