No matter where you are, at one time or another, you probably have passed by a roadside stand. Sometimes they are garage sales, or kids selling lemonade but if you’re lucky enough it is a fruit stand.  As an entrepreneur have you ever thought, I wonder what a stand like this pulls in? Can it be a full time thing?  My guest today is going to tell you about her story of peaches to profits, how collaboration with farmers and cities helped her grow and how she converted a single peach stand into over 200 workers across 3 states.  Get your copy of my NEW BOOK How to Collaborate Collaborate with me on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tanya-fox...

One of my favorite collaborations to talk about is Lipsmackers and Dr Pepper. Started in 1975 and going for 45 successful years this collab shows how one idea can turn into a duplicatable collaboration earning awards, expansion, new audiences and more.  We are going to talk about how you can use this brand collaboration to think up ideas for your own business and it does not matter if you have a product or a service.    Get your copy of my NEW BOOK How to Collaborate Collaborate with me on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tanya-fox...

If you know anything about me it is that the word collaboration is something that will make my head turn. It’s just an intriguing word to me, ever since I learned how to use it to grow profits in my business.  Over the years I have loved watching some of the big players push boundaries to work together. I find it quite inspiring for ideas in my own company.  These are the things I want to share with you. What some of the greats did and how you can use their examples in your own business, no matter what level you are at.  This week I look at some of the coauthor collaborations that Crocs did that helped set them onto new roads and maps.  I am also going to give you some ideas on how you can take these examples and generate some ideas for your own business. Unless you have phone numbers for some of the people I mention, then by all means use try those first!      Get your copy of my NEW BOOK How to Collaborate Collaborate with me on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tanya-fox...

My guest today is Alan Lazaros. At age 2, his father passed away in a car accident. At age 26, after getting into a nearly fatal car accident himself, Alan questioned everything he was doing in life. He questioned who he was and the choices he was making. He was at an all-time low, and decided to change his trajectory forever. Although he had a successful career in Corporate America, he made the hard decision to start his own business dedicated to helping others get to the Next Level in their life, love, health, and wealth. He is such a wealth of information but the biggest thing is asking questions that really make you think such as: How much does money and status matter?  What is peak performance and why is it important? What should your success be a by product of? How important is personal development?    Find out his answers to these and more in this jam packed episode!    Get your copy of my NEW BOOK How to Collaborate Collaborate with me on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tanya-fox...

How many times have you sat down to do a task in your business and had to close your eyes for a few minutes. Maybe to pump yourself up, maybe to convince yourself to start, or maybe to just once again try to figure out how to not have to ever do the task again?  This is something that all entrepreneurs struggle with.  Operations and SOP aren’t topics that most run to learn about but the truth of the matter is, they are almost always what will move your needle the fastest in your business.  Olivia joins us today to talk about how she learned this lesson herself and turned it into a full time career moving her across countries.  You are going to get some great strategies, a-ha moments, and plenty of “got to write this down right away”.        Get your copy of my NEW BOOK How to Collaborate Available now!

No matter how many times I take a stage I am always surprised by the amount of people that feel they are not capable of "thinking outside of the box".  My clients are no different. Often times this is the first hurdle they need to get over. It is why I dedicated a whole chapter in my book How to Collaborate to this topic.  The truth is we all have this muscle, we just somewhere in adulthood forgot to keep using it.  Today I am going to take you through this very simple exercise so that you can find that muscle again and together we can start to activate it to it's best level.  There are some special gifts at the end as well so if you like free stuff stay tuned on how to get those.  .
