Sir Richard Branson once famously said, "Take care or your employees and they will take care of your business." Many business owners give this idea lip service but don't really focus on empowering their front-line customer service people the way that Sir Richard or other fabulously successful entrepreneurs do.

Dr. Henry's book, Define And Deliver Exceptional Customer Service, is a must-read for every business owner who has workers interfacing with - and solving problems for - their customers. After all of the effort we go through to attract and do business with new clients, why don't we work harder to keep them as long-term sources of repeat and referral business? Dr. Henry knows the answer to that and many other perplexing questions about the state of customer service among businesses of all sizes around the world. Please join us this Thursday at 10:00​ as we stream live right here. Learn more about The Customer Service Doctor: https://DrKellyHenry.com​ Buy Dr. Henry's book: https://amzn.to/3v9yjZA

Ecommerce seems like old hat these days. There are so many online platforms for creating a storefront to sell products, you almost lose track. But what if you're not selling a product? What if you are a coach, consultant, therapist, attorney, yoga instructor or other professional who is instead selling access to your time and expertise? How can you create a professional web presence that integrates your calendar, services offered, FAQs, policies, testimonials and a payment gateway, all in one place? With an amazingly powerful online platform called Book Like A Boss. My guest this week is Nachum Kligman, author, podcaster, CEO and creator of Book Like A Boss. I very seldom do product endorsements but I am a long-time Book Like A Boss user and, because I believe in in it so strongly, also an affiliate partner.

My guest on this week's program is Tony Hoty, a marketing and sales leadership expert in the home improvement and remodeling industry. I was very pleased when Tony agreed to appear on Radio Free Enterprise because, even though only a small fraction of my audience is in the home improvement industry, what Tony teaches can have a profound impact on any company of any size in any industry. Effective marketing and sales are essential to the success of every business. And yet, for many business owners, marketing is a mystery and sales is a dirty word. My introduction to a true sales culture came immediately after the dot-com collapse. My tech startup had folded and I found myself with a six-figure lifestyle and a zero-figure income. I had a family to feed, a mortgage to pay, and bills piling up. Out of desperation, I took a job as a salesman for a home improvement company and, though I started out very slowly, by the end of the year I was the top producer in the company and had completely turned my fortunes around. What I learned about the power of a professional sales culture is what Tony Hoty is all about. More information: https://TonyHoty.com

In 2007 Bob Burg and John David Mann published The Go-Giver, which went on to become an international bestseller that influenced the lives of million of people around the world. In this episode of Radio Free Enterprise, it is my great privilege to speak with Bob about that seminal title as well as the third book in the Go-Giver series, The Go-Give Influencer, which lays out The Five Laws of Genuine Influence.

He has some very insightful thoughts to share and is an absolute joy to listen to. If you have read any of the the Go-Giver books, are a fan of Bob Burg, or are just wondering what all the fuss is about surrounding the Go-Giver movement, I urge you to join us in this conversation.

Successful entrepreneurs see their current business as a valuable asset that can be sold when they decide it's time to move on to their next adventure. Right? Every year over 1,000-times more businesses are founded in the United States than the number sold. Does that mean that 99.9% of businesses are failures? I guess the answer depends upon your definition of success. Leaving tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars on the table at a point in your life when you could really use them doesn't sound like entrepreneurial behavior to me. One of my primary missions in helping business owners succeed is to get more of them to seriously consider the idea of selling-out in the future and to begin preparing today to maximize the sales price when that day finally comes. That's why I asked a seasoned business broker, Dustin Zeher of Horizon Brokers in Woodbridge, Virginia, to join me on this week's Radio Free Enterprise. Dustin has been involved in sales transactions involving businesses from a wide range of industries and annual revenue figures. I'm going to ask Dustin to dig into the psychology of owners selling their businesses and share his thoughts on why so few take this course of action. We're also going to talk about what a typical sale transaction looks like, what owners can do today to help increase the value of their business in future, and common mistake he sees made and how to avoid them.

It's no secret that publishing a book that solves the problems of your ideal clients is a powerful way to gain the upper hand in a competitive marketplace. That's why I invited Diana M. Needham of Business Book Partners to be my guest this week on Radio Free Enterprise. Diana helps business owners, professionals, corporate and military leaders, coaches and consultants dramatically grow their income buy helping them write, publish and leverage a book of their own. But, as Diana makes clear in her 7 Questions Every Author Must Answer list, strategic planning at the beginning of the process can mean the difference between a book that sells 57 copies and then disappears and a book that will take its author and their business to the next level of success. Please join us to meet Diana M. Needham and learn more about Business Book Partners.

In the years following Microsoft's acquisition of LinkedIn for 26 billion dollars in 2016, a lot has changed.

In this conversation, Louise shares three critical strategies for leveraging LinkedIn to build your business.

Hiring and managing remote workers has suddenly become a critical challenge for businesses of all sizes and across a wide range of industries. That's why I asked Justin Brown, co-founder of Primal Video, a video training and resources firm located in Brisbane, Australia, to join me for a conversation on Radio Free Enterprise. Justin and his brother (and co-founder) Mike promote their business exclusively on YouTube. They have produced 328 videos to date, that have attracted over 700,000 subscribers and millions of views. For the past several years, virtually all of their video production and business administration work has been performed by remote workers in other countries, primarily the Philippines. In this conversation, I ask Justin to share how he sources and vets highly-productive remote workers, manages them on an ongoing basis, and keeps them on his team for years to come.

Business owners have ever seen anything like this. And while a small number of industries are actually thriving in our Brave New World, most are facing huge drops in revenue, uncertainty about the future, and tough decisions about staffing and just keeping the lights on. We need advice, direction, and leadership. That's why I asked David Belden of ExecuVision International to join me on Radio Free Enterprise this week. More Info: https://iexecuvision.com/
