The Dead Pixels Society podcast Gary Pageau

Are you ready to challenge the status quo and dare to be different in business?  Gary Pageau of the Dead Pixels Society sits down with Roy Osing, a seasoned entrepreneur who's trailblazed his way through the Canadian telecom industry, establishing a multi-billion dollar company from scratch over the span of 40 years. Osing's mantra - "be different or be dead" - has been the backbone of his audacious journey, driving him to constantly innovate, creating ripples of value for his customers, and making a name for himself in an aggressively competitive market.

Osing dissects the magic of differentiation through customer experiences. It's not just about selling products, but about offering an experience that customers can't resist while ensuring that you're the only game in town offering it. This discussion is peppered with personal encounters of working with small companies, outlining the significance of differentiation, and the power of prioritizing the customer experience above all else.

Osing also dives into the world of audacious leadership and its role in shaping business strategy. He shares the story of assisting a boat-selling company in crafting a unique statement centered on the desires of its customers. He also touches upon the concept of leadership by serving, and how this seemingly simple idea can pave the way to success in business.
