Making Cents of It All Jesse Stakes

Technology in infiltrated all sectors of the US economy in 2023 - including the AEC space.  Not familiar with the term?  Neither was I until I met Justin Neagle.  Justin is part of the leadership team and the Chief Storyteller at Spot Migration.  Justin and the team at Spot Migration focus on the intersection of People, Process, and Technology and how that comes together for their clients.  Justin also co-hosts his own podcast, Building Scale, that helps bring resources and experts around the AEC space together.   

My guest this week is Certified Public Accountant, Rachel Siegel.  Rachel is the founder and owner of Go Figure Accounting.  They are a small, specialized firm that those that Serve Us - nationwide.  Rachel and her team operate under the Profit First model.  Profit First is a cash management technique developed by Mike Michalowicz that treats profit as part of your budget, rather than the lucky leftovers. Using intuitive methods that work with human behavior, people develop money-saving habits that actually stick.  Rachel and her team pride themselves providing quality counsel and advice for their clients.  Enjoy my conversation with Rachel Siegel

It's hard to believe that I launched this podcast 9 months ago now.  Nelson Bradshaw was my very first guest on the show and I am happy to be able to bring him back this week.  
Last time, we talked a lot about Nelson, his career, and his deep involvement in the community.  This time, I thought we would talk a lot more about Farther, his role there as the Managing Director of Bank Strategies, and what makes their offering different in a very competitive landscape.   Farther's motto is "move your wealth forward".  Enjoy the conversation with Nelson and learning more about how the team at Farther does just that.  

This week we are traveling across the pond to talk with the UK's own Sales Marvel, Keith Rozelle.  Right of the bat, he'll share with you why he is the Sales Marvel.  The globe is getting to be a smaller place every day.  Tools such as LinkedIn connect our global business community and give us ways to share ideas and lessons that we used to have to seek out.  Keith is a mentor, a writer, a coach, consultant, a resource, and so many more things to so many people.  To sum it all up, he's a Sales Marvel!  

Ben Hippeli - Founder of Benchmark Training is my guest this week.  Benchmark Training working with their clients to build a culture of profitability through people development.   Ben has successfully started multiple businesses.  As you will hear, not only does he work with leaders and sales professionals, but he is also a Professor of Professional Selling at the University of North Florida.  To steal a line from their website, Ben helps bridge the gap between college graduates and the business community. 

This week's guest is Bruce Breedlove.  Bruce has a great story that I am happy to share with you.  He is a self-made person that was able to put himself through nursing school and found ways to exponentially grow his personal wealth by putting his money to work for him in the background while he has continued to do the same.  This is no knock on Bruce whatsoever - but these are things that we all can do and take advantage of.  You don't need to be the smartest guy in the room and you don't need to make a million to be worth a million.
