    <title>the Best Of Business Smarts</title>
    <description>Jumping into the world of entrepreneurship calls for strategic planning and careful preparation. It needs a lot of your attention for it to become profitable and successful. But sometimes, even with all your hard work, it still feels like you are accomplishing nothing. You continue to fall short on hitting your goals and earn just enough to get through. What can you do to get out of this hamster wheel? Welcome to Business Smarts, your guide on becoming a more intelligent entrepreneur who brings their business to the next level. This is the most informative podcast any entrepreneur could ask for if they want to have a better idea of the ins and outs of the competitive market. Whether you are a start-up brand that wants to fast-track its setup process or a medium-sized one seeking a much bigger revenue, this podcast is the best place to learn.  Time to make some actual progress and put an end to your seemingly endless plateau. Discover how to create proper metrics to measure your growth and develop smarter sales strategies. Find out the most effective marketing techniques, tax strategies, people management ideas, and a lot more. Listen to the most reliable and proficient individuals sharing valuable entrepreneurship insights and perspectives. Tune in to attorneys, business agents, professional marketers, advertising gurus, and all kinds of experts from various industries. Get the best actionable advice from these exemplary individuals and gather pearls of wisdom from their inspiring experiences. The host of the podcast is Cindy Brown, CPA, MBA. She was a founding member of a dot com incubator that provided support for emerging online-based companies. She has had multiple businesses over the years, taking on CFO and CEO roles in various start-up companies. Cindy worked on numerous board of directors for both public and private sectors for more than 35 years. Among her main focuses are corporate finance, operations and management, healthcare, and entertainment. This vast experience allowed Cindy to build a network of business partners and contacts. She brings most of them to the podcast to talk about their entrepreneurship expertise and business secrets. Cindy is the perfect fit for the podcast host role because of her unparalleled expertise in managing different aspects of a business life cycle. She showcases her incredible knowledge in guiding entrepreneurs, starting from the inception stage all the way to divestiture. Cindy is also a certified expert in developing dashboard reports, finding appropriate funding solutions, and designing grant and fund accounting, among others. Successful entrepreneurs are typically determined by their revenue growth, following numbers, and overall brand power. But going deeper, it is someone who can switch from being an operator to behaving like a true owner. They are those who rose beyond the challenges and embraced every bit of self-doubt. This is what you should be aiming for: to be working on your business instead of working in it. If you want to achieve significant business growth, be sure to approach it in the smartest manner possible. More than the huge earnings is the fulfillment you gain from running a thriving business. Be the one in control. Do not let your business be the main anchor of your life. It should be serving you instead of the other way around. A flourishing business requires no less than an intelligent and well-informed leader. Join the conversations right here at Business Smarts and make that long-overdue shift in your entrepreneurship style. Never miss an episode at https://bwm-cpa.com/podcast/.</description>

      <title>Creating And Leveraging Your Brand Roadmap With Giselle Achecar</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>You are your brand. You just need to know how to tell the world who you are. This is where the brand roadmap comes into place. You need to set brand goals, define your brand, know your ideal client, and write your brand story. If you can do all those things, you'll build brand trust and loyalty. And once you have that, your brand is ready to grow.<br />This week, Cindy Brown talks with brand builder, coach, and storyteller Giselle Achecar about the Brand Roadmap. Discover the four-pillar system designed to give you the clarity, confidence, and skills to define your brand. Craft a brand story and create content for your marketing materials. You know your business better than anyone. Leverage that knowledge to build your brand.<br />01 — Set Your Brand GoalsDetermine your brand goals and develop the insights and growth mindset needed to achieve them. Know where you are today and where you want to be in 12 months, then set milestones to manifest that vision.<br />02 — Define Your BrandThe road to defining your brand begins with knowing your brand purpose, your mission/vision/values, the problem you solve, and the benefits you provide your ideal client. Only then can you differentiate yourself in the marketplace.<br />03 — Know Your Ideal ClientUnderstand your ideal client by determining who they are, how they behave, and what they value. Ideal clients become brand advocates when their experience with your brand makes them believe they are part of something bigger than themselves.<br />04 — Write Your Brand StoryA great brand story emotionally engages your ideal clients and stakeholders, creating an experience that builds trust and brand loyalty.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>A lot of people think that investing in the stock market is just for those suits on Wallstreet. It's not. Anyone can invest now! All you need is confidence. Anyone can invest, regardless of gender or nationality. You just need to be able to reframe your mindset on investing because it can actually put you at less risk and double your returns. Diversification is one way to balance risk and reward in your investment portfolio by diversifying your assets. It is the practice of spreading your investments around so that your exposure to any one type of asset is limited. This practice is designed to help reduce the volatility of your portfolio over time. This week Cindy Brown talks to <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/andy-gupta/" target="_blank">Andy Gupta</a>, founder of <a href="https://maven.com/andy-gupta/anyone-can-invest-now" target="_blank">Anyone Can Invest Now</a> and former Goldman Sachs analyst.

      <title>Business Insurance Basics: Protecting Your Business With Adam Glenn</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Most small businesses are either over-insured or improperly insured, costing money and creating risk. This week, <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/glennadam/" target="_blank">Adam Glenn</a> brings the perfect formula of &quot;just the right&quot; amount of insurance for your business.  With a background that includes working for a global public accounting firm and dealing with CEOs and CFOs of mid-market and Fortune 500 companies, building and subsequently selling a business, and nearly 10 years of successful business-to-business sales within the insurance industry, Adam brings a unique perspective to assisting middle-market companies with their commercial Property and Casualty Insurance. He approaches each challenge from the perspective of a business owner, utilizing his technical expertise and high-level problem solving to find solutions that are in the best interest of his clients.  Insurance is just one form of risk management, and the lowest cost provider usually leaves a business exposed to loss beyond what they are prepared to handle. Successful and growing businesses need an insurance broker they can trust to assess their needs and provide a customized insurance program that is cost-effective but, more importantly, effective at managing the day-to-day risks of operating a business.  Join this conversation as Adam covers the basics of business insurance. He shares how we can identify the right insurance broker and how to secure good business insurance. Plus, he reveals some of the mistakes entrepreneurs often fall into, revealing insights on how to avoid them.<br />Love the show?

      <itunes:summary>Most small businesses are either over-insured or improperly insured, costing money and creating risk. This week, Adam Glenn brings the perfect formula of &quot;just the right&quot; amount of insurance for your business.  With a background that includes working for a global public accounting firm and dealing with CEOs and CFOs of mid-market and Fortune 500 companies, building and subsequently selling a business, and nearly 10 years of successful business-to-business sales within the insurance industry, Adam brings a unique perspective to assisting middle-market companies with their commercial Property and Casualty Insurance. He approaches each challenge from the perspective of a business owner, utilizing his technical expertise and high-level problem solving to find solutions that are in the best interest of his clients.  Insurance is just one form of risk management, and the lowest cost provider usually leaves a business exposed to loss beyond what they are prepared to handle. Successful and growing businesses need an insurance broker they can trust to assess their needs and provide a customized insurance program that is cost-effective but, more importantly, effective at managing the day-to-day risks of operating a business.  Join this conversation as Adam covers the basics of business insurance. He shares how we can identify the right insurance broker and how to secure good business insurance. Plus, he reveals some of the mistakes entrepreneurs often fall into, revealing insights on how to avoid them.Love the show?
