| 11 Apr 2023 | Ep#277 Courtney Folk: Key Takeaways for Growth in the Fashion Industry | 00:25:13 | |
Renewal Logistics is a family founded and operated company launched by Courtney Folk Co-Founder and CEO together with her husband Bryan, whose title is President. It originated from their family’s small dry-cleaning business and pivoted to ultimately become the largest independent apparel disaster restoration services business in the US. After pivoting to disaster restoration, the company was approached by a major fashion brand for help with damage incurred in transit for some of the key SKUs of their then-current season. Renewal excelled at bringing relief to this situation and provided not only value added services but fulfillment services as well. Renewal saved the company over $12M in losses and prevented a lost relationship that was worth over $100M per year that was in jeopardy due to this situation, by re-working goods that were not in sellable condition. This was accomplished in under 2 weeks and included value added services as well as fulfillment. There was no other company in the US or the world that was able to accomplish this within this timeline, which is why they were awarded the project. When they executed this project with 100% satisfaction, and completed it 2 days early, they were then approached by a company to be their dedicated 3PL partner. The company was then approached by top 3 global apparel brands to become their dedicated 3PL and returns center, and the business as it is now was launched in earnest. Courtney has expanded the 3PL business to become the only fully integrated solution for apparel companies in the US, providing not only wholesale, retail, and ecommerce fulfillment, but also Value Added Services such as wholesale order prep, Amazon FBA prep, and reticketing, as well as full scale returns refurbishment via their 85,000 sq. ft. dry-cleaning facility in Atlanta Georgia. They currently operate 3 locations in the Southeast, totaling 200,000 square feet, and have a bench of 2500 workers. Ways to Connect with Courtney:

Brian Gerstner, President of White Label IQ, has been at the forefront of digital resource innovation for over a decade. His organization is built on the premise that modern-day advertising and marketing companies need more streamlined methods to deliver their projects quickly and effectively. White Label IQ provides solutions for efficiently managing these services, offering an organized platform for content management, creating user accounts and integrations with existing systems. He advised that finding your focus is essential to gaining a competitive edge and enabling scalable growth initiatives. Without it, assessing the market can be drawn-out and inefficient, resulting in missed opportunities. With that renewed understanding of your target audience and how to serve them better, you can then reinvest resources back into scaling the business. Crafting strategies around that focus is the first step toward achieving success. Brian also believed that many business owners get stuck trying to do too much at once, namely getting caught up in the details of execution. This can detrimentally impede growth and often prevent them from realizing their intended vision for the company. To help combat this challenge and unlock their goals, leveraging an EOS program may be the key to success. This program can help provide clarity of roles for those in charge by creating distinct lines and lanes between vision setting and tangible execution. Brian advised leaders to consider They have to stay in a position where there is gonna be anxiety; there is gonna be [dis]comfort. Just get used to it.

| 02 May 2023 | Ep#286 Andrew Jernigan:How to Get Protected and Covered While Being a Nomad | 00:22:45 | |
As CEO of Insured Nomads, disrupting the way insurance is delivered, Andrew Jernigan stands dead center at the intersection of insurance and travel safety innovation, building a delivery model for travel and global health insurance that will serve as the standard for the future of insurtech/fintech/traveltech. Passionate about protecting people around the world, Andrew is hyper- focused on building a new insurance model, so travelers, expats and digital nomads can explore the world freely and work within it with increased well being and peace of mind. Andrew’s extensive experience in the healthcare, insurance and banking industries locally, regionally and globally, and his early adoption of expatriate/nomadic life, has provided him with the unique experiences and perspective to break boundaries through the merging of technology with humanity. Having volunteered, traveled and lived on several continents, he learned first-hand that insurance had to evolve to provide relevant, trustworthy, and intuitive, person-centered services that world travelers and remote workers needed as remote work increasingly became normalized and expected. Andrew is a graduate of Samford University in Birmingham, Alabama, and currently working on a Master in Big Data & Business Intelligence from European Business School of Barcelona, married to co-founder Juliana Jernigan, of which they share three young adults. In addition to serving as CEO, Andrew is also a Strategic Advisor for Mobility Empowered, Shap, and Share Hope International, and co-host of the popular podcast, The New Nomad.

| 30 May 2023 | Ep#298 John Crestani: Influencer Marketing 101 for Businesses of ANY Size | 00:34:56 | |
John Crestani is a renowned influencer and entrepreneur who has gained recognition in affiliate marketing and online business. Growing up in Los Angeles, he thirsted for knowledge and a passion for exploring new places. While pursuing his college education, Crestani became disillusioned with the lack of practical application for his acquired knowledge and felt anxious about achieving success in the expensive city. After working at a marketing agency for two years, he realized he needed to control his destiny to reach his life and financial goals. So, in 2012, he embarked on his entrepreneurial journey, establishing his own business to live a low-stress life, earn millions of dollars annually, and travel the world. Remarkably, Crestani has surpassed these goals since 2014, consistently making seven figures yearly, all while running a solo operation without any employees. Presently residing in Malibu with his two daughters, he enjoys flying helicopters, gardening, camping, and reading science-fiction literature. With a focus on affiliate marketing, influencer marketing, and software development, Crestani shares his expertise through his online channel, where he imparts knowledge and insights to empower aspiring entrepreneurs. Additionally, he founded Advancepay.io, a startup in the software development industry, in March 2022. Before that, Crestani served as an affiliate marketer at Pendragon Labs Marketing since January 2017. From September 2012 to December 2016, he was the Director of E-commerce/SEM Analyst at Results Driven Marketing LLC. Earlier in his career, he gained experience in National Positions from July 2010 to September 2012. Crestani's academic qualifications include a BS in Business from Southern Methodist University - Cox School of Business (2006-2008) and a BS in Marketing from California State University, Northridge (2008-2010).

Under his direction, the company has become well known for the innovative solutions it offers its Manhattan-based clients and customers from a variety of industries.

However, in order to be successful, you must believe in yourself and your idea wholeheartedly. Dave also believed that the creative journey is filled with peaks and valleys, some of which can be discouraging. We often find ourselves in what many refer to as the Valley of Disappointment as we witness our projects come nearer to completion. As the reality of a project sets in, doubts may arise - will it actually work? It's important to remember that things do not typically happen overnight and there is a natural process at work that requires time. Staying resilient throughout this creative process can help stave off feelings of disappointment and provide fuel for your vision until it comes to fruition. Dave advised leaders to consider you … have to be humble to be able to … take feedback and make the changes that you need to make in order to scale it.

But eventually,.. you'll hit, and it'll pay off. Big time. So you just have to keep going, and it's not for everyone, but it's; definitely, it's rewarding."

| 09 Feb 2023 | Ep#259 RJ White: The Business that Keeps on Ballin | 00:21:56 | |
#259 RJWhite, the owner of the @VipersProBasketball located in Lake County, Illinois. When she first took over the team, there wasn't anyone in the audience-- literally. The only sound was the wheatgrass blowing across the gym space. But with dedication and some creative thinking, he was able to bring in over 3,500 people and reach fire code. She advised that "to have a basketball league that focused on both connecting the community and highlighting their players' talents, she had to figure out how her team could gain influence in the area. With the use of market research, you can understand what would make the most impact on this particular crowd. Knowing the dynamics of people in the local community was also important in order for her team to stand out and be successful." RJ also believed that "as a business owner, it is essential to nurture your business in the same way you would a child. Having a business is like parenting: there will be highs and lows along the way, but watching it grow and evolve and having those conversations are part of what makes the journey so rewarding. Similar to raising kids, running a successful business requires parental care and dedication; any hiccups or disagreements along the road are natural, but keeping motivated to push forward is key to both endeavors." RJ advised leaders to "consider, there's no way that you're gonna have something and you don't have a love for it." According to RJ, #BrittneyGriner is someone who she thinks is an amazing leader in her circle of relationships and exemplifies the advice he gives in the interview.

Sergio Schirmer Almenara Ribeiro is a leader in the field of healthcare technology. As CEO and founder of Radiolife, he has developed a groundbreaking platform that is revolutionizing healthcare outcomes through a combination of radiofrequency signatures and artificial intelligence diagnostic tests. Radiofrequency-based technology — which has already been employed in procedures like imaging, radiotherapy, and cancer target treatment — ensures accuracy and efficacy when it comes to obtaining results from these tests. He advised that finding the ability to innovate and create something is a skill many of us strive for. But even more rewarding is the potential that what we create can have to make a significant positive difference in someone’s life. Sergio also believed that regardless of the speed of the company’s growth, it's essential to maintain the utmost level of quality of your products, as well as preserve the integrity and values that make up your team culture. Sergio also advised leaders to consider that “it's a huge point when you're not aligned when you got people on your team who are not aligned with your mission, the vision, the values of the company, it is awfully hard. You can hire the best of the best, but when they don't align, everybody feels uncomfortable.” If you happen to have any questions about how Radiolife can help you, reach Sergio at https://www.linkedin.com/in/sergiosaribeiro/ or Radiolife at https://radiolife.co/en/ You can also take part in their early success by investing in their crowdfunding site https://wefunder.com/sergioribeiro I highly suggest you watch this entire exchange between Sergio and ⭐️ Todd Westra 📈 Full show notes 👉 https://thegaspodcast.com/episodes/b/sergio-schirmer-ribeiro Please like, share and subscribe to Growth and Scaling Podcast #Gaspodcast #Withmoku #Toddwestra #SergioRibeiro #RadioLife #businessgrowth | |||
