ARE YOU CAUSING THE GREATEST FAILURE IN BUSINESS TODAY?

In the television and event world, it’s one of the most common causes of technology failure, and we call it the air gap.

Simply put, it’s when something isn’t plugged in and powered.

IT’S EASY TO DETECT IN TECH!

If your technology has an air gap because it is not plugged in, it just doesn’t work.

IT’S HARDER TO DETECT IN BUSINESS!

If your people are not plugged in and empowered, it can be difficult to diagnose because people can appear to function, but just not function well.

THE DIAGNOSIS:
GET YOUR PEOPLE PLUGGED IN TO…

❤️ The Purpose
❤️ The Vision
❤️ The Missions
❤️ The Clients
❤️ The Message
❤️ The Brand
❤️ The Role
❤️ The Culture
❤️ and EACH OTHER!

The air gap in business can keep people, disconnected, isolated, alone, and ultimately dissatisfied and dysfunctional.

And usually, it’s not the employees fault.

IT’S THE FAULT OF LEADERSHIP.

So before you curse the air gap, evaluate how you can get people plugged in, empowered, and especially connected with each other.

Now get ready to watch the power flow!

I believe in you!

With much love – Bill❤️

YOU ARE A VICTIM…!

of where you focus.

It’s simple psychology.

We all find what we are looking for because we are constantly in the pursuit of validating what we feel and believe.

If you have a growth mindset and believe life is filled with hope, opportunity, and you have the capacity to rise above the obstacles to accomplish great things… guess what happens?

YOU WILL ACCOMPLISH GREAT THINGS.

But if you have slid into a victim mindset filled with fear, doubt, and you believe you will be unjustly judged, accused, and disrespected… guess what happens?

YOU WILL STRUGGLE IN THE VICTIM SPIRAL.

Of course, changing our mindset is not a switch that we just flip on and off.

How we think, and our outlook on our own life has been a product of layers of experiences and filters that can distort realty.

That’s why it becomes a deliberate decision we must make every day.

Buy into the victim mindset and repeat the lies and echoes of doubt that are robbing us from real joy and fulfillment…

Or, make a bold decision to:

❤️ Count our blessings,

❤️ Embrace gratefulness,

❤️ Guard against the pit of depressive darkness that wants to suffocate you,

❤️ Get help if you have been living this cycle for months or more!

You really are a mighty warrior!

You are here for a powerful purpose!

I believe in you!

With much love – Bill ❤️

DO YOU KNOW WHAT IT TAKES TO CREATE AN UNFORGETTABLE EVENT?

The art of storytelling in events isn’t just about sharing information – it’s about crafting an unforgettable journey that builds toward a crescendo, a moment of impact that resonates long after the lights go down.

In my work, I’ve seen that every great event has a storyline that unfolds with intention, capturing hearts, and inspiring action.

Here are 3 steps to elevate your storytelling and create that powerful crescendo:

🎬 Define the Emotional Arc

Map out the journey you want attendees to experience. Think about the highs, the lows, and that ultimate high point. This arc creates emotional engagement and gives your event a sense of purpose.

🎬 Build Anticipation

Use pacing, visuals, and sound to draw people in gradually. Each segment should lead naturally to the next, creating suspense and a sense of momentum.

🎬 Deliver the Payoff

Your crescendo is the moment of greatest impact. Plan a powerful visual, story, or moment that embodies your message and gives the audience something to hold onto. This is where the energy peaks and leaves a lasting impression.

When your event crescendos just right, it elevates the experience from a gathering to a transformative memory.

I believe in you!

(Part 2)

IN MATTER OF FIVE SECONDS, HE POKED ME IN THE CHEST, AND I “HELPED” HIM TO THE GROUND.

🎬 was it because I was abused as a child?

🎬 was it because I was emotionally exhausted?

🎬 was it because he did just the right thing to trigger me?

🎬 was it because deep in my heart, it was time for me to move on?

🎬 was there something going on with him?

The answer is probably all of this.

And I should’ve seen it coming, but I had become a master at stuffing my emotions.

I WALED OUT THE NEXT DAY WITH MY LAST CHECK AS AN EMPLOYEE.

AND IT WAS ONE OF THE BEST THINGS THAT COULD HAVE EVER HAPPENED TO ME.

There’s so much more as I have been living that story and learning from the lessons of my failures and my successes.

Each cracked and pristine memory has been a building block to who I am today.

HAVE YOU DEEPLY REFLECTED, LEARNED, and even celebrated the building blocks of your life.

I truly believe you’re here to do something miraculous and powerful and it’s my honor to encourage you and support you on this journey.

Your failures and my failures are part part of the past, but the lessons and the wisdom we have learned is a core part of who we are and who we are becoming.

I believe in you!

With much love – Bill❤️

I WAS FIRED FROM A 12-YEAR CAREER!

I’ll never forget that morning.

I was directing the morning program that required me to get in around 4:30am.

⁃ my wife had just given birth to twins (our third and fourth child)
⁃ My grandfather was dying
⁃ Our home felt like a wild jungle episode out of National Geographic with a lot of chaos
⁃ My wife and I were both emotionally and physically exhausted.

When we are hurting, it’s easy to forget that a lot of people around you are also hurting.

That was the case for a writer on our MORNING NEWS show.

All I knew was that he was good at his job, but was often very irritable….

That’s the morning his irritable met my exhausted.

WE WERE IN THE MIDDLE OF A LIVE SHOW, when he suddenly decided to throw disrespectful remarks my way.

Tension was building as everybody thought “YOU CAN’T TALK THAT WAY TO THE DIRECTOR!”

I waited till the commercial break (I was still directing a flawless live show) for me to stand up and ask him what he said.

If there was a videotape of the session, it would be in a manual about how to NOT de-escalate a situation.

IN MATTER OF FIVE SECONDS, HE POKED ME IN THE CHEST, AND I “HELPED” HIM TO THE GROUND.

IF YOU’RE GOOD AT YOUR CRAFT TODAY…THAT’S NOT GOOD ENOUGH TOMORROW.

In my world of television and corporate marketing, we are often inspired by the words of Steve Martin.

“Be so good, the world can’t ignore you.”

The critical distinction here is that it’s not just about getting attention, it’s being:

SO GOOD THAT YOU RISE TO YOUR UNIQUE PLACE OF GIFTING, AUTHORITY AND GENUINE IMPACT.

So I encourage you to commit to profound personal and professional growth with:

🎬 Excellence

🎬 Dedication

🎬 Persistence

🎬 Consistence

🎬 Transformation

Every day we practice our craft, we get better, but every day we are stretched at our craft, we become masterful.

❤️ You were born for nothing less.❤️

I believe in you!

With much love – Bill ❤️

QUIT HANGING AROUND LIKE-MINDED PEOPLE…

…IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN STRETCHING AND GROWING.

When we are hurting or seeking validation, being around like-minded, people can bring a sense of security, connection, and assurance.

That’s not completely a bad thing.

The real danger lies in being seduced by the warm safety of our comfort zone.

This is where the like-minded people seek comfort over character, producing monotony over movements, and are more interested in changing the channel than changing the world.

Find a community that stretches you, challenges you, mentors you, and tells you what you need to hear… not just something that is meant to sell you more.

You were born for greatness.

Re-discover the passion that stirs your brand soul and step boldly into the courageous unknown that contains your greatest destiny.

I believe in YOU!

With much love- Bill❤️

IS YOUR BRAND STORY BURIED, BUSTED OR A BLOCKBUSTER?

With decades in the television, entertainment, and marketing business, I know building a brand empire is hard!

And while you can never guarantee success, there are powerful ingredients we can count on to make blockbusters.

1. STAND UP- most brand stories never make it to prime time because they are never birthed. They live in the ideation phase and never make it to production where at least you can test a concept and market.
2. STORY- leverage the power of the story arc to take your audience on a journey (DM me if you need to discover YOUR STORY ARC).
3. LOVE- your audience needs to feel passion for the character, characters or storyline. If there is no heart connection, you might as well email them a PowerPoint.
4. RESOLUTION- the story arc will take you from sunrise to sunset and your audience must be able to take a breath of resolve and emotion.*

*the emotion your audience feels should be an extension of your brand personality. If you know what that is, you can now Live and express that in your story.

YOUR BRAND STORY can be a classic.

YOUR BRAND STORY can be your legacy.

Are you ready to craft a brand story that captures hearts and makes a lasting impact?

Let me know if you need help.

I believe in you!

With much love- Bill❤️
