Hey  Dale Pease ! I'd agree here - it sounds like HubSpot would be a great fit for capturing new leads and guiding/educating (and of course tracking) them through the sales process, then connect HubSpot to your current CRM for all of the operational stuff.

I know this wasn't a "typical summer" but I'm curious to see how many leaders we have in here that took some time off this summer. Now that September has just started, I want to know who is geared up to take their business to that next level!Is that you? If it is, I'd love to hear why....it's time to brag, so go all out in the comments!

We have been in business for over 25 years, and have 50 franchises across the country. The problem, frankly, is out of those 50 franchises, only a handful are operating where they should be. We are working on that (using a lot of what I am learning here.) But, we are starting to think about selling more franchises again (we pretty much stopped selling locations 10-15 years ago.) But, one of the big things we want to do is learn how to find better buyers. In the past it was pretty much, if they write us a check, then we'll sell to them.Our franchises are a great business to own, with a fairly low cost of entry, low overhead, and significant revenue possibilities, but most of our owners just aren't really that motivated to grow. What strategies do you all have to find the right buyers? The types of folks who really want to (and will) work hard to grow their business. Does anyone know of someone doing seminars/training on how to find buyers? To teach us better ways to get the right people excited about joining the team.Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi, we are planning to change our domain name: takeoffpr.com. We started as a PR Agency, but since 7 years we are a pure Inbound Agency. We think of takeoffinbound.com. A bit long but nothing else is available.What has been the experience of Impact to switch from impactbnd to impactplus. On ahrefs I see quite  drop in traffic, but ahrefs is not always right ;)What would you do?Martin

I've been hearing about a lot of businesses that once things start to open up post-pandemic, are transitioning their business to fully-remote permanently or a hybrid working model.What are you doing?Right now our plan is to bring everyone back over the summer and re-evaluate a hybrid model for the fall. Would love to hear what you all are doing!
