Podcasts about grow your business

Do you feel behind because you are not tech savvy, not loud online, or not everywhere on social media? Maybe you have wondered if building a real business is even possible when you want simplicity, margin, and time for your family. In this episode, I sit down with Podcast to Profit student Michelle Rose, who openly describes herself as a non-techy grandma. Michelle shares how she started a podcast feeling completely clueless, but now runs two podcasts, one ranking in the top 3 percent globally! She signs new clients weekly, and is growing an email list with an over 50 percent open rate, all without relying on social media or hustle. This conversation is a reminder that you do not need to overcomplicate what God is asking you to do. A thriving business can be quiet, simple, and aligned with your real life. Let Michelle's story help you trust the process God has for you and build in a way that fits your season. I pray this blesses you!   Ready to Start or Grow Your Business and Make Consistent Income From a Podcast?  Join my FREE, LIVE 5-Day Profitable Podcast Bootcamp!

Hey Winner, What if you could grow your business without posting daily, building a massive platform, or launching your own podcast? In this episode, I'm joined by Dustin Reichmann, founder of 7-Figure Leap, to talk about using podcast guesting as a smart, sustainable growth strategy. Dustin breaks down how entrepreneurs can borrow audiences, build trust quickly, and turn interviews into real leads and clients. We dig into his 5P framework for landing hard-to-get podcast interviews, how to pitch in a way that actually gets a “yes,” and how to share your story so it leads to revenue, not just visibility. If you want a simpler path to growth that doesn't depend on social media or constant content creation, this episode will open your eyes to what's possible.

What happens when high income still does not give you freedom, time, or peace of mind? In this episode of Grow Your Business & Grow Your Wealth, Gary Heldt sits down with Joey Muré, co founder of Wealth Without Wall Street, to challenge traditional thinking around money, retirement, and success. Joey shares his personal journey from earning a high income in the mortgage industry to realizing that his money was not working for him. Together, they unpack why knowledge alone does not lead to financial freedom, how systems matter more than strategies, and why passive income aligned with values can change both your calendar and your life.Key Takeaways → High income does not automatically create financial freedom → Financial freedom means passive income exceeds monthly expenses → Most people are stuck because they lack a system, not information → Retirement accounts often delay freedom instead of accelerating it → Investor DNA matters when choosing the right income vehicles → Aligning money with faith and values creates long term clarity and peaceQuote from the Episode“My money wasn't working for me. It was creating more demand on my time and pulling me away from the people I cared about most.”.Call to ActionTo learn more and access free resources from Joey, visit https://www.wealthwithoutwallstreet.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Do you feel overwhelmed, unsure, and frustrated from striving to get it all right as a woman of faith in business? Are you carrying pressure to measure up, wondering if you are falling short spiritually and professionally at the same time? Many women look at the Proverbs 31 woman and feel less-than rather than led.   In this episode, we shift that lens. You will see the Proverbs 31 woman not as an impossible standard, but as one of the most strategic women in Scripture. We unpack what her life actually shows us about stewardship, calling, and building with God. This is not about perfection. It is about alignment, purpose, and faithful leadership.   This episode will help you stop striving and start seeing what is possible for you as a woman who serves God through her work. You will walk away with a new perspective on calling, clarity around your role as a Kingdom builder, and peace in the way God is inviting you to grow.   I pray this blesses you!   LINKS MENTIONED: *If you purchase from these links, I receive a small commission: Find the Leather Bible here!

Plus, they get wonderfully sidetracked talking about fancy chairs, flash cows, and the importance of sniffing your children's heads for a dopamine hit.Because we contain multitudes, darlings.

Are you starting with no audience, no email list, and no real idea if this can actually work for you? Are you showing up, trying to be faithful, but wondering if results are only for everyone else? If you feel confused or unsure whether your obedience will ever turn into traction, I want you to lean in.   In today's episode, I'm sharing Jessica Przulj's story, a Podcast to Profit student who started from zero. No list. No audience. No momentum. Just a willingness to learn, show up, and follow God's lead.

If this worked for her, could it work for me, too?   I pray this blesses you!   Ready to Start or Grow Your Business and Make Consistent Income From a Podcast?

Send us a textThis cluster of announcements illustrates how enterprise software vendors are converging on monetizable AI, composable ecosystems, and domain-specific depth rather than headline platform reinvention. Product expansions such as BillingPlatform's RevenueIQ suite, Epicor's outcomes-based ERP AI agent, and BlackLine's Verity for the CFO signal a shift toward AI that is tightly anchored to measurable financial and operational outcomes. At the same time, M&A and alliances—including IFS acquiring 7bridges, Salesforce's planned acquisition of Regrello, QAD partnering with Esker, and Versori partnering with Fluent Commerce—reinforce a strategy of filling execution gaps through targeted capabilities rather than broad-suite sprawl. Underpinning much of this activity, Oracle's deployment of GPT-5 across its database and SaaS portfolio underscores how foundational AI services are becoming embedded infrastructure, while workforce and go-to-market expansions from ActivTrak and Capacity's acquisition of KLaunch highlight continued investment in productivity, adoption, and execution at the edges of the enterprise stack.In today's episode, we invited a panel of industry analysts for a live discussion on LinkedIn to analyze current enterprise software stories. We covered many grounds, including the direction and roadmaps of each enterprise software vendor. Finally, we analyzed future trends and how they might shape the enterprise software industry.Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KdCqxl1NXBIQuestions for Panelists?

Get free marketing videos from Donald Miller every week at:  https://WeeklySoundbite.com/   Companies love to talk about themselves—how they started, what they value, what makes them different. But your story isn't what sells. In fact, it could be what's holding you back. When your pitch, your website, or your brand story starts with you, your potential customers tune out fast. Why? Because they're not looking for a hero. They're looking for help. And if you don't lead with their problem, they'll find someone else who does. So how do you tell your story in a way that actually connects, converts, and grows your business?   In this episode, Donald Miller unpacks why most businesses fumble their messaging when they lead with their own story, and shows you how to do it right. You'll learn the real purpose of your company's story, exactly when to tell it, and the simple storytelling formula that turns your backstory into a trust-building, revenue-driving asset.

Send us a textWhen evaluating the CRM category, our analysis intentionally moves beyond CRM modules embedded within ERP systems and instead focuses on best-of-breed CRM platforms and the full spectrum of capabilities that define modern customer engagement. This includes not only core operational CRM functions such as sales force automation and pipeline management, but also upstream marketing automation, downstream customer experience and service workflows, contact center operations, events, search, and the increasing convergence with CMS and website capabilities that anchor the digital customer journey. While vendors may brand these pillars as Sales Cloud, Marketing Cloud, or reposition them around AI- and agentic-workflow narratives, the underlying architecture remains consistent, and strategic orientation matters: some platforms are designed for specific micro-verticals with tightly integrated suites, while others pursue broad horizontal coverage. These choices materially affect extensibility, process design, and long-term fit, particularly across B2B versus B2C use cases, where many CRM systems struggle with complex B2B sales cycles—driving continued demand for low-code and no-code customization and deeper integration across CRM, eCommerce, and CMS ecosystems.In this episode, our host Sam Gupta discusses the top 10 CRM systems in 2026. He also discusses several variables that influence the rankings of these CRM systems. Finally, he shares the pros and cons of each CRM system.Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kBLUBdDuWQcRead: https://www.elevatiq.com/post/top-erp-systems/Questions for Panelists?

What if building wealth was not about money but about the life and impact you leave behind? Morgan Nichols believes legacy is not something you build at retirement. It is something you create every day through intentional decisions, values-based planning, and clarity around what truly matters. In this episode of Grow Your Business & Grow Your Wealth, Gary Heldt sits down with Morgan Nichols, CEO and Private Wealth Advisor of LifeBranch Wealth Partners, for a powerful conversation about intentional legacy, business ownership, succession planning, and the emotional side of financial decision-making. Morgan shares her journey into leadership, stepping into business ownership at 31 during one of the most volatile financial markets in modern history. She explains why real financial planning goes far beyond portfolio management and why business owners need coaching, clarity, and long-term strategy to build wealth with purpose. This episode is a masterclass in intentional growth, values-driven success, and creating a legacy that lasts for generations. Five Key Takeaways  - Legacy is built through daily decisions, not just financial outcomes True wealth is measured by the values you live by and the impact you create along the way.  - Business owners need a coach, not just an advisor The best financial planning goes deeper than statements and portfolios. It provides holistic guidance and decision support.  - Intentional planning replaces uncertainty with clarity Strategic planning removes the fog of uncertainty and gives business owners confidence in their future.  - Succession and contingency planning protect your family and your business Preparing for the unexpected ensures your family is protected and your business continues smoothly.  - There is no perfect balance. Only priorities Life is about choosing which priority takes the front seat in each season. Featured Quote “When you have an intentional legacy, it is realizing that all the money in the world does not necessarily add meaning to one's life. It is really all the decisions that you make along the way.” - Morgan Nichols If you are a business owner or professional who wants to build wealth with purpose and create a legacy that lasts, this episode is for you.

Send us a textEnterprise software vendors are tightening execution around AI enablement, workflow depth, and operational recovery rather than pursuing broad platform reinvention. Acquisition activity—from Sage moving to acquire Fyle, to SYSPRO acquiring DATASCOPE, Zendesk completing its acquisition of HyperArc, and Contentsquare acquiring Loris AI—signals a continued emphasis on capability-led expansion tightly aligned to core use cases. In parallel, AI product announcements from NetSuite, Sage Intacct, Zoho, and Zendesk emphasize connectors, agents, and embedded intelligence designed to improve productivity within existing workflows rather than displace them. Finally, the case of AAON underscores the operational reality behind these trends: ERP value is ultimately realized not through announcements or AI features alone, but through disciplined execution, stabilization, and long-term operational turnarounds—particularly in complex manufacturing environments where recovery often matters more than rapid transformation.In today's episode, we invited a panel of industry analysts for a live discussion on LinkedIn to analyze current enterprise software stories.

Send us a textBefore reviewing the top ERP systems for 2026, it is essential to align on how ERP systems are defined in this analysis: the focus is on individual ERP products, not the vendors that own them. This distinction matters because products within the same vendor portfolio can receive materially different levels of strategic attention, R&D investment, and roadmap momentum, which directly affects long-term viability and customer outcomes. A large enterprise vendor, for example, may maintain a mid-market ERP offering while concentrating innovation on a flagship platform, increasing buyer risk if the selected product is not core to the vendor's strategy. The list, therefore, spans organizations of different sizes and industries and groups systems into generic and prescriptive categories, each with distinct tradeoffs—prescriptive systems prioritizing faster implementations and tighter alignment to defined business models, and generic systems offering broader industry coverage and long-term flexibility. As each system is evaluated, emphasis is placed on size fit, supported business models, suite-centric versus ecosystem-driven integration approaches, and the balance between native functionality and partner-dependent capabilities.In this episode, our host Sam Gupta discusses the top 10 ERP systems in 2026.

What happens when building wealth stops being about returns and starts being about purpose? In this episode of Grow Your Business & Grow Your Wealth, Gary Heldt sits down with Tiffany Irving, Senior Vice President and Wealth Advisor at Mesirow Wealth Management. With more than 25 years of experience, Tiffany explains why modern wealth management must go beyond investments and focus on holistic planning, collaboration, and long-term impact. The conversation dives into exit planning for business owners, common mistakes made when selling a company, the emotional side of succession, and why financial planning should start far earlier than most people think. Tiffany also shares insights on financial literacy, debt management, and the growing importance of purpose-driven investing. Key Takeaways→ Wealth management today is about integrating investments, tax planning, estate planning, and personal goals.→ Business owners should begin exit planning three to five years before selling to maximize value and reduce taxes.→ A collaborative advisory team creates better outcomes than siloed advice.→ Succession planning must address both financial readiness and emotional identity shifts.→ Financial planning is not just for the wealthy and is most powerful when started early. Quote from Tiffany “Wealth management is no longer just about performance. It's about purpose, values, and the impact you want your money to have.” If you are a business owner thinking about growth, succession, or long-term financial clarity, this episode is a must-listen.

In today's episode, I'm talking about one of the biggest shifts you can make as a business owner: moving from doing everything yourself to truly leveraging your time as a CEO. I break down a powerful mindset and structural exercise I use with my mastermind clients to get them out of the day-to-day, create real capacity, and stop building a business that only works if they're constantly in it. If you've been feeling overwhelmed, stretched thin, or stuck in client delivery with no space to grow, this conversation will challenge how you see your role, your time, and what it actually takes to build a sustainable, scalable business.

Send us a textERP and adjacent platform vendors are simultaneously deepening vertical specialization, expanding AI distribution, and accelerating ecosystem-led growth. M&A activity from Advantive acquiring PINPoint, SYSPRO acquiring DATASCOPE, and Sage moving to acquire Fyle reinforces a continued focus on capability-driven expansion rather than broad horizontal reinvention. Product and platform updates from Deltek, Rootstock Software, and NetSuite emphasize AI-assisted productivity, localization, and integration flexibility as table stakes for mid-market and upper-mid-market buyers. At the same time, distribution and partnership strategies—such as Pipefy partnering with Oracle, Sage Intacct listing AI agents on AWS Marketplace, and Versori partnering with SYSPRO—signal a broader shift toward ecosystem-led AI adoption, where value is increasingly delivered through connectors, agents, and composable services rather than monolithic ERP releases.In today's episode, we invited a panel of industry analysts for a live discussion on LinkedIn to analyze current enterprise software stories. We covered many grounds, including the direction and roadmaps of each enterprise software vendor. Finally, we analyzed future trends and how they might shape the enterprise software industry.Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gLp0RsgggwsQuestions for Panelists?

Send us a textBefore reviewing the top ERP vendors for 2026, it is critical to align on what “ERP vendors” actually represent in this analysis: companies, not individual ERP systems. This distinction is essential because most vendors operate multi-product portfolios that span different company sizes, industries, and deployment models, making vendor-level strategy and capital allocation far more predictive of long-term outcomes than isolated feature comparisons. Our evaluation framework, therefore, balances macro forces—such as market share, valuation signals, R&D investment patterns, and acquisition strategy—with micro forces, including product depth, functional coverage, and architectural direction across each portfolio. These dimensions are tightly interconnected; a vendor may have a flagship product that is thriving while adjacent offerings receive limited investment, creating materially different risk profiles depending on which product a buyer selects and how that product fits into the vendor's broader strategic priorities.In this episode, our host Sam Gupta discusses the top 10 ERP vendors in 2026. He also discusses several variables that influence the rankings of these ERP vendors. Finally, he shares the pros and cons of each ERP vendor.Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XpWhz5MbqTMRead: https://www.elevatiq.com/post/top-10-erp-vendors/Questions for Panelists?

What Most People Get Wrong About Public Speaking (And How to Do It Strategically) What's the secret to getting paid for your perspective? From virtual events to in-person stages, paid speaking is an incredible way to grow your authority, gain visibility, and win over new subscribers and customers. But how do you land a quality gig?  In today's episode, I'm sitting down with Jess Ekstrom, bestselling author, professional keynote speaker, and founder of Mic Drop Workshop to talk about just that. Jess is sharing exactly how speaking works today, how to price yourself with confidence, and how to turn speaking into a powerful growth lever for your business. We talk about what event planners actually pay for, why your story matters more than your pitch, how women can close the pay gap in speaking, and the smartest ways to negotiate so every speaking gig creates momentum beyond the stage. HERE ARE THE 3 KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE: 1️⃣ Speaking Isn't About Selling Your Business, It's About Sharing the Lesson – People don't pay for an elevator pitch. They pay for the universal takeaway from your experience. Your business becomes the story that supports the lesson, not the headline of your talk. 2️⃣ Your Speaking Fee Is Based on Your Knowledge, Not the Size of the Stage – Audience size and talk length don't determine your rate. Your experience, expertise, and the value of your message do. Some of the highest-paying gigs happen in small rooms. 3️⃣ Every Speaking Gig Can Create Ongoing Business Growth – From bundling your course into your speaking fee to collecting leads with a simple QR code, speaking can fuel your email list, sales, and referrals long after you leave the stage. CHAPTERS: 08:49 – Why Paid Speaking Isn't About Big Stages 09:24 – How Speaking Fuels Business Growth Without Selling 13:16 – The Gender Gap in Paid Speaking 15:25 – What New Speakers Should Charge 17:20 – Why Audience Size Doesn't Affect Your Fee 24:17 – Speaking for Free vs. Getting Paid 27:04 – The Lighthouse vs. Spotlight Speaker Shift 33:46 – First Steps to Getting Booked 37:05 – Common Mistakes New Speakers Make 40:41 – How to Get Started with Speak On Stage RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: - Learn more about Jess Ekstrom and Mic Drop Workshop - Follow Jess on Instagram @jessekstrom - Watch Jess's TED Talk MORE FROM ME Follow me on Instagram @amyporterfield SUBSCRIBE & REVIEW If you loved this episode, please take a moment to subscribe and leave a review on Apple Podcasts!

Send us a textAI commercialization and regulatory scrutiny are reshaping the market. Product announcements from SAP, Unit4, Deltek, Sage Intacct, and NetSuite highlight continued investment in cloud distribution, verticalized functionality, and embedded AI—often via hyperscaler marketplaces and agent frameworks—while transactions such as SYSPRO acquiring riteSOFT and Advantive acquiring PINPoint reinforce the ongoing push toward capability-led M&A in manufacturing and asset-centric environments. Partnerships like Pipefy with Oracle reflect the race to operationalize generative AI beyond experimentation, while the antitrust ruling involving SAP and the shareholder investigation into Lamb Weston Holdings serve as a reminder that legal, regulatory, and governance forces remain an active counterweight to rapid innovation.In today's episode, we invited a panel of industry analysts for a live discussion on LinkedIn to analyze current enterprise software stories.

When you write a book, you're not just sharing your knowledge, you're planting the seeds for long-term growth. Your book can open unexpected doors: attracting ideal clients, boosting your visibility, and positioning you as a trusted authority in your space. But to make that kind of impact, you need more than a finished manuscript—you need a strategy that helps your book connect with the right people and lead them back to your business. That's exactly why I started the Biz Book Pub Hub. It's a free resource where experts, authors, and writers come together to support each other through every stage of the book journey—from blank page to book launch and beyond. You can explore all of it at www.BizBookPubHub.com . Today, I'm excited to introduce two incredible authors: Antonio Valles wrote “Empower Your Presentation Skills: The Confident Entrepreneur's Guide to Grow Your Business,” a hands-on guide for professionals ready to level up their speaking skills and use presentations as a tool for building authority and closing more business. Kathy Sparrow is the author of “Ignite Your Leadership: Proven Tools to Energize Teams, Fuel Momentum, and Accelerate Results,” a book packed with powerful tools and insights to help leaders inspire their teams and create lasting organizational success. Please join me in welcoming Antonio and Kathy.  In this episode, we discuss the following:

Most people are heading into 2026 thinking they need to do more on LinkedIn.- More posts.- More formats.- More features.- More noise.- That's not the move.In this episode, “The Three Priorities You Must Have on LinkedIn in 2026,” I break down what actually drives visibility, engagement, and revenue moving forward, and what you can safely stop overcomplicating.Here's the truth:LinkedIn doesn't reward hustle.It rewards clarity, consistency, and connection.The three priorities every professional needs dialed in are:1. First, your LinkedIn profile.If your profile doesn't clearly communicate who you help, how you help them, and why it matters, no amount of content will convert. Your profile is not a resume in 2026. It's your positioning page.2. Second, who you're connecting with.Growth is not about adding more people. It's about adding the right people, ideal clients and business allies who can lead to conversations, collaborations, referrals, and opportunities. Random connections dilute results.3. Third, and most importantly....your content.Not content for likes.Not content for trends.But content that builds know, like, and trust.Quality content is what turns visibility into credibility.Credibility into conversations.And conversations into revenue.If your content doesn't engage the right audience in the right way, nothing else works.This episode walks through how these three priorities work together as a system, and how to simplify your LinkedIn strategy so it actually supports your business goals in 2026.If you want LinkedIn to stop feeling noisy, unpredictable, or exhausting, start here.Click HERE if you'd like to register for our "Amateur to Expert on LinkedIn" 5-Day workshop from Jan 26th - 30th.

Send us a textDigital transformation trends for 2026 reflect a convergence of sustained macroeconomic pressure and meaningful shifts in enterprise-level decision-making, requiring organizations to adopt a more disciplined, systems-oriented approach to technology and investment. While the external environment is expected to remain broadly consistent with 2025—marked by geopolitical volatility, tariffs, constrained supply chains, and modest economic growth—policy-driven forces around data sovereignty, regulation, and national security are increasingly reshaping cloud strategies, workload placement, and vendor risk exposure. At the same time, relatively stable interest rates reinforce a cautious capital environment where ROI, resilience, and operating efficiency take precedence over experimentation.
