Friday Coffee Talks

Friday Coffee Talks #123 - It was a travel week and I had one of the weirdest trips ever. Everything went great but the day was filled with things that you don't often see in airports and on planes. I review the last couple of weeks, my strange sightings, and then debut a new segment called the Steaming Hot Tip. This may be renamed. Today's first SHT covers automated emailing. Enjoy!

I'm a sucker for reality competition shows: Big Brother, Amazing Race, Survivor - give me all of them. However, perhaps none of them have captivated me like MTV's The Challenge has. I've watched it from the very beginning and it has evolved into something incredible. Bill Simmons used to do a weekly column on the show and even started a Challenge Fantasy League. It's one of my favorite shows and this episode explains why.

Friday Coffee Talks #120 - It's time to TREAT YO SELF! It's the best day of the year! Grab your sequined jacket, head to the spa, and tuck in for a big announcement. My Parks and Rec fans will know, but today is about casting the budget aside and indulging in self-care like never before. It's also about bringing you fun news that our small business is expanding to our second location! Follow the build out process with me on Instagram at @piggyjoshalcyon

A few weeks ago, I made a post about a certain restaurant's grilled cheese sandwich and I was met with contention that there were other, better sandwiches out there. In an effort to set the record straight, I hit the streets to taste them for myself. I created a bracket and pitted QuikTrip, Starbucks, Waffle House, and Zaxby's against each other. Who will come out on top? Click play to find out.

Friday Coffee Talks #117 - A collection of things that I've been meaning to discuss, but haven't fit into another episode. Today's episode ranges from the Braves to piano to peanut butter & jelly. Fall is almost here and I couldn't be more stoked. Dodgers fans, BLT enthusiasts, and pumpkin spice latte basics - trigger warning!

Friday Coffee Talks #116 - Maybe it's because I talk about almost nothing else, but more and more sales trainers or gurus or experts or influencers are hitting my social media feed than ever before. Some of them are great: Alex Hormozi could teach me about being named Conner and I'd listen. Others? Not so much. The mentality of "I can close anyone" or "I can tell you're a weak seller by the car you drove in today" is not just wrong, it's dangerous. I'm here to tell you why I think so.

Friday Coffee Talks #115 - On today's episode, I go through my list of the greatest movie speeches of all time. Fair warning - watching this WILL make you patriotic, fired up, and I can't be held responsible for all the added productivity and fire you approach the day with today. I love a great speech and these are some of the best around. Did I leave out any that I shouldn't have? Let me know in the comments.

Friday Coffee Talks #113 - It's the Friday of a Taylor Swift album release and Threads are making Sparks Fly! This episode was Mine but I was joined by little Fallon who I want to Never Grow Up - when I was coming to record today, she couldn't help but Speak Now. She's here to tell The Story of Us and our Enchanted experience running Piggy Jo's pop-up shops even all the way Back To December. She's learned a ton about running a store and is sharing her best, Innocent tips. Fal has learned from the best to know that customer experience is a huge emphasis of Mine and her Mom's. Little things like being able to guide gift giving, remembering names and saying "Dear John" when they come in, and making them smile is Better Than Revenge. Please enjoy!

Friday Coffee Talks #112 - Building relationships in sales is a topic that is pretty hotly contested among the community. Some people think that it is a waste of time and that time would be better spent pounding the phones. Others think it is essential to building trust relationships with decision-makers that need people around to advise their projects and initiatives. I'm pretty firmly on one side and I don't think it's too hard to figure out which. Join me in the ep for more on why.

Friday Coffee Talks #111 - What else could this week's episode be about besides the Titanic sub? It had been the thing that has captivated us all week. The thought of rescuing five people with time running out was enough to draw anyone in. Although the ending was the tragic one that all of us were hoping to avoid, the details surrounding the whole saga continue to grow more fascinating. We're all heartbroken to have lost five explorers but there are many more conversations to be had.
