Merry Christmas!  I hope you are having a great holiday with your family and friends.  Not only that, I hope you are beginning to reflect and look back on 2019 as you are planning for 2020!  It’s really hard to look forward without first looking backward. We need to assess what we liked, what we didn’t like, what we want more of, and what we want less of. Reflecting has been a huge part of my goal-setting process, and you will see why today! This is going to be a really great episode because I am committed to being honest and transparent and showing what worked, what didn’t and what new things I will be doing in 2020. (And the reasoning behind it). Here are a few highlights you won’t want to miss:  "There's a lot of nervousness

She is the author of the book “Is Your Business Worth Saving?” where she reveals proven strategies for pulling entrepreneurs out of a rut and launching them toward business success. Welcome back to another episode of the Foot Traffic podcast!! I have so many small business owners who come to me and say negative things like, “My team is just not performing!” or “My team is not bringing value the way I know they should.”  And more often than not, I have to be brutally honest and tell them I need them to change before they can even think to see their team change. I let them know there are several things I need them to do to start showing up and really be the leader that they need to be. There’s this phrase that says, “If a flower doesn’t bloom it’s not the flower’s fault, it’s the environment.” Now, disclaimer: Yes, there will be a few times when someone slips through the cracks and you hired the wrong person

Welcome back to another episode of the Foot Traffic podcast!! We all know that person….  The person who says they are going to do something, but never actually follows through with it.   Whether it's the friend that just started another new diet and says this is going to be the one she sticks to…   Or the cousin that is talking about starting that new business but still hasn’t… Or maybe your brother who has a plan to get out of debt this year but just bought a brand new boat.  We all know those types of people, and to be honest, at times this can be us too if we aren’t careful. I know you set big goals for yourself and your business in 2020, but now I have to ask…   How are you holding yourself accountable to reaching those goa

Welcome back to another episode of the Foot Traffic podcast!! There are a few places where I feel special, dare I say even “famous”.  They aren’t places you would expect.  One being Office Depot.  I walk in, wait in line at the print department and the employee says, “Stacy, I will be right with you.”  The people in front of me look back to check out who I am and then look forward completely unphased.  Office Depot doesn’t know me as a Small Business Guru or the Wisconsin Small Business Person of the Year.  Nope.  They know me as someone who prints stuff.  A lot. At Office Depot.  Now I don’t go in as much because my team does but I bet they feel the exact same way.  When the Office Depot brand reached out to see if I would lik
