Welcome to the Best of How to Live a Fantastic Life. Dr. Allen Lycka is joined by Jabez LeBret, a dynamic entrepreneur whose journey from being a homeless teen to a successful business owner is truly inspiring. Jabez reflects on how his challenging upbringing, including his mother's struggles with schizophrenia, shaped his resilience and resourcefulness. He credits his high school science teacher as his first mentor and discusses the critical role of mentorship and community in his growth. Jabez also shares his dedication to empowering female founders, motivated by data on their challenges and his experience running a tuition-free all-girls boarding school focused on entrepreneurship. He emphasizes the importance of building supportive communities where female entrepreneurs can connect and thrive. Jabez's story is a powerful example of how to lead a fulfilling, balanced life while making a positive impact. About Jabez LeBret began his entrepreneurial journey in 2007 with his first company, which unfortunately ended in failure. Undeterred, he co-founded GNGF, a marketing agency for law firms, in 2010. Under his leadership, GNGF grew to over $1 million in revenue in under three years, earning accolades such as Best Place to Work, the BBB Torch Award, and Business of the Year. In 2018, Jabez sold the agency to open a boarding school for underserved youth. Currently, he runs Aguia Ventures, a conglomerate of multiple companies spanning both B2B and B2C markets, headquartered in Washington.

Social PR Secrets: public relations podcast for entrepreneurs by Lisa Buyer
What’s the best way to get a journalist to cover your news? How do you become a writing contributor at an esteemed publication? Why isn’t ROI a complete enough measurement? In this episode, journalist and former agency owner Jabez LeBret shares his insider secrets. In this new episode of the Social PR Podcast, host Lisa Buyer sits down with Forbes Magazine contributor, former marketing agency owner, and CEO of Applejax, Jabez LeBret. Like so many of us, Jabez started in the corporate world before becoming an entrepreneur and founding his own agency. He focused on digital marketing, working exclusively with law firms. He then sold it to pursue a career in education. Additionally, Jabez has been a journalist for the past twelve years. He started writing for a Chicago NBC affiliate and is now a regular contributor at Forbes. Start Off Small If you’ve been listening to the Social PR Podcast regularly, you will know that Lisa believes in starting off small. Jabez couldn’t agree more. He advises publishing your first pieces in local, specialized publications before moving your way up. He also recommends getting your start by collaborating with clients or other agencies. The main thing to remember? The big publications will not necessarily be the best returns on efforts. How to Pitch a Journalist As a journalist, Jabez gets pitched all the time. But usually, it’s pretty clear that agencies have not done any research on his work, so pitching does not get them far. That’s what’s challenging, Jabez explains. He always needs access to more content, but most of that issue is not solved by pitches, because the pitches are not qualitative. His tip for agency owners is to target the people whose pieces you know you want to be featured in. Then, engage them in their world. Follow them on LinkedIn, comment on their posts, meet them at a conference. You can then email them with a question about an article, or ask for clarification or additional information. If your comments add value to the journalist, you’ve got yourself a great introduction. Try to define what their audience cares about and pitch them something that will matter to them and get the journalist more views. Becoming a Forbes Contributor Jabez writes a monthly column for Forbes and has been a contributor for more than seven years. The best way to get in, according to him, is to write for a local affiliate first. Then, once you’ve accumulated enough quality clips, take them to another publication you want to write for. Forbes is looking for people who can write in a non-opinionated way. They also seek out people with sources and connections they can interview. When asked how to get creative and find new angles, Jabez recommended talking with other people. You will realize that so much of what you believe to be common knowledge is actually valuable and unique to most people. Additionally, you do not have to be the one creating the next cool thing. As long as you provide an interesting analysis of the next cool thing, you will get published and build a following. How can you write a book in a few days? Why is the conversion rate often passive?

I talk this episode with Jabez Lebret, entrepreneur and new CEO of Applejax. https://www.applejax.com Jabez has started and runs multiple companies from video production to branding to education. Jabez shares his proudest moment in his entrepreneurial journey to date, a story about a trunk, and his favorite business books. Jabez’s all-time favorite business book is Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion by Robert Cialdini which explains how people make decisions. He finds this applies in all interactions and relationships at work, at home, and in your personal life. Quite a foundational read! And he just finished Blitzscaling: The Lightning-Fast Path to Building Massively Valuable Companies by Reid Hoffman & Chris Yeh about how to build “bajillion dollar companies”. Watch for Jabez’s insights. I hope you enjoy my conversation with Jabez.

Jabez LeBret is a NBC Chicago Business Columnist, author, speaker, and Chief Marketing Officer of GNGF. Jabez is considered a leading authority on monetizing social media and often speaks at industry conferences on this subject. In today's episode, I discuss with Jabez on how to work with millennials. I know many clients who are having challenges with keeping the millennial generation engaged, so hopefully we can demystify and solve some of those issues for you today. There are four core fundamentals that really help millennials succeed at work. Not only do you get them to work more effectively, but it changes the whole work environment for them too. These four tactics are actually good for any employee, no matter what their age. With that being said, these fundamentals are specifically targeted to get that everyday millennial employee to the next level. As a millennial himself, Jabez really stumbled into this space by accident. He was doing leadership presentations at companies that needed to know how to lead the younger generation. He kept getting asked, "How do I manage you?" He also runs a company where his entire team is made of millennials. So for him, it was a no-brainer to create a program around how to manage and engage millennials in the work force. The millennial generation is different compared to other generations because they saw the creation of search on the internet. They grew up with Google and they were the reason social media was created. Cellphones were very prevalent for them too. The technological advances play a huge role in the millennial workplace. Another unique aspect about millennials is that they had helicopter parents. Unlike older generations where both parents were working and the children took care of themselves, millennials had parents that were hyper involved with their lives. Parents made sure they were participating in all the necessary activities. Through that process, millennials grew up thinking their opinions matter. Millennials are also referred to as 'The Trophy Generation' - They got a trophy for just showing up. Millennials were rewarded for participating and if participation was the only thing that mattered, if it was never about 'winning', then they will take criticism or feedback badly. At the end of the day, millennials want purpose. They are a purpose-driven generation and that's how you keep them engaged. Companies are having a hard time delivering this to them because they don't know their own values or even their mission. The goal of a manager working with millennials is to bake the purpose of everything into the process, why these tasks are important in the grand scheme of things and how it helps the end-mission of the company. Millennials also grew up in team environments. Despite this, people say millennials aren't loyal. This is not true at all. In fact, management has not given them reasons to be loyal. What's important to understand as a leader is that you need to have mechanisms in place that allow millennials to share their opinions and let them know they're contributing to a greater good. If they don't feel like they're contributing to the overall process, they're not going to be motivated.
