A Transformative Year in Europe
Thank you for bringing that up. That was the best year of my life. I went to college for five years, right? So this was my junior year, then I did senior, super senior. So I went to Europe the fall of 93 through 94. And I stayed in Europe during Christmas break. I didn't come home. So I was there for 11 months. I was 21 at the time, and I lived in Spain. I started off in El Porto de Santa Maria, which is right next to Cadiz, one of the famous ships, the Santa Maria from Columbus. Then I went to Madrid, then I toured Europe, and then I came back to Sevilla. But when I was in Europe, I went as far east as Prague, far south as Corfu in Greece at the Pink Palace. You know I went to Amsterdam. I was also in Tangier, Morocco. But here's the skinny-diny, right? I'm 21 years old, couple grand in my pocket, Euro pass, and a backpack. I couldn't call home. This was a collect call at least once a week or a postcard, so I disappeared. But here's what I realized. The parties were there. I mean, all day, every day. But instead of going to the party at 12, 1 or 2 o'clock, I would get up early to go to the ruins, go to the museums, do something.
Figuring Out the Secret Sauce in Communication
But these are golden nuggets. I mean, like I said, I've done my fair share of phone calls and communication studies as well. What you're talking about, Richard, you're right. You it is absolutely clear. You have listened to tens of thousands of calls and analyzed them and found the patterns. Right. There is no question in my mind, my man, the way that you laid it out so eloquently, I just felt like an infant in communication because, I mean, it was well executed. And I think it's really, really cool that that exists and that to find that purity, I think you found it, man. So if anything, you figured out the secret sauce.
Imagination and Innocence: Keys to Future Entrepreneurs
And I think we can not push them into adulthood or to maturity or stress too fast. They don't need to lose their innocence. And still create power and strength right through this. You're creating power and strength, right? Through imagination, play, and innocence. And diversity. All day. Because like you said, the canoe metaphor that you used I think was amazing because... Well, when the canoe starts going sideways, I don't care how many books you read or what information you know, you're going to have to pull on and pull from that amazing imagination and make this work. And I think you will be building the next generation of entrepreneurs with those books. For sure, because that is the rapids that we navigate as entrepreneurs every single day. And in all cases, but definitely as entrepreneurs, for sure.
Reflections on Wisdom and the Telemarketing Industry
I'm the elder around the fireside now telling tales and giving wisdom. And so to me, it was important. You've been to Costa Rica with your wife so many times. You love it here. And you know what it's like to be a guest in the country. And so since I was given such positive reinforcement, it felt right. And since English is my native tongue, I had that sort of leverage. But then again, I could use it to make a career. Do I love this industry? Some parts of it. I enjoy the art of speech. I enjoy the technology. I can't stand the attrition rates. or what Hollywood does to glamorize telemarketing call centers. And there's a lot of misconceptions. And also, you know, it's a grind. The industry can burn people out.
Selling Candy and Life Lessons in a Creepy Van
No, I made a dollar a box. I mean, this guy, and I don't tell this story often, but his name was Ruby. He had a gray van with no windows, the short Chevy van to the creepy one. That sounds so shady. And my mom, I was like, I swear I was 14 maybe. My mom would let me leave with this guy for four hours a night on school nights. And sell candy. and sell caricatures. I did that for East Abington Little League, a box of 100 back in the late 70s. I would knock on the door back and ride on Abington, dollar a thing for the uniforms, but good for you. Well, you're okay now, so obviously nothing bad happened, but for 14 years old, they probably loved you. They probably bought two candy bars. They must have. I did something right, man, but I was just doing it, right? And thanks for asking, by the way. Share a little bit about me, but that particular part of my life, I never thought it would have the impact that it did. It surprised me later on. In fact, surprised me so much, I just had this epiphany, and then I decided to put it on my LinkedIn as one of my jobs.
Straight Shooter: The Basics of Successful Communication
A lot of the times, I like to not be a devil's advocate, but let's be a straight shooter. If somebody only has 400 phone numbers, that's not enough to last the month. Maybe they don't have a script. Maybe the tone of their script is too aggressive. There's no rebuttals in case someone asks a question. No email template, no voicemail template, no pipeline. So I'm going to say, yo, bodies, I mean, this is where we're beginning. And so a lot of the times, it's really working backwards.
Unique Training Methods Using Arcade and Storytelling
I start with dessert first and you know what your favorite class was back in the day. It was recess. Let's call a spade a spade. You were kind enough to mention my, my pastime and my collection of antique pinball machines and retro arcade machines. And so what I like to do prior to the first training class is to have the dozen agents out there in the arcade playing pinball with one another in air hockey. It can reduce their stress. They start bonding through play. They make friends. And then when they're in the training room, they're now contributing more than just absorbing. And I try to do checkpoints with people. I like the triple gun trainings. Just don't give me an answer back, Chad. I'm going to expect you to stand up in front of the class, hold your paper in the left, use your right hand because of illustrators. It gives you another 15% of expression and helps you with your pausing and pacing. And I'm just trying to triple building confidence. But I got something even better for you. When people come in prior to working at the company, they fill out a resume, OK? And they put in all the bells and whistles. But man, that's what everybody does. So I'm going to say, Chad, why don't you turn the paper over and give me three paragraphs of a coming of age moment. I want to see your grammar, your vocabulary in English. I also want to see when you beat up a bully or if you saved a kitten out of a tree or if you happen to do both in one day. Why do I do this? Because I want to see depth. I also want to make a nickname for you. And also on a rainy Wednesday, I want to tell you that you're the kitty saving champ just to give you that second wind and remind you of where you are and where you're going. And so I can separate a lot of people that want to be promoted immediately without showing any sort of merit. I would prefer to have people without any bad habits. They could speak the English. They just don't know a predictive dialer or a CRM. I can teach that in five minutes.

A Transformative Year in Europe
Thank you for bringing that up. That was the best year of my life. I went to college for five years, right? So this was my junior year, then I did senior, super senior. So I went to Europe the fall of 93 through 94. And I stayed in Europe during Christmas break. I didn't come home. So I was there for 11 months. I was 21 at the time, and I lived in Spain. I started off in El Porto de Santa Maria, which is right next to Cadiz, one of the famous ships, the Santa Maria from Columbus. Then I went to Madrid, then I toured Europe, and then I came back to Sevilla. But when I was in Europe, I went as far east as Prague, far south as Corfu in Greece at the Pink Palace. You know I went to Amsterdam. I was also in Tangier, Morocco. But here's the skinny-diny, right? I'm 21 years old, couple grand in my pocket, Euro pass, and a backpack. I couldn't call home. This was a collect call at least once a week or a postcard, so I disappeared. But here's what I realized. The parties were there. I mean, all day, every day. But instead of going to the party at 12, 1 or 2 o'clock, I would get up early to go to the ruins, go to the museums, do something.
Figuring Out the Secret Sauce in Communication
But these are golden nuggets. I mean, like I said, I've done my fair share of phone calls and communication studies as well. What you're talking about, Richard, you're right. You it is absolutely clear. You have listened to tens of thousands of calls and analyzed them and found the patterns. Right. There is no question in my mind, my man, the way that you laid it out so eloquently, I just felt like an infant in communication because, I mean, it was well executed. And I think it's really, really cool that that exists and that to find that purity, I think you found it, man. So if anything, you figured out the secret sauce.

I started off in El Porto de Santa Maria, which is right next to Cadiz, one of the famous ships, the Santa Maria from Columbus. Then I went to Madrid, then I toured Europe, and then I came back to Sevilla. But when I was in Europe, I went as far east as Prague, far south as Corfu in Greece at the Pink Palace. You know I went to Amsterdam. I was also in Tangier, Morocco. But here's the skinny-diny, right? I'm 21 years old, couple grand in my pocket, Euro pass, and a backpack. I couldn't call home. This was a collect call at least once a week or a postcard, so I disappeared. But here's what I realized. The parties were there. I mean, all day, every day. But instead of going to the party at 12, 1 or 2 o'clock, I would get up early to go to the ruins, go to the museums, do something.
Figuring Out the Secret Sauce in Communication
But these are golden nuggets. I mean, like I said, I've done my fair share of phone calls and communication studies as well. What you're talking about, Richard, you're right. You it is absolutely clear. You have listened to tens of thousands of calls and analyzed them and found the patterns. Right. There is no question in my mind, my man, the way that you laid it out so eloquently, I just felt like an infant in communication because, I mean, it was well executed. And I think it's really, really cool that that exists and that to find that purity, I think you found it, man. So if anything, you figured out the secret sauce.
Imagination and Innocence: Keys to Future Entrepreneurs
And I think we can not push them into adulthood or to maturity or stress too fast. They don't need to lose their innocence. And still create power and strength right through this. You're creating power and strength, right? Through imagination, play, and innocence. And diversity. All day. Because like you said, the canoe metaphor that you used I think was amazing because... Well, when the canoe starts going sideways, I don't care how many books you read or what information you know, you're going to have to pull on and pull from that amazing imagination and make this work. And I think you will be building the next generation of entrepreneurs with those books. For sure, because that is the rapids that we navigate as entrepreneurs every single day. And in all cases, but definitely as entrepreneurs, for sure.
Reflections on Wisdom and the Telemarketing Industry
I'm the elder around the fireside now telling tales and giving wisdom. And so to me, it was important. You've been to Costa Rica with your wife so many times. You love it here. And you know what it's like to be a guest in the country. And so since I was given such positive reinforcement, it felt right. And since English is my native tongue, I had that sort of leverage. But then again, I could use it to make a career. Do I love this industry? Some parts of it. I enjoy the art of speech. I enjoy the technology. I can't stand the attrition rates. or what Hollywood does to glamorize telemarketing call centers. And there's a lot of misconceptions. And also, you know, it's a grind. The industry can burn people out.
Selling Candy and Life Lessons in a Creepy Van
No, I made a dollar a box. I mean, this guy, and I don't tell this story often, but his name was Ruby. He had a gray van with no windows, the short Chevy van to the creepy one. That sounds so shady. And my mom, I was like, I swear I was 14 maybe. My mom would let me leave with this guy for four hours a night on school nights. And sell candy. and sell caricatures. I did that for East Abington Little League, a box of 100 back in the late 70s. I would knock on the door back and ride on Abington, dollar a thing for the uniforms, but good for you. Well, you're okay now, so obviously nothing bad happened, but for 14 years old, they probably loved you. They probably bought two candy bars. They must have. I did something right, man, but I was just doing it, right? And thanks for asking, by the way. Share a little bit about me, but that particular part of my life, I never thought it would have the impact that it did. It surprised me later on. In fact, surprised me so much, I just had this epiphany, and then I decided to put it on my LinkedIn as one of my jobs.
Straight Shooter: The Basics of Successful Communication
A lot of the times, I like to not be a devil's advocate, but let's be a straight shooter. If somebody only has 400 phone numbers, that's not enough to last the month. Maybe they don't have a script. Maybe the tone of their script is too aggressive. There's no rebuttals in case someone asks a question. No email template, no voicemail template, no pipeline. So I'm going to say, yo, bodies, I mean, this is where we're beginning. And so a lot of the times, it's really working backwards.
Unique Training Methods Using Arcade and Storytelling
I start with dessert first and you know what your favorite class was back in the day. It was recess. Let's call a spade a spade. You were kind enough to mention my, my pastime and my collection of antique pinball machines and retro arcade machines. And so what I like to do prior to the first training class is to have the dozen agents out there in the arcade playing pinball with one another in air hockey. It can reduce their stress. They start bonding through play. They make friends. And then when they're in the training room, they're now contributing more than just absorbing. And I try to do checkpoints with people. I like the triple gun trainings. Just don't give me an answer back, Chad. I'm going to expect you to stand up in front of the class, hold your paper in the left, use your right hand because of illustrators. It gives you another 15% of expression and helps you with your pausing and pacing. And I'm just trying to triple building confidence. But I got something even better for you. When people come in prior to working at the company, they fill out a resume, OK? And they put in all the bells and whistles. But man, that's what everybody does. So I'm going to say, Chad, why don't you turn the paper over and give me three paragraphs of a coming of age moment. I want to see your grammar, your vocabulary in English. I also want to see when you beat up a bully or if you saved a kitten out of a tree or if you happen to do both in one day. Why do I do this? Because I want to see depth. I also want to make a nickname for you. And also on a rainy Wednesday, I want to tell you that you're the kitty saving champ just to give you that second wind and remind you of where you are and where you're going. And so I can separate a lot of people that want to be promoted immediately without showing any sort of merit. I would prefer to have people without any bad habits. They could speak the English. They just don't know a predictive dialer or a CRM. I can teach that in five minutes.

A Transformative Year in Europe
Thank you for bringing that up. That was the best year of my life. I went to college for five years, right? So this was my junior year, then I did senior, super senior. So I went to Europe the fall of 93 through 94. And I stayed in Europe during Christmas break. I didn't come home. So I was there for 11 months. I was 21 at the time, and I lived in Spain. I started off in El Porto de Santa Maria, which is right next to Cadiz, one of the famous ships, the Santa Maria from Columbus. Then I went to Madrid, then I toured Europe, and then I came back to Sevilla. But when I was in Europe, I went as far east as Prague, far south as Corfu in Greece at the Pink Palace. You know I went to Amsterdam. I was also in Tangier, Morocco. But here's the skinny-diny, right? I'm 21 years old, couple grand in my pocket, Euro pass, and a backpack. I couldn't call home. This was a collect call at least once a week or a postcard, so I disappeared. But here's what I realized. The parties were there. I mean, all day, every day. But instead of going to the party at 12, 1 or 2 o'clock, I would get up early to go to the ruins, go to the museums, do something.
Figuring Out the Secret Sauce in Communication
But these are golden nuggets. I mean, like I said, I've done my fair share of phone calls and communication studies as well. What you're talking about, Richard, you're right. You it is absolutely clear. You have listened to tens of thousands of calls and analyzed them and found the patterns. Right. There is no question in my mind, my man, the way that you laid it out so eloquently, I just felt like an infant in communication because, I mean, it was well executed. And I think it's really, really cool that that exists and that to find that purity, I think you found it, man. So if anything, you figured out the secret sauce.
Imagination and Innocence: Keys to Future Entrepreneurs
And I think we can not push them into adulthood or to maturity or stress too fast. They don't need to lose their innocence. And still create power and strength right through this. You're creating power and strength, right? Through imagination, play, and innocence. And diversity. All day. Because like you said, the canoe metaphor that you used I think was amazing because... Well, when the canoe starts going sideways, I don't care how many books you read or what information you know, you're going to have to pull on and pull from that amazing imagination and make this work. And I think you will be building the next generation of entrepreneurs with those books. For sure, because that is the rapids that we navigate as entrepreneurs every single day. And in all cases, but definitely as entrepreneurs, for sure.
Reflections on Wisdom and the Telemarketing Industry
I'm the elder around the fireside now telling tales and giving wisdom. And so to me, it was important. You've been to Costa Rica with your wife so many times. You love it here. And you know what it's like to be a guest in the country. And so since I was given such positive reinforcement, it felt right. And since English is my native tongue, I had that sort of leverage. But then again, I could use it to make a career. Do I love this industry? Some parts of it. I enjoy the art of speech. I enjoy the technology. I can't stand the attrition rates. or what Hollywood does to glamorize telemarketing call centers. And there's a lot of misconceptions. And also, you know, it's a grind. The industry can burn people out.
Selling Candy and Life Lessons in a Creepy Van
No, I made a dollar a box. I mean, this guy, and I don't tell this story often, but his name was Ruby. He had a gray van with no windows, the short Chevy van to the creepy one. That sounds so shady. And my mom, I was like, I swear I was 14 maybe. My mom would let me leave with this guy for four hours a night on school nights. And sell candy. and sell caricatures. I did that for East Abington Little League, a box of 100 back in the late 70s. I would knock on the door back and ride on Abington, dollar a thing for the uniforms, but good for you. Well, you're okay now, so obviously nothing bad happened, but for 14 years old, they probably loved you. They probably bought two candy bars. They must have. I did something right, man, but I was just doing it, right? And thanks for asking, by the way. Share a little bit about me, but that particular part of my life, I never thought it would have the impact that it did. It surprised me later on. In fact, surprised me so much, I just had this epiphany, and then I decided to put it on my LinkedIn as one of my jobs.
Straight Shooter: The Basics of Successful Communication
A lot of the times, I like to not be a devil's advocate, but let's be a straight shooter. If somebody only has 400 phone numbers, that's not enough to last the month. Maybe they don't have a script. Maybe the tone of their script is too aggressive. There's no rebuttals in case someone asks a question. No email template, no voicemail template, no pipeline. So I'm going to say, yo, bodies, I mean, this is where we're beginning. And so a lot of the times, it's really working backwards.
Unique Training Methods Using Arcade and Storytelling
I start with dessert first and you know what your favorite class was back in the day. It was recess. Let's call a spade a spade. You were kind enough to mention my, my pastime and my collection of antique pinball machines and retro arcade machines. And so what I like to do prior to the first training class is to have the dozen agents out there in the arcade playing pinball with one another in air hockey. It can reduce their stress. They start bonding through play. They make friends. And then when they're in the training room, they're now contributing more than just absorbing. And I try to do checkpoints with people. I like the triple gun trainings. Just don't give me an answer back, Chad. I'm going to expect you to stand up in front of the class, hold your paper in the left, use your right hand because of illustrators. It gives you another 15% of expression and helps you with your pausing and pacing. And I'm just trying to triple building confidence. But I got something even better for you. When people come in prior to working at the company, they fill out a resume, OK? And they put in all the bells and whistles. But man, that's what everybody does. So I'm going to say, Chad, why don't you turn the paper over and give me three paragraphs of a coming of age moment. I want to see your grammar, your vocabulary in English. I also want to see when you beat up a bully or if you saved a kitten out of a tree or if you happen to do both in one day. Why do I do this? Because I want to see depth. I also want to make a nickname for you. And also on a rainy Wednesday, I want to tell you that you're the kitty saving champ just to give you that second wind and remind you of where you are and where you're going. And so I can separate a lot of people that want to be promoted immediately without showing any sort of merit. I would prefer to have people without any bad habits. They could speak the English. They just don't know a predictive dialer or a CRM. I can teach that in five minutes.
Richard s journey in the call center space is filled with twists and turns. When he was 27 years old, he relocated to Costa Rica to train employees for one of the larger call centers in San Jose. With a mix of motivational public speaking style backed by tactful and appropriate rhetoric, Richard shared his knowledge and trained over 10 000 bilingual telemarketers.
Mr. Richard Blank holds a bachelors degree in Communication and Spanish from the University of Arizona and a certificate of language proficiency from the University of Sevilla, Spain. A Keynote speaker for Philadelphia's Abington High School 68th National Honors Society induction ceremony. In addition, inducted into the 2023 Hall of Fame for Business. Giving back to Abington Senior High School is very important to Mr. Blank. As such, he endows a scholarship each year for students that plan on majoring in a world language at the university level.

A Transformative Year in Europe
Thank you for bringing that up. That was the best year of my life. I went to college for five years, right? So this was my junior year, then I did senior, super senior. So I went to Europe the fall of 93 through 94. And I stayed in Europe during Christmas break. I didn't come home. So I was there for 11 months. I was 21 at the time, and I lived in Spain. I started off in El Porto de Santa Maria, which is right next to Cadiz, one of the famous ships, the Santa Maria from Columbus. Then I went to Madrid, then I toured Europe, and then I came back to Sevilla. But when I was in Europe, I went as far east as Prague, far south as Corfu in Greece at the Pink Palace. You know I went to Amsterdam. I was also in Tangier, Morocco. But here's the skinny-diny, right? I'm 21 years old, couple grand in my pocket, Euro pass, and a backpack. I couldn't call home. This was a collect call at least once a week or a postcard, so I disappeared. But here's what I realized. The parties were there. I mean, all day, every day. But instead of going to the party at 12, 1 or 2 o'clock, I would get up early to go to the ruins, go to the museums, do something.
Figuring Out the Secret Sauce in Communication
But these are golden nuggets. I mean, like I said, I've done my fair share of phone calls and communication studies as well. What you're talking about, Richard, you're right. You it is absolutely clear. You have listened to tens of thousands of calls and analyzed them and found the patterns. Right. There is no question in my mind, my man, the way that you laid it out so eloquently, I just felt like an infant in communication because, I mean, it was well executed. And I think it's really, really cool that that exists and that to find that purity, I think you found it, man. So if anything, you figured out the secret sauce.
Imagination and Innocence: Keys to Future Entrepreneurs
And I think we can not push them into adulthood or to maturity or stress too fast. They don't need to lose their innocence. And still create power and strength right through this. You're creating power and strength, right? Through imagination, play, and innocence. And diversity. All day. Because like you said, the canoe metaphor that you used I think was amazing because... Well, when the canoe starts going sideways, I don't care how many books you read or what information you know, you're going to have to pull on and pull from that amazing imagination and make this work. And I think you will be building the next generation of entrepreneurs with those books. For sure, because that is the rapids that we navigate as entrepreneurs every single day. And in all cases, but definitely as entrepreneurs, for sure.
Reflections on Wisdom and the Telemarketing Industry
I'm the elder around the fireside now telling tales and giving wisdom. And so to me, it was important. You've been to Costa Rica with your wife so many times. You love it here. And you know what it's like to be a guest in the country. And so since I was given such positive reinforcement, it felt right. And since English is my native tongue, I had that sort of leverage. But then again, I could use it to make a career. Do I love this industry? Some parts of it. I enjoy the art of speech. I enjoy the technology. I can't stand the attrition rates. or what Hollywood does to glamorize telemarketing call centers. And there's a lot of misconceptions. And also, you know, it's a grind. The industry can burn people out.
Selling Candy and Life Lessons in a Creepy Van
No, I made a dollar a box. I mean, this guy, and I don't tell this story often, but his name was Ruby. He had a gray van with no windows, the short Chevy van to the creepy one. That sounds so shady. And my mom, I was like, I swear I was 14 maybe. My mom would let me leave with this guy for four hours a night on school nights. And sell candy. and sell caricatures. I did that for East Abington Little League, a box of 100 back in the late 70s. I would knock on the door back and ride on Abington, dollar a thing for the uniforms, but good for you. Well, you're okay now, so obviously nothing bad happened, but for 14 years old, they probably loved you. They probably bought two candy bars. They must have. I did something right, man, but I was just doing it, right? And thanks for asking, by the way. Share a little bit about me, but that particular part of my life, I never thought it would have the impact that it did. It surprised me later on. In fact, surprised me so much, I just had this epiphany, and then I decided to put it on my LinkedIn as one of my jobs.
Straight Shooter: The Basics of Successful Communication
A lot of the times, I like to not be a devil's advocate, but let's be a straight shooter. If somebody only has 400 phone numbers, that's not enough to last the month. Maybe they don't have a script. Maybe the tone of their script is too aggressive. There's no rebuttals in case someone asks a question. No email template, no voicemail template, no pipeline. So I'm going to say, yo, bodies, I mean, this is where we're beginning. And so a lot of the times, it's really working backwards.
Unique Training Methods Using Arcade and Storytelling
I start with dessert first and you know what your favorite class was back in the day. It was recess. Let's call a spade a spade. You were kind enough to mention my, my pastime and my collection of antique pinball machines and retro arcade machines. And so what I like to do prior to the first training class is to have the dozen agents out there in the arcade playing pinball with one another in air hockey. It can reduce their stress. They start bonding through play. They make friends. And then when they're in the training room, they're now contributing more than just absorbing. And I try to do checkpoints with people. I like the triple gun trainings. Just don't give me an answer back, Chad. I'm going to expect you to stand up in front of the class, hold your paper in the left, use your right hand because of illustrators. It gives you another 15% of expression and helps you with your pausing and pacing. And I'm just trying to triple building confidence. But I got something even better for you. When people come in prior to working at the company, they fill out a resume, OK? And they put in all the bells and whistles. But man, that's what everybody does. So I'm going to say, Chad, why don't you turn the paper over and give me three paragraphs of a coming of age moment. I want to see your grammar, your vocabulary in English. I also want to see when you beat up a bully or if you saved a kitten out of a tree or if you happen to do both in one day. Why do I do this? Because I want to see depth. I also want to make a nickname for you. And also on a rainy Wednesday, I want to tell you that you're the kitty saving champ just to give you that second wind and remind you of where you are and where you're going. And so I can separate a lot of people that want to be promoted immediately without showing any sort of merit. I would prefer to have people without any bad habits. They could speak the English. They just don't know a predictive dialer or a CRM. I can teach that in five minutes.
Richard s journey in the call center space is filled with twists and turns. When he was 27 years old, he relocated to Costa Rica to train employees for one of the larger call centers in San Jose. With a mix of motivational public speaking style backed by tactful and appropriate rhetoric, Richard shared his knowledge and trained over 10 000 bilingual telemarketers.
Mr. Richard Blank holds a bachelors degree in Communication and Spanish from the University of Arizona and a certificate of language proficiency from the University of Sevilla, Spain. A Keynote speaker for Philadelphia's Abington High School 68th National Honors Society induction ceremony. In addition, inducted into the 2023 Hall of Fame for Business. Giving back to Abington Senior High School is very important to Mr. Blank. As such, he endows a scholarship each year for students that plan on majoring in a world language at the university level.

Lyrics
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
All the way from the Outer space
I landed to reign all shit creatures
Invaders, it's the name of the human race
They were born to rain the blood of Neighbors
Same old malice urges you to fight
You're living on unseen prey
Fake gold justice can't change your fate
You're destined to just pray
Pray to Gray
Worship newest ruler
or warships hit your rotten old leaders
Prey on Greed
World needs earnest saviors
but you'll just find a new dictator
(Guitar Solo)
Obey the Gray
It's the price you pay
Obey the Gray
No choice but pray
All the time fight against the same breed
I'm determined to rule these sick inhabitants
Indoctrination no means of stopping the Bleed
They're doomed to ruin by their own device
Same old malice urges you to fight
You're living on unseen prey
Fake gold justice can't change your fate
You're destined to just pray
Pray to Gray
Worship newest ruler
or warships hit your fuckin' old leaders
Prey on Greed
World needs earnest saviors
but you'll just find a new dictator
(Pray to Gray)
Pray to Gray
(Pray to Gray)
Pray to Gray
(Pray to Gray)
Pray to Gray
Pray to
Gray!
[Guitar solo]
Pray to Gray
Worship newest ruler!
Prey on Greed
Hit the fuckin' leaders!
Pray to Gray
I'm a new dictator
No choice
but Pray to Gray!
Entertainment Man Podcast. A fun CEO shares 10 secrets to promote morale with Richard Blank.
Entertainment Man Podcast is the OFFICIAL Podcast of the Founder and Owner of ChrisBOnTheWeb which is 100% Raw and Real and nothing is hidden. He will talk about various types of topics, including past projects that he did on YouTube and including past Podcasts!

Small Production Note: My closing got cut off at the end, my apologies, I'll fix it for next time around.
Chris created ChrisBOnTheWeb more for himself, as a solo project with some help. Larry and Justin jumped on over with him along with The Entertainment Man Talk Show which only lasted only almost 7 months when it went on Hiatus as of after filming the Season 6 Finale. While the hiatus happened, Chris created Everything About Reality TV Podcast which had Hells Kitchen, Survivor, Amazing Race and Big Brother Canada which went to the Audio ONLY side of things later on. Also Chris did vlog style kind of videos for just over 700 consecutive days or tries to. He also had a ChrisBOnTheWeb Behind The Camera like he did on the previous team. End of June 2016, ChrisBOnTheWeb (Chris) decided to part ways from YouTube for the first time.

In this episode, our host, David Lindsay speaks with Richard Blank of Costa Rica's Call Center. CCC is a call center specializing in state of the art BPO telemarketing. Being Based in Costa Rica they supply call center training to all of Central America with bilingual customer service. They are capable of handling and sized BPO and will offer your business a proven method of expanding or staying in contact with your current customers without the stress and added time needed by you in order to hire and train call center telemarketers by yourself.
Phenom Leap Education is constantly staying up to date with the latest research and continually putting the theories into practice. We take our theories and philosophies not just from research but from the hundreds of people we have coached and trained for business, sports and just to have a better life. We help you discover your potential to become your desired self. This will be achieved through educational training and courses that we have mastered, taught and built upon using seminal and pioneering research papers in notable published journals.
Phenom Leap was created to integrate formal education, life experience and theoretical concepts awaiting to be tested. As a result, we hope to offer awareness to those craving to fulfill the missed learning opportunities of yesteryear, those who prefer a somewhat unstructured or unconventional way of learning or those who just wanted a different mix.
Whatever life stage or situation you are at presently, we hope to inspire or challenge you in some small way so that we will be better than we were yesterday. However, we do understand that we’re not for everyone as we all have different pain points- but that’s ok. If you resonate with what we do, we hope you’ll support us, by reading a post or two, making a comment or suggestion (even if you don’t resonate with us). This will be greatly appreciated as it will help us improve because learning, like a dialogue, requires the transfer of energy in-formation both ways.
Ultimately, our goal is to create a system or set of processes that will help our own children as they grow up to navigate beyond the information age by equipping them with the mindset, methodologies, skills and knowledge to become who they desire to be.

In this episode, our host, David Lindsay speaks with Richard Blank of Costa Rica's Call Center. CCC is a call center specializing in state of the art BPO telemarketing. Being Based in Costa Rica they supply call center training to all of Central America with bilingual customer service. They are capable of handling and sized BPO and will offer your business a proven method of expanding or staying in contact with your current customers without the stress and added time needed by you in order to hire and train call center telemarketers by yourself.
Phenom Leap Education is constantly staying up to date with the latest research and continually putting the theories into practice. We take our theories and philosophies not just from research but from the hundreds of people we have coached and trained for business, sports and just to have a better life. We help you discover your potential to become your desired self. This will be achieved through educational training and courses that we have mastered, taught and built upon using seminal and pioneering research papers in notable published journals.
Phenom Leap was created to integrate formal education, life experience and theoretical concepts awaiting to be tested. As a result, we hope to offer awareness to those craving to fulfill the missed learning opportunities of yesteryear, those who prefer a somewhat unstructured or unconventional way of learning or those who just wanted a different mix.
Whatever life stage or situation you are at presently, we hope to inspire or challenge you in some small way so that we will be better than we were yesterday. However, we do understand that we’re not for everyone as we all have different pain points- but that’s ok. If you resonate with what we do, we hope you’ll support us, by reading a post or two, making a comment or suggestion (even if you don’t resonate with us). This will be greatly appreciated as it will help us improve because learning, like a dialogue, requires the transfer of energy in-formation both ways.
Ultimately, our goal is to create a system or set of processes that will help our own children as they grow up to navigate beyond the information age by equipping them with the mindset, methodologies, skills and knowledge to become who they desire to be.
