Who doesn't love the smell of a Christmas tree? It seems to be a smell everybody finds pleasing and it also turns out to have some benefits. This episode begins with some reasons why you should take the time to enjoy the scent of pine. https://www.foxnews.com/health/the-healing-power-of-pine Being part of an audience can be magical. Whether you are watching a play or a movie or a concert, the audience members can become a singular force – getting energy and emotion from one another. So, how did audiences come to be? How did audiences learn how to behave? Why do we applaud? Here to discuss all this and more is Robert Viagas. He is Editor-in-chief of Encore Monthly the national theatre magazine and spent much of his career working with Playbill. He is author of the book called Right This Way: A History of the Audience (https://amzn.to/46F8lOS). If there is one thing people like, it is certainty. We like to be sure of ourselves and we like people who seem certain about things. However, uncertainty has its benefits. When you are uncertain about something, it allows you to be curious and ultimately make better decisions. That's according to journalist Maggie Jackson. Her work has appeared in The New York Times, Business Week, Vanity Fair and Wired.com and she is author of the book, Uncertain: The Wisdom and Wonder of Being Unsure (https://amzn.to/3Gli42b).  What if there were some very simple ways that would make sure you get more done in less time?

In this episode, Danielle is joined by Mike Michalowicz, the author of Profit First, as they tackle questions from Mike's email inbox regarding doing your Instant Assessment. In addition to highlighting the importance of adhering to established profit percentages as a business grows, they provide additional guidance to another business owner to use the Profit First Target Allocation Percentages Chart for financial clarity, and help yet another entrepreneur on how to simplify income and expense categorization.  BONUS: Danielle provides additional valuable insights, emphasizing the significance of sales and providing practical pricing strategies for service-based businesses. IN THIS EPISODE: [00:36] Introduction to Episode - Q&A about instant assessments [00:47] Question 1 - Real revenue calculation for a fitness equipment distributor [04:10] Question 2 - Owner's comp and adjusting allocation percentages as the business grows [07:40]Question 3 - Challenges in understanding real revenue for a telehealth business [15:36] Question 4 - Calculating materials and subs for a plumbing business [21:27] Question 5 - Allocating expenses for an Airbnb management business KEY TAKEAWAYS: For businesses with significant material costs, especially those exceeding 10% of gross revenue, it's crucial to make a real revenue adjustment. Subtracting these costs gives a more accurate picture of the service-based real  revenue generated. As a business grows or experiences changes, adhere to the Target Allocation Percentages Chart, but be open to dynamic adjustments. Working with a Profit First professional helps in recalibrating allocations based on the current business status. Keep expense categorization simple. Break down costs transparently for customers when necessary, allowing for better communication and potentially higher acceptance of fees. If managing multiple entities, maintain clarity by treating each business separately. ABOUT THE HOSTS:   Danielle Mulvey is a former flight attendant-turned-entrepreneur and owns multiple businesses doing $50 million in annual revenue. She is one of the exclusive, select group of Mastery-Certified Profit First Professionals worldwide and the go-to “HOW TO IMPLEMENT” workshop facilitator for Profit First and WSJ Journal best-selling author Mike Michalowicz following his keynote speeches. Danielle is currently running multiple businesses, from start-ups to mature businesses with 10-year plus track records and revenues ranging from $1M to $40 million in annual revenues and is a certified numbers geek about Profit First, leveraging the DIY cash management system for small business to achieve maximum profitability. She can personally guide business owners to achieve maximum profitability based on her 25 years of experience as an entrepreneur who has been there and done that.   Additionally, Danielle authored the book The Rapid Read™ Guide to The 5-Star Employee Hiring System™ and is currently collaborating with Wall Street Journal best-selling author Mike Michalowicz on his new book, to be released in Q1 2024, titled ALL IN: How Great Leaders Build Unstoppable Teams. Mike Michalowicz is an entrepreneur and New York Times and Wall Street Journal best-selling author of Profit First, The Pumpkin Plan, SURGE, Toilet Paper Entrepreneur, Clockwork, Fix This Next and Get Different. BusinessWeek called Toilet Paper Entrepreneur, a business cult classic. His books have been translated into ten languages, and Mike has had the privilege to speak on stages worldwide because of his passion for connecting with entrepreneurs.   As the founder of Profit First Professionals, he empowers accountants, bookkeepers, and business coaches with the tools and techniques to maximize client profitability, allowing them to uplevel from being one of the 83% of small businesses operating check-to-check and struggling to be profitable to becoming one of the 17% of thriving and highly valuable businesses with cash in the bank to correlate to profitability. Mike also co-founded the business growth consultancy Provendus Group and has successfully founded, built, and sold two technology service-based companies.

Greil Marcus is perhaps the world's foremost interpreter of Bob Dylan. This podcast focuses on Marcus' latest Dylan book, Folk Music: A Bob Dylan Biography in Seven Songs (Yale University Press, 2022). Marcus begins his book with a 2001 quote from Dylan: “I can see myself in others.” In this sense, Marcus writes, “the engine of his songs is empathy.” We begin our conversation with “Murder Most Foul,” from 2020, on the assassination of John F. Kennedy, with Dylan “putting on Kennedy's bloody suit.” We discuss, too, “Desolation Row,” from 1965. The opening line— “They're selling postcards of the hanging…”— could be a reference, Marcus suggests, to a lynching of three black circus workers in Duluth, Minnesota in 1920, just over twenty years before Dylan was born there. And Marcus offers insights on the five other songs covered in this volume: “Blowin' in the Wind”/1962; “The Lonesome Death of Hattie Caroll”/1964; “The Times They Are A-Changin'”/1964; “Jim Jones”/1992; and “Ain't Talkin'”/2006. Veteran journalist Paul Starobin is a former Moscow bureau chief for Business Week and a former contributing editor of The Atlantic. He has written for The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal and many other publications.

One hundred years of research tells us that a bump in salary does not impact employee engagement. In fact, MIT recently published findings showing that how appreciated employees feel has three times more influence on their decision to stay or leave a job than compensation. Not only does this reduce the cost of turnover, but companies that pay attention to their human capital outperform others. Dr. Paul White joins Kevin to discuss the 5 Languages of Appreciation in the workplace. These include Words of Affirmation, Quality Time, Acts of Service, Tangible Gifts, and Physical Touch. The implementation of appreciation isn't a top-down process. It starts with education, creating a shared language among team members, and then grows naturally. It's about connecting people and recognizing them for who they are, not just their work.

The focus is turning to hospitals in Gaza, where Israel accuses Hamas of housing command centers and weapons. President Biden says the Alshifa Hospital in Gaza City must be protected. I have not been reluctant and especially my concerns going on and is my hope and expectation that there will be less intrusive action role through hospital. President Biden's concern about civilian casualties is being answered by Israel's Economy Minister Near Barkat, do you understand that we have to wipe isis Comeaus off the map and we will do it with minimal collateral damage.

Economists say inflation probably ease to an annual rate of three point three percent, and we get a preview from Bloomberg's crety GUPDA. There are some varied estimates here, but I think the takeaway is simply that some of the disinflation, the progress essentially that has been happening in the US economy when it comes to inflation, is going to slow down. So it's not that it's going to increase, but it's also not going to be making as much downward progress as we expect, at least has to take out of Bloomberg Economics, and I think that's the concern here for a lot of the people who are pricing in a more dubvish Federal Reserve, which is simply that this is going to be the key data point that suggests the Federal Reserve is not done hiking at all. You heard Chairman Powell last week hint at that and kind of say, well, we're going to be as hawkish as we need to be. This is the data point that might back that up.

That we work together in order to ensure that this deadly poison that is killing people in San Francisco in significant numbers and all over the country, that we're able to combat this to stop it.

Bloomberg consensus calls for comp sales to fall three point three one percent, of the decline in the US three point six seven percent. Still, net sales expected to be thirty seven point seven billion dollars, So just at earnings per share of three dollars seventy six cents. Tom busby Bloomberg Radio, All right, Tom, thanks back to commodities. The International Energy Agency says global oil markets won't be as tight as expected this quarter. IEA says sea supply tipping back into a surplus in the first half of twenty twenty four. Sorry, Nathan. Thanks. It's time now for a look at some of the o their stories making news around the world, and for that we're joined again by Bloombery sa Amy Morris Samy, Good morning, Good morning, Karen. There is growing concern about a possible government shutdown later this week, but that could also spell chaos for millions of Americans planning to travel during the holiday season. Without a deal in Congress by this Friday night, air traffic controllers and TSA workers could be forced to work without pay. And this is expected to be a record travel season. David Cymour, as chief operating officer with American Airlines, We're going to carry more customer than we ever have before, about a half a million more than last year. And House Speaker Mike Johnson has submitted a stopgap measure, but that doesn't include any money for Israel. Or Ukraine, and it doesn't have spending cuts that a lot of Republicans want. The US Supreme Court has adopted a new code of conduct, the first in the Court's history. Loyola Law School professor and former federal prosecutor Laurie Levinson says the adoption of the code itself is significant. There has been a great deal a criticism of the Supreme Court. Much of it has been focused on Justice Thomas and Justice Alito because they received gifts, they haven't made full disclosure of travel and other types of benefits, and so now we have a clear standard. But critics call the code itself toothless because it doesn't include a mechanism for enforcement. A former attorney for Donald Trump has testified against the former president and the Georgia election interference case. Jenna Ellis recounted a conversation with Dan Scavino, who served as Trump's deputy chief of staff. Video recording of that testimony was obtained by The Washington Post. He said, well, the Boss, meaning President Trump, and everyone understood the Boss, That's what we all called him. He said, the Boss is not going to leave under any circumstances. We are just going to stay in power. Trump's lead counsel in the Fulton County case says Ellis's testimony is absolutely meaningless. Ellis is one of four co defendants to plead guilty in that case out of eighteen people, and died it Alongside Donald Trump, the president of the United Auto Workers Union is headlining a hearing on Capitol Hill to talk about the resurgence of unions. UAW president Sean Faine, along with Teamster's president Sean O'Brien and Flight Attendance Union president Sarah Nelson, will provide testimony before the Senate Labor Committee on the role of unions in the lives of working families.

This is Bloomberg Daybreak. Good morning, I'm Nathan Hager. Israel's war with Humas now appears to be centering on hospitals in Gaza, where the Palestinian militant group is accused of housing command centers and weapons. President Biden is saying the main hospital in Gaza City, Alshifa, must be protected as Israel intensifies its ground campaign. For the latest, we're joined now by Bloomberg's Oliver crook Oli. Good morning, get us up to speed on the situation in a northern Gaza, particularly around these hospitals that do now appear to be the center of attention. Yeah, so Nathan completely in the center of attention, and the ground offensive is still just raise it raging on in the northern part of Gaza, really cementing their positions around Gaza City and entering Gaza City. As we've seen, we've also heard that a great number of people have fled over the last ten days. The UN says that more than two hundred thousand people have moved south. That brings the total of almost two thirds of Gaza's a population of two point three million people that have fled their homes. The Defense Minister of Israel says that Hamas has lost control of Gaza at this stage. But really, as you say, the focus is on these hospitals and really beginning to test the limits of where the limit of self defense is, which has been really a question, I think for everybody since the beginning of this conflict, and everyone has a different answer to that. But we're starting to see that progress a little bit, particularly with the United States, which as we know, is a key ally for Israel in this battle. No, we did speak to Israel's economy minister Near Barkat on Bloomberg Radio and he seemed to echo a lot of the determination we're hearing from the Israeli government to destroy Hamas. It does make you wonder what those limits are. Lallie. I think it's a good question, and it's going to be in determined I suspect in part by what the United States says and how they say it. Right, So we're talking about a death toll. This is according to the Palestinian authorities, of more than eleven thousand people in Gaza, right, and two thirds allegedly are going our women and children. This is an absolutely huge figure of people and many of the allies of Israel. You know, you heard it from President mac Hole on Friday, who himself called for a ceasefire. And now You're starting to hear Joe Biden talk about restraint, Blincoln himself saying that too many Palestinians have been killed, Sullivan saying no firefights and hospitals, And we know that it is that sort of the US's behes that we got some of these humanitarian pauses. So really the question is where does it reach its limit? Again, So a lot of this stuff is going to be behind the closed doors, the discussions with Biden and Netanya who not taken out into the public, but you're starting to notice it in a lot of the public statements we're hearing from US officials. And as this fighting goes on and it compares to intensify, the question goes on as to how much longer this war can continue, how much more intense we could see that fighting take place, particularly around these population centers that do have very sensitive operations in Gaza City completely. And then there's the after question as well. But let's deal with the for how long question, which is you know, again, what Netanya who has said, and he said this as recently as a day or two ago, was that it will take not many years, right, So he's not ruling out the year's quantity of time. In this he says it'll take less time than the US took in defeating ISIS and al Qaeda, which again does not really narrow a very sort of slow and small window of period of time. But he's, you know, from the very beginning, giving himself a lot of flexibility in terms of how long this can go. And now the real question this we see another split potentially between the US and Israel, is what happens afterwards netnya who's suggesting that they will have indefinite control over Gaza. The security operations said, they say they don't want to rule it, but they also say they don't want to relinquish security control over Gaza. So again, these are all the sorts of points that are going to see develop And of course the big question is what is the future of Netanya? Who and whose decision will it be once there is peace about what happens with the relationship between Gaza and Palestine and Israel. And before we get even to all those questions about the future of Gaza and the future of the Israeli government, there's still this ongoing discussion about freeing hostages in Guza. What's the update there completely So the latest that we've heard from this is that Biden spoke to the Katari emir As we know, Qatar has played an absolutely fundamental role in the sort of got between Israel and of and the United States and Hamas. We hear again and again that there is potential progress on a deal, but every time we hear that, it's sort of backslides. So again, there has been more and more talked about it over the last few days, but I think you really cannot really rely on anything until it's fully secured. What we do know is that Israel has entirely ruled out a ceasefire until all the hostages have been freed, and in our last thirty seconds, the discussion we've had with Israel's economy minister, it seems like there's a determination as well to keep this fight going, even if it damages Israel's budget, even if it damages the economy. Yeah, I mean, the impact on the Israeli economy has been very sort of covid like in many respects where you know, obviously there's a war effort underway, but we've subtracted let's say, three hundred and fifty thousand people from the workforce that's about eight percent of the Israeli Workfor us is when you go down the streets, you know, many of the businesses are closed, all the universities are on pause. All of this stuff is really a standstill. But again, they see this as an existential fight, so they're gonna be willing to pay the price.
