Whiskey Making (and Selling) Mistakes with Dan Garrison & Donnis Todd
10/19/20 • 31 min
Owner and Master Distiller from Garrison Brothers Distillery
Show notes: http://www.markgraban.com/mistake11
We have two special guests from Garrison Brothers Distillery joining us for Episode #11. They are Dan Garrison, founder and CEO of the distillery and Donnis Todd, their master distiller.
I've known Dan and Donnis since I first had the chance to visit their distillery in Hye, TX back in 2013 as part of an MIT alumni group visit. I've visited many times and I've volunteered as a bottler, as I've blogged about. I love the people, the place, and the product -- their Texas Straight Bourbon Whiskeys, many of which are award winners.
In the episode, Donnis tells a story about a time when he let some whiskey age one year too long... and what he learned from the mistake (and how Dan handled it). Dan talks about a mistake he made with one of their key national retailer relationships and what he learned from that. They both talk about how they've created a culture of "fessin' up" to mistakes when you make them and why that's so important to their company.

Joining me for Episode #12 is Angel Cellucci, a nurse practitioner and an entrepreneur. She is owner and CEO of two firms related to fighting medical billing fraud and mistakes: Medical Fraud Fighters and Overbrook Consultants, Angel is a Board-Certified Family Nurse Practitioner. She has been a nurse for over 20 years and a Family Nurse Practitioner for almost 10.
In the episode, Angel shares her favorite mistake of "chasing shiny objects" as a new entrepreneur -- what she means by that and what she's learned from that. We also talk about her work and passion around medical billing mistakes and what patients can do to protect themselves from that. Is that problem with your bill (and 93% have an error) a mistake or is it intentional? Human error or blatant fraud?
She has a free eBook available on her website: "The 5 Things You Can Do To Protect Yourself From Medical Fraud & Abuse."
