Welcome to Episode 192 of Building My Legacy.

In this podcast serial entrepreneur and best-selling author Carl Gould shares with us how he uses his own entrepreneurial experience to help business owners who want to grow their companies or expand personally as a leader. As a business coach, Carl has been told that he’s a “time machine” that can show you what the future could look like and how to get there. It’s then up to you to decide what you want your life to be about. As you build your legacy, Carl offers practical advice for every step of the way. In fact, the last stage in Carl’s seven stages of business success is the “succession stage” in which a legacy business is born.

So if you want to know:

• The advantage of looking beyond your own industry for innovations
• Why Internet marketing can look like a “colony of penguins”
• The one new page you should add to your company website
• Why you should consider increasing your prices
• The deadliest mistakes people make when launching a business
• The asset to being successful that’s even more important than resilience
