Everyone is looking for the shortcut: artificial intelligence that has conversations for you, job boards that spray your post to 100 different sources, tools that blast emails. Finding candidates and creating relationships relies on your ability to initiate conversation.
Lauren Lawrence is the founder of Stenovate, a web based platform in the legal vertical. Lauren got her business going by recognizing a problem in the industry she was working in and took action.

There's a lot of pros and cons with starting your own business. The key is: do you love your potential business enough to drown out the cons?

We lost a client. Here’s what happened
People think it’s a bad thing, but I love this journey
I’m worried how I’ll be viewed professional. Will it cost me anything or will it only be a gain?
Branding and psychology in marketing and sales is incredible to me
Be grateful for that first job you have. It may suck for the short term but get everything you can out of it
My client disrespected our business. So I cut ties quickly.
I believe to be disruptive you need to do something different but also be patient.
I get jerk messages here and there but what do you think that will do for you?
The most common “problems” with building a sales team comes from your process. Focus on people, not process.
Sales cures all but what does that mean for clients?

I was unsure about Andy Frisella the first time I saw his content. But he's grown on me so much. Seeing his #75HARD program spread like wildfire, I decided to give it a try. And it's been life changing so far as I'm on day 37.
I came across Jemma Jorel Lester on Medium.com, where she explained in a blog all the long term benefits of giving up alcohol for good.
John Hill, a host from The Sales Throwdown, joins the show to talk sales and starting your own business.
Jordan Belfort (Wolf of Wall Street) had Grant Cardone on his podcast. This was the first time I've seen the YouTube comments completely on one side: Cardone got burned.
Why do we follow influencers in sales and why do we think they hold the "secret sauce?"
Phillip Raub is the CEO & Founder of b8ta who recently acquired Toys"R"Us. Their approach to retail is different and it may be the way retail is set up for all stores in the future. Focused more on the "experience" of coming to a store rather than selling, we may be looking into the future here.
We chatted about his current startups, the future of retail and what retailers need to do to stay relevant.
