I love building small businesses. I went to law school and business school, but I couldn't get excited about going to work for a big consulting or law firm. Small business growth is what I love. I get to do that every day at Infusionsoft... helping OUR business grow by helping tens of thousands of entrepreneurs grow their businesses using our marketing and sales software.
Specialties: All things related to small business growth.
I host the podcast Unthinkable, write the weekly newsletter Playing Favorites, and develop podcasts and docuseries for mission-driven brands, authors, and entrepreneurs. I'm also a frequent keynote speaker, and the author of the book Break the Wheel.
It is my personal, professional mission to help others make work that matters -- to their careers, their companies, and their communities.
I see creativity as a form of problem solving and leadership. It's a means of raising your hand to lead and investigate and improve things, and I want to help others frame their work as such. That can help us see the work and the world better and differently.
Before becoming a content entrepreneur, I held marketing and media roles at Google, HubSpot, and the VC firm NextView.
My biggest ambition and maybe grandest delusion is to be the Anthony Bourdain of business storytelling :)
Experienced in management and operations in multiple fields.
Most recently 4 years experience in project management and solution implementation in the software industry. This opportunity was instrumental in my personal and professional development as I was exposed to all aspects of software sales, development, implementation and support. I also gained valuable insight into the Telecommunications industry and through interaction with dozens of clients understand how our software was utilized in their daily operations.
Prior to that drawing upon my years of service industry experience as well as my management training I spent 4 years in cafe management which included areas such as menu creation, inventory management & control, hiring/training/scheduling/evaluation of staff as well as budgeting and reporting.
