    Brand/Marketing & Thinking Strategy - the Final Episode

    Marketing is the strategy and tactics of asking the girl out, but branding is why she says YES. This episode delves into how businesses drive messaging and new customers and ultimately...revenue. We like revenue. Every young man should fully adopt the 'brand' of whichever outfit he works for - you owe that to the organization that pays you money. So - ride for the brand and good luck out there!

    What Makes a Business a Business - Episode 5 of 10

    Episode 5 - A couple of the guys discover that they have an earlier draft of the book - so they sort that out and then get into it. The hijinks ensue! The editor suggested a change -Chapter 5 is 'what makes a business a business?' We break down the parts of a business: Administration/Operations/Biz Development. Value production in either a product or service is the key - gotta find that/build that or there's no business to speak of. There's a bad word at the end - be warned - if kids are in your truck or something.

    Business Is the Last Frontier. - Episode 3 of 10

    So, we've discussed that business is HARD, but it is also extremely GOOD, and now, in episode three --- we discuss that it might be the last frontier. Business might be the only way that young men test themselves, experience adventure: defeats and victories, and discover new territories. When all the oceans and mountains and our solar system are mapped and we have the images - maybe innovation and new business ventures provide the only way for men to test their mettle. It's better if you have men around you - this is that discussion.
