We also talk about the importance of having money in the bank and how it can buy you time when things become uncertain. Too many people focus on sales instead of profit.

Do you have perfect balance in your life when it comes to running your business, taking care of your family, and taking care of yourself? Perfect balance is hard to achieve. If we are aware of what we are doing and where we are going, it's possible to combine these three areas of our lives to make each stronger. Rocco Carriero is the author of Three Cords Approach: To Life And Wealth Management For Business Owners. A book about striking the perfect balance of these aspects of life and finances. Rocco A. Carriero is a comprehensive Wealth Advisor specializing in working with Business Owners, CEOs, and Entrepreneurs.

He's been featured in major financial publications like Wall Street Journal, Forbes, and Fortune. He's appeared on Fox and NBC. We talk about how a cord will snap if it's not given attention. All three aspects of our lives need to be maintained, just not all at the same time. Rocco shares the importance of being aware of the important things you need to work on and scheduling them. Big picture thinking is one of the most important things an entrepreneur can do. We talk about the difference between vision and mission and how our decisions align with our values. Rocco shares insights on how we can use the three cord concept to keep our finances, businesses, and lives moving in the right direction.

It's that time of the year again when everyone starts setting their goals for the next year. I don't know about you, but I have a bit of a love/hate relationship with goal setting. Necessary, yes. But how do we set big goals without setting ourselves up for possible disappointment? Like so many other things, we self-employed business owners need a different way to look at goal setting.

One of the best ways to differentiate ourselves and our business is to tell a unique story that is memorable and makes us stand out. Gair Maxwell is the author of Big Little Legends: How Everyday Leaders Build Irresistible Brands, a book about flipping brand dynamics to attract customers. He shares real-life stories that helped ordinary brands and leaders create extraordinary results. Gair is a former broadcaster who had an award-winning radio and television career in Canada. He's also a history buff who loves legends, myths, and stories. He's now a brand strategist and keynote speaker. Gair has worked with organizations like Apple Specialist Marketing Group, Caterpillar, NAPA, and Virginia Tech. He's also shared conference stages with business icons like Richard Branson and Gene Simmons. He's here today to talk about Big Little Legends and how to create a story that can make your brand legendary. We unpack how brands become legendary. How did the Mona Lisa become so famous? The painting was stolen from the Louvre. All of the press created the fame this painting holds today. We talk about the story you are going to tell and also the story others will tell about you. Your story doesn't have to be about yourself. You can also use the seven plots of overcoming the monster, rags to riches, the quest, voyage and return, comedy, tragedy, and rebirth as filters to determine if your idea is a story. This episode will have you thinking about what your legendary story can be.

Who doesn't love the coffee business? In the US, the growth of coffee chains is fascinating. Michael J. McFall began his career with BIGGBY® COFFEE at the original store in East Lansing in 1996 as a minimum-wage barista. He's now co-CEO, and over the last twenty-two years, he and business partner Bob Fish have created one of America's excellent specialty coffee chains. They have over 250 stores open in 9 states. He's also the author of Grind: A No-bullsh*t Approach to Take Your Business from Concept to Cash Flow—a book about common sense strategies for turning a start-up idea into a positive cash flow business. We talked about starting a new business and why the franchise model worked for them. Michael says that products don't usually sell themselves. You need to be willing to sell your product for as long as it takes. You've got to be obsessed with generating revenue. He's also involved in personal growth and development. As a leader, you need to meet your company where it needs you, not the opposite. We also talk about the importance of being able to compartmentalize when starting a business. We touch on impatience, enthusiasm, and the process of due diligence on yourself. We also learn incredible mission-critical things like the six-hour rule, where franchisees spend six hours a day on the front end for the first year. Another fundamental premise in Grind is that looking through your business from a cost-cutting lens isn't advantageous to your growth and customer happiness. If you obsess over taking care of the customer, everything else takes care of itself. Making people happy and believing in what you do creates an opportunity to ask your customers to promote you. We also talk about avoiding complexity and not making things more complex than they need to be. This episode is full of smart ideas, processes, and attitudes to grow a business beyond your expectations.

Being self-employed can be exciting and fulfilling. It also can have ups and downs, especially when starting. That is why changing your thinking to an extended game plan can help alleviate some of the stress and uncomfortable moments. It also allows us to be more realistic about our projects and aspirations and prevent panic and throwing in the towel too soon. Dorie Clark is the bestselling author of Entrepreneurial You, Reinventing You, and Stand Out, named the #1 Leadership Book of the Year by Inc. magazine. Dorie is also a coach, consultant, keynote speaker, and executive education teacher. Her latest book, The Long Game: How to Be a Long-Term Thinker in a Short-Term World, is about long-term strategic thinking to create interesting, meaningful work and lives. This book is so appropriate now because the world needs to think long-term. Dorie shares her framework to help people strategically plan and persist. Frequently we underestimate how long something will take and risk giving up too soon. Business can be a test of patience, but there comes a time when things start to click. It can be incredibly powerful when we get to this place of momentum. We talk about growth and the deception phase, where it feels like things aren't progressing, but they are. An example would be how a ten-year overnight success happens. We discuss what having a long game strategy, and high-level view entails. We discuss white space, focus where it counts, optimizing for interesting, extreme goals, and more. Dorie shares so many interesting insights on work and life.
