Romeo Network: Seminars & Coaching

Have you ever started something with great excitement and big dreams, only to lose steam midway? If so, you’re not alone. Many people begin with the best intentions but fail to see their goals through to completion. The difference between dreaming about success and achieving it often lies in your ability to finish what you start. ?? This is the central idea behind the book “Crossing The Finish Line,” which inspires our seminar designed to help you break through barriers and achieve your destiny. ??? Starting a project or goal is exhilarating. There’s vision, energy, and hope. But the middle of the journey can get messy. Challenges arise, distractions pull us away, and sometimes the finish line feels..... ?? #KnowledgeSponge #Business #CustomerService #Excellence #FinishStrong

When Kelly Johnson, the talented photographer behind Kelly Johnson Photography, opened the doors of her new studio in Manheim, PA, in spring of 2022, we were thrilled to be her first clients on that very first morning her studio was open in the new space. Carefully designed to reflect her warm, artistic spirit, Kelly instantly set the stage for a unique experience with a personalized message she had prepared at her studio entrance as we entered. Kelly's skill and eye for detail were immediately evident, especially in the stunning portrait she captured of my wife, Sarah, and me—a photo we’re honored to share with you in this article. Opening a new studio is a bold move in any economy, but doing so amid current economic uncertainty showed incredible courage and foresight on Kelly's part. A Harsh Reality: Is The Risk Worth The Cost? The reality is daunting: half of all new businesses fail within their first five years, and of those that survive, another fifty percent close in the next five. Kelly’s decision to expand her studio was a testament not only to.... [READ MORE] ?? #KnowledgeSponge #Business #CustomerService #Excellence #Photographer

We once worked with a large accounting firm in the south-central Pennsylvania area. ?? For a long time, the service was incredible, the people were friendly, and the work was always done properly. ?? But over time, things began to change. The higher-ups decided that the firm needed to diversify. They targeted large companies — which was understandable. They targeted nonprofits — which made sense too. ?? But then they decided to phase out services for small businesses, and that’s where the issues.....

The best thing about working as a coach is that you meet the most remarkable people. In 2018, one of my season pass holders told me about an associate of hers by the name of Rich Pavlik who had been running his own carpet cleaning business for over 25 years. Ironically, he had been blind since just before he got married. I invited him to come to one of my seminars, and he became a season pass holder as well. In fact, over the next seven years, he took all 101 of my seminars at least once. As Rich and I got better acquainted, I learned a lot about him and his...

Recently in my coaching sessions, I keep hearing people who say they are living in fear, working in fear, or being paralyzed by fear. I’ve also heard that the vast majority of people feel undervalued, insecure, or lost. Remember that the antidote for fear is faith. If you grow in your faith, you will vanquish your fears. Also, the more you focus on serving others, the less time you’ll have to think about... [READ MORE] ?? #KnoelwdgeSponge #FaithOverFear #TakeARisk

"Wowing" Never Goes Out Of Style ?? ?? As a seminar presenter, I always enjoyed using real stories to illustrate my points. However, some of them are so unbelievable that I’m sure there were some seminar attendees who must’ve thought that they were made up. For example, there was a story about a man who drove all the way down from New York to come to Lancaster County for his friend’s seminar. He made it the entire 4 ? hour trip without incident, only to arrive at his destination and learn that his brakes... #KnowledgeSponge #Business #CustomerService #HowtoWow #Excellence

???????? ?????????? ?????????? ?????????????? When it comes to “wowing” your customers, everybody agrees it’s important, but not everybody knows exactly how to do it. While there may not be a one-size-fits-one answer, there are many different ways that you can set out to really impress your clients. For years, I’ve maintained that one of the best definitions of “How to Wow” is demonstrating that you are more concerned that your customers have a great experience doing business with you than they are. I believe this is still accurate today, however, it’s admittedly a bit too conceptual if you’re trying to write it into a procedure manual. ?????? ???????? ???????? ?????? Sometimes it’s easier to understand what something is when you see it. For example... #KnowledgeSponge #Business #CustomerService #HowtoWow #Excellence

The Right Words Matter Many of my coaching clients who sought to improve their sales complained vigorously about not having the right words to entice their prospects. It reminds me of something that the sales manager of a large manufacturing corporation once said to me. He said, “Often, my salespeople show up and throw up.” In other words, they don’t know when to stop talking. There’s a great quote that I heard once that says, “If you can sell them with blah, don’t say blah blah.” #BusinessSeminar #KnowledgeSponge #Sales

Frequently, when I am presenting the Sales Academy, I learn some of my most impactful lessons from participants. One such lesson occurred during my final presentation of the Sales Academy in 2023. ?? Sarah Ellis, of Birth Babes was explaining the value of her service. Sarah wears many hats as a nurse, doula, and business owner. But in her primary role of serving her clients — women about to have babies — she is predominantly an advocate for... [READ MORE] ?? #BusinessSeminar #Business #Doula #Birth #LinkInComments

In today’s digital world, businesses have to evolve to stay competitive. One of the most effective ways to do that is by leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) responsibly, behind the scenes to streamline operations, boost productivity, and make decision-making easier. Whether you’re a small business or large company, AI can be a game-changer by automating tasks, providing valuable insights, and freeing up time for creative or strategic work, aka working ON your business rather than IN your business. Here’s how AI can help streamline your... [READ MORE] ??
