    Gaining The Attention Of Decision Makers

    Gaining The Attention Of Decision Makers

    Jeremy Boerger joins Joshua Maddux on this weeks episode of In The Bunker to talk about Gaining The Attention Of Decision Makers. Jeremy talks about how he is working to get the attention of the c-suite and decision makers. He notes that he is still working on overcoming it and how partnering with other service providers has been very helpful.
    Our episode highlights:
    Get your product honed in. What’s the problem that you are going to solve, and explain it in 5-10 words or less. C-suite NEVER has time to read anything, because they are putting out fires… How can you solve that pain point and NOT be one?Become the thought leader on the topic. (blog, LinkedIn posts, Book, podcast, other)4 most important words in business are “I know a guy/girl”.If this does not help you, tell me why so I can make sure that I can help the next person.
    Bio: Jeremy Boerger’s work in asset management started way back in 2000 fighting the Y2K bug. At that time, he set out to approach ITAM in a way no one had tried before: Jeremy began combining data theory with automation and self governance while consultants were answering tickets and running inventories when he began​.
    The Pragmatic ITAM Method grew out of the success of ​his experiment and today, companies and organizations hire Jeremy to implement better solutions and coach their teams to ensure the positive results are permanent. ​
    Jeremy is on the Board of Advisors at Neocor. His previous roles before starting Boerger Consulting include: Manager ll at Mercy Health, Asset Administrator at Atos, Associate, Enterprise SAM: JPMorgan Chase.​
    When Jeremy is not traveling or staring at multiple monitors​ you’ll find him hanging out at home in Cincinnati with his wife, kids, and two very large dogs.​

Takeaways from “In the Bunker”

This first episode of In The Bunker by Joshua Maddox speaking with Charles Antis Roofing & Waterproofing was inspirational. Often we hear about business owners journeys when things are going well. Charles speaks about his philosophy of giving that he has used to get through the grueling challenging times when he was just beginning. Joshua hit this first episode out of the park! Take a moment to listen. I’m leaving with adding two more items to my daily thankful and gratitude journaling…2 things that will make the day great and 2 ‘I am…’. You will be inspired! Time well spent!

Such an inspirational listen!

I loved hearing from a business owner/entrepreneur about what it has looked like to be generous and give back to the their community. I am looking forward to hearing more stories from other voices so that I can learn from them.
