The idea germinated with a conversation with someone who was purchasing a high-end projector and wished someone could inspect it for him, and Robin and team have built an international company serving the US, Australia, Canada, the UK and Puerto Rico. Seems like WeGoLook is on its way to global domination. Robin was a pleasure to speak with. Sure, she is focused on “global domination” for WeGoLook, but we spend a lot of time talking about the team and how much pride she has in her colleagues with some really heart-warming stories. She’s a true leader, motivator, and inspiration. **CONNECT WITH ROBIN SMITH: **[Email](https://insnerds.com/insights/robin@wegolook.com) [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/in/wegolookrobin/) [WeGoLook Homepage](https://wegolook.com/) **DISCUSSED IN THE PODCAST: **[Wrike](https://www.wrike.com/vm/?utm_expid=75732941-97.JUpGMrzTREiJpOTrzMpZ_g.1&utm_referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2F) Software [Google Suite](https://gsuite.google.com/) The book: [Essentialism](https://www.amazon.com/Essentialism-Disciplined-Pursuit-Greg-McKeown-ebook/dp/B00G1J1D28/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1507499297&sr=8-1&keywords=essentialism) ### About Nicholas Lamparelli Nick Lamparelli is a 20+ year veteran of the insurance wars.
