In this Fireside Chat, Ben Jackson from Exceed PT Coaching, and I got into a conversation many business owners need to have more often: Relying on one stream of income is risky. Whether you're a PT, therapist, coach, or health professional, there are smart ways to add aligned income streams without starting from scratch. We spoke about how ready-built business models and affiliate-style opportunities can help you:   Build income on the side Expand your network Add more value to your existing clients Create opportunities beyond one-to-one work   MLM and affiliate marketing often get a bad reputation, and sometimes fairly, but the bigger issue is that many people don't know how to integrate these models properly into an existing business. When done with integrity, alignment, and a clear client-first approach, they can become another route to growth rather than a distraction. If you're a health professional, PT, therapist, or coach wondering how to diversify your income without losing focus, this conversation is for you.

Friday Feedback today, and for some reason they always seem a touch looser than the usual pods, tis the nature of a friday....We start with a message from Teddy in Thailand, we did a mini last week on Teddy's grip issues, and he writes in with some more info, and Mark received an email from Ben Jackson the honcho of a grip company with some info on their Thai distributor - who happens to be based where Teddy lives! What are the odds!We start with some feedback on Marks outrageous behaviour of watching lawn mowing videos last week when we were trying to record the pod. Strangely, most wolfpackers seemed to not have an issue with it....we may have misjudged the room on this one (to Marks happiness). For some reason we then merge into more snooker chat....seriously Talk Birdie is on the verge of jumping the shark Fonzie style.But then onto the real stuff. Couple of comments on the discussion last week about whether all handicaps are created equal, one of which is a sort of compliment from Dean who agrees with Nick and Marks views, but then goes on to whack the boys over the recent Talk Birdie Top 20 Golf Course list. Leads to a chat about Queensland courses, and Nick and Mark list their fave Queensland courses and why. No surprises as to Nicks.Steven from Western Australia has a story on Monty which brings much joy to Mark, and then a couple of comments on the ball striking of Ángel Cabrera, Nick and Mark discuss what it was like to watch him hit the ball, and to play golf more broadly.Al is a lefty, and is after some advice from Nick about how to maximise the influence of his dominant hand, he's a former cricketer who came to golf late, and is struggling a little with the right hand placement.Bruce has noticed something Tour Pros do that he finds frustrating, and is keen for Nick and Marks thoughts. Greg agrees with the boys Rory McIlroy comments following what he said about Royal Melbourne not being 'fit for purpose'. Athol has heard our chats of recent pods on the Ryan Ang situation and has a whack for Nick and Mark over it.Aaron heard us wondering about Links Kennedy Bay last week, and wrote in to clarify where the course is at, which leads to us discovering that Nick is planning a trip to WA next year and not only has he failed to secure Mark and invite to Long Island, but he's not bothering to see if Mark and Dan want to come along! Sure it's a family wedding, but let's not let that get in the way of a golf trip!!!!By the way, speaking of golf trips.....don't forget to suss what our mates at GolfLoot have for you to win....see it here. Well worth the membership.And we wrap with some comments from Alan on the number of clubs in the bag.A fun Friday Feedback pod, hopefully we can get through the shows next week with zero lawnmowing and snooker chat....We're live from Titleist and FootJoy HQ thanks to our great partners:Hostplus, Talk Birdie To Me's official retirement partnerBMW, luxury and comfort for the 19th hole;Titleist, the #1 ball in golf;FootJoy, the #1 shoe and glove in golf;PING will help you play your best;Golf Clearance Outlet, they beat everyone's prices;Betr, the fastest and easiest betting app in Australia;The Find My Player app - follow every player on every tour;And Southern Golf Club.

  In this episode, Rory Wilson, a consultant with Rebel, and Annalise Czerny, a payments lead for Rebel, talk about how their company works at the intersection of payments and mobility.  They discuss how helping customers pay for getting around, whether by bus, train, or even rental scooters can help issuers build their payments program. They also cover why open-loop payments are an increasing part of fare payments in transit, and how these payments can help with financial inclusion.    This podcast was recorded on May 12, 2026. Things may have changed by the time you hear it.   The IPA plans to have Rebel back as part of our summer of learning webinar series, so be on the look out for future announcements.  In the meantime, if you want to learn more about the world of payments by attending one of our upcoming events, including our IPA Payments Policy Briefing being held at the Bancorp's Offices in Sioux Falls, South Dakota on July 9 and our upcoming Compliance Boot Camp being held at Discover's Headquarters outside of Chicago on September 10th.   If you are interested in closed-loop cards, then join Ben Jackson at the 2026 Education Forum Hosted by the Retail Gift Card Association and Best Buy on June 10th at Best Buy Headquarters in Richfield, Minnesota.  He will be speaking about the role of gift cards in the world of Shopping 3.0 and there will be sessions on the future of the gift card industry with speakers addressing how artificial intelligence will affect the future of shopping, fraud prevention, and the world as a whole.   

On this bonus Talk Birdie Mini, we received a voicemail from Teddy in Thailand, and he has arthritis in his index finger - never ideal for a golf grip. Teddy is after some thoughts from Nick and Mark on options that may help - and whether you're in Teddy's position or not, the grip conversation and advice is a fascinating listen.We discuss the various grip options, the Greg Norman grip, the 10-finger grip, the interlock, and chat about the best kind of gloves that may help Teddy.Some time ago Mark watched a video which outlined the significant difference fresh grips can have, even on quite old clubs, so he is a proponent of that. In this mini Mark mentions Ben Jackson's Gripmaster, the link is here: https://thegripmaster.com/Thanks for the voicemail Teddy, good luck with your golf, and with the arthritis work arounds!We're live from Titleist and FootJoy HQ thanks to our great partners:Hostplus, Talk Birdie To Me's official retirement partnerBMW, luxury and comfort for the 19th hole;Titleist, the #1 ball in golf;FootJoy, the #1 shoe and glove in golf;PING will help you play your best;Golf Clearance Outlet, they beat everyone's prices;Betr, the fastest and easiest betting app in Australia;The Find My Player app - follow every player on every tour;And Southern Golf Club.

The IPA recently wrapped up its annual conference last week. While payments has a bright future, industry players will need to navigate a complex landscape.   In this episode, Brian Tate, the IPA's CEO, talks about the conference and the lessons learned there.   He discusses what the audience heard from the regulators who spoke, the trends that emerged during the sessions, and what was on attendees' minds as they networked during informal gatherings at the conference.   As Brian mentioned, listeners can learn more about the world of payments by attending one of our upcoming events, including our IPA Payments Policy Briefing being held at the Bancorp's Offices in Sioux Falls, South Dakota on July 9 and our upcoming Compliance Boot Camp being held at Discover's Headquarters outside of Chicago on September 10th.   If you are interested in closed-loop cards, then join Ben Jackson at the 2026 Education Forum Hosted by the Retail Gift Card Association and Best Buy on June 10th at Best Buy Headquarters in Richfield, Minnesota.  He will be speaking about the role of gift cards in the world of Shopping 3.0 and there will be sessions on the future of the gift card industry with speakers addressing how artificial intelligence will affect the future of shopping, fraud prevention, and the world as a whole.  This podcast was recorded on May 7, 2026.

Ben moved from New York to France a year ago with his French wife, settling in Paris after six months in Normandy. The two smoke cigars by the Seine and compare notes on Paris, pushing back hard against the social media narrative that the city has gone downhill — both find it cleaner, friendlier, and more affordable than expected, with Nick estimating that $5,000/month in Paris buys a comparable or better lifestyle to what that same budget gets you in Latin America's major cities. The conversation drifts into European lifestyle, travel, and geopolitics — covering train systems (Italy wins), the high-trust Nordic social model, gun ownership myths in Europe, and whether Europe's comfortable lifestyle is sustainable without American military protection footing the bill. They also riff on history, tracing Napoleon's obsession with Rome, Caesar's breakdown at the statue of Alexander the Great, and how the entire Western tradition — from Washington D.C. to Haussmann's Paris — is essentially a Roman copy chain ending in plastic. The back half centers on men's style and Ben's Substack publication Jackson & Co., which he launched as a response to GQ and Esquire becoming unrecognizable. Ben argues that a generational rebellion is underway — Gen Z rejecting their athleisure dads and swinging back toward timeless, classic menswear — pointing to Ralph Lauren's 25-30% sales surge and suit retailers like Suitsupply unable to build stores fast enough. Nick ties this into broader cultural swings: young men going back to church, the "old money" aesthetic as a synonym for intentional living, and the Italian concept of sprezzatura — looking effortlessly put-together — as the gold standard. -

We help B2B brands launch shows that turn their point of view into pipeline. If you're launching a podcast (or have one already) and are not sure how it can hit your bottom line, book a meeting with Jason: https://meetings-eu1.hubspot.com/jason-bradwell/youtube-meeting-link Most B2B companies already have a brand. They just have not invested in it. And every day they delay, they are handing their competitors a head start in the sales conversation. In this episode, Jason sits down with Ben Jackson, Founder and CEO of Momentum Studio, for an unplanned but unmissable conversation recorded straight after a peer agency cohort session on the South Coast of England. Ben is one of the sharpest minds in B2B branding, and this episode is packed with clarity on a topic that most marketing and revenue teams struggle to connect to real commercial outcomes. Ben breaks down why brand is not a logo, not a one-off capital expense, and certainly not a vanity exercise. It is your reputation, and it is either accelerating or actively braking your sales process. He explains how the best B2B brands reduce sales friction, establish credibility before the first call, and make conversion feel inevitable rather than effortful. If your sales team is still having to explain what you do, why you are different, and why you are worth the price, your brand has not done its job yet. This episode gives you the framework to change that. Key Takeaways ◼️ Why brand is reputation, not design. How to shift from thinking about logos to thinking about every touchpoint a customer has with your business. ◼️ How to stop competing on price. Why companies that neglect brand end up in a race to the bottom and how a strong brand breaks that cycle. ◼️ Why brand is an accelerator for your sales team. How investing in brand means sales conversations shift from "what do you do?" to "which package is right for you?" ◼️ How to avoid the vanity mindset. Why building a brand around what looks good to you, rather than what matters to your customer, is one of the most common and costly mistakes in B2B. ◼️ Why brand is never done. How to treat brand as a living, iterating asset rather than a one-off capital expense. ◼️ How to take the first practical step today. Why the best starting point is customer research, not a new logo, and how to find the highest-impact move for your current stage. Chapter Markers 00:00 Intro 01:45 What B2B brand actually means (and why it is not your logo) 03:30 How to build a brand centred on your customer, not your ego 05:00 Brand vs. demand: why the best companies invest in both 07:00 The vanity mindset trap and the race to the bottom 11:00 How brand lubricates the sales process and shortens cycles 15:00 Where to start if you have never invested in brand before Relevant Links and Resources Ben Jackson Website: https://www.momentumstudio.co.ukLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/benjaminjackson/ Resources Mentioned HockeyStack: https://www.hockeystack.comGrowth Leaders (peer agency cohort, South Coast of England): (add link if available) What's Next If this episode got you thinking about your own B2B brand, do not wait for a better moment.

Friends, we took a little break, as you may have noticed.We used the downtime to put together something special: we asked writers to submit their very best writing on the theme "finding meaning in a time of strife." The submissions were overwhelming, and for the next twelve weeks or so, you'll get to hear some of the best of them.To introduce the series, Alyssa and Ben share one of Ben's own essays: "My Soul Doth Magnify The Lord." This essay won the Emerson College Graduate Writing Award in Nonfiction with High Distinction. It grapples with faith, history, evil, and, of course, music.

Klaviyo has become the de facto personal CRM for eCommerce. Ben Jackson, Managing Director for EMEA, joins us to unpack how brands move beyond campaign calendars into relationship-building at scale. We get into rocketship growth, why attribution is still broken, and how Castore's multi-instance CRM model points to a future where both/and thinking beats false trade-offs.If You're Just Following the Data, You're Following the PastKey takeaways:The marketer's identity crisis: Evolving from channel specialists to customer relationship managers orchestrating holistic experiences.Scale meets personalization: Castore manages 32 Klaviyo instances while maintaining intimate relationships through strategic automation.Attribution's cultural revolution: How brands are moving beyond "either/or" to "both/and" so they can measure immediate performance while building long-term value.Channel affinity intelligence: AI identifies not just preferred channels, but optimal timing to eliminate fatigue."There's not many brands that you would get tattooed on yourself. But if you're a sports fan, if you're a supporter of a national team or a football club... that means you really care about the experience you have with that brand." - Ben Jackson on Castore's passionate customer base"Rather than our reliance being quite heavy on sending out a load of email blasts to try and tick revenue targets... Let's tell those stories. Let's give the customer who we know is already incredibly passionate a reason to be loyal." - Max Holland (Castore) on content-driven relationship building"If you're just following the data, you're following the past. If you're following the competition, you're following what everybody else has done, and it's really difficult to differentiate if you're gonna do that." - Ben Jackson on creative marketing philosophy"Some of the impact you have as a marketer today, typically you take credit for the success in that moment. But some of it is about building that brand, building that customer experience... that doesn't just last for that point of one transaction. It kind of lasts over years." - Ben Jackson on long-term value thinkingIn-Show Mentions:Castore - Athletic wear brand managing 32 Klaviyo instances for partner teams and clubsRory Sutherland - Behavioral economist discussing explore/exploit marketing philosophyK London - Klaviyo's European conference with 1,500 attendees and waiting listAssociated Links:Check out Future Commerce on YouTubeCheck out Future Commerce+ for exclusive content and save on merch and printSubscribe to Insiders and The Senses to read more about what we are witnessing in the commerce worldListen to our other episodes of Future CommerceHave any questions or comments about the show?

Today's bad idea is one that started out as satire and ended as a political slogan. David talks to historian of ideas Ben Jackson about meritocracy and its origins in Michael Young's book The Rise of the Meritocracy published in 1958. Young foresaw a populist revolt against the meritocratic elite in the year 2034. Was his vision prophetic? Why did politicians like Tony Blair embrace a concept that Young thought was antithetical to a fair and just society? And who are the winners and losers from meritocracy today?

Material Masculinities: Men and Goods in Eighteenth-Century England (Manchester University Press, 2025) by Dr. Ben Jackson examines the material and consumer practices of over 1000 men from the middling and upper ranks of eighteenth-century society, c.1650-1850. It draws upon evidence from over 35 archives and museum collections to detail how material objects were integral for men in forming identities and shaping experiences. For men of all social ranks, ages, and geographic locations, material knowledge was imperative for masculine social identities to operate in a commercial society. Before the centralised factory and widespread mass-produced goods, men personalised and repaired their goods; products were shaped by men's attitudes and concerns. Objects were tools in men's identity formation and the exercise of social and gendered power. There was a reciprocal relationship between men and goods in this period; men were active agents of material and commercial change driving product and aesthetic innovation. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the Austrian-British economist Friedrich Hayek's The Road to Serfdom (1944) in which Hayek (1899-1992) warned that the way Britain was running its wartime economy would not work in peacetime and could lead to tyranny. His target was centralised planning, arguing this disempowered individuals and wasted their knowledge, while empowering those ill-suited to run an economy. He was concerned about the support for the perceived success of Soviet centralisation, when he saw this and Fascist systems as two sides of the same coin. When Reader's Digest selectively condensed Hayek's book in 1945, and presented it not so much as a warning against tyranny as a proof against socialism, it became phenomenally influential around the world.
