Latest Episodes:

AB 239 Live! Thrive and G.O.Y.A. with David Meltzer and Arianna Huffington May 22, 2020

Show notes

One of today’s guests said happiness is the greatest virus and after this episode of All Business with Jeffrey Hayzlett, you’ll see it’s contagious.

David Meltzer, co-founder of Sports 1 Marketing, kicks off the show, but at one time David was the CEO of Leigh Steinberg Sports & Entertainment Agency, the inspiration behind the movie “Jerry Maguire.” His mission is simple, to help people be happy, and both David and Jeffrey agree, that your biggest asset is the ability to connect with people. Also, David shared the meaning of G.O.Y.A. and why we all need to apply that to ourselves once in a while.

Today’s second guest is Arianna Huffington, who needs no introduction. You might recognize her from her best-selling wellness books, her numerous TV appearances, or the news website that still bears her name. She talked about the 4 curves we need to flatten, starting with the COVID-19 curve, the problems the pandemic is exposing with our society, overall health, and mental health. Arianna says ‘behavior trumps genes,’ there are some incredible silver linings coming out of this situation and why now is the perfect time to make those incremental changes in your behavior to make a difference.

Show notes

Get out your business tool belt today. We’re helping you build your platform and leadership skills on today’s All Business with Jeffrey Hayzlett.

We start with technology guru Shelly Palmer. Not only is Shelly the CEO of The Palmer Group, he holds the patents on some of the underlying technology behind some pretty big TV shows. Jeffrey and Shelly go beyond the tech talk and talk about the importance of building your old fashion, in-person network. Then they take a deep dive into the importance of controlling your data, the importance of adapting, and why future-proofing is a waste of your time.

Dr. Gary McGrath, CEO of Statarius, joins us for the second half of the show to drop a leadership bombshell – from his military and corporate experience. Gary boiled leadership into four different value categories and talked about how spending $15 could help you become a better leader. Gary and Jeffrey also discussed about the importance of offering both tough love and compassion to your team.

AB 237 Live! How Tech & Podcasting Can Help Future-Proof Your Business with Tom Edwards and Chris Krimitsos May 20, 2020

Show notes

Getting your message out there and staying authentic are important at any time, but especially now.

Brands across all industries are changing their messaging – giving the people what they want. You’ve seen the TV commercials pushing social responsibility in order to adapt to the current situation; however, some did it quicker while others lingered and scrambled to catch up.

Today’s first guest, Tom Edwards, Technology Evangelist at BlackFin360 and CMO for Tripleclix explains why it’s important for brands to get engaged at a time like this, and the connection between behavior, marketing, and authenticity. Jeffrey and Tom also talk about video games, how tech is changing our lives, and how it could change our environment (not birds and trees) in the not so distant future.

Podcasting is a great way to get your message out there and few people know more about podcasting than Chris Krimitsos, founder of Cutting Edge Events. He runs PodFest, one of the country’s largest podcasting conventions. Like many businesses, Chris is pivoting from in-person to online events, while also trying to experiment with the online format. Jeffrey and Chris get into what it takes to start a podcast, why now is a good time to do so, and the biggest mistake podcasters make.

AB 236 Live! Igniting Change with Mary Lue Peck and Dr. Jeffrey Magee May 19, 2020

Show notes

CChange is in the air.

Today’s first guest is Mary Lue Peck, CEO of the National Speakers Association (NSA). Her job is to build, maintain, and grow the professional speaking community as well as be receptive to change – leading with yes. NSA is changing its business model to be adaptable for the world we now live in. Mary Lue says we need to think of all big events, virtual and in person as more than an 8-hour daily lecture series. Despite admitting they have fallen behind attracting more Millennials and Gen Z’ers, they’re changing that to entice younger professionals interested in pursuing a speaking career.

Speaking of the next generation, today’s second guest has some advice for them: “sit down, shut up and listen up.” Dr. Jeffrey Magee is not only a professional speaker himself, but a best-selling author, trainer, and publisher of Professional Performance Magazine. You better get comfortable for this interview because Dr. Magee talks fast and gives a lot of key insights. He says that following your passion won’t lead to success, that leaders can be developed, and that you need to truly understand the six hats a leader needs to wear to be successful.

AB 235 Live! Leadership, Lies and Learning with Bob Pizzini and Traci Brown May 18, 2020

Show notes

You never stop learning and today’s guests are proof of that adage.

Bob Pizzini is a decorated naval officer who used to dismantle bombs throughout his 26 year career. Now, he’s a business owner and CEO of iFly Virginia Beach -- an indoor skydiving franchise, and helps train the next generation of leaders as CEO of Elevate Your Leadership.

Bob says it’s important that everyone on your team is aware of their level of responsibility and where they fit into the success of the operation. This doesn’t mean that leaders shouldn’t stop learning, Bob calls leadership a “perishable” skill. In fact, find out what skills Bob says all leaders should constantly brush up on.

Can you tell when you’re being lied to? Our second guest does. Traci Brown is a fraud-busting, body language expert who made a living interpreting the body language of criminals and politicians (and sometimes, they’re one in the same). While Traci doesn’t give away all her tools of the trade, she does lend us all some insight into how to spot a liar (HINT: you need to know which questions to ask). She also gives you a time-tested technique used by the best interrogators in the business to find out if a story is true. Traci also leaves us with a prediction about a very prominent politician.

AB 231 Live! Zig While Others Zag with Andy Lefkowitz and Linda Popky May 12, 2020

Show notes

In business real success happens when you go against the grain. Both of our guests today on All Business saw the opportunities where others didn’t – and they reaped the benefits.

Agriculture is more than an idyllic vision of a green farm field. The industry itself isn’t the most environmentally friendly and has been impacted by a number of factors outside their control. Our first guest Andy Lefkowitz, Chairman and CEO of Locus Fermentation Solutions, a company that uses probiotics to help farmers grow crops. Locus is not just focused on farming, but in developing cleaner ways of getting oil out of the ground. Jeffrey and Andy talk about the benefits of going natural and going back to basics.

The second half of the show Linda Popky, President of Leverage2Market Associates, joins Jeffrey to talk about finding opportunities during the pandemic. Both Jeffrey and Linda agree now is the time to run into the fire, not sit on the sidelines, and now is the time to rise above the noise. While there may be more outlets than ever to get your message out, the basics of marketing are as old as time. Linda and Jeffrey also talk about the importance of writing a book, how to do it and how to use it strategically to build your brand.

AB 230 Live! Be a Positive Disruptor with Daniel Burrus and Becky Blue May 11, 2020

Show notes

Today on All Business with Jeffrey Hayzlett, we have two guests in different industries who are using the current climate of disruption for good.

Jeffrey’s first guest is futurist Daniel Burrus. He has built his business on disruption; in fact, he’s been working with companies across several industries since the pandemic started, telling them now is the time to hit the transform button. Digital Disruption isn’t taking a vacation during the pandemic and neither should your business. Daniel says the future is a “both/and” proposition not “either/or.” It’s time to look at the trends and move with them.

In the second part of the show, Becky Blue joins Jeffrey. She owns two wineries in the Napa Valley and weight loss franchises, Profile by Sanford, in the Nashville, TN area, among others. Becky talks about how one of her businesses uses the F.O.R.D. acronym to keep in touch with clients during the pandemic and why staying in touch with clients is key during this time. Even though COVID-19 is a trying time, this is a perfect time to communicate your value to your customers.
