🎯 Lee’s BEST Piece of Advice for Wantrepreneurs and Entrepreneurs

"Don't give up. You could fail 10 things and start over. Just don't give up. You will get something out as long as you stick with it."

📢 Memorable Quotes

• “If you're calling a business and nobody answers the phone, you're going to keep looking... You can lose somebody in five minutes and honestly if they're actively searching for something, you could lose them after seconds.”
• “As much as I fought it kicking and screaming the entire way here, I am such a fan of the wellness niche that I'm in... My life is so much easier in one niche.”
• “It's like a spider's web. The more information we have out there that lead back to your website, you're going to get more, more and more info and then it slowly kind of transitions back to your website to bring a customer in.”

💡 Actionable Takeaways

• ✅ Stop sending paid ad traffic to your homepage. Create a dedicated, conversion-focused landing page for every single ad campaign you run.
• ✅ Set up a "missed call text-back" automation today. This simple step ensures you never lose a hot lead because you were busy.
• ✅ Export your list of past customers. Craft a simple reactivation email with a special offer to bring them back in the door this month.
• ✅ If you're a generalist, commit to a niche for the next 90 days. Focus all your messaging and marketing on that single audience and track the difference in your results.

🎯 Nadine’s BEST Piece of Advice for Wantrepreneurs and Entrepreneurs

“Don’t go it alone.” 

📢 Memorable Quotes

• "Your niche will find you as opposed to you finding your niche if you listen hard enough and if you're open enough." – Nadine Keller
• "To have a bigger impact, we need that revenue... The more revenue we bring in, the greater impact we can have on the world, the more clients we can and people we can help." – Nadine Keller
• "If we can have the intention, the genuine intention to help them, then it releases all of that fear that we have around selling." – Nadine Keller

💡 Actionable Takeaways

• ✅ Re-evaluate your signature offer. Is your program or service long enough and structured to deliver a true transformation? Price it based on the profound value of that transformation, not just the hours you put in.
• ✅ Ditch the "long game" for a week. Focus exclusively on "short game" lead generation activities that build know, like, and trust quickly, such as direct outreach, speaking on podcasts, or engaging in highly relevant online communities.
• ✅ Reframe your next sales call. Go into the conversation with the sole intention of understanding the person's problems and aspirations. Detach from the outcome of "closing the deal" and focus only on being of service.

Tired of the "move fast and break things" mantra leading to broken products and unhappy customers? This episode is your antidote. We sit down with Megan Maloney, a 20+ year Quality Assurance (QA) veteran and founder of Maloney and Associates, who has built a career on making sure good products see the light of day. Megan unpacks why "quality" isn't a stuffy corporate term, but a vital business strategy for earning trust and scaling successfully. She reveals how her experience, from the military to major corporations, taught her the power of asking the questions everyone else is afraid to, and why your attitude is more valuable than your technical skills. This is a masterclass in building things right, leading with integrity, and developing the resilient mindset you need to thrive.

💡 What You'll Take Away For YOUR Business

• How to define "quality" for your own product or service and set a standard that actually works for your business.
• Why your willingness to ask the "obvious" or "stupid" questions in meetings is actually your entrepreneurial superpower.
• The truth about AI in business: How to leverage it as a powerful tool without letting it tank your quality by missing crucial business context.
• A simple framework (the Kanban board) that you can use today to visualize, prioritize, and conquer your business and personal projects.
• The #1 trait to look for when hiring your first employees that has nothing to do with their resume or experience.

📝 About Megan Maloney 

Megan Maloney is the dynamic CEO and founder of Maloney and Associates, a consulting firm specializing in quality assurance, test automation, and engineering. Her journey began in the military as a developer, where she discovered her true passion wasn't writing code, but breaking it to find defects before they ever reached a customer. With over two decades of experience, Megan has become an expert in building robust quality strategies for organizations ranging from large banks to agile startups. Her unique perspective is built on a deep understanding of business processes, a belief in the power of human connection, and the courage to ask the hard questions that drive real progress.

🎯 Megan’s BEST Piece of Advice for Wantrepreneurs and Entrepreneurs 

"Never give up... Celebrate the small wins... when you have a setback, take it and learn from it... get up the next day. Keep moving... and if you find something that works, work it more. And if you find something that doesn't work, let it go and let it go quick. I'm all about fail fast, fail fast."

📢 Memorable Quotes

• "In order to be successful, the people that work with me have to be successful. And that means they have to trust me and they have to believe that I have their back."
• "Attitude is everything. Everything... never forget that we're humans and the human touch matters and the personality and your attitude matter more than sometimes your skills."

💡 Actionable Takeaways

• Adopt the "Fail Fast" mentality. This week, identify one strategy, task, or feature that isn't delivering results and make the decision to cut it loose.
• Define your "quality" standard. Write down 3-5 specific criteria that define a "high-quality" outcome for your product or service.
• Prioritize attitude in your next hire. When interviewing, ask questions that reveal a candidate's desire to learn, their resilience, and how they handle feedback—not just what’s on their resume.
