If you're a service-based business owner aiming for seven figures, this conversation offers practical guidance and expert-level strategy for navigating the fast-changing landscape of AI and automation.How AI is Reshaping Sales, Content, and Scaling for Service-Based EntrepreneursUrsula emphasizes that AI isn't just another passing trend—it's a non-negotiable shift in how business will be done moving forward. Drawing parallels to the industrial revolution, she encourages entrepreneurs to explore AI playfully but seriously. Tools like ChatGPT, when customized and trained properly, can replace hours of manual work by handling sales outreach, content drafts, and even internal decision-making simulations. It's not about replacing people, she explains, but amplifying capacity and creativity.One of the most valuable takeaways from the episode is the use of custom GPTs and AI “agents” to streamline repetitive processes. Ursula's team developed a proprietary GPT to help clients write compelling sales emails, while also using agent swarms to tackle multi-step projects like client onboarding and marketing campaigns. Josh expands on this with a recommendation: simulate a team of AI personas (e.g., SEO coach, marketing strategist) to generate well-rounded business decisions quickly. When applied thoughtfully, AI can act like a virtual C-suite that's available 24/7.Finally, Ursula introduces The CEO Table, her dual-coach program designed to help service-based business owners scale from early six figures to seven. She and her co-coach Rebecca Hall offer clients a 360-degree view of business growth—blending mindset, sales, finance, and systems optimization. With personalized coaching, access to automation tools, and expert support, clients in the program fast-track their results while reducing burnout.

What does it really mean to be a thought leader? According to publicist Claire Mason, it's not about self-proclaimed titles; it's about consistently delivering valuable, well-crafted insights. True authority is built on substance, not hype. Mason's advice from her recent podcast interview is a must-listen for anyone building their professional brand: Embrace Imposter Syndrome: That feeling of self-doubt is a sign you're pushing your boundaries. Use it as fuel to maintain high standards and keep growing. Prioritize Earned Media: Credibility is earned, not bought. Unpaid editorial coverage in media outlets builds far more trust than any paid ad. Balance AI and Human Content: Use AI tools for routine tasks, but always add your own personal touch. Your unique experiences and insights are the only things an algorithm can't replicate. Building your media presence takes time and persistence. Start small with local publications, and let each win pave the way to bigger opportunities.

"We've built a smarter AI — not just to summarize performance, but to help you win more business." — Ted Lee, SmarTrak At Cisco Live 2025 in San Diego, Ted Lee, founder of SmarTrak, joined Technology Reseller News publisher Doug Green to announce the launch of SmarTrak.AI v3 — a major upgrade designed to reshape how Cisco partners and end customers manage lifecycle, subscriptions, and enterprise agreements. The big news? SmarTrak is now serving two audiences: Cisco partners: SmarTrak v3 offers a prescriptive, AI-powered platform that enables sellers, CX teams, and renewals specialists to drive more efficient lifecycle management, retention, and expansion. End customers: For the first time, SmarTrak's solution is being made available directly to enterprise users, helping them monitor their internal Cisco assets, optimize spend, and better manage long-term agreements. “Partners use it to grow business,” said Lee. “Now, end customers can use it to control spend and manage their Cisco investment proactively.” Backed by enhanced AI capabilities, SmarTrak.AI v3 delivers high-level business summaries, proactive alerts, and actionable insights tailored to real-world Cisco implementations. According to Lee, beta testers have already reported “tremendous adoption and growth within weeks.” Built from the ground up in just the past two years, SmarTrak's platform was purpose-built to take advantage of the latest in AI innovation — and now v3 replaces even its own earlier AI stack with a more robust, intelligent engine. With growing demand from both partners and enterprise buyers, SmarTrak is poised to become a key intelligence layer in Cisco lifecycle strategy. “We're seeing interest from customers who never had this kind of visibility before,” Lee shared.

In this episode of Tech in the Arts, Dr. Brett Ashley Crawford of the Arts Management and interviews Bill Updegraff, founder and CEO of Grapeseed Media, a programmatic digital advertising firm. Grapeseed Media, established in 2013, has grown into a trusted partner for brands and agencies in digital advertising, earning recognition on Inc.'s 5000 list of fastest-growing private companies. In this episode, Updegraff explains that Grapeseed Media's initial goal was to provide arts organizations with access to programmatic advertising, a concept he once thought was exclusive to larger corporations. The company's role has since evolved from introducing programmatic advertising to guiding clients through its complexities. He highlights three approaches to programmatic advertising: in-house management, managed service partnerships, or working with a single, agnostic programmatic partner like Grapeseed Media, which provides unbiased access to all programmatic channels and consolidated reporting. Updegraff also differentiates programmatic advertising from search and paid social media, noting that programmatic is more "open market" compared to the "walled gardens" of platforms like Google and Meta. He also discusses the growing integration of programmatic into digital out-of-home advertising, offering hyper-targeting and data collection capabilities. Of course, they also discuss the ethical uses of AI in marketing, particularly in data analysis and creative ideation.

Karl Bryan welcomes AI strategist Caroline Hinton for a deep dive into the rapidly evolving role of artificial intelligence in the world of business coaching. Together, they break down how coaches are leveraging AI for efficiency, measurable ROI, client relationships, and industry relevance—while also addressing key ethical safeguards and practical tips for new coaches. Key Topics & Takeaways: 1. AI's Impact in Coaching AI is already being used (sometimes secretly) by executives and their teams, regardless of top-down adoption. It acts as an indispensable tool, not a threat—think of it as a “brilliant but blunt analyst” that's now part of every leadership circle. Three big shifts: stealth adoption, compressed decision cycles, and democratized simulation with AI tools. 2. How Coaches Are Using AI Massive time savings: AI can organize, summarize, and document calls and workshops in minutes instead of hours. Enhanced client relationships: With routine admin handled by AI, coaches focus on deeper human connections and tailored follow-ups. Powerful diagnostics: Tools like Profit Acceleration Software (PAS) quickly generate profit opportunity roadmaps with minimal data entry, saving time and impressing clients. 3. Demonstrating Value & ROI AI bridges the industry's “credibility gap” by providing both qualitative and quantitative proof of progress. Tools can analyze and track changes in mindset or business performance, helping coaches and clients see tangible results and ROI, updating results in real time. 4. Ethical Considerations Caroline's “Three Cs” of AI ethics: Consent (transparent use and permission), Containment (clear data boundaries and privacy), and Clarity (explainable, source-based results). Coaches should update contracts, anonymize sensitive information, and consider keeping an audit trail of AI interactions to build trust. 5. Advice for New Coaches Treat AI fluency like learning a new sport: start with prompt crafting and develop a regular practice routine. Focus on a “pilot loop”: select a single workflow to automate, measure improvement, and iterate. Harness free online training (from ChatGPT Academy, Google, YouTube) to build AI skills quickly and effectively. 6. Avoiding Overwhelm Filter decisions through: Bottleneck (where do you lose most time?), Anchor (pick one main tool), and Layer (slowly add new tools). Start small, evaluate results, and scale up as you go. 7. Staying Relevant in an AI World Differentiation comes from combining AI-driven insight, compelling storytelling, and an irreplaceable human touch. AI streamlines precision and analysis; coaches add value through empathy, leadership, and psychological depth. Embrace AI as your “superpower,” not a replacement for your unique human perspective. Notable Quotes: “AI is already in the room. It's a tool, not a threat.” “The best opportunity for coaches now is to help clients make sense of AI—decode, challenge, and humanize it.” “At the end of the day... that ability to connect at a human level, to make a difference, to be heard, to influence—are absolutely critical. AI just multiplies your impact.” Resource Links: Profit Acceleration Software by Focused.com ChatGPT Academy For more strategies on elevating your business coaching practice and leveraging cutting-edge AI, check out previous episodes or visit Focused.com.
