Send us a textGreg's journey isn't your typical athlete-to-executive story.

Facebook sued by the FTCFTC Sues Facebook for Illegal MonopolizationLawsuits Filed by the FTC and the State Attorneys General Are Revisionist HistoryFacebook Accused of Breaking Antitrust LawsThe New York Times reports The Federal Trade Commission and more than 40 states have accused Facebook on of buying up its rivals to illegally squash competitionThe lawsuit alleges that Facebook deployed anticompetitive tactics in order to buy or neutralize its rivals and shore up its market dominance, specifically with its purchase of photo-sharing app Instagram and the messaging service WhatsApp.The states' lawsuit quotes an email from CEO Mark Zuckerberg to Instagram co-founder Kevin Systrom warning of the competitive threat Instagram faced if it turned down Facebook. “At some point soon, you'll need to figure out how you actually want to work with us.”They have called for Facebook to sell off WhatsApp and Instagram, and to seek approval for any future acquisitionsFacebook has responded to the lawsuit, dismissing it as “Revisionist History”On their newsroom, they've said “The Federal Trade Commission and state attorneys general today attack two acquisitions that we made: Instagram in 2012 and WhatsApp in 2014. Facebook points out that The FTC conducted an in-depth “Second Request” of the Instagram transaction in 2012 before voting unanimously to clear it.“Now, many years later, with seemingly no regard for settled law or the consequences to innovation and investment, the agency is saying it got it wrong and wants a do-over. In addition to being revisionist history, this is simply not how the antitrust laws are supposed to work.”Looks like this will be a long, protracted legal fight “I had "Facebook sued for Antitrust" on my 2020 Bingo Card, although admittedly I also had it on my 2019 and 2018 Bingo card as well,” says Tess' old boss. Facebook is the second big tech company to face a major legal challenge this year after the US Justice Department sued Google in October, accusing the tech company of abusing its position to maintain an illegal monopoly over search and search advertising.So long Melbourne's flying taxis, we barely knew yeUber has sold off its aviation division to start-up called Joby, just days after offloading its self-driving car businessIt's looking unlikely Uber will deliver on its promise to launch a fleet of 1000 commercial flying taxis in Melbourne from 2023.

In this episode of The Big Picture Podcast, Dominica Lumazar and Rory Carruthers use their business marketing expertise to assist you on your path to reaching your big picture goals. Diving deep into strategies for putting your clients first, they provide valuable insights into why this client-first approach is the most effective way for growing your business and how it leads to deeper, lasting client relationships. This episode also touches on the topics of allowing yourself to breathe amongst the chaos, public speaking, building connections, and admitting when you are at a loss in a situation.“Clients can tell when you're putting on a front, especially higher-level clients, so it is best to just be you and approach it from the viewpoint of trying to simply help them.” – Rory Carruthers“If you're thinking about yourself first and your gains, then you will inevitably fail. The biggest failure you can have in business is not taking your customer into consideration first. Their needs should be first and the solution to their problems should be first too.” – Dominica LumazarSome Topics Discussed Include:How to shift towards the needs of your clients for greater successWhat to do when you want high-level clients but have never had anyThe secret to keeping your cool in the midst of chaosHow to build connections rather than competitionThe major turn off of all high-level clients and why you must avoid it at all costsDownload the detailed show notes for this episode at https://bpbpodcast.com/the-art-of-putting-your-clients-first/

Episode 46 – Building Powerful Relationships with Chelsea StroudI sit down with a long-time client Chelsea Stroud of Parker Group Real Estate who is seriously the kindest, most positive person you will ever meet. Chelsea is a gifted relationship builder and understands that business is the long game, and she is in it to win it.  She shares the awkward start to her real estate journey and all the things she did to get customers. Some strategies were effective, others were not. As she says, she was "doing whatever it took" to achieve what she wanted and she was willing to try anything, even if it meant failing.We talk about using our positivity and personalities as a magnet to draw the right people to us. We also acknowledge that relationship building is a special skill and Chelsea gives her top tips on how to do it right. Finding new clientsChelsea strives to ensure that when people think of real estate they think of her. Her advice on where to meet clients is simple, be in places you enjoy and talk to people! Sometimes she organizes coworking days for other entrepreneurs, it's a chance to get everyone out into the world instead of working alone. Being willing to just create something is key. Building relationshipsBuilding long standing relationships is key, as is learning to nurture people in general. Some of our best clients are like us in many ways, which is why hanging out in places where you are comfortable works so well. The competitionThe real estate field is saturated, so in order to stand out Chelsea genuinely cares and makes a point to really listen to her clients and get to know their needs. She is aware that as the business evolves, she must look for ways to add value in order to retain clients, and it's not a cookie cutter approach. Another strategy that works is keeping time in her calendar to respond to new business requests, so leads don't get cold. MistakesWe chat about how when a project or contract has been completed, it's important to keep in touch with the client, whether on social media or by inviting them to events periodically just to keep in touch. Many business owners forget about the client after the work is completed. Sending a birthday message or putting a comment on social media goes a long way for keeping in touch.
