Post author By Tracy
Post date April 28, 2020

Welcome to the show!

I’m so glad you are with me today. My last episode was about making an impact with your message in interviews and so today I wanted to talk about using your voice when you interview people.

Now, this could mean as a podcast host, it could mean on a live stream, it could also mean as someone using their voice to interview a potential job candidate.

I do refer to podcasting quite a bit but these techniques are valuable for anyone using their voice to interview others.

I think you are going to like this episode!

Welcome to the show!

I’m very excited about my guest today and the timely conversation that she and I have around the economy and money, something I know is on everyone’s mind.

When it comes to making money, the voice is key. Your voice has the ability to help you make money by compelling others to take the action you want them to take.

But, today I’m asking Lou Anne a number of questions about the economy and her work and she’s definitely using her voice in a powerful way to share her thoughts about what’s going on in the world right now.

In today’s episode we talk about:

What we might expect to happen with the economy,

What we can do different as far as action steps to avoid financial problems we are having right now because we may not have been as prepared for this pandemic,

How to solve cash flow issues,

What’s important for small businesses and everyone to know right now with the state of our world in relation to financial decisions,

Options to help you right now.
