604 Uncle Marv Live

Join me as I unpack the latest in IT business strategies and the sheer hilarity of the Florida Man Games. Listen in as I share the surprising turn of events that led to the Games becoming a major spectacle in St. Augustine and provide a rundown of the quirky competitions that ensued. But that's not all; I also discuss the exciting announcement of our Amazon gift card winner. The conversation then shifts to important business matters, including a CEO transition at Syncro and a declaration of March as Money Month, complete with expert guests to guide you through financial do's and don'ts.

Dive into a personal narrative as I recount a near-fatal choking incident that led to an ER visit. This story not only explains recent changes in my demeanor but also paves the way for my increased focus on health, which listeners can explore further in my new Unhealthy Podcast. Amidst the tech talk, I also extend an invitation to my colleague Eric to join me for a live-streaming adventure at the Florida Man Games, showcasing our community's lighter side.

Finally, the discussion turns to a crucial topic for any IT business owner: maximizing profits through strategic pricing. I share billing strategies learned from my attorney clients and discuss the importance of valuing your services without seeking permission to raise rates. I recount a personal experience where a standoff over my rates with a tenacious client became a watershed moment in my business, teaching me the value of standing my ground and the power of respectful business relations.
