We Answered Your Spiciest Business Questions! 👀 Q&A

from Success School

It's Q&A time again, and this one got spicy. Today we're answering the questions you actually sent us: the Australian government's new small business taxes, how to know if your content is working, what we'd do differently if we started the gym again, and yes, how a strippers agency could run a sales event (you read that right). We also get into the real cost of hiring the wrong sales person, why going viral doesn't always mean making more money, and what it's like navigating IVF as a couple in business together. You'll hear: 0:00 - The new Australian government taxes on small business and how much we've saved since leaving 5:38 - Is the era of easy coaching businesses over? 10:09 - If we were starting the gym over again today, what would we do differently? 14:01 - Should you care about viral content or just focus on conversions? 18:27 - The most powerful way to use AI to grow your business (controversial take) 21:57 - The most common objections on sales calls right now and how to overcome them 27:33 - How any business can run a sales event (including a strippers agency) 33:03 - Navigating fertility and IVF as the male partner If you're a service business owner and you're tired of relying on referrals to keep your calendar full, go to startsuccessschool.com and book a free Scale Session with our team. We'll look at your business, show you exactly where the gaps are, and map out what a fully booked pipeline looks like for you specifically. No fluff, no pitch fest. Just a real conversation about what's actually holding you back. We'd love to help you build something that actually works. And if you got value from today's episode, make sure you hit follow wherever you're listening. It means the world to us and it helps more service business owners find the show. You can also follow Tim and Steph over on Instagram at @timfrey__ (https://www.instagram.com/timfrey__/) and @stephgorton__ (https://www.instagram.com/stephgorton__/) for more content every week. See you next Monday.

The Professionals Infosys Knowledge Institute Lawyers, accountants, and consultants reveal their secrets to success and discuss future trends in The Professionals, an Infosys Knowledge Institute podcast. Hosted by Samad Masood, a former journalist and industry analyst with more than 20 years experience observing this dynamic and ever growing industry. NEWMORROW SESSIONS - A PodCast Series on the Future of Hospitality Mario C. Bauer, Florian Schneider, Axel Weber & Dr. Tillman Bardt The Newmorrow PodCast is more than a podcast — it's a platform for open dialog on the future of our business, a platform for those building what doesn’t exist yet. Here, we share and embrace our passion for the hospitality industry, but we won’t romanticize the journey. We ask the tough questions, confront uncomfortable truths, and prepare for a future that resists easy answers. We believe that the tougher and wilder times become, the more openly, honestly and humanely people need to talk to each other and act together. We believe, openness, togetherness, and truthfulness should also be cornerstones of a professional community to develop our utopian idea of „open source“. This is a space where visionaries don’t just imagine the future — they wrestle with the paradoxes that shape it: success vs. happiness, data vs. instinct, stability vs. reinvention. Join leaders, entrepreneurs, and thinkers as they share not what made them — but what’s actively shaping them, now and next. So tune in
