Business & Entrepreneurial Coaching

“It’s time to do work that matters, for people who care.” -Seth Godin
Is your business reaching its full potential? Desperately trying to make a dent in the universe, but keep coming up short?
Most businesses fail to achieve their ambition because they cannot meaningfully answer these two questions: Who’s it for? What’s it for?
Brian will guide you on the journey to discover precisely who your business serves and why your customers need you.
Once you have a deep understanding of those core values, everything else becomes simple. Branding, marketing strategy, hiring decisions, media appearances – they all fall into place.
The greatest businesses emerge in the most unpredictable times. While everyone else hunkers down for safety, the truly exceptional rise above the rest.
It’s your turn.

Sound good?
Even in 2020, stepping on the red dot comes with an “instant expert status” that simply cannot be replicated by any other means.
Trouble is, there are hundreds of new TEDx speeches uploaded to YouTube daily. How in the world are you supposed to cut through that noise?
And back up – how do you even get invited to speak at a TEDx conference to begin with?!
When I delivered my talk, “How to Magically Connect with Anyone,” I was still a full-time magician. Sure, I’d done okay for myself, but I was on a road to nowhere. Then I gave a 14 min talk that changed my life overnight, launching my international career as a thought leader in my industry.
My client list went from “Jenny’s 16th birthday party” and “Ma’s Diner” to Yale University, MLC, Teva Pharmaceuticals, BASF, and Trivago.
Five years later, people hardly even remember I used to be a magician.
As your speaking coach I will guide you to land a TEDx conference if you haven’t already. Then craft, rehearse, deliver, and promote the talk of your dreams.

Are You Waiting for Permission to be Yourself?
An ordinary word with extraordinary power. We spend a lot of time seeking permission. From our parents, our friends, our boss, our culture… But they can’t actually give us permission, not really – no one can. In the end, we’re the only ones who can give ourselves permission to be who we’re meant to be. To connect, to share, to engage, to dream, to risk it all. So light the fire of the people around you. Tell your kids they can do it. Tell your friends to go for their dream. Tell your students they’re capable. Give them permission to give themselves permission. As Seinfeld’s story shows us, sometimes it only takes one.
How To Connect With Someone When You Have No Time
Human connection doesn’t have to be lengthy. Every conversation holds the potential to touch a life, to inspire a dream, or to bolster someone’s confidence. Just a few minutes, or even 30 seconds, can bridge the gap between strangers and make someone’s day a little better. And when in doubt, use my favorite go-to question: “What do you love about [topic]?” It virtually guarantees they will begin talking about their values and beliefs. So next time you meet someone, remember it’s not about the length of the interaction, but the depth and quality of the connection you create.
How I Handled A Roomful Of Crushing Judgment
This was a mistake. I’m standing backstage scanning the audience with the intensity of a serial killer. Ordinarily I’d be over-the-moon at the opportunity to speak in front of such an energetic and welcoming audience. But this is different.
Ordinary Conversations Can Create Extraordinary Impact
It doesn’t take much to brighten someone’s day. And when you extend the give of human connection to another, they will extend that gift forward, and the ripple spreads quickly. Today, she is an advisor at a great school making a huge positive impact on students lives. And the critical inflection point was a single kind remark from a visiting comedy magician. It was a powerful reminder that sometimes we don’t have to do any outrageous to make a dent in the universe. We just have to be present, understanding, and kind.
Why Small Business Owners Actually Fail to Connect with Customers
Why do so many entrepreneurs and business owners fail to connect with customers? You’ve got a brilliant idea and a unique solution that doesn’t exist in the marketplace. You’re better, faster, or cheaper than the competition. Yet, your ideal customers or clients just don’t get it. And because they don’t get it, they don’t want it, and won’t buy it. What’s going on here? That’s what Tijana Buric asked me on her podcast Career Alchemist, where I was recently honored to be a guest.
How to Magically Connect with College Students in 2024
This weekend I spent two days with 1500 college students representing nearly 300 schools across America. It was NACA Live – the National Association for Campus Activities’ annual national conference. I had the incredible honor of being selected to showcase on stage for 15 minutes, and spend the day interacting with students.
