Welcome to Episode 43 of Building My Legacy.

This is the second podcast in which we look at how businesses and employees will need to change after the COVID-19 pandemic. We’re talking with Chad Peterson, an expert business broker, author and the founder of Peterson Acquisitions. In this podcast Chad shares his thoughts about the workplace of the future and the changing role of face-to-face interactions, which have been such a significant part of the sales process in the past.

Chad describes business as “a contact sport,” but he acknowledges that online interactions have already replaced face-to-face selling in many industries. As we get through the COVID-19 crisis, Chad believes that we have to do business differently as video becomes more and more important for nearly every company.

So if you want to know:

• How to really connect with people digitally
• The continuing importance – and challenges – of establishing trust when your customers can only see you on a screen
• How businesses are likely to invest their money after the pandemic
• Why it’s more important than ever for your business to have a real “team” culture
