It's All About the Questions

Entrepreneurial journeys rarely go in a straight line. They have detours, divergences and often life outside the work journey impacts thinking, action and final goals. When one journey ends, another might start along the same path or go in a completely different direction. My guest on this episode is Vered Neta. A multi-hyphenate entrepreneur who has done several successful exits from companies she has created, Vered is now on a new journey that she chose because she wanted a new challenge. When that new path threw up a lot of road blocks, she pivoted and created another successful divergence....

What can one say about John David Mann? He has mastered, well he wouldn't say that, but I would, writing non-fiction, parable and fiction writing. He has also shown us how a marriage can be lived fully and be written about, how to start your own school, and how to run a business with over 100,000 people.

Yup, that one is special to me because his words lift my spirits, awaken my brain and bring me joy. Well not just to me but to over 3...

What happens when you get Terry Brock in the studio and record the first video of the radio show? No, this is not the song video killed the radio star! Yet it did create some interesting conversations and interactions and raised a few questions in my mind about video and its place in making an impact.

 

My guest on this episode is the incomparable and totally fun Terry Brock. We challenged each other to figure out how to add video to the live radio show when the studio does not have any cameras and has no capability of accepting newfangled methods of communicating like internet calling. How were we going to do it and still provide a good show, which you are all used to by now!, for the live listening audience that has a radio in their car, home or was listening on iHeart radio? If the show was just a recorded podcast we could always redo it but we were live on terrestrial radio!

 

Feeling a bit overwhelmed by all the planning and inability to test in the studio until we went live, I decided to ask my guest how he deals with overwhelm. He does have a popular Tedx talk on Overcoming Overwhelm!

 

From there we talked about video and its use in providing value related to your brand, the questions you need to ask while figuring it all out and learned a number of great resources when you are looking to add video and ramp up your marketing.

 

One of my favorite shows from the shear fun of the conversation and figuring out all the tech to make it work!  Tweet to @TheLauraSteward and tell me what you think!
