Many people classify swallowing and feeding intervention as a “medical” service that shouldn't be addressed in the schools.  This is a very black and white (and inaccurate) way of thinking. Children with complex medical needs have a right to FAPE. Measuring whether or not students are accessing their curriculum can't be solely based on grades; which is unfortunately what many teams default to when it comes to determining if services and accommodations are educationally relevant. That's why I invited pediatric swallowing and feeding specialist Carolyn Dolby to the De Facto Leaders podcast to talk about what school teams can, and SHOULD be doing for swallowing and feeding in the schools. Carolyn Dolby, MS, CCC-SLP, specializes in pediatric feeding and swallowing evaluations and interventions as the Dysphagia Support Speech Language Pathologist for a large public school in the Pacific NorthWest. In her prior experience as a clinician, she has served populations across the lifespan in medical, in-home, and private practice settings. Her graduate-level courses for the University of Houston prepare the next generation of school-based dysphagia providers. In her ‘Bite-Sized Advice' private practice, she provides consultation services and dysphagia support nationwide. She presents locally and nationally with a focus on delivering dynamic dysphagia services.In this conversation, we discuss:✅The phases of swallowing, including the “pre-oral phase” schools need to consider.✅How the environment and events leading up to meal times impact a kid's ability to eat safely and efficiently in the lunchroom. ✅Why the “curriculum” isn't just about academic areas, and removing a child from an opportunity to socialize can be a violation of their rights. ✅Children need to be able to access their LRE. They can't do this if they can't maintain adequate nutrition and hydration across the school day.✅Court cases, legal mandates, and which “medical” services schools should be providing. You can connect with Carolyn at c1dobly@gmail.com.Listen to the School of Speech Podcast here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAqLI0-BOrrL4ftJWyDf1HewdiHAjKGuJ Listen to my interview on the School of Speech Podcast called “Positioning Yourself as a Literacy and Executive Functioning Expert on Your School Team” here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XmY0MR6H7QM&list=PLAqLI0-BOrrL4ftJWyDf1HewdiHAjKGuJ&index=4Resources mentioned in this episode:Emily Homer's Students Eat Safely Website.

Episode Summary:In this episode of The Floral Hustle Podcast, Jen takes a deep dive into the wedding consultation process—a critical step in converting leads and booking ideal clients. She walks through her step-by-step consultation framework, from initial inquiry to closing the sale. Learn how to structure your consultations, build rapport, and position yourself as an expert to attract dream clients who trust your expertise (and are willing to pay for it!).Whether you're new to floristry or refining your sales strategy, this episode is packed with actionable insights to help you book more weddings with ease and avoid time-wasting inquiries.Key Takeaways:1. The Role of Consultations in Booking High-Value ClientsConsultations aren't just about selling—they're about ensuring a great fit between you and the couple.Use this time to build trust, establish expertise, and set expectations—so you book weddings you actually want to work on.The right consultation eliminates price shoppers and attracts clients who value your work.2. Should You Require a Consultation?Some florists rely on forms and email communication only, skipping consultations entirely.Jen believes in a more personalized approach—especially for high-end, custom floral designs.Consultations allow you to connect with couples, understand their vision, and ensure they align with your pricing and style.3. The Pre-Consultation Process: Qualifying the LeadJen doesn't meet with everyone—she first screens inquiries to determine if they are a good fit.Her inquiry form only asks 7 key questions, including wedding date, venue, budget, and design inspiration.She sends a brochure with pricing guidance before scheduling a consultation to ensure transparency.4. Setting Up & Structuring the ConsultationUse a scheduling tool like Calendly to avoid back-and-forth emails.Jen hosts 95% of consultations on Zoom for a face-to-face experience without the travel time.She starts by building rapport—asking about the venue, couple's story, and unique details.5. Breaking Down the Consultation Process✅ Personal Flowers: Start with the bride's bouquet and work through the wedding party.✅ Ceremony Flowers: Ask about arches, aisle decor, and any additional floral needs.✅ Reception: Determine table count, centerpiece styles, and head table florals (long table garlands, installations, etc.).✅ Color & Flower Selection: Save this for the end to avoid clients getting hyper-focused on specifics too early.✅ Venue Expertise: If you've worked at their venue before, position yourself as an expert—this builds trust!✅ Closing the Consultation: Recap the discussion, set expectations, and explain next steps for booking.6. Positioning Yourself as the ExpertThroughout the conversation, drop cues that reinforce your experience (e.g., “I've done dozens of weddings at this venue.”).If the couple has a Pinterest board full of conflicting styles, help them refine their vision rather than executing exactly what they've pinned.Emphasize flexibility with floral selections—avoid promising specific blooms to reduce risk and increase creative freedom.7. Closing the Sale: The Proposal & Booking ProcessJen does provide proposals (some educators discourage this, but she believes in transparency).She does NOT send a contract until the client confirms they are moving forward.She places a 7-day soft hold on the date to encourage quick decision-making.Uses follow-up emails strategically to nudge couples toward booking.Jen's Golden Rule:

Welcome to the Business Lunch podcast. In this episode, we explore what it truly means to position yourself as an investor in the business world, regardless of the size of your bank account. In this power-packed episode, we unlock the strategies and mindsets that separate the savvy entrepreneur from the everyday business owner. We talk about how leveraging not just capital but also your unique resources, network, and skills can significantly amplify your impact and success. Highlights:"The truth is that most savvy investors don't bring a bunch of cash to a deal. The easiest thing you can do is bring cash to a deal. But that's also the riskiest thing you can do because your cash could be lost." "Capital also means other resources that companies want and need... Anything that you can bring... is capital. And if you're someone who can bring those resources, that capital to a company, you are an investor." "Working above the business is when you are no longer thinking about how do I sell the product or service... You're thinking of the business itself as your product."

The Business of Meetings – Episode 186 - A New Approach to Online Marketing with Nicholas Kusmich We are delighted to have Nicholas Kusmich back on the show today! Nicholas is truly phenomenal! He is a seasoned expert in Facebook advertising and online marketing. He describes his role as one who helps information entrepreneurs scale their revenue and attract more clients effortlessly through fun marketing that does not suck!  In today's conversation, we dive into business strategies, exploring ways to position our businesses most effectively. Nicholas explains how he operates as a professional marketer, tells inspiring stories, and shares insights into the profound lessons we can learn from unexpected challenges in life, like the harrowing experience he faced with his family during the Kelowna fire.  Join us as we engage in an enlightening and insightful discussion with Nicholas Kusmich, delving into the wellspring of wisdom and resilience he brings to his professional endeavors and personal life. We trust our conversation will leave you energized and inspired! Bio: Nicholas Kusmich, Founder of the H2H Media Group, is best known as a Leading Digital Advertising Strategist, and for having the highest ROIs in the industry (up to 30,973.32%). Working with A-List clients, including top thought-leaders, NYT Best Selling Authors, Top Inc 500, and fast-growth companies, he creates advertising campaigns that don't suck and allows you to generate qualified leads without a funnel.  A Journey Fueled by a Desire to Help Others For all his life, Nicholas has been driven by a calling to help others and positively impact the world. His journey began with a religious experience during junior high school that significantly shaped his perspective on life and led him into the field of ministry. At nineteen, he was ordained as a minister, started a church, and spent fourteen years as a pastor. However, there were certain things he did not like about traditional religious institutions and he did not want to continue taking a salary from the church as his primary source of income. So he started a side hustle doing internet marketing to cover his expenses. He eventually left the church to work full-time with internet marketing and online advertising. Positioning Yourself as a Category King or Queen If you want to position your business as a category king or queen, you must distinguish it in the market rather than compare it with your competitors' businesses. Nicholas explains that being different can have more power in the market than striving to be better than others. That's why business owners should address their unique customer needs and problems and educate the market to recognize their distinctiveness. Understanding the Why Before Going Online  Nicholas explains that not everyone needs an online presence, and business owners should avoid following trends blindly or giving in to marketing pressure. Before they start the process of creating an online presence, business owners must consider whether or not they genuinely need one. They should also understand why they want an online presence and know their desired outcomes. That approach involves asking a series of questions to unearth their true motivation for seeking an online presence.  Selecting the Right Partner  When selecting the right partner for building an online presence in a competitive digital landscape, Nicholas recommends focusing on the who rather than the how. He suggests that businesses identify individuals or businesses that have been successful in their specific industry and have a proven track record of delivering results. He emphasizes the importance of asking for references from current and past clients to gain insights into working relationships, potential challenges, and overall satisfaction. Positioning in a Crowded Digital World  Establishing a strong online presence in today's competitive digital world can be challenging. Nicholas advises business owners to position themselves as an industry leader or category king by offering something unique and different from their competitors. He emphasizes the importance of understanding human behavior and psychology and suggests that businesses should focus on fundamentals rather than being overwhelmed by rapidly changing algorithms and technologies. When crafting their online presence, business owners should always prioritize human interactions and the psychology of their target audience. Educating the Market and Defining Problems  Nicholas uses examples like Uber and Netflix to illustrate how businesses can redefine their industries by addressing unmet needs and educating the market. He highlights the power of identifying problems customers may not know about and then offering a solution. That approach involves businesses educating customers about such problems and explaining how their unique offering addresses them. Successful positioning requires business owners to think beyond competing on price or value. Instead, they should focus on delivering a unique and valuable customer experience. Facing Disruption by Creating a New Category  By marketing existing problems, businesses can become industry leaders without directly advertising their products or services. Nicholas uses the example of Netflix to emphasize how category kings or queens present an existing problem in a new light, prompting customers to realize previously unaddressed issues. That strategy challenged the status quo and positioned them as innovators. Challenging the Conventional Sales Funnel  Nicholas advocates for rethinking marketing strategies and targeting the right audience by presenting unique solutions that resonate with potential customers and challenge conventional marketing wisdom. He questions the effectiveness of traditional sales funnels, explaining that funnels often slow the buying process by attracting seekers of information rather than solution seekers. For that reason, premium prospects and those who value their time when seeking solutions may find funnels unappealing.  Authenticity and Community in the Face of Adversity  Nicholas shares his experience of evacuating his home during a wildfire in Kelowna. In prioritizing his relationships over material possessions, he found a deeper appreciation for life. He emphasizes the importance of focusing on what truly matters when facing adversity and highlights the power of community and mutual support in times of crisis.  Conclusion The unique insights Nicholas shares today challenge traditional marketing approaches and highlight the importance of creating a new category to resonate with those seeking innovation and authenticity in their business strategies.
