Listen "Date Your Clients with Mark Young"
Episode Synopsis
Date Your Clients“If, by the title alone, you’re thinking that this book sounds unconventional;you’re right. It isn’t for the faint of heart, if we’re being honest, because itssole purpose is revisiting many of the most embarrassing, traumatic, andwish-you-could-forget moments from your dumpster fire of a love life –then applying all those painful lessons directly to your professional life.Even if your life took the “marry my high school sweetheart” track, it’s notalways been wine and roses, I’d bet, so pony up and let’s ride.“You see, my contention is that relationships, regardless of their context,follow predictable patterns. And, as you’ll hopefully learn throughout thisinked masterpiece, there is no point in learning a lesson twice. If you’velearned it in one area of life, that knowledge (and by knowledge, I mean“shame, embarrassment, guilt, joy, heartbreak, and butterflies”) can beapplied to virtually any other situation.“Truth is, we are always learning – like it or not. And, as much as I hate toadmit it, we likely learn the most when things go wrong. The more wrong,the more learning, I suppose. Through dips and turns, twists of fate, andthe retelling of some of my own guilt-soaked illustrations, we’re going tocling to failure and use it as the very manure which will grow you into thesuccess that you’ve always dreamed of being.”Whether you’re a business owner, business manager, or even an aspiringtroubadour, there’s something to be learned between the covers of thiswit-filled text. So, grab a beer. You may need it. This raw (sometimes veryraw) journey is going to need some honesty. I’ll start the conversation, butit is ultimately yours to finish. Introspect and reminisce – and judge if youmust – but, at this point, we’re just a couple of friends having a beer anddiscussing life.”Date Your Clients is a step-by-step juxtapositionbetween the relational skills required in dating andthose required to be successful in business. Withchapter titles such as, The First Date, Meeting the Family,and The First Fight, the author seamlessly weaves hisway through the complicated landscape of relationshipsand provides humourous illustrations of life’s worstmomentshttps://dateyourclients.com/
