We’re super excited about the format for this special 500th episode of Stay Paid. Borrowing from the popular Hot Ones show, we answer questions from our listeners and a few from our employees while eating hot wings. The hotter the wings get, the harder it is for us to keep our cool and make it through! But the struggle is worth it because we’ve some great questions that deserve equally great answers. Listen to find out the most overlooked marketing tactic that will radically elevate your brand, how we respond to a former guest who wants to know which strategy is really the best for building a brand, and our advice for winning over referral partners when you’re new to the business and haven’t yet built a reputation. Plus, we’ve got a major announcement you won’t want to miss. It’s about a seismic shift that’s going to bring even more value to our listeners. This is big!
