There was a time when Ycee looked destined to become the face of Nigerian hip-hop. Songs like Jagaban, Juice, Condo, and Link Up made him one of the hottest rappers in the country. Then somewhere along the line, the momentum slowed down. New artists emerged, the industry changed, and Ycee gradually faded from the spotlight.The funny thing is, Ycee never stopped making music. He stopped being part of the conversation.So when he announced Out of Sight – Out of Mind: Volume 1, I couldn't help but smile because the title perfectly captures his journey over the last few years. He may have been out of sight, but he definitely wasn't out of his mind.

En République démocratique du Congo, direction Kinshasa, dans la commune de Kasavubu. C'est là que se trouve un bar emblématique, ouvert au lendemain de l'indépendance. Une adresse chargée d'histoire, c'est l'un des bars les plus anciens de Kinshasa où se sont produits les plus grands noms de la rumba congolaise et où militants politiques et intellectuels avaient leurs habitudes. De notre correspondante à Kinshasa, Sur la scène du Kimpwanza Bar, l'orchestre de Werrason est en pleine répétition. Les portes du Kimpawanza bar ont ouvert dans les années 1950. À cette époque, les plus grands orchestres de rumba congolaise s'y produisent. Werrason est fier de s'inscrire dans cet héritage. « C'est un endroit historique où nos anciens ont commencé avant nous. Ils ont commencé à répéter là-bas. Les Zaïko Nyoka Longo, Viva La Musica aussi de Papa Wemba. Notre musique, là, qu'on fait, il y a des références. » Sur les murs du Kimpwanza Bar, de grands rideaux noirs et argentés créent une ambiance feutrée propice aux discussions politiques. Le bar était aussi un lieu de rendez-vous des intellectuels de l'époque. Explications de Christian Moleka, politologue. « Les bars à Kinshasa ont été l'ancêtre du café politique où les élites se rencontraient autour des mouvements culturels, puisque les partis politiques n'étaient pas autorisés avant 1955. Et donc, ce sont les mouvements culturels qui se réunissaient, où on lit à la fois mondanité, convivialité et jeu politique. » À lire aussiRDC: les autorités mettent un terme aux «folles nuits» de Kinshasa Les militants de l'Abako Kimpwanza bar Parmi les figures intellectuelles qui s'y retrouvaient, les militants de l'Abako, l'Alliance des Bakongo. D'ailleurs, juste en face du bar, trône la statue de l'ancien président Kasa-Vubu. « Il est habillé en uniforme de commandant suprême des armées et il a justement baptisé Kimpwanza. Ce bar, au nom de Kimpwanza, en kikongo signifie "l'indépendance".» Pierre Anatole Matusila avait 13 ans en 1960. Il est depuis devenu le président de l'Abako, un mouvement culturel qui s'est mué en parti politique. « Après les événements du 4 janvier 1959, quand notre parti était dissous et ses dirigeants arrêtés, les manifestations, les revendications contre l'ordre colonial se sont fait sentir plus au Bas-Congo. Donc, il y avait un grand mouvement pour contraindre la colonisation belge à fixer la date de l'indépendance. Donc, dans ces mouvements, en tout cas, les Bakongo avaient porté le flambeau de ces combats. » L'indépendance du pays est fixée au 30 juin 1960. Grand Kallé compose la célèbre chanson « Indépendance Cha Cha ». Et la légende dit qu'elle est jouée pour la première fois à Kinshasa au Kimpwanza Bar.

Wande Coal is back with his fourth studio album, King Coal, and one thing is clear, this is the strongest body of work we've heard from him in years.When Wande announced he was releasing another album, I was genuinely excited. Not just because it's Wande Coal, but because of how rare his album releases have been throughout his career. After Mushin 2 Mo'Hits, fans waited about six years for Wanted, then nearly eight more years before his third studio album. So hearing that King Coal would arrive just three years later was both surprising and exciting.But did the music live up to the anticipation?Album: King CoalArtist: Wande CoalRelease Date: June 26, 2026Tracks: 15Featured ArtistsWizkidTiwa SavageBNXNRugerQing MadiProjexxLazDeraFido Production CreditsShabba, Timmy, Dunnie, Triangle Park, Choke Boi, Krazytunez, SakPase, and P.

Description The Future of Tech is Here. Subscribe to our Newsletter:https://theultimatepartner.com/ebook-subscribe/ Check Out UPX:https://theultimatepartner.com/experience/ In this presentation from Ultimate Partner Live, industry analyst Jay McBain breaks down the monumental macroeconomic shifts rewriting the tech sector in 2026. https://youtu.be/r0qTDyw97Gs As the industry rapidly approaches a $6.07 trillion valuation, driven by massive AI infrastructure investments from Sam Altman and the “Magnificent Seven,” traditional sales and channel models are fundamentally collapsing. McBain reveals how buyer demographics have transformed to an integration-first millennial base, why marketplace ecosystems now command over half of all partner-funded deals, and how a tiny elite of just 1,000 tech service providers control two-thirds of global tech revenue. Learn the exact mechanics behind how Microsoft out-partnered AWS to win 26 straight quarters of dominant growth and how your business can deploy an algorithmic early warning system to capture massive wallet share before competitors even step into the boardroom. Key Takeaways Over half of the Fortune 500 companies vanish every 20 years because their leadership fails to anticipate macroeconomic technological cycles. The true opportunity in the $6.5 trillion AI boom lies not in single vendor products, but in the hardware, software, services, and telecom ecosystem surrounding them. Indirect tech sales are undergoing a structural shift toward direct cloud hyperscaler models driven heavily by Nvidia's core infrastructure client base. Modern business deals are won or lost months before the point of sale based on the average of 6.3 partners surrounding a customer’s environment. Over 51% of tech buyers are now millennials who prioritize software integration capabilities and digital marketplaces over traditional human sales interactions. Tech service economics are pivoting aggressively away from upfront margins toward point-based multi-partner funding across subscription cycles. If you're ready to lead through change, elevate your business, and achieve extraordinary outcomes through the power of partnership—this is your community. At Ultimate Partner® we want leaders like you to join us in the Ultimate Partner Experience – where transformation begins.

[00:00:13] Vince Menzione: We just came back from Ultimate Partner live in Bellevue, Washington, where we hosted incredible leaders for two amazing days. Come join us for this next session where we explore the tectonic shifts we’ve all been seeing. With that, I am incredibly blessed to invite a friend of mine to the stage. I have a quick little side note, like I found an old LinkedIn post from this gentleman from like many years ago, like 20 years ago. [00:00:39] Vince Menzione: And I wasn’t really that nice to you on that LinkedIn post. Like, oh, like this is before Jay became the Jay, that we all know Jay to be j. But he was in the space and I was at Microsoft doing something and he reached out about something. It was kind of rude, Jay. I was like, oh my gosh. I can’t believe. But Jay has been a great friend. [00:00:54] Vince Menzione: When we started the podcast back up, uh, during COVID we started doing podcasts together. When we moved to the studio, Jay was the first person in the studio. He’s always got a spot, uh, at our events. He’s s Spot Art, and, and he’s a great friend and supporter of Ultimate Partner Jay McBain. For those of you who don’t know him, Jay, welcome. [00:01:13] Vince Menzione: Thank you, sir. [00:01:22] Jay McBain: 31 days ago, we landed Artemis two. The furthest humans have ever been away from the planet Earth 57 years ago. We landed on the moon in the 56 years. Between those two moments, the tech industry has been the fastest growing industry in the world. Every single year we moved from the space race to the technology race, and we’re just getting started. [00:01:46] Jay McBain: If you’re old enough, you’ll recognize the mainframe and mini era for 20 years. You’ll recognize a young disheveled Bill Gates showing up in Boca Raton, Florida for, uh, August the 12th, 1981 launch, where Bill thought that every one of us would’ve a PC in our home, and IBM thought they were gonna sell 10,000 of them to hobbyists. [00:02:12] Jay McBain: 1999, a small startup from an executive who just left Oracle in San Francisco named Mark Benioff. A couple of years later, Jeff Bezos went into a boardroom and said, listen, we’ve spent a lot of money building infrastructure to our busiest day, Christmas, black Friday. You’re telling me this stuff sits idle 10 or 20% for the rest of the year. [00:02:35] Jay McBain: Why don’t we rent that out to others? Got laughed outta that boardroom and then got made of fun of on magazine covers. Maybe you should just tend the store, let the adults talk about technology. In March of 2023, our neighbors, our friends, our family saw DeepFakes. They saw poetry, they saw music, and they came to us as tech people and said, did we just light up Skynet? [00:03:03] Jay McBain: Now every one of these 20 year eras, this is the Taylor Swift version of our industry. Every single one of these eras triggers the fastest growing product in history. Today it’s actually Chacha bt first to a billion users. It triggers a new, richest person in the world, bill Gates, to Jeff Bezos. Now, Elon Musk is the first to sign a trillion dollar pay package, and it’s not for car. [00:03:27] Jay McBain: It’s not for cars. It also triggers a most valuable company in the world change. And today that’s nvidia. These are monumental changes in our industry and they’re monumental changes in partnering every single time. And it also links to our customers. If you take a 20 year view of business, one era, and, and think about the AI era, you know, at the start of it here, if you’re to grab the Fortune 500 magazine from 20 years ago and start to flip through it, 53% of the companies in there no longer exist. [00:04:06] Jay McBain: Every 20 year cycle, we lose over half of the biggest companies in the world. These are the companies that have very deep pockets to buy their way outta problems. If you’re not in the Fortune 571% of tech companies don’t make it 10 years. These are the changes that cost industries. There are changes that cost really big companies and the decisions we make, the trends we’re in right now, in 2026 will be written about in the future. [00:04:39] Jay McBain: This new era, a lot of big numbers being thrown around. Vince’s best friend talk about a six and a half trillion dollar AI opportunity, but it’s not Microsoft’s tam. Microsoft is chasing about a trillion dollars of this. And the ecosystem, the hardware, the software, the services, the telecom is gonna make up the rest. [00:05:04] Jay McBain: It is an ecosystem. Every time these big numbers are thrown, the word ecosystem is always thrown around it. Not to be outdone, Sam Altman’s talking about a $7 trillion build out. The world economy this year, the world GDP will be 126. These are material numbers to world GDP, but even better, they’re both larger than our entire industry is today. [00:05:27] Jay McBain: So what took 56 years of the fastest growing industry this year will be $6.07 trillion. Big numbers, but it’s easier to think about it in terms of a dollar that our customers spend in that dollar. They’re gonna spend 25 cents on hardware. They’re gonna spend 25 cents on software. So for anyone that read the memo 15 years ago, that software’s gonna eat the world, there’s still a dollar a hardware to run every dollar of that software. [00:05:57] Jay McBain: And whether you’re thinking humanoid robots or whichever future you’re envisioning, there’s going to be a dollar of hardware to run every dollar of software for the next 20 years. There’s over 25 cents now in IT services, and in many cases, these services are growing faster than the product categories and just under 25 cents in telecom, that’s how it breaks out today. [00:06:19] Jay McBain: And this industry, which took 56 years to get to this point, is gonna double in size in the next three to five years. We already have two and a half trillion of that seven raised and being spent. Part of the reason Nvidia is the most valuable company in the world. Now our industry, uh, you talk about ultimate partnerships. [00:06:40] Jay McBain: Our industry traditionally, and world trade by the way, is 75% indirect. The dealerships, the agencies, the brokers, the resellers, the retailers, the franchisees, the gas stations, the grocery stores, the pharmacies, all 27 industries sell indirect. You gotta think back the last time you bought something direct. [00:07:01] Jay McBain: Well, I bought a Dell from that dude in the nineties. Cool. Well, Dell Technologies is now 60% indirect. Well, I bought insurance. Direct is 15 minutes. Could save me 15%. Well, Geico last year sold more insurance through agencies and brokers than they did direct. This is the world now. We used to be 75% indirect four years ago. [00:07:26] Jay McBain: Then it went to 73.2, then it went to 70.1 and it then it went to 66.7. By the way, marketplace is in these numbers indirect. It’s not marketplace causing this change. It’s one company, Nvidia. Nvidia has seven customers. The magnificent seven, uh, half of them are in the room right now that every morning we wake up to a hundred billion dollars press release about this $7 trillion buildout. [00:07:56] Jay McBain: What’s interesting is indirect sales in our industry is growing by revenue. It increases every year, just not at the pace that this AI build out is happening direct with seven companies. But the reason we’re all here, and I think the core reason that Vince is building this community is this, you know, Microsoft forever has measured and been very vocal. [00:08:21] Jay McBain: About 96% of their deals have partners in them. Kind of who cares, who collects the money. We care about the moments, the 28 moments before the customer makes a purchase. We care about every 30 days forever, because two thirds of our industry, over $4 trillion now is subscription consumption based. Winning a customer today is only winning the first 30 days. [00:08:46] Jay McBain: We care about this cycle. We care about who surrounds our customer. So six years ago, I stood on a big stage and said, you know, we went through a decade of sales. You know, in 1999, you thought you were born to be a salesperson. You’re managing your territory with your gut. Well, a few years later, you were introduced to the science of selling. [00:09:07] Jay McBain: You know, 10 years later you thought as a marketer, you sit around a cocktail party joking with your friends, 50% of my marketing dollars are wasted. I just don’t know which 50%. Really funny. In 2009 until every 58-year-old CMO got replaced by a 38-year-old growth hacker. Coming in with Marketo and Eloqua and Pardot and HubSpot, and 15,505 as of yesterday, MarTech and iTech tools, ninjas in marketing, they wouldn’t let a nickel go through without measuring. [00:09:43] Jay McBain: Now we understand 96% of deals and partners that surround it. No deal is gonna be won or lost in this era without partnering effectively. So we had to have this decade of the ecosystem. One of the ways we’re tracking is by outsiders. You know, Salesforce every year publishes the state of sales and they’ve got, you know, the number one CRM in the world. [00:10:05] Jay McBain: So they get to go talk to all the CROs, all the salespeople in the world. And as of this year, a couple months ago, 94% of every salesperson in every industry in the world uses partners every single day. You wanna see what this number was six years ago. Also, 89% of salespeople around the world don’t think they’re going to club this year without partners. [00:10:29] Jay McBain: So this is a big moment for us, halfway through the decade ecosystem, but we’re only halfway through. We’re starting to understand now at a more granular level. What partnering means. It’s not theory, it’s not flywheels. It’s not really cute. McKinsey slides that we keep showing to our board saying how important partnering is. [00:10:51] Jay McBain: We’re trying to get to the very specific level of the 6.3 partners on average that surround the deal and what they’re doing. How their business model works, and that’s average if I’m working on a public sector deal. I was at a Red Hat conference yesterday talking sovereignty. If I’m in an enterprise or a large public sector deal, it’s north of 10 partners in the deal. [00:11:15] Jay McBain: So we’re starting to understand what used to be this, this, you know, you’ve been the fastest growing industry for 56 straight years. Every single professional services person in every industry has come in to join the fund. Over 90% of accountants are tech services firms. Over 90% of marketing agencies are tech services agencies. [00:11:36] Jay McBain: All of this 250,000 software companies, a million emerging comp tech companies, the half a million VAR that have been in that traditional channel. The managed service providers, all of these 20 different partner types, millions of companies, tens of millions of people competing for 6.3 spots. Around the customer. [00:11:58] Jay McBain: That’s it. Luckily, there’s 141 million global customers to compete for. There’s, there’s some open slots that you can go find, and that’s the point. Our industry never had our own Fortune 500. We always talk to, you know, these partners and GSIs are doing this and SI are doing that. And we never really had a view of capability and capacity or what our own TAM was inside of that partnering. [00:12:25] Jay McBain: And so we set out and we would’ve loved, you know, chat GPT or Gemini or Claude or any of those tools to do this. But there’s one problem in partnering with AI is that it doesn’t know one partner from the next. There’s a big digital sameness problem in our industry that every single partner, whether it’s Larry in the White van or Accenture, with 786,000 employees all say they do all things to all people all the time. [00:12:53] Jay McBain: 98% of them, 99% of them are private companies that don’t share their p and l. You can’t go into Microsoft’s LinkedIn system and find out how many employees, ’cause it’s a block system, it AI can’t see into it. So it just sees, and it’s a great pattern matching. Google, SEO can’t figure out who’s who, nor today can the large language models. [00:13:14] Jay McBain: ’cause all the things they’re trying to match, the transformers are trying to match. It all looks the same. Every tweet, every ebook, every website, every digital history looks the same. So this took us thousands of people hours across two years to do, to dig into every p and l to dig into every dollar of what they’re doing. [00:13:33] Jay McBain: But what was interesting is only a thousand partners in our industry do two thirds of all tech services. When you get into enterprise, it goes up to 80 to 90%. The partners in the middle, in Blue do more tech services. The 30 of them than the 970 partners in white on the outside, the 970 partners in White do more tech services than the next million combined. [00:14:03] Jay McBain: This is our industry in a nutshell. Every time we talk to a a vendor, every time we talk to a partner, every time we talk to a distributor, we’re now talking names, faces, and places. You you wanna talk sovereignty. Yesterday in Atlanta, 90% of sovereign conversations in public sector in the globe is handled by these companies here. [00:14:26] Jay McBain: Forget about how much you do with these partners today. You wanna chase the next column, which is the wallet share. And I was a channel chief for 17 years. I get the weekly report and I see a million dollar partner, another million dollar partner, sorted top to bottom. You don’t know which partners which, which of those million dollar partners is doing 1.2 million in your category. [00:14:46] Jay McBain: They deserve a baseball cap and a front row seat at your event as an MVP. The next partner right next to them is doing 10 million in your category. They’re only doing a million with you. ’cause customers are pulling them into it. Nine times outta 10. They’re leading with your competitor. So I don’t want that list anymore. [00:15:03] Jay McBain: I want the new list, which is showing me those $9 million opportunities. And I as a board member, as A CEO, as a CFO, as a CRO, I wanna see this list. And then I want to talk people, processes, programs, technology. What are we gonna do to go get our fair share of that 9 million? Where’s our lowest hanging fruit? [00:15:24] Jay McBain: How do we double our pipeline? How do we double the size of our company in three years? It’s all right here. Let’s have very specific conversations and move away from flywheels and move around from force multipliers and and things like that in partnering. Let’s figure out how this partner community is surrounded. [00:15:45] Jay McBain: What do 10 million people who have to be smart in front of their customers every single day, what do they read? Where do they go and who do they follow? It’s the law of a few. This is the old Malcolm Gladwell of tipping point 10 million people in the broader channel. A hundred percent of our TAM comes down to only a thousand watering holes. [00:16:08] Jay McBain: 12% of that entire audience. Doesn’t sound like a lot, but it’s over A million. People love podcasts. Number one way they learn the Joe Rogan effect. In our industry, there’s 121 podcasts. These are all public lists. You can go get on my LinkedIn newsletter on canals, oia. But there’s 121 podcasts that drive him forward. [00:16:28] Jay McBain: Really high up on that list, actually number one on the list is ultimate partner, Vince. That’s how I met. ’cause I asked people, 10 million people, you love this. You walk your dog, you drive to work, you listen to podcasts. I’m not the biggest podcast fan. It’s not number one on my list, but it’s number one on theirs. [00:16:44] Jay McBain: They say, you know, you gotta meet this guy, Vince. It’s unbelievable how great these podcasts are. They’re ultimate. [00:16:54] Jay McBain: Then I talked to Vince and said, but Vince, you know, 35% of your community, the 10 million people love to come to events like this one. The hallway conversations, the hotel lobby bar last night. This is what we love to do, especially post pandemic. It’s the number one way we learn. We learn from our peers, we learn from those around us, and, and the learn from the conversations we have here. [00:17:17] Jay McBain: We always remember these moments, you know, years and years later. There’s 352 choices. I’m going to five of them this week in five different cities. It’s a lot of coverage, but again, it’s a tighter li list of how people work. The magazine lists 106 of them associations like Conter. Now the GTIA peer groups, there’s 15 different spheres of influence, but only a thousand places. [00:17:43] Jay McBain: I could walk you through billionaire, after billionaire, after billionaire in this industry and show you how they did this. How did Arne Bellini at ConnectWise? How did Austin McCord at Datto, how did Nerdio become a unicorn? How did threat locker and huntress move away from 6,500 cyber companies and become unicorns over and over and over again? [00:18:05] Jay McBain: It’s only one slide. Unicorns and billionaires are made here, and a lot of people don’t get it. So walking away from Bellevue, a thousand partners, top down, a thousand watering holes, bottoms up. You’ve covered a hundred percent of your tam. You do it better than 10% of your competitor, 10% better than your competitors. [00:18:27] Jay McBain: You win. You carry that on your resume into the next company. You get a bigger job at a bigger pay scale. Let’s just walk through some examples. Cyber 91.7% of it goes through the channel. Huge channel audience. You know, if you’re in MarTech, it’s only 10%, but this one happens to be all channel, but that’s not the story. [00:18:48] Jay McBain: For every dollar that the 6,500 cyber companies are trying to close, there’s $2 in services. Plot twist, the products are grown at 11, the services are grown at 12.6. Your partners are growing faster than you are, and they will continue to for the next, at least five years, probably 10. So when I’m here, five years from now, you’ll hear in me talk about a three to one split in cyber and then a four to one split in cyber. [00:19:18] Jay McBain: Now, when we’re in Miami a couple days ago is CrowdStrike, they’re talking about a $7 and 5 cent multiplier, chasing that two to one up higher. You look at managed services. Here’s a fun story. Managed services. 82% of customers who are man, uh, outsourcing more this year than last year. 650 billion in size. [00:19:38] Jay McBain: This is bigger than the entire SaaS industry. Salesforce, ServiceNow, Workday, Marketo, NetSuite, HubSpot, 250,000. Others. This is bigger. It’s also bigger than all the Hyperscalers combined, not just AWS, Microsoft and Google, but Alibaba and Oracle and everybody down the list. This is a massive market also growing at double digits. [00:19:59] Jay McBain: So these are some big things and obviously we’re watching, you know, week in and week out, quarter in, quarter out, the Battle of Software and Battle of the Hyperscalers and things like that, and who’s growing at what pace and, and how partnering is connecting to all of this. You know, we watched a moment really early in the pandemic where Microsoft started growing faster than AWS and they haven’t stopped since 26 straight quarters. [00:20:27] Jay McBain: And you ask customers and say, you know, does Microsoft have a better product? And in most cases they say no. You know, AWS had a five year head start. Well, did they have a better price? Well, no, actually most cases Microsoft’s more expensive. Well, did did they have better promotion? Was their Super Bowl ad better? [00:20:44] Jay McBain: No, they’re both kind of crap. So you kind of ask the questions of what’s the only difference that could create growth above the leader in the market? Well, it’s place. More of the 6.3 partners are walking into those keyboard room meetings and drawing clouds up on the wall and labeling the Microsoft than they are AWS. [00:21:03] Jay McBain: Very simple. It’s never been about product. The best product in our industry has never won. And now the best way forward is that partnering moment, and this is the moment. So to go back to that story about the 53% of companies who are gonna fail, one of us is gonna be asked to write the book. And it could be the book like Kodak, they invented the product that ended up killing them. [00:21:26] Jay McBain: And it’s a woe is me story, but chapter one is always you blame the CEO. How could they not see those trends happening in 2026? How could they, you know, were they blind? Were they stuck in their own, you know, innovation chamber? Innovator’s dilemma, were they stuck in their own boardrooms? Why couldn’t they see? [00:21:46] Jay McBain: Well, chapter two, you, you blame the board. They have fiduciary responsibility, outsider view, and how could they not see it? But really, this is the future right here. If you take this slide and apply it 10 or 20 years from now to every failure and every success, these are the chapters of the book. Your buyer is now a millennial. [00:22:05] Jay McBain: As of last year, the 51% of our market is bought by people born after 1982. Different psychology, different behavior, different journey, different criteria, their integration. First buyers. The buy a product, 80% as good as the next one. If it works better in their environment. 94% of people won’t buy a car unless it has CarPlay or Android Auto. [00:22:26] Jay McBain: New Buyer. You have to be more integrated than your competitors. That’s a partnering story. The 6.3 partners. If you heard cyber, you need some great channel partnerships, but you need the other 5.3 partners as well, the consultants, the advisors, the designers, the architects, the implementers, the integrators, the manner service, all of the other partners. [00:22:44] Jay McBain: You need to know more of them than your competitors do, and have them label clouds with your name in them. You need better alliances. Even if you compete, you only compete in the morning. You’re best friends by the afternoon. You have to be tight with the hyperscalers, tight, with the big SaaS platforms, tight with cyber, tight with distribution, there are layers, seven layers to every deal. [00:23:04] Jay McBain: You gotta be tight in and have better alliances than your competitors. And then it all comes to the 28 moments, which I’m gonna end on, but the go to market of all of this, the co-selling, co-marketing, co-innovation, co-development, co keeping. This is it. Your product has to be good enough that somebody’s gonna renew it. [00:23:21] Jay McBain: Your Super Bowl has to be, you know, ad has to be good enough that people don’t, you know, shame you on social media. Your pricing has to be somewhere in a country mile of the bell curve of what the customer wants to pay. But successor failure is just here and platforms are synonymous with partnering. [00:23:40] Jay McBain: It’s our role now in the decade of the ecosystem to drive our companies forward. Marketplace. It’s probably the most predict, you know, great prediction we ever made. You know, growing at 82% compounded, it’s hard to predict ’cause it doubles almost every year. We were almost exact to the decimal point. Five years later now till 2030, we’re watching a second story, which is more interesting. [00:24:02] Jay McBain: If 96% of all deals have partners inside of them and there’s private offers and multi-partner offers and distributor sellers record all these funding mechanisms or services as a product. As of last week, over 50% of all deals in marketplaces now have partner funding. It means that while money changes hands differently, the respect and the recognition of what partners do is in the deal. [00:24:26] Jay McBain: We think that’s going to 59, but at some point, that’s gonna have to hit 96. ’cause to run the best programs, whether it’s an indirect sale, whether it’s a direct sale, whether it’s a marketplace deal, it doesn’t matter how money changes hands. What matters is we recognize the 6.3 partners. They’re not only making the deal happen bigger and faster, but renewing and enriching that every 30 days forever. [00:24:48] Jay McBain: When we watch, you know, billion dollar clubs and when we read all the press releases and all the hubbub about how fast this is growing and who, which companies are behind all this. When I’m quoted in some of these press releases, it’s because of this. You know, CrowdStrike, you know, brags are a billion dollars in a single year, but inside of that, they’re showing that 91% growth in marketplaces, which is pretty phenomenal for any company to almost double in size every single year. [00:25:17] Jay McBain: What’s more phenomenal is they’re growing the channel piece of it, 3548%. That green part of it is growing. Companies that understand platform and have people and processes and programs and technology to do it are winning. And they’re getting recognition and partners are starting to join the Billion Dollar Club who don’t sell a product, but are also winning at Extreme Scale. [00:25:44] Jay McBain: So talk about those partner 1000 and who are leaning in to win at this level. As well as everything changes, traditional billing moved into subscription models, moved into consumption models. Now we’re being tokenized to death multi it’s, it’s in this mode of micro consumption. There’s no chance there was little chance in subscription consumption that would be resold. [00:26:09] Jay McBain: You don’t buy Netflix from the cable guy in the white van. There’s zero chance when you’re buying tokens at a buck a piece that that’s going through any indirect sale. This continues to grow. Now the tectonic shifts is what happens when money changes hands differently. These old programs that we used to all write hundreds of different boxes, we checked every day on deal reg and trainings and all the other things are changing. [00:26:35] Jay McBain: To this, you’ll get these slides, by the way, in high res, inside of this now is the customer. For the first time ever, 45 years later, we have the customer in the middle of what we do, the 28 moments in green before they buy the seven layer stack and the partners inside it. The implementation. The integration, the managed services in a cycle that never ends, and two thirds of our industry. [00:26:55] Jay McBain: With the customer in the middle, we can now move money around to the different moments. It’s not all landing in front or backend margins or market development funds or new customer bonuses or spiffs. It’s landing where it needs to land. Over 400 companies now, pretty much led by Microsoft 400 companies are in a point system right now and 400 more. [00:27:18] Jay McBain: We’re working kind of behind the scenes to get that announced in the next 12 months. This is a total changeover in terms of how economics work and partners are yelling over half of us. I don’t care. Don’t call me a VAR anymore. Don’t call me an MSP. Don’t call me a regional system integrator. I do the consulting over half the time. [00:27:36] Jay McBain: I do the design, I do the implementations, I do the managed services, and 44% of us are vibe coding. On weekends. We’re not happy. Just on the services side. We wanna join the seven layer tech stack as well. These are partners growing faster than their vendors by understanding this cycle and where to show up and where the money is in ai. [00:27:56] Jay McBain: And the number one thing they’re asking for is not more leads, which they did for 45 years. The number one thing is now recognized for what I do. I’ve never just been a cash register. We’re completely now past this idea of a channel being a channel of distribution, and now a channel being this platform for the future. [00:28:16] Jay McBain: As we lay that on top of ai, the first couple of years of AI has really been consumer driven. The 95% failure rate that MIT reported last year is now 70%. That’s the failure to get from proof of concept to production. That 70 will be 50 by the summer we’re moving now in business, the maturity rates are going up at the end customer and in 88% of cases, that’s because of the channel. [00:28:43] Jay McBain: They’re working with partners. They’re not vibe coding themselves and working in little skunkwork groups. They’re working with partners to make it happen, and it now becomes the partner’s number one growth opportunity. I can grow at 11 or 12% in cyber every year. Compounded I can grow in 10% in managed services. [00:29:03] Jay McBain: You know, those are great double digit growth ’cause my customers are growing at 2.7% and I can go four x my customer, but I can go 10 x my customer if I have the right services built around ai. And this compounded growth rate and that big number in 2 20 32, 267 is what’s got those top 1000 partners obsessed. [00:29:25] Jay McBain: And your companies are leading with ai. Now you need to connect to those AI services. You need to get partners on this scale of growth. And they will be adding your name inside every cloud. They write on every whiteboard, but 82% of partners around the world, you know, we survey 25,000 of them aren’t ready, and they’re blaming vendors for not being ready, and they’re telling them exactly the workshops and the training that they need to get ready for this cycle. [00:29:53] Jay McBain: 82% of our entire partner, tens of millions of people, aren’t ready to grow at 35% and they need our help. Last thing I’ll say about AI is it’s the first time from client server to cloud, edge to cloud that it’s been segment driven. SMB alone has one, you know, six different segments, one to nine, 10 to 24, 25 to 49, et cetera. [00:30:18] Jay McBain: Mid-market into enterprise. No one that runs a restaurant is calling Jensen to buy a GPU to put next to the stove. No one’s calling Sam or Dario or anyone at Anthropic or OpenAI directly. They’re waiting. If you run a restaurant with all the people running around with tablets, you’ve invested in toast or square or clover or one of the platforms to run your business. [00:30:41] Jay McBain: A hundred different things. And you’re gonna wait for toast to work with a hyperscaler and build out the capabilities genetically. So when they see a spike in Uber Eats orders, they automatically place a food order and automatically change the staffing to deliver on it. That’s what the restaurant’s waiting for, and there’s no one calling and having a big a agent conversation. [00:31:03] Jay McBain: But even if you go into hundreds of people in medium sized business, every one of the vice presidents have their tech stack already built. I talked about the marketing person already, but the HR leader has one, and everybody’s got their seven layer stack. They’re not calling to buy a GPU and they’re not calling to, you know, bring in open AI directly or, or anthropic. [00:31:22] Jay McBain: They’re waiting for the platform they built to integrate together ag agenta capabilities. Everybody’s in wait mode up until enterprise and public, large public sector. So we are looking at this market and at 90% of that AI market is run by those thousand companies, and the rest of the millions of partners are helping in terms of how these businesses are gonna change at that level. [00:31:46] Jay McBain: Here’s where I end. You know, the 28 moments used to be a theory. It used to be a flywheel. How do we buy a car? [00:31:55] Vince Menzione: Well, we Google it, [00:31:57] Jay McBain: 81% of us now, 94% of us use large language models. We find out that there’s 365 brands of car. I’d have to test drive one every day of the year to get through them all. So we start narrowing these things down. [00:32:09] Jay McBain: We configure it. We put our rims on it, we color it. We download the invoice price. We download the backend rebates this month, whether I buy it in May or June, we find out what 5,000 people paid for our exact car within 50 miles of us. And then we don’t wanna go to the dealer because we know more than the salesperson, the manager ever will. [00:32:26] Jay McBain: We know what we’re gonna pay within, you know, dollars or cents. Just carvana the car. Hand me the keys. Let’s just forget the whole eight hour back and forth. I’ll get you a deal thing. I’m smarter than you in technology. Our customers are smarter than us, smarter than salespeople. That’s why 75% of millennials don’t wanna talk to a salesperson. [00:32:48] Jay McBain: They want to end digitally, and by the way, they’re not gonna send a fax after 28 digital moments. They’re gonna end on a digital marketplace. This is all demographics. It’s not hard to see where it’s going, but we’re getting into names, faces, places again. What if every dollar of your tam, the board, the CEO, runs around with their big multi-billion dollar number, they’re chasing? [00:33:09] Jay McBain: What if every single deal looks the exact same? This is a deal with AstraZeneca, A real deal, real customer spending millions of dollars. We know it starts in October, it ends in April. It’s a six month cycle. We see what they read, the MQ ls at the beginning. We see the sales demo moments. We see ISV, but we’ve never had the light blue boxes. [00:33:30] Jay McBain: What if we as a team could overlay the 6.3 partners in this deal? And when you find out a couple things. Here’s where I end. In December, five deals were one, three of them by NTT. The person at NTT probably coaches AstraZeneca’s, you know, kids’ soccer team. They probably have a cottage together at the lake. [00:33:50] Jay McBain: For the last 20 years, if the person at NTT worked at Deloitte, Deloitte would’ve run this deal. But Software One and Yash are both there, so we understand that when they were drawing clouds up on the wall in the boardroom in December, this deal was won and lost there. It was not won and lost at the point of sale. [00:34:09] Jay McBain: So what if you knew more about this and could see every dollar in your tam? You had an early warning system that this was happening. Two things jump out at this now that we’re in Bellevue. AWS was touched twice in this deal, directly in the marketing cycle and the sales cycle. AWS lost this deal. Here’s an example of Microsoft winning a deal with Microsoft never being touched. [00:34:34] Jay McBain: For some reason, NTT who won, who won AWS’s partner of the year a couple years ago led with Microsoft, so did Software one, Microsoft’s biggest reseller in Europe, and as did Yash, they all led with Microsoft and without Microsoft, knowing Microsoft took a multimillion dollar deal away from their competitors by winning in December. [00:34:53] Jay McBain: That’s one. Second. These partners didn’t just show up other than soccer and cottages. They didn’t show up in December. It went closed one in their CRM system. Back in the summer, August, September, we already knew AstraZeneca was in market, spending millions of dollars. We didn’t need them to read an ebook or go to an event to find that out. [00:35:17] Jay McBain: We knew it because it was closed one. They’re spending hundreds of thousands of dollars times five in December to know what to do at the end. This is an early warning system that’s better than any MQL, better than any SQL. And if you could give your company these level of view into their pipeline with an early warning system that I can work with those partners for months before they ever show up at the customer’s boardroom. [00:35:44] Jay McBain: This is it. Talk about 47% winners. This takes you from not only surviving the AI era to being a top five platform winner. Thank you very much. [00:36:01] Vince Menzione: Until next time, we’ll see you in person. Hopefully at our next event.

Send us Fan MailIn Episode 222, "I Release my Past & Take Responsibility: I Am Presence," Maya delivers a deeply personal and transformative transmission centered on the "5/5 portal." She reflects on her 40-year journey in health and spirituality, moving from a period of "3D amnesia" and struggle into a state of galactic sovereignty.Here is a summary of the key themes and declarations from the episode:1. The Descent into the AbyssMaya candidly discusses a 15-year period of spiritual "battering" and a 3-year "vertigo pull" into a deep abyss. She acknowledges that despite her decades of service, she often fell into the traps of the matrix:The "Cha-Cha" of Growth: Experiencing strides forward followed by painful reverses.The Illusion of Otherness: Making mistakes driven by expectations, judgment, and the need for control.Resistance: Realizing that her own resistance to these life lessons actually prolonged her suffering and fed the "monster" of fear and resentment.2. The Galactic Rescue & AwakeningThe turning point began in late 2025 and early 2026, coincided with astronomical events and the arrival of the Galactic Federation of Light.The Motherships: Maya describes a "merciful rescue mission" where celestial beings began repairing Earth's grid.Refinement by Fire: She recontextualizes her years of torture not as random attacks, but as a meticulous "surgical recalibration" by the Divine Creator to return her to a state of Oneness.3. Radical Responsibility & The "5/5 Portal"Maya uses this specific portal to declare her absolute sovereignty. She shifts from a victim of her circumstances to the conscious creator of her reality:Owning the Ignorance: She takes full responsibility for not recognizing her past challenges as sacred gifts.Dissolving the Chasm: By stopping the cycle of blame and shame, she ceases to "feed" the energy of separation.4. Ritual of Forgiveness and Release (The "Tatastu" Declarations)The episode concludes with a powerful series of decrees, using the Sanskrit word Tatastu (meaning "So be it"):Self-Forgiveness: Releasing the self for what could not have been known sooner.Global Forgiveness: Releasing and blessing everyone who played a "dark role" in her evolution, recognizing them as catalysts for her Light.Cutting Cords: Formally canceling soul contracts that have outlived their purpose.Gratitude to Allies: Honoring Archangel Michael, Lord Ashtar, the Arcturians, Sirians, and Andromedans for their massive galactic work in securing Earth's portals, grids, and much more.Core MessageThe episode serves as a public "Divine Covenant." Maya's message is that the time of "otherness" is over. By assuming full responsibility for her past and acknowledging the presence of Galactic Light, she has stepped onto the threshold of a new, free reality."I have awoken. I am in the threshold... I am taking back my full sovereignty Now."Support the showMay Peace Be Your Journey:Maya's approach transcends modern feminism by advocating for a holistic restoration of balance, moving beyond the fight for basic rights to reclaiming the innate power of the divine feminine, which includes procreation, forgiveness, nourishment, and cosmic creativity. She stresses the importance of kindness, inner stillness, and compassionate self-  tools for healing individuals and society. www.mayatiwari.comwww.facebook.com/mayatiwariahimsa.Buzzsprout.comMothermaya@gmail.comGet Maya's New Book: I Am  Shakti:https://www.collectiveinkbooks.com/o-books/our-books/I-am-shaktiAmazon.comBookshop.org

Interview date: May 3rd, 2026Episode Summary:In this episode of The Business of Dance Podcast, Gary Edwards shares his remarkable journey from a seven-year-old boy in London learning to dance so he could attend his mother's events, to becoming a world champion ballroom dancer, international judge, and now CEO and partner of Arthur Murray Dance Studios. He reflects on the unwavering conviction he had from a young age that dance would not just be his passion, but his profession, despite pushback from a world that did not yet see dance—especially for boys—as a serious career path. From his first paid job at 17 to years spent performing, judging, and teaching around the world, Gary's story is one of persistence, adaptability, and saying yes to opportunity.The conversation also dives into the business side of dance in a powerful way. Gary discusses how Arthur Murray has remained successful for more than a century by focusing on fun, connection, and community, while also explaining the urgent need to modernize through social media, updated systems, and broader visibility. He shares entertaining stories about teaching Michael Jackson a cha-cha to “Billie Jean,” spending time with Janet Jackson and other celebrities, and emphasizes that even the biggest stars simply want to be treated like human beings.

Merry Christmas Cha Cha Nation, welcome to another episode of the Cha Cha Album Review Series on the Cha Cha Music Review Podcast, my name is Hafeestonova (Your Musical Plug, Creator of the Energy Force, African Music Amplifier)In this episode, we step into the mind of a national treasure. When Sarz announced his debut album, anticipation was electric. On September 25, 2025, the call went out: Protect Sarz At All Cost. Not just the man—but the mirror. Sarz reminds us there’s a piece of him in all of us.Expectation met reality with a twist. I expected an earth-shaking reinvention; what I got was refined excellence. Across 12 tracks, the album doesn’t chase shock value—it delivers cohesion. Immaculate composition, confident arrangements, lush production, and melodies that linger. Not revolutionary, but undeniably complete.Features: Wizkid, Asake, Gunna, Byron Messia, Joeboy, Lojay, Libianca, Ndlovu Youth Choir, ODUMODUBLVCK, Qing Madi, Shallipopi, Skillibeng, Teni, Theodora, Victony, WurlD, Zeina—every track produced by Sarz.

After what felt like a long pause from the music scene, the self-proclaimed Mayor of Lagos returned to remind everyone that his tenure is far from over. On this episode of the Cha Cha Album Review Series, I break down Mayorkun’s third studio album, Still The Mayor — and trust me, Mayorkun still sabi this music thing.Released on June 13, Still The Mayor is a 12-track project with a 31-minute runtime, making it a smooth and easy listen from start to finish. The album features an impressive lineup of artists including Fireboy DML, Davido, Rotimi, King Promise, Olivetheboy, Dremo, The Flowolf, and Michii. Production credits span some heavy hitters such as Speroach Beatz, Agbada Prince, Igor Mabano, and others who helped shape the album’s sound.There’s no doubt that Mayorkun is a certified hitmaker, and this project reinforces that claim. After many people had written him off, Still The Mayor feels like a statement album — one that says, “I’m still here, and my spot can’t be taken.”Tune in to hear the full breakdown, favorite moments, and why this album proves that the Mayor’s reign isn’t over yet

In this episode we answer emails from Adam, Cha Cha, and TJ.  We discuss how cash and short-term bonds affect safe withdrawal rates, why the Golden Butterfly's allocation is a preference not a rule, and how to build a growth-first plan when you're starting late.  And we wish Happy Birthday to Mick the Mugga Mugga.And THEN we our go through our weekly portfolio reviews of the eight sample portfolios you can find at Portfolios | Risk Parity Radio.Additional Links:Father McKenna Center Donation Page:  Donate - Father McKenna CenterMany Happy Returns Podcast Featuring Tyler:  How to Pick Your Perfect Portfolio, with Tyler from Portfolio ChartsCatching Up To FI Podcast:  Financial Independence - Catching up to FIExcess Returns Podcast:  Excess Returns Podcast | Excess Returns Podcasts - Helping Make You a Better InvestorSwedroe Factor Investing Book:  Book Review: Your Complete Guide to Factor-Based Investing | CFA Institute Enterprising InvestorBreathless AI-Bot Summary:Worried your portfolio is heavy on cash but light on purpose? We unpack the real trade-offs behind short-term bonds, money markets, and the Golden Butterfly's famous “comfort cushion,” then show how a few precise tweaks can lift safe withdrawal rates without blowing up your sleep. Listener questions drive the heart of the episode: how much cash is too much, whether VTIP truly hedges better than VGSH, and why cash management rarely changes outcomes even though it feels reassuring.From there we shift to a late-starter's dilemma: chasing 8–10% average returns over a decade without gambling. We get practical about the only two ways to beat the market, why stock-picking “wins” often just mirror factor exposure, and how to use a simple, research-backed pairing—large-cap growth with small-cap value—to seek higher expected returns. We also cover when international tilts help, how currency drives comparisons more than people think, and where bonds, gold, and REITs fit as you move closer to financial independence.Our take is direct and usable: minimize inert cash, diversify for shallower drawdowns, and reserve complexity for places that pay. Build growth while the gap to FI is wide, then add ballast on purpose as you near the goal. If you want a sturdier plan and a quieter mind, this conversation clears the noise and spotlights the levers that matter.Enjoy the show? Follow, rate, and share it with a friend.

Kiera and Trish apply their dentistry expertise for another practice autopsy! This episode looks at a legacy practice that was experiencing stagnation in production because of numerous challenges. Kiera and Trish walk through what exactly was changed to allow this practice to hit its production goals for the first time in over a year. Episode resources: Subscribe to The Dental A-Team podcast Schedule a Practice Assessment Leave us a review Transcript: The Dental A Team (00:00) Hello, Dental A Team listeners, this is Kiera and today is such a fun day. I have one of our incredible consultants, Trish, on the podcast with me. Her nickname in Dental A Team is, go ahead Trish, say it. And explain what to da means Trish, because it's my favorite nickname of any, like it's one of the best we've come up with.   DAT Trish Ackerman (00:11) Ta-da!   Well, it definitely got sticky, that's for sure. so TADA stands for Trish Ackerman Dental A Team Ambassador, because I love referring anybody I can to us. That's either a client or somebody to come and work with us. I love this company and I want everybody that I love to come and work here too. I want clients to join, so yeah, I'll take it.   The Dental A Team (00:27) you   Trish, like it is one of the like biggest compliments that you you have referred people to our company. You have brought tons of people to us. Like you are a walking little dental A team advertisement. And to me as a boss, as an owner of a company, like that is music to my ears. But like, didn't you just take that name on for another name in your life? Like this is this is sticking. So tell.   DAT Trish Ackerman (01:02) I did, I did. It got   that sticky. So I'm going to be a grandma very soon, which just sounds awfully strange to say out loud. But we had my original grandma name all picked out, which was going to be Cha Cha. But when I heard Ta Da, I'm like, that, that is really classic. That's going to stay. And my daughter and family, they're like,   The Dental A Team (01:26) Yeah   DAT Trish Ackerman (01:29) okay, we might have to grow into that a little bit. I'm like, well, get ready to grow anyway, because it's staying.   The Dental A Team (01:34) Well, our marketing team has already been working on some pretty fancy swag for you Trish, because TADA, if you don't know Trish yet, you're gonna get to know her. If you haven't heard her as much, Trish is one of the most funny, like she, I feel like you're just confetti in a human form. Like you literally just like burst confetti everywhere you go. You make people laugh. Like you have made me almost spit water of laughing so hard on calls together. You're just a good time. And so,   If you haven't gotten to work with Trish or you haven't got to meet her yet, welcome. She's one of my absolute faves. So excited that you're on our team and that you are the to da of the company. ⁓ but today I wanted Trish to come on because I love a good office autopsy and Trish has been consulting some clients, rocking them out, having some really incredible massive wins. And so we thought, let's like, let's go behind the scenes. Let's see what that to da consultant over there has been doing in her spare time, consulting some awesome offices.   And with that said, whenever we do an office autopsy, what we do these for is to help you see yourself in other practices fabric. I think a lot of times people think dentistry is lonely and isolated and it does not need to be. So what we're gonna do today, we do mashup practices. So if you think this is you, there might be parts of you, it might be parts of another practice. We try to do that to keep practice confidentiality. But really I also hope when you are a practice that's being highlighted in an office autopsy, just know that you get highlighted because...   We're freaking proud of you as the owner too. These things can't get done without owners executing and implementing. And while yes, we as consultants are really good at what we do, we truly are magicians. We're able to grow into ways that you couldn't even imagine, but we can't do that if you don't execute. So Trish, take it away. Let's kind of talk this office. Where were they when they like joined Dental A Team? Then I always love to say like, where are they now? Like how long did it take us? And then we'll get into the how of how did you do it? What were some of the things you implemented? So take it away Trish.   Where was this practice when they joined us and now where are they at ⁓ a couple of few short months later?   DAT Trish Ackerman (03:30) When this practice came to us, this was a really, really special situation because this is a legacy practice. And it was originally owned by grandpa and then the current owner's father. So this is now the third generation of a dental practice. And when this practice came on with us, they were doing many, many, things right.   but there was no traction taking place and they were very stuck. They were very stagnant and the current owner, this is a really big deal. know, this was again, because of the legacy that it's holding and he was struggling. He was struggling financially. He really was. There wasn't a lot of, there wasn't a lot of knowledge. He didn't have a lot of knowledge around like the current overhead, what it should be.   And things were feeling, he was feeling a pretty big pinch. And I had to give him so much credit. I think it takes a lot of courage to reach out to get the help. you know, it's like, practices don't typically reach out to us because everything is going so great. It's usually when they're starting to feel something's not right, something's uncomfortable. And he did just that. And they had an extremely congested schedule.   The Dental A Team (04:46) Mm-hmm.   DAT Trish Ackerman (04:57) They have a large patient base, as you can imagine, because many are still, you know, that were patients of his father. So what was happening is because of the congestion, they weren't able to see new patients right away. was like a six week wait for that. There were several patients in the hygiene that were still active that weren't able to get in. And then again, there was just kind of like a bunch of stuff on the schedule, just stuff. So they were working really hard.   And what I did is I really walked through the specifics of his patient base to show him you actually have way more patients than you do available hours, which is why you're stuck here. And how do we do this? Well, we were also a little restricted on that because this is a five op practice. So we had an op for each doctor, an overflow, and then the two hygienists.   But what we did is we got creative because we knew we had to add hygiene. That was a must. And we also had to allow more openings much sooner for the new patients because what was happening when I pointed out that he was basically giving his new patients away to his competitors because they were waiting so long that really got his attention. we ended up, the first thing that we did is added a hygienist.   The Dental A Team (05:57) Mm-hmm.   Absolutely.   DAT Trish Ackerman (06:20) which now brought those two doctors down to one op each. And that really scared them because we were handcuffed. It was like we were handcuffed in every direction, but we got very creative and we designed very strategic doctor schedule blocks so that they know when there's gonna be production.   and they know when they can make the time for like the sand and the water appointments, post-ops and things like that. But the staggering of the schedules made a huge difference. The practice was also only open Monday through Thursday. So we changed it to Monday through Friday. So on Mondays and Fridays, those doctors do have their two ops again. So that has worked well. When we implemented that design, we also implemented some patient filtering.   so that they could get in the new patients, not emergencies, but they could get in the new patients with significant needs right away and also not take the risk of giving those away to a competitor. If they have significant dental needs, get them in right now. And we took away the focus of like, they have the protocol, a lot of doctors like for those new patients to go through hygiene first and that's a great structure. It's a great structure for patients without   The Dental A Team (07:21) Mm-hmm.   Thank   DAT Trish Ackerman (07:41) significant dental needs. So that all of a sudden opened up the door to where both of the doctors were getting very comprehensive new patients on their schedule right away that needed significant amount of dental work. Then they could eventually get into the hygiene department. With that, when we designed that, within six weeks, this practice had hit their production goal.   The Dental A Team (07:43) Right.   DAT Trish Ackerman (08:10) for the first time in over a year. The team was starting to get very numb to goals. They weren't even looking at the numbers anymore. The numbers weren't mattering to them. And then all of a sudden there was this light coming at the end of the tunnel where they hit the goal. Then they hit it again and they've hit it again. He has not hit goal in the last four months. And the trend that they're on,   The Dental A Team (08:12) Wow.   Wow.   DAT Trish Ackerman (08:37) Well, running parallel with getting the new patients with the significant needs and such. What I also did is ensure that both him and his associate were really polished on presenting treatment. ⁓ They had intraoral cameras that were collecting dust like a treadmill in a living room that a lot of people have seen happen or hanging clothes on. They got those dusted off. They use them on every single patient. There's a way to use photography.   The Dental A Team (08:49) Mm-hmm.   you   DAT Trish Ackerman (09:05) And there's a way to use photography. And this doctor, anything I encouraged him to try, anything, he did it. There was zero pushback on any of the recommendations. I've seen, I know how this works. I know what doesn't work. And when these doctors, like this practice, when I broke it down, like here's how you use photography and here's how you share it with the patient, it just continued to skyrocket.   The Dental A Team (09:07) Absolutely.   DAT Trish Ackerman (09:35) The whole team was on board with him. Then we got the associate, the associate dentist on board and we are now getting ready to, he's getting ready to start construction. We're doing a build out. We're adding ops.   The Dental A Team (09:49) Nice.   Wow. And how long has this been? So you started with this practice, they're not hitting goal, they're not doing the things that they wanted to do at legacy practice to now hitting goal four months in a row. How long has this client been with you? Since April. So right now we're recording, that's about five months that this client's been with Trish. And to hear that.   DAT Trish Ackerman (10:05) This is April.   The Dental A Team (10:13) ⁓ what I think is magic one Trish shout out to you, think beautiful job as a consultant, because when we go into an office, there's literally thousands of levers that we could go after. And I think something that consultants have to really do in something I'm very sticky on any consultant who works with us and Trish kudos to you. Is finding the one lever that's going to move the practice forward the most, the quickest, the fastest for fastest ROI that's going to get there because Trish, could have gotten in and implemented, you know,   X, Y, or Z, and they would not see the results. you saw, I mean, you got tight, you got tight space. And I think also having a consultant that comes to the table that's willing to think outside the box. I mean, you got five operatories, two doctors, that's squishy. That's a squishy. And for you to realize they're not maximizing all the days that they could be. And to do it in a way to help both doctors. I also know that you have maybe played a little competition game.   because you realize and you find out that when doctors are a little competitive, it works for some, doesn't work for others. But then they start to watch to see, if this doctor can do it, I think I can do it. And it's not doing anything unethical. It's truly making sure that they're looking for opportunities, using intra-orals, like stuff that was already there. And I think this is what I love about being consultants are we see the entire treasure map. We see all the different things we could do. And we're like, all right.   This is going to be a fun game. And Trish, this is why I think you're Tadda. You're the confetti, like in a human form. You look at this and say, how can I make this fun? How can I get these people bought into it? And then we go for the harder pieces, but you, you dug gold. found the intro oral cameras and you taught them a few things. You figured out how to change the scheduling. And what I hope people hear is Trish that in about three, four moves very quickly and they're hitting goal. So when you're sitting here stuck at the ceiling and thinking, Oh my gosh, there's no way to get there. I just want to help you see that.   The answer is probably much closer than you think it is. You just are buried and you can't see it you need somebody outside who's not sitting in it that can guide you. like, shout out to this doctor, these offices, they take your lead. I feel like it's like, if you're gonna hire an expert who's been there, done that, done that successfully, Trish, I'd like to highlight, tell me how many team members before you came to Dental A Team, how many team members were you overseeing?   DAT Trish Ackerman (12:30) In my past, oh gosh. think at the max at the end, was close to 160.   The Dental A Team (12:31) Yes.   160 and how many practices were you overseeing at that time? All right, so you have a consultant who has worked with 16 practices, 160 employees overseeing them. Do you think she knows a thing or two of how to help a five-op practice with two doctors and a smaller team turn a few levers very quickly to get them up to where they need to go? The answer is absolutely yes. And I think Trish, that's the magic, that's the beauty that you were able to do so quickly, so thoroughly, and just something real fun.   DAT Trish Ackerman (12:43) 16.   The Dental A Team (13:09) I know like we, this is a quick podcast. I asked you to come in between client calls. So I know there's so much more magic I just want to share with everybody. But as we wrap up, cause I do know like you guys, they're consultants, they podcast in between coaching calls. They're here to deliver to clients and to also share with you. But any last thoughts you want to add as I know we wrap up so you can get on your way to another client, help them get their magic. Any last thoughts you have of this very quick office autopsy that you think people should recognize, maybe they're in the same boat as well.   DAT Trish Ackerman (13:38) Getting uncomfortable. Getting uncomfortable is going to be very important and it's okay. This doctor got uncomfortable. During the implementations that we were making, there was a team member that was not on the bus ⁓ and that was also holding the practice back a little bit. When we go in to make these types of changes, it's like, it's the unknown.   I do certain things a certain way every day the same and I understand how it feels when you're asked to do it differently. But when I first go in, that's the first thing that I will kind of announce and ask. Are you going to be okay getting uncomfortable with me? Because I promise, I promise I'm here. I'm here. I'm in your corner. And my job is to not watch people fall. My job is to watch them rise.   And I use the six pack analogy. We all want the six pack of abs. And it's going to require a lot of sit ups. And our abs can get a little bit sore, but the outcome is just really, really magical. And so once they make the commitment, like, OK, yeah, I'm ready. Let's get uncomfortable. That's when it really takes off.   The Dental A Team (14:55) That's incredible. And I think Trish, like you said, we can give you all the tactics. We can help you with all the how, but you've got to be showing up as a practice. So if you're not ready to get uncomfortable, it's not the time for you to do consulting. But I would say, like you said, most people call for consulting when they're much further down the path of hardship than they should. So if you're kind of like, all right, I know I could do some help. I know I could make some changes. Now's the time. But you also have to be willing to be uncomfortable. So Trish.   DAT Trish Ackerman (14:57) video.   The Dental A Team (15:22) I know you've got to run. I appreciate you so much being on the podcast. I think you just bring so much magic. You're so welcome. And for all of you listening, if you can see yourself maybe in this story that we shared, I know it was a very small snippet today, but there's so many things that we do, but I hope you can see in just a couple of months, this practice's life was changed, utterly changed.

So if you're maybe in that like, gosh, we're kind of like losing momentum.   DAT Trish Ackerman (15:25) Thank you, Chair.   The Dental A Team (15:52) Reach out, we'd love to help you.
