Our guest in this episode is Matt Stanley, the founder of Get Reviews and Leads and a passionate marketing architect with 30 years of experience. What started as a fascination with the early internet evolved into a mission-driven career for Matt, focused on using technology to serve people and build thriving, human-centered businesses. In our chat, Matt shares his powerful frameworks for moving beyond simple deliverables to create marketing that forges deep, emotional connections and lifelong customer loyalty.Key points discussed include:* Connect with your dream customer's "reptile brain" by understanding their deep-seated pains and fears.* Closing the sale is the starting line; create a legendary onboarding experience to build loyalty.* Use AI as a strategic toolbox to free up your time for genuine, human-to-human connection.Listen to the podcast to find out more.Innovabiz Substack is a reader-supported publication.

For 30 years, Matt has been in the trenches, architecting sales and marketing systems, and our conversation was a masterclass in stripping away the noise to focus on what truly matters: genuine, human-centered connection. Matt's passion is infectious; he's a self-described "nerd" and "geek" who fell in love with the craft of marketing not as a way to make a quick buck, but as a profound way to serve people.His journey as an "accidental entrepreneur" is one many of us can relate to. What began as a fascination with the early internet, a technology he knew would change the world, became a career-defining mission. The 2008 recession, which cost him his stable job, became the catalyst that pushed him all-in. It was a decision, as he puts it, that was made for him, leading him to discover that his true calling was helping businesses navigate the intimidating world of technology to build something truly meaningful.The "Forest for the Trees" Marketing MistakeOne of the biggest takeaways for me was Matt's frustration with how many businesses "can't see the forest for the trees." They get so fixated on the deliverable—the shiny new website, the social media campaign—that they completely lose sight of the bigger picture. A website, he rightly argues, is just a tool. If it's disconnected from the fundamental "DNA of the brand" and fails to make an emotional connection, it's not going to deliver a return on investment.This is where so many marketing efforts fall flat. Companies start with the what—"we need a website"—instead of the who and the why. They fail to ask the critical questions about how this tool will connect to their dream customer and serve the core mission of the company. It's a powerful reminder to always start with the end in mind: a deeper relationship with the people you aim to serve.Decoding the "Reptile Brain": The Real Secret to Connecting with Your Dream CustomerSo, how do we build that connection? According to Matt, it starts by getting under the hood and understanding the "reptile brain." All purchase decisions, he explained, are made from this primal place that is driven by pain, pleasure, and survival. We then use our logical brain to justify the decision we've already made emotionally. This is why a simple demographic profile of your customer just doesn't cut it.The real secret sauce is digging into the psychographics through tools like an empathy map. What are your dream customer's hidden fears? What frustrations keep them awake at night? When you can poke that pain, rub salt in the wound, and then offer a genuine solution, you're not just selling; you're connecting on a level that builds profound trust and loyalty.AI: The Planet's Most Powerful Toolbox (Handle with Care)Our conversation naturally turned to AI, a technology Matt sees as being just as transformative as the early internet. He views it as the most powerful toolbox on the planet, an incredible asset for saving time and creating efficiency. However, he offered a crucial warning: a tool is only as good as the person wielding it. He sees too many people using AI as a crutch for laziness, forgetting the timeless fundamentals of human psychology.As Matt bluntly puts it, "garbage in, garbage out." If your prompts are lazy and you don't understand the core principles of your brand and your customer, the AI will produce junk. The real skill is learning how to communicate with the technology to make you a more effective, articulate, and strategic thinker, freeing you up to do the high-value, human-centric work you love.Your Greatest Differentiator: The "Whites of Their Eyeballs" Onboarding ExperienceIn an age of automation, Matt argues that the path to differentiation lies in doing the things that don't scale. How do you create an experience your customers can't forget if they tried? You go old-school. He shared the wonderfully simple yet profound example of sending a handwritten note. In a world of emails and DMs, a physical, personal touch stands out and shows you genuinely care.This philosophy extends to the entire onboarding experience. Instead of seeing the transaction as the end of the journey, we need to create a legendary first impression. Sending a small, thoughtful gift basket or simply picking up the phone creates an emotional connection that AI can't replicate. It's about seeing the "whites of their eyeballs" and treating every customer like a VIP.Closing the Sale is Just the Starting LineThis leads perfectly to one of Matt's core beliefs: closing the sale isn't the end of the relationship; it's the starting line. Too many businesses are so fixated on acquisition that they neglect their most precious asset: their existing customers. He beautifully compared the business-customer relationship to his own 20-year marriage, emphasizing that it requires a lifelong commitment.The goal should be to constantly woo your customers and try to "out-serve" them. When you adopt this mindset, you shift from a transactional model to a relational one. The focus moves from what you can get from the customer to how deeply you can serve them, which is the foundation of any thriving, sustainable business.From Reach to Retention: Unlocking the Gold Mine in Your Existing Customer BaseMatt ties all of this together in his holistic "RACK" framework, which stands for Reach, Attract, Convert, and Keep. That last letter, K, is the one most businesses forget. It costs seven to twelve times more to acquire a new customer than to keep an existing one, yet so many of us pour all our energy into the top of the funnel.Your current customers are a literal "gold mine" of opportunity, not just for repeat business but for referrals and invaluable feedback. By focusing on that final step—by obsessing over your dream customer's dream customer—you create a virtuous cycle of service and value that becomes the ultimate engine for growth.In Summary: Matt Stanley delivers a powerful and passionate call to action for every entrepreneur. In a world increasingly dominated by technology, our greatest strength and differentiator will always be our humanity. By understanding the deep emotional drivers of our customers, creating unforgettable experiences, and committing to serving them for life, we can build businesses that not only thrive but also make a genuine impact.The Buzz - Our Innovation RoundHere are Matt's answers to the questions of our innovation round.

A pivotal moment in his career came when a seventh-grader hacked all the school district's websites where he worked. Driven by what he called professional and ethical anger, Matt walked into his boss's office and successfully campaigned to take over webmaster duties to fix the problem and ensure it never happened again.* He is a proud, unashamed "geek and nerd" of the original internet era. Matt enthusiastically self-identifies as a "geek and nerd" and takes pride in his long history with technology. He taught himself HTML in 1995 by reverse-engineering source code simply because he thought the internet was the "coolest thing" he had ever seen, long before it was a viable career path.* He recently moved his 13-year-old business back into a bedroom of his house. After more than a decade of commuting and paying for an external office, Matt realized the reasons for it were no longer relevant. He made the practical, human-scale decision to move the entire operation back home to gain more flexibility and reduce overhead, a very relatable move in today's world.Ready to move beyond just creating content and start creating real connection?In the Age of AI, the future belongs to those who can amplify human wisdom.

Carl and Mike close out the show with their final thoughts on reports of Casey Washington not practicing today due to a concussion and Drake London and Darnell Mooney being in practice and reportedly looking good, however status for Sunday not yet confirmed. They also note Raheem Morris stating that the kicking competition/workouts will continue all week before a decision is going to be made for Sunday against the Vikings. They then discuss why they are in agreement that while it is good the Falcons were in the top five of pressure rating in Week 1, they must be able to convert that into more than one sack.

Steve Koenig says the focus on Salesforce (CRM) was "all about guidance," which didn't deliver enough for investors.

Toxic stress isn't just having too much to do—it's getting stuck in the Freeze Response, and this can fuel depression. When overwhelmed by stress, trauma, or global problems, our brain may default to the freeze response—shutting down, avoiding, or numbing out. While this can feel comforting short-term, over time it dysregulates the nervous system, increases cortisol, and fuels anxiety and depression. Stress is meant to mobilize us to act; suppressing that drive makes it toxic. Small, purposeful actions restore flow—re-engaging the prefrontal cortex, calming the limbic system, and activating the ventral vagus nerve. This is where service for mental health shines: helping others boosts dopamine, oxytocin, and resilience, breaking the freeze cycle. Acts of kindness, whether raking a neighbor's yard, volunteering, or donating, create the “helper's high” and increase well-being. Service brings purpose, which turns discomfort into joy. Even brief, local, face-to-face kindness reduces loneliness and strengthens connection. You don't have to solve everything—consistent small actions aligned with your values can transform toxic stress into healthy engagement, proving that even little ripples can change the world.

If you've ever been asked, “what makes you different from everyone else in your industry?” …and your brain immediately went to: “Well, I really care about my clients.”You're not alone — I hear this all the time. And I want to help you get deeper and dig down to the *real* thing that separates you from everyone else in your industry.Summary: Because here's the thing, caring about your clients is important (of course it is). But that's the baseline. Your dream clients already expect you to care. What actually makes you stand out is the way you connect with them, the way you anticipate their hesitations, and the way you make them feel safe and understood before they've even reached out to you.In this episode, we're talking about how to uncover your real differentiator and how to start creating content that makes your clients say, “Oh my gosh, she gets me.”Inside this episode, we're covering:Why “I care more” isn't the thing that will set you apart (and what actually will)Two main types of service providers/niches — and how to shift your messaging depending on which bucket you fall intoWhy generic, vague content isn't making you more sales — and how to swap it for content that feels like you're reading your client's mind (and has them instantly knowing you're the one for them)Loved the episode?

In this episode of Real Estate Success: The Whissel Way, hosts Tad Murroughs and Bryan Koci dive deep into the art and science of real estate phone scripts. Tad shares his unique perspective as someone who transitioned from being an agent to an Inside Sales Associate (ISA), explaining how consistency and psychology make the difference when working leads. The discussion covers everything from how to open a call, frame conversations, uncover client motivation, handle objections, and confidently ask for the appointment. Agents will walk away with proven frameworks, actionable scripts, and a mindset shift that makes prospecting less intimidating and far more effective.

Email marketing isn't dead — it's thriving. In fact, for every $1 spent, businesses see an average return of $36–$40. In this episode of the Lead Gen HQ Podcast, Alex Oliveira breaks down how to build an email funnel that works — from irresistible lead magnets to nurturing sequences that educate and build trust, to conversion emails that turn prospects into customers. Alex also shares why Fortune 500 companies have embraced email automation, and why many small businesses are still leaving money on the table by ignoring the #1 ROI marketing channel.

Why great presentations don't get you clients You finally nailed the presentation. Or the podcast interview. Or the workshop. You prepped for days, your hair looked good, your message was clear— …and then nothing happened. No new clients. No one followed up. Sound familiar? In this episode of the Raving Coaches Podcast, I break down why most coaches leave opportunity on the table by skipping the one thing that matters most: smart next steps. There are too many myths out there about How to Design Smart Coaching Funnels That Actually Convert. It this episode we expose a few of them.  You'll learn: Why $24 and $100 offers rarely lead to $1,000 coaching clients How to build trust instead of just giving more information The mistake I made by giving too much too soon—and what I do now instead If your quiz, freebie, or workshop isn't converting, this is the missing piece. It's Step 5 in the 6-step series to build a profitable coaching business.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by Taylor from GemmaintheRough (on Instagram and TikTok) to talk about her journey as a charismatic, non-denominational Christian leading worship at her church to a full-blown conversion to Catholicism. Taylor's story is amazing as she asks incredible questions about how and why her non-denominational church worshipped the way they did – and how the Early Church worshipped differently!How could they have weekly "altar calls" without an altar? How could they claim to "worship" God without offering any kind of sacrifice in the biblical pattern? This and so much more makes up Taylor's awesome conversion story. She is cordial, enthusiastic, and so articulate. You don't want to miss this episode.For more from Taylor find her on Instagram and TikTok.Send your feedback to cordialcatholic@gmail.com.

If your business is struggling, can you save it by turning it into a nonprofit? Short answer: probably not. It's Jess Birken here, and I'm back with my co-host Meghan tackling a super common question from business owners who think running a nonprofit might be an easier path. Real Listener Question: "I'm an instructor at a small figure skating school. It's been around for 30 years, but we're not making ends meet. The current owner doesn't want to run it anymore. Can we convert it into a nonprofit so we don't have to make a profit or have an owner?" We hear this one a lot. A business isn't working, and people assume nonprofit status will solve everything. I mean, it's right in the name – you don't have to make a profit, right?! Meghan and I walk through why this logic doesn't hold up, the realities of converting to nonprofit status (hint: you can't), and what it really takes to start and sustain a nonprofit. If you're dreaming about skipping taxes and raking in grants, this episode will help you get real about what actually works. What You'll Learn: Why you can't convert a for-profit business into a nonprofit What nonprofit status actually means and why it's not a business model Why fundraising isn't a magic solution How conflicts of interest complicate nonprofit governance What to do before starting a nonprofit if you're serious about it Why starting a nonprofit requires a plan, not just a tax filing What to think about if your org isn't financially viable right now Bottom line: Nonprofit status isn't a quick fix. If your current business model isn't working, you need to solve that problem first — not just switch IRS categories and hope for the best.

In this episode, I reveal a powerful and refreshingly different approach to launching: paid workshops that deliver massive value and real results. I shared how this strategy helped me to achieve a 25% conversion rate, outperforming many traditional launch methods. Rather than running standard webinars or free masterclasses, I focused on creating a high-impact, paid experience that dives deep into a specific piece of a larger offer. This not only attracts more committed attendees but also lays the groundwork for better engagement and sales. If you're a course creator, membership site owner, or coach, this episode is packed with actionable insights to help you create a more authentic, profitable, and connection-driven launch strategy. KEY TAKEAWAYS COVERED IN THE PODCAST Paid Workshops Attract More Committed Leads Charging for your workshop (even a small amount) helps filter for serious, engaged participants—resulting in higher-quality leads and better conversion rates than free webinars or masterclasses. Depth Creates Trust and Sales By focusing your workshop on one specific, valuable topic, you can go deep and deliver real results. This builds trust and positions your offer as the natural next step, making selling feel seamless and aligned. A Launch is an Experience, Not Just an Event Theresa emphasizes that a successful launch should feel like a guided journey for your audience. Strong community support, intentional content, and a structured experience all work together to increase connection—and conversions. If you enjoyed this episode then please feel free to go and share it on your social media or head over to Apple podcasts or Spotify and give me a review, I would be so very grateful.

Do you want to create content that will actually attract the right audience?“Well, of course, Paul!”, right?Then you need to be intentional with your conversations.A lot of us put random content out there just to get something, anything out!Or we get overwhelmed and don't do anything at all because,in the moment,we're busy trying to create this perfect thing, something that we think might be relevant and we end up freezing up.Instead of doing either of those things, we need to give ourselves time to be intentional and plan out what we're saying.The key is looking at our potential clients, the people that are going to buy our products or services and figuring out what is relevant to them. Then, instead of putting randomness out into the world, we can have clear intentional conversations with them. So, take the time, map it out and give yourself space to be intentional.How can you be more intentional with your conversations?Resources:Adaptive Marketing Program - The Adaptive Marketing Program is an exclusive opportunity for online business owners, coaches, course creators, and membership site owners to play bigger and bolder in their business and explode their bank account with more clients!For a list of our resources & recommendations visit: https://onlinemarketingpodcast.com/learn-with-paul-melissa/Connect with us on social!Instagram: @realpaulpruitt & @realmelissapruitt Facebook: @realpaulpruitt & @realmelissapruitt

Today's Topics: 1) Gospel - Matthew 17:22-27 - As Jesus and His disciples were gathering in Galilee, Jesus said to them, "The Son of Man is to be handed over to men, and they will kill Him, and He will be raised on the third day." And they were overwhelmed with grief. When they came to Capernaum, the collectors of the temple tax approached Peter and said, "Does not your Teacher pay the temple tax?" "Yes," he said. When he came into the house, before he had time to speak, Jesus asked him, "What is your opinion, Simon? From whom do the kings of the earth take tolls or census tax? From their subjects or from foreigners?" When he said, "From foreigners," Jesus said to him, "Then the subjects are exempt. But that we may not offend them, go to the sea, drop in a hook, and take the first fish that comes up. Open its mouth and you will find a coin worth twice the temple tax. Give that to them for Me and for you.” Memorial of Saint Clare, Virgin Saint Clare, pray for us!
