RaderCo - Weekender Snapshot


Woot, woot!

Celebrating my 11th business anniversary on July 16 was perfect timing with so many cool happenings this year. We jazzed up both the RaderCo and Marcey Rader websites and rolled out my brand-new speaker reel, showcasing the core message I deliver in keynotes, training, and coaching. It was a big investment but totally worth it, and Video Narrative nailed it!

Watch it below and let me know what you think! If you know a team, organization, or meeting professional who could use this message, please share it with them.

I also had the honor of being the opening keynote for Visit Raleigh and helped meeting professionals Elevate Their Focus.

It was one of the best small conferences I've presented at in 11 years – well-organized, super-fun emcees, a fantastic venue at the Westin RTP, delicious buffet, local gifts (hello, Headbands of Hope!), and a give-back exercise for Oak City Cares. Plus, my suit perfectly matched their event colors! #Extra

On the personal front, I celebrated my 26th wedding anniversary with our annual reflections, an hour in a sensory deprivation tank, Laotian food, and Ben & Jerry's. B&J was our first date on October 19, 1993; we've had it every month since.

Yep, for 31 years!

When you get this, I'll be out of the office for the next two weeks. I'm in the wedding of my amazing friend Justin Jones-Fosu and we're also opening a middle school in Akyremade, Ghana, through the Work Meaningful Foundation. Then, I'm back for one day before heading to the National Speaker Association Influence conference in Denver for a whole week. I'll be back in the office working with the coolest clients ever on August 13! Wanna be one?

On with the Weekender!

Q4 budget windows close fast. If you're looking for something to give your team before the year ends, I want to make sure you know this exists. The Right Things First is a pocket guide to relentless prioritization across health, work, relationships, home, and digital life. Small enough for a back pocket. Practical enough to use the same week it arrives. Every copy includes a free audio version I recorded (65 minutes). It works as a standalone team resource or paired with a keynote or...

Planning is a productive-looking way to procrastinate. An afternoon, a document, and the feeling you worked on the quarter. Then you can execute a list you never examined. Why it matters: If you can't plan, you can't prioritize. If you're not prioritizing, you're planning the wrong things. There's a step before both. Reflect. Prioritize. Plan. In that order. One thing you can do now: Before you plan next quarter, answer one question about the last one. What did you keep saying yes to that...

Optimize or prioritize? | When everything feels urgent | Peyton Manning Last weekend was super fun and active. My brother came to visit, and we hiked about 10 miles, visited the trolls at Dorothea Dix Park, and saw Salt-N-Pepa, En Vogue, and TLC. I also showed him how to use Claude to improve his SEO, GEO, and AEO for his steel business. With Emily Crookston and Todd Rader at the Iconic concert. The setup matters more than the ask: Claude needs to understand your business before you ask it to...
