The crypto markets have been battered over the past several weeks with Bitcoin sinking from six-figure highs to the low-$80Ks, more than a trillion dollars wiped from crypto's total market cap and record ETF outflows shaking investor sentiment. Unlike previous drawdowns triggered by blow-ups or bad actors, this downturn is different: It's macro-driven, liquidity-driven and deeply tied to broader global markets.In this episode of Byte-Sized Insight we hear from the author of “Crypto is Macro Now,” Noelle Acheson; co-founder and CEO of LO:TECH, Tim Meggs; and author of “The Crypto Trader,” Glen Goodman, to help break down the forces behind the volatility and offer clear, grounded perspective for navigating the turbulence.(0:24) Bitcoin plunges from $120K to $80K and the market wipes out $1.2 trillion(1:08) Why this downturn feels different from past crashes(2:55) Noelle Acheson explains why the dip is “a blip” and liquidity-driven(3:52) How macro sentiment, not crypto-specific issues, is driving this correction(4:59) Why this drawdown isn't systemic like 2017 or 2022(6:03) Bitcoin dominance drops during the downturn and why that's never happened before(7:38) Noelle breaks down “short-term noise vs. long-term debasement thesis”(10:28) Tim Meggs: Why this drawdown is slow, measured, and institution-driven(12:05) Inside the market: What liquidity providers look for during stress (13:22) Signs of stabilization and why healthy corrections matter(15:41) Glen Goodman: How institutional money changed the structure of crypto cycles(20:34) Why today's downturn lacks a narrative and why that weakens crypto rallies(23:04) Survival rules: managing leverage, mental resilience & “reduce to the sleeping point”This episode was hosted and produced by Savannah Fortis, @savannah_fortis.Follow Cointelegraph on X @Cointelegraph.Check out Cointelegraph at cointelegraph.com.If you like what you heard, rate us and leave a review!The views, thoughts and opinions expressed in this podcast are its participants alone and do not necessarily reflect or represent the views and opinions of Cointelegraph.

What does it really take to build a personal brand business from scratch? In this episode, I'm sitting down with Faith Chang from Leadership Moxie—a former Badass Empires client who went from juggling three jobs (belly dance instructor, leadership trainer, and expat career coach) to building a focused, profitable coaching business that generated over $80K in just seven months. But this isn't one of those glossy success stories. This is the real, messy, behind-the-scenes truth about what it takes to niche down when you're multi-talented, how to transition from trading time for money to building something scalable, and the gutsy decisions you have to make along the way. Faith shares the moment she fired a $35K client (yes, you read that right), how she finally chose her niche after exploring belly dancing for executives, cross-cultural coaching, and everything in between, and what it's actually like to go from undercharging to premium pricing. If you're a multi-passionate person drowning in possibilities, a hustler who can't seem to say no, or someone who's building a business while trying to protect your energy and your family—this conversation is for you.

So, jetzt geht's zum Flughafen. Cooler Nachmittag, viele alte Bekannte, neue Leute – und unfassbar viele KI-Agenten. Alle plötzlich KI-Spezialisten. Vor einem Jahr machten sie etwas völlig anderes. Aber gut, man kann sich ja umpositionieren. Frankfurt: großartiger Ort, abends richtig schöner Ausblick. Und ja – viele erzählen, mit KI laufe alles „von alleine". Wenn es so einfach wäre. Ich arbeite viel mit KI, aber manche, die vor wenigen Wochen noch keinen Plan hatten, wollen jetzt „ultimative" Lösungen verkaufen. Ohne Vertrauen, ohne Bedarfsanalyse. Einige wollten 5K, 10K, einer sogar 80K haben. Bei Nachfrage, wie erfolgreich sie selbst sind: Funkstille. Andere wollten mir „20 Abnehmen" verkaufen, natürlich sofort entscheiden, kein Angebot schicken. Mein „Nein, danke" hat sie beleidigt. Aber: Ultimativ ist nur eines – der Tod. Mehrmals hörte ich: „Du kannst ganz viel Geld machen." – „Kennst du mich überhaupt?" – „Nein, aber jeder kann." Wenn es jeder kann, glaube ich es nicht. Also habe ich mich da rausgezogen. Warum werden Menschen nicht geschult? Warum so viele „Ähm, ähm"-Verkäufer? Jeder weiß: Erst Bedarf klären, dann Angebot. Auf der Messe sprechen mich Opener an, wollen Gespräche aufdrängen. Ich sage klar: Schickt mir eine Mail, zeigt mir Bausteine und Preise. Ich verschwende keine Lebenszeit. Wir haben rund 720.000 Stunden – jede Stunde zählt. Im VIP-Raum wollte einer quatschen. Ich: „Sorry, keine Zeit." Nicht unhöflich, nur ehrlich. Ein wertschätzender Einstieg wäre etwas anderes gewesen. Viele sehen Events wie Jagdgebiete: „Wir sind hier, um Kunden zu schießen." Absurd. Kunden schießt man nicht – sie entwickeln sich von Fremden zu Bekannten, Kunden, Freunden. Andere drücken Prospekte in die Hand. Ich muss gar nichts. Viele sind einfach Zeitdiebe. Es braucht Mut, Nein zu sagen. Die meisten haben diesen Mut nicht. Aber: Du musst nicht Everybody's Darling sein. Der wichtigste Mensch, dessen Liebling du sein musst, bist du selbst. Zeit ist das wertvollste Gut. Manche wollen „quatschen" – ich nicht. Wenn ich quatsche, suche ich mir die Menschen aus. Lebenszeit rinnt durch die Finger. Wichtig ist: Was willst du wirklich im Leben erreichen? Zu Beauty und Wellness: Danke für die vielen Kommentare! Ich liebe es, Menschen Chancen zu geben, sich dort ein Einkommen aufzubauen. Das macht Spaß – im Gegensatz zu sinnlosem Gerede. Einsam sitze ich nie. Ich komme gut mit mir klar. Einsamkeit entsteht, wenn man keine Aufgabe hat. Ich liebe die Zeit mit mir selbst. Fernsehen? Zeitdieb. Jetzt gleich Terminal 1. Ich treffe meinen Freund Oliver Scholl. Er hat mich über meinen Podcast kennengelernt – bald 3000 Folgen. Hat Seminare besucht, VIP-Coaching gemacht, riesige Schritte umgesetzt. Heute fliegen wir in die Wärme. Schreib mal in die Kommentare, wohin du glaubst, dass es geht. Darum geht's im Leben: umsetzen, Vollgas geben, keine Zeit verlieren. Lebenszeit – das Wertvollste. Jetzt einchecken. Alles Liebe, schönen Abend.

In this episode, we explore why Bitcoin may have slipped back toward the $80K level, examining leverage washouts, ETF rotation, funding-rate resets, and how broader risk sentiment is shifting as markets reassess year-end liquidity. On the AI side, Nvidia posted another record-breaking revenue quarter, with demand for GPU compute still outpacing supply, even as Hugging Face CEO Clem Delangue warns that the real bubble sits in oversized LLMs rather than in AI as a whole, suggesting a move toward smaller, domain-specific models. We close by breaking down the latest Chart of the Week and jobs numbers, what they may signal for inflation trends, and how they may tie into both crypto and AI market momentum heading into the new year.

In this Artistry & Influencer episode of Where Brains Meet Beauty, content creators Jess Martinez (@jessstheblessed) and Kirti Tewani (@kirtitewani) share what it really looks like to build a career online while staying grounded offline.Jess calls herself an “accidental creator.” After casually posting hair videos, one went viral - 46 million views in under three weeks, while she was still working full-time in criminal justice. The sudden visibility was thrilling and disorienting, but with support and boundaries, she found a rhythm: mission-driven work by day, creativity by night. Kirti's journey began after motherhood made the long, unpredictable schedule of makeup artistry unsustainable. During the pandemic she launched a supplement brand, posted on TikTok for marketing, and unexpectedly went viral. She soon gained 80K followers in a month, then jumped from 4K to 120K on Instagram in a week.Both now navigate two worlds - the everyday one and the digital one. To stay centered, they set firm boundaries. Jess keeps work and content separate and even created a “So You Want to Start a Business” group at her agency to manage questions. Kirti refuses all family-based partnerships, keeping her kids fully offline for their safety and privacy, even when turning down major money.Their advice for creators: slow down, learn the craft, trust your intuition and stop chasing comparison. Growth does not need to be rocket-fast to be meaningful. Jess reframes consistency as a habit that builds over time. Kirti uses data to improve content without compromising her values.Their message for brands: give creators creative freedom. Kirti's community recognizes her in a simple black tank top, forcing a neon look makes the content feel less authentic. Jess rejects rigid scripts that don't sound like her voice. And both prefer opt-in PR over surprise boxes at the door.Together, they show that influence is not about going viral, it's about boundaries, integrity and building a career that feels true to who you are.If you are a creator trying to navigate your own boundaries or a brand trying to build better partnerships, this episode is full of nuance and real talk from two women who live it every day.

→ CLICK HERE to claim that free audit! Your content isn't boring. It's just not activating dopamine. I had a client go from $12K to $80K+ months. What changed? Her content started triggering dopamine, and people became obsessed. They'd binge 10-15 posts in a row, watch all her story highlights, then apply, ready to buy. No objections. Just "when can we start?" In this episode, I'm breaking down the neuroscience of why your content doesn't convert, how to trigger dopamine through anticipation loops (not curiosity loops), and the micro-commitment ladder that primes people to buy before they ever talk to you. Plus, I'll walk you through real examples from my own content that generated $360K+ in applications, and show you exactly how to audit your content right now to see if it's activating dopamine or just educating without converting. The difference between content that gets views and content that gets buyers is dopamine. If people aren't binging your content and showing up to calls pre-sold, this episode is for you.

Points of Interest00:00 – Introduction: Marcel welcomes recurring guest Carson Pierce to the Agency Profit Podcast and introduces a new format—walking through a real, anonymized client assessment to show how Parakeeto diagnoses and solves profitability challenges.02:00 – Every Agency's Problems Are Unique but Familiar: Carson explains that while every agency's situation feels unique, most share a few core underlying problems that manifest differently based on team structure, services, and culture.03:40 – Client Background: The featured firm had around 12 staff, close to $1M in revenue, but was losing roughly $80K per year. Despite solid demand, they couldn't pinpoint the source of their declining profit.05:00 – Early Misdiagnoses and Attempts: The leadership team suspected overhead costs like health insurance and software were to blame and tried tightening internal processes, but those adjustments didn't solve the deeper financial issues.06:30 – Leadership Misalignment: With multiple co-founders holding different perspectives, the agency struggled to align on the root cause of its issues, each assuming the problem lay outside their area of expertise.10:00 – Starting the Assessment: Carson outlines Parakeeto's assessment process—benchmarking against a healthy “agency model,” ingesting financial and time data, and identifying gaps between planned and actual performance.11:50 – Payroll Red Flag: Analysis revealed that 98% of all revenue was going directly to payroll, leaving no margin for overhead or profit—a clear signal of structural imbalance.13:30 – Data Gaps and Adjustments: The team had poor time-tracking compliance and a prepaid revenue entry on the P&L that skewed results. Parakeeto corrected these to reveal a more accurate financial picture.16:30 – Root Causes Identified: The agency was top-heavy with overhead roles, under-utilized due to a bottlenecked design team, and priced below the level their delivery costs required.20:30 – Building the Roadmap: Quick wins included improving time-tracking compliance and reclassifying project management and account management as billable delivery hours. Longer-term actions included hiring a designer, raising prices 10–15%, and training PMs in scope management.25:50 – Strategic Choice: Grow, Don't Cut: Instead of downsizing, the founders chose to grow out of the constraint—adding delivery capacity to balance the team and improve utilization since demand existed.28:40 – Coaching and Next Steps: Carson explains the ongoing coaching plan—educating on data hygiene, improving utilization, then progressing to deeper ABR and project-level analysis—focusing first on leading indicators before tracking lagging outcomes.Show NotesConnect with Carson via LinkedInFree Agency ToolkitParakeeto Foundations CourseFree access to our Model PlatformLove the PodcastLeave us a review here.

What if you could turn a $5K/month business into $80K/month in under a year? That’s exactly what Chan Yuenenyi did. In this episode, Jaryd Krause chats with the founder and CEO of EssayGrader AI—the world’s leading AI grading platform trusted by over 100,000 educators. When Chan bought the business, it was generating only $5,000 per month. Fast-forward less than a year later, and he’d scaled it to $80,000/month, hitting $1M in annual recurring revenue. But here’s the twist: Chan didn’t chase shiny tactics or massive ad budgets.He used precision. Systems. Deep understanding of what users actually need. Before founding EssayGrader AI, Chan managed a billion-dollar product line at OpenText. So, he knew one thing most first-time buyers miss—buying a business is easy. Growing one takes vision.

I used to wake up before dawn to milk cows, spend all day running kids around and doing farm work, then collapse exhausted every single night. Sunrise to sunset - and still no money left at the end of the year. If you're working that hard but there's still nothing left... I need you to stop what you're doing and listen to this episode right now. I mean it. I just got off a coaching call with a farmer who was doing ALL the right things: Amazing website. Farmers market every Saturday. School partnerships. Food pantries. Multiple product sizes. On paper, she looked like she had it figured out. But here's what was actually happening - she was stuck at $80K and couldn't break through. No matter how hard she worked. The problem wasn't that she wasn't doing enough. The problem is she was doing TOO MUCH. In this episode, you'll hear: Why selling chicken, beef, AND pork actually STOPS you from having money leftover at the end of the year The "Scatter Trap" and how it keeps farmers broke - so just know that The "Rule of One" that gets you profitable faster than anything else (most farmers get this totally wrong) The simple fix that helped farmers go from stuck to sold out Here's what changed everything: One product. One sales channel. Consistent effort in ONE direction. That's it. You'll hear the actual coaching call - the breakthroughs, the "aha" moments, the relief when this farmer realized she could let things GO and actually make money. Bottom line: You don't need to do more. You need to do LESS.

Send us a textA month after Canfranc, the dust has settled but the stories still sting—sometimes literally. We sat down with Team USA leaders Paul Kirsch and Tom Hooper to unpack a world championship defined by raw terrain, tight logistics, and athletes who found another gear when it mattered most. If you watched the medals, you saw the headlines. If you listen here, you'll hear the blueprint.We start where results are made: planning. Paul and Tom pull back the curtain on selection debates, athlete travel, hotel puzzles, kit approvals, and an aid station operation designed for seconds, not comfort. Imagine three staff crewing a dozen athletes off a single table while frost slicks the rocks, ground wasps erupt near the trail, and two bulls jog past a sunrise checkpoint. That's the reality of world-level trail—messy, improvised, and relentlessly precise.From there we dig into racing. The long and short trail routes tilted skyward and technical, but champions like Jim Walmsley and Katie Schide still rose, proving that range and resilience travel across terrain. Hillary Gerardi stepped from VK to 80K to keep the team whole. Short trail newcomers like Jane and Ruby showed composure well beyond their caps. The vertical and classic squads highlighted rising stars—Anna Gibson, Cam Smith—and real team tactics, with athletes working together late to lock in points, cross-country style. Meanwhile, U20 athletes arrived with true mountain chops, signaling a pipeline ready to meet a deeper, more global field that now includes full squads from Uganda and Kenya and breakthrough team medals from nations like Canada.We also talk about the gap that still holds the sport back: brand buy-in. Many athletes earn no bonuses for worlds and must choose between country and paycheck. With more sponsor support—following models we already see in track and the Olympics—world championships could become the premier stage they deserve to be. South Africa is next, and with the right mix of citizen races, media, and partners, the scene could match the spectacle.Hit play for a candid, inside look at how Team USA turned chaos into podiums and why the future of mountain and trail running has never looked brighter.

How much passive income would you need to retire early? $60K/year? $80K/year? $100K/year? What if you could build a financially freeing passive income stream in just five years? Five years from now, you could retire early, quit your job, or keep building wealth. What would that freedom feel like? Joe Hammel has already achieved it, using a simplistic, beginner-friendly “bread and butter” rental strategy. Today, he's generating $115,000/year in pure cash flow from his rentals, just five years after buying his first rental. In this episode, Joe shares exactly how he grew his six-figure passive income stream and the exact blueprint you can use to replicate it. Joe invests in a market that real estate investors used to laugh at—Detroit. However, the tables are now turning, as Detroit continues to see solid appreciation, cash flow, and affordable prices. Joe buys houses for $100,000 (yes, even today), often using the “slow BRRRR strategy”, and rents them out for well above his costs. He says out-of-state investors can do this easily as well, and he has helped dozens repeat his system. This could be your path to achieving financial freedom in under a decade, just like Joe! In This Episode We Cover The “bread and butter” rentals beginners can buy to build passive income streams Why Joe says Detroit is such a solid real estate investing market (especially now) Using the “slow BRRRR” method to build wealth faster and increase your equity The best rental property types to target (for beginner investors, especially!) How to invest in affordable markets even if you live hours away And So Much More!

Jamie I.F. talks about what it was like losing $80K a month in affiliate revenue, rebuilding from the ground up, and what keyword research really looks like in the age of AI. He is a former affiliate SEO who once scaled to $80,000 per month before the HCU update brought that down to nearly zero. Now, Jamie focuses on building software for SEOs and other niches. One of his tools, Answer Socrates, helps bloggers generate thousands of topic ideas and cluster them into organized groups so they can focus on the fun part: writing. By leveraging SEO, Jamie has grown the tool to over 100K monthly users and has also found creative ways to drive traffic through platforms like Reddit. Jamie shares the wild ride from skyrocketing affiliate earnings to starting over after Google's updates. He teaches us how to approach keyword research differently in the AI era, how Reddit is reshaping SEO, and why feelings, not just facts, win traffic today. Key points discussed include: Affiliate highs and lows: One decision brought in $80K a month, but it all disappeared overnight, showing how fragile affiliate-heavy models have become in today's SEO world. Products over pure info: Relying only on informational content is riskier than ever, but turning expertise into products can safeguard your business from AI scrapers and shifting algorithms. Keyword depth wins: Ranking for just one keyword is no longer enough, and covering a range of related subtopics builds the topical authority needed to compete. Clustering made simple: Grouping hundreds of keywords into meaningful clusters makes it easier to plan content strategically without drowning in data. AI overviews explained: Google and ChatGPT pull from multiple sources, and structuring content clearly increases the chances of being featured in those summaries. Reddit power: Reddit now dominates search results, and thoughtful participation can drive traffic, spark PR coverage, and strengthen brand visibility. Make people feel: Optimization helps, but content that stirs emotion keeps readers engaged and loyal even when AI-generated summaries crowd the search results. Connect with Jamie I.F. Website

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1154: Ford gets creative to close Q3 with a subprime rate push on F-150s. New Jersey locks in fair pay for techs doing recall work. And Chick-fil-A jumps into the specialty drink race with a fresh new concept.Show Notes with links:Ford is making a bold push to close Q3 strong by offering promotional interest rates to subprime borrowers—an unusual but calculated move that underscores growing affordability challenges in the new vehicle market.The deal, ending this month, allows buyers with credit scores below 620 to access the same low rates typically reserved for prime borrowers.Ford is targeting this incentive to move more F-150 pickups, which now range from $39K to nearly $80K.With average monthly payments nearing $750 and interest rates at 6.4%, the brand sees affordability as a top barrier to closing deals.Extended terms of 72–84 months are increasingly common, and Ford's finance arm says only 3–4% of its 2024 loans qualify as “higher risk.”“We wanted to provide the opportunity to those with credit ratings that may not be perfect,” a Ford spokesperson said. “This could help offset rising monthly payments.”New legislation in New Jersey is giving dealership service departments a major boost—ensuring fair pay for recall and warranty work while holding automakers more accountable.The “Motor Vehicle Open Recall Notice and Fair Compensation Act” takes effect April 2026.Manufacturers must reimburse at retail labor rates, not discounted warranty rates.Automakers must also pay 1.5% monthly of book value for any “stop sale” or “do not drive” recall units sitting on lots.Illinois saw an annual $249M increase in warranty payouts after passing similar legislation.“This legislation represents a critical step forward… and ensures that automakers fairly compensate those who fix their mistakes,” said NJ CAR President Laura Perrotta.Chick-fil-A is entering the specialty drink wars with a new concept called Daybright, a standalone beverage-focused brand launching near Atlanta later this fall.Daybright will feature smoothies, cold-pressed juices, and specialty coffees—no chicken sandwiches here.Operated by Chick-fil-A's innovation arm, Red Wagon Ventures, the concept joins earlier spin-offs like Little Blue Menu and Pennycake.The new brand enters a booming beverage space already being chased by McDonald's, Taco Bell, and Wendy's.Competitors like 7 Brew and Dutch Bros have seen triple-digit growth as Gen Z flocks to drink-first concepts.0:00 Intro with Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier1:07 Huge Launch Announcement at MoreThanCars.com2:20 ASOTU Edge Webinar TODAY at 2PM on Cost-Cutting3:10 Ford Offers Low Rates To Sub-Prime Buyers5:29 New Jersey MandJoin Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Most recruitment firms stall at $1M revenue. Greg Fischer broke through by building a high-retention offshore team, embedding himself inside client organizations with RPO, and using LinkedIn commenting as a smarter BD strategy. As Co-Owner of AMI Network, Greg scaled from $1M to $4.2M revenue and $1.4M profit sustaining 30–40% margins. His model: hire offshore staff directly, integrate them as equals, and use a 2:1 sourcer-to-recruiter ratio to free recruiters to bill more. Alongside that, he mastered RPO pricing, transforming a $30K placement into a $1.5M account. Today, as founder of Well Oiled Machine, Greg helps other firms replicate this approach. In this episode, he shares how to structure offshore teams for 85%+ retention, qualify RPO opportunities, and win clients through LinkedIn commenting. Episode Outline and Highlights 6:42 From solo founder's first hire to 40-person team. 7:40 Breaking the $1M ceiling with offshore hiring after failed BPOs. 12:37 Why sourcing was the first offshore function and how it lifted billings. 23:18 Landing a $50K/month RPO by reframing a client's hiring challenge. 28:07 How that grew into an $80K/month RPO account with 30–40% margins. 30:45 When to pitch RPO: the minimum job volume that makes it viable. 33:47 The “open + close” fee model that stabilized cash flow. 36:23 How a 2:1 sourcer-to-recruiter ratio frees recruiters to bill more. 39:08 Why most agencies fail with offshore—and how to do it right. 47:19 Choosing the right country: Mexico vs Philippines vs South Africa. 54:51 Greg's daily LinkedIn commenting routine that built an inbound pipeline. Key Takeaways Offshore Done Right Fuels Scale Greg's agency was stuck at $1M for four years. BPOs failed, freelancers flaked. The breakthrough came when he hired offshore staff directly, trained them thoroughly, and treated them as equals. Within three years, AMI scaled to $4M+ revenue with 30–40% profit margins and 85% retention. Offshore wasn't a cheap fix; it was the lever that freed recruiters to focus on revenue-driving work. The RPO Question That Unlocks Recurring Revenue A referral asked for an internal recruiter. Greg's partner asked: “Why now?” The answer—50 hires in six months—turned a $30K placement into a $50K/month retainer that ran three years, worth $1.5M. His rule: RPO only works with 5–10 requisitions/month and $15K+ revenue. Anything less is contingent search. Over time, he moved to an “open fee + closed fee” model that kept revenue flowing and profit margins at 30–40%. LinkedIn Strategic Commenting Works Greg built AMI Network through cold outbound. For Well Oiled Machine, he went another route: commenting daily on posts from 60 recruitment thought leaders. Thirty minutes before posting, thirty minutes after. The results? Comments hitting 20,000+ impressions—often outperforming original posts. On LinkedIn, comments are content, and for agency owners this is a repeatable, low-cost BD strategy that beats cold calling. Greg Fischer Bio and Contact Info Greg is the former Co-Owner of AMI Network, a healthcare recruitment agency that did $1.4M in Profit on just $4.2M in revenue. His secret? 18 of his 40 team members were Offshore high-performing employees, with annual retention over 85%.
