Podcasts about business success

 A year-end recap is more than a highlight reel—it's a practical reset. In this New Year episode, Trace Blackmore walks through 2025 using a "12 Days of the Scaling Up Nation" format, tying together performance, community growth, listener engagement, and the sponsor support that keeps the podcast and its companion tools available at no cost.   Year-end by the numbers   Trace explains how he used to track every stat closely—and how that shifted into an unhealthy measure of self-worth—so the team now uses numbers as feedback, not validation. He notes the show released 56 brand-new episodes in 2025 (including the additional releases during Industrial Water Week) and explains why the data still matters: it helps confirm what the community is using, such as discussion guides and other tools, and what needs to be improved.  Most-downloaded episodes and what listeners leaned into  Trace shares the three most-downloaded episodes of 2025:  Episode 405 — cooling water innovation using treated wastewater  Episode 418 — maleic acid (with Mike Standish)  Episode 424 — chlorine dioxide (the most downloaded episode of the year)  Engagement that keeps learning moving  The episode highlights growth in the Scaling Up Nation across newsletter subscriptions, discussion guide downloads, and an expanding LinkedIn community.   Recognition, partners, and momentum into 2026  Trace acknowledges milestones including AWT naming Scaling Up H2O the official podcast of the Association of Water Technologies, and he thanks the sponsors who make the podcast's free content possible—19 sponsoring partners in 2025. The episode closes with a direct invitation for listeners to share what they want to learn next, who they want interviewed, and what stories could help the industry keep "raising the bar."  Listen to the full conversation above.

Episode #1075 You'd think selling your business for millions would be the happiest moment of your life. But for many men, it brings something they didn't expect: confusion, disconnection, and a deep sense of loss. In this episode, Tim sits down with Bruce to talk about what really happens after the big win. They share real stories from men who've reached the top only to realize the scoreboard at home looks very different from the one at work. We dig into identity, purpose, the emotional cost of achievement, and why many men feel like frauds even after they've made it. You'll hear why the people at home don't care how big the exit was. Why being respected in the boardroom doesn't always mean being seen in your own living room. And why men often retreat back into work instead of leaning into the harder work at home. We talk about the emotional bank account and what to do when it's overdrawn. If you've ever felt like something's off even when everything looks perfect on paper, this one will hit home. If you're feeling stuck at home, like you're winning at work but failing in your relationship, start by getting clear on what's broken and how to fix it.

Some service businesses plateau because the owner stays trapped in daily operations. Others scale because they build teams, install systems, and let go of the work that keeps them stuck. This episode shows exactly what that transformation looks like.  In this episode of The Better Than Rich Show, Mike Abramowitz interviews Andrea Bryant, owner of Staged Right, one of Tampa Bay's leading home-staging companies. Andrea went from a 20-year schoolteacher to a full-time house flipper to running a staging company that now completes 150–175 homes a year. Her journey shows how systems, team development, CRM automation, and targeted hiring free owners from 60–70 hour weeks and create a business that scales with consistency.  Andrea explains how she replaced herself in staging, delegated administration, built a reliable team culture, and streamlined client nurturing using automated pipelines and campaigns. She breaks down the shift from doing everything herself to running a company that performs better without her in the day-to-day. Her hours dropped below 40 a week, she took a full month away while revenue held steady, and the company hit more than 100 five-star Google reviews.  You'll hear the real before-and-after: working nonstop with constant stress vs. creating freedom, stronger family relationships, and optionality to one day sell the business. This is a practical look at how everyday owners can buy back their time, build a self-sustaining company, and use business as a vehicle for their life.  Timestamps  [00:00] Introducing Andrea Bryant and Staged Right [01:10] From schoolteacher to home flipper to staging owner [03:30] Early fears, slow first months, first clients [04:35] Coaching, foundations, and learning real business systems [05:45] Building the team: movers, stagers, assistants [07:40] Hiring breakthroughs and culture wins [09:00] Current team structure and roles [10:40] Shifting out of admin and staging tasks [12:15] Volume growth: 150–175 homes a year [13:45] Revenue increases and price adjustments [15:40] What systems bought back time [16:50] CRM campaigns, nurture sequences, and business card automation [19:00] Staying in her “genius” and keeping relationship-driven sales [21:10] What's automated behind the scenes [23:00] Impact of automation on reputation and client experience  [27:40] 100+ Google reviews and rising service quality [28:45] Receiving acquisition offers and thinking about selling [30:30] Making a business sellable vs. owner-dependent [37:04] Experience with Better Than Rich and key results [40:10] What being “better than rich” means [41:20] Who Staged Right serves and where to reach Andrea [42:45] Close and next steps for listeners  Key Quotes  “I realized the business actually performs better when I'm not the one staging.” “My 60–70 hour weeks are gone. I'm under 40 now, and the revenue is higher.” “Automation doesn't replace personalization. It protects it.”  Key Takeaways  Hire for passion and skill so you can step out of the technical work. Build systems early: CRM, campaigns, tagging, automations, pipelines. Delegate admin immediately; every 10-minute task adds up to lost hours. A business grows faster when the owner focuses on relationships and rainmaking. Culture matters: loyalty, celebrations, shared wins, and team pride drive results. Removing yourself from operations increases valuation and creates optionality.  Links Mentioned  Staged Right www.stagedrightllc.com Better Than Rich betterthanrich.com/gsd Connect with The Better Than RichWebsite - https://www.betterthanrich.com/Facebook - https://m.facebook.com/betterthanrich/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/betterthan_rich/Twitter - https://mobile.twitter.com/betterthan_richTikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@betterthanrichYouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3xXEb7rKBvkCOdtWd4tj2ALinkedin - https://www.linkedin.com/company/betterthanrich

Attitude plays a critical role in the outcomes we achieve in life and in business. In this episode of the I Hate Numbers podcast, we explore how mindset, beliefs, and internal narrative influence decision-making, confidence, and long-term success. A strong mindset shapes behaviour, improves resilience, and supports better business performance. What This Episode Covers In this episode, we look at how our thoughts and internal dialogue drive what we do. We discuss why improving business results is not only about numbers or strategy, but also about how we think about ourselves and our business journey. Fixed Mindset vs Growth Mindset We explain two major mindset groups—those who believe their ability is fixed, and those who believe ability can develop through effort, coaching, and learning. One mindset restricts progress, and the other encourages improvement, possibility, and stronger results. Why Attitude Shapes Behaviour Attitude drives behaviour. If we believe a task is achievable, we are more likely to push through challenges. If we believe failure defines us, we retreat. We discuss how attitude influences motivation, problem-solving, and decision-making in everyday business operations. Business Confidence and Belief Having confidence in your skills improves communication, price-setting, delegation, and leadership. A negative attitude affects growth, sales, and customer interaction. This episode shows how reframing beliefs can boost performance and reduce anxiety. Emotions and Decision-Making We highlight how emotional states affect business management. Stress and uncertainty can lead to poor decisions or inactivity. Awareness helps build control and better outcomes. Seeing Obstacles as Growth Business comes with setbacks. Mindset determines whether setbacks become learning opportunities or stopping points. A growth attitude promotes resilience and long-term success.

In this insightful episode of "It's the Bottom Line That Matters," hosts Jennifer Glass, Daniel McCraine and Patricia Reszetylo tackle the crucial business skill of follow-up. The conversation opens with a discussion on how many touchpoints it really takes to secure client relationships, especially in environments where multiple interactions are often needed before a sale is made. The trio gets candid about their own follow-up habits—both the successes and the areas where they've fallen short—illustrating that even seasoned professionals sometimes struggle to stay on top of client communications.Listeners will learn about the different follow-up approaches that can work for a variety of businesses, whether retail, professional, or service-based. Daniel McCraine shares his experience of when consistent follow-up is a good investment of time, and when it's better to let clients come back at their own pace, especially in industries where readiness is a key factor. Jennifer Glass and Patricia Reszetylo discuss the advantages and challenges of relying on systems like CRMs, automated emails, and even handwritten notes, as well as the importance of mixing technology with personal touches.The episode also delves into preferences for how people like to receive follow-ups—whether by text, email, or traditional mail—and reveals the importance of choosing the right channel for your audience. For those who find follow-up daunting, the hosts remind us that doing something, even if imperfect, is far better than not following up at all. Wrapping up, the team encourages business owners to take action on long-forgotten contacts and leverage simple outreach to rekindle connections, reminding listeners that a simple message could lead to valuable new opportunities. This episode is a must-listen for anyone wanting practical, relatable advice on building stronger client relationships and boosting their bottom line through thoughtful follow-up.KEYWORDS: follow up, customer retention, client communication, CRM, automation, handwritten notes, direct mail, text messaging, email follow up, touch points, warm traffic, business relationships, sales process, thank you messages, networking, business cards, virtual coffee chat, sales funnel, prospect nurturing, mindset shift, coaching, consulting, automated touch points, reminders, promotional messages, service business, personal preferences, short code texts, business phone system, unsubscribe issues, client databaseHere are 3 actionable takeaways you can use today:Consistency beats perfection!

Don't rely solely on email—consider automated handwritten notes, text messages, or even direct mail to stay top of mind. Jennifer Glass suggests automating physical mail for a personal touch that stands out.Reconnect with old contacts. That stack of business cards from networking events? Use them as an opportunity.

Welcome to a vibrant and inspiring episode of the Stuck In My Mind Podcast with your host, Wize El Jefe, as he welcomes powerhouse entrepreneur, coach, and podcast host Sasha Eburne to the show. This compelling conversation is a must-listen for anyone navigating career transitions, overcoming self-doubt, or seeking the courage to step fully into their potential—especially women with ambitions of entrepreneurship and leadership. The episode kicks off with Wize El Jefe introducing Sasha Eburne as a living example of stepping into your power: after the devastation of losing her hospitality career during the COVID pandemic, Sasha Eburne pivoted to launch her own venture as a solo mom. Within just 24 hours, she secured her first client, and, driven by relentless resourcefulness, she was fully booked with clients within three weeks. Her journey didn't stop there—she skyrocketed her business to a national level, leading a team of 15 and building a company that supported her life as a devoted mother. Listeners are given an authentic look at Sasha Eburne's life before entrepreneurship—a 25-year journey in hospitality management, working in hotels across Australia, the Middle East, and Vanuatu. Everything changed in 2020 when the pandemic hit, forcing her to reevaluate her career path. After a stint in real estate left her unfulfilled, a conversation with a friend introduced her to the virtual assistant industry—a critical turning point that sparked her entrepreneurial leap. In a candid discussion, Sasha Eburne dismantles myths around "breaking the rules" or pursuing a nontraditional career. Instead, her story is about listening to intuition and seizing opportunity with no roadmap but total commitment. She discusses overcoming fears of judgment, financial instability, and the naysayers who projected their limiting beliefs onto her. Sasha Eburne emphasizes how support systems—a network of people who “see what you see”—are crucial for entrepreneurial resilience. Both Wize El Jefe and Sasha Eburne resonate on the impact of overcoming self-doubt, sharing personal anecdotes of pushing past internal voices saying, “Who do you think you are?” A highlight of this episode is the emphasis on action over waiting for external validation. Sasha Eburne “left no stone unturned,” leveraging every network and social platform to announce her new business and connect with clients. Her boldness proved contagious, leading to rapid business growth and continuous opportunities for expansion. The conversation evolves into the power of mindset: the dangers of taking on other people's limiting beliefs and the necessity of aligning with one's own vision. Sasha Eburne reflects on how many women (and entrepreneurs in general) struggle with feelings of "asking for too much" or fall into the trap of “hustle equals worth.” She explains that true transformation and momentum stem from clarity, not chaos—a philosophy that underpins her approach to coaching women to scale businesses without sacrificing wellness or personal freedom. Another fascinating thread in this episode is Sasha Eburne's embrace of personal growth tools, including breathwork, sound healing, and neuro-linguistic programming. She shares how these practices have not only improved her own well-being but have become essential resources that she teaches to clients worldwide. Sasha Eburne describes the evolution of her coaching business—now supporting both women and men globally, running retreats, and certifying others in healing practices. It's an inspiring lesson in weaving together business, spirituality, and global community. For listeners interested in practical wisdom, Sasha Eburne lays out the essential strategies that led to her success: the importance of investing in coaches/mentors, hiring and trusting teams, leveraging automation and AI, and not shying away from outsourcing what you're not an expert in. She and Wize El Jefe discuss how AI has been a powerful tool for scaling, reducing burnout, and freeing up creators and business owners to focus on what truly matters. The episode culminates with messages of encouragement for all ambitious women: if Sasha Eburne can do it, so can you. There's no secret ingredient—only a willingness to ask for help, invest in learning, surround yourself with allies, and remain bold in the face of fear and judgment. As Wize El Jefe puts it, “If you want to start something, don't wait for permission. Just start. Your story is proof that your circumstances don't get the final word—your choices do.” Listeners will leave this episode motivated by Sasha Eburne's remarkable path from adversity to abundance, equipped with insights to turn setbacks into setups for their next big leap. Whether you're launching a business, exploring new income streams, or simply seeking fresh inspiration, this conversation will remind you that greatness is accessible to everyone with the courage to claim it. Tune in, and let Sasha Eburne and Wize El Jefe energize your journey.

In this episode of the Grow A Small Business Podcast, host Troy Trewin interviews Nando Barnett shares how he transformed Sell in Style from a small home-staging side hustle into a fast-growing multi-million-dollar company. After leaving a 10-year corporate career, he and his wife Sarah started flipping houses, which eventually led real estate agents to request their staging help. They went all-in during 2020, reinvesting everything, scaling from just the two of them to a team of 47. Nando explains how adapting as a leader, understanding clients deeply, and taking fast action fueled their growth to more than 1,400 jobs a year. He also highlights the importance of systems, mentorship, and building a strong team culture. The journey shows how clarity, bold risks, and a client-first mindset can turn a simple idea into a highly successful business. Why would you wait any longer to start living the lifestyle you signed up for? Balance your health, wealth, relationships and business growth. And focus your time and energy and make the most of this year. Let's get into it by clicking here. Troy delves into our guest's startup journey, their perception of success, industry reconsideration, and the pivotal stress point during business expansion. They discuss the joys of small business growth, vital entrepreneurial habits, and strategies for team building, encompassing wins, blunders, and invaluable advice. And a snapshot of the final five Grow A Small Business Questions: What do you think is the hardest thing in growing a small business? According to Nando Barnett, the hardest part of growing a small business is mental attitude — staying strong when things go wrong, handling pressure, and quickly shifting from problems to solutions without getting stuck emotionally. He says you have to absorb the stress, process it, and then move forward with clear action, because your mindset determines how well you lead the business through tough moments. What's your favorite business book that has helped you the most? Nando Barnett says the business books that helped him the most are Buy Back Your Time by Dan Martell, Atomic Habits by James Clear, and several leadership-focused books like Leaders Eat Last, which have all influenced his mindset, productivity, and approach to leading a fast-growing business. Are there any great podcasts or online learning resources you'd recommend to help grow a small business? According to Nando Barnett, he doesn't follow a long list of podcasts, but he focuses heavily on online learning by surrounding himself with mentors and expert content; he even redesigned his entire Instagram feed so that whenever he opens it, he only sees business leaders, coaches, and people he admires, allowing him to constantly learn, stay motivated, and absorb practical insights that help him grow his business. What tool or resource would you recommend to grow a small business? According to Nando Barnett, the best tool to grow a small business is mentors, as he believes they dramatically shorten the learning curve, help business owners avoid costly mistakes, provide clarity during difficult decisions, strengthen mental resilience, and guide both day-to-day operations and long-term strategy, which is why he personally works with multiple mentors and invests heavily in ongoing coaching and advisory support. What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business? According to Nando Barnett, the advice he would give himself on day one of starting in business is to strengthen his mental attitude, stay positive, push through the difficult weeks, and always support his team, because maintaining resilience and backing the people around him are what ultimately drive long-term success.

Brett Kemp is the President of Flood & Peterson, an employee-owned insurance brokerage since 1939, and the strongest market share among property & casualty insurance brokerages in the region.  With career chapters in the Air Force, pharmaceutical sales, and manufacturing, Brett was a darkhorse candidate for ascendance to leadership. Aaron Eide visited Fort Collins almost exactly 25 years (to the day!) before we recorded this podcast.  He's a UND graduate and came through the same Credit and Management Training program at Community First National Bank as yours truly - only a few semesters later.  Aaron had come out to scout out an apartment and see the town before moving to Fort Collins weeks later.  I gave him the nickel tour, took him out to see some live music at Lucky Joe's and then to Elliot's Martini Bar - and we don't remember much after that!  But/and - though we only worked together for about a year and in different offices - we've maintained a professional relationship through all these years, and that's part of the theme of today's podcast.  Brett's prior experience in the military, and in manufacturing, and likewise Aaron's career in credit and banking gave them added perspective on business and risk - and especially, people - that propelled their career growth.  Lot's of great business and relationship sales content in this one, and a bit of inside-baseball on the insurance industry, and three guys who all moved to the region in a short span of time - giving us a shared perspective - and so please enjoy, as I did, my conversation with Brett Kemp and Aaron Eide.  The LoCo Experience Podcast is sponsored by: Purpose Driven Wealth Thrivent: Learn more

Above all, he stresses learning: the capacity to welcome errors and missed targets and business crises as opportunities to improve.Key Insights:Clarity creates direction — With a clear mission, entrepreneurs make sharper decisions and avoid emotional drift.Self-managed teams drive scale — Hiring people who don't need constant direction frees leaders to focus on strategy.Systems create freedom — Documented processes and aligned incentives help businesses run smoothly without founder dependence.Failures are simply new opportunities to succeed.If you want to build a business—and a life—rooted in purpose, discipline, and service, this conversation delivers the essentials.Resources:➡️ Learn What They Didn't Teach You In Business School: The Value Creators Online Business CourseConnect with James Harold Webb on LinkedInConnect with Hunter Hastings on LinkedInSubscribe to The Value Creators on Substack
