We all know and have met the marketing, salesperson type of person whose conversation just sounds sales-y. None of us want to sound like that when trying to inform people of our products or services.

Spirituality is the hidden talk that’s involved in so many of my client conversations that I thought it worth sharing on this blog. Spirituality, morals, values, and integrity are all the core and driving force behind branding, cash flow, customer service, and employees. These are fundamental parts of every human and as a small business owner, they run deep and affect all aspects of your business.

This week on the Ask Christina First Radio show I discuss something that is different from the norm of small business, but deeply involved in the topic. Spirituality, your integrity, values, and morals run deep and affect all aspects of your business. This will be the first part of an ongoing conversation and I invite you to tune it.

Small business and real estate are one in the same; good project management. This week I spoke with one of my favorite real estate colleagues, Bruce Norris of the Norris Group, a California real estate investment group. The Norris group has flipped over 4,000 homes and they do hard money loans where they loan money out to flippers and most importantly, Bruce and his group make communities better.

The basic topic of time management is really a conversation about tasks, not time. What tasks are you involved with? What tasks do you and your business need to get done? Tasks is part of time management as well as the systemic systems that move your business forwards. Time management affects leadership and employee management skills.

This week on the Ask Christina Radio Show I will be discussing time management as it pertains to task delegation. Time management is part of the systems within your business that make your business move forward and as the leader of your business, your employee management skills must include being able to delegate tasks and manage your time.

As a host of a radio show on the Amazing Women of Power Network, I often attend the AWOP conferences. During my last conference I was interviewed on what my favorite topic of discussion, the 3 core elements of leadership. As a small business management consultant people ask me often about leadership, "How do I deal with an employee", "How do I deal with branding and marketing?", etc.
