  • 105: Thomas Kaiser – The Revenue Engine
    Sep 16 2024

    Guest: Thomas Kaiser

    Guest Bio:

    Tom Kaiser, Managing Partner at Masterful Coaching, LLC. He has been the President of Global 1000 companies like AIG, Zurich, and Arkwright and an entrepreneur who helped turn Arch Insurance into a $billion company from scratch.

    Tom is also a co-author of The Revenue Engine—How to Double Your Revenue and Transform Your Bottom Line.

    The red thread that runs through Tom’s career is he dramatically increased the revenue of every company he worked with.

    Key Points:

    1. Building Effective Teams:

    o Successful leaders must align their team behind a common vision and ensure they have the right people. Importance of quickly identifying and replacing unaligned or ineffective team members. Everyone in the organization should be involved in sales, not just the sales department.

    2. Coaching vs. Managing:

    o Managers often check boxes, but coaches engage with their teams to help them succeed. Coaching is essential for identifying whether a salesperson is committed and effective.

    3. Increasing Revenue:

    o Empowering every department to contribute to sales can increase revenue without adding headcount. All roles, including non-sales positions like accounting or IT, should be engaged in building customer relationships.

    4. Guiding Principles for Leadership:

    o Find Your Hero: Leaders should identify and be inspired by role models who exemplify the ideals they aspire to.

    o Take a Stand for Something Larger: Leaders should pursue bold, almost impossible goals to drive greater achievements.

    o Leaders should strive to be trusted and genuinely care about their team, similar to a coach who wants their team to win.

  • 104: Simon Severino – Get A Life
    Sep 9 2024
    Guest: Simon Severino Guest Bio: Simon Severino is a LinkedIn Top Voice on sales leadership and sales prospecting. As a shrink-turned-CEO, he had to learn the importance of working ON the business more than IN it. Now, he helps business owners supercharge sales and reclaim 14 hours per week through his Strategy Sprints™ Method. Author of "Strategy Sprints", inventor of the Strategy Sprints™ method. YouTuber, TEDx speaker, Forbes contributor, triathlete, has appeared on over 1300 podcasts. When he is not supercharging sales, you'll find him swimming, biking, running, and tricking his 3 kids into outdoor activities so they can't escape his annoying shrinky questions. Guest Links: Simon’s Tools: strategysprints.com/tools Key Points: 1. Working on vs. Working in the Business: o "In the business" refers to handling immediate operational tasks (client requests, fixing issues). "On the business" involves strategic work, such as growing the business, developing processes, and planning future steps. o Simon emphasizes the importance of carving out time for strategic work, starting with time blocking and documenting processes. 2. Transitioning from Operator to CEO: o Simon shares his journey of moving from daily operations to focusing on business growth. Utilized time blocking, delegation to freelancers, and creating standard operating procedures (SOPs) to manage tasks effectively. 3. The Strategy Sprints Method: o Simon’s Strategy Sprints method involves creating a resilient business model by building systems and delegating tasks. Introduces a certification model for scaling his business and generating additional revenue. 4. Delegation and Avoiding Micromanagement: o Simon encourages business owners to focus on activities they enjoy outside of work, which helps in trusting the team, avoiding micromanagement, and makes delegating easier. 5. Daily Flow Tool: o Simon uses a tool called the "Daily Flow" to track time allocation and identify tasks for delegation. The tool asks two key questions: What task will you delegate tomorrow, and what would you do if you lived more freely? o Regularly practicing this helps business owners gradually delegate more tasks and focus on higher-value activities.
