What's the difference between AI and an algorithm? How can AI accentuate and accelerate your productivity? What are the risks - and more concerning, what threats does AI pose? From email writing to book publishing to job risks and scams - we cover it all. Here's a link to the AI generated version of me (Phil) that we briefly played during the episode - it's uncanny. https://youtu.be/qK_7hS0jPvU?si=u7dpTiGED9KBcps4
Actor and voice talent Adam Pritchett is a gifted creative, one I've had the pleasure of working with to bring my novel The Conduit to life as an audiobook. He found job security in the Italian education system, but when a friend and mentor helped him open himself to new opportunities, he achieved success, freedom and self-sufficiency. Join us for an engaging exploration into Adam's journey to entrepreneurship!
Phil and Jason discuss a few myths in franchising and provide education and awareness around the some key topics: - Finding the Right Business Will Make Me Successful. - The Secret to Success in Business is Finding a Franchise Doing Something I Love. - I’ll Know the Right Opportunity When I See It.- Most Businesses Go Belly Up.- Owning a Franchise is Like Having a Boss, The Franchisor Will Dictate Everything. - I Can’t Be Creative in a Franchise.- A Franchise requires More Money Than I Can Afford. And more!
The Battered Career Syndrome® means being subjected to the frustration of turning to the next career path in the company you work for, and then being downsized, right-sized or let go, and then having to start over again. Today, Phil and Jason discuss and contextualize this concept as we lead into the Thanksgiving Holiday.
Many franchisors host what is often know as a "Discovery Day" or "Meet The Team Day." Some are optional and some are required, depending on the Franchisor. In any case, it is an opportunity to travel to the franchise headquarters, meet their management team and get a more in-depth view of the business and the support. In today's episode we will do a deep dive and discuss what you should get out of it, how to prepare, and what the outcomes can be after these events.
There's a big difference between making a decision, and making a bad decision. In this episode we talk through the four major "F" words and provide a helpful analogy meant to inspire you to step out from your comfort zones and explore what's possible.
Post-pandemic, Gartner Research study found that only 17% of the time companies spend making B2B buying decisions involves sales. Further, 69 to 80% of all businesses surveyed prefer Digital Self-Service to in-person sales presentations. Traditional go-to sales strategies such as cold-calls, cold emails and in-person meetings are no longer as effective as they were back in the Glen Garry Glen Ross days of "Always Be Closing." New KPIs matter, such as Time to Emotional Connection. Prospect onboarding must be intelligently structured and consistently improved upon. In today's post-pandemic digital age, to achieve consistent double-digit growth we must let go of our "Always Be Closing" strategies in favor of "Always Be Re-Imagining."
Would it surprise you to know that a full 60% of the entire global workforce identifies as being emotionally disconnected from their jobs? That last year, 50.5 million Americans (24.3% of the entire US workforce) resigned from their roles? There are reasons, and if you fall within either statistic you're certainly not alone. If you're considering a career change, this is a must listen episode. Host Phillip Macko will share insights into what's driving these statistics and more - but more importantly he'll share his "3-R Strategy" - Re-Search, Re-Imagine, Re-Invent - a strategy he's successfully employed with hundreds of clients that creates the path for career reinvention. Don't step on yet another "Career Treadmill," take charge of your career, finances and future by employing the 3-R strategy.

You've heard the expression, "wherever you go, there you are." These words hold no greater meaning than when you are considering a career change or have been displaced from your company and seeking new opportunities. While it's important to look externally, visiting the job boards, networking, it's equally important - or even more important - to look within and define what you want life to look like for you in this next career iteration. And that's what this episode focusses on.
If you are considering a. career change or in the midst of exploring new possibilities, this is an important episode for you. In it, hosts Jason and Phil talk about the importance of defining your Primary Aim as well as introducing a five-step method designed to help you define it.
