Monte Criswell Writes The Songs the Nashville Artists Love to Record

Monte Criswell is a songwriter. A big time, bad-a$$ songwriter. 200 of his songs have been recorded by Nashville artists and he’s had several number 1 hits and a few Grammy nominations. His passion from a young age was to be in music. From the University of Alabama (and St Paul’s Episcopal School in Mobile, Alabame before that) he declined a law school enrollment at Syracuse and went to Nashville where he hustled and slept in his car looking for a break. Today’s he’s a known name in the country music scene, having written for George Strait, Darius Rucker, Trace Adkins, Morgan Wallen, and many many more. 

On this episode of What’s Working we discuss the music business from the point of view of a songwriter.

Doug Ankersen’s Isle Dauphine Oysters Feature the Waters in Which They’re Raised, Lots of Hard Work, and Doug’s Engineering Sensibilities

The Isle Dauphine Oyster Company was born out of Doug’s passion for process, the coastal waters, and Doug’s fondness for oysters. A trained engineer, Doug has now created a predictable product that’s ready for the big time. That’s a part of his pitch when he enters restaurants in Nashville, Birmingham, Atlanta, and New Orleans – they can count on his oysters tasting good all the time and always being available. He’s not worried about storms, about too much fresh water, about any of the variables that smaller, less sophisticated farmed oysters companies struggle with. Doug is now spreading the word and one of the markets he’s targeting the most right now is his own home town of Mobile, Alabama where about a dozen farmed oyster companies operate yet, strangely, few restaurants offer them on the menu.

New Rules of Real Estate – the Nat’s Assn of Realtors Settlement featuring realtor Angelo DePaola

The National Association of Realtors changed home buying rules and they’ve been in effect about a month. Home buyers will now have a new conversation with their realtor when they go to buy a home. The realtor will need to negotiate a fee with the buyer. Previously it was in the background as the deal went forward with a typical 6% commission split between buyer’s agent and seller’s agent. Now, that’s all changed and is highly negotiable. 

Angelo DePaola has seen this coming. It’s no surprise. He thinks it will make the best realtors stand out even more and the “hobbiest” realtors who sell homes as a side-hustle slowly go away. We discuss how he now has to give extra effort at defining his value to home buyers and what it means for realtors going forward.

The Use of Questions as a Fantastic Leadership Skill with Bob Tiede

Ron Holt of Pink Zebra Moving – Upending the Tired and Stale Moving Business

The business of moving and movers. Pretty tried and true. Very little room for disruption, right? Wrong. Ron Holt has upended tradtional businesses before and is doing it again. His first was Two Maids where he based the payment of the service providers on the evaluations of the customers. The result? Huge efforts from the cleaners to please the customer and treat them well. He’s taking this same non-tradtional thinking to Pink Zebra moving. The movers play music. They buy the homeowner dinner. They have a great time. It’s about reimagining the stale and throwing some energy and ideas into it.

The Business of Weather with Rob Lightbrown

With all the free weather apps avaialble, why pay for a forecast? Because Crown Weather offers something a bit more, a bit personal. Rob Lightbrown offers a subscription only weather forecast that gets into the weeds of the weather. I was referred to him by a retired banker who used Rob’s service to help his agricultural clients try to prepare for the storms that may destroy their crops. I spoke to Rob a few weeks ago where he predicted that by late July and early August there would likely be some tropical storm activity forming. And, as I write this today, right on cue, there is prediction of a storm in the Atlantic to arrive around August first. Rob offers something additional to his subscribers, too. Want a weather prediction for your picnic? Your outdoor wedding reception? Your high school football game? He’ll gladly reply to your request with your own personal weather forecast for your event. Pretty cool.
