I recently took a Meyers-Briggs test and discovered I'm an ENFP. That pretty much means I crave creativity and freedom more than just about anything. Many marketers are like this--we prefer to put our nose down and be creative which means we sometimes don't give as much attention to other aspects of business. This is especially true for the financial side of business.
Darryl Lyons is a small business owner and financial expert. We talk what marketers and business owners need to pay attention to when it comes to financial and business decisions.
And the big question ... Are you done yet?

For Jeremy Miller, branding is deeply personal. When he joined his family IT staffing business, he found the company in distress. The industry was changing all around them and he and his team had to make changes or close the doors. After trial and error, Jeremy realized that it wasn’t the sales team or processes that were no longer working, it was their brand.
Jeremy has interviewed thousands of CEOs and business owners and profiled hundreds of companies across dozens of sectors to find out what it takes to create a sticky brand.
Listen to Jeremy’s story and his amazing advice in this episode.
Jeremy's book, Sticky Branding: 12.5 Principles to Stand Out, Attract Customers & Grow an Incredible Brand, was written as a branding playbook to allow companies to go through the steps of building a brand.

Two years ago they were everywhere. Social media “gurus”. The people that were experts in it all. Jay Baer recently said that if anyone claims anything is “dead”, you should run from them as fast as possible. I’m not saying that the Social Media Guru is dead, but it may have one foot in the grave.
According to guest Ahna Hendrix, social media is becoming very deep. When she started only a few years ago, you could be an expert in all areas. Today it’s not authentic to say you’re a social media professional and not focus on one core network.
We discuss the importance of working with experts that focus on certain areas of social media marketing and how she built ARCH Digital Agency with this in mind. “The Avengers” of digital marketing.
We also talk about the joys and trials of being an entrepreneur.

Why Do Most Start-ups Fail? The top reason? They make products no one wants.
This comes from a recent Fortune article titled, “Why startups fail, according to their founders,” and it illustrates why research is important. It is easy to get wrapped up in doing what “I” want to do and fail to give a lot of thought to who I need to serve in order to ensure my business is successful.
