Now, Steve is dedicated to helping other small business owners stand out, foster deep relationships, and increase their income – all while having fun and avoiding burnout. This is Steve Buzogany 's story: Once a real estate agent, Steve Buzogany discovered the power of focusing on the relationship rather than the transaction. Mentored by Brian Buffini, Steve quickly became known as the "referral guy" around his office.

However, he realized that many agents didn't want to put in the extra effort for these customized gifts, leading him to create Appreciation Advocate.

Enhance your gifting approach to create exceptional experiences for clients. Showcase conscious gratitude through acts of impactful generosity towards others. Drive business growth by prioritizing lasting connections over financial ambitions. The Six Criteria for Great GiftsTo maximize the impact of client gifts, it's crucial to adhere to specific criteria that ensure a gift resonates with recipients on an emotional level. The six criteria include quality, personalization, emotional impact, staying power, building connection, and focusing on the recipient rather than the giver. As discussed by Steve Buzogany, traditional corporate gifts like food baskets, gift cards, and branded swag bags often fall short of creating lasting impressions. By focusing on the six criteria presented during the interview, businesses can enhance their gifting approach and create memorable experiences that foster strong relationships with clients. The resources mentioned in this episode are: Sign up as a client of Appreciation Advocate to receive personalized and high-quality gift recommendations for your top 10-25 clients.

She shares with us her story and teaches us: How to Comeback after a Setback You will have to make a choice to sacrifice sleep, money, or social life while building a business. The changes that are good in the life insurance industry are technology and much more. Her story in the insurance industry began when she was a sophomore in college working at a local cable company. During that time her mother brought it to her attention that she needed to invest in a life insurance policy to pay off her student loans in case the unthinkable should happen. Also at the same time, her grandmother had been diagnosed with Alzheimer's, and suddenly insurance became a hot topic within their family. Coincidentally, she was offered an agent position at a national insurance company (whom she still partners with today) that could cover her grandmother, she instantly accepted the opportunity and immediately quit her job. That allowed her to embark on a successful career initially helping only the senior population.
