  The Coaster That Saved the World

  Sep 12, 202629 minS1

  Text us your opinion or questions Being a creative sort myself, I was lucky to have to have a special guest on this episode by the name of Bob Labbe who has a pet peeve with drink coasters and justifiably thinks you should too! After all, drink coasters are meant to protect any surface from the water rings produced by cold beverages - but they aren't user-friendy. Being a life-long engineer, he decided to put an end to these dastardly coasters that stick to the bottom of you glass or drip water on you and your furniture. It is a fascinating story of how he designed the best coaster in the world. Not to mention a best selling book on golf. Learn more about Bob's creation at https://ultimatecoasterco.com or find both his book "Putting by the Numbers" or ultimate coasters at Amazon.

  Franchising Can Be Affordable (Sort Of)

  Sep 5, 202620 min

  Text us your opinion or questions It is amazing that there are over 4,000 different franchise opportunities in the United States at the moment. And I was surprise how affordable some of them are. Most are not a million dollars like a McDonalds franchise. To break all of this down, I have a special guest today, Adam Goldman, who has helped hundreds of people transform their lives through franchise business ownership. In addition, he helps foreign investors secure a U.S. E-2 Visa through franchise investment - turning entrepreneurial and immigration goals into reality by creating American jobs.

  Episode 18 - Should You Use a Business Broker?

  Aug 30, 202618 minS1

  Text us your opinion or questions Today, we're gonna talk about business brokers. If you've been thinking about selling your business or if you're thinking about buying a business, then this episode is made for you. Now, most business owners only sell their business once in their life. It is essentially the biggest financial transaction they're ever gonna make, and yet most of them go into it completely unprepared. They rely on gut instinct. They rely on advice from a neighbor, and they generally lose money when they do that. But today, we're gonna talk about fixing that. We're gonna cover what brokers actually do, how they get paid, the red flags to watch for, and the questions you need to ask before you sign anything. So stick around. This could help you save up to six figures Support the show To learn about all of the small business educational and support options available, please visit our corporate website at https://seagulltechnologies.com To get a copy of my book, "Mastering Business Basics - The Legal, Logistical, and Tax Considerations of Starting Small Business", you will find more information at https://seagulltechnologies.com/books

  Doing LinkedIn the Wrong Way

  Aug 24, 202629 minS1

  Text us your opinion or questions I've been using LinkedIn for years now with little to show for my efforts. Maybe you have to. I listened to the so-called experts. Get as many contacts as you can. Make sure you post at least weekly. Thanks to today's guest, I now have a good idea of why that effort of time was not giving me the results that I wanted. You may be surprised on what you are wasting your time on also and the right way to make LinkedIn a valuable tool in your marketing arsenal.

  One Word That Eliminates Stress

  Aug 15, 202645 minS1

  Text us your opinion or questions Building a business is a lot of work and more often than not, it involves working 60 to 80 hours a week during the first few years of starting the journey. What is often not talked about is the stress it causes and how that effects all of the relationships with your family members - often with some very negative results. Our guest today, Galen Wilson, is a story teller, but one that has used his journey in life to develop a way to help people deal with that stress and create an even closer relationship with their spouses and peace in their home. I think you will find it very interesting.
