If you are a small business owner, you know that sometimes things do always go well from a customer service standpoint.
You are bound to drop the ball and disappoint some customers. You might miss an order, run late, or even offer an overall bad experience. Sometimes you get away with it because your existing customers are patient with you, but this can eventually run you out of business.
Recently, I experienced such an unbelievably bad experience from a new hairstylist that I thought it was a teachable moment for other small business owners.
Listen in to this experience and the three key learnings we can take from this, including what small business owners should do when they let their customers down.
On a side note, we celebrated our 17th wedding anniversary last week. It's been quite a journey full of ups and downs, but if we were to start all over again, we wouldn’t want to do it any other way.
Tune in to hear of the surprise Eddie had for me on our anniversary and why this was one of the happiest moments of my life.
Key Takeaways:
- What in the world (03:49)
- My horrible hairstylist experience (08:53)
- 3 key learnings from my bad experience (24:01)
- Our 17th wedding anniversary (29:46)

The Copeland household finally got hit with Covid. This is not how we planned to start the year, but…it happened.
Luckily for us, we didn’t get major respiratory issues and didn’t need hospitalization.
This is an important episode as the Covid cases are skyrocketing here in California and the entire country. Many people have their travel plans disrupted or canceled. It’s easy to get angry or even bitter at this situation.
However, we share our story and how we pushed through to encourage you in whatever situation you are in. It might be Covid or another setback you are facing, but it will all come to pass.
We are not always in control, even with the best-laid plans. Rather than being angry when things don't turn out how we wanted, it’s better to surrender to what is not in your control.
For business owners, if Covid hasn’t already impacted you, chances are that it soon will. We share some good tips on how to push through when this happens.
Listen in 🎧 to hear what happened to us and how we dealt with the situation.
Key points discussed:
- What happened to us (02:00)
- Why it’s important to share our story (05:01)
- What in the world (15:25)
- Testing positive for Covid (21:39)
- Reach out to people who are isolating (25:32)
- Janelle’s friendship resolutions for the new year (26:24)
- Join the Pusher Society (32:17)

A new year offers a great opportunity to reflect, reassess and reset your major goals in life, whether you choose to do it through new year resolutions or some other way.
As we prepare to enter 2022, Eddie and I have prepared some tips to help you prosper in the new year in your career or business.
These tips are centered around making more money so that you can then invest and live the life you want.
For many people working a job, making more money is something they only achieve from a raise or a promotion.
But Eddie and I believe that building wealth will take much more than a raise at a job. Your salary is only a means to open up more opportunities for you through saving and investing.
Having held corporate leadership jobs and operated a business, we offer you a new perspective on how you can prosper in 2022.
Tune in to hear our perspective and what we believe will set you apart from the crowd in the new year!
Key Takeaways:
- What in the world - Slapping the sh*t out of Eddie! (04:39)
- Gaining a new perspective in the new year (12:43)
- A salary is a means, not an end (17:47)
- How to distinguish yourself in the workplace (27:23)
- Always do more – opportunities are created (37:35)
- You gotta know the game (41:41)
- Figure out your tax situation (42:35)
- Tips for business prosperity (44:11)
