If you're looking for outside of the box marketing ideas to build your business, then you might want to consider speaking.

No, this isn't about traveling the world getting on stages and speaking in front of thousands of people.  

This is really about first tapping into your local market to work on a 20 minute, informative speech, and starting to build your business in ways you might not have thought of before.

Jeff Klein of The Speaker Co-op stopped by to talk about the first steps of coming up with your speech, how to be prepared, and who to call to get in front of your next audience.

In this week's episode I'm talking about what it really takes to run a seamless business.  Just like with anything in life it requires mastering the fundamentals, and constant trials.

Meredith Hill has an incredible story of starting from a successful career on Wall Street.  She found herself as an analyst on Wall Street making really good money.  When a baby came in Meredith's life, she thought a lot about what she wanted while she was on maternity leave.  What she realized was that she loved working, but she just didn't love what she was doing.

A year after that leave Meredith made the decision that she was going to follow her passion.  A year later, she decided she was going start her own travel business, and specifically travel to Africa.

Meredith was able to sell that business, and has now started two other businesses all related to the travel industry.  She teaches people how to build a business around being a travel expert!

Happy 100th Episode!  

I'm getting open and honest about what I've learned as I approach a year in my business.  

I go in depth about my 3 lessons learned, and what you need to do in order to get your business finally started, or make it grow to that level you always dreamed of!

As entrepreneurs, too many time we put our needs on the back burner, as we're in building mode.  However, that ends up back firing because sluggishness and being tired all of the time takes over, and suddenly we're not performing where we should be.  

Adria DeCorte of AdriaDeCorte.com gave some great tips as to why it's so important to make sure you're eating your best, and how as a busy entrepreneur, you can make sure you don't slip.

My first marriage was a casualty to entrepreneurship.  I put my head down, and hoped things would get better as I built my business to massive success.  However, when it was time to sell, I was staring at a complete stranger.  

Building a business is fun, but no matter what you're doing, you have to still remember those things that are most important to you, your relationships.  

Susie Miller came by to talk about how we can keep our relationships going, even while in start-up mode, and the little things you can do so you don't make the same mistake I made in my first business and marriage!

In this Friday segment, I talk about changes being made in my business, and the podcast.  I also give a tip one single thing that has made the most tremendous difference in my life and business.

Logos can be an incredible way for you to represent your business.  

However, with all the options of what you can get from $5 to thousands, it's hard to know where you should be spending your hard earned dollars.  

In this podcast we break down the questions you should ask, what you should expect, and the difference in what you get in something like Fiverr than going to a designer.

It may feel like in order to be a successful entrepreneur, you need to be really busy.  However, most of the time we're making it way harder on ourselves than it needs to be.  

Val Geisler of Aspire & Grow came by to talk about some great free tools to make your life just a little easier when it comes to being an entrepeneur.  She also gives some great tips on how to get the most use out of them!
