Revisited – A Franchisor’s Personal Journey Into Business Ownership

 Giuseppe Grammatico - Franchise Freedom

We are going to revisit one of our most downloaded episodes with my good friend  Mark Titcomb of Floor Coverings International. In this episode, Mark talks about starting enterprises out of passion, the mindset game of entrepreneurship, and his transition from the franchisor to the business owner, which helped him create opportunities for his family. Why would you put so much effort into creating someone else if you are a driven individual with particular traits? Mark’s experience demonstrates the importance of beginning to give your dreams the chance they require.

How to Attract Your Ideal Profitable Clients with Josh Zepess

Rocky Lalvani - The Profit Answer Man

Hi, Im the Profit Answer Man Rocky Lalvani! This week I am joined by Josh Zepess to share how to find your ideal clients!

Are you competing in a red ocean full of sharks in a feeding frenzy or open blue waters where you own your business niche?

Business can be easy or hard, and the choice is yours. Be a lighthouse to the world and let your light shine, signaling to others who you are and what you do.

Bio: In a world where dreams are crushed, souls are forgotten, and rust never sleeps, Josh Zepess (the Identity Archaeologist) is on a mission to ensure talented solopreneurs turn every business first impression into a second impression (where the sale happens!) by raising their ROC - Return on Conversation - so they can profit more without grinding more.

After decades on the corporate farm as a shy, introverted engineer, he realized that the cubicle could no longer contain him. So he escaped.  It was a rocky road through entrepreneurship in the financial and gym industries until he finally stopped ignoring his genius.  Now he plays in it, profitably, every day. 

When hes not digging for business gold, he flies airplanes, brews beer, runs long-distance obstacle course races, and is a semi-pro comedian (not the funny kind!)
