- 262 - 158. Developing a Cash Culture with Peter Kingma
What is the most urgent crisis that any business can face?
If you’ve ever been in a pinch over cash flow, you understand just how much pressure and stress that can place on a business.
It clouds your decision making, puts you into desperation, and can cause massive disruption to your operations and team.
Having been in this situation once in a prior business, cash flow is now something that I’m particular about keeping an eye on. And I know that there’s more I can do to level up my own understanding of how to best navigate ongoing cash flow considerations.
Which is why I was excited to connect with Peter Kingma, author of CASH IS KING. Kingma has thirty years of experience helping companies drive operational resilience with better cash management. In his book he offers his unparalleled perspective on the necessity of developing a “cash culture.”
We discuss:
Cash flow management and its importance in business Managing cash flow and metrics for business success Financial planning, inventory management, and forecasting demand Cash flow management and leadership in businessDeveloping a cash culture and firm grasp on your financial operations is a game changer at any level of business growth. I know you’ll find that it’s just as important for maintaining business operations as it is for scaling your business.

Mon, 22 Jul 2024 - 37min - 261 - 157. Becoming a Category of One with Joe Calloway
This whole world we live in is amazing. The way we can connect with people the way we can get aligned with people and meet people in online in a way that just wasn't possible a couple years ago.
And I know I'm preaching to the choir, you all do that the same. And it's really fun how, when we're in our businesses, when we're running it, it can feel very stifling. If you let it, it can feel like the walls are closing in around, you can feel like you got this whole big weight on your shoulders. But that doesn't mean you have to do it alone. As a matter of fact, the most inspirational leaders that I've ever worked with in my entire life, still have coaches.
It's knowing that you don't know it all. It's knowing that you need help knowing that you it's not that you're not enough, it's that you are an unfinished product. And I think that's a very healthy thing to to just recognize and say I'm unfinished. I'm not perfect, I need someone else, if nothing else, to point me in the right direction when I need it, to keep me moving forward, because that's what growing is all about.
Which is why I am super excited to have Joe Calloway with me. Joe is a performance coach and advisor who helps great companies get even better. So he's an author, coach, speaker and his client list reads like, whoa, who are these people? He's the author of four ground-breaking business books, including becoming a category of one how extraordinary companies transcend commodity and defy comparison, which received rave reviews from the New York Times.
We discuss:
The idea of having a simple mantra or phrase that can guide the team and have tactical application The value of coaching and exchanging ideas. Leadership, management, and caring for employees. Developing a "filter system" for ideal types of clients to work withThis was an incredible episode that I am so proud to have been part of! If you're not connected with Joe already, do yourself a favor and take a listen to this episode.

What does your team need from you during times of change?
Change is inevitable in a business and you will encounter this at some point during your career. It can come from many places including opportunity, crisis, chaos, or turnover. But the process is very similar.
I’ve been on both sides of these situations (and I’m sure you have as well)
As you’re navigating these waters, don’t forget about your team. They’re feeling the same apprehensions as you. The same fears and same uncertainty.
How you lead in this situation will determine the ultimate success of your strategy.

Thu, 11 Apr 2024 - 14min - 259 - 154. Building An Etsy Empire with Dylan Jahraus
What does it take to build an empire?
There are so many things that are consistent with the many leaders that I’ve been fortunate to have interviewed on this show. A tenacity for getting things done, willingness to do what no one else would do, and a positive energy that is infectious are just a couple of them.
Today I was really excited to speak to someone about a platform that I’ve only just barely even used: Etsy.
I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to speak to Dylan Jahraus.
Dylan is a $1.5M Etsy seller with a corporate e-commerce background. She’s consulted 2,000+ Etsy sellers from 30+ different countries within a variety of categories– digital, POD, handmade, supplies and vintage!
We discuss:
Journey into Etsy - Dylan discusses her journey from starting a small Etsy shop to scaling it into a $400,000 annual business. Dylan reflects on her transition from a seller to a coach, helping others succeed on Etsy.
The Art of Scaling and Fulfillment - Dylan emphasizes the importance of building a scalable model and outsourcing tasks like fulfillment. She shares her experience of employing military spouses to handle fulfillment, enabling her to focus on growing the business.
Etsy SEO and Building Brand Loyalty - Dylan dives into the intricacies of Etsy SEO, emphasizing its differences from traditional search engine optimization. She highlights the significance of functional SEO and the impact of brand loyalty on Etsy.
Building an Etsy Empire - Dylan shares her journey of transitioning from a solo seller to a coaching business, emphasizing the importance of providing value and building a strong team. She reflects on the challenges and rewards of entrepreneurship compared to corporate life.
I’m still so excited by how much I learned from this amazing interview and can’t wait to apply these lessons into my own business. Even if you aren’t selling on Etsy, these are universal skills that will apply to your business as well.

Have you ever felt completely alone or exposed in your business?
As you’re building your business you will have times where you feel completely vulnerable and like there’s no one there to help you.
Because, in many cases, there isn’t.
While this is exhilarating for some, for most of us this can lead to indecision, wishy-washyness, burn out, or constant context-shifting in what we’re working on.
In this episode, I discuss the lessons that I’ve learned not only in business, but also draw on my experience as a special operator to help you through these times. There are key strategies that you can begin employing today that will help ensure you come through these periods with success.
Happy hunting!

If you could fix one thing to move your business forward, what would it be?
As a business operations coach, I have the fortune to be able to work with businesses in multiple different niches and industries.
And yet, what holds many of them back are common characteristics.
The bad news is that without fixing these parts of your business you’ll always feel like you’re pushing a boulder up a mountain.
The good news… they are all within your control!
Fix the foundation of your business and watch the results start to come easier and allow you more freedom to move forward with what drives you.

When you’re faced with difficulty in your business, who do you turn to?

That’s why I was so thrilled to meet Jeremy Shapiro. Jeremy runs Bay Area Mastermind and has a unique knack for helping entrepreneurs to get out of their own way, create the business that supports their freedom, and help them enjoy more of their lives.

Do you remember the first time you truly discovered entrepreneurship?
If I ask you to tell me about this moment in time, it’s likely that this will evolve into a story. One that has twists, turns, successes, and failures.
And ultimately teach something that you learned along the way.
That’s the power of storytelling and as leaders we must find ways to use story throughout our communication.
In this episode I go through a couple of tips that I’ve used to improve my own storytelling in a very natural way.
Whether you’re a natural storyteller or not, this episode will help you elevate your skills to have an even greater impact.

What’s the most valuable tool that you have to inspire people?
I’ve been observing influential people for years and notice that they all have one critical similarity.
They all tell stories.
It makes sense when you consider that the entire human experience is rooted in storytelling. From the earliest days of caveman we’ve been telling stories to convey greater meaning. Inspiring others to take action or learn lessons.
So let me ask you… what stories do you have to tell?
As I would discover during this episode, there are actually 7 essential stories that we need as leaders in our companies. Which is why I turned to my new friend Kurian to help me learn more.
Kurian Mathew Tharakan is the founder of the sales and marketing strategy firm StrategyPeak Sales & Marketing Advisors and a 27-year veteran of the sales and marketing industry. He has consulted for companies in numerous sectors. Kurian is also the author of the Amazon Bestseller, “The 7 Essential Stories Charismatic Leaders Tell,” which details how anyone can move people and mountains with the power of story.
I hope this moves you into action, documenting and telling your own story. And giving yourself the permission to share and be vulnerable to inspire those around you.
On the next episode we’ll continue to explore storytelling and the impact that it can have in your life and business.
See you soon.

What does it mean to be a transformational leader?
When we think about leadership training, much of what we’ve been trained to do is transactional.
Do this… great! Do that… done!
But we all know that type of leadership will only take you so far and wear you out in the long run. It’s exhausting and requires continuous oversight over what team members are doing.
To level up your own leadership, you need to embrace becoming a transformational leader.

What does it mean to be a fearless leader?
For many, leadership isn’t something that they ever pursued, but they were called to it. And often that can trigger a response that puts us into an uncomfortable space.
The good news is, you’re not alone.
Sha Sparks is the CEO (Chief Excitement Officer) of Sparks of Fire International. She hosts The Power of Investing in People Podcast, is the author of How to Get Your Voice Back, is a Certified Fearless Living Coach and Trainer, and the Co-Founder of the FIRESTARTERS Book Project.
In this episode, we uncover: How formative experiences continue to impact us well into our adult years, and how to recover from those experiences Why imposter syndrome comes into effect and how to overcome this feeling That using our voice to tell our story can open us up to new possibilities and outcomes Why physically journaling creates connections in our brain that releases past traumas and can help redefine ourselves
Most people have some kind of trauma that we (unconsciously) carry with us. Having ways to process these experiences and move on is an incredibly valuable exercise that I would suggest to anyone.

Time is a limited and invaluable resource, yet it often feels like we don't have enough of it.
We've all been there: spending hours on unproductive tasks, procrastinating, or simply getting sidetracked.
But what if we could identify our time wasters and optimize our schedules for maximum productivity?
Enter the time study.
By tracking our daily activities for a couple of weeks, we can analyze how we're spending our time, where we're wasting it, and how we can make better use of it.
In this episode, we'll explore how a time study can help you prioritize your time, increase efficiency, and achieve your goals.

Mon, 03 Apr 2023 - 15min - 234 - 91. Getting Your Reps with Jarrod Haning
What if our brain was able to think at a much higher level?
We all know what it’s like to be hampered by indecision. To be unsure of the next step to take in our strategic plan. But what if our brain could be trained to break through these self-imposed limitations and clear the obstacles for us?
Today we’re joined by Jarrod Haning from Mindset Performance. Jarrod works with entrepreneurs to help them see past their blind spots and uncover their true potential.
Discover:
How to double your income by purposely working less hours The advice he would give advice a struggling entrepreneur WITHOUT seeing their personal MindScan. Why focusing on getting things done kills your productivity and checking things over your to-do list lowers your income How to harness the thinking patterns of successThis type of work is incredibly interesting and feels somewhat counter-intuitive, but the fact is that most of us already have the knowledge needed to progress. But we’re holding ourselves back.
Doing some mind pushups will help us get past our own limitations and truly see what is possible for us!

Fri, 31 Mar 2023 - 32min - 233 - 90. Staying Legal While Hiring
I've noticed a troubling trend among small businesses in closed Facebook communities and business groups. 🤔
Many are looking to hire only females or bragging about having a female team. 😱😲
As a business owner and leader, I encourage diversity and inclusivity in all aspects of my business. The best hire I ever made was a female, who ultimately replaced me in my previous job. Her different way of approaching things and unique perspective added immense value to the team.
Having both masculine and feminine energy within a company can be incredibly useful and lead to amazing results. Diversity should be encouraged in all aspects of employment, and discrimination based on someone's race, color, religion, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, pregnancy, national origin, age, disability, or genetic information is illegal.
In this episode, I'll be discussing why this is not only illegal but also detrimental to the success of a business. I'll also be sharing personal anecdotes about the benefits of having a diverse team and how it can lead to incredible results.

Fri, 24 Mar 2023 - 1h 00min - 231 - 88. Starting and Ending Your Week
Habits and routines are the cornerstone to your business. And nowhere is this more clear for me than start and end of the week routines
This is where our team needs us the most. We have to be on our game to put together the pieces for them to do their jobs.
I’ve noticed that Monday morning and Friday afternoon are often the least productive for strategic work - so why not schedule out things to keep us moving forward!
Start of the week gives us momentum. Allows for Monday morning to be action-oriented towards routine tasks rather than waffling about.
Friday is shutting things down, taking stock of the week. Unpacking this now so we’re able to enjoy any time off that we have scheduled for the weekend rather than leave something unfinished on the desk.
Once you know what needs to be done on both of these, operationalize it!

Mon, 13 Mar 2023 - 15min - 228 - 85. A Breath of Fresh Air with Chris Davies
Can something as simple as our breath have a massive impact on our health and productivity?

Fri, 10 Mar 2023 - 53min - 227 - 84. Get More Done in Less Time
Have you ever sat back and wondered where the whole day went?
We strive to be as productive as possible, but it seems like regularly we’re left looking at a long list of remaining tasks at the end of the day.
This can be explained…
Parkinson's Law is the idea that work expands to fill the time allotted for its completion. This may mean you take longer than necessary to complete a task or you procrastinate and complete the task right before the due date.
When you learn to master Parkinson’s Law for yourself and your team, you’ll find more than enough time to do everything that needs to be done.
And a whole lot more satisfaction with your work.

The journey that we’re on is never a straight line. We will encounter stressors along the way.

Why is it critical to be radically transparent in your company?

Of all the levers of influence, perhaps none is as powerful as authority.
We are programmed from a young age to obey and listen to the authorities. To be subservient when ordered to do something by someone that is in charge.
There are numerous ways that you can leverage authority within your own company, far from simply “because I said so”. Mandated authority is the least effective long term, and could bring negative implications to your own relationship with your subordinates.
However, if we flip things around and leverage authority in a positive manner, the sky's the limit in how we can apply this principle to our team leadership.

There are many different ways to bring operational support onto your team. If you’re like more small businesses, you need someone immersed in the day-to-day of the company. Someone to directly take tasks off the CEOs desk and lead the team.
That’s where an Operator can really help you.
I noticed that many are being recommended to look for fractional COOs or fractional Integrators for their businesses.
While that has its place, today I’ll discuss why I don’t recommend that as the first step.

While some offenses are fireable, performance is a tricky area as it’s part of our jobs to provide training for team members. And it’s much, much easier to retain a team member than trying to find, hire and train up a new employee.

“If you want to make an Operator super uncomfortable, start praising them.”
My mentor told me this the first time I attended one of his virtual summits and it’s 100% true. Operators are by very nature more rigid in how we work and some of the least likely to truly show our emotions. That’s just not who we are.
But recently, some changes in my life required me to accept praise with gratitude. That’s what my team needed and I had to give them that space.
