Podcasts about Collecting

Eric interviews Eric Cohen, a long-time figure in the aquarium industry, where he discusses his career evolution and current businesses, Blue Life USA and tankstop.com. Cohen details his early role as the second person to import live rock from Fiji to the US in the mid-1980s, sharing an anecdote about the first importer who went to jail for drug dealing. He explains how he co-founded Sea Dwelling Creatures in 1992, running it for 25 years before selling it in 2016 due to burnout and family health issues, driven by his growing focus on conservation. Cohen also discusses his re-entry into the livestock trade through tankstop.com, focusing on sustainable practices like importing real live rock from Australia and selling proprietary products through Blue Life USA, including the successful algae remedy Flux RX. Key Takeaways: Be ready to seize unexpected business opportunities, even in the early stages of your professional life. Recognize the seasonal changes in life and be willing to step away from a demanding business due to burnout or family needs. Cultivate a spiritual or devotional practice, such as Bhakti Yoga, to help stay grounded and manage your ego. Provide exceptional and personalized customer service to ensure interactions remain enjoyable and keep people involved in the hobby. Embrace new passions, like e-mountain biking, to find physical activity and enjoyment later in life.

Most farmers try to push the “big sale” first… but what if your smallest product was actually the secret to long-term customer loyalty? In this episode, I break down the concept of the gateway offer—a key piece of your sales funnel that many farms overlook. You'll learn what it is, why it matters, how to identify yours, and how to use it to grow your customer base on purpose. You'll discover: What a gateway offer is (with examples for veggie, meat, flower, and value-added farms) Why small, low-risk products are often your most powerful marketing tool How to position and promote your gateway item online and at the farmers market What to do after a customer buys it to lead them deeper into your product ladder A mindset shift that will help you stop seeing small sales as a loss—and start seeing them as an investment Thank You to Our Podcast Sponsors: Local Line: Local Line is my farm's preferred e-commerce platform for farmers.

It's one of the most common and most confusing questions out there: Should you take Social Security at 62, wait until full retirement age, or hold off until 70? In this All About FERS episode, Floyd Shilanski, with his 50+ years of financial advising experience, breaks down the pros, cons, and math behind claiming Social Security early vs. delaying.

In a climate where most consumers are concerned about tariffs (84%) and inflation (80%), the holiday season is poised to be a battlefield for retention and revenue. Optimove's Moshe Demri, SVP of Global Revenue, joins Future Commerce to walk through the 2025 Consumer Holiday Shopping Report and explain why the “charm customer” (those responsive to modest 10%-15% discounts) may be the key to sustainable growth.The Cherry-Picker's DilemmaKey takeaways:Meet the three customer archetypes: Full-price buyers who purchase regardless of promotions, cherry pickers who chase deep discounts and rarely return, and "charm customers" who respond to modest 10%-15% discounts and show the highest retention rates over time. (The fourth archetype: Brian)Transparency as a competitive advantage: Brands that communicate their promotional calendar early (like telling customers in October "this is the only Black Friday promotion you'll see from us") build trust while competitors exhaust and frustrate their audiences.Post-holiday retention begins at checkout: Collecting gift-giving data and offering time-sensitive follow-up promotions can transform one-time gift purchasers into repeat customers. The key is creating urgency without devaluing the brand.Communication requires quality, not quantity: Dodging customer fatigue is worth the awareness risk.  Dialing back from daily to weekly emails might be the better move for companies this year.Strategic budget allocation matters more than discount depth: Want to boost long-term profitability and brand equity? Give your VIP customers high-value discounts and experiences, not low-tier cherry-pickers who are unlikely to stick around.

You can live in a fascist utopia where everything seems ideal, as long as you don't look too closely at the uncomfortable details. Or, you can live in a techno-oligarchy, where a handful of mega corporations make all of the decisions for you with little regard beyond their bottom line. Fortunately, you don't have to choose, because Peacemaker on HBO Max (I think that's what it is called this week) and Alien Earth on FX/Hulu let you stick a toe in each universe. This week, the Regular Joes wrap up the first season of Noah Hawley's Alien Earth, and discuss the episode six reveal that drives home how little we understood what is actually happening in James Gunn's Peacemaker season two. Are they good? Let's just say these two creators excel at getting new life out of existing properties. There's also the usual Random Topics and around of What's in the Box. Thanks for listening!

In this powerful episode, I sit down with global saxophonist and influencer Chris Mitchell, whose life is a living testimony of faith, resilience, and the pursuit of purpose. Chris's story begins with unimaginable childhood trauma—witnessing extreme family violence, homelessness, and nights spent under bridges or on church floors. Yet, through it all, he never abandoned his faith. Instead, he leaned into his God-given gift of music, discovered at just five years old. From performing saxophone for tips at a small restaurant, to building an email list of over half a million contacts by hand, to selling out shows and eventually touring internationally with Groupon partnerships, Chris's relentless action and belief in divine guidance transformed his life. Today, he's not only one of the first 200 paid influencers on TikTok, but also a world-touring musician who's performed at major events, including for boxing champion Claressa Shields. His authenticity and commitment to connecting deeply with his audience set him apart in an age of surface-level influence. This conversation is about more than music. It's about overcoming adversity, trusting your gift, and building something extraordinary from nothing.  0:00 Intro 6:33 – The night his father stabbed his mother and sister 9:31 – How his mother miraculously survived 19:55 – Discovering his musical gift at age 4-5 24:18 – Evictions, homelessness & living in a church 31:53 – Staying on the “narrow path” through faith 49:31 – Graduating during the recession & struggling to find work 50:43 – Playing saxophone for tips at Turquoise 55:37 – The hustle: earning from small gigs 1:00:10 – Collecting half a million emails by hand 1:06:41 – Renting a jazz club & selling out in 20 minutes 1:12:29 – Touring America, sleeping in his SUV  1:24:00 – Partnering with Groupon to do an international world tour 1:27:03 – Surviving hardship while chasing the dream 1:28:28 – How faith guided every step 1:36:04 – Authenticity & building real connection with fans 1:40:14 – Final wisdom: resilience, faith & the power of your gift 1:55:56 A mini concert Check out Mark's best selling book on Leadership Strategy:

One of the biggest struggles for new farm businesses? No testimonials. When you're just starting out, you know your product is amazing—but your customers don't. And without social proof, it's hard for new buyers to feel confident putting your food in their cart (or their bodies). In this episode, I share a simple, repeatable strategy to jumpstart your testimonials—even with zero reviews. And yes, it involves giving away product strategically to build the kind of trust that drives sales. You'll learn: Why testimonials are one of your biggest marketing levers The catch-22 most beginner farmers fall into (and how to break it) A simple script + 5-step plan to get your first reviews fast What to ask for (written, photo, video, or all 3!)

Welcome back to another episode of School Counseling Simplified! Throughout September, we have been diving deep into classroom lessons. I love using them as tier 1 interventions, and so far we have talked about how to plan, schedule, teach, and manage behaviors during lessons. Today, we are shifting the focus to data and exploring how to measure the success of your classroom counseling lessons. Often, counselors rely on self-assessments or individual assessments during small group or one-on-one sessions, which is a fantastic approach. But did you know you can also track data in your classroom lessons without feeling overwhelmed? In this episode, I am sharing two simple and practical ways to measure effectiveness. Collecting new data This includes surveying parents and teachers throughout the year to gather feedback on the effectiveness of your lessons.  By asking questions such as which topics have been most helpful or what improvements they have noticed, you can continue to modify and strengthen your lessons.  Surveys can be kept short and simple with just a few questions to ensure people complete them.  You can also share results in newsletters or with your administration to advocate for your role. Instant student feedback  A brief half-sheet with three simple questions at the end of a lesson can provide valuable insights into what students are learning and how they are engaging with the material. How to use this data  The purpose of gathering information is not just to collect it but to use it to improve future lessons and demonstrate the impact of your program. All data is good data because it allows you to revise, reflect, and show the power of school counseling. Your action step for this week is to create a parent feedback survey and send it out. This simple tool can make a big difference in helping you measure effectiveness and advocate for your work.   Resources Mentioned: Join IMPACT stressfreeschoolcounseling.com/classlessons   Connect with Rachel: TpT Store Blog Instagram Facebook Page Facebook Group Pinterest Youtube   More About School Counseling Simplified: School Counseling Simplified is a podcast offering easy to implement strategies for busy school counselors.

I have had a dozen cellar apps. In fact, many were brought to me as the President of the Original Wine of the Month Club to be tested. The current database that houses all my internal tastings over the past 35 years was never produced as a commercial product. And as you can imagine, it is so 1993. Thanks to the energy and self proported "tech geek" Eric LeVine, keeping track of your cellar and much more is at your fingertips.   Not only has he created an incredibly robust app in the wine trade, but he has also created a community of collectors and novices alike. When your name rhymes with “wine,” it seems only natural you'd play a key role in reshaping the world of wine collecting. Eric LeVine—yes, “LeVine” with a capital V, as in “wine”—joins Wine Talks to uncork a conversation that's as much about technology as it is about terroir. In this fascinating episode, you'll discover how a meticulous software engineer transformed from a tech geek into a bona fide wine enthusiast after a life-changing cycling trip through Tuscany. You'll hear first-hand how Eric's frustration with clunky, outdated wine cataloguing tools led him to build CellarTracker—a platform that's now indispensable for collectors and curious drinkers alike. Listen in to understand how CellarTracker blossomed from a personal spreadsheet to a global community, amassing over 12 million tasting notes, helping both green beginners and seasoned oenophiles keep track of their treasured bottles (and avoid that collector's nightmare of opening a vintage past its prime). You'll also learn how CellarTracker leverages cutting-edge AI to make wine research and cellar management nearly effortless, whether you're uploading receipts or hunting for that perfect Loire red hidden on your top cellar shelf. Eric goes beyond geekery, showing how technology—and even a little bit of chat-based wizardry—makes wine less intimidating, more approachable, and, most importantly, more social. If you've ever wondered how technology can add confidence and curiosity to your wine journey, or how the experience of each bottle is about more than just what's in your glass, this episode will leave you swirling with inspiration.   CellarTracker (Eric Levine is the founder and CEO) Website: https://www.cellartracker.com   #wine #podcast #technology #CellarTracker #winecollecting #winesoftware #AIinwine #wineinventory #winereviews #EricLeVine #winetech #winedatabase #wineenthusiasts #PaulK #winetalks #wineeducation #wineexploration #winetasting #winecommunity #winejourney

This week's flagship is all about the long game in collecting. Too often the hobby gets swept up in hype cycles, record sales, and FOMO. But the collectors who stick around for years don't chase the herd. They think independently, focus on discovery, and build collections that reflect who they are.In this episode, I share the story of an unexpected Marvin Harrison 1/1 pickup that reminded me why curiosity and exploration matter. We'll talk about resisting comparison, finding joy in the hidden corners of the hobby, and why turning left when others go right might be the most satisfying path you can take as a collector.Get your free copy of Collecting For Keeps: Finding Meaning In A Hobby Built On HypeStart your 7 day free trial of Stacking Slabs Patreon Today[Distributed on Sunday] Sign up for the Stacking Slabs Weekly Rip Newsletter using this linkFollow Stacking Slabs: | Twitter | Instagram | Facebook | Tiktok
