In this episode: One of entrepreneurs' standard desires is attaining the freedom to work when and where they want. Selling and exiting your business is a viable option, but it requires extensive due diligence and a systematic process to execute effectively. How can you source and finalize optimal acquisitions? According to seasoned M&A advisor Todd Taskey, the buyer acquires 100% of the business in an ideal transaction while the seller maintains equity in the new company. This can be accomplished through a private equity acquisition or by partnering with a company that specializes in your industry. Before executing any deal, Todd emphasizes maintaining your organization's quality by implementing processes to systematize operations and finances. In today's episode of Systems Simplified, Adi Klevit is joined by Todd Taskey, the M&A Advisor at Potomac Business Capital, who details the components of a successful business transaction. Todd also explains how to evaluate potential companies for acquisition, the road to post-acquisition freedom, and the ideal time to exit a business.

Ep. #16, Caroline and Amir Zonozi, the CEO & Co-Founder of Zoomph, reflect on the 2020 Tokyo Olympics and how women athletes dominated both in athletic competition - and when it came to social media reach & impact. Zoomph is a leader in digital intelligence at the intersection of sports and sponsorship analysis. During the 2020 Olympics, Amir and his team measured the power of influence of Team USA's women athletes by analyzing the data around social media reach, impact and generated value.

The top moments included:Suni Lee generating $6M in social value from 9 Instagram posts with an unprecedented 47% follower interaction rate.Simone Biles' tweet thanking fans for supporting her decision to withdraw that generated over 100 million organic impressions and $2.7 million in social value.Allyson Felix's name being mentioned on social more than 10K times with 52M impressions worth almost $900k in social value.Katie Ledecky generated 8.5 million organic impressions from her Instagram, with an engagement rate of 12.83% - which was a full 2 points higher than the official @TeamUSA's Instagram engagement rate.Even beyond the digital space, Tokyo 2020 was an absolutely glass-shattering Olympics for women athletes. Looking specifically at Team USA, 53.6% of American Olympians were women, and women won 66 of Team USA's 113 medals - accounting for 58.4% of the medals won. Women's sports also received 59.1% of primetime coverage from NBC in the U.S., which was the highest percentage that women's sports have ever received in the history of NBC's Olympic broadcasts.In this episode, listen to Amir and Caroline discuss all of the ways in which women athletes won the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.This episode was recorded on August 17, 2021.

Amir Zonozi is the Co-Founder & President of Zoomph, an audience intelligence and sponsorship measurement tool for sports teams, leagues, and agencies. Amir started his career in social media strategy and management before taking the entrepreneurial leap and launching Zoomph in 2014. In this episode, we examine how social media has fundamentally changed sports and politics. Perhaps the most striking example from the sports world is the popularity of individual athletes over teams. Not only have fantasy sports emphasized individual over team performance, but social media has made all-star athletes more accessible to fans than ever before. And foreign viewers, who don’t share the team’s geographic affiliation, are more likely to care about their favorite star players. Major league athletes have become online influencers in their own right; for example, Juju Smith-Schuster augments his performance on the field with gaming streams on Twitch, lifestyle content on Instagram, and his own shoe line with Adidas. The same phenomenon can be observed in politics. Social platforms like Twitter and Facebook have made politicians more accessible and accountable to their constituents. Donald Trump and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez have become canonical examples of politicians who take to social media to engage directly with their supporters. And now that the genie is out of the bottle, the political arena – much like the world of sports – is forever changed by social media. Host: James Creech LEAVE US A REVIEW!

In Park Howell's 30+ years in advertising, he has found that deep down people know the purpose of their organization. The problem is, it’s buried beneath the day-to-day business milieu. Busy executives don’t take the time to bring their core brand story to the surface, share it with their employees and customers, and delight in the dynamic business growth that follows. Park has experienced the transformational power of business storytelling when he took a tiny water conservation campaign in Mesa, AZ, and created the largest outreach effort of its kind in North America with more than 400 private and public entities adopting the program. With brand storytelling, Park has helped Goodwill of Central Arizona grow from 24 stores generating $17 million in annual revenue in 2003 to more than 60 stores earning more than $125 million in revenue by 2015. His business storytelling launched Coca-Cola’s ecodriving initiative among its 60,000 fleet drivers and support staff. Coke enjoyed double the savings on fuel and maintenance than projected due to the embrace of the program by its employees.
