IntegratED With Jamie Palmer - A podcast for online entrepreneurs

We were super excited to have the one and only Stephen Larson on the OMG Show today! Stephen has wanted to be an entrepreneur since he was in high school. As someone who had always been interested in selling, he was able to start learning how to make money after being in dire financial circumstances. He tried door to door sales, being a telemarketer, and becoming a real estate agent, all of which didn’t amount to the success that he was looking for.

This year my focus for my business has really become all about making marketing simple. That encompasses all stages of what we do. I’ve been working on creating a business ecosystem builders code that would work for people who are just starting out all the way up to people who have a million-dollar business. At the end of the day, not all implementation is created equal!

As an entrepreneur and parent, it’s been quite the struggle figuring out how to separate work time and home time. I’m lucky enough to have an office in my house where I can escape to when I need to get work done, but even then it can be tricky. My kids love coming in to say hi throughout the day, and are reminded that I’m working since I’m in my office. This got me thinking about all the tips and tricks that I can share with other mompreneurs and parents who are working from home on their business.

One of my goals on the podcast is to help you learn from the mistakes that I’ve made along the way. I love using myself as a test case, and I’m always trying out new techniques from a marketing perspective and putting myself out there in different ways. One mistake that I made early in my career was that I had no communication policy for clients. Creating expectations around communication can help to let your clients know what to expect when they contact you and vice versa.

Stephenie Zamora joined us on the OMG show today to talk all about her experience as an entrepreneur! Her business covers a variety of services, all of which revolve around supporting her clients in all areas of starting their business and getting it off the ground. Having been in business for around 10 years, Stephenie shared her experience growing her company, how she started out, and the things she never expected as an entrepreneur.

I’ve been having a ton of conversations lately with people who are service providers that are looking to enter the online world. Personal trainers, yoga instructors, chiropractors, or holistic business are just a few of the most recent people that I’ve talked about creating a business in the online space. As you move from working with people in person to working with them in the online world, it’s a little bit different.

I wanted to do a podcast around how you can learn how to make quick decisions in your business. As I’ve looked into how to continue to grow my business, one thing that I’ve seen continuously is that people who are running 7-figure businesses are able to make decisions very easily. I share this with you because often times many of us hem and haw over little things instead of trying to figure out the fastest way of going from A to B.

It’s time to break up with the distractions! I recently shared a story about how I was able to grow my business and step into a CEO role, and this story got a ton of traction so I wanted to share it with you guys. I manage my own schedule for the most part, as well as manage my team, take care of my kids, schedule their nanny, and look after my tenants, all of which come on top of running my business and being CEO. It all comes down to eliminating those distractions.

We welcomed Brittany Hammond onto the OMG Show this week to help shed some light on the massive effect that branding can have for your business. As an expert in film and branding, Brittany helps her clients to create short films, music videos, and brand stories to help people in all industries tap into their voice. She is able to help them show up on camera and articulate their message in a clear way that is relatable to their audience.

I had something important that I wanted to talk about on the podcast. Recently, I’ve been seeing another epidemic in the online space where other entrepreneurs are just… stuck. There is a whole breed of people who set goals for themselves or their business but they don’t work towards accomplishing them. They end up staying in this building mode where they obsess over moving forward, and they have a million different iterations of a website or a sales page, but they don’t ACTUALLY ever launch.
