info_outlineWelcome back to the Step It Up Entrepreneur Podcast! I'm your host, Tomas Keenan! Today, we’re diving deep into the power of patience, perseverance, and the importance of playing the long game in business and life. After a brief hiatus, I’m reflecting on what’s been going on behind the scenes—balancing business, family, and personal commitments—and why my usual system of keeping the podcast running hit a speed bump.
In this episode, I share a recent on-site consultation with a car audio retail business in Oklahoma, where my partner Kathryn and I uncovered a $55,000 profit boost through a strategic pricing adjustment. We’ll talk about the value of in-person consulting, the impact it has on business growth, and why building long-term relationships with clients is the key to lasting success.
