Listen to this episode because one day you’ll hear or be asked, “Is that a Janak?” and you can say, “I remember her when…!”

This is the first time I’ve shared an entire bio, but I think you’ll enjoy reading about Kathy’s history so here it is, in her own words…

My lifelong passion is jewelry design and metalsmithing. I design and hand‐fabricate women’s jewelry and men’s cuff links from raw silver, often incorporating precious gems or meteorites.

My clients find a distinct and recognizable look in my work and many of them believe it’s a direct influence of my design education and 30‐year career in the architectural profession.

For the last 20 years I’ve been furthering my training through many avenues, but especially with Marilyn Nicholson, a master metalsmith in Taos, New Mexico. Design influences in my work come from the work of silversmiths in Taxco, Mexico (circa 1930), particularly Los Castillo and Hector Aguilar.

I have also studied and been influenced by the work of Louis Cartier (circa 1930) when design shifted away from Art Nouveau and into the Modern Age with a more streamlined look. Both the Taxco and Cartier jewelry artists of this era were masters at geometry, scale, balance and repetition, all of which play a huge part in my own work.

For 20 years I have designed and fabricated my own jewelry. During this time the passion for my art persisted but it wasn’t until about four years ago that all the signs began pointing in the direction of a career change and listening to an inner voice that was too strong to keep suppressing.

By that time, I’d spent close to 30 years in commercial architecture. I had outgrown my lot in the corporate world even though my profession had been well chosen. I no longer felt challenged and I was slowly but surely experiencing brain and soul death. I clearly craved the type of work that fueled my soul – jewelry design and metalsmithing.

The next series of overlapping events finally opened my eyes to the writing on the walls of my heart and changed my life’s direction ‐ ‐ ‐ my father, whom I was extremely close to, died after much suffering for many months; and, I had three major surgeries for separate unrelated health issues.

One by one, each of my health issues were completely resolved. But the one thing that wouldn’t go away was the impact my father’s death had on me. That confronted me with the final mirror: I didn’t want to be on my death bed looking back and asking myself – “what if I had tried to follow my passion?”

So, I left corporate America and started my own company as an independent consultant – right as the economy crashed. It was an extremely high‐risk move but I felt it was the right door out of my corporate years and a step in the direction of truly becoming an entrepreneur and formulating my jewelry business plan.

The best source of encouragement for me all these years was being repeatedly approached by complete strangers who asked me where I got my jewelry and where they could buy it.

This made me realize there was already a demand for my designs and product and I just needed to build a business to meet the demand.

This inspired me to make jewelry for special orders and in enough quantities to hold exclusive trunk shows. All these shows were a success, and I realized I needed to take the next steps to grow my jewelry business.

Jewelry design and fabrication is my passion – I can’t not do it. It’s in me – and it has to get out.

One challenge a lot of entrepreneurs face (myself included) is that we like to build things, hoping people will come to it and love it as much as we do. This is a flawed strategy. It may work in the movies, but not here in the real world.

In this interview, Sandy Hargrave talks quite a bit about pre-selling BEFORE creating. In other words, sell your product or service before you spend any time creating it. That includes books; courses; physical products; hourly or project-based services…EVERYTHING!

If no one will pre-buy at a discount, and I mean, give you real money, then they won’t buy it once it’s created, either. Create what the market wants, not what you think they need.

This is a very eye-opening episode. Hope you enjoy listening to it.

If you have a website or if you’re going to build a website or if you’re just curious about the life of a web designer, check out this interview with Jessica Winkler. She gives us a good look into what it’s like to build websites for clients.

Being a former web developer myself, Jessica and I were able to commiserate about the challenges faced by web designers everywhere. If you’re paying someone to build your website, please listen to this interview. You’ll learn how to improve your experience AND get the website you want in a timely fashion.

Jessica is a true entrepreneur and she encourages others to follow in her footsteps. One thing she said in the interview that really resonated with me was, “It’s easier to find a client than it is to find a job.” She is spot on with that!

Instead of complaining about your job (or lack there-of), start looking for clients and start your own business!

Bob Burg shares some behind-the-scenes stories about how and why he wrote his book, The Go-Giver. If you haven’t read his book yet, you need to. It’s a business parable about the concept of giving in order to get.

One of the most important lessons you can learn from his book and this interview is that it’s ok to receive. Giving doesn’t mean you can’t receive. In fact, receptivity is the 5th law in The Five Laws of Stratospheric Success. Even the 2nd law, The Law of Compensation, talks about receiving.

This is something I battle constantly: I have a hard time receiving. Giving comes natural to me, but receiving is a challenge. I have a tendency to give things away for free, or charge less than something is worth. Bob helped me realize that it’s ok to receive. In fact, it’s part of the natural order of things.

What a fantastic interview! Bob Burg truly IS the Go-Giver!

Are you struggling with marketing and publicity? Randy Valentine from Align Global Marketing can help you get over those hurdles. In this episode, he shares some of his secrets for getting media attention and using that attention to drive customers to your business.

Here’s the basic media outreach task list

  1. Research and find hosts and producers who’ve talked about or interviewed other people in your line of work.
  2. Draft a pitch email referencing some of their other work, and explaining why they should be interested in talking to you.
  3. Send the email to each of your contacts, making sure to customize the message so it’s specific to each contact.
  4. Follow up the next day with a phone call, referencing the email you sent and asking them if they have any questions or would like to book an interview.
  5. Continue to follow up every week or so until you either reach them or they tell you to stop calling.

Here’s the media pitch email format I’m using to do this right now

Hi <name of media contact>,

I’m JP, a web entrepreneur and author.  I just [listened to/watched/read your interview/article with/about <name the guest/topic>] and loved <say what you loved about the interview>.  <Find common ground here- add a sentence about what connects you to the host>

It seems like you interview <describe the type of guest they interview>, so I wanted to reach out and connect because I would love to [come on the show to talk about/be interviewed about] my book, “The Web Startup Roadmap: Navigate Your Way to a Successful Online Business.”

Most web entrepreneurs don’t fully understand the process of starting an online business that can generate a profit and eventually be sold for a profit. I truly believe your audience will get a lot of great content from hearing about my experiences starting and selling a successful online business.

If you’d like a copy of my book, please provide a mailing address and I’ll get your signed copy in the mail asap.

I’m really looking forward to connecting with you!

Thanks! Your time is really appreciated!

That’s when I got my first iPod. CD’s are the new buggy whips, if you’re familiar with that very dated analogy.

Needless to say, Matt’s CD business tanked with the digital download revolution and he was forced to “Do Over,” which is the name of one of his inspiring podcasts. His other podcast is called “Epic Real Estate Investing.” You’ll find the links to those as well as Matt’s website below.

In this podcast episode, Matt shares not only his inspiring comeback story, but the secrets he employs every day to make his new business successful. I hope you enjoy listening to this interview as much as I enjoyed conducting it.

Jessica Rhodes is the guest du jour. She’s a very industrious entrepreneur who spends most of her time helping other entrepreneurs build more efficient and effective businesses.

One thing I really admire about Jessica is that she started her business shortly after her child was born. She made the conscious decision to quit her job and start her own business so she could spend more time with her baby and family. Even though giving up reliable income from her job was a challenge, she says her “why” for doing it far out-weighed the risk of doing it. Jessica says if your “why” is big enough, you’ll figure out how to do it.

If you think it’s impossible to start a business with young children or a family, Jessica is proof that it is possible. Listen to this podcast episode and be inspired to find a “why” that’s bigger than your fears.

In 2000, Jim Palmer lost his job, was unemployed for a year, survived cancer (and his teenage kids), and started a successful business. Even though his first year was “revenue-free,” as he calls it, he eventually managed to get his first few clients, which helped him launch a successful business.

Jim is best known as “The Newsletter Guru,” but he does all sorts of things now. One of his passions is helping other people launch their own successful businesses. In fact, I’m planning to attend his next “Create Your Dream Business Now Academy” in March in Las Vegas. If you’d like to join me, there are still a few seats available (as of this posting). Check out his website at StopWaitingAcademy.com.

This episode is not only inspirational, but highly informational, as well. Hope you enjoy listening to it!
