Shownotes

It seems we were just talking about our 'word of the year', and now here we are at the end of 2023! Pat is sharing four things he learned this year, but it might surprise you that they aren't huge, earth-shattering lessons, but rather simple truths that could help us all.

Listen in as Pat reflects on the lessons he learned this year, and what worked and what didn't.

Also on this episode:

  • Managing People / Small Business - Did you wake up one day and realize that in the process of building a small business, you also became an unofficial manager? Matt Ley, founder and principle of Flip the Script lets us in on some of the warning signs that you're creeping into manager territory.
  • Sales / Prospecting / Qualifying Leads - Do you want more sales? Sure, we all do. But there's an important middle step between wanting to make more sales and actually increasing sales in your business. We're talking with Jenifer Frye, CEO and founder of Appreciated Asset, to uncover the secret to that all-important step and how to do it effectively.
  • Mindfulness / Goal Setting - What if all of your hopes and dreams for 2024 could come true? Kaitlin Henze, founder of Passion to Profit Consulting shares a different approach to goal setting, using mindfulness. You'll want to hear what she has to say!
