128: Your Job on Stage Is Not What You Think It Is!- The Great Storyteller’s Secret with Chip Brewer
04/13/21 • 45 min
“Relationship is the foundation of all stories that are told. If you can't find a relationship, you're probably not telling a story.” -Chip Brewer
Storytelling is as old as human history, and knowing this reminds us that this ancient art still runs in our blood. This week, I am thrilled to speak with improv speaker, author, and storyteller Chip Brewer. Chip has been performing improvs for more than 20 years now and is passionate about teaching his secrets to those who want to get better at this craft.
Storytelling is the heart of marketing. Without stories, no business will exist. And it’s not because companies have to keep their customers entertained, but because behind every sale is a story that resonates with a customer’s unique experience. Yet, some may argue that storytelling is not a language they can speak well. Indeed, some people are more linguistically sharp than others, but as entrepreneurs, authors, speakers, and leaders always on the stage, storytelling is a highway to reach your vision.
In this episode, Chip discusses big topics such as teamwork, storytelling, and stagecraft. He shares how man’s desire and innate ability to tell and listen to stories can help promote your brand and establish a solid connection to others. Learn the fundamentals, key elements, structure, and rules of storytelling and improv. As a treat, Chip also shares some exercises and games to help you hone your storytelling skills.

127: Laid Back Launch- The Launch Method You’ve Been Waiting For! with Cody Burch
Description:
“I believe the idea of the velocity of money. If you want to sit and meditate on your idea for six months, that's not helping anybody. We need to get the idea out into the world and start helping people.” -Cody Burch
Wouldn’t it be nice if product launches make your life easy rather than stressful? This week, Cody Burch drops by the KPKG stage to share his marketing expertise. Cody is the Founder of Funnels and Ads Mastery (FAM), an online community for entrepreneurs who want to level up their marketing skills. Cody helps his clients reclaim their freedom while moving towards their goals fast and simple.
As exciting as it sounds, launching a product is complicated and stressful, from conceptualizing to the actual launch day. Not to mention the elaborate work and the expenses you have to put into it. And sometimes, while the intent is to help others, the launch still fails. Therefore, it’s not surprising that many entrepreneurs get overwhelmed and devastated beyond imagination. But what if you can eliminate the majority of the launch process and go straight to finding potential customers and earning money?
In this episode, Cody introduces us to the launch method of your dreams- the Laid Back Launch. It is literally what it says. Cody discusses how the Laid Back Launch can help you navigate through the world of launches so you can go out and start helping people the soonest possible. He also drops practical steps you can take before you throw your funding and create deliverables. Cody also shares how to engage your customers, why feedbacks are crucial to the success of your launch, and when to level up your game.

129: Lessons on Finance and Entrepreneurship from Wall Street Bankers with Bernardo Weaver
“People sometimes don't have access to the same opportunities... so the training is ever more important to put everybody on the same level, to give another chance to someone who didn't have the best education to come up to the next level.” -Bernardo Weaver
Wall Street, as a global financial center for centuries, stands and continues to grow. But what can we learn from this structured industry, especially in the early stages of our business? In this episode, I am pumped to have on the show Bernardo Weaver, Founder of Weaver Advisory LLC., and also a good friend of mine. Bernardo spent over 20 years as an advisor for the World Bank and financial modeling instructor and trainer for top investment banks. He and his team help organizations find tailored solutions for their PPP projects, valuations, and financial dilemmas.
Bureaucracy and over-regulation plague the financial industry. If we look at entrepreneurship in terms of economics and resource allocation, small and average-sized businesses barely stand a chance. Thankfully, modernization is slowly bypassing the traditional banking institutions to pave the way for small business owners to succeed.
Although having their advantages, there are elites and educated people who are yet to uncover the secret of wealth. In this conversation, Bernardo and I had an incredible exchange about the financial industry and entrepreneurship. Bernardo will take you deep into the realm of world banking and some insider tips and secrets about how this giant institution makes money and how small business owners can take advantage of this structure to uplevel their game and find their niche. He also shares the importance of training and how it can help entrepreneurs break free from the trap of overeducation and demographics. The tables turned as Bernardo takes charge of the questioning (ha ha!) and I get to talk about balancing the service delivery and management aspect of your business and making your business more profitable despite the risks.
