30 Jan 2024 | 164. Encore: Joel Stevenson – Finding Success in Sales | 00:39:06 | |
Connie's motivational quote for today is by – Napoleon Hill, “If you can't do great things, do small things in a great way." Okay, I am a Napoleon Hill geek and love his quotes. The one I’ve chosen for today’s show is no different.
For the past 40 years, I have lived my personal and professional life working on or creating micro habits that I could learn, execute, master, build upon, and then rinse and repeat with the next skill I needed to grow to get me to the next level of success.
I have found that building small things upon each other is when magic happens. Developing expertise in anything is impossible without ongoing practice and effort—a simple concept.

30 Apr 2024 | Cold Email, Sales, and Life as a Digital Nomad With Adam Rosen (episode 175) | 00:43:15 | |
“Great things are done by a series of small things done together.” – Vincent van Gogh. After COVID, I was forced to pivot and create an entire digital library of training and new business outreach. Understanding this new world of online automation, branding, and client outreach required a huge learning curve.
So what did I do? I buckled down, took many online classes, hired several coaches who had played in this space for over a decade, and hired people to help me create emailing sequences.
Fast-forward: The value of being digitized was life-changing for me and my business, from growing my client base to creating tremendous flexibility to working and teaching from wherever I wished.
About Adam Rosen: Adam is a world-traveling entrepreneur who sold his first tech startup in 2019. He now leads eocworks.com, which helps startups get sales through cold email, and thenomadcloud.com, which supports entrepreneurs who want to explore the world.
This episode gives a peek into how to grow a business and live an adventurous life simultaneously.

29 May 2023 | 132. Atomic Habits with James Clear | 00:36:39 | |
Connie's motivational quote today is by Stephen Covey “Our character is basically a composite of our habits. Because they are consistent, often unconscious patterns, they constantly, daily, express our character.”
Do you have any bad habits? Come on, you know what I am talking about! If we know what is considered a good versus a bad habit, why do we still have so many that often seem to be out of control. What if I told you there is an almost foolproof way to really change up your behavior patterns - Do I have your attention?? Is this even possible?
Today James Clear and I are going to discuss his book Atomic Habits: An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones. We are going to break down how to actually change or form a habit that will stick.

30 Jan 2023 | Achieving Goals Quickly Using Solutions That Stick With Amanda HarNess (EP. 115) | 00:39:05 | |
Connie's motivational quote for today is by Lawrence J. Peter: “If you don't know where you are going, you will probably end up somewhere else."
Watch this episode on YouTube.
Check Out These Highlights: Today’s quote actually made me pause and reflect on my own business journey over the past 21 years and knowing where I was going was not always clear or easy to define!
I know for me as a business owner, finding the next step is important yet I have also learned that moving forward, even if a misstep is still good and allows for easier shifts and pivots. It also allows for learning and defining what is working and what changes are needed along the way.
So is there an easier way to grow a business using goals to support long-term solutions that stick?

Connie's motivational quote for today is by – Brian Cornell “Technology is going to disrupt the future of work, perhaps sooner than we thought. We are exploring everything from AI to VR, but we see no substitute for our stores and employees. We focus on building talent and personal service.”
Since starting my career in the 80s, I have learned to go from analog tracking to digital over four decades. Things seem to change quickly since AI has hit the main street with ChatGBT, Salesforce and other CRM systems, Email Automation, and so much more.
The question I get asked frequently by the sales teams at the organizations where I work is, will their personalized service become obsolete because AI is so readily available?

YouTube: https://youtu.be/SjbCoENJYzM
Check Out These Highlights: I love speaking about sales and communicating effectively with our prospects and clients. Of course, there is another side to sales which is sales support. Often that support comes through back-office staff and call center folks.

So how do we build behind-the-scenes support? Glad you asked!

21 Feb 2023 | The New Sales Process: Adjusting To Today's Transparent World With Gail Kasper (EP. 118) | 00:38:52 | |
Connie's motivational quote for today is by Mark Roberge: “It’s no longer about interrupting, pitching, and closing. It is about listening, diagnosing, and prescribing.”
Watch this episode on YouTube.
Check Out These Highlights: Lately, I feel like many sales trainers and consultants speak about building deep-rooted, transparent relationships as if this is a new concept in sales.
I know 40 years ago, when I started my sales career in the financial service industry, there was a ton of pitching and pushing going on without much interest in the actual person, family, or organization that was being sold to. It made me sick to my stomach that this type of bad selling was happening all around me.
I still see some of this same behavior, except now, buyers can do a ton of research, read reviews, and buy from a place of more confidence due to their research. So what's changed in sales today, and how do we close more deals quicker in this transparent world where the customer has researched everything? Glad you asked!
About Gail Kasper: Gail is a two-time TEDx speaker, TV host, sales trainer, and author who has worked with leading and billion-dollar companies across the country. She has reached millions, appearing nationwide on various morning and new shows, sharing her strategies.

29 Nov 2021 | 058. Jim Niswonger - A Counterintuitive Marketing Approach to Get More Sales | 00:39:29 | |
Connie's motivational quote for today is by – Andrew Davis, “Content builds relationships. Relationships are built on trust. Trust drives revenue.” YouTube: https://youtu.be/NjcXA3y3iqk Check Out These Highlights: I love this quote! Building relationships through trust are mandatory to be successful in business! As I look back to 2020 and review all the changes that occurred rapidly, like many business owners I too needed to pivot hard and fast! I created an entirely new division within my company. One that offers businesses growing sales results, and sales and business coaching, via the digital world and zoom. To my surprise many of the lessons I had learned being in business 20 years of offering live training, coaching, speaking, networking, etc., all hold true in the digital world too. The funny thing is, my strength is in helping businesses make more money, grow their business and client base all without being icky, sleazy, or manipulative. Digital messaging, marketing, lead magnets – not my jam! So what did I do? I reached out to my vast network and asked for help and was so fortunate to meet my guest. Working with him has helped me craft my messaging that represents me, not generic marketing scripting. He helped me with my messaging and content for my free 90-minute workshop. The results have been extraordinary!

Connie's motivational quote for today is by – Carlos Ghosn, “Every single time you make a merger, somebody is losing his identity. And saying something different is just rubbish." I remember that in the ‘90s, banks underwent a huge metamorphosis of banks merging. We called it “merger mania. “ Being part of the transition team for two different mergers, I found that with open communication, even if nothing new needed to be shared, sharing that nothing new was happening played out well for the employees, fearing they would lose their jobs. They felt included and part of the changes happening around them. The other critical thing was to begin to share the values and culture of our organization so the employees could start to feel safe and look forward to being part of the new, bigger organization filled with new opportunities. So, are merging companies the right move for organizational growth? That is the topic for my guest and me to discuss today.

About Eric Allan Eaton: Recently, Eric shared with me that his bank has had four organizations merge into one this past year...Yikes!
Eric is a hardworking, honest, determined, and self-motivated individual. One of his missions in life is to leave the world in a better situation than he found it, and he enjoys seeing friends and family rewarded for hard work. He has over 15 years of branch and operational banking experience and two decades of stage and voice acting experience.

13 Nov 2023 | 153. Gabe Lullo – Strategies for Sourcing New, Qualified Lead | 00:35:50 | |
Connie's motivational quote for today is by – Fergal Glynn, “A bad habit appearing at many companies is to put reps in the unenviable position of trying to hit their quota by feverishly working through as many opportunities as they can. But this isn’t necessarily the ideal solution. Data-driven sales teams are finding that it is usually more effective to spend more time on qualification earlier in a sales cycle in an effort to only deliver the best opportunities to highly paid account executives.” I know this quote is lengthy, but the message is clear. I have been teaching many Business Development classes for my various clients.
When I say that Business Development is 90% preparation, they all laugh. By the end of the course, the light bulbs go off. Planning and strategizing before you even begin outreach is paramount to saving time, money, and effort for every salesperson, team, or business owner.
We think it’s a waste of time. For 40 years, I have strategized, reviewed, and self-evaluated my skill development and planned every sales call before speaking with a prospect or client. It works!

Watch this episode on YouTube.
Check Out These Highlights: I am so excited today to speak with my guest, Park Howell, about sales and how we can leverage and perfect our business story using the three forces of the story - agreement, contradiction, and consequence that our primal, pattern-seeking, cause-and-effect, decision-making buying brain loves.
Pushing your offer is just not cool to do because it’s icky. Using a framework like Park will share with us is brilliant and makes sales growth easy to accomplish!
Park and I will dig into how heart-centered sales leaders can use the ABT (And, But, Therefore) agile narrative framework to clarify your stories, amplify your impact, and simplify your life.

Connie's motivational quote for today is by – Alexa Von Tobel, “A good financial plan is a road map that shows us exactly how the choices we make today will affect our future.” Being a Financial Advisor and Wealth Manager for over 18 years before starting my business helped me understand the importance of having a financial plan for my personal and professional lives.

So, in the world of marketing, we need to be sure we have a marketing plan that supports the strategy or growth plan of the business. Since I am a sales expert and not a marketing expert, I hire people to help my business with these strategies. So how do you build quality marketing support?

24 Sep 2024 | Preparation and Follow-up to Fast Forward Sales Success with Connie Whitman (episode 193) | 00:20:12 | |
“Don’t be afraid to give up the good for the great.” — John D. Rockefeller. The most significant areas where I see salespeople and sales teams drop the ball are at the beginning and end of the sales process.
Step 1 is preparation at the beginning of the sales process. To put this in perspective, when we are doing our external business development efforts, 90% of successful BD is preparation. Yes, 90%. What I see with the teams I work with is that they feel so busy that they forfeit prep time and go out and wing it.
In a recent survey - 82% of decision-makers (prospective clients) feel that the salespeople they deal with must prepare for the sales calls and show up ill-prepared. Interestingly, we cannot afford to show up unprepared and skip the extra work beforehand. When we prepare, the process accelerates, the prospect or client is more likely to say yes, and we feel a surge of confidence. It's like a flow of energy that makes everything seem effortless.
Let me share what I feel should be prepared before any sales conversations or efforts occur.

13 Feb 2024 | 166. Chet Lovegren – Building High-Performing Sales Teams | 00:45:27 | |
Connie's motivational quote for today is by – John D. Rockefeller, “Don’t be afraid to give up the good to go for the great.” Good is the enemy of great, yet sales leaders hire the wrong team members or hire correctly but don’t provide long-term support.
I have more stories than I’d like to admit here where I’ve had the worst of the worst sales leaders throughout my corporate career. Hiring the right people, developing the right people, and building a high-performing team isn’t rocket science. Yet, many organizations go through the churn and burn revolving door instead of trying the development route. Why?

23 Jan 2024 | 163. Justine Beauregard – How to Get Paid Well for Your Expertise | 00:44:32 | |
Connie's motivational quote for today is by – Bruce Lee, “Knowledge will give you power, but character respect.” I love talking about sales. Most of you have been following me for a while and know my motto for sales is selling through love, care, and respect. Respect is probably my most important word to live and sell through!
We have one of the most important jobs in the world. Serving and helping people with our products and services that somehow help their lives, careers, or businesses. I want people to feel better after speaking with me than before they met me. This matters greatly! Sales and respect are two words that should be married together in your vocabulary.

14 Aug 2023 | 141. Jeff Goldberg – Increasing Your Sales in Any Economy | 00:40:44 | |
Connie's motivational quote for today is by – Robert Collier, “Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out. “ After finding this quote for today's show, I began to reflect on what small efforts have created success in my business and life. Whether intentional or intuitive, when I started my business and sat down without any idea of how I would teach others how to be successful in sales and, more importantly, by selling through love, care, and respect.
Do you know what I discovered? All the small habits I had developed over my career in corporate when combined every day, added to a logical path to success. That was a very cool revelation, and my 7-Step Sales process was defined, and my #1 International book was born many years later. Keeping things simple works, and today my guest and I will discuss sales success to help you choose your next simple step forward.

14 May 2024 | Sales Are About Being Resilient and Getting Back Up with Akeem Shannon (episode 177) | 00:40:40 | |
“The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.” — Nelson Mandela. I love this quote. If we didn’t continue to rise after we fail or fall, we wouldn’t have innovation, growth, new opportunities, and potentially a better life. Most people think it’s only about having the ability to achieve X, Y, or Z. The reality is resilience, and the choice to keep getting up and moving forward is very powerful. Especially in sales and business growth.
YouTube: https://youtu.be/w371gew_RFc
About Akeem Shannon: Hailing from St. Louis, Akeem is the creative mind behind Flipstik. This gravity-defying phone accessory not only earned him a spot on Shark Tank but also caught the attention of the legendary Snoop Dogg.

Check Out These Highlights: Being in business for over 20 years, I am busy running my business, and sometimes we business owners forget that our lengthy to-do lists will never compete!
As I am aging, I have thought about succession planning to either sell my business in the next decade or my kids choose to take it over. Either way, I need to infrastructurally as well as organizationally have a plan that allows me the opportunity to step aside and cash out.
Some interesting stats: 70% of business owners are looking to fund their retirement from the value of their business - yet only 2% know how much their business is worth. When the owner and their business have an actionable plan, it makes the business worth it no matter when the business owner leaves.
About Christine Nicholson: Christine and I are going to discuss the topic of generating real value that business owners can extract to fund a better retirement AND leave a thriving business for the next owners. It all starts with letting go.

09 May 2022 | Be A Magnet, Not A Hook With James H. Lee (EP. 81) | 00:33:36 | |
Being in business is not for the faint of heart. The amount of noise in the marketplace is daunting and finding where you fit in, in business, can be a challenge. I believe that if you choose to do what everyone else is doing, you are likely to get the same results. The big question is, “are those results the results you are personally or professionally looking to achieve?”
So what’s the key ingredient in standing out and shining your light? Be yourself! Only you can do you! You deserve to attract a following of loyal customers who are fanatical about you and your business.
YouTube: https://youtu.be/tPJ_yi3tPx0
Connie's motivational quote for today is by – Mark Victor Hansen, “The magnet principle says like attracts like. You’ll attract to you the people, circumstances, events, money, and resources you need to accomplish your goals.”
About James Lee: Jim and we are going to discuss how he made the leap from traditional sales in financial services to become radically successful in an unconventional niche.

Today James Clear and I are going to discuss his book Atomic Habits: An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones. We are going to break down how to actually change or form a habit that will stick.
Do you have any bad habits? Come on, you know what I am talking about! If we know what is considered a good versus a bad habit, why do we still have so many that often seem to be out of control. What if I told you there is an almost foolproof way to really change up your behavior patterns - Do I have your attention?? Is this even possible?
Connie's motivational quote today is by Stephen Covey “Our character is basically a composite of our habits. Because they are consistent, often unconscious patterns, they constantly, daily, express our character.”

As I look back over my corporate career, hiring the right people was a necessity for the success of the sales division I managed.

30 Jul 2024 | Lead Generation and Email Marketing That Works with Amy Kuphal (episode 187) | 00:37:31 | |
“The secret to change is to focus all of your energy, not on fighting the old, but on building the new.” - Socrates. To make your email marketing efforts successful, one of the major components is building your list. Essentially, we are always doing two things: fueling our email marketing “machine” with leads and working to improve the conversion rate of our machine (through improving our messaging and leaning into relationship-based marketing messages). One of the more common ways to fill your list is through having a lead magnet.
I truly enjoy having marketing experts on my show; sales and marketing are very different. Since I’m no expert in Marketing strategies, I always learn a tip or two or three from my guests on this topic. Lead generation is critical for keeping our pipelines full so we can continue to connect and help our ideal clients using an effective sales process. Leads come in, and if our sales process aligns with our marketing message, sales come out.

06 Dec 2021 | 059. Nina Froriep - Video Marketing Made Fun + Easy | 00:39:39 | |
Connie's motivational quotes for today is by – Sarah Tavel, “Obvious realization: Content that starts as video, can be downgraded to audio (in your pocket or as podcast), which can be converted to text (via transcription or blog). But content can’t flow in another direction. Therefore, to maximize the audience for any content, start with video.” YouTube: https://youtu.be/MWGcnaPsAVg Check Out These Highlights: A few years ago, Mary Lou, the owner of webtalkradio.net was coaching me on how to become a better host and make my podcast interesting, fun, and engaging. Then one day she said to me, “you need to start recording your show using video.” As if in a time warp, I couldn’t hear anything after that. In my mind I was thinking, “did she just tell me I need to record the show using video? So people could see me! That’s crazy and not happening.” After a couple of minutes of her sharing the benefits of using video, of course I buckled and embraced her recommendations. That was about 3 years ago. Best advice ever! I have become so comfortable on video that when COVID hit being on Zoom was like breathing. I created a digital class and yes you guessed it, I use short videos to teach the content of our weekly group coaching calls. Basically, for most businesses using video isn’t an option it’s a must do. Do not fear, I have an expert to break this down into actionable pieces so you too can create some binge-worthy videos. About Nina Froriep: Nina Froriep has seen it all from the early 90’s on independent features, to big national TV commercials, corporate mega-shows, and (Emmy award-winning) documentary films, including one she produced and directed, called Abraham's Children. Today she’s super excited to enable business coaches, consultants, and service-based entrepreneurs to grow their businesses with fun + easy video marketing so they can attract their ideal clients.

28 Dec 2020 | 007. The Energy of Money | 00:40:26 | |
What is your relationship with money? Are you thinking, “Connie, I love money, I love spending my money, and money is great!” Or are you thinking, “hum, that’s a very good question.

09 Oct 2023 | 148. Jeff Blackman – How to Peak Your Profits and Always Hit Your BULLSEYE | 00:38:41 | |
Connie's motivational quote for today is by – Jim Rohn, “One customer, well taken care of, could be more valuable than $10,000 worth of advertising.“ After finding this quote for today's show, I began to reflect on the money I see many companies spend on advertising versus the value put on deliverables after new sales are made.
Too often, I see everyone striving to bring in new business; they need to remember to follow up and show up after new pieces of business close. Essentially, business goes out the back door as we work and focus on the front door.
We need a balance of constant new business development activity and nurturing and delivering great solutions to our existing clients.
I have been blessed to live off referrals for most of my sales career. It’s not magic or luck. I over-deliver, grow my relationships by playing to the long game, not looking for transactional business, and remain relevant and valuable to ALL my past and present clients.
About Jeff Blackman: Jeff is a Hall of Fame speaker, bestselling author, award-winning success coach, broadcast personality, and lawyer. He heads Blackman & Associates—a results-producing business-growth firm in the Chicagoland area.

What if I told you there is an almost foolproof way to really change up your behavior patterns - Do I have your attention?? Is this even possible?

23 Jul 2024 | AI and the Upcoming Augmented Technology Revolution for Business Growth with Ethan Robert Casin (episode 186) | 00:41:06 | |
“When deploying AI, whether you focus on top-line growth or bottom-line profitability, start with the customer and work backward.” – Rob Garf. This quote is essential for sales teams to understand that sales have always been about building relationships and the human touch or experience. At least, that has been the source of my success.
Early in my career, four decades ago, we didn’t have computers or any type of technology. We were full-on analog. Yet computers, the Internet, and other technological advances have helped salespeople function at a higher and more efficient level. So, should AI be any different than these past innovations?
AI is a tool we need to utilize and understand. So why is AI hyped right now, and how does it offer a path to simplifying business processes? Today, we will also discuss how data and AI accelerate us into the next industrial revolution and how businesses can adapt to it properly.

Connie's motivational quote for today is by – Hendrith Vanlon Smith, Jr., “If you want your business to be resilient, you gotta improve cash flow and widen margins.” I love talking about money with my guests.

13 Jun 2022 | Three Secrets To Effective And Engaging Meetings With Mamie Kanfer Stewart (EP. 86) | 00:36:12 | |
Connie's motivational quote for today is by Tim Ferriss: “Focus on being productive instead of busy.”
Watch this episode on YouTube.
Check Out These Highlights: Mamie Kanfer Stewart and I are going to discuss how to stop wasting time and draining energy in unproductive meetings.
As I observe my own productivity challenges, I realize that most of us spend so much time in meetings discussing what needs to get done versus actually doing what needs to get done. This reminded me of the time my husband came home from work (before remote) one Friday night and shared with me that he calculated the amount of time he was in meetings for that week. Wait for it!
The number of hours in meetings that week was 35! 35 hours, holy smokes! Of course, I asked him, “Who does the work, and when does it actually get done?” He answered that he wasn’t sure. Shocking the amount of time, we feel the need to be in meetings for optics or to show we are an important player in the organization or the need to just feel needed.
Studies have shown that unproductive meetings are one of the greatest forms of waste in business today. Not only do they hamper productivity, but they also drain energy and diminish morale. Learn three simple strategies to make all your meetings effective and engaging.
About Mamie Kanfer Stewart: Mamie is the Founder of Meeteor, the author of Moment: Creating Effective, Engaging, and Enjoyable Meetings, and the Host of the Modern Manager podcast. Meeteor helps people thrive at work through effective collaboration, with a special emphasis on effective meetings

14 Dec 2020 | 003. Dawn Mullarney - Success Comes Easy When You Become a Connector of People | 00:39:31 | |
Subscribe and listen to the Heart-Centered Sales Leader Podcast on your favorite podcast streaming service or on YouTube. New episodes post every Monday. Listen to Connie dive into new sales and business topics or problems you may have in your business. Do you care about your prospects and clients? You know, really care about them; versus telling prospects or clients about how great you are and all the amazing tings you are going to do for them. Reality check…no one cares about you and your greatness. It has to be all about the person you are speaking with! Today's guest is Dawn Mullarney, a Trust Officer and Trust Marketing Specialist in the Wealth Management Division at State Bank of Cross Plains in Wisconsin.
I recently met Dawn through a networking group and after speaking with her, I knew she was my kind of person! As we chatted I realized she and her boss Dan Savage (I will interview him in the next episode) are both the exact kind of team (people) I want to spotlight on this show.
• How Dawn has achieved her level of success at a fairly young age? • What she has learned over the years that severs her and her client? • What sales mean to Dawn? • What made her focus more on a sales role versus an operational function? • What‘s her why when working with clients/prospects? • Her mentor Dan – what things has he done to help Dawn be successful? What kind of leader is he? What skills she has learned from him that will help everyone excel? • On your LinkedIn Dawns bio has that she is a connector. What that mean to her and why? How she connect swell with others? What things she is doing to be a connector? | |||
10 Sep 2024 | Moving Forward Together in a Fractured and Divisive World with Eric Allan Eaton (episode 192) | 00:40:47 | |
My motivational quote for today is by – R. Roosevelt Thomas, Jr. “Let's stop believing that our differences make us superior or inferior to one another. A diverse mix of voices leads to better discussions, decisions, and outcomes for everyone.” - R. Roosevelt Thomas, Jr. I love this quote and find its relevance extremely timely in today’s divided world. My opinion is right; yours is wrong, which is an awful approach to communication and collaboration. Diverse thinking creates friction, which is a really good thing! This is where conflict resolution happens, allowing for innovations and combined thinking, which helps us end up in a better place than we started. The reality is that we all have our opinions based on our filters and perspectives, which are actually very limited. This means that most of life happens in the grey areas where diversity and collaboration can create practical and valuable change. Yet, many avoid the grey area so that they can be right.

11 Jan 2021 | 010. Tony Guarnaccia - HCSL - How to Run a Profitable Business | 00:41:20 | |
Why do businesses fail? Is the business owner or CEO to blame? How does a business leader keep their business moving forward and thriving beyond surviving?

Whether it was post 9/11, during the Great Recession or amidst massive company acquisitions, Tony has helped businesses navigate the uncertainties and emerge stronger on the other side.

Connie’s motivational quote for today is by Napoleon Hill: “Strength and growth come only through continuous effort and struggle." s
Watch this episode on YouTube. Podcast Super Summit Link.
Check Out These Highlights: As I searched for the right quote to kick off today's show, this one immediately created an image in my mind of the caterpillar struggling out of his cocoon to become the beautiful butterfly that can stretch his wings and fly because of the struggle and effort to tear through the chrysalis.
I know that I and many of my clients keep looking for a quick fix or answer. In the past 40 years, I have learned that there is no quick fix or magic answer to help us with our business and career growth. It takes effort like the caterpillar coming out of the chrysalis. So how do we build this business strength so we can continue to fly?

02 Jan 2024 | 160. Kevin Hancock – Shared Leadership, Dispersed Power, and Deep Employee Engagement | 00:42:22 | |
Connie's motivational quote for today is by – Ryunosuke Satoro, “Individually, we are one drop. Together, we are an ocean.’” Recently, have you read any articles about new leadership skills needed to succeed? Leadership skills like agility, empathy, respectful communication, listening to employees, and more. As I reflect, leaders from around the globe are waking up to what true leadership should have been all along and that we have been blindly using the model used throughout corporate cultures, at least during my 40-year career. I believe that not having a tangible and duplicatable leadership culture will cost organizations millions of dollars in lost productivity and, ultimately, lost revenue. So, what is a great model to follow? I’m glad you asked!

21 May 2024 | Roadmap from Business Failure to Success with Steven Pemberton (episode 178) | 00:44:45 | |
“Success is stumbling from failure to failure with no loss of enthusiasm.” – Winston Churchill. Boy, this quote hit home for me. I know I have failed many times in my life. We see quotes like this when we are in a crisis or facing failure and think, BS, I failed, I’m not good enough, or I don’t deserve the success. And there lies the issue—our minds! The negative record player that is on repeat, saying we aren’t good enough for X, Y, or Z. What I have learned is that in the face of failure, I try not to let failure, whether for reasons under my control or not, kill my drive to keep going and move forward.

20 Feb 2024 | 167. Eric Boggs: Cold Emails Aren’t Dead Your Approach Is | 00:40:55 | |
Connie's motivational quote for today is by – Andrea Mignolo, “I want to do business with a company that treats e-mailing me as a privilege, not a transaction.” When COVID hit, and many business activities stopped, the one thing that continued was email campaigns. Now that things are kind of back on track, are email campaigns still relevant?
This is an essential question for all types of businesses to think about because our email lists are potentially our long-term lifeline for continued business. So, how do we create value-added emails so people not only open them but take action to investigate and buy?

Guest Eric Boggs: Eric is the founder and CEO of RevBoss, a lead-generation company focused on outbound prospecting. He has spent the last 20 years of his career building SaaS companies and advising successful CEOs (Device Magic, Kevel, UserVoice, Ignite Social, and many more).

19 Dec 2022 | The Power Of Your Business Story With Kristin Spencer (EP. 111) | 00:40:00 | |
Connie's motivational quote for today is by Lisa Cron: “Story, as it turns out, was crucial to our evolution -- more so than opposable thumbs. Opposable thumbs let us hang on; a story told us what to hang on to.”
Watch this episode on YouTube.
Check Out These Highlights: Lately, I have noticed that having a digital presence is a necessity for your career or business. It’s a glimpse into who you are, what you do, what you stand for, and your core values both personally and professionally.
It is important for people to see you as a person instead of just a business. If you really want to earn their trust, you need to harness the power of your personal story. You can always find a way to weave personal details and feelings into the business stories you tell, and when you do, they will work much better at creating points of human connection.
For me, it is always about the human connection and how we can show up to support our ideal clients. So our stories matter and can impact your career or business growth!
About Kristin Spencer: Kristin is a bestselling author, ghostwriter, copywriter, and founder of the business writing firm Literary Symmetry. She helps business owners by writing their stories for them (in their voice), refining their offers, and building the foundation of consistency they need before they can make visibility count. Having written more than 30 books and edited many others, it is her professional passion to make sure that the business owners she works with are able to change the world for the better, one story at a time.

Connie's motivational quote today is by – Ben Bernanke, "The ultimate purpose of economics, of course, is to understand and promote the enhancement of well-being." When I was in college many years ago, I double majored in Economics and Finance. Yes, you can call me a dork! Even though I was unsure of what I wanted to be when I grew up and I knew that finance and economics were two important topics that I needed to understand to support my future business career. Fast forward 40 years and understanding these two huge topics has served me well. I am excited about my conversation today, with my guest expert, Hunter Hastings. We are not going to have a boring conversation about economics. We are going to dive in and discuss a business’s brand, the secret of value creation, and economics in business.

07 May 2021 | 027. Kevin Hancock - The Business Of Shared Leadership | 00:44:51 | |
Connie's motivational quotes for today is by – Stephen Covey, “An empowered organization is one in which individuals have the knowledge, skill, desire, and opportunity to personally succeed in a way that leads to collective organizational success." Watch it on YouTube: https://youtu.be/vdHwLjitXTE Check Out These Highlights: Would you call yourself a leader who empowers or micromanages your team?

Micromanaging is dangerous and ineffective, yet so many leaders fear letting go of control and empower their teams. Why? About Kevin Hancock: Kevin is the CEO of Hancock Lumber, one of the oldest companies in America and six-time recipient of the ‘Best Places to Work in Maine’ award. In 2010, at the peak of the national housing and mortgage market collapse, Kevin acquired a rare neurological voice disorder called Spasmodic Dysphonia (SD).

02 Jul 2024 | Cultivate a High-Performing Sales Team to Achieve Outstanding Results with Ryan Charterina (episode 184) | 00:43:28 | |
"To say my fate is not tied to your fate is like saying, 'Your end of the boat is sinking.'" - Hugh Downs. I have always been part of a team, even as a business owner. I have learned, probably the hard way, that I can’t achieve success alone. Both while raising my kids and starting my business, I needed experts to help me understand business, technology, administrative work, etc.
Last year, I sponsored a book called Ready, Connect, Grow. The authors who contributed to the anthology were from different countries, walks of life, and businesses. We only created a #1 Best Seller by supporting the book's publishing process.

About Ryan Charterina: Ryan works in three major pillars: helping business owners transform their businesses and lives through implementing EOS, a content production company called Blink Studios, which allows professional services businesses to create and deliver content to generate brand awareness and leads. And most importantly, he has a family of three: his wife Brit, their son Dean, and their dog Finn.

13 Aug 2024 | The Untapped Potential of LinkedIn for Business Strategies with Indrek Põldvee (episode 189) | 00:32:44 | |
“The sale most often goes to the most interested party.” – Steve Chandler. Being interested and curious about what our clients need today and in the future is critical to our sales success. So, how do we show that we care, are curious, and are interested in helping our ideal client? One way is to use resources available to us to spotlight our genius, experience, and level of care. One resource that I see either underused or not used correctly is LinkedIn.
It's a powerful resource; too many people use it, and it comes across as icky and pushy.
YouTube: https://youtu.be/TX4xpAnxyCQ
About Indrek Põldvee: Indrek is recognized as an Estonian LinkedIn guru with a wealth of experience in sales, marketing, and coaching. His journey and expertise are not just limited to his success but also include transforming businesses through LinkedIn strategies.

18 Jun 2024 | Common Myths around Selling with Jackie Joy (episode 182) | 00:40:55 | |
“This is not hard sell-it’s heart sell. Good questions get to the heart of the problem or the need very quickly, and the buyer doesn’t feel like he or she is being pushed” – Jeffrey Gitomer. Selling from the heart and building long-term relationships were intuitive for me and helped me quickly stand out from my peers in the financial industry. By creating a solid foundation and reputation, I could generate ongoing referrals, and my close ratio was off the charts because I was a trusted resource before I met the referred client.
It’s simple, yet many people who need to engage and sell as part of their responsibilities still consider sales icky and sleazy. My motto is: If you are not selling from love, care, and respect, you need to stop!

24 Oct 2022 | Why Courage May Be The Critical Sales Quality We Need? With Dr. Nadia Brown (EP. 104) | 00:39:14 | |
Connie's motivational quote for today is by Tiffani Bova: “How you sell matters. What your process is matters. But how your customers feel when they engage with you matters more.”
Watch this episode on YouTube.
Check Out These Highlights: WOW, is this quote true for me! When I started my sales consulting firm 21 years ago, I sat down and reflected on what made me so successful as a sales representative. The bottom line, I’m honest, in integrity all the time, and view my role in sales as educating the client to make an informed and profitable decision.
After reflecting, I realized I had always used a 7 Step Sales Process that logically and emotionally built deep client relationships that have lasted over the long term as well as providing referrals to my client’s friends, family, and other business people. After 40 years of being successful in sales, it all boils down to building life-long relationships!
My philosophy is simple, I call it the hat trick of sales. It’s a win/win/win formula so everyone in the equation comes out a winner.

20 Jun 2022 | Making the SHIFT To Thriving Boss With Talmar Anderson (EP. 87) | 00:40:35 | |
Connie's motivational quote today is by Jack Welch: "Before you are a leader, success is all about growing yourself. When you become a leader, success is all about growing others."
Watch this episode on YouTube.
Check Out These Highlights: As I write the introduction for this show, I reflect on the many bosses I have had during my 20-year corporate career before opening my business 21 years ago. I've had the gamut of good, bad, and ugly bosses. Lol! Sadly, the majority were not very good leaders, and I felt like I had to fend for myself.
I remember my first sales manager, who trained me by going out on prospect calls with me. After the appointments, he would yell at me in the car, pointing out everything I didn't say or said incorrectly. There was never any positive feedback. Ever!
Finally, after working as a financial advisor for about a year, I sold my first million-dollar life policy to a small business owner. When I got to our office in the morning, I was so excited to share my success, and this is what he said, "why didn't you sell a two-million-dollar policy?" He was never voted boss of the year!
