But here's the thing—when it works, it really works.In this episode, Toni and Raul talk about why pricing changes freak people out, what actually happens when you go through with them, and how even small tweaks can drive serious revenue.

Would you like access to our advanced agency training for FREE? https://www.agencymastery360.com/training Let's get real for a second. 40% of CMOs are cutting agency budgets this year. (Not hype. That's from Gartner's 2025 CMO spend survey.) If you're still out there selling tasks instead of outcomes, blending in like every other “me too” agency, you're not just at risk—you're probably already on the cut list. But here's the good news: Some agencies aren't just surviving right now. They're growing like crazy. Why? Because they're leading. They're essential. They're uncuttable. Vendors Get Cut. Partners Stay. Here's what most agencies are still doing: Taking orders. Waiting for direction. Hoping results keep the client around. But when CMOs tighten budgets, they don't cut true strategic partners—they cut vendors and noise. In-house teams and AI are replacing basic production. If your agency doesn't feel essential, you will get replaced. Period. You know what else CMOs are cutting? Agencies that over-promise, under-deliver, and ghost clients after the deal closes. I've hired a few agencies over the past couple of years, and I can say most agencies have the slick branding and a confident talk, but once the deal is closed execution just falls apart. I've seen this more times than I can count. Communication fades away and no one takes ownership This is what CMOs are frustrated with. They're not just making cuts to save money. They're doing it after getting tired of disappointments. Joey Coleman says it best: “Most clients don't leave because of price; they leave because they don't feel seen, heard, or supported in the first 100 days.” Remember that while agency teams get excited and start high-fiving each other once the deal closes, the client is sitting there thinking, “Did I just waste my budget?” That gap between your excitement and their anxiety is where trust is either built or destroyed. And it's true. Our mastermind member Marty took that to heart, redesigned his client experience, and grew to a multi-million-dollar agency because he didn't wait for tasks—he led, flew out to meet clients, set clear expectations, and became indispensable. Make Yourself Uncuttable You want to stay off the cut list? Lead. Own the relationship. Here's how: 1. Find Quick Wins Fast Don't wait six months to show value. Launch something in the first 30 days. Fix something they didn't even ask for. Send a Loom video explaining how you improved their funnel. Let them say, “These people move fast.” 2. Overcommunicate When Things Aren't Working Most agencies go quiet when results dip. Leaders say, “Here's what's happening, here's what we're changing, here's what to expect.” Transparency builds trust. 3. Be a Resource, Not a Responder Stop waiting for tasks. Show up with new hooks, funnel fixes, better angles. Be the call they make when anything breaks in their business, not just when they need a landing page. 4. Take Ownership, Not Orders Stop asking, “What do you want us to do next?” Start saying, “Here's what we're doing, and here's why.” That's how you shift from vendor to partner. 5. Productize and Simplify If it takes you 30 minutes to explain what you do, you're in trouble. Make your offer outcome-driven, simple, and memorable. Like the PR agency that said, “We turn publicity into pipeline.” That sticks. Real Results from Agencies Leading This Way Just look at Brittany, who stopped winging it, joined the mastermind, and committed to leading: Revenue up 35% in a quarter Profit up 41% Churn dropped 32% SEO and social revenue doubled And she didn't get there with a fancy hack. She got there by leading and building trust. This Isn't Just About Staying Off a Cut List It's about building an agency that deserves to grow—one that earns trust, delivers outcomes, and leads. Want a place to start? Pick one of these actions today: Tighten your onboarding. Call a client you haven't talked to in a while. Launch the damn thing you've been sitting on. Because the agencies that win aren't waiting for permission or praying for renewals. They're leading, earning trust, and making themselves uncuttable.   If you're ready to attract better clients and become uncuttable, check out the Attract Masterclass. It will help you position your agency to pull in the right leads instead of just more leads.

In this episode, we're joined by Chris Tottman from Notion Capital. Before becoming a VC, Chris co-founded MessageLabs and helped grow it into a $700 million exit, so he's seen the startup journey from both sides of the table.We talk about what really happens when your product-market fit starts to slip—and why it quietly wrecks your entire go-to-market strategy. Sales start missing targets. Marketing can't get traction. Churn creeps up. But most teams keep pushing forward without realizing the core problem is the product just doesn't fit anymore.(00:00) - Introduction (09:55) - Common mistakes in Go-To-Market strategies (19:54) - Identifying a VC case (30:05) - Importance of Product Market Fit (39:38) - Transitioning from VC to PE (50:07) - Next week: pricing changes

The Jays' 10-game win streak is over, following a game that brought all sorts of grumbling about Vladimir Guerrero Jr. much too easily back to the fore. But it has changed the trajectory of the club's season immeasurably, as they now head into their final series before the All-Star Break with an 88% chance of making the playoffs, according to FanGraphs—up from just 42% at the start of the season, and 40% at the end of May. Churn at the bottom of the roster matters deeply now, trade deadline thoughts are dancing in everyone's head, Bo Bichette has a platform from which he can make himself a whole hell of a lot of money next winter, Anthony Santander and Alek Manoah still have time to put their stamps on the season, and this week we talked about all of it—and more!

"Focus on the why people stay — not just that they can leave."   By Editor-in-Chief, Concierge Medicine Today   Why are some small medical offices in low cost (i.e. sub $99/pmpm) cash-only subscription-based healthcare delivery talking so much [in the past year I've noticed!] about "the churn", "you can leave at anytime" or telling patients, "There's the door!" -- Every medical office has those difficult patients, I get it. Subscription-based care works best when it builds continuity and trust over time and sometimes that's just not possible with some people. Let's take a lesson from some of the best subscription models (like Netflix, Apple, Concierge Medicine, Executive Healthcare programs, Spotify) -- they don't constantly remind customers [ie patients] they can cancel — they focus on why the product is worth staying FOR!   "It's no longer about being the best Doctor in the world anymore, it's about being the best Doctor FOR the world, FOR your Patients and FOR your local community!"   If you're building or promoting a subscription-based medical practice, focus on the why people stay — not just that they can leave.   LISTEN TO FULL EPISODE ...

SUMMARY: We've loaded out The Churn! The law goes after Matt for an insurance gap and speed traps Jacob, Matt finds a high-end pickleball venue, and Paul goes to the bathroom more than he cares to. We talk about fishy calendars, recording phones, plus some stories of unexpected relations during Scoop Mail, and a game of Obelisk.

Bands like Seven Mary Three couldn't have existed any other time but in the 90s. Grunge was king, guitars were heavy, and bands were full of angst. This formula served them well when "Cumbersome" landed at #1 on the rock charts, but the label didn't get behind much else and despite the band carrying on for a decade playing to a rabid fan base, they never had another hit (or much respect). Lead singer Jason Ross joins us this week to discuss the journey, including his ongoing career in the business side of music and why the band aren't likely to get back together. The good news is their independently released debut album Churn from '94 has just been remastered and re-released on vinyl for the first time.  I think you'll be surprised by what a fun, music-loving guy Jason is.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. testified in front of the House Committee on Energy and Commerce Tuesday, where Democrats confronted the health secretary on hot button issues ranging from his recent overhaul over the CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) committee, Kennedy's recently published—and error-ridden—MAHA report, and his threat to ban government scientists from publishing in certain medical journals.  Meanwhile, at the FDA, the mass exodus of senior leadership continues. On Monday, Jacqueline Corrigan-Curay, acting head of the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER), announced her retirement as of July. This follows the ouster of Nicole Verdun—the wildly popular director of the FDA's Office of Therapeutic Products—and her deputy, Rachael Anatol. Their involuntary departure sent shock waves through the biopharma industry, as Verdun had been considered a stabilizing force at the rapidly reshaping agency.  Speaking of the revamped ACIP, the new panel will meet for the first time Wednesday and Thursday to discuss COVID-19 vaccine safety, maternal and pediatric RSV vaccines and more, as experts question the experience and anti-vaccine views of some of Kennedy's recently appointed members and others express concern about the potential politicization of the committee.   On the clinical front, Eli Lilly, Novo Nordisk and others presented new data from their next-generation obesity programs at the American Diabetes Association's 85th Scientific Congress. After failing to impress investors—and meet its own high expectations—with CagriSema, Novo sought to reassure investors by touting a safety profile “in line with the GLP1-RA class,” and Eli Lilly reported that bimagrumab, when used alongside Novo's Wegovy, led to additional weight loss while also preserving muscle mass.  Finally, we recap BIO2025, where Jef Akst, Lori Ellis and Heather McKenzie moderated panels on cell and gene therapy, cybersecurity and AI, and accelerating market entry for rare disease treatments. Relevant to the latter discussion, congressional Republicans dropped the Orphan Cures Act from their version of President Donald Trump's “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” and congresspeople, including Rep. Gus Bilirakis (R-Fla.) at Tuesday's hearing asked Kennedy to commit to supporting the priority review program for rare pediatric diseases, which expired at the end of last year.  

Today - a look at the FOMC meeting, which saw the Fed smelling stronger stagflationary risks, while the US dollar rose across the board on the failure of the Fed to wax more dovish perhaps.

In stocks, we discuss Coinbase leading the gainers among S&P 500 stocks on the rise in stablecoin uses, which also drove two superstar stocks to post the worst declines of all S&P 500 members yesterday.

MUSICTaylor Swift has bought her masters, meaning she now has more control over her music moving forward than she originally did, and early reports from industry outlets like Billboard, which have followed the case closely from the beginning, suggest a sale price of $360 million. Seven Mary Three's debut album, 1994's Churn, has been reissued digitally with three previously unreleased tracks: “Wrecking Wall,” an early demo of “My My,” and “Over Nothing,” which served as the blueprint for “Margarette” on both Churn and American Standard.· Rod Stewart canceled his Monday night show in Las Vegas at the last minute, sharing with fans on Instagram, "I am sorry to inform you that I'm not feeling well and my show tonight at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace is being rescheduled to June 10th." Meghan Markle is trying to build her lifestyle brand, but not everyone is on board. Word has it that Meghan asked Dolly Parton to appear on her Netflix show "With Love, Meghan", and got DENIED. Lainey Wilson is known for always wearing her signature bell-bottoms. "I have completely lost count, but I've worn a new pair onstage each time for the past 15 years.· What comes to mind when I say the BEST Disney movie soundtrack. TVJonathan Joss, best known for voicing John Redcorn on King of the Hill, was fatally shot Sunday in San Antonio, Texas, Variety reports. MOVING ON INTO MOVIE NEWS:George Romero invented the zombie genre as we know it with 1968's "Night of the Living Dead". And now his daughter Tina is keeping his legacy alive . . . but with a twist. Switch 2 pre-order panic … The Nintendo Switch 2 will launch this Thursday, June 5th. Unfortunately, a bunch of excited fans got a surprise they didn't ask for when some big stores here in the U.S. and England canceled their pre-orders. They thought they were going to open the new console on day one – but now, they're scrambling. The stores suggest the customers will get a chance to buy a console next month – and some of the customers will be getting some store credit to ease their pain. AND FINALLYReddit users have been naming the celebrities they think were UNFAIRLY canceled or mistreated by the public. Let's see if you can remember why these people were canceled:Brendan Fraser: He was basically shunned after accusing the former president of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association of groping him. He made a massive comeback with "The Whale", after which we all realized how much we missed him. Janet Jackson: Wardrobe Malfunction. We learned that phrase during the Super Bowl Halftime Show of 2004, when Justin Timberlake exposed Janet's bejeweled nipple. Everyone got on HER case, but Justin escaped pretty much unscathed for some reason. Corey Feldman: Corey, who was a famous child actor, alleged that he'd been sexually abused by powerful figures in the industry. When he publicly discussed the claims during an interview with Barbara Walters, the talk show host said, “You're damaging an entire industry.” Sinead O'Connor: She never really recovered from the blowback after she tore up a picture of Pope John Paul the Second on "Saturday Night Live" in 1992. But she was doing it to protest child abuse in the Catholic Church . . . and she had a point. Rose McGowan: Rose's career took a hit after she publicly accused Harvey Weinstein of sexual abuse and rape. Katherin Heigel: Katherine faced immense backlash after calling out the working conditions on the Grey's Anatomy set. At the time, she was branded “difficult” to work with. Rebecca Black: She was just a 13-year-old kid trying to realize her dream of pop stardom when she released the horrible song "Friday" and it's just-as-horrible music video in 2011.

Ever delivered knockout results… only to watch a client walk? It's a brutal truth of business: sometimes, amazing just isn't enough.In this episode of the Stay Hungry Podcast, Joel, fresh from a literal fever dream in Borneo (where he didn't see enough orangutans but did have a business epiphany!), and Martha unpack why. Using a real-life gut punch: a client who left despite an 18x return on ad spend, they reveal why your best work can vanish if clients don't see the 'so what?' and 'what's next?'.Whether you're in marketing, accounting, or any service game, if you're not constantly painting the bigger picture and showing the roadmap, you're risking it all. Joel and Martha dig into the common traps: assuming clients "just get it" (spoiler: they often don't), failing to provide context for your wins, and not re-enrolling them in the exciting journey ahead.

Darryl Hicks, founder and CEO of FlexPay, takes us behind the scenes of a problem costing subscription businesses millions each month – failed payments and the resulting involuntary customer churn. From his early days cleaning toilets in his parents' commercial cleaning business to consulting for major telecom companies in the Twin Towers, Darryl shares his unique journey to founding a company that's now processing billions of transactions using sophisticated AI. What began as a solution he built for his own subscription businesses has evolved into a mission to fundamentally transform how payments work.FlexPay stands apart through deep partnerships with financial institutions, sharing crucial data that has traditionally been siloed between merchants and issuers. This approach allows their machine learning models to continuously improve. For subscription businesses experiencing millions in monthly failed payments, even small improvements in recovery rates translate to substantial revenue.The conversation reveals how payment system opacity creates unnecessary friction for legitimate commerce. When issuing banks make decisions without transparency – whether declining transactions due to suspected fraud or based on undisclosed policies against certain merchant categories – both businesses and consumers suffer. While excited about innovations like stable coins, Darryl remains pragmatic about the future of payments: "I would not bet against Visa and Mastercard." Rather than trying to replace traditional rails, he's focused on reducing friction within existing systems through better data sharing and transparency. For entrepreneurs, he emphasizes the importance of building strong advisory boards and following your natural passions.

Your ideal customer profile (ICP) is the north star for your entire company: it determines who you're building for and selling to. Though most growth-stage founders think they know who their ICP is, very few know how to update and refine it to keep the company focused as they grow—which can lead to a lot of headaches down the road.In this debut episode of a16z Growth's new company scaling podcast, the a16z Guide to Growth, a16z's Joe Morrissey (General Partner, a16z Growth), Michael King (Partner, Go-to-Market Network), and Mark Regan (Partner, a16z Growth) break down why ICP misalignment is often the hidden cause of common problems across the entire company, from pipeline gaps and bloated marketing spend to stalled product roadmaps—and dive deep on how to fix it.They offer tactical advice for defining (and refining!) your ICP as you scale, explain why getting it right requires company-wide alignment, and how to navigate the “precision paradox” when implementing it. Plus, why ICPs matter even more in the AI era, and how a well-executed ICP shows up across the business when it's working. Resources: Read more on sales and go-to-market on our Growth Content CompendiumFind Joe on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/morrisseyjoe/Find Mark on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mregan178/Find Michael on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-king-62258/Find Emma on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/emmajanaskie/ Stay Updated: Let us know what you think: https://ratethispodcast.com/a16zFind a16z on Twitter: https://twitter.com/a16zFind a16z on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/a16zSubscribe on your favorite podcast app: https://a16z.simplecast.com/Follow our host: https://twitter.com/stephsmithioPlease note that the content here is for informational purposes only; should NOT be taken as legal, business, tax, or investment advice or be used to evaluate any investment or security; and is not directed at any investors or potential investors in any a16z fund. a16z and its affiliates may maintain investments in the companies discussed.

This episode features an interview with Steve Rotter, CMO at DeepL, a global communications platform powered by Language AI.In this episode, Steve shares with us the power of a small uplift to your website when you see large scale website traffic, and the importance of pushing your point of view over your product features. He also dives into the value of brand in avoiding churn. Key Takeaways:Small changes to the website can have a small uplift, and when you are dealing with large-scale website traffic, that can have a big impact on the business. For large enterprises, don't underestimate the value of small optimizations on the website. People churn products, they don't churn from valued brands and communities. Make sure to invest in your brand accordingly. Explaining your POV over pushing your features, allows you to demonstrate the outsized impact of your product more effectively. Quote:  Brand is critical. My general sense is, people churn from products, they don't churn from communities, they don't churn from brands with personalities that they enjoy. So, we spend a lot of time looking at that in terms of, you know, what is the voice, what is the language, what is the identity of the brand?Episode Timestamps: *(04:11) The Trust Tree: People churn from products, not brands and communities *(24:13) The Playbook: Explain your point of view, over pushing all your features*(39:22) Quick Hits: Scott's Quick HitsSponsor:Pipeline Visionaries is brought to you by Qualified.com.

Is it really possible to eliminate client churn in professional services? Knownwell's CMO Courtney Baker, CEO David DeWolf, and Chief Product and Technology Officer Mohan Rao dive deep into the myths surrounding unavoidable churn and why too many companies accept it as inevitable. They challenge this mindset, exploring how AI-driven insights can shift businesses from resignation to proactive client retention strategies. Special guest Peter Kang, co-founder of Barrel Holdings, joins Pete Buer for a revealing conversation about "silent churn" — when clients slip away without warning. Kang shares how systems thinking, deeper client engagement, and recognizing early warning signs are key to building resilient agency relationships. And why when you start to hear, "All is good" over and over, alarm bells should start going off in your head.  In "AI in the Wild," Pete Buer breaks down new research from the Pew Research Center highlighting the gap between public and expert perceptions of AI's future — and what it means for businesses today.

On this week's show we ask, how satisfied are you with your streaming service providers? We also read your emails and take a look at the week's news. News: Prime Video has 88% of customers on ad-supported plans Amazon gearing up to roll out new Fire TV OS on streaming player Roku announces 2 new streaming sticks starting at just $30 Max begins password-sharing crackdown Other: Aiwa: Then and Now State of Streaming: Satisfaction with streaming providers (The Streamable) How are Americans really feeling about their streaming services? Recently, we surveyed nearly 1,500 cord-cutters to get a clearer picture of how people are watching, what they're paying, and which services they are most satisfied with. The results reveal shifting habits in a saturated streaming market and point to what matters most as we speed right through 2025. Full article here… Streaming services people use: YouTube TV: 30% Hulu + Live TV: 10% Sling TV: 7% DIRECTV STREAM – 6% Fubo: 3% Philo: 3% DIRECTV via internet: 2% Dish: 2% None of the above: 38% Are subscribers satisfied? Despite rising subscription costs and service fragmentation, 58% of users are satisfied with their streaming experience, 33% are neutral, and only 9% are dissatisfied. This high satisfaction rate, despite 2024's price hikes and content reshuffles, is likely due to improved app performance, better device compatibility, and more tailored subscription options. How many services do people use? In 2025, streaming is typically a multi-platform experience: 49% of households subscribe to 2-4 services, 38% use 5 or more, and only 12% stick to a single service. Content fragmentation drives users to stack subscriptions for their favorite shows and sports, a shift from the cable era, making multiple subscriptions the norm for convenience. Monthly spending on streaming The typical streaming bill has surged, with 35% of users spending $50-$100 monthly, often on live TV and multiple on-demand subscriptions. Additionally, 26% spend over $100, likely on premium plans or add-ons, while only 19% keep costs at $25 or less by limiting subscriptions or using free trials. Streaming costs and complexity now rival traditional cable bills. Bundled benefits Bundling is a popular cost-saving strategy, with 31% of respondents accessing streaming through Amazon Prime and 14% via phone bills, often getting discounted or free access to platforms like Netflix or Disney+. However, 36% prefer direct subscriptions or find their preferred platforms aren't bundled, showing bundling is common but not universal. Churn vs. loyalty In 2025, 70% of users showed strong loyalty to their existing services, indicating platform stickiness despite subscription fatigue. However, 50% canceled at least one streaming service in 2024, driven by cyclical pauses, price hikes, or lack of content. Unlike cable, streaming subscriptions are easily canceled, leading to dynamic, seasonal churn, with some users returning for new content. What matters most? Here are the features that matter most to users: Affordable pricing Access to local channels Live sports availability Device compatibility (smart TVs, streaming sticks, etc.) Channel variety Reliable streaming quality DVR functionality Support for 4K resolution and surround sound (less critical) Preferred streaming devices Smart TVs are the top choice for streaming, used by 56% of viewers, followed by Roku devices at 44%, then Fire TV, Apple TV, and web/mobile viewing. This highlights a trend toward living room, lean-back streaming experiences over desktop viewing, driven by widespread smart TV adoption and improved built-in apps.

Adam Aurand spent nearly a decade of his life stuck in a loop: emergency rooms, psychiatric hospitals, jails, prison, and the streets in and around Seattle. During that time, he picked up diagnoses of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and schizoaffective disorder. He also used opioids and methamphetamine.Aurand's life is an example of what happens to many people who experience psychosis in the US: a perpetual shuffle from one place to the next for visits lasting hours or days or weeks, none of them leading to longer-lasting support.This week on Reveal, reporters who made the podcast Lost Patients, by KUOW and the Seattle Times, try to answer a question: Why do America's systems for treating serious mental illness break down in this way? The answer took them from the present-day streets of Seattle to decades into America's past.You can find Lost Patients wherever you get your podcasts:NPR: https://www.npr.org/podcasts/510377/lost-patientsApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/lost-patients/id1733735613 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1avleoc5U4DA7U37GFPzIH This is an update of an episode that originally aired in July 2024.  Support Reveal's journalism at Revealnews.org/donatenow Subscribe to our weekly newsletter to get the scoop on new episodes at Revealnews.org/weekly Instagram Take our listener survey Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices
