Whitty’s journey to this point started back at the University of South Carolina where she graduated with a degree in business administration. After spending a short time working in commercial real estate in New York City, she accepted a position with Two Men and a Truck in Fairfield County, Conn. in 2001.

Her cousins own the location, and they recruited her as a move consultant. After four years, Whitty was promoted to an office manager. A short time after her promotion, Whitty moved to Atlanta when her husband was relocated for work. She joined the management team at the Two Men and a Truck franchise located in Tucker, Ga. and continued to use her extensive experience to climb the ranks. As the management team grew their portfolio to five franchises in 2012, she continued to shine and became a multi-unit manager.

In January of this year, Whitty had the opportunity to purchase her own franchise in downtown Atlanta, and she capitalized on it.

Chiropractic Care: Not Just for Pain!

The Doctors Roundtable

Chiropractic Care: Not Just for Pain!

00:00 /

Over 20 million Americans will seek chiropractic care this year! Chiropractic care has been around for over 100 years and involves care of the musculoskeletal and nervous system through use of a hands on, drug free, non-invasive and natural approach. Chiropractors have broad diagnostic skills. This type of care has been increasingly covered by health insurance plans in the US and is appropriate for all ages. Typically, patients turn to chiropractic care seeking relief from back pain, neck pain, joint injuries and headaches. However, chiropractic care is appropriate for all ages and for many types of health conditions, both chronic and acute. Chiropractors use such modalities as heat, spinal manipulation (adjustments), nutrition, acupuncture, biofeedback, labs, imaging and exercise to achieve immediate relief and long lasting results.

This segment will discuss how this specialty can assist with many other types of health issues that the public may not associate chiropractic care with at first, such as: infant care (birth trauma recovery, growth promotion, colic, chronic ear infections), pre and post-natal pregnancy support (low back pain, pelvic support prior to delivery), carpal tunnel syndrome and acid reflux problems (hiatal hernia, GERD). Goals of this type of treatment include immediate and long term relief, decreased drug and surgical intervention and promotion of general health.

In this segment, Dr. Forrest Watts, a Doctor of Chiropractic in Cumming, GA will discuss how chiropractic can help many types of patients beyond neck and back pain. Dr. Watts has also received additional training in acupuncture and sports injuries. Listeners can visit: www.drforrestwatts.com and www.acatoday.org for more information.

Good Morning Atlanta

Andrew Keenan and Charles Willi of Workshop 4

00:00 / 00:52:06

Workshop 4 Managing Director Andrew Keenan, and Creative Director Charles Willi join host Dana Barrett for a discussion of Brand-to-Brand Marketing and how companies should be looking at individuals as brands, i.e. more than just demographics. They discuss the idea that companies used to see the only value proposition of their customers as their money. In other words, cash was the only thing the customer brought to the relationship. But now, they can bring so much more… evangelism, new ideas, honest feedback and more.

Of course the trio had to also spend a few minutes on the travesty that is the government shut down.

Tune in for a great episode! And for more on Brand-to-Brand Marketing, go to Workshop4.com

Who do you interview on Trade Show Radio? – Business RadioX

October 2, 2013 by angishields

Stone

We interview people that our client feels are the most difficult to reach and the most important for their business. Typically, their prospective clients, their existing clients, or thought leaders in the industry. They are usually the keynote speakers at the event, the panelists, the high-value targets.

Lee

Sometimes, depending on the event, the client may also invite just participants; people that are there for the conference, for ad-hoc interviews. It most certainly works best when you have a steady schedule of people whose interviews you know you want to capture over the course of the conference.

Stone

That’s right. A lot of times, these interviews are scheduled weeks in advance. The client’s salespeople schedule the interview with prospective interviewees several weeks, even a month ahead of time. As soon as they know they’re going to attend the conference, they could reach out to them and schedule their interview.

Lee

I think that goes to one of the many reasons that clients work with us and why they invest in this service. Beyond all the other advantages of doing Tradeshow Radio onsite, what a marvelous reason for business development folks to reach out and have a meaningful conversation with prospects, referrals, sources, people that are important to them. It’s simple to make that phone call and invite them to be interviewed at the expo.
