  • Clarify Your Message and Elevate Your Impact with: Jon Cook

    Teams that

    communicate well are known to be more efficient, creative, and satisfied.
    Statistics from a Gallup study revealed that companies with highly engaged
    teams, fostered by effective communication, show 21% greater profitability.

     

    Jon Cook is

    an author, speaker, and investor who helps coaches, consultants, and advisors
    elevate their impact and income. He is the founder of Keynote Content® and
    Advisor Story®, and the creator of the Neurempathy Symbiotic Messaging
    Approach™, the Expert Message Method™, and the Advisor Story Model™. Jon has
    worked with over 1,300 different business coaches and consultants, as well as
    more than 900 different speakers one-on-one across 40+ industries, helping them
    gain remarkable clarity with their messages.

     

    When I

    first started as a writer in 2010, I thought simply sharing my story over and
    over would ‘automagically’ kickstart fame and fortune. Instead? *crickets* Like
    you’ve probably done, I poured myself into ‘adding value in advance’, being on
    every social media platform at once, all the usual junk drawer of marketing
    tips and tricks. The result? *still a lot of crickets* It wasn’t until I
    focused on clarifying my message – what I was actually saying and how I was
    saying it – that I started seeing results. Slowly at first, then random calls,
    emails, and follow-up conversations after speaking at an event. Since 2017,
    I’ve worked one-on-one with close to 1,300 coaches, consultants, and advisors
    across 40+ industries to help clarify their message and elevate their impact.
    And I have the plan and the results to show you how YOU can get the alignment
    and momentum you need to reach more people with YOUR message. (This is the part
    where you’re now curious…”What’s your secret?”) He joined me this week to tell
    me more.

    (30%). Additionally, more than half of Canadians feel they are behind on
    retirement savings, according to a recent survey by tax preparation firm
    H&R Block Canada.

     

    The survey also revealed that 52% of Canadians admit to being unprepared

    for retirement due to insufficient savings. These individuals are planning to
    work part-time after retirement. Nathan Best, a financial advisor for Edward
    Jones, is not surprised by these findings. Nathan specializes in helping
    corporate professionals and business owners make wise financial decisions that
    will help them reach retirement faster.

    process, strategy, avoiding market downturns, and protecting savings. When he's

    businesses around town.

  • Helping Broadcast Talent and Athletes Elevate Their On Air Performance with: Carol Voronyak

    Let's discuss competitive

    tenacity and the discipline required to achieve success in the professional
    world. A study by Harvard Business School found that 37% of employers consider
    experience the most important qualification for a job applicant, rather than
    educational attainment. Sports broadcasting is undergoing significant changes
    due to new technologies and streaming media services which allow for on-demand
    viewing. According to Indeed, sports broadcasting is a highly competitive
    field, making it more challenging to secure a position than in other sports or
    general broadcasting fields. Therefore, it's important to obtain a relevant
    degree, intern, and study the field to make an impression on a network when
    applying for positions. If you're serious about breaking into the industry,
    it's highly recommended to invest in media training and consulting. This is
    where my friend Carol Mayer Voronyak comes in; she's a Broadcast Media Coach
    and Consultant. "Do you need a trusted counselor to help you navigate and
    thrive in the competitive world of broadcast media? As a former 17-year ESPN

  • Unlock The Power of Differentiation with: Barry Labov

    In business, if you are in a

    leadership position, your most valuable asset that contributes to success is
