Mackelly and Simon (and Jon) wonder where the Free Folk's loyalties lie.Chapter Review:Jon Snow heads south to Mole's Town with wagons of supplies for the Free Folk. Along the way he sees newly carved faces in the trees. Clearly the conversion to R'hllor hasn't universally landed.The new residents emerge to find that Jon can only spare starvation rations. Squabbles and arguments break out. Jon has a war horn blown to quiet the crowd.He explains that the defenders of the Wall get more rations, they need their strength. Any of the Free Folk are welcome to join. They don't have to take the Black, they don't have to kneel, but they do have to obey orders. Sixty three wildlings take up the challenge, but the Thenns resist looking at Jon with disdain. Bowen Marsh has mixed feelings about the new recruits. Like Jon he's sure they'll fight the Others, but will they resist a Wildling attack?Characters/Places/Names/Events:Jon Snow - Bastard son of Ned Stark.

Send us a textJon tours the quickly dwindling food stores of the Night's Watch and then is summoned by King Stannis. The king offers Jon a surprising gift, then adds to the shock by revealing his risky plan to win the north. Jon redirects him to a new plan that is safer and has huge upsides. Mackelly and Simon fear that Stannis is not earning their loyalty.Chapter Review:Jon Snow joins Bowen Marsh to inspect winter food stores held beneath Castle Black. Despite past generosity from lords and a long summer, feeding Stannis' army and wildlings has depleted supplies. Marsh proposes winter rations early. Jon agrees, knowing it'll cause unrest.Jon later meets Stannis, Melisandre, and others in the king's solar. Stannis gifts Jon a controlled Rattleshirt as a soldier. Discussion turns to Mors Umber's terms for support. Stannis hesitates, but Jon urges acceptance, warning that rejecting Mors' terms would turn the North against him. Stannis reveals plans to take the Dreadfort, but Jon argues the Boltons will return too soon and crush Stannis' force. Pressed to arm wildlings, Jon reluctantly offers basic gear, wary of violating the Night's Watch vows. Privately, Stannis tempts Jon again with legitimization and Winterfell. Jon refuses but proposes recruiting Northern mountain clans instead. If successful, Stannis could retake Deepwood Motte and build support. Stannis likes the plan—but Jon's left with more mouths to feed.Characters/Places/Names/Events:Jon Snow - Bastard son of Ned Stark.

Join us for our deep dive into the Battle at the Wall - the set piece battle of a Storm of Swords! We recap all of the characters involved and explore the setup: from Jon Snow's time with the Free Folk and the subsequent attack on Castle Black, to how Mance Rayder motivated thousands of Free Folk to move south as one group, and what brought Stannis Baratheon north after his crushing defeat at the Blackwater. Then we go step by step through the initial assault on the Wall by Mance's massive army, Jon Snow's defensive response, and the final and surprising conclusion. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Send us a textJon watches as Mance Rayder and the Horn of Joramun are consigned to the flames. Stannis displays Lightbringer and the free folk are invited to come through the Wall, to bend the knee, and to get a bowl of onion soup. Mackelly and Simon fear that Stannis is not earning their loyalty.Chapter Review:Jon Snow watches as Mance Rayder is dragged to his death. The former Brother of the Night's Watch and King Beyond the Wall is a broken man desperately pleading for his life and disavowing his kingship. He's put in a cage above a pit of kindling. Melisandre brings forth the Horn of Joramun, which if blown would have brought down the Wall and let the enemy in. She burns it in the pit, and the flames reach up to Mance.Acting on Jon's orders, several of his men loose shafts to put their former brother out of his misery. As the smell of burning flesh fills the courtyard, Stannis unsheathes Lightbringer, brighter than ever, and the gate through the Wall is opened. The Free Folk are allowed through - the promise of soup and safety from the terrors of winter convince most. But some resist.Stannis has them burn weirwood branches to show their conversion from the Old Gods to R'Hllor and to take the knee before him. All this was against Jon's advice. But Stannis is more interested in loyalty than love.Later, Jon discusses with Clydas the passage that Aemon left for Jon, which describes Lightbringer's heat. Stannis' sword is cold. Is straight arrow Stannis resorting to subterfuge?Characters/Places/Names/Events:Jon Snow - Bastard son of Ned Stark.

Send us a textDavos is marooned on Sweetsister, Salladhor Saan has lost patience with his unpaid service to Stannis. The local lord is sorely tempted to sell his guest to Queen Cersei. But tradition dictates that he aids a rebel. Mackelly and Simon assume Davos will be OK, at least until he gets to White Harbor.Chapter Review:Davos Seaworth is brought before Lord Godric Borrell. The onion knight has rowed to Sweetsister after being abandoned by Salladhor Saan. The Lyseni pirate has given up following orders after half his ships were lost to storms on the journey south from Eastwatch. That is the final straw after Stannis has shown no sign of rewarding anyone for their service. Instead he intends to sail to the Stepstones for some more profitable piracy.Lord Godric ponders selling Davos to Cersei - who is in charge again after the death of Tywin, which is news to Davos. Godric won't allow a bird to be sent to Castle Black - he won't take sides in the Game of Thrones.But he does recall his father aiding Ned Stark in a similar fashion at the start of Robert's Rebellion. Ned got away, leaving a fisherman's daughter pregnant - she called the child Jon. Davos can go to White Harbor but the Manderlys have thrown their lot in with the Freys. And if Stannis loses, Davos was never here.Characters/Places/Names/Events:Davos Seaworth - Hand of the King to King Stannis Baratheon.Lord Godric Borrell - Lord of Sweetsister.Stannis Baratheon - King of the Seven Kingdoms.Ned Stark - Deceased patriarch of House Stark.Wyman Manderly - Lord of White Harbor.Sweetsister - One of the Three Sisters, islands in the Bite between the Vale and the North.

Send us a textJon sends Aemon, Gilly, Sam, and the wrong baby away from the Wall. He appoints Night's Watch brothers to rebuild and command castles along the Wall. Janos Slynt refuses and Jon levies a stiff punishment in response. Stannis approves. Simon and Mackelly admire Jon's transformation - from boy to man.Chapter Review:Jon has met with Maester Aemon, who provided the same advice he once gave to his brother Egg: Kill the boy so that the man may be born. Time to grow up. Jon puts this into practice when he meets with Gilly and explains what she must do to save Dalla's baby - give up her own. She agrees under considerable duress.Next, he meets with Sam who must go to Oldtown and become a maester. Sam is flustered, a Tarly cannot wear a chain of servitude, and he cannot learn to heal because he's scared of blood. Jon reminds him that he's a brother of the Night's Watch, and while he cannot order him to be brave, he can order him to hide his fears. He will go and he'll earn his chain.Lastly, Jon commissions Bedwyck to refit and take command of the abandoned way-castle at Icemark. He'll command 30 men. Bedwyck's a seasoned ranger and Jon knows he'll prove more than capable. He gives Janos Slynt the same opportunity at Greyguard. Slynt refuses. Jon gives him a chance to back down but the oaf won't listen. When Jon calls for his seizure and execution Slynt's friends melt away. Jon decapitates Slynt before the approving eyes of King Stannis.Characters/Places/Names/Events:Jon Snow - Bastard son of Ned Stark.

Send us a textJon has a wolf dream and wakes to face a trying day. He meets with Stannis and disappoints him by rejecting the king's plan to assume control of the abandoned Night's Watch castles. Afterward, he talks with Melisandre who gives him an ominous warning. Simon and Mackelly interpret her meaning.Chapter Review:Ghost races along the Wall in the night. As he runs, he senses his packmates in their various locations around Westeros. Jon Snow wakes in Castle Black realizing that he was warging Ghost in the night. He dresses and sees the unsigned grant from King Stannis sitting on his desk. This won't be an easy day.Jon finds Stannis and Melisandre in the King's Tower. The king is angry over another rejection letter from a northern house to his call for their support. This time it's 10-year-old Lyanna Mormont who tells him that House Mormont will support only the King in the North, whose name is Stark. Jon tells Stannis that only Mance Rayder can bind the wildlings to the king. Stannis knows but still can't spare the man's life. He is an oathbreaker. Stannis asks if Jon has signed the grant giving Stannis all of the empty Night's Watch castles. Jon hasn't, the ask is too high. Jon suggests that the Night's Watch provide the leaders for the castles and Stannis provides the garrisons, the need not Take the Black. Stannis rejects the idea. Melisandre walks Jon out. Outside she tells him that she has seen him in the flames with enemies all around. She sees ice, blood, daggers, and cold. When Jon says it's always cold at the Wall, she tells him he knows nothing.Characters/Places/Names/Events:Jon Snow - Bastard son of Ned Stark.

Sam is miserable aboard the ship headed for Braavos. Gilly is inconsolable and he's seasick. He can't understand her tears until Maester Aemon points out that she left her own baby at Castle Black, and that she's nursing Dalla's child. Simon and Mackelly try to keep down their breakfast.Chapter Review:Samwell Tarly is seasick aboard the Blackbird. He takes solace in his companions' hopeful futures: Gilly will be a maid at Horn Hill, Dareon will recruit for the Night's Watch using his singing, and Maester Aemon will retire at the Citadel, safe from Melisandre's fires.Gilly and her baby are miserable, rarely leaving their cabin. Sam's fear of the sea dates back to his father Randyll Tarly's harsh swimming lesson. This voyage is only his second, the first being a traumatic trip to the Arbor where he was bullied and rejected as a foster child by Lord Paxter Redwyne.Dareon complains about Gilly's distress. Sam defends her, understanding her fear of the unfamiliar ocean. Maester Aemon reminisces about his voyage to the Wall with Ser Duncan the Tall. Aemon enjoys the rain but becomes ill from exposure.Violent storms batter the ship, intensifying their misery. The sailors blame their bad luck on having a woman aboard. When Sam asks Aemon for a remedy for Gilly's distress, the maester reveals her sorrow is due to grief, not fear. Gilly's baby is not her own; she left her child at Castle Black and took Dalla's baby instead. Lord Commander Jon Snow orchestrated this swap to protect the child from Melisandre's fires.Sam is horrified and questions his involvement in making Jon Lord Commander. As the sea briefly calms, Dareon mocks Sam's prediction of more storms, calling him craven. Burdened by the weight of recent revelations, Sam knows the worst is yet to come.Characters/Places/Names/Events:Samwell Tarly - Brother of the Night's Watch, friend to John Snow.

A thousand years ago, Karlon Stark put down a rebel lord and was rewarded with lands and a castle he named Karhold. The Karhold Starks became House Karstark, greatly benefiting Winterfell and the reverse to the Dreadfort. Over the centuries, the Starks and Karstarks would intermarry several times, renewing their ancient ties through marriage alliance. But the events of ASOIAF have seen great change, as Rickard Karstark went from staunch ally of King Robb Stark to the execution block. There's now a rush to claim Karhold - his daughter Alys married Sigorn, son of the man who led the attack on Castle Black and they've got 200 Thenns backing them, but the lawful heir Harrion Karstark is still alive in the south and Arnolf Karstark has conspired with the Boltons to betray Stannis to claim the castle for his son Cregan.

The Ghosts of Harrenhal: A Song of Ice and Fire Podcast (ASOIAF)
Jon is summoned by King Stannis. The king offers Jon his dream come true; the title of Lord Stark of Winterfell. Stannis also plans to let the wildlings through the Wall, if they bend the knee. Jon agrees with the wildling plan but needs time to think about being legitimized and made lord of Winterfell. Simon and Mackelly consider shopping for castle-warming gifts.Chapter Review:Jon Snow spars in the yard of Castle Black with Satin. Melisandre interrupts; King Stannis wants a word with Jon. Stannis tells Jon he's heard much about him. Jon confirms some facts and dispels some rumors. The bottom line is that he never turned his cloak. The king believes him. Stannis knows Janos Slynt and knew Ned Stark. Stannis reveals that he plans to let the wildlings through the Wall, as long as they bend the knee and take R'hllor as their true god. The king explains that he's here to fight the true enemy: the Great Other. They will need the wildling's help in that fight.Stannis then tells Jon the primary reason he sent for him. The king doesn't need another sword in the Night's Watch. He needs the North. There's no better way to rally the North than through a son of Eddard Stark. He plans to legitimize Jon, making him Jon Stark the Lord of Winterfell. It was a dream of Jon's when he was young, but he never wanted harm to come to his siblings. However, he's likely the last of them alive. But there's another issue: he's taken The Black. Melisandre says his vow is meaningless, since it wasn't said to R'hellor. The final detail of the plan is that Stannis wants to marry Jon to the wildling Val. Jon asks for time to consider the offer.Characters/Places/Names/Events:Jon Snow - Bastard son of Ned Stark. Member of the Night's Watch.Stannis Baratheon - Brother of dead King Robert, claims the Iron Throne because Cersei's children are not Robert's.Melisandre - Red Woman of Ashaii.

The Ghosts of Harrenhal: A Song of Ice and Fire Podcast (ASOIAF)
Jon gets a reprieve from the ice cell and noose that Thorne and Slynt had promised. Hooray! It's so he can go on a suicide mission to assassinate Mance Rayder. Boo! But at the last second redemption comes from an unlikely source. Simon and Mackelly consider the new power structures at the Wall.Chapter Review:Jon is lowered down the north face of the Wall in a cage. It beats the tiny ice cell in which he'd been held for the last 4 days. Thorne and Slynt's plan to hang him had been foiled by Maester Aemon. But they've found a sure-fire alternative. He's to go parlay with Mance Rayder, murder the King Beyond the Wall in the middle of his army, and then make it back alone to Castle Black - this will prove his loyalty.Tormund guides him through angry faces - none are pleased to see the turncoat back in black. Mance's woman Dalla is about to give birth. Mance himself is relatively sanguine about Jon's return. He never trusted Jon enough to tell him that they had found the fabled Horn of Winter in the Frostfangs. Mance says that the Night's Watch will let the wildlings pass through the Wall or the horn will be blown in three days, and they'll pass through the rubble instead.Jon concedes that the Night's Watch might consider this, if Mance and his people bend the knee. But Mance won't promise that. Seeing an impasse, Jon looks for ways to carry out the assassination. But before anything happens, an army attack the wildlings. It's Stannis coming west from Eastwatch, and he routes Mance's forces with ease. During the chaos, Dalla goes into labor. Characters/Places/Names/Events:Jon Snow - Bastard son of Ned Stark.

The handful of brothers eat, sleep, and fight on top of the Wall, while Mance Rayder can throw limitless fresh troops against them. Mance's latest twist is a huge rolling shelter that can shield many wildlings from attacks from above. The Black Brothers named the contraption “the turtle.” Jon has his men drop barrels of ice and rocks on the turtle and send the wildlings scurrying back to the safety of the forest.Jon then returns to his little chamber in the King's Tower for some much needed sleep.

Timestamped summary of this episode: 00:00:08 - Introduction, Mario Martinez Jr. introduces himself as the CEO and founder of Vengreso and the host of the Modern Selling podcast. He welcomes the audience and mentions that they will be discussing the value sale ROI in this episode. 00:01:36 - About Ian Campbell and Nucleus Research, Mario introduces Ian Campbell, the CEO of Nucleus Research and author of the book "The Value Sale." Ian shares his background in technology and explains that Nucleus Research focuses on helping vendors and end users understand the return on investment from technology. 00:05:33 - The Value Sale Book, Ian discusses his book "The Value Sale" and its purpose of providing salespeople with a process to build a business case and demonstrate value to customers. He emphasizes the importance of ROI in helping customers understand the potential return they will get from a product. 00:06:51 - Easy Way to Determine Positive ROI, Ian introduces the concept of breadth and repeatability as indicators of positive ROI. The more people use a product and the more often they use it, the greater the potential ROI. He advises salespeople to consider these factors when evaluating the potential value for a customer. 00:09:56 - Leading with ROI, Ian suggests that while ROI is an important metric, payback period is even more impactful. Salespeople should focus on how quickly a customer will cover their costs and the return they will receive over time. Payback period can be a more compelling metric when discussing financial 00:13:51 - The Importance of ROI in Sales, The conversation begins by discussing the significance of showcasing ROI to end users. The guest emphasizes the need to focus on increasing productivity and saving tangible resources, such as time. The value proposition should highlight the number of hours saved and the cost justification. 00:15:08 - Categorizing Benefits and ROI, The guest introduces the concept of categorizing benefits into direct, intended, productivity gain, and distant categories. While direct and intended categories are easy to calculate, distant benefits, like happier employees, have a lower impact on ROI. The key is to focus on the two big benefits that drive the deal. 00:16:20 - The Value of Hours Saved, The guest emphasizes the importance of focusing on the number of hours saved and how it justifies the cost. Even a few hours saved can make a significant impact. By calculating the worst-case scenario, it becomes evident that the value proposition for sales should revolve around the hours saved. 00:17:43 - Simplifying ROI for Marketing Sequences, The guest suggests a brilliant question to ask in marketing sequences: "How many hours do I really need to save you to justify the cost?" This simplifies the ROI discussion and helps in converting more people. He advises focusing on the two big benefits that drive the deal and not getting caught up in other smaller benefits. 00:19:07 - Challenges of ROI in Larger Opportunities, The guest acknowledges the difficulty of unpacking ROI in larger opportunities and more. 00:26:11 - The Importance of Payback Period, Understanding the payback period is crucial in making informed decisions about signing a contract. It helps determine if a project will cover its costs within a reasonable timeframe and if the return on investment is favorable. Shorter payback periods increase the likelihood of moving forward with a project. 00:27:28 - Mitigating Risk with Payback Period, A shorter payback period reduces the risk associated with a project. If the costs can be covered within a few months, even if the decision turns out to be a bad one, the project will have already generated positive value. Emphasizing a quick payback period can accelerate decision-making. 00:28:00 - Leveraging Payback Period in Marketing, Highlighting a quick payback period in marketing can be more impactful than focusing on a small daily cost. Demonstrating how quickly customers can cover their costs and start generating positive value is a stronger selling point. Real-life examples and customer testimonials can reinforce these claims. 00:29:38 - Using Payback Period to Improve Sales Messaging. Incorporating the idea of payback period into sales messaging can significantly enhance the effectiveness of the message. By framing benefits as numbers that contribute to covering costs and generating positive value, sales reps can appeal to prospects' desire for tangible returns. 00:30:01 - Avoiding Common Mistakes in Building a Business Case Sales reps often make the mistake of including too many benefits in their business case, diluting the impact of their message. 00:39:02 - The Power of Simplifying Product Benefits, Ian Campbell emphasizes the importance of focusing on the three key ways a product impacts customers, making it easier to articulate their value. He encourages salespeople to drop the mic and make sure the benefits drive to those big numbers. 00:39:38 - Connecting with Ian Campbell, Mario asks how listeners can connect with Ian Campbell, suggesting Twitter and LinkedIn. Ian recommends finding him on LinkedIn and reaching out to Nucleus Research for valuable resources and articles on topics like IRR. Personalized connection requests are encouraged. 00:40:43 - Quota Performance and Sales Challenges. Mario asks about the latest research on the percentage of sellers making quota. Ian shares that they are about to launch a survey to gather this data. He mentions that while revenues may be down, competition is up, and deals are extending rather than falling off. 00:42:29 - Research Collaboration Opportunity, Mario offers to connect Ian with their database of 100,000 sellers, business owners, and sales leaders if they need to poll for research. Ian expresses his appreciation and interest in collaborating for future research. 00:42:39 - Ian Campbell's Favorite Movie. Mario asks Ian about his all-time favorite movie. Ian chooses "Castle Black" as a classic old film with a cheesy charm and memorable one-liners. He considers it a movie that never gets tiresome and stands out among the rest. Leveraging ROI and Payback to Close Deals A key aspect of successful sales is the ability to convincingly demonstrate the Return on Investment (ROI) and payback period to potential customers. Showcasing the tangible benefits, savings, and productivity gains that will be achieved through the purchase in a simple and believable manner can expedite the decision-making process. By leading with a short payback period, sales professionals can alleviate risk concerns, making it easier for decision-makers to approve the purchase.
