“On The Money” Features Help for Struggling Businesses

DULUTH, GA–(Marketwired – May 19, 2016) –  On the May 4, 2016 edition of “On The Money” radio, host Joe Moss looked at a topic many business owners would rather ignore: how to bail themselves out of financial trouble. Clay Westbrook, who helps companies in these very situations, discussed his experiences in business, as well as his new book Debt & Circuses.

As the owner of Ascent Strategy Group, Westbrook has helped business owners and their advisors successfully negotiate their financial issues. Using proven negotiation skills, Ascent has worked out bad business loans and debt of over $4 million.

Westbrook says the process can seem daunting, but is easy to reach a resolution.

“Usually it’s as simple as having clients understand their own financial situation,” he explained to “On The Money.”

Ascent works with businesses in all different industries and, Westbrook says, helps them to battle the same challenge: an adversary with large or unlimited resources with which to exploit a struggling corporation’s weaknesses.

To learn more about Ascent and how they help businesses to see a new financial outlook, listen to the entire interview at “On The Money” radio.

On The Money Radio on Gwinnett Business RadioX Spotlights Job Creators Network

Posted on

DULUTH, GA–(Marketwired – February 17, 2016) – On The Money Radio welcomed to the studio Alfredo Ortiz and Elaine Lutz with Job Creators Network. Host Joe Moss led these guests in a discussion regarding educating employers and employees.

Job Creators Network (JCN) is a nonpartisan organization founded by entrepreneurs like Home Depot co-founder Bernie Marcus who believe the best defense against bad government policy is a well-informed public.

“Bernie Marcus started with one store in Atlanta,” explained Ortiz. “He was a small business owner. He believes that if he ever tried to recreate Home Depot today, he wouldn’t be able to be successful in this environment of over-regulation and over-taxation. He founded JCN because of his concern that small business owners wouldn’t be able to repeat the success he had.”

JCN’s nonpartisan E2E program is strictly focused on empowering individuals through basic public policy education. JCN strongly supports the right of every employee to empower themselves with as much public policy information as possible, and more importantly the right of every individual to think for themselves and make their own private decisions regarding what to do with that information.

The JCN E2E program gives employers simple tools to talk to their employees about government policy. They break things down with easy to understand videos, blog posts, infographics and social media posts. All of it can be easily viewed at InformationStation.org.

To learn more about the Job Creators Network, listen to the entire interview at On The Money.

ATLANTA, GA–(Marketwired – December 02, 2015) – On November 19, 2015, On The Money Radio hosted a special edition live from the Gwinnett Center as part of the Small Business Summit and interviewed Doug Nicely with Eagle Rock Studios. Host Joe Moss sat down with Nicely to discuss the booming film and television industry in Georgia and how the industry impacts small business.

Doug Nicely is the EVP of Studio Operations for Eagle Rock Studios, the largest stage complex under one roof in the United States. The facility includes two furnished production offices and four 30,000 sq. ft. stages, including 20,000 sq. ft. clear span, each with silent air conditioning and 4,000 amps. There are 50 loading docks surrounding the facility providing easy access to 100,000 sq. ft. of storage and 40,000 sq. ft. of supporting areas including shops, holding and catering areas.

Georgia ranks third in the U.S. for feature film production. The film and television industry in Georgia directly employs 23,500 people, with nearly 8,200 production-related employees. The state reports the film industry had a $5.1 billion economic impact during the 2014 fiscal year. As part of Eagle Rock Studio’s impact on the local business community, Nicely added, “The studio is projected to create jobs at every income level, from film talent to crew members, including grips, tradesmen/set builders, caterers, cleaning, wardrobe and makeup staff.”

Recently, Eagle Rock Studios Atlanta joined five other Georgia-based film studios to form the Georgia Studio and Infrastructure Alliance (GSIA), a new film and television studio and infrastructure association. The group hopes to serve as advocates for the education of crew members and the development of talent needed to keep clients returning to Georgia.

On the Money Radio on Gwinnett Business RadioX Features Singer-Songwriter Joey Stuckey

Posted on

ATLANTA, GA–(Marketwired – November 06, 2015) – On October 21, 2015, On The Money welcomed to the studio Joey Stuckey. Host Joe Moss sat down with Stuckey to talk about the exciting world of the music industry and why music is so important to business.

Joey Stuckey is the owner and president of Joey Stuckey Music & Shadow Sound Studios. Stuckey is an award-winning blind guitarist, songwriter, singer, composer, producer, radio and television personality, music columnist, educator and sound engineer. He is also the official music ambassador for his home town of Macon, Georgia. Stuckey’s guitar style is reminiscent of rocker Jeff Beck and jazzer Wes Montgomery, while his vocal influences range from Mel Torme to Gregg Allman.

Stuckey is currently involved with students, instructing them on guitar, voice, music theory, and sound engineering. He is the professor of Music Technology at Mercer University and an official mentor for the Recording Connections School in Los Angeles. Recently, Stuckey has taken on the role of music publisher and has a growing catalog of songs in multiple genres. His publishing companies include Sociology Publishing (BMI) and Sign Wave Publishing (ASCAP).

As a musician and business owner, Stuckey has a unique approach to his music. “You have to figure out who your audience is so you do have to kind of label things. But I just love to play music — I love country, I love rock, I love classical, I love jazz. That’s the blessing of being a recording engineer and producer because I get to play so many different styles of music.”

Stuckey spoke directly to the business of music and how it correlates to business in general. “There’s a wonderful military saying that says ‘No great plan withstands contact with the enemy.’ I’ve taken that mantra and I use it in my business. Just because I have a good plan that makes sense and sounds like it’s good, by the time we actually interact with people who are dynamic and not static, just because a good plan doesn’t work doesn’t mean you’re doing the wrong thing. You just need to be flexible and be able to try and do something different.”

Stuckey treated listeners to his rendition of “Georgia On My Mind.” To hear him perform, as well as talk more about his music background and career, listen to the entire interview at On The Money.
