Today we have a very very special guest, we have Mr. Dan Duffy of Art of Words. If you have not seen Art of Words, we live in Philadelphia and Dan is in our area and his artwork is one of those pieces where all those creations everybody has seen.It's almost always viral about 3 to 4 times a year, he's always putting out really great work. What's so amazing about Art of Words is that nobody can look at it and come away unchanged. And here is why: because his artwork is designed with some of the most historic, whether it's scenes from history, whether its sports specifically baseball, legends stadiums, skylines, you name it. As you look at the artwork, and as you look literally as close as you can look, every part of it the design is made of words, hands - Art of Words. And so what we're gonna do throughout this podcast is we're gonna try to create a very visual experience where I can get some of those artworks and as we're talking, I'm gonna try do some overlays and have some things move over top. I was so so excited to bring this to you.

Welcome to episode number 5 of Thought Leader Magazine. Today we have Eric Harter, CEO and founder of Rapid CPAP. Rapid CPAP is a full-service medical equipment company that specializes in high tech respiratory care.

I’ve known Eric for years and he is one of those guys that when you get into a room, he’s ideas overload. What I have found over the last 19 years of running a business is that I tend to find these people in my life and Eric is one of those people that we gravitate towards each other and when we do, it’s usually a very awesome.

I’m really inspired by the company that Eric has grown, and I thought it’d be a good idea to bring him on the show and talk about how he is disrupting his industry.

In this episode, Eric Harter details the value in staying true to who you are as a business owner, as well as adapting to a changing business environment.

Brynne and I have known each other for several years now. Back in the day before LinkedIn was owned before by Microsoft our paths crossed and I remember walking away thinking, wow, this is what a thought leader really is.

Brynne is gifted and in her space and doesn’t try to be things that she’s not. She is excellent at knowing how to dominate LinkedIn and other sales training approaches.

Listen as Brynne Tillman explains how to use your company’s social platforms as a way to generate valuable leads.
