Sam Pagel with Resound and Ray Delmuro with Refresh Glass E15

This episode of MAC6 Community Connection Radio Show and Podcast was jam-packed with great insights and tips about marketing, mergers, business partnership, and more.

Hosts, Jennifer Burwell and Kyle McIntosh welcomed Ray DelMuro of Refresh Glass and Sam Pagel from Resound to the studio for an uplifting and inspiring conversation.

Here are a few of the hosts’ takeaways from interviewing Ray and Sam…

~Focus on what brings you joy and create a business around something you are passionate about.

~If you are going to create a business out of your passion and expect to be successful, make sure you can provide a ton of value to people.

~As in life, the key to any great business partnership or relationship is excellent communication.

~Find your people. You can’t build a company on your own. Surround yourself with a good community.

Resound believes people are intrinsically remarkable. And the brands they create together are too. But too often the demands of starting and growing an organization distract those within from reflecting their remarkable identity. Instead, they find themselves settling for copycat, unclear, or superficial branding.

Resound’s purpose is to be the most trusted provider of services, training, and tools for organizations at each stage of growth to help them unlock their own unique, clear, and authentic brands in order for them to build lasting relationships with their customers, employees, and partners.

To sum it all up, Resound exists to guide organizations to unlock their authentic brands so they can build lasting relationships.

Sam Pagel started his own media company back in 2011 when he saw a need for higher quality marketing and communication media amongst local businesses here in Arizona. He started his company, Pelican Media, as a video production company and grew it to serve businesses with photography, web development, and collateral design. Through Pelican Media, Sam served businesses such as Walgreens, Google, Dignity Health, Dunn Edwards Paints and many others.

October of 2019 saw a big change in Sam’s career. After being office mates for over 6 years, Sam merged his company with Resound and became a partner and Chief Creative Officer alongside CEO Mike Jones.

Sam is married to his beautiful wife, Ashley, and they have three kids under 5 years old. They live in Chandler, Arizona, love being outdoors, and enjoy exploring new places as a family.

Karianne Munstedt is an award-winning portrait photographer, speaker, coach and author. She is an artist and nurturer, fiercely motivated by using her talents to make women feel confident, empowered, and whole.

Karianne is no stranger to perfectionism. As a child, growing up with an abusive role model left her filled with fear; she countered this by attempting to be perfect, but never took the time to understand who she was.

She continued down a path of perfection that led her to a marriage, a job, and other endeavors that weren’t right for her. Karianne started a journey to get to know herself in her 30s. On her spiritual journey, she connected back to the thing that brought her joy as a child… photography. She discovered an innate talent to capture a person’s true inner beauty – the real person inside.

From her years as a portrait photographer working with hundreds of women, Karianne also saw that perfectionism was the reason why most women shy away from the camera. She invites women into her photography studio to feel loved, cherished, and accepted, and to show them that they are beautiful and deserve to exist in photos just as they are.

In addition to photography, Karianne also speaks to and coaches women across the world about how to shift their negative perfectionist thoughts in order to live their fullest, most extraordinary lives.

Personally, Karianne is a wife, mommy to a toddler son, stepmother to a teenage daughter, and doggy momma.

Renasant Bank has humble roots, starting in 1904 as a $100,000 bank in a Lee County, Mississippi, bakery. Since then, Renasant has grown to become one of the Southeast’s strongest financial institutions with over $13 billion in assets and more than 190 banking, lending, wealth management and financial services offices in Mississippi, Alabama, Tennessee, Georgia and Florida. All of Renasant’s success stems from each of their banker’s commitment to investing in their communities as a way of better understanding the people they serve. At Renasant Bank, they understand you because they work and live alongside you every day.
