In this episode of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo works with Dan Wentzel through one of the most critical inflection points in the entire journey so far. After consistently taking action, making offers, and having conversations, Dan finds himself stuck in a frustrating cycle—doing the work, but expecting the same disappointing outcome every time.   What unfolds is a powerful shift away from tactics and into the internal game. Alex identifies the real issue immediately: it's not a lack of knowledge, resources, or opportunity—it's a mindset problem. More specifically, it's the expectation that deals won't work out, which is quietly influencing everything from tone and confidence to how Dan shows up in conversations with sellers.   This episode pulls back the curtain on how belief, energy, and communication directly impact results. From self-sabotage and low confidence to timid conversations and lack of frame control, Alex breaks down how these subtle factors are costing opportunities—and how to fix them.   But more importantly, the conversation introduces a new way forward. Instead of trying to control every outcome or force deals to work, the focus shifts to letting go, showing up consistently, and trusting the process. By reframing expectations, protecting confidence, and communicating with conviction, Dan is challenged to break the cycle and step into a new level of performance.   This episode is a turning point—where the realization hits that success isn't just about what you do, but how you think, how you show up, and what you believe is possible.   ⸻   You'll Learn How To:   Break the cycle of expecting negative outcomes from your efforts Identify and eliminate self-sabotaging thought patterns Communicate with more confidence and authority in seller conversations Shift from outcome-based thinking to process-based execution Protect your confidence as your most valuable asset Show up with energy and conviction that builds trust and credibility   ⸻   What You'll Learn in This Episode:   [1:33] Why feeling stuck and discouraged is more common than you think [3:11] Dan's frustration: doing the work but seeing the same results [5:01] The hidden problem: expecting deals to fail before they start [6:20] Why mindset—not tactics—is the real bottleneck [7:49] Protecting confidence as the #1 job of an entrepreneur [9:25] How low confidence shows up in conversations with sellers [11:03] The impact of timid tone and lack of frame control [13:05] Why belief must match communication [14:24] Self-sabotage: how your expectations shape your outcomes [16:05] The shift from chasing deals to evaluating opportunities [18:05] Why sellers need to feel your certainty and conviction [20:06] Contagious enthusiasm and how it influences results [22:28] The importance of asking better questions—not more questions [24:57] Choosing the story you tell yourself about your progress [27:32] Why consistency guarantees results over time [29:50] Letting go of control and trusting the process [31:45] The role of faith and releasing pressure [34:20] Practical ways to shift your energy before key conversations [36:30] Focusing on helping—not closing—the deal [38:45] Why one mindset shift can unlock everything   ⸻   Who This Episode Is For:   Investors who feel stuck despite taking consistent action Listeners struggling with confidence in conversations Anyone dealing with discouragement after repeated "no's" Entrepreneurs who know what to do but aren't seeing results People ready to break through mental barriers and level up   ⸻   Why You Should Listen:   Most people think they need better strategies or more opportunities.   In reality, they need a better mindset.   This episode shows how your expectations, energy, and belief system directly impact your results—and why even the best strategy won't work if your mindset is working against you.   If you've been doing the work but not seeing the results, this conversation will help you identify what's really holding you back—and give you the tools to finally break through.   ⸻   Follow Alex Pardo here:   Alex Pardo Website: https://alexpardo.com/ Alex Pardo Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/alexpardo15 Alex Pardo Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alexpardo25 Alex Pardo YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@AlexPardo Storage Wins Website: https://storagewins.com/   ⸻   Have conversations with at least three storage owners, brokers, private lenders, or equity partners inside the Storage Wins Facebook Group.

After walking away from football, Dan Brody felt like he had lost the identity that had defined him for years. What started as partying and social connection slowly evolved from alcohol and weed into ecstasy, cocaine, and eventually oxy's. An overdose in his childhood bedroom became the moment that changed everything.In this episode, Dan shares the psychological vacuum that can follow the loss of purpose, structure, and tribe, especially for athletes and high performers. He opens up about why substances initially felt less like escape and more like belonging, and how recovery in Los Angeles helped him rebuild a life rooted in connection instead of chaos.Today, Dan is the SVP of Membership at The Maze, a membership-based social club in Manhattan designed around a radical idea: people deserve meaningful community that doesn't revolve around alcohol. From movie nights and live events to notable speakers and a top-tier culinary program, The Maze is creating a social ecosystem where sobriety feels expansive instead of restrictive.This conversation explores identity loss, addiction, recovery, fatherhood, community, and the growing movement toward substance-free connection in a culture that often confuses drinking with living. It's a story about discovering that the thing many people are actually searching for is not the substance itself, but the feeling of being seen.Today's episode is brought to you by ⁠⁠⁠⁠Seasons ⁠⁠⁠in Malibu. For over 18 years, Seasons has been a sanctuary for individuals seeking to reclaim their lives from addiction and mental health challenges. Our story began with a simple but profound vision: To create a luxurious sanctuary for individuals struggling with addiction or mental health issues, where they can receive the finest, evidence-based treatment in the world.Built on Compassion, Driven by ExcellenceWhat started as a small number of compassionate professionals has grown into one of the nation's most respected luxury treatment centers. But growth has never meant losing sight of what matters most—the individual engaging with our therapists, one-on-one, taking the courageous first step toward healing.From the beginning, we understood that truly transformative treatment requires more than clinical protocols. It demands a personalized approach, led by the most qualified professionals, in an environment that nurtures the whole person. That's why we've assembled a team where every primary therapist holds a Doctorate in Psychology - a distinction virtually unmatched in our field.Check out ⁠⁠⁠⁠Seasons Malibu⁠⁠⁠⁠ online or call 1-866-314-5160 for more information.Connect with The Maze on InstagramConnect with Seasons on ⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠DM me on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Message me on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Listen AD FREE & workout with me on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Connect with me on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email me chasingheroine@gmail.comSee you next week!

On today's episode, I'm joined by Mark Manson, New York Time's bestselling author and creator, to talk about how to stop caring what other people think and start building a life rooted in purpose. We dive into the psychology behind why we're so preoccupied with others' opinions, including the “spotlight effect,” and how that fear keeps so many people stuck. Mark shares why the goal isn't to stop caring entirely, but to care more about what truly matters, and how to figure out what you're actually willing to be disliked for. We also discuss how to build self-belief through small wins, why purpose doesn't have to come from your career, and how to create a more balanced, meaningful life without tying your identity to one thing. If you have ever felt held back by fear of judgment or unsure of your direction, this episode is for you.

I Constantly Embarass Myself and Here's Why

The real reason your business isn't scaling may surprise you. In this episode of Sharkpreneur, Seth Greene interviews Robert Indries, Managing Partner at Elkridge Advisors, who explains how his firm helps business owners grow, optimize, and ultimately exit by identifying systemic issues, improving operations, and increasing company valuation. He highlights the critical roles of financial analysis, operational independence, and an outside perspective in transforming a business into a scalable, sellable asset. Key Takeaways:→ Scaling is easier when starting from an established revenue base. → Every recurring issue in a company indicates a missing system.→ A business that depends on the owner is not yet a true asset. → External guidance is necessary to break through growth plateaus.→ Real growth comes from optimizing structure, not just increasing revenue. Robert Indries is an internationally recognized entrepreneur and business strategist who has generated over $500 million in results for his clients over the past decade. Featured by Entrepreneur.com as an “International Tycoon,” he owns eight businesses producing consistent seven-figure revenues, with operations spanning four continents and serving thousands of clients worldwide. With a background in hardware engineering, Robert has led more than 200 innovative projects across 19 industries, helping companies improve key performance metrics and achieve strong returns. He has traveled over 100,000 miles to deliver keynote presentations in three languages to audiences around the globe. Today, he leverages his expertise in engineering and scalable systems to help clients maximize value in mergers and acquisitions. A devoted family man, Robert prioritizes meaningful time with his loved ones. Connect With Robert:Website: https://elkridgeadvisors.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/robertindries/

On today's episode, we welcome Allyson Mandelbaum, Founder & CEO of Shady Lady — a women's hat brand redefining fit, function, and confidence by designing hats specifically made for women. After spending over 20 years as a reality TV producer, Allyson made a bold career pivot at 40 to solve a problem she personally experienced: hats simply didn't fit women properly. What started as a frustration turned into a mission-driven brand focused on better design, comfort, and helping women feel confident in what they wear. In this episode, Allyson shares what it's like to start over later in your career, how she validated a product idea with no prior experience in fashion or business, and the lessons she learned from expanding too quickly early on. We also talk about why “unisex” design often misses the mark, how to build a brand around a specific unmet need, and the importance of staying focused on your core product. Plus, Allyson opens up about balancing entrepreneurship with family life, trusting your instincts, and why it's never too late to build something meaningful. A must-listen for founders, career pivoters, and anyone looking to turn a simple idea into a powerful brand.   Are you interested in sponsoring and advertising on The Kara Goldin Show, which is now in the Top 1% of Entrepreneur podcasts in the world?

What if every dollar you're already spending in your business could turn into first class flights and bucket list family trips, without touching after-tax money? I sat down with Eli Facenda on The Happy Hustle Podcast, and this one hit different. Eli is the founder of Freedom Travel Systems, known online as "The Travel Guy." He's helped over 1,000 entrepreneurs turn everyday business expenses into 50K+ dream trips and first-class experiences, all through credit card points. The guy once booked a $6,000 business class flight for $6. That moment changed his life, and this episode might change how you think about yours. Eli breaks down the three buckets of the points game: earning the right type of points (flexible bank points from Amex, Chase, or Capital One beat airline cards almost every time), optimizing your travel perks, and actually redeeming points at full value instead of leaving 80% on the table. He also covers how to put payroll, rent, and supplier payments on a card using third-party tools, earning massive points on expenses you never thought could count. Then there's the Freedom Flywheel. Business grows, spending increases, points stack up, and you fund tax-free family vacations without pulling cash from your company. And yes, points from business cards are coded as a rebate, so they're completely tax free. Eli also shares his Five P's Framework for turning any trip into a real core memory: People, Place, Purpose, Possibility, and Presence. It's the difference between a nice vacation and one you'll talk about for the rest of your life. For practical folks, he covers what to avoid, including credit score myths, why you only need two to five cards (not thirty), and how being flexible by even two or three days can save you millions of points on a booking. He's offering two free playbooks for the Happy Hustle community: the CEO Points Playbook and the Payroll on a Credit Card Playbook. Grab both at https://freedomtravelsystems.com/. Listen to the full episode at https://caryjack.com/podcast. What does Happy Hustlin' mean to you? Happy Hustle to me means you're building a business that gives you energy instead of takes it. You're doing it with people you love. You believe in what you do and you're getting to live a great life while you do it.

Branding, Business, and Breaking Hearts: How One Creative Agency Is Ending Sex Trafficking Join host Justin Forman as he sits down with Brandon West, Chief Purpose Officer and founder of PHOS Creative, in an honest conversation about what it really means to build a faith-driven business from the inside out. Brandon shares how a 12-year journey from a home office — teaching Greek, Latin, and algebra on the side — became a 24-person creative agency on a mission to cultivate flourishing in people and organizations everywhere they touch. But this episode goes far beyond marketing strategy. Brandon opens up about the year his mom died, his team faltered, and his leadership was tested — and how that same season became the catalyst for a vision so big his leadership team laughed when he first said it out loud: launching North Central Florida's first-ever sex trafficking safe house. Today, PHOS has launched 37 care centers around the world — five years ahead of schedule. This is a conversation about awareness and trust, excellence and authenticity, uppercase Purpose and lowercase purpose — and what happens when an entrepreneur finally asks: what if God positioned this business for something greater? Key Topics: Why excellence alone isn't enough — the case for authentic, Christ-driven branding in the marketplace The "Flourishing Framework": PHOS Creative's six-dimensional model for caring for team, clients, and community From one Compassion International child to 37 care centers: the stewardship mindset that changes everything How a cleaning crew employee became the first sex trafficking survivor reached in Gainesville, Florida Why the problems of the world can't just be someone else's fight — and how to take your first step The difference between ‘uppercase P' Purpose and ‘lowercase p' purpose — and why it matters to your team "It is not your business to succeed": How C.S. Lewis's words reframed how Brandon measures everything Notable Quotes: "God has positioned this business for something greater. As we live that out and be that authentically to the world — authentically behind the scenes and then authentic in public — I do think that is where the sweet aroma of Christ begins to be so beautiful." — Brandon West "Do for the one what you wish you could do for the many." — Brandon West (quoting a mentor) "If you have something that's enough to chase, maybe you have enough to share." — Brandon West

Tyson sits down with Vaidas and Travis from RiseUp to unpack Google's latest updates, how AI content is being treated, and what actually moves the needle for firms that want cases instead of vanity rankings.You'll hear how Google is cracking down on scaled, low‑value AI content while rewarding original, human‑edited pages that deliver real information gain, and what that means for your current content library. The guys explain why “set it and forget it” SEO is dead, why they are going back to update a significant chunk of old content for long‑time clients, and how often you really need to revisit key pages. They also share a cautionary story about a firm that dumped 100 AI‑generated pages on their site and watched traffic drop by about 80% in two weeks, giving you a real‑world example of what not to do.Beyond Google's core update, you'll get a better understanding of where LLMs and search engines are actually looking: robust attorney bios, detailed case results, local signals, Yelp profiles, and consistent social content. That context helps you see SEO less as “just my website” and more as an ecosystem you can deliberately shape, instead of leaving it to chance.The episode also dives into PPC, showing how Google's own “smart” recommendations can tank your click‑through rate and why pay‑per‑click only works when you know your cost per click, conversion rate, and case value. By the end, you'll have a much clearer lens for deciding whether to put dollars into SEO, PPC, or cleaning up your broader online presence, and you'll know which questions to ask any marketing vendor before you sign the next contract.Episode Highlights00:00 – What's going on with the latest Google algorithm updates and how they impact law firm SEO.02:00 – Why “set it and forget it” content strategies are failing and how often you should update pages.04:00 – The firm that added 100 AI‑written pages and lost 80% of its traffic in two weeks.07:30 – How stats, FAQs, robust bios, case results, Yelp, and social posts feed Google and LLMs.10:00 – Tyson's CTR drop after following Google's “smart” ad recommendations and what to learn from it.15:45 – Travis's deck‑of‑cards analogy for PPC budgets and what “too little” spend really looks like.26:12 – Why most firms don't truly know their numbers and how that leads to bad SEO and ad investment decisionsConnect with RizeUp Media:Website Instagram Facebook Linkedin YoutubeResources:Join the Guild MembershipSubscribe to the Maximum Lawyer Youtube ChannelFollow us on InstagramJoin the Facebook GroupFollow the Facebook PageFollow us on LinkedIn

In this episode of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo reconnects with Dan Wentzel after a major life shift: the birth of his second child. With his available time cut down significantly, Dan finds himself navigating a new reality—less time, more responsibility, and growing pressure around his progress in self-storage.   But instead of treating this as a limitation, the conversation quickly reframes it as an opportunity. With only about ten hours a week to dedicate to the business, the focus becomes clear: how do you maximize that time in the most effective way possible?   Alex breaks down a powerful concept that challenges how most people think about productivity. It's not about how many hours you have—it's about what you do with them. Ten focused hours spent on revenue-generating activities like conversations, deal analysis, and making offers will always outperform thirty scattered hours spent in research and hesitation.   As the conversation unfolds, a key shift emerges. Dan begins to lean into collaboration—partnering with other members of the Storage Wins community to leverage time, skills, and opportunities. What initially felt like a constraint becomes a catalyst for growth, forcing him to think differently, act more intentionally, and tap into the power of working with others.   The episode also dives into the importance of mindset during difficult seasons. Feeling stuck, discouraged, or behind is part of the journey—but how you interpret that feeling determines what happens next. Through real, unfiltered conversation, Alex challenges Dan to reframe his situation, focus on progress over perfection, and commit to staying in the game.   This episode is a powerful reminder that progress doesn't require perfect conditions—just consistent, focused action and the willingness to adapt.   ⸻   You'll Learn How To:   Maximize limited time by focusing on high-impact activities Identify revenue-generating actions that actually move deals forward Leverage partnerships to multiply your effort and deal flow Reframe life changes as opportunities instead of setbacks Stay consistent even when your schedule and priorities shift Strengthen your mindset during seasons of doubt and uncertainty   What You'll Learn in This Episode:   [0:52] The reality of having less time after a major life change [2:17] Why reduced hours can actually create better focus [3:31] The shift from 30+ hours per week down to around 10 [5:39] Leveraging collaboration to maintain momentum [7:04] How partnerships helped uncover new deal opportunities [9:23] The power of working with others to multiply results [11:49] Why ten focused hours can outperform thirty scattered hours [13:21] The difference between busy work and revenue-generating activity [15:01] Key actions: conversations, underwriting, and making offers [17:44] The concept of leverage and multiplying your efforts [20:13] Scarcity vs abundance mindset when working with others [22:22] Why difficult conversations strengthen partnerships [24:06] "Date, don't marry" when it comes to partnerships [26:40] The importance of setting expectations upfront [28:52] Why most partnerships fail—and how to avoid it [30:14] Feeling stuck and discouraged during the journey [32:05] The role of mindset in pushing through difficult seasons [34:22] Why quitting might feel like an option—but isn't [36:08] Reframing your journey as training, not failure [38:20] The mindset of finishing the race no matter what   ⸻   Who This Episode Is For:   Investors balancing business with major life changes Listeners who feel like they don't have enough time Anyone struggling to stay consistent with limited availability Entrepreneurs navigating doubt, frustration, or slow progress People looking to leverage partnerships instead of doing everything alone   ⸻   Why You Should Listen:   Most people believe they need more time to succeed.   This episode proves the opposite.   By focusing on what actually matters and leveraging the right people, you can make meaningful progress even with limited time. More importantly, it shows how your mindset—not your schedule—is often the biggest factor in whether you move forward or stay stuck.   If you've ever felt like life is getting in the way of your goals, this conversation will help you reframe your situation and move forward with clarity and confidence.   ⸻   Follow Alex Pardo here: Alex Pardo Website: https://alexpardo.com/ Alex Pardo Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/alexpardo15 Alex Pardo Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alexpardo25 Alex Pardo YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@AlexPardo Storage Wins Website: https://storagewins.com/   ⸻   Have conversations with at least three storage owners, brokers, private lenders, or equity partners inside the Storage Wins Facebook Group.

With decades of experience building and scaling science-driven brands, Melisse is now leading Aramore at the intersection of biotech, skincare, and supplements, with a mission to move beyond surface-level beauty and address aging at its source. In this episode, Melisse breaks down the science behind NAD+ and why it's becoming such a powerful conversation in both wellness and skincare.

We also dive into what it takes to bring complex science to consumers in a clear and trustworthy way, how Aramore is approaching both topical and internal solutions, and what's next for the longevity category. A must-listen for founders, operators, and anyone curious about the future of beauty, wellness, and aging—and how science is reshaping all three.   Are you interested in sponsoring and advertising on The Kara Goldin Show, which is now in the Top 1% of Entrepreneur podcasts in the world?

How ANYONE Can Be Interesting and Stand Out

How To Be Totally Comfortable In ANY Situation

Watch the YouTube version of this episode HEREThis Morning Meeting episode uses Tyson's fitness journey and a “slightly high” BMI score as a metaphor for how easily law firm owners can obsess over the wrong numbers and miss the ones that actually drive freedom and profitability. Tyson walks through the gap between vanity metrics and meaningful metrics, from BMI vs body fat to revenue vs profit, and shows why some of the most celebrated law firm numbers actually tell you almost nothing about the health of your practice.You'll hear how his firm used one primary metric, average fee, to dramatically increase case value over 15 years, and why lead volume, signed cases, and employee headcount often create the illusion of progress while hiding serious problems underneath. Tyson then reframes success around better questions: What if “growth” meant less chaos, fewer fires, and fewer hours at the office, while the right numbers still go up? He shares practical metrics to consider, like profit per case or team, qualified leads, and owner work hours per week, and challenges you to build a simple scoreboard that fits your firm instead of copying someone else's dashboard.If you've ever felt proud of your top-line revenue but unsure whether your firm is actually working for your life, this episode will help you sort the numbers that really matter from the ones that just look good on paper.Highlights00:00 – Tyson shares his “cutting phase” story and how a “slightly high” BMI score sparked this conversation about tracking the right numbers in your firm.01:45 – BMI vs body fat: why one metric labels him “overweight” while another shows he's in great shape, and how that mirrors misleading metrics in law firms.02:20 – Revenue vs profit: why a firm making one million in revenue might still be in trouble, and why profit tells a much clearer story03:30 – “Not everything that is measured matters…” Tyson unpacks the famous quote and applies it to the mountains of data most firms track but never use.04:10 – Average fee as the “main number”: how tracking this one metric took his firm from $7,400 to about $25,000 per case over 15 years.07:10 – The illusion of progress: Tyson explains how revenue, lead volume, signed cases, and employee headcount can become pure vanity metrics.08:55 – Redefining growth as less chaos: exploring hours worked per week as a more honest signal of whether your firm is truly serving your life.09:35 – The MaxLawCon Jason Selk challenge: rethinking success as leaving later, arriving earlier, and rejecting “first in, last out” as your main value metric.11:15 – Metrics that actually matter: profit per case, profit per team, qualified leads, and ideal-client cases as better levers for high-performing firms.12:25 – Keeping the main thing the main thing: why every firm needs one core number to focus the team and filter out the noise of vanity metrics.Resources:Join the Guild MembershipSubscribe to the Maximum Lawyer Youtube ChannelFollow us on InstagramJoin the Facebook GroupFollow the Facebook PageFollow us on LinkedIn

Favour Obasi-ike, MBA, MS leads a deep dive into why website organic traffic drops and how to fix it. Joined by experts like Brandon, RockI, and Celese, the discussion highlights the ~24-month lifecycle of SEO content and the dangers of "content decay". The panel explores the value of building trust via high-quality backlinks, local SEO for businesses, and whether paid Meta/Google ads ultimately help or hurt organic reach. Favour emphasizes that organic traffic is a long-term investment, comparing un-updated web pages to un-renovated houses losing their value.Who is this for?This content is ideal for digital marketers, SEO specialists, small business owners, real estate investors, and tech founders looking to build sustainable organic growth, diagnose web traffic drops, and navigate the relationship between paid advertising and organic reach.Key MomentsThe 24-Month Cycle: Favour explains that traffic drops often stem from "content decay," where posts lose freshness after 24 months without updates.Backlinks as a "Backbone": Brandon and Favour discuss how domain authority relies on high-quality backlinks from news outlets, directories, and niche communities.The Ad Rebound Effect: Rocky and Celese debate whether running Meta ads subsequently throttles organic reach due to algorithmic capitalism.Live SEO Audit: Favour does a live teardown of Cindy's real estate sites, highlighting the technical differences between WordPress and Squarespace and the importance of Google's local search updates.Sequential Timestamps[Part 1] - Introduction: Favour introduces the organic traffic cycle and the "seed planting" analogy for long-term SEO.[Part 2] - The Changing SEO Landscape: Brandon discusses how YouTube is rivaling Google and why backlinks remain the ultimate ranking factor.[Part 3] - Ads vs. Organic Debate: Rocky asks if paid ads hurt organic traction; Celeste shares a story about corporate retargeting and internet privacy.[Part 4] - Technical Foundations: Favour audits a guest's website, explaining the importance of proper CMS setups, Bing Places, and local SEO.[Part 5] - Fixing Content Decay: Favour defines content decay and provides actionable competitor research strategies before closing the room.FAQsWhy did my organic traffic suddenly drop? It is likely due to "content decay." If a post hasn't been updated in 24+ months, search engines view it as outdated. You must refresh and modify your content to maintain a positive traffic trajectory.Do paid ads improve organic traffic? Indirectly, yes. While you shouldn't rely solely on ads, paid campaigns generate traffic that signals relevance and trust to Google, which can bolster your organic presence later.What is the best way to start building backlinks? Begin by adding your business to local and niche directories (like Bright Local or Yelp). Also, engage organically in relevant communities (like Reddit or LinkedIn) to naturally generate citations.Action Steps from Favour Obasi-ikeRenovate Your Decaying Content: Look at your oldest high-performing pages. Update them to ensure the "last modified" date stays fresh, steering your website forward like the front wheels of a car.Use Google Search Console: Monitor your pages to ensure you have a diagonal upward trajectory of impressions month over month.Perform a 5-Minute Competitor Audit: Go to Google and type site:competitordomain.com. Review their top three ranking pages to see if they are utilizing FAQs, videos, or glossaries that your site is missing, then implement those features.Diversify Your Ecosystem: Don't just rely on Google. Build organic citations on Reddit, LinkedIn Newsletters, Bing Places, and Threads.Ready to Rank? Book Your SEO & Web Dev Services Today

Connecting With People Is A Simple Art Form

Your family needs your phone when you're gone — most of them can't get in. Here's the fix.

Can one personal frustration — and a simple question — actually lead to changing an entire industry standard? On today's episode, we welcome Bryan Boches, CEO and Co-Founder of Safe Catch — the only seafood company in the world that tests every single fish for mercury. What started as a deeply personal moment — when Bryan's pregnant wife was told to eliminate tuna from her diet due to mercury concerns — quickly turned into a much bigger realization: why wasn't anyone solving this problem at scale? Instead of accepting the status quo, Bryan set out to fix it. After developing breakthrough proprietary technology capable of screening every fish for mercury, he approached major seafood companies — and was met with resistance. So he did what great founders do: he built his own brand. Today, Safe Catch is in over 19,000 retail locations, setting a new benchmark for transparency, safety, and accountability in seafood. In this episode, Bryan shares what it really takes to challenge a legacy industry, the uphill battle of introducing higher standards into an established supply chain, and why incumbents often resist meaningful change. We discuss the science behind mercury testing, how to educate consumers without creating fear, and what it means to build trust in a category where transparency hasn't always been the norm. Bryan also opens up about the realities of scaling a mission-driven business, navigating retailer relationships, and staying committed when others won't follow. If you're interested in building with purpose, disrupting entrenched industries, or turning a personal problem into a scalable solution — this episode is for you. Tune in now on The Kara Goldin Show.

In this episode of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo works with Dan Wentzel on a unique self-storage opportunity that doesn't fit Dan's buy box—but still presents real value. Instead of forcing the deal to work, the conversation shifts toward a smarter strategy: wholesaling it to someone whose buy box it does fit.   What makes this episode powerful is the shift in perspective. Dan initially begins to position the deal based on why it doesn't work for him—pointing out the operational complexity of having two homes and a warehouse on site. But Alex quickly reframes that thinking: just because something is a negative to you doesn't mean it's a negative to someone else.   They unpack one of the most important lessons for any investor—especially those wholesaling deals—how you communicate value matters. Being transparent about the "warts" of a deal is important, but overemphasizing them or unintentionally downplaying the upside can kill momentum and interest.   The conversation also dives into evaluating deals based on current income vs potential income, how to think about pro forma without overpaying for it, and why your offer should always be grounded in what the asset produces today—not what it might produce in the future.   This episode is a masterclass in perspective, positioning, and understanding that your job isn't just to find deals—it's to see who they're actually for.   You'll Learn How To: Identify when a deal doesn't fit your buy box—and what to do instead Position a deal effectively when wholesaling to other investors Highlight upside without overselling or misleading Avoid "selling against yourself" when presenting opportunities Evaluate deals based on current income vs potential future income Use perspective to match deals with the right buyers   ⸻   What You'll Learn in This Episode:   [1:25] Dan's update: momentum, partnerships, and deals in progress [3:15] How joint venturing with other investors expands opportunity [6:00] Why partnerships should be structured deal-by-deal—not long-term commitments [9:19] The importance of having difficult conversations upfront in partnerships [12:05] Building relationships with brokers and why it takes time [14:22] Why relationship capital is more valuable than financial capital [18:32] Overview of the Arkansas deal and seller motivation [20:15] Why crafting an offer should be based on current income—not potential [22:31] Why this deal doesn't fit Dan's buy box [23:10] The shift to wholesaling the opportunity instead [23:45] The mistake: unintentionally "selling against" the deal [24:58] Why negatives for you can be positives for someone else [26:10] Additional income potential from homes and warehouse [28:05] Why you shouldn't pay for pro forma income [30:20] Using simple deal filters to evaluate opportunities quickly [33:40] Why seller expectations don't determine deal value [36:15] The power of creative financing and structuring offers [38:10] Adjusting your offer based on real numbers—not assumptions [40:45] Setting up the next step: refining the offer and negotiation strategy   Who This Episode Is For: Investors trying to define or refine their buy box Wholesalers looking to position deals more effectively Listeners who struggle with evaluating deals outside their ideal criteria Anyone learning how to communicate deal value to other investors Entrepreneurs who need to think more strategically about opportunity   Why You Should Listen:   Not every deal is for you—but every deal is for someone.   This episode shows how one shift in perspective can turn a "no" into an opportunity. By understanding your buy box, communicating value correctly, and focusing on who the deal is actually for, you can unlock more opportunities without forcing bad deals to work.   If you've ever passed on a deal or struggled to position one to others, this conversation will help you see opportunities differently—and act on them more effectively.   Follow Alex Pardo here: Alex Pardo Website: https://alexpardo.com/ Alex Pardo Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/alexpardo15 Alex Pardo Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alexpardo25 Alex Pardo YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@AlexPardo Storage Wins Website: https://storagewins.com/   ⸻   Have conversations with at least three storage owners, brokers, private lenders, or equity partners inside the Storage Wins Facebook Group.

So many entrepreneurs think they need a new strategy, a better funnel, or the latest marketing trend to finally grow—but most of the time, the real issue is much simpler: they don't understand the basic ways a business actually makes money. In today's episode of The Rachel Hollis Podcast, I'm breaking down the four core levers that drive revenue in any business—regardless of your industry, audience size, or experience level. We're talking about how to increase the value of each transaction, how to create more transactions, how to bring customers back more often, and how to stop chasing tactics before you've mastered the fundamentals. Because TikTok Shop, AI tools, and social media trends are just vehicles—the real growth happens when you know which lever to pull and why. If you've been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or frustrated by inconsistent revenue, this episode will help you stop guessing and start growing with intention. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
