Brady and a colleague work through Hanayama puzzles at the 2020 PCA Expo, discussing frustration and problem-solving strategies. They use the puzzles as an analogy for business challenges, with a mention of Bookkeepers for Painters.
All right, Brady, how does this puzzle make you feel? Frustrated.
Okay.
Frustrated.
How does it make you feel now?
Can I just take this?
No more worries.
You want to switch? We could. We could switch. I feel so much better right now.
He's up for a challenge. He's up for a challenge every time. But we like these. We like having these puzzles because we like to demonstrate about how you— everyone struggles with puzzles in their business and some of them you can just hand off. Sometimes puzzles are not about being able to find the solution on your own, but about know where to look for the answers. And another thing about these puzzles in particular, the Hanayama puzzles, are that even when you know the solutions, they're still not that easy to fix. So when you're tired of puzzles in your basement, you can hand those off and we'll take care of them for you.
You just call Bookkeepers for Painters and they will help you.
Yes, and then sit you down at a scary puzzle and tell you that you don't get to leave and have lunch until it's done. Absolutely.
