In this solo episode, host Meghan Lynch, CEO of Six-Point Strategy, unpacks why “letting your work speak for itself” no longer cuts it—especially for generational businesses. She reframes brand as your transferable reputation, shares an example client story, and outlines how intentional brand strategy fuels growth, attracts talent, and boosts enterprise value.Key Topics DiscussedReframe brand as reputation you actively shape - not logos or taglines.Identify mindsets that stall growth - status-quo comfort, craft-first pride, and misconceptions about brand.Learn from one family business's example: protect distinct visual IP, focus categories, prune underperformers, and integrate customer feedback to regain leadership.Spot the hidden costs of ignoring brand - plateaus, missed “return on luck,” hiring/retention friction, and valuation drag.Build a brand that outlasts a single leader - make trust transferable across generations and management.Take the leadership challenge - audit whether your brand is working for or against you, and where clarity is missing.Connect with Meghan Lynch on LinkedIn or visit Six-Point StrategyBuilding Unbreakable Brands is hosted by Meghan LynchProduced by Six-Point Strategy

Welcome back to the Crushing It In Construction Podcast!This week, Jordan sits down with Nic Parish - a man who went from designing chairs in college to co-owning and running his family's heavy civil, trucking, and dumpster businesses in Mississippi. But this isn't your typical "third-generation success story." Nic's grandfather famously sat him down and begged him: "Please don't do this. Go do anything but this. You do not want this life."He ignored the advice, bought in, and quickly learned why he got the warning. The pressure of the business led him to a dark place where the only way out felt like suicide -a story he shares with shocking honesty.We dive into how that moment became a catalyst for change, forcing him to take 10 days off (the "best career decision he ever made") and ultimately leading him to implement the EOS system that transformed everything.Let's get it started!Connect with Nic Parish:LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/nicparish/Website:https://www.burnsdirt.com/Connect with Jordan Skinner:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jordanaskinner/Website: https://moonshotmedia.com.au/Ever wonder if you're being paid what you're worth?

Send us a textLaura stops by the show, to discuss her latest release, Chicago, growing up Catholic, and more.*****Laura Sawosko's songs not only reflect her personal journey, but draw you into your own, through ruthless honesty and vivid imagery. Her vocal technique is raw and unrehearsed which parallels her guitar, while the piano introduces another unexpected layer of melodic and technical grace.Laura was the keyboardist in her former band Surrender Dorothy that opened for the 1999 Phoenix Lilith Fair with Sarah McLachlin, Sheryl Crow, Martina McBride and Dido. She began her ambitious solo career as a singer/songwriter in 2000 after she graduated Cum Laude with a degree in Broadcasting and Music Composition from Arizona State University. Laura composed the original score for the gay friendly independent film, An Intimate Friendship, by Filling The Gap Productions. The film was acclaimed by audiences globally after headlining both national and international film festivals. Laura is no stranger to the film industry. You may have seen Laura on NBC's #1 rated show, Fear Factor. In a brave effort to win the grand prize to assist in her music career, she had the unique opportunity of riding a bull in Season 2. A few years later, she submitted a video that was a winner on ABC's America's Funniest Home Videos. As a member of Chicks With Picks during her time in Arizona, she had the opportunity to open for Country artist Sarah Buxton and Michelle Branch. She later had the privilege of opening for another one of her mentors, Edwin McCain, on the Cayamo music cruise. Laura moved to Nashville in 2010 to pursue her songwriting career. She quickly became affiliated with NSAI and ASCAP. She has performed at the famous Bluebird Cafe, The Listening Room, The Local, Douglas Corner, Bobby's Idle Hour and numerous other renowned local venues. Publishers and mentors have recognized Laura for her descriptive storytelling with a poetic undertone. She recorded her album The Songwriters in Nashville with Producer Vaughn Lofstead. The album consists of 14 songs and her title track, The Songwriters, was chosen by Publisher Woody Bomar to open his reknowed songwriting seminars in Nashville.Laura is a true artist and storyteller. She is passionate about her craft and expresses that unwavering dedication in her song The Songwriters when she writes “not all of us will be heard, but there's nothing we'd rather be. We are the Songwriters of Nashville Tennessee”. *****If you would like to contact the show about being a guest, please email us at Dauna@bettertopodcast.comUpcoming guests can be found: https://dmneedom.com/upcoming-guest Follow us on Social MediaInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/author_d.m.needom/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bettertopodcastwithdmneedomIntro and Outro music compliments of Fast Suzi©2025 Better To...Podcast with D.

Are you a family business owner who thinks you can just snap your fingers and sell your business for top dollar when you're ready to retire?In this eye-opening episode, Gary Heldt sits down with Lowell Mora, President of Impact CFO, who brings 35 years of financial leadership experience to small and medium-sized businesses. Lowell shares his journey from Arthur Andersen to helping family-owned businesses prepare for successful exits. Lowell reveals the shocking statistic that nearly half of all family-owned businesses end up in bankruptcy within two years of the founder's death due to lack of planning. Lowell discusses the critical differences between traditional accounting/tax services and strategic CFO work, emphasizing the importance of 3-5 year exit planning, building strong management teams, and viewing your business as an asset rather than just an income stream.Key Takeaways ➤ Nearly half of all family-owned businesses go bankrupt within two years of the founder's death due to lack of succession planning. ➤ Most family businesses suffer from dangerous customer concentration (often 70% with one client) and lack strong autonomous management teams - both major red flags for potential buyers. ➤ You need 3-5 years of strategic preparation before selling your business, including professionalizing accounting records, conducting margin analysis, and building operational systems. ➤ There's a crucial difference between your tax-preparing CPA and a fractional CFO - one looks backward for tax compliance, the other looks forward for business growth and exit strategy. ➤ Business owners must shift their mindset from viewing their company as an income stream to seeing it as an asset that needs to be optimized for maximum value.Notable Quotes from Lowell Mora"I've never met a business owner who thought their business was worth less than what it was. Typically, they are amazed that there's no real intrinsic value from an EBITDA perspective at a point in time - there's work that needs to be done.""What happens if you get hit by a bus? Your spouse will be okay because you have life insurance, but you have nobody to run this business. All these employees you treat as family will be grieving you AND dealing with a business crisis."How to Reach Lowell MoraEmail: Lowell@impact-cfo.netPhone: 847-212-4081Website: https://www.impactcfo.net/Visit his website for free consultation scheduling, 13-week cash flow samples, and additional resources for business owners planning their exit strategy.
