Welcome to episode 153 of the master delegator podcast. Today, Kristy Yoder is joined by CEO Alejandro Girón from Circle audio company, with a podcast for brands and entrepreneurs' expertise. The two sat down to talk about building a trustworthy team during the first year and how a CEO can encourage and support their team to perform at their highest levels.Episode Highlights:04:34: How Alejandro got into podcast introduction09:28: Starting and hiring a VA13:33: Finding the right people and building a team for your business21:03: Communicating and giving feedback to your team31:43: From freelancing to founding your own business36:23: How Alejandro delegates to his teamBuilding a Team During First Year in BusinessOne of the typical problems a CEO has in their business is building the right team. Either they find someone who can perform the job but charges too much, or they discover someone who charges little but takes a while to learn the job. Alejandro's first step is simply taking his time to find who he thinks fits perfectly to his business based on their resumes and interviews, then hire. The second is building a relationship or connection with them because he believes they must align their values and get along to work well with them. He even mentioned that it's always better to work with good people, genuine people you know will do their best with anything they're doing. Third, of course, the credentials and learning their soft skills. Lastly, putting them in the role, they best fit with.About Alejandro GirónAlejandro Girón has been producing podcasts since 2015, helping entrepreneurs in the content-creation, particularly with podcasting.

Welcome to another special episode of the Master Delegator Podcast as Kristy Yoder sat down with not just one but two CEOs who aren't just business partners but also friends. Join this episode as Ashley Meripol and Katie Toscano talk about their friendship, journey as business partners, and how to automate and delegate to maximize your time in running your business.Episode Highlights:05:00: The friendship and entrepreneurial journey of Ashley & Katie07:40: Growing to a six-figure business09:50: How Ashley & Katie automate their business12:23: Automation in marketing14:08: Having a system and process in place16:11: Automation through Dubsado17:40: How to automate then delegate22:08: Simple automation tools for business owners23:07: Challenges in creating “Cabot & Main”27:17: How you can easily automate your business28:20: Why do business owners not automateThe Importance of Automation and Delegation to Maximize Your TimeThrough automation, business owners can grow and sustain their businesses. Automation is an application of technology to produce products or services that minimize human intervention so that they can save more time and energy and avoid feeling burnt out, such as sales, manufacturing, transportation, and utilities.However, a fraction of a business that automation cannot handle, like branding, requires a human mind. That's the time when business owners should delegate. Like automation, delegation allows a business owner to work less but still manage their business to achieve the sustainable stability they want. The difference between the two is that automation is done through technology alone, but delegation is through the trust and skills of your team in the business. At Cabot & Main, Ashley and Katie use automation and delegation because they believe that growing a company should be well-organized, joyful, and fun rather than rushing from one urgent task to the next.About Ashley and Katie Ashley Meripol and Katie Toscano are southern natives that have been friends for more than ten years. They have been working together in operations and the corporate world and combined their small business experience to co-found "Cabot & Main."

Today's guest of the Master Delegator Podcast Episode 151 is Dallas Travers of The Hive Company, which helps Business owners build a business they're genuinely proud of. Dallas talks about overcoming procrastination and overwhelm through the "Peloton Approach."Episode Highlights:05:24: Overcoming procrastination and feeling overwhelmed07:07: Why business owners lack clarity and need to be clear-headed08:14: The Peloton Approach09:33: Creating your ideal week calendar13:15: Turning your calendar into a vision board and time-blocking17:15: Dallas's initial approach to feeling overwhelmed18:38: Hiring a VA and delegating to overcome feeling overwhelmed21:37: Having a working relationship with your VAThe Peloton Approach to Overcome Procrastination and Overwhelm Irrational fear, frustration, self-doubt, and anxiety are all overwhelming. It forces you to procrastinate because we prefer pleasure to pain. In the entrepreneurial world and as business owners, we believe that we can handle everything in our company, which causes confusion and leads us to ask ourselves, "When can we start?" Where do we begin? Is this thing going to work? It's like reading a book's last chapter before starting it.Procrastination is simply a bad attitude, this is why changing your attitude toward work can help you get more done. Of course, it's easier said than done, so Dallas made a way to support herself to stop procrastinating and feeling overwhelmed; she calls it the "Peloton Approach." Dallas owns a bike that every time she walks past it, reminds her to be committed to prioritizing her physical health and mental health. Because prioritizing your physical and mental health helps you eliminate daily fatigue or feeling burnout in your day-to-day tasks. About Dallas TraversDallas Travers is the CEO and Founder of The Hive Company, which helps entrepreneurs build their businesses. She's also the Creative Career Coach, founder of the Thriving Artist Circle, and author of the award-winning book the tao of show business.Learn more about her here:Website: https://dallastravers.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DallasTraversFans/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/DallasTraversBizMentor/ Are you in need of any assistance?

Welcome to today's episode of the Master Delegator Podcast, where  Kristy Yoder is joined by Nick Fogle, the founder of Churnkey. Nick is an Economic undergraduate student turned awesome and experienced software engineer-entrepreneur who has founded numerous businesses. Listen to this episode as Nick shares his journey to his current level of success in the entrepreneurial world. He also talks about the importance of learning from adversity and its application to business ownership.Episode Highlights:04:05: Nick's entrepreneurial journey05:35: Learning how to code06:58: The beginning of Wavve.co11:30: Why Nick sold Wavve12:58: Learning churn rate and building Churnkey18:59: Learning from mistakes25:05: Nick's newfound vision28:21: Why businesses have a high churn rate32:53: Practical ways to reduce churn rate35:15: Why are people leaving your company, and the benefits of sending out surveys37:31: Learning the importance of delegation as a CEOLearning From Adversity And Its Applications Toward Business Ownership Everyone finds rejection and failure difficult. In business, you must overcome adversity without falling apart. Nick has overcome many obstacles in his current position as a serial entrepreneur. With a $ 250,000 school debt and 99% of his net worth tied up in his podcast software, Nick knew he needed to do something for himself and the people around him. Instead of letting adversity get the best of him, he studied Wavve's churn rate and built a new company. He established Churnkey, which handles heavy lifting and reduces churn, but Nick also understands that he can only do some things in the business, especially if there is more than one.

Louisa, who loves managing, started doing it more often for her clients and then used it to start her own business.Lucky for you, Louisa shared a few tips on how you can sort and organize your email inbox to help you get away from cluttered digital space and never-ending emails:Make Use of Email Management Tools - The easiest way to declutter and free yourself from unnecessary emails is by using an email management tool, like Leave me alone App. Basically, it's an app that allows users to roll up their favorite newsletters,  put all of them in one email list to read and block everything else that is unimportant.Make Use of Folders - Another convenient way to sort your emails is by labeling them and putting them in a folder where you can easily tell which emails you need to prioritize reading.Hiring an Email Management VA - Depending on how much time you're willing to spend on organizing your emails and how fast and efficiently you want them to get done, one best option is to hire someone to do everything for you, such as an Email Management VA. Instead of doing it all yourself, why not hire someone to do it for you so you can save money and devote more time to what is most important to you and your business?  About  Louisa HollingsworthLouisa Hollingsworth is an entrepreneur who helps overwhelmed business owners and mom entrepreneurs manage their email inboxes, get them to zero, and teach them how to keep it that way.

It's a great way to make your audience or customer take the next step of buying your programs. There's also a thing called The Tripwire Launch. It's similar to the Evergreen Launch; the only difference is you will not use a gift. Instead, you can use a high-value but low-cost program you have to make them buy more from you.The Challenge Launch - This method is about creating high-value content related to the thing you are selling for, usually five days long, paired in your Livestream. You're leading your customers to take your offers while in your Livestream.The Webinar Launch - Similar to The Challenge Launch, this method is used in Livestreams. First, set up a webinar where you can present your adding value offers in a much more personal approach.The Waitlist Launch - This method works by sending out a few weeks of free content related to your offer. It provides a way for your audience to get on a waitlist, where you get to engage with your most interested audience and sell them higher-priced products or programs.About  Amy LippmanAmy is a marketing strategist and Institute for Integrative Nutrition graduate.

Today's episode of the Master Delegator Podcast features Vikram Rajan of Video Socials, where he shares his journey and how he became an established entrepreneur. Vik shares valuable facts about how video blogging can help business owners grow their businesses in no time.Video Blogging to Grow Your BusinessDigital marketing is becoming increasingly important as the world revolves around technology. As most people now spend more time scrolling the internet, creating content is undeniably the most effective way to market your product or service. And, because creating content is more complicated than it appears, business owners do not have enough time to write articles about their company or create graphics to promote their product or service. The best way to sell your brand in digital marketing is to create content that creates a personalized touch, drives action, reaches people through exposure, and is much easier for your audience to enjoy. This is possible with a video blog, especially since social media platforms nowadays prefer videos over photos and articles, which the audience may find dull and not engaging.  About  Vikram RajanVikram Rajan, the co-founder of Videosocials.net, is also the author of 365 Marketing Thumb Rules and The Video Book. Vik has also presented in front of many networking groups like the American Institute of certified public accountants( AICPA), the National Network of Accountants, and NYC Bar Associations. Vik was also featured in the Wall Street Journal's Startup Journal and Entrepreneurship Magazine and was named a top 40 Rising Star by Long Island Business News in 2005.Learn more about her here:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vikramrajan/ Website: http://www.phoneblogger.net/ or http://www.videosocials.net/ Facebook: https://twitter.com/vikramrajan  Are you in need of any assistance?

Welcome to another episode of the Master Delegator Podcast as Danielle Mulvey, CEO of All In Company, joins Kristy Yoder today to talk about her journey as an entrepreneur and experiences on why and how to hire a 5-Star Employee. How to Hire a 5-Star Employee Danielle started her own business at a young age, thinking that hiring employees much more youthful than her would keep her mistakes hidden until she had a toxic employee who made her job as CEO hard. She knew she had to step up and ensure she hired the best, unlike one of the toxic people she had previously employed.Danielle decided she wanted to help other entrepreneurs avoid making the same mistakes she did. Here's how she hired a 5-star Employee:Finding A 5-star Employee is not that simple. In Every 7 potential candidates, only 1 is rated 5-star. Danielle uses that 5-Star rating system as an objective criterion to assess existing and new candidates.Assessing each candidate helps you find the perfect talent you need in your company. You need to understand where every candidate can grow to become a 5-Star rated employee. After the assessment, you can find which role they are perfect for in the company. As a CEO, you can customize and personalize the 5-Star rating system based on your recruiting role.About Danielle MulveyDanielle Mulvey was a former flight attendant who decided to own her business. She has been an entrepreneur for over 25 years and runs multiple companies with over $50 million in annual revenue. She is such a Profit First fan that she is certified as a Mastery-Level Profit First Professional.Learn more about her here:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/danielle-mulveyWebsite: https://www.profitfirstnation.com/ or https://theallincompany.com/ Are you in need of any assistance?

Linda Barutha joins Kristy Yoder on today's episode of the Master Delegator Podcast. Linda spent her career in corporate IT before becoming an online marketing strategist. Today, Linda shares her entrepreneurial journey as a CEO and why it is important to understand your role in your company to delegate to a virtual assistant efficiently and effectively.Your Virtual Assistant Is Not Your Business Coach Many entrepreneurs think that bringing a Virtual Assistant means having them do their company's strategy or business-oriented processes. They don't realize that the Virtual Assistant's job is to represent all of their ideas as the business owner and leader. Since everything your VA does is merely the behind-the-scenes work for your business, it is your responsibility as their leader to support them and ensure they can succeed. To do this, you should communicate your company's needs and wants, teach them your procedures, and give them feedback.About Linda BaruthaLinda Barutha has been a business owner for over 20 years. She did brick-and-mortar, Freelance Website Design, and Graphic Design until she discovered online marketing and became obsessed with SEO.Throughout her career, she has seen many people devote all of their marketing efforts to social media platforms without seeing any results.

Outsourcing Your Entire Podcast TeamBeing an expert in Podcast Production, Edwin Frondozo knows that he can't do everything alone. In this episode, Edwin shares how he became an expert by outsourcing his entire podcast production team and how he does it. KEY TAKEAWAYSThe first step is to list down all the tasks needed in the podcast production.Second, when you are done with the list of tasks, you can group the required skill-set; for audio, you need an audio engineer, a manager for the whole team, and an SEO expert to optimize your podcast show notes. Remember not just to hire one person to do everything in your production. It's always better to hire someone knowledgeable in specific tasks.The third step is not letting your team do everything without guiding them. You need to share your ideas and experiences with your team, teach them what you know, and vice versa; they will give their take on tasks based on their expertise. Teaching and showing your team how you want the task done by recording yourself and sending it to them also saves you time instead of going on the task every time you delegate.About Edwin FrondozoBefore becoming the co-founder and CEO of Slingshot VoIP, Edwin worked at IBM Canada and Nortel Networks within the sales and marketing organizations. He provided key insights on the business and technical benefits of the respective product lines he represented. Now, Edwin hosts The Business Leadership Podcast & Lives series, where he interviews many influential business leaders in North America about best practices and lessons learned in building a brand, creating high-performance teams, and innovating an entire industry.Learn more about her here:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/edwinfrondozo/ Website: https://www.slingshotvoip.com/ Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/edwin100x Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/edwin100x/ Are you in need of any assistance?

3 Easy Steps to Cut Your Business Launch Time in Half Starting a business isn't as hard for those with entrepreneurial genes in their family, skills, experience, and money. But still, for those who never got their business ideas off the ground, even the idea of sharing their ideas with people, is already challenging.And that is why Blaire and her company help business-minded people by sharing these 3 easy steps to start their business and launch in no time: Become official - Become official by registering your business accordingly.  Many people treat their business as a hobby, which is fine because they spend their time and energy on something they enjoy or are passionate about, but treating it as a hobby doesn't make sense if it remains a hobby. Find ways to attract clients consistently - After you've completed the first step, you must ensure that you continue to run the business until it becomes profitable. To do so, you must create your branding and strategy to market your product or service. Simplify and streamline your processes - You must set up your processes more simply and efficiently in the long run, such as delegating and outsourcing. Doing so will benefit you as the owner to focus on growing your business and becoming profitable rather than doing all things in business yourself, which can drain your time and energy in the company.About Blaire BrownBlaire Brown is a seasoned entrepreneur with experience running businesses, managing major contemporary fashion brands' marketing and public relations efforts, and writing.

How to Become a Master Delegator Managing two people, a dozen, and even a hundred can be as hard as a rock, especially when you are on your own. For Bobby, you can miserably manage some people if you don't delegate.Bobby recognized that he needed to improve as a leader. So he did that by mastering the true meaning of delegation, which is to trust his team more in their work and decision-making to help them develop a sense of responsibility and ownership in everything they do.Here are more tips for becoming a master delegator:Re-evaluate how you look at your team - Delegating isn't just about throwing all your unwanted tasks to your team. Delegation means allowing your team members to stretch out their abilities as part of Employee Development. When you allow people to grow by delegating to them, they feel trustworthy, which helps them be more confident in what they are doing.Think of your work as a tree - The most crucial part of a tree is its roots; in terms of tasks, roots are equivalent to the core tasks in your workload. Essentially, you must distinguish between root tasks that you must complete solely and stem tasks that you know other people can do and delegate to them. Later on, you'll see that by trusting and allowing your team to do those tasks, you were able to help them grow more leaves as a sign of their level of growth.Read "How to become a Master Delegator" By Bobby Powers to learn more about how you can master delegation today.About Bobby PowersBobby Powers' life revolved around books. Books allowed him to sit at the feet of some of the world's most brilliant thinkers and learn about business and leadership.

How to Achieve More By Doing LessAs business owners, we constantly try to look for something more as we grow. We envision not just getting to where we wanted to be but being proud of many more things. We do that by doing everything ourselves, whatever it takes for us to do it. But what if I tell you there's a way to achieve more by doing less?Here's how Felicia does it in her business:Take inventory of how you spent your time - To determine whether you are wasting time or making progress with what you're doing with your limited time.Make a list of the top 10 things you want to accomplish in a day - Categorize what you must do and focus on what you are passionate about to keep your fire to work alive.Delegate the things that you can - After categorizing the list of your daily tasks, you now know what you can do on your own and what you can ask for help. Delegation does not only help entrepreneurs to do what they enjoy doing in the business and have more time, money, and energy flow in their life. It also helps them feel great about giving work opportunities to people who want to achieve more in their lives.About Felicia SandersFelicia Sanders, a published inspirational author, and successful business owner, was born in Indonesia and found love in traveling worldwide.

Steps to Creating Your Unique Value Proposition Many people believe that creating a brand is simply identifying their target audience and raising awareness. But, for Jo, Brand is knowing who you are, what you are, what you do, and what you can do. Here are the steps to creating your unique value proposition to build a strong brand:Start with you - People say that when starting a business, looking for the largest market is the best way to achieve success, but this leaves the owner out of the equation. Jo shared what she refers to as Brand E.P.I.C.S. ( Experiences, Pains, Interests, Character, Skills ), which are keys to finding the business that best suits you, that will fuel your passion, and business that you will enjoy devoting your time and energy to.Focus on your aligned avatar -  Now that your clients know your story and who you are because of how you presented your brand. They will be more willing to work with you as they want to see themselves like you.

Key Elements of a Conversion Generating Website Design Going to a website but not receiving anything that indicates what the website is for and about is very frustrating, isn't it? So, in order to  have a good website, it should answer these fundamental questions:What is this website about? = A good website should indicate whether it was created to provide a service, a product, or simply a community for people to connect for a single purpose.Why should people care? = Instead of putting everything on your website just to make it look good, your website should have things that tell people why they should look at your website, how it differs from your competitor's websites, and why they should choose you over others.How does it work? = It is true that some people browse websites mindlessly. As a result, it's important to include guidelines that will assist visitors to your website and fully engage with it.About Ari KryzekAri Krzyzek is the co-founder and chief creative officer of the Chicago-based digital brand consultancy Chykalophia.  She is known as the design queen due to her ten years of branding and design expertise.
