Exploring The Gratitude Business Part Two w/ RE Agent, CEO & Entrepreneur Steve Buzogany

How you can scale your gratitude and thankfulness by using gifts and acts of kindness to do the heavy, intimate lifting. We all have a mission. For some, the mission in life is to bring gratitude to as many people as possible in the form of relationship building. Can that extend to business? I believe so. So does Steve Buzogany. Steve’s goal is to live inside the minds of his customers 365 days of the year. Steve is the founder and CEO of The Appreciation Advocate, a company that uses gift-giving to generate more referrals for small businesses. Since 2012, Steve has been a small business owner who focused his business around one thing...building deep and meaningful relationships. By doing so, he was able to sell nearly $100M worth of real estate working 3-4 days a week and while taking off 1-2 months per year.  Today, Steve helps other small businesses quickly stand out among the crowd, build deep and substantive relationships, eliminate burnout, take more time off, generate more referrals, increase income, and have more fun in their career. If you wonder how you can better position yourself and your business to gain referrals through appreciation, this is the episode for you. If you are concerned that you may poison your best customer relationships and prevent referrals, you should listen to the conversation we have. Let’s talk gift giving and how the practice can help you right now!!! Quote of the Episode: “Do give yourself some grace. Sometimes people are just busy, so they just can’t get around to say thank you for whatever reason. Now for me, thank you is priority number one all of the time. If someone sends me a gift, first thing I’m going to do is call them, text them, send them a video, some form of acknowledgement of that, but most of society does not do that.”  Steve Buzogany on people  Topics Covered: Thankfulness Creating referrals  Turning your gratitude into profit Work less and build a stronger business Guest: Steve Buzogany  Website: https://appreciationadvocate.com Instagram:@AppreciationAdvocate Steve’s Top Picks: referenced in podcast: - Guest watch/read/listen recommendation: Eagles https://www.philadelphiaeagles.com/audio/ - Guest secret watch/read/listen: Hydro Foiling  https://www.surfertoday.com/surfing/the-beginners-guide-to-foil-surfing Host: Deeon Brown Website: deeonbrown.com Website: projectbigbrand.com/ Linkedin: linkedin.com/in/deeon-brown-6b747b43/ Instagram: instagram.com/bestdeeonever/ Man Versus Brand: Website: manversusbrand.com Instagram: instagram.com/manversusbrand/
