287: Be a Tactical Leader Part II with Zack A Knight

Today's guests: Zack A Knight


Zack’s focus in his life and his business has always been leadership and service. He began his career as a metro-Atlanta police officer then infantry leader in the Army. Since leaving active duty, he has carried those principles into his business life where he continues to help his clients to protect and grow their businesses. Zack began building his first business while in basic training, knowing he wanted

to give more. Over the last 6 years, Zack has used his expertise from his law enforcement and military experience to focus on helping entrepreneurs grow their own businesses through masterminds, coaching, consulting, and podcasting. In his book, The Legacy of Love, Zack tells his story that centers around trauma, healing, and learning. He uses this experience to help his readers know that they

aren't alone and can heal from their own traumas. Our traumas don’t define us, but they can hold us back. Join Zack in discovering how we can use those experiences to learn and grow and become a stronger person who can look in the mirror and confidently say “I LOVE YOU”.

  • 289: Effectively Nurture Leads with Tom Jackobs

    01:02:10
    Today's guests: Tom JackobsTo say Tom has been through a few things in his 30+ years of being an entrepreneur is an understatement. He’s had more failures than successes, but wouldn’t have it any other way. In 2017 he sold his fitness business which he owned for 9 years to become the Impact Pilot, helping entrepreneurs generate more income through better sales conversion strategy and using stories to sell. Tom has a BFA Degree in Theatre from DePaul University in Chicago and holds his private pilot license for single-engine airplanes and is SCUBA certified. He has licenses for Land, Sea and Air, which will come in handy during the apocalypse.Amber's Episode Notes:This interview with Tom was a GREAT reminder on the importance of course correction not only in business, but in life as a whole. I hope you enjoy it!Reminder, you can also watch this and all episodes on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC74Jn9aPKKeUoM_puFyvpgQ/videosThank you for listening!-Amber FuhrimanTweetable Quotes:"Course correction is something many entrepreneurs put off until it's too late for minor adjustments. They delay to a point of making massive changes or giving up." -Amber Fuhriman"Our services are an extension of us, so when we get rejected we tend to take it personally. Focus on the problem that you are solving. You will find your market." -Tom Jackobs"At the beginning of any journey, you have to be honest about where you're starting." -Amber Fuhriman"I've witnessed leads be given... and completely ignored. It feels almost criminal. You have 20 minutes to follow up." -Tom JackobsTom Jackobs:https:/instagram.com/impactpilothttps://businessleadmaximizer.com/mondayIf you are interested in connecting with Amber, send an email to amber@amberfuhriman.com.Connect with other incredible people looking to break out of the corporate mindset by joining the More Than Corporate Facebook group: http://bit.ly/2MuWn53Checkout Amber's Speaker Reel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vPj5OBvjrr0Schedule a connection call with Amber: https://calendly.com/amberfuhriman/connection-call?month=2021-05
