Episode 066: Judy Robinett – Creating A Titanium Digital Rolodex: The 5+50+150 Rule I would like to thank John Corcoran for introducing me to Judy Robinett. Both John and Judy are such great givers… Always trying to help others and they’ve done so much for me. I was fascinated with Judy. She is incredibly intelligent and is a very deep thinker. It was a joy to get her to put some of those thoughts on tape for this great podcast episode.
