I was in business for 18 years and can humbly admit to a modicum of success in business. If you are in business -- especially small business -- you owe it to yourself to check out "Legends of Success With John Resnick." The link will take you to the Legends of Success website, but actually the heart of Mr. Resnick's endeavor is a weekly radio show which consists of John Resnick interviewing the most remarkable entrepreneurs on the planet.
Jack Welch, Legendary CEO of General Electric, is one of Mr. Resnick's more high-powered and frequent guests. Welch and his wife Suzy are pictured above with John Resnick in the Welch home in Boston prior to Jack's recent appearance on Legends Of Success.
Resnick's recent interview with David Oreck, Founder and Chairman of the Oreck Corporation was also fantastic. Oreck started with little more with an idea and chutzpah. His story is remarkable.
Did you ever wonder how a huge internet company like PETCO got its start, or how an entrepreneur with moxie and foresight turned a bicycle messenger service into the venerable giant, UPS, or how an accountant turned his small business into the payroll giant Paychex, Inc.? You'll find out by listening to Legends of Success.
I bet you didn't know that Dick Van Patten, the TV actor famous for his role as Tom Bradford on "Eight is Enough," is a dynamic and inventive founder of a fast-growing company called: Natural Balance Pet Foods, Inc.
All of these fascinating individuals told their stories to Resnick on his radio show. In my area the show airs on Sundays mornings. Please check your local listings (or Google it) and catch Resnick's next show. The best part is that some of Resnick's past shows are archived on the linked website. The show featuring Michelle Peluso, President & CEO of Travelocity, is archived on the Legends of Success home page. I promise it will knock your socks off.
What makes Resnick's show so interesting and valuable?
His guests reveal the secrets of their success. Simple as that. All you have to do is listen and learn. I promise the "secrets" revealed are simple and easy to understand AND they work!!!!
Today's guest was Sara Blakely, Founder of SPANX, the ladies' undergarment company.
Lest you think ladies' undergarments and Sara Blakely are small potatoes, read this Forbes Magazine article: How Sara Blakely of Spanx Turned $5,000 into $1 billion.
I hope Resnick archives the show featuring Ms. Blakely. It is one of his best yet. This woman had an idea and wouldn't take "no" for an answer. Her unstoppable personality and tenacity come through in the Forbes article. I'll elaborate on her "secrets" of success in a followup post, along with some "secrets" of my own.
Below is a list of guests that have appeared on Resnick's fabulous radio show. But first, here's some more pictures of the youngest person ever to make Forbe's list of billionaires!
