In this Labor Day episode, Shahin dives into the financial implications of the holiday and shares ten crucial financial habits people can adopt before the end of the year.Labor Day is identified as the second-biggest retail spending weekend (following Black Friday), significantly influencing markets as banks close and September trading commences [i]. During this period, travel demand spikes, leading to increased costs for airlines, hotels, and gas [i]. Additionally, 40% of states adjust their minimum wages, and the rise of gig work reflects underlying financial insecurity [i]. Union workers, despite shrinking membership, continue to earn 10–20% more [i]. Retirees, in particular, are advised to steer clear of traveling during this surge [i].The episode also highlights how Labor Day serves as a critical moment for planning and year-end preparation [i]. Many companies initiate sales as their fiscal years conclude in September, and individuals are encouraged to review their retirement savings, noting that the average 401k for ages 45–54 is approximately $150,000 [i]. It's an opportune time to review tax deductions, tackle credit card debt, and strategize for Q4 and holiday spending [i]. The discussion further touches upon the reality that some workers lack paid time off, underscoring the importance of reassessing financial resilience [i].To help listeners build wealth and financial stability, Shaheen shares 10 essential financial habits:• Track spending to identify savings opportunities [i].• Automate savings into high-yield accounts [i].• Monitor net worth regularly [i].• Increase retirement contributions, even by a small percentage (e.g., 1%) [i].• Pay off high-interest or small debts [i].• Avoid maxing out 401k too early to optimize company match benefits [i].• Rebalance and diversify investments [i].• Start a side hustle for additional income [i].• Maximize tax deductions with the help of a professional [i].• Set clear, personal financial goals [i].

The holiday season keeps starting earlier and stretching longer. That means brands can't just focus on Black Friday and Cyber Monday anymore — they need a strategy that carries through continuous deal weeks.

This segment discusses a recent brawl on a Carnival cruise ship that reportedly broke out over chicken tenders. The hosts express fascination with what they see as a psychological phenomenon: people's willingness to engage in violence over "free" or heavily discounted items, citing similar behavior during Black Friday sales. The hosts suggest the incident was fueled by a last-minute rush to get as much "free" food as possible before the cruise ended. They also use this as a cautionary tale for listeners, advising them to research cruise ship quality before booking to avoid what they call a "seedy underside" of crime and violence. The conversation also takes a comedic turn as the hosts share viewer texts on related topics, including their addiction to "police patrol" TV shows and the importance of good beard hygiene.

Here's a sobering statistic that'll make you rethink everything about your Black Friday strategy: 80% of Black Friday customers never purchase from the same brand again.    Let that sink in for a moment. Four out of five people who bought from you during your biggest sales event of the year will never come back.   But here's the thing – it doesn't have to be this way. How do you ensure those new customers don't just disappear into the ether, never to be seen again?   In this episode, I'm going to share a framework with you that transforms Black Friday bargain hunters into your most valuable long-term customers.    Because here's what most brands get completely wrong – they think Black Friday is about sales volume. But for premium brands, Black Friday should be about customer acquisition. The real money isn't made during the sale; it's made in the months that follow.   I'm going to walk you through what I call an "Advocate Activation Framework" – a systematic approach to turning one-time Black Friday buyers into passionate brand advocates who not only buy repeatedly but become your most powerful marketing asset.   Links mentioned in this episode: If you'd like help to achieve your goals, I invite you to have a chat to find out how we can make that happen together HERE By booking a Free Growth Strategy   Other Ways To Enjoy This Episode: Listen on Apple Podcasts Listen on Spotify Youtube  

What would life look like without small businesses? Today, we're diving into why they're the heartbeat of our local economies—and why their role matters more than ever during the holiday rush. I'm joined by Sara Burks, who reveals how small businesses do far more than ring up sales: they create jobs, fund community events, pay taxes, and more. Listen in as we explore how to shift attention from big-box retailers to small businesses through Pink Friday, a bold, colorful event held the Friday before Black Friday.  Resources:  Sara Burks:  LinkedIn Pink Friday 2025 Join The Boutique Hub     Ashley Alderson: Instagram     The Boutique Hub: Website | Facebook | Instagram | Pinterest | TikTok | YouTube

Victoria Jackson, the original creator and pioneer of the term No Makeup Makeup—and owner of the trademark—has spent decades shaping the way women think about beauty. Starting as a makeup artist in the 1980s, she sparked a movement that celebrated natural beauty and empowered women to feel confident in their own skin. She went on to found Victoria Jackson Cosmetics, the first cosmetics brand sold on television, achieving an unprecedented $1 million in sales in its first week and ultimately driving over $1 billion in revenue through 13 groundbreaking infomercials and a decade on QVC. After stepping away from the industry to focus on her family, Victoria made a triumphant return in 2024 with the launch of No Makeup Makeup—the brand—bringing a new era of clean, effortless beauty. Anchored by 13 inclusive shades of a 7-in-1 Foundation with proprietary FlexShade Technology™ and a precision-matched brush, the line is designed to enhance rather than mask. When it debuted on QVC in January 2025, it generated $1 million in just 24 hours, proving the enduring power of Victoria's vision. Today, No Makeup Makeup continues to redefine beauty standards, showing that true radiance comes from confidence, not heavy layers of product.In this episode, Victoria also discusses:Pioneering the “no makeup makeup” movement during the 80sHer famous “half-face” demonstrative marketing When you look better, you feel betterThe importance of shade selectionWhy wearing more makeup ages youTurning challenges into opportunitiesExpanding the line into blushes and lipsticksWe hope you enjoy this episode and gain valuable insights into Victoria's journey and the growth of www.nomakeupmakeup.com.

Here's the thing about Black Friday that nobody wants to admit: most people are doing it completely wrong.They're slashing prices and praying. They're throwing up a quick "50% off everything!" post on Instagram and wondering why their sales are flat. They're convinced their audience is "too sophisticated" for Black Friday, or their business is "too small" to make it worth it.Meanwhile, there are course creators and coaches quietly crushing six-figure weeks using strategies that have nothing to do with desperate discounts.I'm sitting down with Mara and Becca, two-thirds of the powerhouse trio behind the upcoming Black Friday Summit (along with their co-host Dolly). Mara has run over 100 Black Friday campaigns since 2018—yes, you read that right.We're spilling ALL the tea today. From the JCPenney catalog strategy that generated massive buzz to why trying to beat the crowd by running your sale early might actually backfire, this conversation is packed with the kind of behind-the-scenes insights that separate the pros from the amateurs.If you've been sitting on the fence about Black Friday because you think your business is "too small" or your audience "won't go for it," we're about to bust those myths wide open. Spoiler alert: There's no business too small for Black Friday, and yes, even if you only have 15 people on your email list, it can still be worth your time.What You'll Learn:Why novelty is the secret sauce that makes Black Friday campaigns absolutely crush itThe "January implementation" strategy that's changing the game for course creators in 2025How to prep for Black Friday without becoming a stressed-out mess by ThanksgivingWhy shorter sales pages are the move right now (and when a Google Doc might actually be genius)The biggest myths about Black Friday that are keeping you from cashing inReal numbers and results from campaigns that generated six figuresHow service providers can absolutely nail Black Friday sales (yes, even photographers and designers!)The exact timeline you need to prep without losing your mindResources Mentioned:Mara, Bekah, and Dolly's Black Friday Summit (August 26-28): http://gemmabonhamcarter.com/blackfridaysummit Gemma's Black Friday in a Box program: https://gemmabonhamcarter.com/blackfridayMara: marakucirek.com Bekah: rebekahreadcreative.com   Dolly: dollydelongphotography.com/ Your Next Steps:Work with Me: https://www.gemmabonhamcarter.com/programsWhat I Use to Run My 7-Figure Business: https://gemmabonhamcarter.com/toolsConnect on Social: https://www.instagram.com/gemma.bonhamcarter Support the show

Allison Luvera and Lauren De Niro Pipher are the Co-Founders of Juliet Wine, where they're redefining boxed wine with award-winning California varietals and eco-conscious cylindrical packaging that challenges the category's decades-old perception. Allison is an award-winning brand builder with a dual BS in Finance and Marketing from Boston College, an MBA from The Wharton School, and WSET Level 2 Certification in Wine. She's also a founding member of the Alternative Packaging Alliance, a coalition of high-end boxed wine brands dedicated to advancing sustainable packaging in the wine industry. Lauren brings nearly two decades of sales, business development, investor relations, and design expertise from leading roles at Virgin Galactic, Uber, and Douglas Elliman, along with a BS in Culture & Communications from NYU and a Sustainability Certification from Cambridge University's Judge School of Business.Before launching Juliet, Allison built a career leading brand strategy, design, and storytelling for premium products, earning a reputation for transforming overlooked categories into high-value lifestyle experiences.

Together, they've created a brand that blends “affordable luxury” with modern consumer expectations and a design-first approach that stands apart from traditional boxed wine.In this episode, Allison and Lauren share how they spotted an opportunity to reimagine boxed wine, why they launched DTC first to prove product-market fit, and how they tested seven price points to find the sweet spot before expanding to retail. They also reveal how early customer data shaped their go-to-market strategy and helped secure high-quality retail partners who understood Juliet's unique value.In This Conversation We Discuss:[00:40] Intro[01:07] Highlighting sustainability as a core advantage[01:58] Reimagining a category for modern consumers[03:46] Meeting evolving consumer demands head-on[05:21] Sourcing partners to match product vision[06:55] Reframing consumer perceptions of boxed wine[09:03] Prototyping early to speed market entry[09:20] Testing multiple price points before scaling[11:47] Episode Sponsors: Electric Eye, Heatmap, Zamp[15:44] Adjusting pricing after early market feedback[17:33] Making decisions to drive progress forward[19:21] Proving product-market fit to win distributors[20:48] Proving demand before pitching big retailers[21:10] Meeting online customers where they are [22:38] Boosting AOV with strategic bundlesResources:Subscribe to Honest Ecommerce on YoutubeEco-friendly and delicious luxury boxed wine drinkjuliet.com/Follow Allison Luvera linkedin.com/in/allisonluveraFollow Lauren De Niro Pipher linkedin.com/in/iamldpSchedule an intro call with one of our experts electriceye.io/connectClear, real-time data built for ecommerce optimization heatmap.com/honestFully managed sales tax solution for Ecommerce brands zamp.com/honestIf you're enjoying the show, we'd love it if you left Honest Ecommerce a review on Apple Podcasts.

In Episode 196 of the Systems & Workflow Magic Podcast, I chat with Rebekah Read (Bekah) about how to optimize your Black Friday sales page using SEO and AI so your offers are searchable, compelling, and ready to convert in 2025. To read the ENTIRE blog post that corresponds with this podcast, just click HERE

What if I told you that the most successful Black Friday campaigns aren't about slashing prices by 80% or screaming 'EVERYTHING MUST GO!' in bright red text? What if the real winners are the brands that actually increase their perceived value during Black Friday whilst everyone else is racing to the bottom?   Here's what most ecommerce brands get completely wrong about Black Friday: they think success is only possible with massive discounts, which equals damaged brand equity, razor-thin margins, and training your customer-base to only buy during big discount sale events.    But there's a massive opportunity here that most premium brands are completely missing.   I'm sharing an overview of the 5-pillar framework for running a premium Black Friday campaign that protects your margins, elevates your brand, creates momentum beyond the weekend, and most importantly – doesn't contribute to that discount burnout that killed sales for so many brands last year.     Subscribe & Review In iTunes Are you subscribed to my podcast?

If you want a strong Q4, your work starts now. Too many subscription box owners treat the 4th quarter like it starts in November. But if you want October sales to be strong – and if you want to ride that momentum straight through the holiday season – your prep needs to start in late summer. In this episode of The Launch Your Box Podcast, I'm walking you through four things you can do right now to set yourself up for your best Q4 yet. Whether you're running a subscription box, selling one-time products, or offering holiday gift subscriptions, these steps will help you plan, promote, and sell with confidence, instead of scrambling. And because I know this can feel overwhelming, I'm also inviting you to join me inside my Ultimate Q4 Planning Workshop, where we'll spend one focused day mapping out your entire quarter, together. Q4 is the biggest sales quarter of the year. Some small business owners make half their annual revenue between October and December. But here's the mistake most people make: They think Q4 starts when they post their first Black Friday sale. By that point, you've already missed valuable weeks of visibility and momentum.  The truth? Q4 success starts at the end of Q3. Before October arrives, you should already know: Which promotions you'll run and when What products (and how much) you'll need to make them happen How you'll market each offer If you can't answer those questions yet, you're already behind. Step 1: Plan Your Q4 Promotions Now Start with the end in mind when you answer the question, “What are you going to sell?” Step 2: Grow Your Following + Your Email List You need both visibility and ownership heading into Q4. Step 3: Warm Up Your Audience Don't wait until you're ready to sell to show up. If someone joins your list in August and doesn't hear from you until November, they're not likely to buy. Warm-up content builds trust and anticipation so that when you do make your offer, people are ready to say yes. Step 4: Keep Your Plan Simple, But Real You don't need to create every caption, email, or ad today. But you do need to know what you're promoting, when you'll promote it, and how you'll promote it. That's exactly what we'll do together in my Ultimate Q4 Planning Workshop. In one day, we'll: Plan your promotions Map your marketing calendar Identify the emails and posts you'll need Forecast inventory and shipping timelines You'll walk away with a complete Q4 roadmap. Ready to execute, no scrambling required. If Q4 usually feels like chaos, this episode will show you how to change that. Listen in for practical steps you can take this week to get ahead. And find out how to join me for the Ultimate Q4 Planning Workshop, so you can head into the busiest season of the year feeling confident and in control.

In this episode of the TestGuild DevOps Toolchain Podcast, host Joe Colantonio sits down with Jennifer Rahmani, Co-founder and COO of Thoras.ai, a company redefining how infrastructure scales with AI-driven predictive technology. Drawing from her years as a DevOps engineer in the defense tech sector, Jennifer shares how she and her twin sister turned real-world frustrations into a reliability-first platform that eliminates the guesswork from scaling. We discuss how Thoras.ai integrates with Kubernetes to predict workload demand minutes—or even hours—in advance, allowing teams to maintain high availability without overspending. Jennifer explains why they use the right AI for the right use case, how their predictive autoscaling works in multi-cloud and hybrid environments, and how it helps SREs avoid downtime during unpredictable events like Black Friday or major product launches. Whether you're dealing with noisy data, high cloud bills, or sleepless nights worrying about reliability, this episode delivers practical insights for making smarter scaling decisions.

Frenetic crowds are storming the White House like a Black Friday mob at Walmart!Only these are not shoppers scrambling for family needs – these are CEOs, lobbyists, and billionaires out to “get theirs” in the huge Trump-a-Thon sell-off of Presidential favors. Common folks need not apply, since MAGA, Inc. (Trump's political fundraising sack) charges a million bucks or more just to buy access to his golden throne.Once there, everything is for sale. One cryptocurrency huckster, for example, delivered his million to get into a candlelight dinner at Mar-a-Lago, where he pitched a business deal to Trump himself. Then, for an extra $200,000, the crypto-guy was allowed to “sponsor” the annual Easter Egg Roll on the White House lawn. Yes – they've even financialized and corporatized an apolitical, publicly-funded event for children!Not only is Trump being bought by Big Money, but he's also available for short-term lease. For example, rich businesswoman Elizabeth Fago leased him in April for some heavy lifting on a household chore. Her son Paul had been found guilty last year of tax crimes and was headed to prison. But a million dollar check to MAGA Inc. put her in direct touch with Mister Fix-It. Sure enough, once her check was cashed, the fortunate son was granted “a full and unconditional” presidential pardon – no jail time, no payment of restitution to his victims.When the New York Times asked about such corrupt selling of official favors, MAGA Inc. declared that Trump treats every American the same. So, there you have Trump's million-dollar definition of “American.” If you've got the million, you're in the club. If you don't, you're not.Jim Hightower's Lowdown is a reader-supported publication.

When Miranda Kerr was just 16, her mother's cancer diagnosis became a turning point prompting her to look closely at what she was putting in and on her body. That moment sparked a lifelong passion for holistic health and organic living, ultimately becoming the seed for KORA Organics.
