I have to admit that when your email said “Biggest” guest – I was secretly hoping for Mike Myers (Austin Powers) and a redux of his performance as “Fat Bastard.” Just kidding… great interview!
LOL
Great interview!
Thanks man and great submitted question!
“If you can get your people out of the office having fun than you will become the creative hotbed of your industry!…It was the FUN card that made it happen.”… So brilliant! I’m so glad she got that power point in! Thank you Barbara for sharing all your deep wisdom. 🙂
A golden nugget 🙂
Wonderful interview David! Love and agree with her point on the having fun. The best business have fun — look at you 🙂

Wow David….I loved this interview. Barbara is my favorite SHARK!!!!

Barbara Corcoran is such an amazing lady, with an incredible story. And I’m not just saying that because she has an AWESOME last name.
hahaha
You did such a great job with this interview, David! She was FUN! (huge prerequisite, I agree!) I really enjoyed it
Totally true. F.U.N
Great interview, David! I love how simple, practical and downright witty her answers and strategies are! I found out about her from Shark Tank and I think she’s such a great inspiration-in-action business woman. Oh, and I can’t believe you asked my question – woohoo! Thanks so much!
My pleasure, Melodee! And a great question!
What an incredible guest to land, David. The interview rocked, as expected.
Thanks J!
This might very well be the best interview I’ve seen here yet. No, it actually is the BEST interview I’ve seen yet.
LOVED IT and Great Job David…
Good god you talk too much. Let your guest do the talking. This was painful, I muted you out just to listen to Barbara.
