In our latest episode, we take listeners behind the scenes of a company to uncover how each department; finance, sales, operations, HR, marketing, IT, leadership and more- works, communicates, and ultimately fuels growth. Rather than operating in silos, a successful organization functions like an ecosystem, where decisions in one department echo through the entire company. We break down what each team does, how they depend on one another, where friction happens, and how the most effective companies build alignment, shared goals, and data-driven collaboration. Whether you’re a founder, leader, or team member, this episode delivers a practical blueprint for building stronger internal systems and transforming departmental chaos into a unified, scalable business machine. Tune in now to learn how real companies make their departments work together, not against each other.

Sitting on private-company shares with no IPO on the horizon? In this episode of The Biz Show, we unpack practical exit paths—company buybacks, private secondary sales (including platform-led deals), tender offers, assignments of notes or SAFEs, block trades, and M&A-driven liquidity—plus the legal checkpoints that actually make transfers close (private resale exemptions under Sections 4(a)(1) and 4(a)(7) and Rule 144A, information packs, and legend removal), the pricing reality of secondary discounts, and a step-by-step sequence to go from “checking your documents for transfer limits and consent rights” to lining up buyers, running rights-of-first-refusal, papering the deal, and a final tax check.

On the next episode of The Biz Show, we wrap our two-part negotiation series with a powerful capstone featuring Harmony Woodington, C.Ht.—relationship strategist, certified hypnotherapist, neuroscience-based coach, and bestselling author. We connect the tactics from our last two episodes (price, timing, and authority objections) to the real drivers behind deals: the nervous system, subconscious patterns, and emotional regulation. Harmony shares practical resets to turn fear into curiosity, defuse tension, and keep you persuasive without pushing. If you’ve ever felt a negotiation slip because “the vibe changed,” this one upgrades your operating system—so you can navigate objections with clarity, empathy, and results.

Stop losing deals at the last mile.

In this week’s episode of The Biz Show, we unpack the 10 most common objections—what they mean psychologically and exact lines to respond without sounding salesy.

Top 10 + quick counters

“Too expensive.” → Reframe to outcomes/ROI.

“No budget.” → Phase the rollout; align to cycle.

“Need to ask my boss.” → Map the approval path together.

“We’re happy now.” → Cost of inaction for 12 months.

“Not sure it’ll work.” → Pilot w/ success criteria.

“Bad timing.” → Low-lift start (<4 hrs this quarter).

“Competitor is cheaper/has X.” → If price equal, which wins? Then trade scope/terms.

“Contract terms worry us.” → Tackle true risks; adjust indemnity/termination.

“Implementation headache.” → White-glove plan + named CSM + 30-60-90.

“Doesn’t solve our real problem.” → Re-diagnose; agree on KPI and pause clause.

Pro moves: Treat objections as data, label the concern, use calibration questions, trade—don’t concede, and make the next step tiny (pilot, stakeholder call, redline review).
