Does it come from the top-down, mission statements, or something completely different? How do you encourage a healthy company culture without mandating it? On this episode of Inspired Insider, you’ll hear from entrepreneur and business leader, Jason Myers. In his conversation with Jeremy, Jason opens up about the apps developed at Bold Commerce, why they sponsor “Hack-a-thons,” how they’ve created a healthy company culture, and much more. You’ll want pen and paper ready as you dive into this fascinating episode featuring Jason’s story! When was the last time you were truly impressed by an organization's culture? We are not talking about the vending machines, the dog-friendly work-environment, or beer on tap but the deep-rooted company culture. Let’s face it - even if a business looks fun to work for - that doesn’t mean that the culture is healthy! A healthy culture occurs when team members act in the same positive way when their leader is present as they do when they are absent. You don’t drift into healthy company culture - you have to prioritize it and fight for it! Many leaders teach that culture starts from the top. When it comes to the creation of a business - you’ll find that the culture often takes on the traits of the founder or in Bold Commerce’s case - the founders. Bold Commerce prides itself on its healthy company culture is because the four founders have a robust and positive working relationship. You can’t have disfunction at the top of an organization and hope that it won’t spread! How would you describe the culture at your company? Where can it improve?  What is the legacy that you’ll leave behind? Were you able to accomplish great and worthwhile achievements in your career? Did you build something that will last beyond your lifetime? Too often, business leaders get so focused on making their idea a reality that they fail to see how their actions are impacting those around them. Jason and the leaders at Bold Commerce are hyper-aware to the needs and abilities of their team. He says the proudest moment in his career is witnessing how his organization has provided stability for his employees.

On this episode of Inspired Insider, you’ll hear from entrepreneur and innovator, Josh Elizexe. In his conversation with Jeremy, Josh opens up about why he created Snow, how he’s built and expanded the brand, challenges he has faced along the way, and much more. Have pen and paper read, you don’t want to miss a minute of this powerful episode featuring Josh’s story!  Who has helped you in your career? Did you have a family member who you could go to for business advice? Were you fortunate enough to find a mentor who could help guide you in your professional development? Josh Elizetxe is thankful to have made the right connections with the right leaders who encouraged him to pursue his entrepreneurial ambitions. While Josh can point to one or two key mentors he has been able to connect with in person - there are a ton who mentored him from afar. Don’t let your inability to get in the room with someone keep you from learning from them - watch their talks and read their books!  When it comes to building a brand - you’ve got to think of the long game. Do you just want to build something that can turn a quick profit or do you want to build something that will go the distance? Josh could have put all his efforts into making a quick and easy brand dedicated to oral health, but he opted to take the road less travelled - a specific brand focused on premium products. Learn from Josh’s example and build the brand that you can be proud of! What can you learn from Josh’s story?  One of the best ways you can grow a brand that can soar past your competitors is to become an expert at marketing. Seriously! If you know your audience inside and out and you know how to communicate to them - you’ll be unstoppable. Unfortunately, too many business leaders take the easy route and neglect the benefit that great marketing can have on their business. What are you waiting for? Dig deep and get to know the folks you want to serve with your product or service - if you approach them with the language they use - they’ll reward you for it!  When you build something like a premium oral care brand - you take pride in how the business runs - Josh Elizetxe is no exception. While he could have gone through multiple rounds of external fundraising efforts with Snow - Josh decided to bootstrap the company. What does it take to build a business that is so independent and self-funded? According to Josh, it takes a compelling vision to stay on mission and headed in a specific direction. With his solid start - Josh is now able to reach out to specific investors who can help him take his business to the next level of growth.  Resources Mentioned on this episode https://www.trysnow.com/ Tuft & Needle Intro Music by Kidd Russell Sponsor for this episode Rise25’s mission is to connect you with your best referral partners and customers.

If you had to sum up your message in a concise sentence or phrase, could you? On this episode of Inspired Insider, you’ll hear from business leader and entrepreneur, Stefan Georgi. In his conversation with Jeremy, Stefan opens up about his career as a direct-response marketer, how he tests headlines, common mistakes most brands make, challenges he has faced in his career, and much more. You don’t want to miss a minute of this powerful episode featuring Stefan’s unique insights!  Who has helped you on your career trajectory? Have you had the fortune of networking with well-connected leaders who have mentored you or have you had to chart your own course through trial and error? Thankfully, Stefan Georgi had some pivotal mentors and peers who invested in his growth over the years. Stefan isn’t shy about giving credit where credit is due - he’s also dedicated to giving back and investing in the next generation of leaders. What can you learn from Stefan’s approach to business and leadership?  Did you know that video is the fastest growing medium for getting your message to the public? It’s true! Just take a look at the rise of YouTube, Facebook Live, and Instagram. More and more - the primary messaging platform for many businesses is the use of video. Do you have a plan to adapt with the new media wave, or will you get stuck in the past? It all comes down to who you are trying to reach! If your target audience is retiring boomers, the best option might not be video - but if you are trying to reach stay-at-home moms then you might be on the right track!  Crafting a compelling and memorable message is no small task. Do you think the likes of Nike’s “Just Do It” message was developed overnight? Too often, we take these memorable messages for granted and fail to appreciate the hard work that goes into finding the right message for an audience. In his career as a direct-response marketer - Stefan has learned that the key to crafting the right message is to research your audience. Do you know their likes and dislikes? Do you know how they describe their everyday problems and passions? If you can learn how your target audience communicates - you are well on your way to crafting the right message.  Let’s face it; life has a way of forcing us to slow down and pay attention - this can be in the form of the perfect sunrise or unexpected news. The real question is - what will you do when things get dialled up in your life? Will you rise to the occasion or will you shrink and retreat? When Stefan heard the news that his father was ill and wouldn’t have long to live - he made sure to rise to the occasion and make the most of the time he had left. Remember - all of your success and fame won’t mean anything if you don’t take the time to care for your loved ones!  Resources Mentioned on this episode Stefan’s website www.Redoxconsulting.com Copy & Funnel Accelerator TURTLE PEAK Justin Goff Free Copy Of Stefan's Sales Letter Outline + His Private T&C Mastermind Presentation Intro Music by Kidd Russell Sponsor for this episode Rise25’s mission is to connect you with your best referral partners and customers.

The truth is - if you wait for your big break - chances are, it’ll never come. Don’t wait for opportunity and success to fall in your lap - go out and make it happen! If Manuel would have waited for the right moment to arrive - he would still be doing drugs in Puerto Rico.

The transformation that Manuel experienced sounds like something that only Hollywood could come up with, but it’s completely true! Manuel was stuck in a six-year pattern drug addiction and despair until his father called him on his 19th birthday.

The plan worked, and Manuel was able to get completely free of drugs - to stay away from that life, Manuel chose to stay away from Puerto Rico altogether.  Did you know that the key to business success is grabbing the attention of your audience? From Nike to Apple - leading brands know that if you can keep people focused on your brand and talking about it - that’ll translate to sales. For years Manuel’s father wanted to build a media channel that would support his business selling supplements - unfortunately, this plan didn’t work out. Eventually, Manuel stepped in and suggested to start creating content for YouTube to gain traction and continue to build his father’s audience. The YouTube plan worked out, and the subscriber numbers skyrocketed!  These days - Manuel is focused on helping business leaders like you expand your reach and connect with your audience. From Manuel’s perspective - Facebook Advertising is the wave of the future. Gone are the days where commercials and billboards reign supreme - now is the era of marketing on Facebook and other social media channels.

If you want to make sure your business stays ahead of the competition - reach out to Manuel and learn how to adapt his innovative approach!  Resources Mentioned on this episode AGMagency.com ManyChat M.Me/theninjamarketer The Facebook Marketing Ninja Podcast  www.manuelsuarez.com Rich Dad, Poor Dad Intro Music by Kidd Russell Sponsor for this episode Rise25’s mission is to connect you with your best referral partners and customers.

Today we have Mark Aramli the inventor and founder of BedJet. Bedjet is the world’s first rapid cooling and heating system just for your bed.

Is there a best approach that most business leaders use or is it all up to chance? On this episode of Inspired Insider, you’ll hear from business leader and innovator, Mark Aramli. In his conversation with Jeremy, Mark opens up about how he came up with the idea for the Bedjet, why he decided to appear on Shark Tank, what it took to validate the Bedjet, and much more. You don’t want to miss a minute of this fascinating episode featuring Mark’s story!  Where does an innovative idea like the Bedjet come from? From the complexity and the amazing technology involved, you’d think that the idea for a device like the Bedjet came from a technology firm. The truth is - the Bedjet was born out of Mark’s desire to tinker around with a device that would solve his personal dilemma of temperature control in his bed. After he landed on a prototype - Mark decided to get wider input by sending the device to his friends and family - they agreed, Bedjet was a hit!  Once he had the product figured out - Mark had to go to work getting the product exposure in the marketplace. Running a small startup - you can imagine that Mark’s brand awareness budget was almost $0. Thankfully, they were able to get a Bedjet into the hands of the brilliant and talented marketing agency - The Harmon Brothers. In just a few months - Mark had a fun, entertaining, and engaging video he could use to promote the Bedjet. You can view the video that helped put the Bedjet on the map the Bedjet website! As a small startup - Mark took every opportunity he could to raise awareness of the Bedjet and connect with more people who would enjoy the product. The desire to improve the Bedjet’s visibility led Mark to several rounds of funding on Kickstarter. With the successful Kickstarter campaigns, the Bedjet got on the radar for the folks at Shark Tank. The funny thing is - Mark had never even seen an episode of Shark Tank before the show contacted him! Jumping at the chance to appear on Shark Tank - Mark packed his bags and attended the tapping - all to no avail. The Sharks were convinced that the Bedjet would bomb - thankfully - they were wrong.  Even though the Sharks didn’t believe in the Bedjet - Mark knew better. He was convinced that the Bedjet was the solution that many people all over the world needed to make sleep a more enjoyable experience. Today, the Bedjet is selling like never before. The Bedjet is listed on Amazon, but Mark has been pouring more resources in his direct to consumer efforts, and he’s seen it pay off! Mark’s story goes to show you that you don’t need the stars to align to bring a successful product to the marketplace - you just have to make something people want!  Resources Mentioned on this episode www.Bedjet.com The Harmon Brothers on Inspired Insider Intro Music by Kidd Russell   Sponsor for this episode Rise25’s mission is to connect you with your best referral partners and customers.
