Tune in to discover why your story is worth taking the stage for, and how to start speaking truth into your business! https://communicategreat.online/ [SOCIALShttps://communicategreat.online/] https://www.linkedin.com/in/traci-poe-communicate-great/ [https://www.linkedin.com/in/traci-poe-communicate-great/] https://www.baghrconsulting.com/ [https://www.baghrconsulting.com/] linkedin.com/in/barbaragiesing [https://www.linkedin.com/in/barbaragiesing/] * Key Takeaways * The Power of "Oh Yes, I Did!": Born out of the mastermind group "Oh Yes, I Can," Traci Poe partnered with publisher Amy Vogel to create a collaborative book featuring diverse women entrepreneurs . Officially launching at their Summer Summit on July 17th, the project features distinct strategies and stories to help women flourish and rise to their dream businesses . * Overcoming the Introvert Barrier: Both Barbara and Traci openly identify as deep introverts who faced intense anxiety about putting themselves visible in the market . They emphasize that your message and story matter enough to overcome fear and "take the stage," whether virtually or physically . * Shifting from Competition to Collaboration: Real growth happens when entrepreneurs view each other as collaborators rather than competitors . Teaming up allows business owners to support one another, share resources, and respectfully borrow each other's audiences to propel both brands forward . * Job Descriptions as "Drama Exterminators": Barbara highlights that failing to write clear job descriptions is a massive small business mistake . Putting expectations in writing eliminates workplace drama, establishes baseline measures for success, and helps you accurately determine if you truly need full-time, part-time, or seasonal skillsets . * The High Cost of Survival-Mode Hiring: Hiring an employee out of pure survival mode without a clear, written plan quickly drains your time and money . If the arrangement doesn't work out, a clear structure allows both parties to part ways respectfully and transparently, rather than letting silent frustrations build up to a blowout firing . * Communicating with Curiosity: When an employee handles a task unexpectedly, a leader should address it immediately with curiosity rather than anger . Asking, "Can you explain your thought process?" keeps lines of communication open and prevents employees from solidifying bad habits . * Delegating Your Business Deficits Early: To successfully build confidence when launching a business, Barbara advises identifying your personal weaknesses immediately . Delegating technical IT security and hiring a bookkeeper early on frees up an owner's mental capacity to excel in their actual zones of genius . Your story deserves more than just a conversation—it deserves impact.

Bradley Sanders - Triumph Roofing

The roofing industry is changing fast, and homeowners are facing higher deductibles, more insurance exclusions, and greater risk when choosing a contractor. On this episode of Growing Your Business with Buddy Broyles, Bradley Sanders of Triumph Roofing shares how his company has built a reputation on trust, education, and quality craftsmanship over 17 years in business. From navigating insurance claims to helping homeowners avoid costly mistakes, Bradley explains why treating people like family has become Triumph Roofing's greatest competitive advantage. https://www.triumphroofing.net/ Key Takeaways * Trust is everything in roofing. With thousands of roofing companies competing in North Texas, Triumph Roofing differentiates itself by treating customers like they matter and serving as their advocate. * Insurance claims are becoming more challenging. Homeowners are seeing deductibles increase from hundreds of dollars to tens of thousands, while coverage continues to shrink. * Most roofing projects are storm-related. Bradley estimates that about 95% of their business comes from hail damage, storms, or leaks discovered after severe weather. * Quality beats cheap every time. Triumph Roofing focuses on complete tear-offs, proper inspections, and long-term solutions rather than cutting corners to offer the lowest price. * Education comes before the sale. Bradley encourages homeowners to seek advice, ask questions, and avoid rushed decisions—even if it doesn't immediately lead to business for his company. * Strong culture creates strong results. Triumph Roofing emphasizes integrity, curiosity, compassion, passion, and family as daily operating values rather than words posted on a wall. * The right crew makes all the difference. Consistency, training, and maintaining long-term crews help ensure quality workmanship and customer satisfaction. Your story deserves more than just a conversation—it deserves impact.

Tilda Tart - Blue Butterfly Writing LLC

What happens when a doctor or a daycare tells you your child is just "acting up," but your parental instinct knows it's something deeper? For author and cognitive tool specialist Tilda Tart, that question became the driving force of her life after her son was removed from multiple daycares and eventually diagnosed with Asperger's at just four years old . On this episode of Growing Your Business with Buddy Broyles, Tilda shares her deeply personal journey of navigating high-functioning autism, fighting for her son's needs, and learning how to decode the hidden sensory struggles of neurodivergent children . She also explains Blue Butterfly Writing LLC's unique approach to supporting special needs families, combining her interactive dual-perspective workbooks with custom, 504-compliant "cognitive tools" designed to help children find their calm in a chaotic world . If you've been searching for resources, answers, or a community that truly understands the special needs journey, this conversation will change your perspective . * Website: Blue Butterfly Writing LLC * Social Media: @TildaTart or @BlueButterflyWriting * Special Offer: Text the code 26786 BBWLLC to receive a free copy of Tilda's newsletter . Key Takeaways * Early diagnosis changes everything. While many high-functioning children aren't diagnosed until their teenage years, catching it at age four allowed Tilda to address her son's needs during his brain's most critical developmental window . * Never ignore your parental intuition. Tilda urges parents to never blindly accept a passive medical opinion or dismiss complex neurological struggles as simple behavioral problems . * Rebranding sensory assets creates accessibility. By replacing the word "toy" with "cognitive tool," Tilda successfully navigated strict school regulations to ensure her son could legally bring calming sensory items into his classroom under IEP and 504 plans . * Workbooks can bridge the communication gap. Blue Butterfly Writing's flagship book, For Little Sunshine, uses a unique side-by-side layout featuring the child's perspective on one page and the mother's perspective alongside medical context on the other . * Intentionality is key for sensory regulation. Tilda advises using specific tactile assets—like her signature glow-in-the-dark push pop ball or noise-canceling headphones—only during high-stress moments to effectively train a child's brain to associate the tool with calming down * Adversity can trigger your true purpose. After being laid off from a demanding 28-year career, Tilda used her sudden transition away from corporate life as the perfect catalyst to write her books and launch her advocacy business full-time .
