In the context of medical and/or dental insurance, ADR refers to Additional Documentation Request. This is a request from an insurance payer (like Medicare) for additional records to support a claim. It's not a sign of wrongdoing, but rather a way to ensure compliance with policies and verify the validity of claims. Ignoring these requests, or failure to meet their deadlines, can result in a loss of revenue and trigger additional payers' audits and ADR's. Terry outlines the ADRs and best practices to make sure your staff is on top of these requests, which helps save your revenue.

In this episode of the STR Data Lab, Jamie Lane and Scott Sage discuss travel trends and the latest insights from the Airbnb summer release. Jamie shares his exciting Memorial Day plans, heading to North Carolina for his grandfather's 95th birthday and then to Litchfield Beach in South Carolina for a large family reunion. They discuss Memorial Day travel data, noting that occupancy rates are almost identical to last year but achieved through different trends. There's a weakness in budget and economic travel but strength in upscale travel, especially in coastal destinations.  Jamie and Scott discuss the impact of economic volatility, including tariffs and stock market fluctuations, on travel bookings. They note a trend towards shorter booking windows and the challenges this poses for property managers. Jamie shares his experiences at the Airbnb summer release, highlighting Airbnb's new services aimed at competing with hotels. Both agree that while these services may not directly benefit hosts, they could grow the overall short-term rental market. April data showed a significant increase in demand, occupancy, and ADRs compared to March, attributed to the Easter shift. The discussion includes the impact of Canadian travelers and currency fluctuations on travel patterns. Domestic travel within the U.S. shows some pullback in overseas trips but remains robust. Jamie advises hosts to monitor year-over-year demand in their markets and adjust pricing strategies accordingly.  The episode concludes with Jamie emphasizing the importance of understanding booking windows, length of stay, and property profiles to optimize performance. Scott and Jamie express optimism about summer bookings despite the challenges. You don't want to miss this episode! ~~~~ Signup for AirDNA for FREE

Should the United States delist Chinese stocks? At first thought with all the craziness of the trade war it sounds like delisting all the Chinese companies from the American stock markets may be a good idea. It is important to know that there are 286 Chinese companies listed on major US stock exchanges. You'll recognize some of the names like Alibaba, Baidu and JD.com. It is estimated by analysts at Goldman Sachs that US institutional investors currently own about $830 billion worth of Chinese stocks. That is more than two times what the Chinese own of US stocks as that is estimated around $370 billion. But a quick sell off could bring down stock valuations and make it difficult to get out of many of these stocks on both sides. An important piece of information I brought up a couple years ago was the Accountable Act which came to be in 2020. This allows the Securities Exchange Commission to ban foreign companies from trading if American regulators are not allowed to inspect the auditors for three years in a row. I always worry about Chinese companies because of what I call government accounting. They are not held to the same accounting standards there and I believe companies may list financial statements based on what the government tells them. There have been some Chinese companies that delisted themselves rather than going through an audit. I think that tells you quite a bit. My feeling is we should not delist all the Chinese stocks that trade on American stock exchanges under what is known as ADRs, but be sure that the Chinese companies have the same transparency as American companies when it comes to their financial statements. If we can't get that transparency, then those companies should be delisted.    Jobs report shows more evidence the economy is in good shape US nonfarm payrolls grew by 177k in the month of April, which easily topped the estimate of 133k. Jobs remained robust in health care as the sector added 51k jobs in the month of April and employment in transportation and warehousing and financial activities was also strong as the groups added 29k and 14k jobs respectively in the month. Other categories like construction, manufacturing, leisure and hospitality, and retail trade saw little or no change in payrolls, while government declined by 9k jobs in the month. Government jobs are now down by 26k since January, but remember employees on paid leave or receiving ongoing severance pay are still counted as employed. This likely means we will continue to see losses accelerate in this category as the year continues. Negatives in the report included the fact that employment numbers were revised down by a total of 58k in the previous two months. Also, April's reading was lighter than March's reading of 185k, but considering the unemployment rate remains at 4.2%, I still see these jobs gains as impressive, especially with all the negativity that people have been discussing. With that said, I still do anticipate weaker numbers in terms of the payroll additions in future months, but if the unemployment rate remains low I don't see that as a problem. On the inflation front, we also got good news with average hourly earnings rising just 3.8%. I see this as a healthy increase that does not put pressure on inflation like when wages were growing over 5% in 2022.     Job openings look problematic on the surface In the March Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey, job openings totaled 7.2 million. This was below February's reading of 7.5 million and the estimate, which also stood at 7.5 million. This is still not super concerning to me. We tend to forget how strong the labor market has been and while we continue to see a softening, there is plenty of room before I see cause for concern. Just for reference, job openings in 2019 averaged approximately 7.2 million, in 2018 they averaged approximately 6.8 million, and in 2017 they averaged approximately 6.2 million. Compare that to where we are today and that should give you more comfort. Another area I saw as positive in the report was the fact that quits totaled 3.3 million, which produced a quit rate of 2.1%. This is important because if people were truly concerned about a major slowdown and thought they would not be able to find work elsewhere, I don't believe they would be quitting their jobs. These quit numbers are still quite close to 2019 levels, which many considered as a very strong economy. That year quits averaged approximately 3.5 million and there was an average quit rate of about 2.3%. Also in the report, we saw layoffs remained quite low at 1.6 million. Back in 2019, layoffs averaged around 1.8 million per month. There is no doubt that uncertainty remains and that will have some impact on businesses and their hiring plans, but in terms of it pushing the economy into a major recession, since we are coming from such a healthy level, I just don't see that happening.   Are we in the middle of a recession? The first reading of Q1 GDP showed a decrease of 0.3%. A recession is generally defined as two consecutive quarters of declining GDP, so some may argue we are half way there. Let us not forget in 2022 we did see two consecutive quarters of declining GDP as Q1 declined 1.4% and Q2 showed an advance estimate that was down 0.9%. After further research the second quarter ended up seeing a total reversal and it is now reported to have actually grown by 0.3%. Even with the difficult start, that year ended with a 2.1% growth rate. We also can't forget that the National Bureau of Economy Research (NBER) makes the official call on recession and they use a broader set of indicators that led them not to declare a recession in 2022. I say all of this because I still believe even if we hit a technical recession, if employment remains strong, I don't believe we would have an “official” recession. I am still unsure that we will even see Q2 GDP decline and we could also see revisions to Q1 that lift it to a positive reading. I say this because if you look at the actual underlying numbers in the report, it is not nearly as bad as the headline decline. On the positive front, consumer spending actually grew 1.8% in the quarter as services showed a nice increase of 2.4%. Also, private domestic investment saw a surge of 21.9%, this was led by investments in equipment as they grew 22.5% in the quarter. You might be asking with numbers like these how did we see a negative GDP? To start, government spending fell 1.4% in the quarter. This was led by a decline of 5.1% in spending by the federal government. The group as a whole ended up subtracting 0.25% from the headline GDP number. While this was impactful, the real reason for the decline in GDP was trade. Companies were trying to get ahead of looming tariffs and imports surged 41.3%. This compared to an increase of just 1.8% for exports. The huge discrepancy caused the trade component of GDP to decrease the headline number by 4.83%! While the economy is no doubt digesting these trade conversations and the tariffs, I still believe the economy is in alright shape when you look at the underlying numbers. I did also want to mention more good news on inflation as the March headline PCE showed an increase of 2.3%, which compares to last month's reading of 2.7% and core PCE came in at just 2.6%, which was a nice decline from February's reading of 3.0%. I believe these numbers will likely increase with the tariffs, but underlying inflation looks to be quite healthy.   Financial Planning: Protecting Yourself from Home Title Theft Home title theft is a type of real estate fraud where someone illegally transfers the ownership of your home by forging your name on title documents.  This is often done using stolen personal information to file fraudulent deeds with the county recorder's office. Once the title appears to be in their name, the thief may try to take out loans against the property, sell it to an unsuspecting buyer, or use it in other schemes that could put your home and finances at risk. This crime can go undetected for months if property owners aren't actively monitoring their title.  Having a mortgage or HELOC on your house can make it more difficult for a thief to steal your title since the bank has a lien against the property, but it is still possible. There are private companies that charge monthly fees to alert you of changes to your home title, but they do not prevent the title from being stolen.  You can also purchase home title insurance that will help pay for legal fees if you have to go to court if your title is stolen.  Homeowners in San Diego County can access a free alternative called “Owner Alert”. Jordan Marks who is the San Diego County Assessor/Recorder/County Clerk was behind this, and it is a great benefit that all San Diego property owners should take advantage of.  This service works by notifying you by email whenever a document is recorded against your property, helping you catch potential fraud early.  Signing up is simple and can be done on the San Diego County Assessor's website. You just need your name, email address, and parcel number and it provides the same type of monitoring offered by paid services, making it unnecessary to spend money for peace of mind when this tool is already available for free.   Companies Discussed: Zimmer Biomet Holdings, Inc.

Prednisone is a commonly used medication for its antiinflammatory and immunosuppressive action. On this episode I discuss prednisone pharmacology, ADRs, and much more. In the episode, I discuss how prednisone affects the HPA system in the body. Cortisol production can be greatly impacted by long term use of prednisone. GI adverse effects can be problematic with oral prednisone which is why we often give this medication with food or milk. Hyperglycemia is a complication from the use of prednisone. I've commonly seen blood sugar spike by 50-100+ mg/dL due to this medication. Osteoporosis is a long term risk with the use of prednisone. Prednisone can also impact the benefits of vaccination. I discuss this in greater depth in the drug interactions portion of the podcast.

In this episode of the STR Data Lab, Jamie Lane, Chief Economist at AirDNA, is joined by Bram Gallagher, Director of Forecasting at AirDNA. The duo discusses several pressing topics within the short-term rental industry and broader economic indicators. They begin by reviewing March performance and early April trends, noting a mixed story influenced heavily by recent tariff announcements. Despite a challenging 2023, 2024 saw positive momentum, particularly in mountain resorts benefiting from good snowfall. However, March presented a slight decline in demand growth and occupancy rates, partly due to a calendar shift with spring break and Easter moving to April.  Urban markets saw significant new listings, leading to a notable increase in supply, especially in cities like Jersey City and Newark, following New York's short-term rental regulations. Interest rates, inflation, and consumer confidence are discussed in depth. Bram notes a hesitant stance from the Fed to lower interest rates due to inflationary pressures. Employment remains strong, but consumer confidence and business sentiment have declined.  The discussion also touches on the impact of exchange rates on international travel, with Americans potentially favoring domestic destinations due to a weaker dollar against the Euro. Further, summer travel pacing shows positive trends in traditional vacation rental markets but sluggish demand in urban and suburban areas. Lastly, the episode delves into price evolution, with March showing smaller increases in average daily rates (ADRs) compared to January and February, highlighting affordability concerns amid economic uncertainties. Bram concludes with a look ahead, emphasizing the importance of monitoring layoffs and wage inflation as critical indicators for the economic outlook.

Best Low-Carbon ETFs and Stocks includes reviews of two articles by financial analysts at the highly respected Carbon Credits organization. By Ron Robins, MBA Transcript & Links, Episode 146, January 24, 2025 Hello, Ron Robins here, welcome to my podcast episode 146 published January 24, 2025, titled “Best Low-Carbon ETFs and Stocks.” It's presented by Investing for the Soul. Investingforthesoul.com is your site for vital global ethical and sustainable investing mentoring, news, commentary, information, and resources. Now I'm having to record this podcast two days earlier than usual. But it is still filled with great, up-to-the-minute, informative articles! Also, remember that you can find a full transcript and links to content – including stock symbols and bonus material – on this episode's podcast page at investingforthesoul.com/podcasts. Also, a reminder. I do not evaluate any of the stocks or funds mentioned in these podcasts, and I don't receive any compensation from anyone covered in these podcasts. Furthermore, I will reveal any investments I have in the investments mentioned herein. Additionally, quotes about individual companies are brief. Please go to this podcast's webpage for links to the articles and more company and stock information. ------------------------------------------------------------- Best Low-Carbon ETFs and Stocks (1) Today, I'm starting with two articles on low-carbon ETFs and stocks from analysts at carboncredits.com. The first article is titled Top 5 Carbon ETFs for Sustainable Investing in 2025. It's by Saptakee S. Here are the picks and brief quotes from the article. “1. iShares Global Clean Energy ETF (ICLN) is a part of BlackRock and a top-performing ETF… Essentially, this fund tracks an index of stocks in the global clean energy sector. One important attribute of this ETF is its strict sustainability rules. It excludes companies involved in weapons, tobacco, coal, oil sands, and Arctic drilling. (It) currently manages assets worth $5-6 billion. 2. Invesco Solar ETF (TAN) known as TAN, manages assets valued between $3–4 billion… This fund focuses on solar energy companies, such as manufacturers, installers, and technology providers… TAN is based on the MAC Global Solar Energy Index. It invests 90% of its assets in securities, American depositary receipts (ADRs), and global depositary receipts (GDRs) listed in the index… 3. First Trust Global Wind Energy ETF (FAN) known as FAN, currently manages assets worth $2–3 billion… It's prospective for those managing wind farms, producing wind power, or making wind energy equipment. However, companies must have a market cap of at least $100 million, a daily trading volume of $500,000, and a free float of 25% to join the index. 4. SPDR S&P Kensho Clean Power ETF (CNRG) currently has assets worth $1–2 billion… It is managed by State Street's Investment Solutions Group and is built for long-term growth. With its focus on innovation and the clean energy sector, this ETF is a great option for those wanting to invest in the future of renewable energy. 5. Global X Lithium & Battery Tech ETF (LIT) gives investors access to the booming electrification, lithium, and battery technology sector. Their assets have a $4–5 billion valuation… The ongoing global demand for lithium and supply constraints make this ETF a promising investment in this sector.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Best Low-Carbon ETFs and Stocks (2) Now this is the second article on Low-Carbon investments titled Top 5 Carbon Stocks to Watch in 2025. It's by Jennifer L. and also found on carboncredits.com. “1. Brookfield Renewable Partners (BEP) is one of the world's largest publicly traded renewable energy companies. With a clear focus on clean, renewable energy, Brookfield Renewable Partners distinguishes itself from many of its competitors by operating as a pure-play renewable energy company. This means that its portfolio consists exclusively of renewable sources of power generation, unlike other companies that often combine renewable energy with fossil fuel assets. As of 2024, Brookfield Renewable Partners diversified portfolio encompasses over 35,000 megawatts of operating capacity across various renewable energy sources. This extensive array of assets spans multiple regions, including North America, South America, Europe, and Asia, underscoring Brookfield Renewable Partners commitment to global renewable energy development. For investors seeking exposure to the renewable energy sector with a preference for established companies demonstrating stable growth and reliable returns, Brookfield Renewable Partners represents a compelling option. 2. Aker Carbon Capture ASA (AKCCF) is a Norwegian company specializing in carbon capture technology. Leveraging its expertise from the Aker Group, a global leader in offshore engineering, Aker Carbon Capture has developed modular carbon capture systems that are both cost-effective and scalable… With a solid financial foundation and strategic partnerships, Aker Carbon Capture is well-positioned to expand its carbon capture solutions globally. The aim is to contribute significantly to the reduction of industrial CO₂ emissions and support the transition to a low-carbon economy. 3. LanzaTech Global, Inc. (LNZA) is a pioneering carbon recycling company that transforms waste carbon emissions into sustainable fuels and chemicals through innovative biotechnology using gas fermentation. Through this process, industrial emissions—rich in carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide—are converted into ethanol and other chemicals… The ethanol produced can serve as a building block for various products, including jet fuel, plastics, and synthetic fibers. With a solid financial foundation bolstered by recent capital raises and strategic partnerships, LanzaTech is well-positioned to expand its carbon recycling solutions globally, creating sustainable products from waste carbon. 4. Occidental Petroleum Corporation (OXY) is a major player in the oil and gas industry. However, in recent years, the company has been transforming itself into a leader in carbon management solutions.  Occidental has embraced Direct Air Capture (DAC) technology, which removes CO₂ directly from the atmosphere. In partnership with Carbon Engineering, Occidental is constructing the world's largest DAC facility in Texas, a groundbreaking project that will play a significant role in achieving global emission reduction targets… Occidental's approach is an example of how traditional energy companies are evolving to embrace sustainability. By combining its existing expertise in oil extraction with innovative carbon capture methods, Occidental is paving the way for a future where fossil fuel extraction can coexist with carbon reduction technologies. 5. Equinor ASA (EQNR) formerly known as Statoil, is a Norwegian energy giant that has diversified its portfolio to include renewable energy sources like wind power. It has also been at the forefront of carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) technologies for over 25 years… Equinor is a key player in the Northern Lights project, a pioneering initiative in Norway aimed at developing a large-scale carbon capture and storage infrastructure… Equinor has decades of experience in offshore oil and gas exploration. Its deep-rooted knowledge of energy infrastructure is key to its success in developing large-scale carbon capture and storage solutions. With the potential to store the equivalent of 1,000 years of Norwegian CO₂ emissions beneath the seabed, Equinor's initiatives are pivotal in supporting global climate goals.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Best Low-Carbon ETFs and Stocks (3) Still, on the theme of energy-related investments is this article titled 3 Renewable Energy Stocks to Buy in 2025 and Hold for Decades. It's by James Brumley and found on fool.com. Here is some of what Mr. Brumley says about his picks. “1. Cameco (NYSE: CCJ) one of the planet's top suppliers of uranium, with access to plenty of high-grade reserves. Its two chief mining operations in Saskatchewan, Canada, are currently jointly capable of producing a total of 43 million pounds of high-grade uranium per year, but both could support more output at only marginally more cost… Do prepare for continued volatility from Cameco stock that reflects the continued volatility of uranium prices -- although maybe not quite as much as you might expect. Confidence in nuclear power as a clean source of electricity is slowly but surely improving, leveling out these swings. 2. Brookfield Renewable (BEPC -2.65%) (BEP -1.29%). (Yes, a second recommendation in this podcast.) If you feel confident that renewable energy as an industry is investment-worthy but you don't know where to start, consider a stake in Brookfield Renewable Corp. With it, you'll own a little of everything the business encompasses… There is one detail worth pointing out there. That is, this is not Brookfield Asset Management (BAM.TO), Brookfield Corporation (BN), or Brookfield Wealth Solutions (BNT). Although all of these companies are related, Brookfield Renewable is the only one with direct exposure to the alternative energy market. The others are simply involved in the management and marketing of Brookfield Renewable. 3. First Solar (NASDAQ: FSLR) First Solar stock is down nearly 40% from its June peak largely on concerns that President-elect Donald Trump isn't as supportive of solar power as his predecessor was. And maybe he isn't. The solar tax credits that boosted the business under President Joe Biden's watch are anything but guaranteed to last through Trump's tenure… The irony is that the analyst community is still calling for strong growth from First Solar regardless of who's occupying the White House. Last year's projected top-line growth of 29% is expected to be followed by 32% growth this year, followed by 21% revenue growth next year. Even producing half of that anticipated growth should shake this stock out of its current funk and rekindle a long-term advance.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Best Low-Carbon ETFs and Stocks (4) And, yes, another analyst article on the renewable energy theme — but with a very different angle. It's titled 2 Renewable Energy Stocks to Buy in 2025 and Hold for Decades by Leo Sun on aol.com. It was originally published on fool.com. “1. NuScale Power (NYSE: SMR) produces the only small modular reactors (SMRs) that have been certified with a Standard Design Approval (SDA) from the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). Its SMRs can be installed in vessels that are just 9 feet (2.7m) wide and 65 feet (20m) tall -- which makes them much easier to deploy than larger nuclear reactors. NuScale's modular designs are prefabricated, delivered, and assembled on-site. That approach reduces the costs and construction time of a working nuclear reactor. Its current reactor clusters are certified for up to 55 megawatts of electricity… NuScale's stock has already surged nearly 650% over the past 12 months in anticipation of that approval, but it still trades more than 20% below its all-time high from last November. Analysts only expect its revenue to rise 4% to $24 million in 2024. 2. CleanSpark (NASDAQ: CLSK) develops modular microgrids for wind, solar, and other renewable energy sources. These microgrids can be deployed as stand-alone systems or plugged into existing energy grids, and they're used to funnel energy into storage systems, backup generators, and load management solutions. CleanSpark initially developed these green energy systems for other companies, but it evolved into a Bitcoin miner upon acquiring ATL Data Centers in May 2021. It upgraded ATL's mining facilities with its technology to boost their efficiency and demonstrate that it was possible to mine Bitcoins with low-carbon energy… From fiscal 2024 to fiscal 2027, analysts expect its revenue and adjusted EBITDA to grow at a CAGR of 36% and 22%... That makes it a great long-term play if you expect Bitcoin's price to keep climbing and the renewable energy market to keep expanding.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Additional article not covered due to time constraints 1.

Participe do Evento Seleção 10x: https://lvnt.app/z986ol 02/12 - Bolsa -0,34%, Dólar R$ 6,065, PETZ3 +3% e AZUL4 -7% Por que a Bolsa performou assim? 1º. O Ibovespa futuro abriu em leve alta de 0,10% com investidores animados com minério e petróleo em alta bem como ADRs de Vale e Petrobras subindo um pouco, porém a combinação de três fatores fizeram a bolsa perder força e ir para o campo levemente negativo. O primeiro motivo foi as projeções do Focus com inflação mais alta em 2025, de 4,34% para 4,40%, com Selic de 12,63% para dezembro de 2025 versus 12,25% na semana passada e PIB de apenas 1,95% no próximo ano versus 3,20% em 2024. O segundo motivo foi a alta do dólar logo de manhã para até R$ 5,08, fechando a R$ 5,065, alta de 1,13% no dia, influenciado pelo moeda norte-americana que avançou 0,60% versus moedas fortes (euro, iene, libra esterlina, dólar canadense e mais duas moedas) em função dos juros longos dos EUA que subiram de 4,17% para 4,19% a.a. junto com a incerteza quanto a política comercial americana depois que Trump 2, tomar posse em 20/1/25. O terceiro motivo foi mais um dia de altas nas taxas de juros longo prazo no Brasil reflexo do dólar mais alto que tende a pressionar a inflação porque boa parte dos produtos brasileiros – de milho e soja a aço e celulose passando por derivados de petróleo – costuma subir nas semanas e meses seguintes a uma alta expressiva do dólar norte-americano, como foi agora com a moeda indo de R$ 5,40, em setembro, para mais de R$ 6,00 hoje – uma alta de 11% em três meses. O quarto motivo foi a ameaça de Trump de colocar um tarifa de importação de 100% aos produtos dos países do BRICS (Brasil, Rússia, Índia, China, África do Sul) caso eles parem de negociar em dólares seus respectivos produtos para adotar um nova moeda ou apoiar outra já existente. 2º. Na B3, 7 ações subiram entre as 15 ações mais negociadas com destaques para: PETR4 1,1% R$ 39,33, ABEV3 3,8% R$ 13,22, VALE3 0,7% R$ 59,18, B3SA3 1,5% R$ 9,40, prio3 0,4% R$ 40,31, ELET3 0,2% R$ 34,42. 3º. Já 8 ações caíram entre as 15 mais negociadas com destaques para: ITUB -0,9% R$ 32,28, BBDC4 -2,45 R$ 12,33, RENT3 -2,2% R$ 36,73, BBAS3 -0,8% R$ 24,56, ITSA4 R$ -1,5%. 4º. O preço do petróleo não aguentou a alta de 1% de manhã e fechou estável em US$ 71,8 por barril dentro do limite da volatilidade diária de -/+2%, e esse nível de preço preocupa porque se aproxima dos US$ 70 que é um suporte muito importante. O motivo do preço de US$ 86, em julho, para US$ 71,8 hoje é o excesso de oferta de petróleo diariamente pelos países da Opep+, responsável, por 35% da produção mundial, e países como EUA, Canadá, Brasil e Guianas que estão produzindo mais e exportando. A demanda mais fraca da China também explica a queda do preço do petróleo. Porém, só há uma solução de curto prazo para o preço do petróleo recuperar e voltar para US$ 75-US$ 80: os países da Opep+ concordarem com uma redução de produção na próxima reunião do grupo que ocorrerá em 5 de dezembro até 8. Se não vier uma redução significativa o preço do petróleo poderá ir a US$ 70. Se for a US$ 70, todos os países e cias. exportadoras de petróleo perderão e as ações das petrolíferas cairão.

Nach der Freude über das klare Wahlergebnis ist die Rally an den US-Börsen zumindest vorerst beendet. Zu den entscheidenden Bremsfaktoren gehören die neuen Inflationsdaten und das Comeback des Begriffs Trumpflation. Die von Donald Trump angekündigten wirtschaftspolitischen Maßnahmen könnten zu einem neuen Preisschub führen. Wie berechtigt ist die Sorge?Anschließend rückt mit Spotify ein Einzelwert ins Zentrum. Der Musikstreaming-Dienst hat die neue Bilanz präsentiert und qualifiziert sich damit für den Investment-Check. Im Anschluss geht es nach Deutschland.

According to a Harvard Business Review report, about 70% of change initiatives fail. So how can enablement help sales teams navigate large-scale transformations and come out stronger on the other side of change? Shawnna Sumaoang: Hi, and welcome to the Win-Win Podcast. I am your host, Shawnna Sumaoang. Join us as we dive into changing trends in the workplace and how to navigate them successfully. Here to discuss this topic is Jenna Siegel, the director of revenue enablement at InMoment. Thank you for joining us, Jenna. I would love for you to tell us about yourself, your background, and your role. Jenna Siegel: Thank you so much for having me. I’m excited to be here. I made a large shift to land myself into enablement. So I came actually from an academia background, teaching at the University of Illinois Chicago, while I was working through some postgraduate work, and I quickly realized that academia wasn’t a place that I wanted to land for the long term. Which left me with this really kind of humbling experience of what do I want to do with my life. And I think like many people in enablement, I landed myself in sales. I was in various go-to-market roles, whether that be service, sales, or customer success, and I really quickly got frustrated with like, the lack of resources and education in the corporate space. And of course, as someone who came from an education and academia background, I was a constant advocate for we need resources to get everyone to speak the same language, to get everyone to understand the same processes. So after having worked in go-to-market roles for several years, I landed a role within enablement and I’ve been there ever since for about six years now. SS: Jenna, we’re really excited to have you here on the podcast. So thank you so much for joining us. I know your team recently went through an acquisition, which can often bring significant change for sales teams. What best practices did you implement to help your teams effectively navigate through this transition? JS: Absolutely. So acquisitions are so tricky to navigate and I really feel like they’re fear-inducing for everyone involved. So with my team, I was leading revenue enablement at a company called ReviewTrackers that was acquired by my current company called InMoment. So ReviewTrackers was a really small organization with a very small enablement org. InMoment was actually a much larger organization without any true dedicated revenue enablement. So for us, it was so easy to step into this expanded role of leading enablement across the entire organization with truly preconceived notions of what we thought would drive success, mainly because we knew what drove success at our small little scrappy company called ReviewTrackers. So the biggest challenge for me and for my team post the acquisition was really just to be curious. Right. We constantly are preaching this to our sales reps throughout the discovery phase. Be curious, ask a lot of questions, and really learn about them and their business. And I think we often forget to do that in enablement. We come in and we’re like, I know what drove success. I know that doing this sales methodology is going to work because look at the success it drove for my prior business. So we really had to adopt the same methodology in our transition. And this didn’t just involve meeting with the stakeholders and with senior leadership and presenting our expertise and our plans and getting their feedback, but I think the most important thing that we did was really step into meeting with the frontline folks, those that are executing on the role day to day and really learn about what are their challenges, what are their enablement desires, what do they wish they had, but Had never had because they didn’t have a revenue enablement dedicated role. So it was a new function to in the moment and we stepped in and I think it was split. Some people thought, Oh gosh, these people are going to come in and they’re going to make our lives miserable and they’re going to implement all these trainings and we’re, it’s going to pull us off the field. You know, our biggest strategy in the acquisition was driving trust and confidence across our teams before we ever were able to present a plan. SS: Well, it sounds like you guys did a phenomenal job really driving that trust and confidence across your teams. I know unifying the go-to-market teams is essential during these types of transitions. What challenges have you encountered in aligning your go-to-market teams and how did you overcome some of these challenges? JS: Yeah, absolutely. So I think the biggest thing is we weren’t just unifying teams, we were unifying regions. So we had three separate regions that were functioning pretty independently from each other, as well as teams, whether that be sales, success, ADRs, or our account management team that were also functioning independently from one another. And one of the first things that we identified was that there was a vast amount of technology and go-to-market processes that differed across the org, especially because of the number of mergers and acquisitions that they had gone through even prior to acquiring review trackers. And I strongly believe that these fragmented technologies and processes Also aid in creating a fragmented go-to-market organization. So I’m so grateful that I sit under a really brilliant revenue operations team that I could partner with and they could partner with enablement. So we could really understand how the technologies and processes were being used and where there was room for optimization. This was really our first step in trying to figure out how we were going to unify the teams and how we were going to get everyone working. Together and in the same direction. Don’t get me wrong. All these teams were doing really brilliant work, but it was very fragmented in nature. So in doing that, we explored how can we string together the processes and the technologies to drive adoption. So for example, we’re a MEDIC shop. Post acquisition, we implemented MEDIC methodology. And I think it’s really common to introduce selling methodologies and send everyone on their merry way and just hope that it works. You know, we can implement it for sales, we can implement it for success, we can even implement it for our account management team, and I just really hope that they put it into practice. But we had the really unique opportunity to rework the systems and the processes alongside introducing some of these new methodologies. So we were able to layer in, here’s the new methodology, let’s practice it. Let’s get it, you know, we know it’s not new to the go-to market organization. Here’s how also your technology is going to hold you accountable. So this kind of set the groundwork for how we implemented our CRM system. How we set up sales stages with exit criteria, how we deploy information through the LMS system, and it can be role-specific, but the same line of thinking to all these different go-to-market organizations. How we set up Highspot, and how Highspot is organized for all of our sales reps to use, and our go-to-market orgs to use. That was our biggest thing to tackle when we thought about how we were going to unify the teams. SS: Mm. Particularly in a merger acquisition, I know sometimes employees can feel uneasy as team structures and roles and dynamics evolve. What’s your best advice on motivating teams and reps in particular to really ease them into the process of change? JS: Yeah, I think it all goes back to communication, right? We know it’s essential to get leadership alignment first. That’s number one. If leaders are aligned and bought into the changes and brought into the processes to help define the processes, we know it’s going to trickle down to their teams. But also, we wanted our frontline people to have a voice in these changes. Silos, like especially for InMoment, we’ve seen this happen, can only bring about further anxiety and defiance and actually adopting the process and burnout employees. So we created these group of tiger teams, where we brought together leaders and individual contributors, and into these teams to help us define the processes, and poke holes through our processes. And that trickled down to the greater team because they were bought in. They could be, you know, the leaders of their team. They can advocate for these processes and these systems. And that’s where we see the most amount of success and hoping that people aren’t anxious or hoping that people can process these changes. SS: Yeah, I think buy-in is absolutely critical. From your perspective, what is maybe the strategic advantage of an enablement platform when navigating change like this? JS: Yeah, that’s a great question. And I love enablement platforms. I’m a huge believer that even the smallest go-to-market org and the smallest enablement team, it’s very hard to be effective without having a platform in place. I like to split this out into two pillars why we think enablement platforms are important or how we really use it to our advantage. One is how we deploy enablement. So how we even go about deploying enablement? The second is how we track the efficacy of the changes. And the efficacy of the enablement that we’re putting out into the field. So, regarding how we deploy enablement. Our enablement org, here at InMoment, although it has grown since the acquisition, is very small and very scrappy. And we as a small team, need to be able to scale. And when I hear people say scale, my first thought is always, Oh gosh, everything’s just going to be LMS courses. Nothing’s going to be live. We’re not going to have hands-on training. And I don’t believe that to be the case. I don’t think that scaling for our team means abandoning live training or completely avoiding the face-to-face aspect of enablement. I think it’s actually quite important in this kind of blended learning environment post-COVID and post-remote teams. Deploying enablement for us means What is going to happen after we have run the initial enablement? I quote this study to like nausea with my team that 30 days post enablement, 70 percent of the content is forgotten if we don’t do any sort of follow-up. So we really like to use our systems to give those reminders, to make the content continuously reappear post enablement. So maybe it’s using Highspot to actually send content newsletters. We deployed enablement. We know these are the pieces of content that really coincide with the enablement. We send monthly enablement newsletters actually using Highspot digital rooms, which people love so that it’s, the content stays front and center. Or maybe it’s deploying an activity in our LMS system. Hey, we ran this enablement session. Here’s this quick activity or challenge that we want you to engage in. Or also maybe it’s gamifying it through our systems to make learning a little bit more fun. We recently did Highspot scavenger hunts post-enablement. We launched a new product line. We had what we call expertise exchanges where we really shared best practices amongst the team. And part of that was a Highspot scavenger hunt of like, who can find the most relevant stats related to this product and related to the value of the product and share it with the larger team. People loved it, right? It’s different. It’s not your typical sit in hour-long live sessions where we know that. 15 minutes in we’re losing people to their email and their slack or it’s not, you know, all of a sudden we’re opening up a breakout room on Zoom and we see the attendance drop 50 percent because people just don’t maybe have anxiety around that which is also understandable, but we also need to combat. So this way of gamifying it through our systems and through our enablement platforms is really important. So that’s our first pillar. Our second pillar is how can we use our enablement systems. To measure the efficacy of our efforts. We deploy surveys. I didn’t mention this yet, but Amoment is a customer experience technology platform. We’re really big on how can we understand our customer’s experience. And here in enablement, we think our customers are all the internal folks that are on the receiving end. Surveys give us really great feedback. But they only tell a portion of the story. We can get survey feedback that’s like, everything was amazing. We love this enablement session. It was fun. I learned a lot. And then a month down the road, the data is telling us a very different story. And we really try to take a holistic approach to how we understand data. So if we run an enablement session on a product launch, anytime we run a larger initiative, my enablement team, we measure various data points to really understand where it is that we need to go next. We can look at the lagging indicators, that’s like financials and deal velocity and all of that. But I think a lot of the really good information and the juicy information lives within our enablement platforms. You know, we include attendance and completion data point. There’s quite a bit that goes into the data that we’re looking at. Conversational intelligence data, how they’re actually speaking about it in our field, but enablement metrics like Highspot metrics are really important to us. Perhaps it’s that we’ve deployed this enablement. We’re seeing a huge uptick in how they’re using the content. And then the next month, it’s not unique to InMoment. We see a huge dip down and all of a sudden no one’s using it. Well, that tells us we need to resurface this in some way, shape, or form. We need to figure out how we’re going to get people talking about this again. So it really is our signal for where do we need to re-engage and where do we need to re-evaluate our strategy. SS: I love hearing that. Shifting gears a little bit, content governance has always been a big focus for you this year with 58 percent of InMoment’s content now well governed. Congratulations. How have you been able to optimize governance and what impact has this had on your team as they navigate change? JS: Yeah, I strongly feel that we had a Bigger mountain than usual to tackle when it comes to Highspot, um, particularly because my team, again, there was an absence of a revenue enablement team at InMoment for a long time, and my team acquired Highspot, and it was a tool that was launched out to the masses without any real strategy around how it was going to be maintained. So when we acquired Highspot as a team, we had a lot to tackle. One is that there was a lot of outdated content on there. I think I found content back from 2009. Which is problematic and also just unnecessary because Highspot provides the governance tools that you would need to make sure that content is refreshed. So when we had initial conversations with our go-to market team, when the acquisition happened, I said, how are you all using Highspot? The number one answer is, Oh, we don’t look in there. There’s too much outdated information. So my team started by doing a content audit. We pulled a list of all of the content that lived within Highspot, with how many views it had. We really used the data in Highspot, how many views it had, when it was last viewed, when it was last updated, when it was originally uploaded. Unfortunately, nothing had feedback owners listed on it. So we really didn’t even know who owned the content outside of original authors or whoever uploaded it originally. So we, as an enablement org, had our product marketing teams and our marketing teams go through an exercise of marking content as. It’s outdated, remove it. It’s still relevant content, but needs updating or it’s good to go and keep it as it is. In doing that, we got our content down to, I want to say about 400 to 500 pieces of content from thousands and thousands of pieces of content, which was really big. Our next step was actually working with our go-to-market teams and creating a tiger team to figure out how do we want this organized in the system. People did not know the searching functionality well enough to be able to find the information they needed. And there were no logical spots set up in the system where they could just click in and say, Oh yeah, I’m looking for a pitch doc, so I’m going to click here, or I’m looking for a blog or a gated asset, I’m going to click here. So we worked with the various different go-to-market teams, customer success, sales, ADRs, to figure out a unified way of organizing the content within a system with the relevant filters. We know our ADRs want to filter by buyer persona. That’s how they’re going to market. And that’s how they’re prospecting. But we know that our customer success folks might not want to be only filtering by buyer persona. So we created what we think are very logical spots with the appropriate filters for the appropriate teams. And then I think the most important piece of this is that every single piece of content is required to have a content owner, a feedback owner so that people know if there is an issue with the content, it’s not a giant hole in the system where you’re just stuck with this outdated pieces of content. You have someone that you can go directly to and say, hey, this isn’t up to speed. This isn’t landing in the form. Or this has a customer who’s no longer a customer and therefore we need to take it out. That was a big piece of the puzzle as well as putting expiration dates on everything. So everything has a six-month expiration date at the six-month period. The feedback owners can review the content, mark it as still applicable, or say this needs to be removed off the system to make sure that we never get into the state that we had before. And also just a big shout-out to Highspot on that one. That was a massive undertaking and a huge project which the Highspot team helped us out on a weekend when we took the system down. They were just Malcolm, our customer success rep. He was really there to help provide us with industry best practices. I don’t think we could have done it alone and in a silo. SS: Well, I love hearing about project wins like that. In a recent webinar, you actually mentioned that your team holds monthly expertise exchanges to promote peer learning. Could you share more about this practice and how you foster a culture of ongoing learning? JS: Yeah, our expertise exchanges were created because when we stepped into the role, there was a lot of silo work going on, and we knew that enablement was never going to be effective if we did a one-and-done approach. So we created a series of expertise exchanges. We’re on a monthly cadence. We get together the various teams and we really take a look at, well, what enablement did we run this month? What was our focus? And it leaks over month to month. For example, if we’re running product training, And then we’re also running a methodology. We try and blend the two together to really make it a holistic training that the enablement efforts aren’t even siloed within itself. Every month we look at what enablement we run? What data were we trying to influence? And we figure out a theme for our expertise exchanges. So, for example, one month that theme might be a product line, right, reputation management in the field. We assign them through our LMS some pre work to do prior to these expertise exchanges so everyone comes prepared. That usually is, for example, uploading a prospecting email that you sent and then post the enablement session or providing a pitch deck or a recording of a call. We try to make it things that they’re already doing. So it’s not seen as, Oh gosh, I have to go do a mock demo or I have to create a fake pitch deck. We want it to be things that they’re actually doing within the field and it shouldn’t be a lift for them. And it’s also not a lift for enablement. It’s an easy one for enablement. Enablement reviews. Those we come together as a go-to market org. And we just call upon people. Hey, I know you all have been putting this into practice, would love to hear where you’re seeing wins, where you’re not seeing wins, and really just share amongst each other. People are very eager to share their wins, which is great. So very rarely do we have to call upon people, but we also have the submissions in advance so we can take a look at them. And if we have that moment of like no one wanting to share, call out their wins for them, right? Like, hey, I saw Caroline, that you worked on this email that actually. Our outreach data shows got 40 percent reply rate to, can you talk about your email? It’s a really great way to get people to see how they’re actually putting the enablement strategy into practice in the actual field. And also we just create a library for them in Highspot as well of like, here’s the examples of when so you can easily find them and go off and do the same. If someone else is seeing success, you should absolutely adopt that and you should absolutely put it into practice yourself. SS: I think that’s fantastic advice that our entire audience can maybe even take and apply in their organizations. As you’ve expanded and evolved your enablement strategy, what key metrics would you recommend tracking to effectively drive change? JS: Yeah, absolutely. I’m sure everyone preaches this, but I really do sit under the most brilliant revenue operations team and most brilliant revenue operations organization, which is great because I have access to all the data that I could ever possibly need. And I think like many enablement leaders, I bucket our metrics into leading and lagging indicators of success. And leading and lagging indicators of influence, which I don’t think is a unique model to be using, but it’s a very effective model. So the leading is the data that myself and my enablement team, we can directly tie back to our enablement efforts. Things like attendance and completion rates and challenge scores, and even conversational intelligence trackers within our CI system. Those are really easy metrics for us to. Be able to track to start to tell part of the story. I think the lagging indicators are so important to prove our value to the larger business and to continuously show how we are aligned with whatever it is that the business is trying to focus on. And those lagging indicators are ones that we would also love to be like, yes, enablement. Had a direct influence on, but there’s other, you know, influences that come into play there. I often find that those lagging indicators are the hardest. Bits of data to get access to in the business. But as I mentioned, I have like the greatest revenue operations team. And specifically, I have a colleague on my team, a coworker, Trevor, who builds out the most brilliant lagging indicator dashboards. He even does a good job of like bringing in the leading indicators to that dashboard. And this is what we really use month over month enablement strategy. So these are things like deal velocity. These are things like the financials of like, if we’re doing enablement on a specific product line, are we seeing an uptick in the revenue that’s coming in from those product lines? Our pipeline data, even outreach data and data specific to our tools. We really deep dive into this data month over month. And we actually have like a monthly data review session where we look at our leading indicators, lagging indicators, try and drive correlation, but also. It’s not just for proving out the efficacy of our efforts. It’s really figuring out, okay, based on this data, where is it that we are going to go next? And I think when we’re looking at data, we do it in two ways. One, we have quarterly priority sessions amongst my enablement team, where we all sit down and we figure out, okay, what are the biggest like lagging indicator data drivers that we need to have influence on this quarter? What’s data telling us? Is it retention? Is it pipeline? Whatever that is. And then month over month we look a little bit more granular at the data to figure out are we actually having the impact that we need to have. From a business perspective. SS: I think those are definitely some of the key metrics as change efforts. Typically, though, they kind of progress through various stages and often require time to fully implement. How do you maintain momentum as new processes become solidified in the long term? JS: Yeah, we love to take an ever-boarding approach. So we onboarding new people. We also do it when we’re launching large-scale enablement efforts. I actually think the key to making enablement sticky is providing leaders with the resources to coach on this on an ongoing basis. We are a small team. We can’t scale to have on one conversations with everyone and figure out where it’s falling short, and where we need to make adjustments. Perhaps Mike is better than Anthony. We don’t have those resources to be able to get really granular into the people aspect of this. But the managers do and that’s their job and they want to be doing this. So we like to think about when we launch an enablement series, Look at the data first. We figure out why are we doing this enablement. Is it necessary? Are we doing this because we have our own agenda or does the data align with us? We then meet with the managers first and we actually run almost the same version of the enablement session with them with some caveats why are we running this? What’s the purpose of this? What are we going to be presenting? And then the last part of that is managers, what do we need from you post enablement? Maybe it’s that we need you to listen to one call per rep per month and provide them feedback in the system so that we can gather that data and see how this is sticking. Maybe it’s that we have created a coaching template so that you can have these conversations in your one-to-one. And by the way, upload those into one of our systems, obviously on a private basis, so that we can review those as well. We want to be able to provide the leaders with the resources that they need to help us make enablement sticky. And then we run the enablement session for their people. And then when we’re doing the expertise exchange, we also have a one-month retro with the leaders where we talk about what are you seeing in the field. What’s working? What’s not working? A very similar exchange session that we do for our. People but with managers. We want the managers to have a voice in where we go next as well. SS: I love that. Last question, Jenna. Looking ahead, how do you envision evolving your enablement strategy to keep pace with your business’s growth? JS: Yeah, absolutely. We actually just had our enablement strategy meeting for 2025 and really starting to look at the data. And actually, as of recently, my team acquired product training as well. So we now have an even better opportunity to kind of align all training across the business and make sure that we’re all working in a singular direction. Although for a lot of new teams as well too, right, we’re not just focused on revenue enablement now. We’re also focused on the technical teams from a product training perspective. So, alignment across the org and how we approach enablement. I’m also selfishly very excited about this because I get a lot of new unique perspectives from my team considering I have new folks on my team now as well who have had a different view vantage point of enablement across the org. But also I want my team to continuously get to a proactive state. And I think we can only get there by being brutally honest about our current progress and using data to drive decisions. I love what my team has done thus far in using data, but The data is one piece. We need to storytell with the data. We really need to make it make sense for everyone else within the business. And we need to make it make sense for us so that we can be proactive. We have like one rule on my team and it’s, you’re not allowed to bring an ego to work and think that your way is the best way. And during our enablement strategy meeting, I started off with everyone needing to challenge us, and challenge me as a leader. I don’t know the best way forward all the time. You all have great ideas that I have never even thought of. We all need to continue to challenge each other, use data to make data-driven decisions, and really continue to retro and think about, did this work? Was this effective? Was this not effective? All while being proactive and really, you know, scaling our team. It’s like an impossible task that we have as enablement, but I think it’s possible with the right people and with the right strategy. SS: I’m excited to see where you all go. Thank you, Jenna, so much for this. JS: Yeah, thank you so much for having me. It was great. SS: And thank you to our audience for listening to this episode of the Win-Win Podcast. Be sure to tune in next time for more insights on how you can maximize enablement success with Highspot.

In this episode of The STR Data Lab, Jamie and Scott broadcast live from the VRMA conference in Phoenix, Arizona, where they break down the key issues shaping the short-term rental industry today. They emphasize why events like VRMA are more important than ever, offering a crucial space for the industry to come together and tackle pressing challenges head-on. The conversation kicks off with the aftermath of hurricanes Helena and Milton, which caused a wave of cancellations across Florida and North Carolina. Asheville alone saw over 85,000 nights canceled, while Atlanta experienced a 50% spike in bookings as people sought temporary accommodations. These disruptions are expected to lead to a dip in home prices and rising insurance premiums across Florida, adding new challenges for property owners. Jamie and Scott then shift focus to the U.S. market's September performance, which fell short of expectations with a modest 2.9% increase in nights booked. The growth in supply is slowing, particularly in urban areas, where a 3.1% decline reflects ongoing struggles with regulatory issues, weak demand, and heightened competition from hotels—leading to closures like Frontdesk. On the bright side, ADRs were up 2.7% in September, and October is off to a strong start, with demand fueled by events like Halloween and solid holiday bookings on the horizon. Jamie wraps up the episode by celebrating his first short-term rental booking and sharing a sneak peek of his new YouTube series, which you can catch on the AirDNA YouTube channel.

In this special episode of Good Morning Hospitality EU, Leo Walton and Simon Lehmann, CEO of AJL Atelier, explore the evolving landscape of the European short-term rental market. Simon shares his expert insights on the ongoing fragmentation of the market, emphasizing how the sector remains hyperlocal, with even the largest players holding a small market share. He highlights the role of technology in allowing smaller property managers to compete while addressing the growing impact of regulations, particularly in urban areas, and the challenges they pose to operators. Simon predicts tougher times ahead for the industry, with falling ADRs and an oversupply of properties. However, he also identifies opportunities for growth in budget travel and niche sectors like camping. The discussion wraps up with a look at how AI could transform property search processes and optimize guest experiences. OTAs remain dominant but face potential disruption from niche platforms. Tune in to learn how property managers can navigate these changes and position themselves for success in 2024 and beyond. — Good Morning Hospitality is part of the Hospitality.FM podcast network and a Hospitality.FM Original.

In this episode, we review the pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, adverse effects, monitoring, medicinal chemistry, and more of loop diuretics. Key Concepts Loop diuretics (furosemide, torsemide, bumetanide, ethacrynic acid) are the most potent type of diuretic and are used to relieve edema. Loop diuretics cause an increased loss of sodium, chloride, potassium, hydrogen, magnesium, and calcium ions into the urine. Excessive loss of these ions manifests as hypokalemia, hypomagnesemia, and metabolic alkalosis. Loop diuretics have an S-shaped dose response curve – a minimum dose is required for diuresis and a “ceiling” effect occurs at higher doses (leading to more ADRs). Doses should be individualized based on the clinical response of the patient. Ethacrynic acid is incorrectly used in patients with a “sulfa” allergy. The other loop diuretics contain a sulfa moiety but are safe for use in patients with “sulfa” allergy (e.g. allergy to sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim). The TRANSFORM-HF trial strongly suggests that there is no clinical difference between furosemide and torsemide. References Rachoin JS, Cerceo EA. Four nephrology myths debunked.
