My New Favorite Podcast

Mollymariephoto| Dec 17, 2018
“This is. my new favorite podcast. I love getting a real inside peak at the day to day operations of successful COOs and thier companies. Now if somebody would just create something like this but with CEOs. Regardless, I love this podcast.”

Most Practical Podcast

Christina2234| Jul 28, 2018
“I’ve learned so much practical information through these podcasts. Cameron Herold has done a great job choosing smart and experienced COOs who generously share their wins as well as their struggles. The COOs share actual systems and processes that have been effective – it’s not just general ideas that are shared, instead it’s concrete systems that are used. Can’t wait for the next one!! Keep em coming Cameron Herold – I’m learning so much!”

Legendary

Christopher Lochhead| Jun 26, 2018

MaeSteigler| Jun 19, 2018
“In each podcast, Cameron does an unparalleled job of presenting tools and insights from incredible industry leaders offering coaching strategies of his own. Tons of value and highly recommended to anyone wanting to grow their business and accelerate success”

Innovative Visionary Leader

Theimpactmike| Apr 9, 2018
“There is a reason Cameron is one of the world’s most sought after speakers and coaches to CEOs: He has a unique understanding of the process of crafting vision, creating culture and building organizations. This podcast gives listeners a peak into the minds of some of the most brilliant chief operators in the business world.”

CEOs and COOs, MUST listen podcast

BradJohnson25| Apr 8, 2018
“Our company consults financial advisors from all across the country and I’ve seen first hand the tremendous impact Cameron and his ideas and systems have had on our clients. In our business, there is no shortage of ideas, just a shortage of execution and that’s what I. love about Cameron’s teaching style, he simplifies what often times seems complex to the level where it can be acted upon. Just have your COOs subscribe and thank me later.”

Nobody knows COOs like Cameron

Clay Hebert| Apr 8, 2018
“Cameron understands why businesses work… because he understands how humans work. He’s not a theory guy. Everything he teachers, he’s done himself, in the trenches…and he continues to study the best. CEOs typically get all the press, focus and podcast interviews. In second-in-command, Cameron decodes the insight from the top COOs in the world. Only listen if you want to streamline your business, understand your revenue and increase your profits.”
