#11: Coby Dixon - When Value and Rareness are Not Enough

Elysium Black Diamond not only creates a great deal of value with their black diamond jewelry, but they have built up an exclusivity around their manufacturing and protected their intellectual property such that they now truly are rare. Elysium Black Diamond co-founder Coby Dixon joined me on the podcast to talk about how they became both valuable and rare in the market and what they are working on to address eroding factors and ensure the company's longevity.

He imagines how a common framework and language like V-REEL® might contribute to the formation of unified vision and re-development plans in St. Croix, US Virgin Islands in the aftermath of hurricanes Irma and Maria. https://archive.org/download/KirkPodcast2/Kirk%20podcast%202.mp3

#18: Mark and Bethany Douglass Part II—V-REEL for the Whole Family

In Part II of my conversation with Mark and Bethany Douglass, we talk about how the L in V-REEL, Longevity, helps them carry out their family mission statement— training their children in an atmosphere that seeks creativity, education, and fosters the entrepreneurial spirit in their kids.  Bethany is quick to point out that as a family, they apply V-REEL to more than business/financial decisions. It also works with abstract and emotional goals and helps the kids better understand who they are. Both creative thinkers, Mark as an executive with Fidelis Creative Agency, and Bethany as a popular lifestyle blogger, this couple has a lot to teach all of us about strategy for business and for life. https://archive.org/download/MarkBethanyPart2/Mark%20%26%20Bethany%20Part.mp3
