In this episode, I was lucky enough to interview Donnie Boivin, Founder and CEO of Success Champions Network.Donnie grew up in a blue-collar family, and never considered starting a business until he was in his 40s. Inspired by thought leaders like Gary Vee and Tim Ferriss, Donnie made the leap after spending nearly two decades in sales, but quickly realized that building a successful business was far harder than anticipated. He faced significant challenges, including a crippling non-compete that nearly caused him to lose everything. Through resilience and with the support of his wife, Donnie turned things around, ultimately building Success Champions Network into a thriving community for B2B networking.Donnie shared his philosophy on networking, emphasizing the importance of strategic partnerships over the traditional referral-based networking model. Donnie explained how Success Champions Network is designed to help businesses grow by connecting with partners that share their target markets, rather than merely making one-off sales. He also discussed how his personal brand plays a role in the success of the network, but stressed that the real value comes from the community itself. Donnie's no-nonsense approach and belief that B2B networking has been taught incorrectly for years resonates with those frustrated by traditional methods, making Success Champions Network stand out in the crowded world of business networking.Follow Donnie Boivin's bold steps into the world of business reinvention in this episode of The First Customer!Guest Info:Success Champions Networkhttps://successchampionnetworking.com/Donnie Boivin's LinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/donnieboivin/Connect with Jay on LinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/jayaigner/The First Customer Youtube Channelhttps://www.youtube.com/@thefirstcustomerpodcastThe First Customer podcast websitehttps://www.firstcustomerpodcast.comFollow The First Customer on LinkedInhttp://www.linkedin.com/company/the-first-customer-podcast/

I am super excited this episode to bring you the "force of action" we all need in the wonderful Donnie Boivin. Donnie is a Marine Corps Veteran and a 20 year sales guy who got tired of living other people's dreams and making them wealthy (sound familiar) So what did he do? He took the biggest risk in his life and opened up his own business, Success Champions......and ran it straight into the ground learning very quickly that being a sales guru does not always translate to business success. Fortunately, he found podcasting, launched Success Champions podcast and interviewed hundreds of influencers in business, learning how to be a CEO instead of an employee. Not only did he turn Success Champions around and build it into a profitable international business, he also created the Badass Business Summit for aspiring entrepreneurs and leaders to inspire and educate them to avoid his journey. Donnie is on a mission to change how the world networks (a yeh from me!) fixing everything business owners hate about networking and teaching business owners all the secrets to growing a thriving business they love.I hope you enjoy this It's All Possible Podcast and you can connect with Donnie on LinkedIn and find out more here https://donnieboivin.com/

Years ago I heard advice from Success Champions Network founder Donnie Boivin. He taught that every networking event is a sales opportunity. For some time, I did not like this because I did not understand it. I heard it to encourage pitching at networking events, but that's not what it means at all. One absolutely should not pitch, but one should always remember that the goal of all this meeting and greeting and relationship building is to ultimately find a sale, whether today, tomorrow, or next year.In this episode, I discuss more how to thread the needle between being too salesy while networking and being too social.Success Champions Network - https://www.successchampionsnetworking.comMentioned in this episode:JV Connect, December 12-13, 2023Join us for JV Connect, the dedicated networking event December 12th and 13th, 2023 https://www.jv-connect.com
