Shark Tank’s Barbara Corcoran Special Guest on The Deanne Demarco Show

“Shark Tank” star Barbara Corcoran is the special featured guest on the next edition of Deanne DeMarco’s radio show. The program, “Today’s Inspiring Women,” airs noon Pacific on Thursday on the VoiceAmerica’s Radio Network.

Phoenix, AZ, June 13, 2013 – Deanne DeMarco’s special guest for her high-energy radio show is one of the most high-profile businesswomen in America—Barbara Corcoran of ABC’s hit TV show, “Shark Tank.”

Barbara joins Deanne Demarco on next Thursday’s episode of “Today’s Inspiring Women,” the uplifting and entertaining hour-long show which airs weekly at 12 noon Pacific on the VoiceAmerica Empowerment Radio network, Thursday, June 20, 2013 http://www.voiceamerica.com/show/2182/todays-inspiring-women

Barbara Corcoran’s credentials include straight D’s in high school and college and twenty jobs by the time she turned twenty-three. It was her next job that would make her one of the most successful entrepreneurs in the country when she took a $1,000 loan to start The Corcoran Group. She parlayed the loan into a multi-billion-dollar business, the biggest real estate empire in New York.

As one of the “Sharks” on “Shark Tank,” Barbara has ponied up her own money and invested in more than a dozen businesses, competing to make those deals for all to see, then shepherding them to success.

Her newest book, “Shark Tales: How I Turned $1,000 Into a Billion Dollar Business,” takes you behind the scenes of her life and business and her ‘seen on TV’ venture capitalism. Her previous best-seller was titled, “If You Don’t Have Big Breasts, Put Ribbons on Your Pigtails: And Other Lessons I Learned from My Mother.”

Barbara is famously brash and blunt, bold and courageous, and a brilliant identifier of opportunity and talent that is often invisible to others.

Deanne DeMarco asks Barbara about the early days of her career and gets her best advice for starting, growing, and expanding businesses, and converting ideas and “dreams” into fortunes. She seeks for Barbara’s advice for building a personal brand and the importance of bringing fun into the business day. And, of course, she gets Barbara to reveal some “Shark Tank” behind the scenes stories.

Deanne DeMarco, who has 20 successful years as a business coach, speech coach and keynote speaker ( http://www.Breaking-Boundaries.com) , said, “Each week I interview extraordinary and inspiring women who may not be household names but are business and entrepreneurial rising stars. For this show I’m delighted to have one of the best-known businesswomen in America share time with me and my audience.”

The special guest for the second half of Deanne DeMarco’s show is Deanne herself!
Deanne has used innovative strategies—drawn from successful experiences as a scientist, college instructor, management trainer, Fortune 500 manager, author and entrepreneur—to help business executives and individuals break through personal and career roadblocks.

This week she talks about coaching. What is it? What are the benefits? What’s the difference between coaching, mentoring, training and counseling? How do you know if you need a coach? And much, much more—including the two-minute business coaching challenge, and the two-minute personal coaching challenge.
