You know, How to Hire and Keep Great People
Over the course of my career, I've made over 200 individual hiring decisions at my own companies, spent millions on paychecks, benefits, and withholding taxes, and once made payroll for 728 consecutive weeks.
I've also helped other companies in a variety of industries achieve dramatically better hiring results for a wide range of skilled positions.
And, at a few points in my career, I've sat on the other side of the interview table as a job applicant, watching a manager or business owner completely blow the interview, causing me to decide to seek employment elsewhere.
I’ve put all of that experience into a system for hiring and keeping great people, and brought it to you in this course.
This system will work for you, even if:
You’re hiring your first employee ever
You think your company is too small, too new or too whatever for anybody to want to work for
The job you’re offering is part-time or low pay
You don’t offer health benefits or paid time off
You’ve had nothing but terrible hiring results in the past
You don’t know how to write a job description
No one seems to respond to the employment ads you post
You don’t know what to say when interviewing candidates
In addition to the video content, every lesson is also provided in audio format for you to download and listen to while you're exercising or in the car.
You also receive a number of bonuses, including:
An optimized job description you can download and edit
An over-the-shoulder view of me quickly sorting through a large number of online responses and narrowing them down to the handful of people I want to talk to on the phone.
A great employment ad you can customize and post anywhere
And, my secret weapon 10-question general knowledge test that I spring on applicants right at the end of our initial telephone call.
I can’t tell you how many people revealed their true personality to me after taking that short test

Instructor
My 40+ years of entrepreneurial experience have run the gamut from home-based and storefront businesses through nationwide seminar production and international newsletter publishing, to the founding of a tech start-up where I raised over $3 million in seed and early-stage venture capital and shepherded the firm to publicly-traded status.
Along the way, I have helped hundreds of companies better understand and communicate their marketing messages to their markets. From the smallest business to multinational behemoths, my advice and insight have been sought out across the country and around the world.
I have presented at The Kennedy Center as well as at the headquarters and boardrooms of Texas Instruments, America Online, Warburg Pincus, The Gartner Group, Heidelberg North America, Draper Atlantic, Friedman Billings Ramsey, and before thousands of business executives, salespeople, and business owners at conferences produced by groups like the Printing Industries of America, Xplor International, The Graphic Arts Technical Foundation and the National Investment Bankers Association.
