Giftology isn't just about giving gifts. It's about understanding that at the heart of every great business relationship lies the human connection, which is nurtured by acts of radical generosity. John Ruhlin, the visionary behind Giftology and founder of Giftology Group, was a leading authority on the power of using gifts as a business tool. His vision transformed the way companies think about and approach strategic gifting.  Through his work, John helped countless businesses, from small startups to large corporations, use gifting to deepen connections with clients, employees, and partners, driving loyalty and business growth. Tragically, John passed away 3 weeks ago. We share this episode, which was recorded 3 years ago but never released until now, to honor his legacy and the profound impact he had on so many lives and the industry as a whole.

Barbara Mowat - GroYourBiz Ltd. President and Founder shares her insights during her first #podcast ever!! I was so honoured to have the privilege of experiencing this with her.  She is a rockstar with a tremendous amount of experience and kindness to share.    “I've learned the tremendous value of #perseverance and the power of empathetic #networking. It's so important to cultivate a supportive #community and to be resilient in the face of adversity”~Barbara   “Perseverance has been a cornerstone of my success. Throughout my career, I've encountered numerous obstacles and setbacks that could have easily derailed my ambitions. Whether it was navigating a difficult business climate, facing personal challenges, or overcoming professional #hurdles, I've consistently relied on my ability to persevere. I firmly believe that success is not just about talent or intelligence, but also about the ability to persevere in the face of #obstacles. There have been numerous times in my career when I faced setbacks and challenges that seemed insurmountable. But it was my unwavering #determination and refusal to give up that ultimately propelled me forward,”~shares Barbara.    “Empathetic networking has not only opened doors for me professionally but has also enriched my life personally. One of the most valuable lessons I've learned is the importance of building genuine, empathetic connections with others. Networking isn't just about exchanging business cards or making superficial connections. It's about truly understanding and supporting one another. I've found that by approaching networking with empathy and a genuine interest in others' success, I've been able to build a strong network of like-minded individuals who have been instrumental in my personal and professional growth,”~states Barbara.    “Being unbreakable doesn't mean being impervious to pain or failure. It means acknowledging those moments, allowing yourself to feel the emotions that come with them, and then using that energy to fuel your drive to succeed. It's about understanding that setbacks are a natural part of any journey and that they can serve as opportunities for growth and development,”~Barbara.    She is a true testament to the struggle is part of the story…but not the whole story. I love her #authenticity, openness, and willing to share her wealth of knowledge and experience. We need more Barbara's in the world!    “Remember, success is not always about avoiding failure, but about how you respond to it. I truly believe that with perseverance, empathy, and an #unbreakable spirit, you can achieve anything you set your mind to,”~encourages Barbara   #GlobalNetworking #WomenInBusiness #GrowYourBiz  #WomenEmpowerment #JourneyToSuccess #Resilience #RelationshipsInBusiness #AuthenticConnections #NetworkingTips #empoweredwomenempowerwomen #women #empower #leaders ThoughtLeadership #AccelerateConference   You can watch the full video episode on YouTube.  Or listen on Apple Podcast, Spotify or any of your favourite streaming apps.   Please show your support with a: Like❤️ Comment

In this episode, Leslie MacRossie joins us to discuss the importance of relationships in business, including the benefits of doing business with people you know, like, and trust. We also delve into the topic of creating raving fans and hiring employees based on shared values and vision for the company. Leslie is a real estate agent who knows what it takes to be outstanding in this reputation-based industry. For Leslie, integrity among her clients and peers is a top priority. She has a referral-only customer base thanks to her client commitment, dependability, and accountability, which have earned her positive feedback like “You're the only agent who's solved my problem!” and “You were my unicorn finder!” After growing up in Dallas, Leslie attended the University of San Francisco, where she worked full time to support herself while earning a degree in organizational behavior. In 1999, a few years after graduation, she moved to Denver and spent 20 years working in medical sales, marketing, and management, gaining valuable skills like problem-solving, communication, creativity, and attention to detail. When the changing medical industry prompted her thoughts of a career change, Leslie was recommended to become a real estate agent by a friend who believed her “personable nature and trustworthiness” would make her great at the job. After two years of working at a brokerage, Leslie earned her employing broker's license and set her sights on owning her own company. Leslie is committed to going above and beyond to ease her clients' stresses and get the job done right the first time. With a network of trusted vendors, Leslie can manage any task her clients might need. Her intuition for her clients' preferences often enables her to find them the right home — sight unseen. As someone who's been through the emotional and practical complexities of divorce, downsizing, and moving out of state, she has a unique understanding of her clients' needs. Leslie is an agent who can always be relied on. In her free time, Leslie enjoys hiking, practicing yoga, and traveling, and she's even climbed Mount Kilimanjaro! She also loves cooking and entertaining, especially with the perfect charcuterie board and sauvignon blanc pairing. Leslie is the events chairperson of the Washington Park East Neighborhood Association, a role she created for herself as a born event planner. She also volunteers with A Little Help and contributes her constructive expertise as a mentor for the Rocky Mountain Micro Finance Institute. Leslie is currently working towards becoming fluent in Spanish, although it doesn't prove too helpful when she talks to her French and American bulldogs.

Cys Bronner, BNI Executive Director, CRO and THE Constant Social Media Networker, discusses #BNI Core Value – GIVERS GAIN®We give because we understand that in a community, what we do, others will do, and we all benefit.Transcript:Hi, I'm Cys Bronner, BNI Executive Director for BNI's Greater Los Angeles regions, BNI4Success. Today, I want to talk about BNI's Core Value #1 – GIVERS GAIN®It should be no surprise that our first Core Value, is also the driving philosophy of BNI.   Over time, I've learned that Givers Gain® can mean many things to many different people. But ultimately, it's based on the age-old philosophy of “What goes around, comes around”. In my mind, it's more than a reciprocal tit-for-tat statement. It is how we lift up others around us. It's the philosophy of sharing the gratitude of abundance with our business partners. It's the benefit that even the smallest farmer knows, the garden grows best when the seeds are pollenated.When I look at our 7 Core Values, I also see that it's the strength within some of the others, like Building Relationships and even Accountability. Givers Gain® isn't just a throw away motto, it's a part of BNI's DNA. Everyone all levels understands that this is organizations guiding core value, and that's a pretty incredible thing to be a part of, isn't it?  If you're looking to gain more insights into BNI and really bring the most results to your chapter and business, let me be a part of your network.  Subscribe or follow BNIpodcast4success.com  I'm looking forward to hearing how Givers Gain® is woven into your life.  In networking: The more memorable (positive and helpful) you are, the better the results. Questions?

We have all been there, accept a Linkedin connection or a Facebook friend request then bang the dreaded private message hits you in box within five minutes. For entrepreneurs, building relationships is essential for long-term growth, profitability, and sustainability. And to build relationships—with customers, employees, vendors, and investors—good communication is key. But instantly spamming someones in box with a “BUY MY STUFF” message rarely leads to sales!

#139 Paula Donnelly & James Hanson - The importance of building business relationships Paula and James talk to us about the importance of building relationships. We talk about: The value of critical thinking and different skill sets in business. Good design doesn't mean reinventing the wheel. And how their 2 dream clients involve pizzas and fighting. James and Paula met at the Campus North, a (now closed) digital coworking space based in Newcastle, when James first founded Layers in 2016. Now 5 years old, Layers is growing with a team of 8 and serving clients internationally. They both love their work and believe that anyone can be good at something with enough practice but to be truly great at something you need to love what you do. They believe that having an end solution that looks great should be a given and functionality doesn't need to be sacrificed for aesthetics. Their mantra is to work collaboratively with clients to deliver purpose-driven solutions, not just pretty pictures.   Key Resources: Inspiration North Website - www.inspirationnorth.com Inspiration North Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/inspirationnorth  Inspiration North Twitter - https://twitter.com/Inspirationorth  Inspiration North Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/inspiration_north/  Inspiration North LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/inspiration-north   Layers Website - https://layers.studio/ Layers on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/layers-studio Layers on Twitter - https://twitter.com/LayersStudio Layers on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/layers.studio/ Layers on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/layersstudio/   James on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/james-hanson-17407b105/ James on Twitter - https://twitter.com/JamesGHanson James on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/jamesyhanson/   Paula on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/paula-donnelly/ Paula on Twitter - https://twitter.com/Paula_Mae_Donn Paula on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/paulamae90/

Whoever suggested “Don't mix business and pleasure” never met a successful entrepreneur.

The most important purpose for delivering exceptional service is to build trust and develop a reputation for trust, with customers and clients, fellow businesses in your space and even sometimes competitors. Mo Akins, owner of LYBL Fitness in Toronto, Canada is the proof-of-concept. She's crushing it in her business as a result of passion and appreciation fueling an incredible level of service. 

There's this idea out there that building relationships is just easy for some people. And sure, if you have a social personality and are naturally an extrovert, or if you love to talk and connect with people, then yes, maybe building relationships is easier for you. But your personality style doesn't have to dictate your ability to build relationships! After all, everyone has a little bit of insecurity in them. As you can probably guess, I'm a huge extrovert. But I still get a little nervous walking into a party or situation where I don't know anyone. We all know what it's like to feel like the new kid at school. So for those of us who have a super extroverted personality style, it doesn't mean that we won't ever struggle with building relationships. And building relationships isn't only vital in your life, but it's also vital to your business. Everything you will ever achieve in your life will come through people-so becoming good at building relationships is one of the most important skills you can develop. In fact, if you don't have key relationships, you won't get anywhere. Related: 4 Friends You Need in Business Why Are Business Relationships so Important? Even if the only person that works in your business is you, you still don't have to go it alone. Building strong business relationships will set you up for success in these areas: Getting your products into stores Collaborating with bloggers and influencers Gaining referrals for new customers Connecting your clients with supplemental vendors Overcoming challenges when you get stuck And who doesn't need help with at least one of those things? So, in this episode, I'll give you the five steps to making strong business connections. My Guest This Week Is Emily Richett! Emily is a publicist, consultant, and the founder of Richett Media. She is a former TV news reporter. While in that role, she covered over 6,000 inspiring stories about entrepreneurs, businesses and nonprofit organizations. So, she's basically an expert on how to share the story of your business and get exposure. Sharing your story is one of the strongest ways you can build business relationships and get PR, and we're going to learn so much from her! In this podcast, Emily and I talk about: Why it's easier than you think to get media coverage, especially as a small-business owner How to think like a reporter and pitch your story as valuable to them, so that they actually want to help you get exposure and access to their audience The best times of year to seek out local media coverage based on your type of business Overcoming Imposter Syndrome when you're competing with owners of bigger businesses How to build amazing relationships with reporters and influencers so they have you back for repeat collaborations Creative, outside-the-box ways to promote your business From Building Relationships to Busting Business Loan Myths I was reading a Forbes article the other day called "Best Small-Business Loans For Women in 2018," and I was encouraged to see the latest stats on female-owned businesses. Basically, y'all are killing it. But the article goes on to talk about all the different ways you can get small-business financing. Now, you know I'm all about y'all growing your businesses. What I don't want you to do is believe that taking out loans is the only way to do that. In fact, taking out a loan isn't an indicator of success or growth-it's a risk and a loss of power. But I am here to tell you that you can chase your dream and achieve success-and do it all debt-free! In fact, I know and have personally seen countless women who've done just that. Just listen to my podcast interview with Melissa Hinnant, founder of Grace & Lace, who did $800,000 in sales her first year in business without borrowing a penny. In this episode, I'm going on a bit of Christy-rant to address this issue head-on! Plus, I'll answer a question...

Sujan Patel shares excellent marketing and growth tips for SaaS business owners based on his ten years of Internet marketing experience.   Introduction Sujan Patel started his first business selling cars parts while in high school. While the business was not a great success due to a lack of business acumen, he learned SEO in the process. His SEO skills would serve him well in years to come.   Sujan dropped out of college to found Single Grain, a digital marketing agency. Single grain eventually became one of San Francisco's leading agencies boasting such high-profile clients as Intuit, SalesForce, Random House, Sony Pictures, and Yahoo. In 2014, Sujan sold his holdings in Single Grain and took a job as VP of marketing at the SaaS company When I Work—as a vacation (he does not like to be bored).   Together with Colin Matthews, Sujan has founded ContentMarketer.io, a SaaS product to help marketers automate content promotion efforts.   During the Christmas holidays of 2015, he and Rob Wormley "accidentally" wrote the ebook 100 Days of Growth while brainstorming growth strategies.
