Pursuing Profit with Principles

A series of Expert Interviews for Entrepreneurs

Entrepreneurs are often seeking new ways to make their business more efficient, less stressful and more profitable. Each Monday and Friday, join me, Regina Partain Bergman, best-selling author, speaker, Profit Acceleration Specialist and Marketing Strategist and business growth specialist as I interview other successful entrepreneurs. I am a serial entrepreneur myself who built a multi-million dollar business only to see it fail in the financial crash of 2008, and then rose from the ashes to create 3 more business, including my current business, Bridgeport Strategy, where I help transform businesses, both online and offline, and local economies, while helping entrepreneurs realize their vision of impacting lives and changing the world.

One of my superpowers is helping entrepreneurs overcome the overwhelm and fear that keeps them from stepping up and making a difference in the world. I love being a part of the ripple effect you create when you step into your superpower, your purpose and passion and go make a difference in the world.

In this podcast we will explore how to make your business more successful. I will interview other entrepreneurs at various stages of success to share with you their journey and what is working for them now. They will share leadership principles. They will talk about how pursuing their purpose and passion has impacted their success. And they will identify at least one profit strategy that has made a difference in the profitability of their business. As you know, without profit, you don’t have a business. In fact, a recent study showed that over 90% of business failures cite lack of profitability as one of the main reasons they went out of business.

Additionally, I will be sharing some basic principles and the 5 steps to Generating profit in your business. We will talk about marketing, lead generation, converting those leads to clients, how to generate more profit from your business and so much more.

I also have a passion for helping families as demonstrated by my international best selling book, Bulletproof Your Marriage. Knowing the stress that entrepreneurs are under who are struggling in their business, I work to help them create a profitable business, alleviating that stress which allows for better communication and less stress in the office and the home, thus creating a positive generational impact. My personal motto is “Save a Business – Save a marriage and vice-versa.’

Most of our guests will have a gift or an offer for you to enhance your business or personal development. If you are an entrepreneur seeking more time, more profit or cash flow in your business and less stress in your life, resulting in more freedom and improved relationships, then this is the podcast for you.

Remember, I will be here every Monday and Friday to greet you and kick off and end your week on a positive note.
