01:32
information can’t thinking guys enough
01:34
for coming on really excited with the
01:36
the lineup of people we have coming next
01:38
year anybody’s listening this it thinks
01:40
they might like to come on the show just
01:42
reach out and let us know reach out to
01:44
myself reach out to Carla Jo whatever
01:46
works for you yes and you know I would
01:48
like to thank all of our guests for
01:50
being super willing to impart such
01:55
valuable information there has been no
01:58
shortage of valuable tips advice like
02:01
all of our guests have been super
02:03
willing to help and really interested in
02:04
helping b2b companies expand so I think
02:08
that is you know quite a trait that
02:10
we’ve seen of our guests and I really
02:12
appreciate that
02:13
and so great in such a loose structure
02:15
too I mean Carl Joe we just basically
02:18
have them come on and start talking to
02:19
them we we have a topic ahead of time
02:21
but that they’re they’re fantastic at
02:24
just rolling with the punches it’s true
02:26
it’s very true and as I like to tell
02:28
them good news is you don’t really have
02:29
to prep it’s been a lot of fun it’s been
02:35
a great year really excited for for next
02:38
year to continue things on we might add
02:40
some new stuff here we’ll have to see we
02:42
would like feedback to know what our
02:43
listeners would like to learn about this
02:46
coming year there’s so many new
02:47
technologies coming out and marketing
02:49
for b2b is changing I’d like to know
02:51
what your questions issues what you want
02:54
to solve our that is a great point and
02:57
that’s one of the things I was thinking
02:58
of adding this this next year is letting
03:00
people send their questions in on any
03:03
topic they want but you know maybe we’ll
03:05
figure out a way to have the who’s gonna
03:07
be a guest up ahead of time on social
03:10
media we’ll post it and people can ask
03:11
or what the topic is gonna be and they
03:13
can submit their questions and we’ll
03:15
answer some of those every episode
03:16
something like that great idea oh wait
03:18
my daughter’s back she has something she
03:20
wants to ask
03:21
I think what’s up what am i coming to
03:27
our house or when Scarlett Joe coming to
03:29
our house I would love to or the Joe
03:36

03:38
of the country so I don’t know next time
03:41

03:43
say hi okay okay let Daddy finish okay
03:48

03:50
if you’re good you can have it thank you
03:54

03:59
time she comes they don’t ask her if she
04:00
has any advice for Beatty she’s such a
04:03
good host
04:03
I mean she’s thinking of when I’m gonna
04:05

04:07
for you so without further ado I do want
04:13
to let everybody know a little bit about
04:15
about my company the company that kind
04:17
of supports this podcast and keeps it
04:19
running financially mountaintop data
04:23
we’re a business-to-business data
04:25
company and then Johto PR
04:27
for Karla Jo she’ll say a little on on
04:29
her company so yes this is a commercial
04:31
for us but stick with me and I will make
04:34
it worth your while at the end in just a
04:36
minute so we provide marketing data
04:40
services basically again mountaintop
04:42
datacom is the domain and that includes
04:44
targeted lists for direct marketing
04:46
campaigns email telemarketing addresses
04:49
even display ad campaigns you know
04:52
people use our data and maybe Facebook
04:54
advertising stuff like that you can
04:56
import a list all kinds of stuff
04:57
basically direct marketing data we also
05:00
provide a pending services data cleaning
05:03
services anything you can think of data
05:05
wise basically so if you need company
05:08
information on your in-house database we
05:10
can append that industries company size
05:12
all that kind of stuff to help people in
05:13
their account based marketing help
05:15
people identify who their best target
05:16
audience really is and also we do very
05:19
in-depth data cleaning so not just
05:21
e-mail verification but we are a data
05:24
company at heart when it comes to
05:26
verification we verify records not just
05:29
email addresses so frequently email
05:31
addresses these days can show they’re
05:32
good when the contacts not really there
05:34
and we have very crafty ways of
05:37
identifying that and really cleaning
05:39
your data out and I will attest to that
05:41
with your company and how important that
05:43
is I mean as a b2b mark you know PR firm
05:46
that markets very heavily you know
05:48
having that clean data is very very very
05:52
important and I know your company is
05:54
considered one of the top companies for
05:57
clean data out there and staying true to
05:59
form with our lack of prep I did not
06:01
even know she was gonna say that
06:06

06:09
marketing of all different types we also
06:11
provide an email delivery service and
06:13
can get the new lead generation

07:32
Helms of Johto PR we publicize this
07:35
podcast and the guests on it my firm is
07:38
an anti PR public relations firm and all
07:42
that means is that we exist to change
07:44
how PR is perceived in terms of
07:46
measurable ROI we come from the crisis
07:49
management side of the world where time
07:50
is not a luxury and we apply all that we
07:53
learned in crisis management to give
07:55
every client the kind of results in
07:57
exposure they were seeking in the first
07:59
place we convert PR from a necessary
08:01
evil to an integral part of your growth
08:04
strategy clients and CEOs rely upon us
08:07
and gladly report to their stakeholders
08:09
the ROI they’re getting from their PR
08:11
our motto is PR isn’t the answer but
08:15
results are so if you want results from
08:17
your public relations to boost your
08:19
sales and to boost your marketing

08:50
Carla Joe by the way was a guest on our
08:53
show before a co ho
08:54
oh yeah that’s right and I love your
08:57
approach to PR Carla Jo I love basically
09:00
the concept don’t wait until you have a
09:02
major scandal to go to a PR company you
09:05
can actually head off a scandal by
09:06
having people like you before you have a
09:08
scandal yeah I think was one of the
09:10
things I learned from you you don’t have
09:12
to try to make them hate you less you
09:14
can actually give them a good impression
09:16
of you first and then something goes
09:18
wrong and they’re gonna you know give
09:20
you the benefit of doubt yeah it is the
09:22
greatest risk mitigator protection
09:25
mechanisms which is why CFOs really love
09:28
us and CEOs love us because you know as
09:32
you use PR long enough you’re the
09:34
Prophet your bottom line actually
09:36
increases and these are both measurable
09:38
by statistics so we know how to do it
09:40
that way
