Earn More Do Less Podcast Christine Roman

Intriguing, Introspective, Soft Spoken, Laugh-Worthy, and Light, yet extremely Matter Of Fact is how many describe Peter Ollestad. He is a man who has his head, heart and gut all operating in ways that his world cannot get enough of. As for his work, Peter is passionate about winning vanity sales and gaining more market share for Strasser in the most heart-centered ways!

He first met our team when Christine was rocking it out in her “Mermaid With The Mostest'' get-up at the Decorative Plumbing and Hardware Association’s Annual Product Showcase in Austin, TX in October of 2021. She was raffling off the biggest bottle of Belvedere Vodka one can buy, and Peter and his team had multiple ticket submissions in the fish bowl with high hopes of winning.

Internet Savvy, Innovative, Kind, Caring, and a Relationship Rainmaker like no other is what Karl Ivester is all about. In our interview, Karl described himself as not being a “puck chaser” in any aspect of life - meaning that he likes to lead trends VS follow them or get involved with them after it’s too late.

As for Karl’s proven effective strategies and methods for being friendly, firm, resourceful, and reliable in life and business, well, they should be followed and implemented by every on-the-move businessperson.

Witty, Gritty, Sassy, and Classy are just a few attributes that accurately describe Amy Siders, Showroom Manager of Waterhouse BKS (Bath and Kitchen Showroom) in Perrysburg, OH. With a 25-year history in the retail industry, Amy laughingly describes how she NEVER envisioned a career path that included developing a brand, for a company that served the chicest interior designers and builders, hippest homeowners, and committed community leaders, in her area at any time previously. Despite her dreams of being the next rebel rockstar and nationally syndicated disc jockey like Shadow Stevens being shattered at an early age, Amy has quickly become one heck of a heart-centered, nationally praised thought leader for sharing how-to strategies about building, managing, and creating a culture and family-like fabric around the “destination showroom,” she now nourishes and cares for, as if it’s her third child!
