For season 3, Brinkman was joined by a new co-host, renovation icon Ty Pennington, and brought the Small Business Revolution movement to the town of Alton, Illinois. And now, in the hit show's fourth season, Brinkman and Pennington will tackle a variety of marketing challenges for small businesses in Searcy, Arkansas. Brinkman is a sought-after public speaker, sharing her “Do Well By Doing Good” philosophy on stages around the country. She demonstrates how both companies and individuals can make a meaningful and positive difference in people's lives, while increasing their own success in the process. It is her passionate belief that companies must identify their brand's purpose but they cannot stop there, they must find their unique brand action.

Her goal is to revitalize the proverbial “Main Street” in small towns throughout the U.S. by increasing the effectiveness and strength of their small businesses. Giving Back “Giving back” is a non-negotiable. Our purpose on this earth is to make other people's lives better, but so many companies draw the line at philanthropy and volunteerism. Large companies have a responsibility to take it a step further because they have the means to “give back” on a grand scale. Amanda increased Deluxe's effectiveness in this territory by devising a plan to help small businesses where it really counts. She found that the best way to connect with small businesses is to work with them directly, and Deluxe's offerings reflect that. Inspire Support Deluxe's products and services increase the effectiveness of small businesses, but the number one thing a small business needs is customers. Amanda realized that she could provide marketing expertise to help them drum up support. The best way to help small businesses is to work with them on all of the areas that don't come naturally. Marketing is one of them and many small businesses struggle with it. Amanda is doing everything in her power to help small businesses create a ripple effect in their communities, and she is using Deluxe as a vehicle to change lives for the better.

A marketing provocateur cross-trained in the discipline of brand development and the rigor of retail promotion, Lynne is the CEO/Owner of FAME. She has orchestrated hundreds of national campaigns for blue-chip, retail and packaged goods marketers in all channels of trade including Target, Dreamworks, IMG, General Mills, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and Hewlett-Packard Enterprise. In this episode of Intentional Greatness, Lynne provides inspiration and advice for running your business. Prior to joining FAME, Robertson was VP/Management Supervisor at Campbell Mithun, where she also served as director of KidCom, one of the top three youth marketing agencies in the world. Her work has been recognized and awarded by Effie International, HOW International and the International Retail Design Institute. In 2011 she received the AdFed Silver award for her contributions to the Advertising industry and in 2013 was named a Who's Who in Shopper Marketing. She was also tapped as a 2014 Women in Business Honoree by the MSP Business Journal and was featured as a Minneapolis Egotist's Madwoman of the Month. In May 2015, Lynne purchased Fame from Omnicom and its TBWA network to become a fully-independent, woman-owned enterprise focused on “Being done with what's been done.” She founded Lead Like a Mother (www.leadlikeamother.com) a business management philosophy and advice platform that applies the skills of motherhood to the day-to-day concerns of guiding and running a professional organization in order to teach others to Lead like Mothers. She is the featured retail expert on the Small Business Revolution (smallbusinessrevolution.org) co-hosted by Amanda Brinkman and Ty Pennington. A member of The Hub Braintrust, an honorary AdFed Board member and Vice President of the Twin Cities Retail Design Institute, Lynne has served on numerous industry panels for the Retail Advertising and Marketing Association, Shopper Insights and is an Institute Faculty Member of The Path to Purchase Institute. She is a frequent speaker on the topics of leadership and the humanity of brand experience. What You Will Learn: What FAME looked like when Lynne purchased it in 2015 vs. what it looks like now Lynne's transition from executive to owner The transformation of marketing, branding, and brand development How Lynne practiced humility as she adapted to change The importance of health in the role of a business owner Delegating responsibilities to your team when you're away How health has influenced Lynne's priorities Lynne's work with Lead Like a Mother and how you can get involved Resources: Website: www.thisisfame.com Twitter: @RobertsonLynne LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lynne-robertson-6a8925/ Running Your Business | From Executive to Owner: Navigating an Industry Transformation From Executive to Owner There are a lot of benefits to being a part of a holding company while you are running your business. You have access to their resources, their benefits, and even their bank account. You don't have to worry about making payroll or keeping the lights on. But you also have to bend the knee and adhere to their ideology. Lynne Robertson already had a vision for FAME's future and she was determined to carry it out. She was always passionate about FAME's people, clients, and the work they were doing, and she wanted to preserve that by any means necessary. Lynne continuously operated from a position of vulnerability and humility. But when the holding company began introducing new programs that she did not believe in, Lynne refused to take it lying down. She was always in the trenches with her team and her clients, despite having international recognition in the advertising community. She made every decision with their best interest at heart. That is why everyone stood with her as the next chapter unfolded. Running Your Business: Lynne's Purchase of FAME Lynne's passion and persistence culminated in her purchase of FAME in 2015. It became a fully-independent, woman-owned enterprise focused on “Being done with what's been done.” But entrepreneurship has a steep learning curve that you can't understand until you are running your business with no strings attached. That holds true, no matter how prepared you are. And when your industry is undergoing a significant transformation as you set up shop, it takes a select type of unfuckwithable leader to keep things moving forward. Agencies used to make their money from fee retainers and media commissions, but times are changing. Media is ultra-fragmented, the gig economy is booming, and UX/environmental design is becoming less relevant in the B2C market. With FAME's roots in the retail sector, Lynne had to restructure her business model and expand her offerings out of the gate. It was not a smooth transition. But FAME's retail sensibility, graphic design centricity, and worship of the holy deadline enabled Lynne to make a quicker pivot as she targeted clients beyond retail. Summary In the flux of any industry, you have to get humble quickly. When you are running your business in its infancy, you must sacrifice vanity and check your ego at the door. Only you can see the big picture, and people will talk. But unfuckwithable leaders can't hear them. Lynne Robertson ignored the stigma and focused on what mattered. She made sacrifices and difficult decisions to move FAME in a new direction. Now, Lynne is watching her vision materialize, and many of the critics will never know what that's like.

Since withdrawing U.S. forces from Northern Syria and leaving our allies the Kurds to fend off Turkish fighters, President Trump has received backlash from both parties. Critics say the decision is good news for countries like Iran and Russia who could gain leverage in the region. But President Trump says it is time we “let someone else fight over this long, blood-stained sand.” So, who are the winners and losers after this week's developments in Syria? Former CIA Chief of Station and FOX News Contributor Daniel Hoffman weighs in on the conflict in Syria. Ty Pennington spent much of his career hosting home renovation reality shows. The TV personality has now turned his attention to helping small businesses.

Episode Two: Look Ma, I’m on TV What is winning $75,000 and being featured on a reality television series like? For Coty Skinner, that dream became a reality in March of 2019 when his company, ARganic Woodworking, LLC, was chosen as one of the six contestants for the Hulu series, “Small Business Revolution,” sponsored by the highly respected marketing firm, Deluxe. Coty hadn’t always dreamed of being a maker, though. Upon graduation from a high school in central Arkansas, Coty enlisted with the United States Army. After serving in the Army for ten years, Coty pursued a career in HVAC, and then felt God calling him into ministry. After having two daughters of their own, ages 5 and 13, Coty and his wife began a new challenging and impactful ministry of their own: fostering. Being a foster parent is full of challenges and hurdles, and very quickly Coty realized a glaring obstacle: the family dining table was too small. Remembering his own teenage years and the impact conversations made at the family table had on him, he realized he needed to build a table with enough room for his family and the children they fostered. Driven by a passion for ministering to others and making sure everyone has a seat at the table, ARganic Woodworking was born. Working out of his garage, for every three tables Coty made, he donated one to a foster family in need of a bigger table. As his business has grown, Coty wants to move from making tables to creating livelihoods for teens aging out of the foster system by teaching them a trade. “The more you do, the more you learn it.” ARganic Woodworking became Coty’s full-time business this year, and several of his projects garnered local attention, specifically tables he made for a local coffee shop and creperie, Savor + Sip. His wife encouraged him to apply for the Small Business Revolution, a Hulu series sponsored by Deluxe with hosts Amanda Brinkman and Ty Pennington. Applying on the last day, with very little optimism that his company would be chosen, ARganic Woodworking was selected as one of six winners on the show. Coty’s story and business are inspiring, humbling, and reminds us that no matter where you are in your making journey, in this community, you always have a seat at the table.

Amanda Brinkman joins host Kelly Scanlon on this episode of Talking Business Now. You may know Brinkman as the co-host of The Small Business Revolution—Main Streetseries with Ty Pennington. What you may not know is that Brinkman herself brings an entrepreneurial attitude—and a belief that all brands can “Do Well By Doing Good”—to all her endeavors. Brinkman, who has had a long career in marketing and advertising, almost didn’t go into the field because she didn’t know how it would fulfill her desire to “do good” and to give back. But a mentor challenged her to find a way to marry her two passions. From the get-go, Brinkman made a mark at top ad agencies working with brands such as Colgate-Palmolive, Virgin Mobile, Rebok, H&R Block and BMW. Now, as the chief brand and communications officer of Deluxe Corp., Brinkman is helping small businesses succeed. She created, executive produces and stars in The Small Business Revolution, which awards one small town and its small businesses $500,000 each season. She also serves on several business, charitable and nonprofit boards, including Make-A-Wish, the Children’s Cancer Research Fund, the Women’s Business Development Center Chicago, the Association of National Advertisers and others.

In the final moments of the presidential debate, Hillary Clinton was answering a question when Donald Trump quietly called her a “nasty woman”. Clinton may not have flinched at the words, but the rest of the world did. Trump’s mumbled insult stirred up an online storm. Amanda Brinkman’s simple, clever idea transformed into a call for solidarity among women across the globe.
