Domenick D’Andrea Coaxes a Reluctant Middle Age-Man (Me!) to Dig in on Social Media to Generate Leads

I’ve long been suspcious that social media can do anything for me. For kids today, yes. For me, a middle aged guy? Hardly. Domenick D’Andrea and I met at a conference and he assured me that if I learn how and when to post and what subject matters people want to see, it will generate profitable business leads. I commit to try it, postng primarily to LinkedIn, to see what will happen. And Domenick says it can’t exclusively be business stuff, it has to be personal, too, like me zipping my suitcase and leaving the hotel room with a very short commentary. Seems crazy. Domenick is convinced. I commit to giving it a try.

Ernesto Perez-Carrillo is the Patriarch of the Celebrated EP Carrillo Cigar Company. And a Stud.

Cigar Aficionado magazine loves EP Carrillo cigars. And they should. The cigars are fantastic. The patriarch of the company is Ernesto Perez-Carrillo. He’s third generation in the business after his (thankfully) failed attempt to become a jazz drummer in New York City as a much younger man. Today he leads the company as they develop new product, supervise the growth of a variety of tobaccos in Central America, train rollers, and market across the world. His son and daughter – both brilliant – are also in the business and he’s grooming them to lead. This year they’re on track to make four million cigars. We talk family business, hurricanes, the youth market, and much more. And you’ll hear me geek out a bit because Mr. Carrillo is a bit of a celebrity to me – so dang cool to get to talk to him.

Check out What Works – my book highlighting the top ten business lessons I learned from the first 200 episodes of the show.

Scot Hunsaker Returns to the Show with a Message: Don’t wait too long…

Scot Hunsaker was on the show last year talking about how to prepare employees to take over once the CEO decided to leave. He has a recipe for the process which we discussed in a very engaging conversation. Scot and his wife then boarded his boat and began a slow ride up the east coast, around Nova Scotia, and down the St Lawrence river. His boat is now in storage near Chicago. He and his wife then flew to New Zealand and then Australia for a six week trip. From Australia, Scott called. “Cam,” he said, “there’s something I need to tell your listeners that I’m learning from this trip. They need to not wait too long before starting their retirement. I’m seeing too many people who are too old and frail to enjoy it the way they dreamed.” Well worth a listen.

Real Estate Update with a Focus on the Second Home Market – Angelo DePaola of The Coastal Connection Realty

Angelo DePaola keeps up with the second home market via his real estate company in Orange Beach, Alabama. Interest rates have changed but there is still a big demand. Home owners are turning over, too. The Boomers who bought vacation homes to bring the kids while they grew up are getting weary of taking care of those homes since the kids and grandkids are visiting less and less. Angelo is a savvy business man who has been very proactive in spreading his name and serving his clients. He’s not the cheapest realtor in Orange Beach but his clients seldom go anywhere else once they’ve used his services.

Richard Jolly – Kellogg School of Business – and I Talk Workplace Culture

Richard Jolly believes that the only true differentiator between competitive businesses in the future will be their culture. Every other competitive advantage can be copied. And what is culture? It’s the way things get done. It’s the “smell of the place.” And so much more. We talk “hurry sickness”, “reciprocity”, manager’s new roles, why culture has become so important post-pandemic, etc. This one’s jam packed with content.
