109. Tyson Franklin on Building a Quality Podcast, Working Smart and Harnessing the Power of Relationships

People starting their own business often become wrapped up in the details. How many staff should I employ at the beginning? How many computers should I buy? Where should my office be? Oftentimes, however, the success of a business comes down to a larger sense of who you are and how you treat people.

Tyson Franklin — a business coach, podiatrist and host of the “It’s No Secret” podcast — has plenty to say about how up-and-coming entrepreneurs need to focus on several key elements: connections, delegation and attitude, among other things. On the latest episode of “Should I Start a Podcast”, Tyson and I chat about these topics and more, all framed within the idea of how podcasts can help business owners get ahead.

We also chat about:

• How to be a “legend in your own lunchbox”
• How podcasting helped Tyson refine other parts of his career
• Why there is always room to improve, no matter how old you are
• How to work smart, not hard
• Why you need to prioritise certain clients over others
• The importance of a disaster plan
• How being kind to his landscaper helped Tyson land new business
• Why it’s sometimes important to cut negative people out of your life
