    Re Perez: Your Brand Should Be Gay (Even If You're Not)

    In this Episode, Denise and Re Discuss: Why your brand should be gay (even if you’re not). Why branding should matter to a busy entrepreneur. What are the biggest branding mistakes entrepreneurs make in their business. Examples of “experiential” branding. How can an entrepreneur determine how they make their customers “feel.” Key Takeaways: The perception that people have of your brand will dictate how much they are willing to spend for your product and services. Branding starts with first determining who your target audience is. The #1 criteria for a company name is memorability. There are three different components that make up a brand: Visual / Verbal / Experiential. AKA How you look. What you say. How you behave. Ask people what the top things that are most important when they come to a website, and how well your website performs against those things. “You don’t actually own your brand. It resides in people’s minds.” - Re Perez About Re Perez: Re Perez is a seasoned Brand Consultant, with a Fortune 500 background at top global brand consultancies including Interbrand and Siegel+Gale. Since 2011, his agency BRANDING FOR THE PEOPLE, has delivered Fortune 500-level branding to thousands of entrepreneurs across 45+ different industries around the world—from start-ups, Inc. 500 fastest growing companies, and established multi million-dollar businesses. He has a proven track record for helping his clients double, triple and quadruple their business.

    Lisa Cherney: Be Unapologetically You

    In this Episode, Denise and Lisa Discuss: The benefits of being unapologetic or GFRing? Lisa’s GFR Commandments, and how to use them in life. GFR Commandment #5 – “Make Yourself Your Most Important Client” GFR Commandment #3 – “Don’t Worry About Being Normal, Proper, or Polite.” The biggest mistakes business owners make in their marketing. How Lisa uses meditation to enhance her performance as an entrepreneur.   Key Takeaways: Ask yourself: “What would I say to the people I want to help if I wasn’t worried about being rude or losing them?” Then say that to them. They deserve your honesty and your help, and most people will find that refreshing. Most business owners are afraid to take a stand in the marketing, and as a result, they speak to no one. You should not feel guilty about having an opinion and taking a stand, even if some people won’t agree with you.   “If I wasn’t worried about any negative outcome, what would I really say?” - Lisa Cherney   About Lisa Cherney: Lisa Cherney, now known as The Queen of Clarity, is host of the ground-breaking confession-based Get F***ing Real show for successful soulful entrepreneurs and founder of the GFR Squad, a lively community that is serious about embracing the GFR lifestyle and living a life without regrets. In 2014, after 15 years in business, Lisa Cherney got f***ing real and dismantled her successful 7-Figure business as the Juicy Marketing Expert.  She was proud of the financial accomplishment, but burdened by the “monster” she created. It did not make her happy. To makes things worse her “6-Figures On Your Terms” events were helping hundreds of entrepreneurs make money fulfilling their mission and her refreshing “Cash Through Clarity” Marketing training was in high-demand around the world. But Lisa learned that just because something is successful and people like it, doesn’t mean you have to keep doing it.  She always knew she had a low tolerance for not being happy (after all she left a “successful” corporate career, with companies like AT&T and Lipton at age 28), but now she knows her mission is to help other successful and soulful business owners GFR so they can get out of their own way and help more people! Other f***ing real fun facts about Lisa are: She is lazy (This inspires lots of creativity on how to get stuff done with the least amount of effort) She loves TV (This is how she unwinds and her TiVo is one of her most prized possessions) She can’t spell for shit (Another outlet for creativity) She didn’t want kids (Until 10 years into her marriage - She has one 13 year old and is convinced she got it “right” the first time.) Her husband, of nearly 25 years, is way cooler than her (He is an engineer, chiropractor, singer/songwriter and World’s Greatest Dance Dad) She is not a certified coach,

    Carrie Gunderson: Relationship and Parenting Hacks

    In this Episode, Denise and Carrie Discuss: How to create quality of life when married to a hard charging entrepreneur. Why it’s important (and incredibly effective) to have a weekly couples’ meeting and use a meeting agenda like you would do for any important business meeting. Being an excellent parent even as a busy entrepreneur (or spouse of one.) The importance of having a family vision and having one spouse being responsible for holding that vision for the family. How to spend quality time with your family and leave your work at the office. Key Takeaways: You should have a weekly meeting with your spouse and cover important communication items (like travel schedule, “honey-do list”, how to best support the kids’ activities that week, and more.) Have regular date nights with your spouse like when you were first dating. Involve your children in the weekly meetings. Rate each other in each weekly meeting on how you are doing as a spouse and how you are doing as a parent. It can help keep each other accountable to putting the family as a priority. To download the videos and sample meeting agenda discussed in the interview, please visit: www.wealthfactory.com/marriage “Our vision for our home, is more important than the vision for the company.” - Carrie Gunderson   About Carrie Gunderson: Carrie Gunderson is an extraordinary mother and wife (of serial entrepreneur Garrett Gunderson). She has dedicated her life to adding value and love to those she comes in contact with. She is passionate about health and heath freedom.   As a fact finder by nature, she has rigorously researched health and nutrition, through books, interviews, scouring the world to find solutions, and discovering the truth for herself and others. She is a gifted teacher; beginning with her career as a first grade teacher, to being asked to share her amazing energy and gifts on stage. Carrie meditates for two and a half hours a day which has given her insight and the power to love, accept and forgive, and be the best version of herself. If you need or want advice or comfort, there is nobody more gifted with perspective, empathy, and solutions than her.  She is a force for all that is good in humanity.   She has a unique gift to gently bring a mirror for people to see where they are limiting their life, potential and happiness. In Carrie’s downtime you might find her listening to records, drinking lattes, out for great Mexican food, traveling the world, or on a date with her husband at a concert, comedy, or cinema.  But most likely she will be at her cabin “The Shady Place”.
