On this episode of The Kara Goldin Show, I'm joined by Van Hong, Co-Founder of Mint Tools — the professional hair tool brand designing high-performance, ergonomic styling tools built with stylists in mind. Mint was founded by two best friends who combined over 40 years of beauty industry experience and electrical engineering expertise to solve a major gap in the market: salon tools weren't designed for the people actually using them. Today, Mint's line of curling irons, blow dryers, and brushes deliver salon-quality results with comfort, safety, and durability at the forefront.Before launching Mint, Van spent years as a stylist himself, constantly frustrated with tools that were heavy, clunky, and unreliable. Pairing that experience with his co-founder's technical background, the two reimagined what professional styling tools could be. From salon demos to consumer feedback, Mint has built a reputation for innovation, transparency, and products that last. Van opens up about the process of testing new tools in salons, what makes Mint different from competitors, how he thinks about safety and design for wigs and extensions, and the exciting trends shaping the future of hair styling technology.Whether you're a stylist, beauty enthusiast, or curious about what it takes to turn an industry pain point into a thriving brand, this episode is packed with insight and inspiration.

In this episode of the Modern Man Podcast, host Ted Phaeton welcomes Sergio Loaiza, founder of Protect Your Legacy, a financial education firm. They discuss the importance of financial sovereignty, the concept of infinite banking, and how to build a legacy for future generations. Sergio shares his personal journey, the significance of surrounding oneself with the right people, and the mindset needed for financial success. The conversation emphasizes the need for financial education and the impact of personal experiences on one's perspective on life and finances. Takeaways The system isn't broken; we just don't know the rules. Protecting your legacy starts with protecting it now. Surround yourself with good-quality people. The quality of your life is determined by the quality of questions you ask. Money is like air; when you have it, you don't think about it. You can choose to believe in the principles or not. If you pay cash, that cash is gone forever. You can become your banker. Life is easier when you have your finances under control. You have to be so confident in who you are.

Michael Richman is a Professional EOS Implementer with EOS Worldwide, a company that helps entrepreneurial leadership teams gain clarity, traction, and results through a proven operating system. With a background as a fifth-generation entrepreneur, he brings decades of firsthand experience in building and scaling businesses. Before becoming an EOS Implementer, Michael owned and operated a second-generation multimillion-dollar custom manufacturing company, culminating in a successful exit. He holds a degree in communications from the University of Southern California (USC) and an MBA in small business entrepreneurship from California Lutheran University. In this episode… Many entrepreneurs face the challenge of running and growing a family business while balancing legacy, leadership, and long-term sustainability. Scaling can feel overwhelming, employees may resist change, and eventually, the emotional weight of selling a business becomes unavoidable. How do you create clarity, build respect, and prepare a company for both growth and transition? Michael Richman shares how he navigated these challenges as a fifth-generation entrepreneur. By securing major accounts like Starbucks, Panda Express, and Family Dollar, Michael proved his value and helped expand his family's custom manufacturing business nationwide. Later, he turned to the EO community and the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) to implement simple tools, such as scorecards, accountability charts, and people management systems — changes that unlocked growth, revealed hidden problems, and ultimately prepared the business for a successful exit. Tune in to this episode of the Smart Business Revolution Podcast as John Corcoran interviews Michael Richman, Professional EOS Implementer at EOS Worldwide, about transitioning a legacy business and scaling with systems. Michael discusses custom manufacturing, high-trust B2B partnerships, and how the Entrepreneurs' Organization (EO) changed his trajectory.

They want robots.” “If you're going to embrace AI in the school system, you have to allow and enforce critical thinking.” “Lead by example. That's always been a core belief of mine, that I'm not just going to bark orders at you. Anything that I tell you to do is based on something that I've previously done or have experience with first.” “Don't be a content creator.

I Don't Have A Lot Of Friends.. And Why You Shouldn't Either

Watch the YouTube version of this episode HEREAre you looking for help on how to grow and market your firm? In this episode of the Maximum Lawyer, Tyson interviews Travis Hoechlin and Vaidas Cikotas about how law firms can grow beyond referrals by embracing modern marketing strategies. They highlight the risks of relying solely on referrals, the need for a strong online presence, and the importance of effective intake processes. Solely relying on referrals can limit the growth of a law firm. It is important to diversify clientele and how you get revenue. For some, relying on referrals means a firm doesn't need to take time to update their website or care about how they are perceived to people trying to figure out more. This can really become problematic because referrals are not always guaranteed and you are missing out on a large portion of people who you could engage with.Though marketing is an important aspect of a firm, poor processes can make efforts useless. You can market your firm to the point where you are getting a lot of calls and interest. But, if your intake process is not good or your staff are not on top of the phone line, you are losing interest from people who are going off of first impressions. It is important to establish good intake processes to ensure your firm can flourish.Take a listen to learn more!05:41 Risks of Referral-Only Growth09:22 Catching Up After Neglecting Marketing 12:56 Short-Term vs. Long-Term Marketing Strategies17:58 Why Marketing Efforts Sometimes Fail24:20 Improving Intake and Staff Training 27:51 Website Conversion Optimization TipsTune in to today's episode and checkout the full show notes here. Connect with RizeUp Media:Website  Instagram  Facebook  LinkedinX

Show Summary: In this episode of Grow My Accounting Practice, we welcome Ian Vacin, co-founder of Karbon and co-author of the upcoming book Scale with Purpose: The Service Entrepreneur's Guide to Intentional Growth, written with Jason Blumer. Together, they've drawn from over 25 years of experience advising, consulting, and mentoring service firm owners to create a practical roadmap for entrepreneurs who want to grow their businesses intentionally—not accidentally. Ian discusses why scaling a service-based business is about far more than just growth in numbers. He shares insights from the book, including how to optimize human capital, plan across different time horizons, and address the biggest challenge that keeps owners up at night: capacity. From understanding when your team is overworked or underutilized to navigating structural adjustments at different growth plateaus, Scale with Purpose offers proven tools and case studies that help owners maximize profitability while building sustainable businesses. Whether you're leading a small team or running a firm with dozens of employees, this conversation will give you a clear framework to scale consciously, manage your team effectively, and unlock the true enterprise value of your company.   Website:scalewithpurpose.info karbonhq.com/practice-excellence/ https://karbonhq.typeform.com/leader-survey   Corporate Partner:Miles Talent Hub - http://www.mileseducation.com Profit First App Version 2.0 is here!  More Education.

When the world shut down, Maria Hatzistefanis doubled down. In this episode, I sat down with the founder of Rodial and Nip+Fab, who shared exactly how she pivoted during the pandemic, scaled her beauty empire to 35 countries, and leveraged both old-school trade shows and new-school DTC strategies to build a global brand.Maria gets honest about the reality of expanding into international markets, the unexpected complexity of going truly global, and what it takes to stay relevant in an industry built on constant reinvention. Whether you're selling skincare or software, the lessons here are universal: stay close to your customer, stay curious, and be ready to evolve.Key Takeaways:Trade shows were instrumental in Rodial's early global strategy.Digital marketing and DTC became essential after losing wholesale revenue.Maria's shift to Instagram Stories helped her connect directly with customers.Success came from listening to market-specific needs (e.g. product formulations for Asia vs. the US).Hiring local teams is non-negotiable for successful international expansion.

America's AI action plan … “Winning the AI race” has just been announced. What is it all about? What are the implications? How will the rest of the world react? A deep dive into the announcement, approaches by EU and China, and overall implications of these action plans.Navigation:Intro (01:34)Context of the White House AI SummitPillar I – Accelerating AI InnovationPillar II – Building American AI InfrastructurePillar III – Leading in International AI Diplomacy & SecurityComparing Approaches – U.S. Action Plan vs. EU AI Act vs. China's StrategyImplications and SynthesisConclusionOur co-hosts:Bertrand Schmitt, Entrepreneur in Residence at Red River West, co-founder of App Annie / Data.ai, business angel, advisor to startups and VC funds, @bschmittNuno Goncalves Pedro, Investor, Managing Partner, Founder at Chamaeleon, @ngpedroOur show: Tech DECIPHERED brings you the Entrepreneur and Investor views on Big Tech, VC and Start-up news, opinion pieces and research. We decipher their meaning, and add inside knowledge and context. Being nerds, we also discuss the latest gadgets and pop culture news Subscribe To Our Podcast Nuno G. PedroWelcome to episode 68 of Tech Deciphered. This episode will focus on America's AI action plan, winning the AI race, which has just been announced a couple of weeks in by President Trump in the White House. Today, we'll be discussing the pillars of this plan, from pillar I, the acceleration of AI innovation, to pillar II, building of American AI infrastructure, to pillar III, leading in international AI diplomacy and security.We'll also further contextualise it, as well as compare the approaches between the US Action plan, and what we see from the EU and China strategy at this point in time. We'll finalise with implications and synthesis. Bertrand, is this a watershed moment for the industry? Is this the moment we were all waiting for in terms of clarity for AI in the US?Bertrand SchmittYeah, that's a great question. I must say I'm quite excited. I'm not sure I can remember anything like it since basically John F. Kennedy announcing the race to go to the moon in the early '60s. It feels, as you say, a watershed moment because suddenly you can see that there is a grand vision, a grand plan, that AI is not just important, but critical to the future success of America. It looks like the White House is putting all the ducks in order in order to make it happen. There is, like in the '60s with JFK, a realisation that there is an adversary, there is a competitor, and you want to beat them to that race. Except this time it's not Russia, it's China. A lot of similarities, I would say.Nuno G. PedroYeah. It seems relatively comprehensive. Obviously, we'll deep dive into it today across a variety of elements like regulation, investments, view in relation to exports and imports and the rest of the world. So, relatively comprehensive from what we can see. Obviously, we don't know all the details. We know from the announcement that the plan has identified 90 federal policy actions across the three pillars. Obviously, we'll see how these come into practice over the next few months, few years.To your point, it is a defining moment. It feels a little bit like the space race of '60s, et cetera. It's probably warranted. We know that, obviously, AI platforms, AI services and products are changing the world as we speak. It's pretty important to figure out what is the US response to it.Also interesting to know that we normally don't talk about the US too much in terms of industrial policy. The US seems to have a private sector that, in and of itself, actually stands up to the game, and in particular in tech and high-tech, normally fulfils or fills the gaps that are introduced by big generational shifts in terms of technology. But in this case, there seems to be an industrial policy. This seems to set the stage for that industrial policy and how it moves forward,

In publishing my first ever blog post, I suppose I had four primary objectives:First, to make a small contribution to the collective understanding, awareness and discussion surrounding issues of mental health, particularly that of Entrepreneurs and CEOs.Second, to simply discuss my challenges publicly. After all, if I didn't do my own part to contribute to the discussion around the worries, thoughts, and fears that Entrepreneurs and CEOs face, what right did I have to lament the fact that they weren't being discussed enough more broadly? Third, to speak to any leaders who might have been experiencing feelings similar to those which I had feltAnd, finally, to share some of the lessons that I had learned as a result of dealing with these challenges, some of which only became clear to me with the benefit of time and hindsightIn re-publishing that post today, my goals remain the very same. Though I had no plans or expectations after publishing the article in 2021, that single post was the first of 119 others that have followed over the past 4.5 years. I hope that at least one of these episodes has informed - perhaps even helped - some aspect of either your personal or professional life.

How size-inclusive is the bridal industry? In this episode, Associate Features Editor Ana Escalante breaks down her recent piece about her search for the perfect wedding dress as a plus-size bride. She and Editorial Director Lauren Eggertsen unpack the unfair dilemma that plus-size brides often find themselves in: either shopping for a mass market dress that doesn't suit their style, or paying tens of thousands for a custom gown because the demi couture boutiques don't offer their size. Ana shares clips of her interview with plus-size bridal stylist Alysia Cole about the bridal “fat tax” — as well as her interviews with bridal designers Alexandra Grecco and Jenny Yoo about what brands can do to make every bride feel beautiful. Plus, Ana and Lauren give their advice to any bride looking for the dress of their dreams.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

I was doing some research the other day on changing out some things in one of my businesses.    I asked ChatGPT what the number one struggle entrepreneurs face and it gave me one of the best answers.    It's not usually the business, it's the weight of the business.    Carrying the responsiblity alone.    Clients.    Partners, and employees may not fully understand the sacrifices made like balancing life and business, making payroll, cutting relationships that no longer support the business.    I created Apex so I could be surrounded by people that understood the challenges in my life.    I might be really good at marriage, but others are better in business.    Get surrounded by really good people with different skillsets than you.    Help those who don't have your skillsets.    Work to become better for you so you can be better for everyone else.    And help them.    That's what Apex is.    And I'm going to continue to build on that because I know it's something every single entrepreneur needs.    About the ReWire Podcast   The ReWire Podcast with Ryan Stewman – Dive into powerful insights as Ryan Stewman, the HardCore Closer, breaks down mental barriers and shares actionable steps to rewire your thoughts.

We have to know, like this is my genius, this is what I can help people with. But this is also the thing that I need help from other people's zones of genius because I need to make sure that this is good and clean and clear in my business.” - Julie Solomon  “  One of the biggest ways that people are missing out on money is they're too conservative when it comes to deductions.
