The SaaS Magic Number is one of the most Googled SaaS metric posts — but it's also one of the most misunderstood. In episode #310, Ben Murray explains what the SaaS Magic Number really measures, why investors care about it, and the benchmarks you should use to evaluate your own business model. From the formula (revenue growth vs. sales & marketing spend) to the nuances (why churn and expansion impact the metric), Ben shows SaaS operators how to avoid common pitfalls. You'll also hear the latest benchmark data from Ray Rike at Benchmarkit.ai, giving you investor-ready context for your next fundraising or valuation conversation. What You'll Learn: What the SaaS Magic Number is and how to calculate it. Why it's more than just a sales and marketing efficiency metric. The nuance: contraction, churn, and customer success also affect the number. Why ARR size and ACV segmentation are critical for accurate benchmarking. When the metric is most useful (short sales cycles, PLG) vs. when to be cautious (enterprise sales cycles). Why It Matters for SaaS Operators & Investors: The Magic Number is a widely used investor metric to gauge efficiency. Clean reporting builds confidence with investors and supports higher company valuations. Benchmarks by ARR and ACV provide a realistic picture of growth efficiency. Using the wrong interpretation can lead to bad decisions in finance strategy and fundraising.

Có nên chuyển toàn bộ các chuyến bay quốc tế từ Sân bay Tân Sơn Nhất đến Sân bay Long Thành ngay từ năm 2026? Đó là vấn đề đang gây nhiều tranh cãi tại Việt Nam và nhiều chuyên gia đã bày tỏ sự quan ngại về phương án này. Công trình xây dựng sân bay quốc tế Long Thành, trên diện tích 5.000 ha, được chia làm ba giai đoạn. Giai đoạn một dự kiến hoàn thành cuối năm nay. Theo kế hoạch dự trù, vào ngày 19/12/2025, chuyến bay “kỹ thuật” đầu tiên cất cánh từ Sân bay Nội Bài, Hà Nội, sẽ hạ cánh xuống đường băng Sân bay Long Thành. Kể từ giữa năm tới, trên nguyên tắc sân bay quốc tế mới này sẽ được đưa vào hoạt động, trước mắt là với công suất 25 triệu lượt khách và 1,2 triệu tấn hàng hóa mỗi năm. Sân bay sau khi hoàn tất giai đoạn đầu được được mô tả là “với hạ tầng hiện đại, nhà ga rộng, công nghệ tự động hóa và luồng di chuyển thông thoáng”. Tổng công ty Cảng Hàng không Việt Nam (ACV) đã đề ra hai phương án: Hoặc là chuyển toàn bộ chuyến bay quốc tế về Long Thành ngay từ 2026, hoặc chỉ dời các đường bay quốc tế dài, giữ lại các chặng ngắn ở Tân Sơn Nhất. Theo báo chí Việt Nam, Cục Hàng không Việt Nam và nhiều hãng bay quốc tế cũng “cơ bản nhất trí” với phương án tập trung toàn bộ chuyến bay quốc tế về Long Thành, cho rằng như vậy sẽ “thuận tiện quản lý, tối ưu nguồn lực*. Vị trí của Sân bay Long Thành được cho là “thuận lợi hơn” vì nằm tách biệt với khu dân cư, không phải hạn chế giờ bay và sẽ được kết nối bằng các đường cao tốc, đường vành đai và trong tương lai sẽ có các tuyến metro. Nhưng vấn đề là hiện giờ mạng lưới giao thông đó hầu như chưa có và như vậy việc tập trung toàn bộ chuyến bay quốc tế về Long Thành ngay từ giữa năm 2026 sẽ đặt ra nhiều vấn đề về di chuyển đối với hành khách, nhất là vào những giờ cao điểm. Nhiều chuyên gia đã bày tỏ quan ngại về phương án này, trong đó có kiến trúc sư Ngô Viết Nam Sơn, hiện là Chủ tịch NgoViet Architects & Planners và có trên 30 năm kinh nghiệm quốc tế về tư vấn thiết kế, quy hoạch kiến trúc tại châu Á và Bắc Mỹ. Theo quan điểm của kiến trúc sư Ngô Viết Nam Sơn, Sân bay Long Thành chưa thể tiếp nhận ngay toàn bộ hay phần lớn các chuyến bay quốc tế, mà vai trò của sân bay này nên được nâng dần lên theo từng bước cho đến khi có đầy đủ cơ sở hạ tầng giao thông cần thiết. Sau đây mời quý vị nghe bài phỏng vấn qua điện thoại với kiến trúc sư Ngô Viết Nam Sơn: Xin kính chào kiến trúc sư Ngô Viết Nam Sơn, xin cám ơn ông đã nhận trả lời phỏng vấn. Trước hết ông có đánh giá như thế nào về vị trí và tiềm năng của Sân bay Long Thành? KTS Ngô Viết Nam Sơn: Long Thành có một vị trí chiến lược tốt, bởi vì Sân bay Long Thành phục vụ cho cả vùng đô thị thành phố Hồ Chí Minh, chứ không phải chỉ riêng thành phố Hồ Chí Minh. Trong tương quan với những khu vực trọng điểm như là khu trung tâm của các tỉnh thành lân cận thành phố Hồ Chí Minh: Bình Dương, Đồng Nai, Bà Rịa - Vũng Tàu, cũng như các hạ tầng trọng điểm như Cụm cảng biển Thị Vải - Cái Mép - Cần Giờ, cùng trung tâm đường sắt ở phía Bình Dương, v.v…, tôi nghĩ rằng đây là một vị trí chiến lược tốt. Sân bay cũng nằm cách trung tâm nội thành Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh trong một khoảng cách có thể nói là lý tưởng, khoảng 40km, không quá xa và sân bay có quỹ đất rộng. Thưa ông, có hai phương án đang được đặt ra cho năm 2026: Hoặc là dồn toàn bộ các chuyến bay quốc tế đến Sân bay Long Thành, hoặc là chỉ chuyển những chuyến bay đường dài đến Long Thành và những chuyến bay đường ngắn thì tạm thời vẫn để ở Tân Sơn Nhất. Về các hệ thống giao thông để mà kết nối sân bay Long Thành với Sài Gòn chẳng hạn thì ông thấy hiện nay họ đang tiến hành như thế nào? KTS Ngô Viết Nam Sơn: Các nhà quản lý mong là sẽ đưa sân bay Long Thành vào hoạt động cuối năm nay hoặc là đầu năm sau. Tuy nhiên, có vẻ như là những dự án kết nối hạ tầng, kết nối vùng không theo kịp với tiến độ này. Hai phương án mà ACV đưa ra: Một là chuyển toàn bộ tuyến quốc tế về Long Thành và hai là chỉ chuyển những tuyến đường dài về Long Thành và giữ lại những tuyến đường ngắn lại cho Tân Sơn Nhất và cả hai sân bay đều có tuyến bay quốc nội. Tôi nghĩ rằng hai phương án này cũng chỉ hướng đến mục tiêu ngắn hạn thôi, bởi vì chúng ta phải nhìn đến với mục tiêu dài hạn là hướng đến đích đến, khi mà hoàn thành đúng như kỳ vọng và đúng như quy hoạch, Long Thành sẽ là một sân bay tầm cỡ quốc tế hàng đầu của siêu đô thị Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh. Mình nói siêu đô thị là bởi vì Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh đã rất là lớn, quy mô đã trên 10 triệu dân và vừa rồi Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh nay sáp nhập với tỉnh Bình Dương và tỉnh Bà Rịa Vũng Tàu, tăng quy mô đô thị lên gấp ba và dân số lên gấp rưỡi. Như vậy, Sân bay Long Thành phục vụ cho cả một vùng đô thị Nam Bộ rộng lớn phía Nam, trong đó Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh là trung tâm. Như vậy, nhìn đến kỳ vọng tương lai, khi đó sân bay Long Thành có thể được ví như sân bay Charles de Gaulle của Paris với những tuyến quốc tế đường dài và hạ tầng của nó thì không chỉ có đường bộ, đường cao tốc, mà có cả kết nối metro, kết nối đường sắt cao tốc, giống như TGV của Pháp, đến sân bay Long Thành. Bên cạnh đó là khu vực xung quanh sân bay Long Thành sẽ hình thành như là một đô thị sân bay ( Airport City ). Giữa Sân bay Long Thành và Cụm Cảng Thị Vải - Cái Mép - Cần Giờ còn có khu thương mại tự do quốc tế đang được dự tính xây dựng, một phần là sẽ thuộc Đồng Nai, một phần sẽ thuộc Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh. Viễn cảnh xa là như vậy, nhưng trước mắt, nếu chúng ta đưa nó vào sử dụng, cho là đầu năm sau đi, thì rõ ràng là hạ tầng kết nối không kịp xây dựng. Đứng về góc độ khoa học, chúng ta có thể thấy rất rõ là việc nóng vội đưa tất cả những tuyến bay quốc tế về đây sẽ không hiệu quả, sẽ làm giảm giá trị của cả Long Thành lẫn Tân Sơn nhất. Tức là cả hai sân bay đều không hoạt động được tốt. Trước mắt, nếu muốn đưa sân bay Long Thành sớm sử dụng đó, tôi vẫn thấy phương án hai có lẽ là khả thi hơn, mặc dù là trong tương lai, Sân bay Long Thành sẽ đóng một vai trò quan trọng hàng đầu tại Việt Nam, lúc đó Tân Sơn Nhất sẽ đóng vai trò thứ yếu. Nhưng sang năm thì tôi nghĩ rằng chúng ta hãy nhìn vào thực tế: vẫn nên để Tân Sơn Nhất quan trọng hơn Long Thành trong ngắn hạn. Bởi vì, với một siêu đô thị như Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh mà hoạt động hiện giờ là khách quốc tế ra vào và khách quốc nội đi và đến sân bay Tân Sơn Nhất, thì không nên vì mong muốn thúc đẩy phát triển Long Thành khi nó chưa có đủ điều kiện mà làm hại đến sự nghiệp chung. Vâng, tức là có nguy cơ nó sẽ gây khó khăn cho các hãng hàng không quốc tế tức là hành khách của những chuyến bay quốc tế dài tới Long Thành muốn kết nối với Sân bay Tân Sơn nhất để đi các chuyến nội địa thì gặp tình trạng là đường xá của mình không phục vụ kịp. KTS Ngô Viết Nam Sơn: Chắc chắn rồi. Chúng tôi cũng đi nước ngoài thường xuyên. Sân bay quốc tế nào cũng vậy thôi, kết nối quốc nội với quốc tế phải thuận tiện. Hiện giờ người ta đang mong muốn Long Thành trở thành như là một "hub" về hàng không, sẽ là nơi tập trung những chuyến bay đường dài đi Châu Mỹ, đi Châu Âu, đi Châu Úc, vân vân… và sẽ có những chuyến quốc nội và quốc tế đến và gom khách ở đây. Dần dần sẽ có những chuyến bay thẳng của máy bay Boeing và Airbus rất lớn. Nhưng chúng ta phải nhìn nhận là hiện giờ Long Thành chưa phải là hub. Muốn trở thành hub thì cần điều kiện là hạ tầng kết nối phải rất là tốt. Bên cạnh đó, các hãng hàng không của Việt Nam, ít ra là hai hãng Vietnam Airlines và Vietjet, phải vươn lên tầm quốc tế, giống như Singapore Airlines hay là Japan Airlines, lúc đó nó mới trở thành là một thực tế. Như vậy là việc chuyến các chuyến bay quốc tế đến Long Thành là tùy thuộc vào khả năng tiếp nhận của sân bay. Khi nào thì Sân bay Long thành mới có thể đạt được mục tiêu đó? KTS Ngô Viết Nam Sơn: Tôi nhìn đến một kịch bản là mình tăng dần dần tầm quan trọng của Long Thành. Có thể là bước một sẽ có một số tuyến quốc tế và giai đoạn đầu có thể tập trung nhiều hơn cho hoạt động vận chuyển hàng hóa, tức là chuyển toàn bộ hoạt động vận chuyển hàng hóa, hay sửa chữa bảo dưỡng máy bay của Tân Sơn Nhất về Long Thành. Bước một thì có thể chấp nhận là Tân Sơn nhất vẫn quan trọng hơn Long Thành. Bước hai là khi bắt đầu có những kết nối hệ thống phục vụ cho Sân bay Long Thành, không chỉ là giao thông xung quanh sân bay, mà cả kết nối đến các tỉnh thành ở trong vùng Nam Bộ, bởi vì một sân bay như Long Thành phục vụ cho cả một vùng đô thị rộng lớn, chứ không phải chỉ một hai tỉnh thành. Bước hai là khi chúng ta có kết nối ít nhất là đường bộ cao tốc nối đến các tỉnh thành, những hệ thống vành đai 1,2,3,4 của Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh hoàn thành những kết nối trực tiếp, như là đường Long Thành - Dầu Giây, được mở rộng ra để không ách tắc. Và có thể thêm được hai tuyến metro quan trọng. Thứ nhất là tuyến Metro trực tiếp từ Thủ Thiêm chạy thẳng lên Long Thành và thứ hai là kéo dài tuyến Metro số 1 lên Biên Hòa từ Biên Hòa xuống Long Thành. Có nghĩa là sân bay này sẽ được phục vụ bởi hai tuyến metro từ nội thành Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh. Lúc đó mình mới nên bàn đến việc chuyển đa số những tuyến quốc tế, đường ngắn và đường dài, về Long Thành. Bước ba thì xa hơn thế. Lúc đó Long Thành không chỉ là một sân bay, không chỉ là một điểm trung chuyển, mà có thể trở thành điểm đến theo mô hình thế kỷ 21 của thế giới, đó là đô thị sân bay. Về đô thị sân bay, tôi có đi thăm và làm việc với các đồng nghiệp ở sân bay Charles de Gaulle, họ có đưa lên khu đô thị sân bay của Paris. Sân bay Changi của Singapore, hay sân bay Schiphol ở Amsterdam thì đi khá xa với mô hình đô thị sân bay. Đến đó chúng ta thấy sân bay trở thành một điểm đến hấp dẫn. Khi hạ cánh xuống người ta có thể lựa chọn ở lại sân bay, có khách sạn, có căn hộ, rồi có dịch vụ thương mại, thậm chí là công viên giải trí. Bước ba thì Long Thành sẽ trở thành thứ nhất là một đô thị sân bay. Thứ hai là khu thương mại tự do kết nối với Long Thành, kết nối với Cụm cảng biển Thị Vải - Cái Mép - Cần Giờ, trở thành cũng là một điểm đến hấp dẫn. Lúc đó nó mới thật sự là kỳ vọng mà chúng ta đang mong muốn cho Long Thành. Tóm lại, trong ba bước này, tầm quan trọng của Long Thành sẽ tăng dần dần. Nhưng tôi muốn nhấn mạnh là ở bước một, hãy khoan thúc đẩy nó ở một vai trò quá quan trọng so với năng lực hạ tầng của nó. Trong bước một thì có thể khai trương, đưa Sân bay Long Thành vào sử dụng, nhưng ở bước một này, nó không thể quan trọng hơn Tân Sơn Nhất được.

JR—Arizona's go-to home insurance specialist—breaks down how your policy can speed or stall a mortgage, refi, or HELOC. He shows what lenders verify (coverage limits, deductibles, replacement cost vs. ACV, effective dates, the mortgagee clause) and the gaps that jam closings—missing binders, wrong clauses, roof exclusions, HOA “walls-in” misunderstandings.

In this episode, we explore the vital role of the liver in overall metabolic health and why fatty liver disease has become increasingly common. We dive into the liver's many functions, including detoxification, fat metabolism, and hormone regulation, highlighting how disruption in these processes contributes to fat accumulation in the liver. Understanding the root causes—from diet and lifestyle factors to environmental toxins and insulin resistance—is key to addressing this growing health concern. We also focus on actionable, food-as-medicine strategies to support liver function and promote reversal of fatty liver disease. Listeners will learn about key nutrients, dietary patterns, and lifestyle habits that nourish the liver, reduce inflammation, and improve metabolic flexibility. Plus we discuss how a ketogenic approach can literally reverse fatty liver, supplemental support and favorite recipes to support liver health!

Ever wondered what the best way is to start your morning for optimal gut health? In this episode, I'm breaking down the exact routine I follow (and recommend to my clients) that supports digestion, boosts energy, helps with skin issues, and sets the tone for a smoother day overall. I'm also sharing the backstory—how I discovered my gut was behind my cystic acne, why your mouth health directly impacts your digestive system, and why skipping breakfast may be one of the worst things you can do for your hormones and metabolism. Whether you're starting from scratch or ready to fine-tune your current routine, this episode gives you 3 simple steps to implement right away—and a deeper understanding of why they matter. Inside the episode: Why your gut is at the center of everything (mood, skin, hormones, metabolism—you name it!) The real reason cystic acne and bloating may have nothing to do with your skincare or diet How our culture has brainwashed us into treating symptoms instead of the root The 3-step morning gut routine I swear by and recommend to every woman: Oil pulling or tongue scraping to reset your oral microbiome Morning lemon + ACV water to wake up your enzymes 30g of protein within 1 hour to fire up digestion and stabilize energy Why being “not hungry in the morning” is a red flag and not a flex How deep testing like GI mapping and Dutch hormone testing can uncover what routines alone can't fix Learn more: Dutch Testing: https://drbethwestie.com/dutch-hormone-testing/ GI Mapping: https://dr-beth-westie.mykajabi.com/offers/atCzhzkQ/checkout The Female Hormone Solution Program: My deep-dive coaching program that gets to the root of your hormone and gut health issues ➡️ Join the Waitlist Here
You've added new ARR—but are you spending too much to get it? In episode #302, Ben Murray walks through two practical ways to align your ARR growth with your sales and marketing spend. If you're unsure whether you're underinvesting, overspending, or just inefficient, this episode will help you benchmark your GTM motion using real data and operator-friendly metrics. What You'll Learn Two ways to triangulate S&M spend relative to ARR OpEx profile: Sales & Marketing spend as a % of revenue Cost of ARR: Spend required to acquire $1 of net new ARR Why relying on benchmarks without context (like ACV or price point) can mislead your analysis The difference between investment level and go-to-market efficiency Where to find benchmarks by ACV stage using Benchmarkit.ai (Ray Rike's dataset) Why It Matters Your sales & marketing efficiency plays a critical role in sustainable SaaS growth Proper benchmarks help you avoid overspending—or underinvesting—in growth Helps investors and operators answer: “Is our GTM engine working?” Resources Mentioned Cost of ARR Blog Post + Template: https://www.thesaascfo.com/saas-cac-ratio/ Benchmark data: Benchmarkit.ai Quote from Ben “I love the Cost of ARR—because whether your ACV is $500 or $50,000, it normalizes efficiency across go-to-market models.”
Pourquoi l'ACV n'est pas qu'un outil d'écolos mais une boussole stratégique pour l'industrie Quand on parle d'analyse de cycle de vie (ACV), beaucoup pensent encore à une démarche technique, réglementaire ou à un “nice to have” pour les entreprises qui veulent verdir leur image ou accéder à des marchés. C'est une erreur de perspective. Cet épisode le montre très bien : l'ACV est surtout un formidable outil de pilotage stratégique. Elle permet de mieux comprendre la structure réelle d'un produit, d'identifier ses vulnérabilités, et de prendre de meilleures décisions. Pas seulement pour l'environnement, mais aussi pour la résilience, la rentabilité et la pérennité de l'entreprise. Dans l'industrie, on découvre souvent des choses contre-intuitives : ce n'est pas forcément le matériau qui pèse le plus lourd dans l'impact environnemental, mais plutôt des étapes cachées comme la maintenance, les déplacements logistiques, ou l'utilisation d'énergie dans des pays à mix énergétique carboné. Sans ACV, ces impacts-là restent invisibles. Faire une ACV, c'est aussi mettre à jour les dépendances critiques : à l'eau, à certaines matières premières, à des procédés très énergivores ou à des sous-traitants peu stables. Et dans un contexte de dérèglement climatique, de tensions géopolitiques, de pressions réglementaires croissantes et de raréfaction des ressources, ces dépendances peuvent devenir des risques majeurs pour une entreprise. La bonne nouvelle, c'est qu'en identifiant ces risques en amont, on peut les gérer, les anticiper, et même en tirer des avantages concurrentiels. Choisir dès aujourd'hui de changer un process, un matériau, ou une source d'énergie, c'est gagner du temps sur ceux qui attendront d'y être contraints. L'ACV est donc un outil d'aide à la décision, au même titre qu'une étude de marché ou une analyse de rentabilité. Sauf qu'ici, on regarde plus loin : on pense impact global, coût caché, résilience des chaînes d'approvisionnement, robustesse des processus. Ce n'est pas un exercice cosmétique ou réglementaire. C'est une clé pour continuer à produire dans un monde qui change vite. Ce podcast propose justement une plongée très concrète dans ces sujets. Avec des exemples de terrain, loin de la théorie, et une approche très pragmatique : ni culpabilisante, ni utopique. Juste lucide. À écouter si vous travaillez dans l'industrie, que vous vous posez des questions sur la durabilité de vos produits ou que vous cherchez à aligner performance économique et responsabilité environnementale, sans bullshit. Bonne écoute !

Is a recycle bin a “vehicle”? Does a car antenna ripping a coat fall under the Vehicles peril? How about a poorly secured wedding dress in the backseat of a convertible? If you occasionally win a biking competition, does the loss of your bike trigger business property coverage? Join Mike, Tim, and Alissha for the lightning round and discuss bikes, eBikes, sleds, boats, and more. Notable Timestamps [ 00:15 ] - The insured is an avid cyclist who occasionally wins money from his hobby. Another cyclist cut him off and he crashed his bike into a tree while at a park, destroying the bike. [ 01:13 ] - Mike & Alissha share personal stories, including a disastrous encounter with a parked car. [ 03:47 ] - The bike itself is Coverage C Personal Property as there's an exclusion for motor vehicles, but not for vehicles. [ 07:04 ] - There is a Named Peril for losses caused by vehicles. Courts interpret this broadly to mean anything from boats to sleds; rollerblades and recycle bins might be pushing it. [ 09:22 ] - The force / weight / momentum of the vehicle must cause the loss. The team goes through a lightning quiz round exploring a variety of mini-scenarios on the vehicles peril. [ 13:53 ] - Depreciation can be subtracted when the bike is replaced if it was paid under ACV. [ 14:29 ] - Although the insured occasionally won money, that likely doesn't qualify it as a business. [ 15:18 ] - eBikes present novel issues due to the motor vehicles exclusion, so PLRB has prepared detailed resources on this issue. [ 17:12 ] - Tim provides a recap of the scenario and the points above.

In episode #295 of SaaS Metrics School, Ben Murray breaks down how to benchmark your CAC Payback Period accurately—and why generic social media posts can lead you astray. Too many founders rely on simplified benchmark numbers, such as “12 months or less is good,” without understanding the nuances behind the data. Ben explains why ACV segmentation is critical, how top-quartile companies perform across different contract sizes, and where you can obtain customized benchmarks for your SaaS business. Key topics include: Why aggregate CAC Payback benchmarks are dangerous to follow blindly How CAC Payback performance varies by Annual Contract Value (ACV) Top quartile benchmarks from (Ray Rike's database) CAC Payback ranges Why product segmentation matters—don't combine CAC across SMB and enterprise lines How to get free, custom benchmarks to evaluate your own performance Remember: You can't optimize what you don't benchmark correctly.

Story at-a-glance Apple cider vinegar (ACV) supports digestion, blood sugar balance, and satiety by slowing gastric emptying and stabilizing your energy after meals Just 1 tablespoon daily, diluted in water, helped participants lose weight, shrink waistlines, and eliminate digestive symptoms in under 30 days, according to a recent study ACV's active compound, acetic acid, improves insulin sensitivity and reduces fat formation by helping the body burn glucose more efficiently and store less fat after meals ACV also works topically and around the home. Use it to treat dandruff, reduce nasal congestion, sanitize toothbrushes, and soothe bloating, acid reflux, or minor infections Consuming undiluted vinegar can damage your teeth and esophagus, and combining it with medications like insulin or diuretics can dangerously lower potassium levels — here are some tips to help you use ACV safely

"If your team's still selling features, your packaging is broken. Most CEOs focus on scaling sales, but they overlook pricing and packaging as core revenue levers. When your pricing aligns with the value you deliver, value-based selling becomes second nature, discounting drops, and revenue growth accelerates. You don't need a new product, you need a smarter way to package what you already have.” Roee Hartuv There's a revenue lever sitting inside your business, and most CEOs aren't pulling it. While go-to-market teams focus on win rates, funnels, and churn, few leaders pause to rethink pricing and packaging. But this often-overlooked strategy is one of the fastest, highest ROI paths to growth. In this episode, returning guest Roee Hartuv, pricing strategist and advisor, reveals why fixing packaging and pricing often beats any playbook tweak, and how CEOs can unlock hidden revenue by aligning pricing to customer value. You'll learn: Why no one “owns” pricing and how that creates revenue leaks The 4-step framework Roee uses to raise prices without increasing churn How value-based packaging enables better sales and customer success What most pricing changes get wrong and how to avoid pushback How to use packaging to reduce discounting, increase ACV, and drive expansion Whether you're scaling a SaaS product or leading a GTM transformation, this episode will challenge how you think about pricing. and give you the playbook to make it work.Flat or slowing revenue?

Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows! This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track! Check out today's questions: John: Hey doc. I've been doing the heavy metal detox once a year for about 5 years now. Should I keep taking other supplements while I'm on the detox. I take men's hair support, balanced zinc , magnesium and dns . Just wanted to know if the detox cancels out the other stuff . Thanks Tanya: What causes Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase to be high? My number has been considered "high" for my last three readings.I cannot find any information regarding higher levels, but a lot on lower levels. Thank you Anonymous: Hi Dr. Cabral! I've used things like ACV and homemade fire cider in the past for various reasons, but stopped because I would instantly develop mucus in the back of my throat. Seemed like maybe I was adding stress to my body rather than the intended healing properties I was looking for in these remedies. Is this a histamine issue? I know I'm sensitive to high histamine foods and alcohol and will instantly flush red and feel overheated especially face, neck, and all my joints. I tend to avoid these things. Should I stay away from things like ACV and fire cider while I'm sorting out my histamine issue? Thanks! Anonymous: Hi Dr Cabral, thank you for all you do! Im currently studying to become an IHP and have learnt so much!I have a couple questions, firstly, I live in Australia & just wondering if at the end of becoming an IHP do you recommend to go onto study naturopathy as I have an interest in that or do you think IHP alone is enough? Secondly, I am 29 and I have always struggled with a really heavy period. It has gotten heavier & I get a lot of clotting. I had test done awhile back with Naturopath and come back a little lower in progesterone, but all my other hormones were perfect. I get sore breast, hold water weight and am irritable after ovulation. I used to experience PMDD. I have done the 21 day detox & am currently doing the CBO protocol as I also have quite severe Leaky gut. Thank you John: Hey doc. If I buy the red light cap that you recommend should I still take your men's hair support .

A poorly functioning pancreas can result in bloating, diarrhea, and constipation. Baking soda can work as a temporary solution for an acid stomach, but not for indigestion! Indigestion is caused by low stomach acid, so baking soda would only worsen the problem. Apple cider vinegar and betaine hydrochloride can help with indigestion. GERD and acid reflux are also related to low stomach acid, but baking soda can help temporarily. ACV and betaine hydrochloride are better long-term solutions. Baking soda can also help with gastritis, but it should be taken with zinc carnosine for this problem.Stomach acid should be highly acidic with a pH between 1 and 3. Drinking baking soda for long periods can neutralize your stomach acid, inhibiting your ability to digest protein, absorb B12, and absorb minerals. Low stomach acid can also lower your ability to kill microbes and pathogens in your food.Baking soda neutralizes the acid in your mouth and is an excellent addition to toothpaste. It can also help relieve itching related to a kidney problem and enhance athletic performance! Baking soda consumption can help prevent kidney stones and can also be helpful if you have a UTI.Baking soda can be used topically for certain insect bites, especially for fire ant bites and bee stings. It can also be used as pest control for insects like cockroaches. Don't take baking soda with vinegar or lemon juice! This creates a significant amount of carbon dioxide, which can leave you feeling bloated.

What if one simple drink before bed could help flatten your stomach, balance blood sugar, improve digestion, and unlock deeper sleep? In this episode, I walk you through the science-backed benefits of taking apple cider vinegar (ACV) at night — hour by hour. You'll learn exactly how ACV affects your gut, hormones, metabolism, and sleep quality while you rest — and why it's far more than just a TikTok trend.
Check out 7 amazing apple cider vinegar benefits that can improve your health starting tonight!1. Healthy blood sugar levelsThe main ingredient in apple cider vinegar is acetic acid, which can stabilize blood sugar when you go to bed. ACV can significantly improve insulin resistance. It slows the breakdown of sugar and starches to reduce the insulin spike after eating. 2. Better sleepOne to two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar in a glass of water before bed can help you sleep better. 3. Improved digestionApple cider vinegar can reduce bloating and improve digestion. This can improve sleep and eliminate heartburn at night. 4. Improves mineral absorptionApple cider vinegar can improve the absorption of important minerals such as calcium, magnesium, iron, zinc, and potassium. It can alleviate symptoms of magnesium deficiency like tetany or leg cramps by improving magnesium absorption. If your stomach is too alkaline, mineral absorption will be inhibited. 5. Weight loss ACV helps you lose weight by increasing insulin sensitivity and improving insulin resistance. 6. Improved liver detoxificationACV can improve liver detoxification and increase the release of bile. Bile improves the digestion of fat. 7. ACV for fuelThe body can use acetic acid as fuel. This won't keep you up at night because it takes a good amount of energy to sleep restfully!Try mixing 1 to 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar into a glass of water. Drink this mixture with a straw to protect your teeth.
In this practical episode, Dr. Scott Watier and Tommy Welling reveal how apple cider vinegar can be a powerful optimizer for your fasting lifestyle. They examine research showing that just two tablespoons of ACV daily helped diabetic patients dramatically lower blood sugar, reduce waist circumference, and improve cholesterol markers without changing their diet. The hosts share their contrasting approaches to incorporating ACV into fasting: Scott uses it to suppress hunger pangs and break emotional food connections during fasting windows. In contrast, Tommy uses it to signal the end of eating periods—like "brushing your teeth" for your fasting timer. They explain how ACV improves fasting results by enhancing insulin sensitivity, slowing gastric emptying, and promoting fat metabolism. They offer listeners a simple yet remarkably effective tool to enhance their fasting results with minimal effort and maximum impact.

Explore additional marketplaces like Walmart, Etsy, and leverage social commerce platforms like TikTok to reach different customer segments and reduce dependency on a single platform.2. Invest in Social Commerce and Influencer Partnerships: Utilize TikTok and Instagram for product-driven content that resonates with younger audiences. Start with micro-influencers for authenticity and consider performance-based models for influencer partnerships to expand your brand's reach.3. Leverage Technology for Efficiency and Growth: Use AI-driven video editing tools (e.g., InVideo, Lumen5) to streamline content creation and maintain a strong digital presence. Partnering with a capable agency for multichannel management can also free up time to focus on core business operations, allowing for more scalable growth.Resources & Links SectionJosh Hadley on LinkedIneComm Breakthrough ConsultingeComm Breakthrough PodcastEmail Josh Hadley: Josh@eCommBreakthrough.comACVSheinTikTok ShopAmazon Integration with TikTokInVideoCapCutShopifyInstagram ShopAmazonShein
In this episode of our podcast, we dive deep into the transformative potential of Africa in the global shift towards a sustainable future, featuring an insightful conversation with James Mwangi, co-founder of Dahlberg and a leading advocate for innovative climate solutions in Kenya. We begin by discussing Africa's booming population and rich natural resources, which James argues position the continent as a powerhouse for innovation and leadership in the climate fight. Contrary to the narrative that views Africa as a victim of climate change, James emphasizes the continent's potential to lead, particularly through initiatives like the Great Carbon Valley, which aims to make Kenya a hub for carbon removals, including advanced technologies like direct air capture. Throughout our conversation, we explore several paradoxes that complicate the implementation of carbon markets. James introduces his own concepts, such as the "power illusion," which challenges the belief that blocking carbon removals will compel fossil fuel companies to reduce emissions. He also discusses the "mastery illusion," which suggests that expertise in climate solutions lies solely in the Global North, ignoring the talent and knowledge present in Africa. We delve into the work of the Climate Action Platform Africa (CAPE) and Africa Climate Ventures (ACV), two organizations James has founded to drive climate-positive growth in the region. CAPE focuses on identifying and realizing opportunities for sustainable development, while ACV invests in companies that address the climate crisis, showcasing innovative projects like biochar production and the Great Carbon Valley initiative. James shares the story of Safi Organics, a company utilizing rice husks to create biochar, which not only serves as a sustainable fertilizer but also contributes to carbon removal. We discuss the importance of transitional finance and the concept of additionality, emphasizing that carbon finance can catalyze projects that are already delivering value to communities. As we shift our focus to the Great Carbon Valley, James outlines Kenya's unique advantages, including its abundant renewable energy resources and geothermal potential. He argues that direct air capture can thrive in Kenya, leveraging the country's surplus energy to support industries that require significant power, ultimately benefiting local economies. We also touch on the recent developments in Kenya's carbon market regulations, which aim to create a competitive environment for carbon finance while prioritizing local benefits. James highlights the importance of building a market that is not only designed for Africa but also driven by local talent and innovation. In closing, we reflect on the need to reverse the brain drain and create opportunities for Africa's best and brightest to thrive at home. This episode is a powerful reminder of the potential for African leadership in the climate space and the importance of fostering local solutions to global challenges. Join us as we explore these critical issues and envision a sustainable future where Africa plays a central role.

Ed Arnold works with B2B companies to develop their value-based pricing strategies. His specialty is translating a company's competitive advantage into a viable customer value pricing strategy, as well as advising on commercial execution. In this episode, Ed shares when value conversations are most effective. He highlights the need to tailor value models to each prospect through open-ended questions that uncover key business drivers. Because when value is clearly demonstrated, price becomes a secondary concern, resulting in smoother sales and fewer pricing objections. Why you have to check out today's podcast: Learn why guiding customers to do their own value math is more persuasive than presenting a pre-made ROI model. Discover how value conversations shift the focus from cost to impact, making price negotiations smoother. Understand why dumping numbers on customers backfires and how to engage them in a way that builds trust and buy-in. "As customers, we have a good sense of what a great deal is. But as sellers, we're much less certain about what that value is. You need to have value conversations to get at that." - Ed Arnold Topics Covered: 00:57 - How he accidentally got into, left, and keeps returning to pricing 03:25 - Explaining how pricing challenges often signal deeper business issues 08:46 - Why customers distrust ROI calculators 11:05 - What value conversation is all about and how to effectively go through it 14:00 - Emphasizing that trust is built through reliability and honest engagement 16:57 - How many good salespeople are there and what make good salespeople 19:17 - The importance of market focus and playbooks in sales 20:49 - Showing the most effective value conversation to have 25:03 - How he trains salespeople on value conversations 29:53 - Noting that while he focuses on larger customers, the same value-based principles apply to marketing lower-ACV products 30:24 - Ed's best pricing advice Key Takeaways: "You cannot solve any pricing issue without tackling the strategy. And if the strategy is flawed, then the pricing isn't going to help you." - Ed Arnold "...and this is the thing that I think about value stories. It's not about the product. It's about the customer. The customer is the star of the story." - Ed Arnold People/Resources Mentioned: Steven Forth: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stevenforth/ Forrester: https://www.forrester.com/bold/ Monitor Deloitte: https://www.deloitte.com/global/en/services/consulting/services/monitor-deloitte.html Leverage Point: https://www.leveragepoint.com/ Connect with Ed Arnold: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/edarnold1/ Connect with Mark Stiving: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stiving/ Email: mark@impactpricing.com

Reports suggest that climate change is set to cost the global economy $38 billion per year by 2049. Emerging markets need close to $2.4 trillion per year by 2030 to meet the climate goals. That's 4 times what is currently invested. But high capital costs are stalling clean energy investment across Africa. If you want to build a renewable energy project in Sub-Saharan Africa, the weighted average cost of capital would be up to 4x as much as the same project in Western Europe or the US, due to the real and perceived risks of investing on the continent.If the world invests in renewables and green technology in Africa at Africa's cost of capital, it will underinvest in green energy assets. 00:00 - The climate funding gap01:01 - It's 4x more expensive to build an energy project in Africa02:10 - The cheapest energy is where there is high energy density03:26 - Startup financing needs06:23 - Addressing funding challenges at the multinational levelCheck out more episodes of The Greenprint here.This episode of The Greenprint was produced in partnership with Catalyst Fund, Delta40, and Africa Climate Ventures.Delta40 is a venture studio and venture capital fund supporting diverse founders leading ventures in energy, agriculture, and fintech, with a special focus on supporting African and female entrepreneurs.
