Podcasts about hope is not

Dear Listeners, the day after the 2024 Presidential Election many people were (are) feeling a WAY. So we decided to make a very special episode of Finding Good Bones, in case you need help sitting with the dark and looking towards the light. Kate and Amy bring some of the pieces speaking to them right now: “Hope Is the Thing With Feathers” by Emily Dickinson, “Hope Is Not a Bird, Emily, It's a Sewer Rat” by Caitlin Seida, Carpe Jugulum by Terry Pratchett. There's no political analysis, but there IS a free roaming three year old and at least one musical break. The discussion includes morality, mothering, niceness vs. kindness, an inevitable reckoning, and different ways hope can show up - a bird, a sewer rat, sometimes even a toddler.

Send us a Text Message.Today's episode is all about project management. I'm sure many of you have heard of this topic, but what exactly is it? My guest today, Kevin Pannell, breaks it down for us.Kevin is a project management professional in addition to having over 25 years of experience in leadership roles, critical care, incident command, military service, homeland security, and information technology. By now, you may be wondering what the connection is between project management and nursing.Well, let's face it, nurses are planners. You plan your care before every shift and are constantly making changes to that plan during your care delivery. So knowing the principles of project management is a great tool to have in your toolbox. But are you also serving on a unit based council or a shared governance committee? Maybe you've volunteered to lead a team on a project. This can be scary because you can hope you know what to do and that it ends well but having actionable plans will ensure your success, and Kevin delivers these expertly.Kevin is also the host of the popular podcast Hope is NOT a Plan, and through it brings people hope by giving actionable planning steps. As he says after every episode, "Hope is NOT a plan, but a good plan WILL bring people hope."In the five-minute snippet: gone are the good old days. For Kevin's bio, visit my website (link below).

Chuck is an expert on management skills, and he helps small businesses create processes to grow into big businesses. Chuck's background was as an executive in a huge company. He spent his entire adult life in “operations,” managing everything from supply chains to production floors to systems integrations.

In the interview, he gives advice on organizing time better, dealing with too many emails, how to deal with not having enough budget for a job, and much more.For details about Chuck's book, go to Hope Is Not a Business Strategy. 

We tend to believe that if we have more time, we can finally accomplish that goal or dream we've been putting off. Michelle and Sammie noticed that when they do have free time, they still don't apply themselves diligently to their biggest dreams. In Scott Young's book, Ultralearning, the first step he outlines is to build a curriculum for your Ultralearning project. Michelle and Sammie use this idea for their "retirement" curriculum and each make a plan for building a skill. Michelle plans to tackle writing and Sammie plans to focus on being present and meditating.

He doesn’t think it can be reformed. Marchand is an abolitionist. For a century and a half, Canada has hidden away disabled people in institutions where they were neglected and abused.

There are no shortcuts in building a business. That s why those insidious "instant success" stories are dangerous to real, working businesses. Here is one of those stories and my reaction to it. The post Hope Is Not a Marketing Plan appeared first on Control Mouse Media.

If you liked this interview, please go to iTunes and subscribe. Have you ever bought a pen or cup or flash drive to put your logo on it and pass it out? If you have, have you ever been able to measure the return on your investment? If you are like 90% of the people who purchase swag or promotional products, then you have never seen a measurable return on your investment. That’s for good reason. It’s not your fault. Every one of the 90% don’t actually realize you can make a return on promotional products, but you can. That’s what this episode of the Sell More podcast is going to share with you...how to use promotional products to make money. You can be an offline business or an online business. It doesn’t matter. Any size and any type of business can do it. Our guest, Ed Levy, will share with you exactly how. Let’s go!!   Introducing Ed Levy - The King of Promotional Products ROO Meet my good friend and client, Ed Levy. Ed is a veteran in the promotional products industry. Starting Edventure Promotions over 10 years ago, he has built a very nice sized business...predominately from word of mouth. Within the last year is when he has really started to focus on marketing the business. That says a lot about their ability to deliver on their work with clients. Ed and the entire team take a very hands on approach with their clients as well as empowering them to have the flexibility of making repeat orders at any time with their ecommerce website. A recipe for a very successful company in the 21st century. Their philosophy of Hope Is Not a F*#@ing Strategy has lead to a few awards and a lot more return on their client’s objections. Ed has a different way of thinking of promotional products. It’s more of a conversational tool than a “cool” item to hand out to people. He’ll tell you all about it in the show.   Heart of the Interview Using promotional products to achieve your goals is like any other marketing channel. It’s start with a strategy and takes a concentrated effort. Ed share with us: How to get an ROO or return on your objection Examples of how, when executed properly, promotional products will produce amazing results and triple your money back   Key Takeaways Promotional products is “The I Got a Guy” Industry Buy the same thing from anyone which makes it even more commoditized than a real estate broker   Two ways to use promotional products - Brand Awareness and Increasing Business When you realize you can increase business using promotional products, it opens your eyes to a brand new horizon The reason for failing is because the messaging doesn’t align with the cool product Usefulness of a promotional product is more important than anything else Hope is not a F*@king strategy It’s the packaging of the promotional product more compelling   What You Can Do To Sell More There are a lot of ways to use promotional products to get a return. There are also millions of products. To truly get the most bang for your buck, you need a strategy. You need to know your sales number. And you need to know your sales process. Without any of that information, you are hoping. And hope is not a f*@#ing strategy. Hope doesn’t produce results. Start with understanding your numbers and your process. Then, think of your audience. What items will be useful to them and how can you use it start a conversation. When you send people what you do based on your strategy, you are NOT selling anymore...you are getting a chance to ask them questions. The questions lead to relationships and relationships lead to happy clients.   Contact Info for Ed Download the ED-Book - How To Get an ROI - here
