    Collaboration with Chuck Anderson, Dave Jackson & Tim Lewis #524
    Jun 19 2025
    On this episode of GoalChat, host Debra Eckerling talks about collaboration with podcasters and entrepreneurs Chuck Anderson, EventAffiliates.com; Dave Jackson, School of Podcasting; and Tim Lewis, Stoneham Press. Collaboration comes in many forms from summits to podcasts to books. One of the best things about collaborations is they can be the launching point for other endeavors. Chuck, Dave, and Tim share how they define collaboration, their favorite types of collaborations, tools, and more. Goals - Chuck: Reach out to someone you know - and haven't communicated with in a while - and set up a time to talk - Tim: To grow your connections, find a Facebook Group or LinkedIn community; post/interact - Dave: Take the list you have of things you are going to start, and spend 15 minutes working on one of the things Final Thoughts - Tim: Collaboration is good; you can achieve a lot when you work with others - Chuck: There's no obstacle too big to overcome; you may be just one collaboration away from helping each other achieve success - Dave: Don't hesitate to reach out to your dream collaborator, just because you think they are too big to want to work with you. Also remember, sometimes a "no" is actually "not right now" Learn More About Chuck Anderson: ChuckAndersonCoaching.com Dave Jackson: SchoolofPodcasting.com Tim Lewis: StonehamPress.com Debra Eckerling: TheDEBMethod.com/blog 52SecretsBook.com Learn more about your ad choices.
