Stevie Wonder is an international pop icon, a singer-songwriter, a record producer, AND a multi-instrumental musician (for example…harmonica, keyboards, drums, bass guitar, guitar, and an incredibly talented singer. Wonder is an innovator - he pioneered the use of the early analog synthesizer during the 1970s. His albums are individual works of art, carefully crafted and thematic. Stevie Wonder's influence extends across a range of genres that include R&B, pop, soul, gospel, funk, and jazz. He has often been referred to as a “ONE MAN BAND” because of his broad range of talents in music composition, music production and most of all - - music performance. Born Stevland Hardaway Morris, Stevie Wonder was born on May 13, 1950, in Saginaw, Michigan. That's near Saginaw Bay off Lake Huron, about 100 miles northwest of Detroit. In the 1950s, Saginaw County had several General Motors plants and many companies building parts that went down to the big DETROIT assembly plants. It was a booming economic period for the entire US auto industry. It was a difficult birth. Wonder was born six weeks premature and placed in an oxygen-rich incubator, which  resulted in retinopathy of prematurity - causing his blindness. When he was 4, his Mother divorced with his father, and along with her 3 kids, moved 100 miles down the road to bustling Detroit…. home of MOTOWN RECORDS.  At age 8, Steveland attended the Whitestone Baptist Church on Detroit's west side. There, he developed his musical talents -- playing piano, drums and harmonica -- and he also sang in the choir and there became a soloist. Stevie was quickly recognized as a prodigy.. He further developed his singing talent with a friend …and they performed as Stevie and John on street corners. When he was just 11, this musical prodigy was discovered by Ronnie White of the MIRACLES, and that in-turn resulted in a meeting with Motown Records founder Barry Gordy, who signed him with the TAMLA label of Motown Records. At that time, he was given the professional name Little Stevie Wonder. That was 1961 and Wonder had a 5-year rolling contract with royalties that were to be held in trust until he was 21. The weekly pay for this young artist was meager – a stipend of just $2.50 a week plus a tutor for Stevie when he was on tour. That $2.50 weekly stipend would be worth about $25 a week today. At age 12 he enrolled in Michigan School for the Blind in Lansing, Michigan. BIT BUCKET Saginaw is also where I was born, just 2 years after Stevie. My family also moved from Saginaw to Detroit, around same year as Stevie - 1954. ­­ M1 How Can You Believe (Stevie Wonder) Eivets Rednow, Motown Records LP 1968 (3:10)   PLAY BACKGROUND - HOW CAN YOU BELIEVE   To start today's podcast, I feature the album titled Eivets Rednow. There is some humor in the album title. Eivets Rednow is Stevie Wonder spelled backwards, and on the first release of the album, Stevie's name did not appear on the cover. The album is also UNIQUE for Stevie as it is an INSTRUMENTAL album. No lyrics. No poetry.

On today's episode, Will chats with Joann Crary, President & CEO of Saginaw Future.  Established in 1992, Saginaw Future has provided economic development assistance in Saginaw County, generating over $7 billion in new investment.  Joann and her team proactively focus on attracting and retaining jobs in the region, increasing business investment, growing the tax base, and providing a positive environment for businesses to thrive. We dive into the impact economic development can have in a local region, not only for existing businesses but its citizens as well. Joann shares, “We meet with about 250 C-level executives every year and talk about their plans for the future. That is meeting with the CEO, the COO, or the CFO. Our job is to listen to them and learn what barriers they have. We want to understand their barriers so we can assist in removing those barriers. For example, we want to help business owners identify new investments, and then provide a wide variety of financial incentives, identify available sites for building locations, and more.” We think you will love Joann's passion for creating a thriving economy. She highlights the work her team has done to advance economic growth. “We are problem solvers and work hard to reduce barriers for growth.” COVID has presented its challenges with business growth and development and there is no stopping the Saginaw Future team in their desire to help small businesses thrive and expand Saginaw's overall economic impact.

As the entire world deals with these unprecedented times of the coronavirus, I have been on a quest to find ways to turn these "very sour lemons" into the "sweetest lemonade" possible. Today's episode showcases just that! Cierra Warren, a 28-year old baker is the owner of Delicious Sweets. She has two locations in Saginaw County. However, due to Covid-19 Michigan Governor has enforced a "Stay At Home" Executive Order which has forced her to shut down one location and only provide curbside service at the other. Instead of given up and closing up shop altogether, Cierra got creative and found alternative ways within the Executive Order guidelines to continue to service her customers. To contact Delicious Sweets to place an order, they can be reached by email at delicioussweetinc@gmail.com or by phone 248.836.8080.

Traditional ad-think says: 1.   Target the right people2.   Leverage the right media (visual media for visual products, etc.)3.   Use creativity in delivering your message.But nontraditional ad-think gets far better results: 1.   What you say matters most of all. Speak to a felt need. Good advertising isn't about the product or the company that sells it. Good ads explain how the customer's life will be different.EXAMPLE:Don't say, “Dr. Bill Dipweasel was voted gentlest dentist in Saginaw County.”Say, “Get your teeth fixed. You'll be more attractive and your confidence will skyrocket. People will treat you differently.”2.   How you say it is critical. Clarity is more important than creativity. Talk like people. People don't say, “I've elected to have cosmetic dentistry.” They say, “I've decided to get my teeth fixed.” (Dr. Bill Dipweasel will give you push-back on this because he doesn't think “get your teeth fixed” sounds professional. Also, he wants the ad to be about him.)3.   Deliver your message using whatever media offers the best psychological environment. In what moments would a candidate for cosmetic dentistry be most open to the message we crafted about being treated differently?Advertising works best when it speaks to what customers already care about. This is called “speaking to a felt need.” I've never met anyone that's had a secret, unmet desire to go to the dentist. But tens of millions of us secretly wish we were more attractive, more confident, and that people treated us differently. Capiche? Good ads aren't about the company that's paying for the ad. Good ads are about the reader, the listener, the viewer of the ad. This is especially true when writing classified ads for employment. A man attending a class at Wizard Academy confessed that, working part time, he had made more than $850,000 in employee placement fees as the direct result of a single chapter he had read in my second book. I congratulated him on having had the perception to recognize the potential in that chapter. Last week I received an email about that same chapter in my second book from William, an Acadgrad living in St. Petersburg, Russia. Dear Roy,I received an email from my business partner (Thatcher) earlier today, telling me that we had found the perfect applicant for an opening we have in our company. I crafted the job ad based on one of your chapters in the second Wizard of Ads book.This is what I replied to him: “She's perfect. The Wizard of Ads is a genius, and this girl is just what we want, don't you think? I mention the Wizard because I used an article of his on writing job ads for that one. He said the person we were looking for would recognise themselves in the ad, and we wouldn't be swamped with tedious junky mass-applications. And indeed that's what happened.”So thank you, Roy, for all your amazing free advice; I have yet to meet this girl, but judging by the application, I think she should fit in well.Eternally gratefully yours,WilliamThat chapter, by the way, is called “Writing Classified Ads for Employment.” It's chapter 76 in a 101-chapter book called http://www.amazon.com/Secret-Formulas-Wizard-Ads-Turning/dp/1885167393/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1256642830&sr=1-1 (Secret Formulas of the Wizard of Ads), a New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestseller. http://mondaymemo.wpengine.com/?ShowMe=Classified (Here's an example) of the strange type of classified ad that always gets superior results. William, I'm glad you found the perfect employee. I look forward to your next visit to Austin. Yours, Roy...
