Audra Carpenter Teaser 00:00

These people had high hopes and they're determined and they're driven with passion and excitement of doing something great. But you know, I've done this so many years, I could tell you when I meet you, if the business is going to make it or not, if you've got what it takes.

Intro 00:16

Are you ready to hear business stories and learn effective ways to build relationships, generate sales, and level up your business from awesome CEOs, entrepreneurs, and founders without listening to a long, long, long interview?

If so, you've come to the right place. Gresh values your time and is ready to share with you the valuable info you're in search of. This is the I Am CEO podcast.

Gresham Harkless 00:45

Hello. Hello. Hello. This is Gresh from the I Am CEO podcast. And I have a very special guest on the show today. I have Audra Carpenter. Audra, excited to have you on the show.

Audra Carpenter 00:53

Thanks for having me. I'm looking forward to this conversation.

Gresham Harkless 00:56

Yes, absolutely. I always look forward to my conversations with Audra. She has so much information, so much knowledge and experience that I'm excited to try to delve a little bit deeper into. But of course, before we do that, I want to read a little bit more about Audra. So you can hear about some of those awesome things she's been working on.

An entrepreneur with a diverse portfolio, ranging from coffee shops to digital marketing agency. She has coached and mentored thousands of budding business owners and established Zindo.co marketplace, an edutech platform dedicated to supporting online business growth.

And I had the opportunity to be a guest on Audra's podcast. And we talked a little bit about AI, all the awesome things that she has a phenomenal conference that I also got a chance to to speak at.

But I really geek out. And like I mentioned, I really geek out on just talking with her about all the tinkering that she's doing that I'm doing and just overall the tools to see. There's just so many things out there.

But one of the things that really kind of touched me as I was reading a little bit more about her and when I was preparing for this interview and she said, even as a little girl, she's always been driven by challenging herself and doing the thing that hasn't been done before.

So Audra, excited to have you on the show. Even more about what you're working on and doing. Are you ready to speak to the I Am CEO community?

Audra Carpenter 02:03

I'm excited that, you know, this is the first podcast I've done in 2024. So this is great. This is kind of setting the level and, and the direction going forward. So thank you for having me again.
