Robb Fahrion: Hi, everyone! This is Robb Fahrion with The Sage Executive Podcast, where top executives share their sage advice, six questions, and nine minutes because the wise speak in few words. We have a really exciting guest here today that we are fortunate enough to have on our show. So let’s get right to it. First and foremost, in a few sentences, tell me how who you are and what you do.

Kristyn Lawson: Hi, Robb, its Kristyn Lawson, and I’m the President and Founder of PSM, Preferred Sales and Marketing. I’m in the food industry, and we have a focus on fresh produce and vegetables and ready to eat foods too, that are healthy and good for you, Guacamole Queens.

Robb Fahrion: Oh, there we go. I love guacamole, one of my favorites. All right, second question, moving forward. What’s the best thing for you about being a leader?

Kristyn Lawson: Well, it’s really to have a beginner’s day a little better. So I like having a positive impact if that is with colleagues, customers, I’m really just starting our general community. I like having an impact on making life better for people, and so in my position, I’m glad to have that opportunity.

Robb Fahrion: Great, I love that always looking for ways as a leader to help others. I think that’s one of the best things I get out of it as well, so can totally relate. We hear from a lot of other executives that acquiring new clients nowadays is very difficult. There’s a lot of noise, a lot of competition. So it’s just curious what your thoughts are on a new client and new business acquisition?

Kristyn Lawson: Yeah, you know, I really think that it’s sort of like dating or marriage. And I, I just feel that when you have those engagements, sometimes you can really just like the company like the people, but unless you really have that synergetic magic, that seven cents, maybe you’re just not the right fit, and that’s okay. There are so many, so many opportunities where you can get that that great best fit and, and be great together. So it’s okay if sometimes it’s just not the right fit, and there’s a lot of good fits out there. So it’s okay.

Robb Fahrion: Definitely! That’s great advice. Moving on, question four. We’re doing great on time. What other piece of sage advice would you give to other executives like yourself?

Kristyn Lawson: You know, over the years, I really, one word sticks out, like glaring and its gratitude. And I just have so much gratitude for the people I work with for the people that I can mentor for my clients, for the customers that we serve, you know, having that level of appreciation. I think gratitude helps create vision amongst the team that feels like there’s an open forum because we’re, you know, everyone is when everyone feels appreciated. I think great things happen and blossom from that. And it also brings little, like chaos to order, because if you’re really operating with a sense of gratitude and appreciation, it elevates everything from the ideas to the opportunities, so gratitude, absolutely gratitude. It’s really the currency in my business.

Robb Fahrion: Great, yeah, I love that. Yeah, just being thankful happy to be there working, communicating having all just the regular blessings of everyday life even almost.

Kristyn Lawson: And you know today within the situation that we are in, it’s probably even more special than it than it ever has been because we all do have a lot to be grateful for so as we move.

Robb Fahrion: Awesome, yes, I love that totally agree with you. All right, question number five. Now, what other top executives like yourself? Would you like to acknowledge as maybe a leader and someone that you think would be a great guest on our show? For our viewers?

And he definitely has a really admirable way about how he works with teams. He’s Fantastic, and he has a pretty nice resume. I think he lives in Colorado now after a recent new position happened that I’m sure he’s excited. Colorado’s great so.

Robb Fahrion: No doubt, no doubt. Okay, great. That’s awesome. And then finally some final question you’re doing great you’re making it through here. It’s a fun one. So after a win and it could be any type of way in business when personal win. How do you like to celebrate?
