Did you get a chance to watch Ryan Barrett’s interview on “What Businesses Need to Know Right Now” earlier this week? He really drove home the importance of protecting your company and your data from a cyberattack – because as he said, “It’s not about if you will get hacked; it’s when you will get hacked.” And you may be thinking, I’m not quite to the stage in my business where I need to worry about that…but you probably are. Because it’s never too

A few weeks ago, I shared with you the Productive Profits System and encouraged you to take 5 minutes and watch the first video in the series (Video #1 talks about what’s holding you back from your next 6-figure income stream) – and let me know your thoughts. I have to say I loved the emails I received after some of you had watched the first video! I could feel your excitement! Video #2 in the Productive Profits System is all about leveraging your

Ryan Barrett has spent the majority of his career consulting with organizations where data is critical to their business. He’s seen technologies evolve into one of the most critical components to ensure a viable and scalable operation.

I’m not quite sure where this is going. What was the point? I want to invite

How’s it going so far? Are you making strides towards those goals you set for 2021? I know you are because I’ve heard from many of you – and the progress is incredible. And while you’ve been putting your plans into motion and reaching for those goals, I’ve got to ask – How are YOU doing? How’s your health? I ask because high-achievers and over-achievers have a tendency to go all-in – and sometimes things not related to the current

How long do you think things are going to take to go back to normal for doctors’ practices? The most important thing to understand right now is that this pandemic has acted as a catalyst. We’re going to look back at this, and we’re going to remember how things were before COVID and after COVID. And there’s going to be a very clear distinction between the before and the after. I don’t think we’re ever going back to “normal.” We

When you need help with your air conditioning – who do you call? You’ll call the HVAC expert – of course! Because you know that you have no business messing around with the air conditioning in your home – at least you don’t if you want some relief from the heat.

What led you to create your business Defy The Status Quo – and why defiant? It’s never been my style to just get in line. I had been working as a freelance writer. One day I said to myself, “You know what – there’s more to this. There’s more to me, and there’s a brand here.” I brainstormed a lot of different names, but one of the things that really hit me was that I specialize in working with B2B
