Tony Guarnaccia: The Importance Of Building Resilience Into Your Business
07/30/20 • 48 min
If the Covid-19 pandemic has taught us anything, it’s that we all need to be prepared to navigate our business (and lives) through disruption and uncertainty so it's strong and secure enough to weather any storm and emerge stronger from it.
The question is how do we do this?
The simple answer is by building resilience into your business.
The longer answer is what I’m going to be discussing with my guest today, Founder of Results Trained Tony Guarnaccia, who is here to share with you a new approach to growing your business, by focusing on taking the small steps necessary to grow your profits in any economy, and build a business that lasts.
As you'll hear, Tony HAD to have resilience. From being homeless (twice) to working with some of the greatest companies in the world like Google, Ford and ADP, he’s lived through both the peaks and valleys of life.
On this episode:
- Why Tony and I aren't just a couple of idiots standing on the side of a river...
- What is business resilience?
- The first thing to focus on when things go wrong.
- The 6 growth factors that work for every business.
- Resilience lessons you can learn from failure.
- If you can clearly explain this... Your company WILL grow.
- The formula for Exponential growth.
And much more!

Martin Knapp: Leveraging Virtual Networking Events To Attract Clients & Nurture Existing Relationships
For many people, networking events are one of the main (if not the primary) source of clients for their business.
So what happens when all of a sudden the world goes into lockdown and social distancing restrictions take this source of clients (and revenue) away?
Well a lot of people freaked out. No surprise there. But it’s even more scary if you’re the one putting these events together!!
However, the savvy ones took a step back and looked at the situation, assessed it for what it was and made a fast shift. They took what makes these events successful in the real world, and went virtual.
That’s what my guest today Martin Knapp has done, and he’s here to talk about the benefits of virtual networking, how it differs from face to face, and share his story about the importance of being open to making fast changes to your offer in the face of massive disruption.
Martin is founder of Bookable.Online, an automated CRM system where you can manage and market your business from one spot, as well as the creator of Business Breakout Virtual Networking which is a part mastermind, part networking group giving members an opportunity to meet other business owners, collaborate, and learn from business leaders.
On this episode:
- The importance of being flexible in the face of massive disruption.
- The difference between virtual and in person networking.
- Misconceptions about networking and how to make it work for you.
- How Hollywood movies can help you to make the perfect 30 second introduction.
- Tips on how to pitch your business with confidence.
- Business lessons from war, wall street and poker...
- How to run your own effective virtual networking event to build an audience.
- Avoid the biggest mistake people make with networking (that has nothing to do with being in the room...).
And much more!
