Charlie welcomes Joseph Alcantara, a Home Furnishings Expert, and a four-time Million Dollar Memory Maker to the podcast. Joseph recalls his years of experience with the Company, from overcoming difficulties and adversities, to celebratory moments and achieving incredible success. Joseph shares his perspective that his specific circumstances of adversity actually worked to be the best thing that ever happened to him.
Joseph recalls some of his favorite memories at the River, including participating in the Company gala and getting to meet Inky Johnson when we unveiled our Company's Purpose Statement at our Leadership Summit, as well as the challenges with liquidating a store but then the benefits of relocating to a brand, new store that has become the talk of the town. The work can be hard and challenging, but always dynamic, rewarding, and interesting.
He gives advice on how to succeed on the sales floor, what to do when adversity comes your way, the importance of goal-setting, and how to ensure you win the mental game.

Joseph discusses the pride he shares in helping the Augusta store grow two designations from Silver to Platinum.
Joseph's story of Thriving this year is one of going forward and continuing to progress regardless of the circumstances. And he tries to follow the advice of you reap what you sow. His message of positivity will resonate with any new hire starting on the sales floor.
Joseph's advice: True to our Company's name (Broad River Retail): Rivers are sometimes calm and sometimes rocky, but enjoy the ride and cherish every moment. Our company truly cares for its Memory Makers as it cares for its Customers. And, this is not just a stop; this can be a career at the River.
Quotable from Joseph: "The harder you work, the luckier you get."
