New Leader Workshop

Salem is Awesome.

Our guest this week is the incredible Wade Brooks.

So...who is he?

Wade Brooks is CEO of Livbar and has over 25 years of management experience. He was also an Associate Professor of Entrepreneurial Practice at Willamette University's Graduate School of Management for eight years.

A 25-minute podcast episode is only scratching the surface of the knowledge he has to offer, but we had a blast talking to him about what it means to be a Salem entrepreneur in 2019 and problems all entrepreneurs should be prepared to solve.

We've been doing the New Leader Workshop podcast for about three months now, and I feel like this episode is going to be big for us. Enjoy!

Be sure to take a screenshot of this episode and tag both @MrJacobEspi and @Livbar with a caption of your biggest takeaway.

Sometimes things come up, and unfortunately, our scheduled guest had to reschedule her visit. 

The show must go on! Mitch and I decided to talk about our vision for the podcast, recapped our talk about the book Multipliers and did a bit of brainstorming about new ways we can support Salem.

We want your feedback! Sent it to [email protected]

Party!

We talked with Matty today about his journey into the world of ASMR and how he used what he learned as a recording artist and marketing manager to propel his career forward. His YouTube videos regularly receive over a million views, and major brands are starting to notice.

Thanks for stopping by Matty!

Salem is Awesome.

Few people start movements that become pop culture references and New York Times best-selling books. Kelly Williams Brown did both with her book Adulting.

She shares with us all of the reasons you should definitely avoid writing a book, and also what to do if you decide you still need to.

She also talks about everything she feels makes Salem an amazing place to live and grow a business.

Enjoy!
