On the 238th episode of the GreatBase Tennis podcast, Steve Smith, Dave Anderson, and Ivan Ozerets interview Brandon Fallon. Their guest lives in SoCal (San Juan Capistrano, California) with his wife and two daughters. He currently is the assistant director of the Laguna Nigel Racquet Club.From a tennis point of view, you name it and Brandon Fallon has done it. The following list might serve as an outline to cover parts of his journey: Starting out with no connections in tennis, being a top five junior in arguably the US's toughest section, playing division I college tennis, playing French tournaments, playing German club tennis, pursuing a world ranking, coaching in college, working over a decade with competitive juniors at an academy, then offering A2Z programs and services for players of all ages and abilities.He also served in a leadership role with the USPTA (now RSPA). Brandon shares how he made the transition from being in junior development to being in club and country club management. During their conversation, a special emphasis is also put on one of Brandon's specialities, running social events.If and when he writes his autobiography, an appropriate testimonial would be: Big smile, big personality, big heart and someone who is great for tennis in a big way.

On the 185th episode of the GreatBase Tennis podcast, Steve Smith and Ivan Ozerets have a conversation with Luis Perez. Their guest is a tennis teaching professional who is based in London, England.Luis stumbled upon the free educational tennis content provided on the Internet by GBT. From there, his intellectual curiosity and thirst for knowledge compelled him to travel across the Atlantic to spend a week at the Wintergreen Resort in Wintergreen, Virginia. Luis, who traveled with one of his students, was grateful to be treated as both a player and coach. Even though their visit was just one week, the two Londoners experienced A2Z. They were off the grid at a beautiful mountainside resort and were able to not only have their games analyzed but also study matchplay from the Aussie Open to the Les Petits to the UCLA campus. Students of the game who have an in-person experience with GBT will find that when they re-visit our content, their overall understanding will be greatly enhanced.We are confident that Luis's story will be inspirational to those who love the game of tennis.

In this episode of Status Check with Spivey, Mike continues his conversation with Dean Sarah Zearfoss (also known as "Dean Z"), who in her role as Senior Assistant Dean at the University of Michigan Law School has overseen the admissions office for the past 23 years. Dean Z also hosts the popular law school admissions podcast A2Z with Dean Z. In this second episode of the series, Mike and Dean Z discuss the future of law school admissions (as it relates to the recent Supreme Court decision on race-conscious admissions and in terms of other recent legal education-related developments such as ChatGPT), then they talk about other common admissions topics/questions that tend to come up at the start of a new cycle (including chance predictor websites, how law schools interpret GPAs/undergraduate transcripts, and more).

In this episode of Status Check with Spivey, Mike has a conversation with Dean Sarah Zearfoss (also known as "Dean Z"), who, in her role as Senior Assistant Dean at the University of Michigan Law School, has overseen the admissions office for the past 23 years. Dean Z also hosts the popular law school admissions podcast A2Z with Dean Z. In the interview, Mike and Dean Z discuss whether popular law school admissions advice is "overrated or underrated," including applying early, retaking the LSAT, making choices based on the new rankings, visiting law schools, and typos in applications (they agree about most, but engage in some debate about others). Then they answer some questions from Reddit about "Why X" essays, addressing "why law" in your application, applying as an international student, LSAT scores from 5+ years ago, second bachelor's degrees, and leaving application questions bank. Mike and Dean Z mention My Rank in this episode, a free tool for applicants to make their own customized law school rankings—you can use My Rank here. You can listen and subscribe to Status Check with Spivey on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, YouTube, and Google Podcasts. You can read a full transcript of this episode here. We also wanted to briefly elaborate on one topic—in this episode, Mike and Dean Z discuss whether and how to incorporate "why law" into one's application. Most applicants probably shouldn't write their personal statement with the intention of trying to answer "why law," since most often this results in explaining a series of different experiences they've had and classes they've taken to explain their reasons for wanting to attend law school, which typically ends up relatively generic/non-differentiating. However, that is not to say that it's not prudent to have clarity about why you want to go to law school—at bare minimum for yourself, but also, from an admissions strategy standpoint, so that you can answer that very common interview question. You may also incorporate part(s) of your "why law" in your personal statement or elsewhere in your application, but we don't encourage most applicants to write their personal statement as an answer to the prompt, "Why do you want to go to law school?"

Natalia has a long history in the automotive industry and has used her expertise to create a new kind of customer experience at A2Z Sync. She has been leading the development team for the A2Z platform for the past three years, helping many dealers adopt the One-Person Sales Model. Natalia's background in product development and business consulting has prepared her to provide valuable advice to dealers as the industry changes. Shaun 'NIFF' Kniffin, the Director of Marketing and Technology for the germain motor company Organization, to discuss technology's role in meeting and exceeding the expectations of today's clients. Shaun "Niff" Kniffin has been with Germain Motor Company for 17 years, working with over 20 stores across five states through GermainCars.com. He began his career in the automotive industry in 1993, working in retail sales before spending three years in corporate recruiting. In addition to his work at Germain, Niff is also the co-founder of the NCM Digital Marketing 20 Group, which has representation from over 300 different rooftops across the country. He has also given numerous speaking engagements and played advisory roles for companies such as AutoTrader.com, Urban Science, and Google. Niff is known as one of the leading experts in automotive digital marketing in the United States and is dedicated to serving the industry and Germain. They discuss how technology has changed the customer experience and how it can be used to bring back the human connection to the business. They also talk about the importance of training and the need to adapt and constantly reassess in order to stay competitive in the industry. The guests also share their predictions for the industry in 2023, including the commoditization of technology and the need to focus on training and culture in order to retain and improve employees. Key points from the episode: The conversation will focus on technology's role in meeting and exceeding the expectations of today's clients Client expectations have increased over the past five years and will continue to do so in the future Technology has played a role in increasing client expectations by providing more efficient and convenient experiences The discussion will also touch on the current state of the automotive industry and how it has been affected by the pandemic, including the shift to online sales and the importance of adapting to changing customer needs Technology can be used to automate processes and streamline the car buying experience, but it's important to remember the human touch and personalization for customers. The conversation starts by discussing the increasing expectations of clients and how technology has played a role in that. Niff mentions that while technology is a great servant, it can also become the master, and it's important to remember the high touch factor behind all the high tech. He also touches on the idea of the Metaverse and how it's not the same as real life, especially when it comes to purchasing a vehicle. Natasha shares her thoughts on the role of technology in providing a seamless and efficient experience for customers, as well as the importance of personalization. They discuss how technology can be used to gather data and provide a personalized experience for each individual customer, rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. As the conversation continues, the topic shifts to the current state of the automotive industry and how it has been affected by the pandemic. Niff talks about the shift to online sales and the importance of adapting to meet the changing needs of customers. They also discuss the role of technology in automating processes and streamlining the car buying experience. As technology continues to advance, clients' expectations have also risen. Gone are the days of simply ordering a book on Amazon and having it delivered to your doorstep - today's clients expect a seamless, frictionless experience. In the automotive industry, this means meeting clients' needs for speed, convenience, and personalized service. However, as Niff points out, technology should be used as a servant, not a master. While it's important to leverage technology to meet clients' needs, it's also crucial to maintain a high touch factor and ensure that clients feel like they're interacting with a human being. The Importance of Consistency in the Sales Process In today's world, customer expectations are higher than ever before, and they continue to rise as technology advances. This means that it's more important than ever for companies to consistently meet and exceed those expectations in order to stay competitive. One way to do this is by implementing a consistent sales process. As Natasha pointed out, having a consistent sales process can help increase capacity and improve the overall sales process. This can be achieved through the use of technology and training to streamline and digitize the process, ensuring that every employee follows the same steps every time. This is especially important in industries where not all employees may have the same intellect or experience. Niff, Director of Marketing and Technology for the Germaine Organization, emphasized the importance of helping sales associates understand the purpose and benefits of following a consistent process. By doing so, not only will the dealership benefit, but the sales associates will also see an increase in their own success. In order to consistently deliver a great customer experience, it's crucial for companies to have a consistent sales process in place. By utilizing technology and training to streamline and digitize the process, and helping sales associates understand the benefits of following it, companies can ensure that they are meeting and exceeding the ever-increasing expectations of today's customers. As the automotive industry looks towards 2030, it is clear that technology will continue to play a significant role in shaping the customer experience. While electric vehicles may not become the dominant force in the market as some have predicted, hybrid technology and improvements in gas engines are likely to continue. In addition, the use of data and insights to understand consumer behavior and preferences will become increasingly important in marketing efforts. Reputation and the customer experience will remain crucial in the industry, as consumers continue to seek out companies that provide a seamless and enjoyable experience. Training and development of employees will also be key, as the industry looks to improve processes and streamline workflows to increase efficiency. Overall, the automotive industry will need to adapt and evolve in order to stay competitive in a rapidly changing market. By embracing technology, investing in employee development, and prioritizing the customer experience, companies can set themselves up for success in the years ahead. Natasha and Niff share their insights on the changing landscape of the automotive industry and the role of technology in meeting and exceeding the expectations of today's clients. Overall, the discussion highlights the importance of technology in providing a better experience for customers, while still maintaining a human touch and personalized approach. As expectations continue to rise, it's crucial for companies to adapt and utilize technology in a way that meets the needs of their clients.

Many of the current-day operational shifts in retail automotive are driven by consumers' ever-evolving expectations and habits. Therefore, it is essential to 'future-proof' your dealership by putting processes in place now. As a result of A2Z Sync's one-person sales methodology, retailers have been able to expand their businesses. In this episode of the David Spisak Show, we will discuss the one-person sales concept and how it influences the customer experience. As the world adjusts to a new standard, many businesses are having trouble balancing online and in-person encounters, so please join us in welcoming Natalia Giner, CEO of A2Z Sync. The customer service process has been a minefield for auto dealerships. Natalia has worked in the automobile industry for over 20 years. She has brought her expertise to A2Z Sync to provide customers with a revolutionary experience, primarily focusing on developing innovative, client-centric services. She has been in charge of the A2Z platform's development team for the past three years, during which numerous dealers have successfully converted to the One-Person Sales Model. With a background in product development and business consulting, she is well-suited to her role of advising dealers on adapting to the automobile industry's changing face. A2Z Sync set out to transform the traditional retail industry. A2Z Sync provides operational readiness evaluations, extensive in-dealership training, and continuing technical and training assistance to aid its clients in making the switch to a One-Person Sales Model. To ensure the continued success of its software platform, A2Z Sync creates a bespoke implementation plan for each dealer. Key Takeaways The modern automobile customer is impatient for service, wants answers immediately, and values convenience. Thanks to this revolutionary software, a single salesperson can handle the vast majority of a transaction by themselves. Consistent and unified service throughout the journey is crucial to ensuring your dealership and staff offer the most outstanding digital client experience. We will show you how to take these services beyond your dealership's doors while still catering to your customers' needs. Reduced transaction times, greater PVR, more satisfied customers, and lower employee turnover are just some of the benefits one-person sales models provide to dealers. Since they deal with clients one-to-one, they can establish deeper bonds of trust and loyalty. Every salesman has their own system, and it might be anything from one car per month to ten vehicles every month, but Without a clearly defined process, there are likely a hundred different ways of doing things. Many people throw up their hands in frustration when faced with the procedure. However, there is a reason why FedEx and Amazon both adhere to such strict guidelines; these two companies have a secret weapon: a well-defined method. However, from the client's perspective, transparency is also desired. They desire shared authority over a process. But if you don't have a strategy, how can you offer them joint jurisdiction over it? And thus, Not only is it beneficial to the dealer only, but it also benefits the customer because they can do things the way they want. But how can we tell if we are winning or losing if we don't examine the process and identify areas for improvement? Find out how to set your dealership apart by providing a more personalized and exciting experience.

Every salesman has their own system, and it might be anything from one car per month to ten vehicles every month, but Without a clearly defined process, there are likely a hundred different ways of doing things. Many people throw up their hands in frustration when faced with the procedure. However, there is a reason why FedEx and Amazon both adhere to such strict guidelines; these two companies have a secret weapon: a well-defined method.However, from the client's perspective, transparency is also desired. They desire shared authority over a process. But if you don't have a strategy, how can you offer them joint jurisdiction over it? And thus, Not only is it beneficial to the dealer only, but it also benefits the customer because they can do things the way they want.But how can we tell if we are winning or losing if we don't examine the process and identify areas for improvement?Find out how to set your dealership apart by providing a more personalized and exciting experience.Visit https://linktr.ee/spisakd for all our linksUpdates here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/davidspisakscommunity/ Like this show?

But in order to use the bench press effectively, you need to learn the skills required to dip under a bar, the unique differences between bench press variations and their utility, and ways to program the bench press into your workouts to maximize it's efficacy.
