Tapping into individual superpowers with human ...
<p>Our first guest since the rebrand of our podcast (which is now Small Business SUCCESS Talk if you haven't heard yet), is Michael G. Hall. A Louisville native, he has his degree in accounting and economics. After being a CPA and moving into corporate finance, he realized he wanted to do something different and less self-driven which is what got him into human analytics. What exactly is human analytics you ask? Also known as people analytics, human analytics is the collection and application of talent data to improve critical talent and business outcomes.</p><p>BIO: My passion for the past 20 years has been spearheading dynamic change in organizations by identifying and developing the employees’ talents to match the culture of their company.</p><p>By closely collaborating with owner-operators and C-level managers, I uncover and share what drives the people, pinpointing their motivations, strengths, and weaknesses. In my experience, this has resulted in up to a 20% increase in revenue. Armed with this crucial data, C-suite managers now have a roadmap from which they can better manage their bottom line while maximizing top line growth.</p><p>Hall &amp; Associates, Inc. is a strategic advisory firm that works exclusively with visionary business leaders and management to scale and transform organizations using Applied Psychometric Analytics Traits (this translates to “Moneyball for CEOs”).</p><p>Experienced in industries such as FinTech, retail, high-tech software, healthcare, digital imaging, and real estate, I have been a key member of several boards of directors and advisory boards, including: MasterCard Prepaid Policy Council, American Institute of Public Accountants eCommerce Education Committee, Association of Corporate Growth, Austin Chapter Financial Executives International Board of Directors, two-time Financial Executives Global Summit Chair, and Transaction Wireless (First Data) Advisory Board, among others.</p><p>I have a track record of successfully guiding organizations thru transformative processes to pivot and execute company strategies and tactics that is unparalleled. I implement a step-by-step talent optimization process, with the ultimate goal of aligning your talent strategy with your business strategy.</p><p>LINKEDIN: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/michaelgrayhall/" rel="noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">https://www.linkedin.com/in/michaelgrayhall/</a></p>

We discussed his childhood in Port Arthur, Texas, his journey with the NFL, and how he got to where he is today with his business, Pivot to Win.

Ep 40 Rick Smith
<p>&nbsp;Rick Smith founded News USA in 1987, and more than 30 years later continues to innovate new ways to make his customers and clients look brilliant. Early in his career, while at Deloitte &amp; Touche, he realized that PR and advertising people were basically ‘flying blind’ since no news feature service was then providing real, solid metrics to measure success. So he founded News Canada, then launched NewsUSA. He has served on the faculty of the Young Presidents Organization, judged the National Press Club’s Consumer Journalism Awards, and himself has been a Blue Chip Enterprise Award Winner for re-inventing his company. Along the way, Rick authored six books, including the three best-selling, self-help business titles Getting Started, Getting Money and Getting Sales. Today, Rick is on numerous advisory boards and is an early seed investor in 100+ emerging companies ideally where his contacts, media clout and marketing strategy can scale them faster.</p><p><br></p><p>WEBSITE: www.newsusa.com</p><p><br></p><p>FACEBOOK:</p><p><br></p><p>LINKEDIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rick-smith-news/</p>

Ep 39 Terry Callahan - Secret Shelfie
<p>&nbsp;I thought of this about 20 years ago because I had hardwood floors and my decorative pillows slid off of my cedar chest when my cats jumped on the bed. I didn't do anything about it until 2019 because I was trying to survive all those years as a very busy single mom. In 2019, I was happily married to a very messy man and he constantly cluttered the chair in the master bedroom so I needed a place for my pillows. I made a prototype and pitched it to SharkTank and surprise...they liked it and advanced me to the "2nd" level but I didn't go further. I was not surprised because I didn't have sales or even a business at that point. I hustled through 2019, learned social media, tweaked my product and developed a business. I was starting to gain a little traction and then Covid hit. I'm a nurse so I took my job serious and put The Secret Shelfie on the "shelf". In 2021, I was determined to re-launch and I did so by hiring a social media company. They were fabulous and did everything expected but the sales have been stagnant. Currently, I am scratching my head and wondering what direction to take as I scrutinize and analyse the world we live in and why it is so hard to get the public to embrace this lifestyle change. You see, I get terrific feedback about "how cool this product is" once I get people's attention long enough to explain it but then, when people think about it long enough, the response is generally "Oh, I just throw my pillows on the floor". Some people have a chair for their pillows and I get that but as a successful realtor in a past life, excess furniture is a no-no. The fact is, it involves a lifestyle change. By this, I mean people must move a piece of wall art or a TV to make a place for their Secret Shelfie. It involves work and the willingness to change habits. I am trying desperately to figure out how to make this work in a world where you get 3 seconds to convince someone to buy a product that involves work and a lifestyle change.</p><p>WEBSITE: <a href="http://secretshelfie.com/" rel="noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">secretshelfie.com</a></p><p>FACEBOOK:</p><p><a href="https://facebook.com/secretshelfie">https://facebook.com/secretshelfie</a></p><p>INSTAGRAM: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/secretshelfie" rel="noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/secretshelfie</a></p>

<p>We had the chance to talk with Tristan Wright, owner of Evolve to Grow in Victoria Australia. He shared with us his pain points of having a business and how he got to where he is today with great advice for all business owners.</p><p>BIO: I wasn’t a natural born Business Coach. In fact, I started adult life as a moderately successful (and unengaged) Engineer. Work was never my focus, I’d live for time spent cycling with my mates. It was during this paddle-posse that I was tasked with finding and buying some race gear as we looked to turn our mateship into a serious race team. I explored the caverns of the Cycling Wear world—it left a lot to be desired. And just like that, I created and built Seight Custom Cycling Wear. Before too long I was running a $300,000 business from my kitchen table while still tinkering away at engineering. I wasn’t even 30, and all the success made me arrogant.</p><p>WEBSITE:</p><p><img src="https://uploads-ssl.webflow.com/5de86906b5b27b4e1f1df739/5e15324a314c774c93275473_Apple_Icon.png" width="256" height="256">Meet Business Coach Tristan Wright | Evolve to Grow</p><p>FACEBOOK:</p><p><img src="https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/rsrc.php/yv/r/B8BxsscfVBr.ico" width="16" height="16">Evolve to Grow</p><p>LINKEDIN: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/evolve-to-grow/" rel="noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">https://www.linkedin.com/company/evolve-to-grow/</a></p><h1>SBSTpodcast #SBSTshow #smallbusinesssmalltalk #EvolvetoGrow #business #smallbusiness #entrepreuner #businessowner #businesscoach #VictoriaAustralia #Australia</h1><h3>Attachments</h3>
