Radical Appreciation

Can you imagine the impact you can have in the lives of others by simply creating a culture of radical appreciation in your business -- appreciation to prospective clients for the mere consideration of your services, appreciation to current customers, appreciation to your employees (or contractors), and appreciation to your business partners?

There are many ways to do this.  For example, you can allocate 2-4 hours each month towards phone calls or personal handwritten letters to express appreciation to them and (optionally) bless them with an additional surprise gift. This doesn’t have to cost much, and rest assured that when you involve the Lord in this, all provision for what He leads will be made available to you. 

Truly listen when you’re having conversations with people you encounter in business. Discover what they like, what they dislike, what they need, what they desire. When you listen and observe, you’ll find that conversations will leave clues. Those clues help you to personalize how you express your appreciation in such a manner that the person on the receiving end is moved by your unusual demonstration of love -- it will model how your Father cares about every single detail concerning you.

Pitch

When I sit down with new startup founders, most ask me about one thing: raising money. This is smart of them, because, as I've stated previously, fundraising needs to be one of the core competencies of any young company. Yet for the many high-level conversations I've enjoyed on the subject with young entrepreneurs, rarely do we delve into the kinds of DIY steps they can take to legitimately improve their chances of actually landing an investment. I want to spend some time doing just that on a subject worthy of much more discussion than it generally receives: the pitch deck. If you're a budding entrepreneur who gobbles up broader pontifications on the art of fundraising but find yourself constantly in want of "next steps" advice, this is the column you're going to want to print out and put in your pocket. The reason I want to talk about pitch decks is simple: I see too many that are simply not good. What should be a short, powerful presentation to pique ...
