I had the pleasure of being interviewed on The Blueprint Tour for an important conversation:
Do People Still Buy From People?
In a world driven by AI, automation, and endless digital outreach, this question matters more than ever.
In Episode 9, I joined Kenneth Shultz, PE, Engineering Director at PermitZIP, and Carter Huddleston, PE, Electrical Principal Engineer at PermitZIP, to discuss what truly drives business today: relationships, consistency, trust, and the power of showing up in person.
We talked about:
โ๏ธ Networking strategies
โ๏ธ Personal branding
โ๏ธ Relationship-building
โ๏ธ Sales and business development
โ๏ธ The importance of authentic human connection in business
As Vice President of Hire Point USA and founder of Winning on Wednesday and TECHACS SAFETY SOLUTIONS, I shared insights from years of building meaningful business relationships and why people still do business with people they know, trust, and respect.
If youโre in business, sales, leadership, or growing your network, this episode will definitely resonate with you.
๐๏ธ Full episode drops May 5th.
This season of was recorded live at the IIBEC Metro New York Chapterโs Building Smarter with AI Conference in NYC.
Thank you to Kenneth Shultz, Carter Huddleston, PermitZIP, and everyone involved for the opportunity and great conversation.
