The journey to a calm, profitable business in the AI age We're building a mini-AI media and software empire at Every.  Today on AI & I, Brandon Gell joins the show to turn the tables on me and act as podcast host to explore what we're doing as a company, how we got here, and where we're going. Brandon is Every's first entrepreneur in residence, and he was the perfect person to host, because he's one of the key reasons for our recent acceleration. Before joining Every, Brandon was the cofounder and CEO of Clyde, a startup that helped brands launch their own insurance and warranty programs, where he raised $50 million and led a team of 100 before selling it to global insurance tech company Cover Genius in early 2023. In this episode, he interviews me about how I learned to code in middle school, how I built and sold my first startup coming out of college, and how it all led to Every. We also talk about Brandon's story. He joined Every just four months ago—and it feels like we've done the work of years since. We've launched two new AI products, an incredible amount of great writing, a new course, and more. We get into: My candid thoughts on entrepreneurship in the AI age—including why you should ship fast, and how not to be misled by metrics like TAM  How AI startups can find valuable niches—and live demos of our apps Spiral and Sparkle Brandon's hard-earned lessons from running a insuretech business for seven years The confusing realities of being an exited founder, and how we navigated through those times What brought Brandon to Every—including the email he sent me before joining Every's master plan and what we hope to build over the next few months and years This is a must-watch for anyone interested in building a calm, profitable business empire in the age of AI.  If you found this episode interesting, please like, subscribe, comment, and share!  Want even more?

My guest today is Drew McManus from UpStage CRM: www.upstagecrm.io  We had a great time catching up in Seattle at INTIX and now we've gone and done a podcast!  We hit on a lot of topics like what led Drew to start UpStage.  I put Drew on the spot and make him define "one size fits none". We discuss where he gets his ideas from.  Why focusing on the minimum amount of functionality is magic.  And, a lot more.  Hook up with my friends at Cover Genius in Birmingham for the Ticketing Professionals Conference.  www.CoverGenius.com I've been paying special attention to the CFAR (Cancel For Any Reason) product because the data becomes more compelling everyday.  Guests want peace of mind in their purchases and are willing to pay for it. We've seen that really clearly at the Playhouse Theatre in Ohio where 48% of guests have taken up refund protection as the weather can be challening in the winter.  The idea applies to health, economic issues, and THE WEATHER!  So talk to Joe, Hayley, Chris, and the team.  Visit my website at www.DaveWakeman.com  You can go to my shop and get a "Pick My Brain" session.  Keep an eye out for workshops in NYC, London, Sydney, and more!  Get 'Talking Tickets' for my weekly ticketing thoughts: https://talkingtickets.substack.com Get 'The Business of Value' and learn strategy, branding, and marketing: https://businessofvalue.substack.com  Rate the pod!

I have Mark Herschberg back today to talk about his new app, Brain Bump.  This is a really cool tool that lets you bring learning with you wherever you are.

As we get more data, we are finding that peace of mind is an even bigger factor in people's purchase decisions than it has been at any point since we've started measuring the number.  At the Playhouse Theatre in Ohio, we've seen 48% of ticket buyers take up refund protection.  This is stuff to pay attention to.  Hook up with Joe, Hayley, Chris and the Cover Genius team in Birmingham at the Ticketing Professionals Conference.  Visit my website at www.DaveWakeman.com.

I'm talking with Paul Bailey from Halo in Bristol, UK today.  We are discussing brand and this is a great one because we set out to hit on a few really important topics: Research Brand Purpose Top of Funnel Activity Paul was kind enough to come on to be the first guest to talk about brand exclusively so that I would have some conversations that I directed to include as resources for my upcoming applied brand management class for executive MBAs.  We hit on the 95/5 rule that comes out of LinkedIn's research. The Long and Short of It. The challenge of last click attribution. Brand as a tool to generate future demand...and a lot more.  Check out my friends at Cover Genius: www.CoverGenius.com  The CFAR product is very helpful to folks now because peace of mind is showing up in purchase habits around the world meaning uncertainty is showing up as a driver for customers holding off from buying their tickets/trips/entertainment.  https://covergenius.com/any-reason/ Visit my website at www.DaveWakeman.com.

My final conversation from the floor of INTIX at the Booking Protect booth.  This time I catch up with friend of the podcast, Christy Grantham.  We talk about why she goes to INTIX.  Christy talks about how INTIX helps her learn about new tech, new ideas, and avoid burnout.  One of the important things Christy learned was around the shift from "no refunds, no exchanges".  She also highlights the importance of meeting the customer where they are. Giving people more options gives you a higher NPS number... We also hit on how Christy could do customer tags right away in her hotel room...we will have to check in later to see if she followed through.  Give this one a listen and let me know what you think.  Check out my friends at Cover Genius.

I did some quick podcast conversations at INTIX that I loosely called, "8 minutes at INTIX" from the Cover Genius booth.  This first one is with Angela Higgins. Along with Jo Michel, Angela does the Ticketing Professionals Conference of Australia.  The conference is in October this year. Check out my friends at Cover Genius: www.CoverGenius.com We did a really interesting panel at INTIX with Jo-Ann from AudienceView, Kelley from Playhouse Theatre, and Joe from Cover Genius that focused on how much embedded protection helps accelerate the customer journey.  Along the way, we uncovered that 48% of people are buying refund protection in at Playhouse right now. That's a number that points out that people want peace of mind and they are willing to pay for it.  We also found out that 61% of people are buying strictly for the content and that pricing is a secondary or non-factor in the buying journey.  And, we uncovered that people feel better about the entire process when they are offered refund protection and this shows up with big jumps in NPS score.  Find out more at www.CoverGenius.com  Get my newsletter, 'Talking Tickets' at https://talkingtickets.substack.com  Visit my website at www.DaveWakeman.com  I'll be traveling this year with upcoming dates for workshops in DC, NYC, London, and Sydney.

REPOST WITH REPAIRED FILE Totally new idea this week.  Chris Furnell offered up the idea of a conversation centered entirely on the process of change and making change stick in our organizations.  I jumped at the chance because I've been talking with y'all about change for years.  So we dug in deep on change.  We cover things like: Dealing with constant change.  Leaders wanting to shorten the distance between ideas and results.  Why you can't "tell" someone into changing.  Why it is that old patterns die hard... And, a lot more. I'll be in Seattle from 23-26 January at INTIX. You'll see me at the Cover Genius booth on Wednesday and Thursday recording some live podcasts under the banner: "8 minutes at INTIX".  I'll also be leading a panel on Thursday at the Inspiration Stage at 10:45 AM called "Enhancing the Customer Journey with Embedded Protection". This panel will include Joe from Cover Genius, Jo-Ann from AudienceView, and a special guest! You'll learn about new data that helps understand people's purchase decision. We will also share data around people's perception of the event, pre and post purchase...and more.  Send me an email: Dave@DaveWakeman.com and I will make sure you don't miss us.  Take my pricing survey: https://forms.gle/Dc5FVHB93A9GGx9p9  Lots of interesting data about where folks are struggling with price, who makes the decision, and why the decision is being made poorly.  I'll be sharing that in the weeks ahead.  Get the 'Talking Tickets' newsletter at https://talkingtickets.substack.com Visit my website at www.DaveWakeman.com  Share!

In the second of this two-part podcast with highlights from our live event Matthew Grant looks back on the conversations Robin Merttens had on stage with Andrew Passfield (ICE Insurtech), Freddy Macnamara (Cuvva), Daniel Poole, (Cover Genius) and Adrian Davis (Stripe) at our recent London event, “Making Payments Pay: Making the Most of Payments Technologies”.   Part one looked at why the method of making and receiving payments is critical to insurers and the evolving needs of customers. This part focuses on managing the movement and financial management of money, the benefits of flexible insurance and the integral role embedded and parametric insurance plays in payment provision. Talking points include: Understanding why getting payments right must be a strategic priority for insurers How to overcome the complexity of the insurance ecosystem which often leads to fragmentation, inefficiency, greater risk and delays Stripe's payment technologies and use cases, including how it helped a delivery company earn over £100 million of additional revenue as a result of their technology systems and APIs How Tik Tok can generate underwriting returns and effective marketing strategies for insurers Who ICE InsurTech are partnering with and how its digital services are being integrated If you like what you're hearing, please leave us a review on whichever platform you use or contact Matthew Grant on LinkedIn.

“Customers are coming to expect that when they purchase a product or interact with a brand online, protection is a given”, says Darcy. Joining Cover Genius in 2018, the former lawyer shares her pivot in to the insurance sector and transition to insurtech, following varied roles with AIG, Liberty Mutual and The Hartford. Darcy explains the journey to the launch of Cover Genius and the benefit on offer from its core technology product, XCover – a global distribution platform for all lines of insurance.  “The core feature is that it's product agnostic. We can be a central integration point for a business to be able to offer any types of insurance products in any of the markets where they're doing business.” Working across a broad spectrum of sectors and with some of the world's best known brands – including Booking.com, Ryanair, Intuit, eBay, Wayfair and Amazon, Darcy outlines the advantages Cover Genius offers to customers, clients and capacity providers, as well as their approach to using anonymised data from partners.  Darcy shares her thoughts on the future of the insurance sector and discusses the value those with insurance knowledge can bring to the team, emphasising the importance of a growth mindset at all stages of a career journey.  For those looking to transition in to the insurtech space, Darcy highlights the importance of research, understanding the different value propositions on offer and building a network. “Once you know people, they'll want to help you out. If opportunity doesn't exist today, it might in a year or two.” Connect with Darcy Shapiro on https://www.linkedin.com/in/darcy-shapiro-581a23a9/ (LinkedIn), email darcy@covergenius.com or find out more about https://covergenius.com/ (Cover Genius).

Mitch Doust of Cover Genius talked with Karen Webster about how consumers would likely spend more with merchants if insurance was offered at the point of sale.

Darcy Shapiro – Director of Insurance at Cover Genius What exactly is the shape of insurance in the modern age? The best answer may be this: different. As entrepreneurs solve insurance problems in new ways, that ‘shape of insurance’ will continue to change. In this discussion, Michael interviews Darcy Shapiro, Director of Insurance at Cover Genius. Together, they explore: How the modern insurance consumer has changed—and how savvy insurance innovators can respond to that change and delight the customer and marketplace.  The tricky and challenging issue of finding a strategy for success in the modern market—and why Cover Genius is the perfect object lesson.  Darcy’s simple but clear-eyed perspective on how to create a successful launch—and how Cover Genius achieved what few insurtechs do: exponential growth with positive cash flow.  Darcy is a longtime insurance pro—The Hartford, AIG, Liberty—so she speaks the language of modern insurance.

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Pay per mile insurance is a usage-based insurance model where a driver pays only for the amount of miles driven. The price per mile is dynmically calculated and can be based off of odometer reading, GPS monitoring, or telematics data. In this episode, we hear from Austin Ledgerwood, Head of Strategic Partnerships, for Cover Genius. According to Austin, "There is always a ripple effect when change happens in an industry, and the auto and mobility space is no different. Ridesharing and peer-to-peer services have created a demand for usage-based insurance models, like pay per mile or pay as you drive, which offers drivers various incentives given how much they are driving."

This list came from Cover More, an insurance company that’s headquartered in Australia. According to its 2018 data, being denied from boarding a flight was the fastest-growing reason for an insurance claim, with instances rising a whopping 350% on the previous year. New types of claims in 2018 that didn’t exist in 2017 included “cabin confinement”, — when cruise passengers were forced to stay in their cabin due to illness, missed ports on cruise journeys. We then get into some very interesting predictions for the space in 2019. To round things off Sarah has an interview with Mitch Doust, Head of Americas for Cover Genius who gave us an overview of what Cover Genius is up to, what’s next for the company and his predictions for 2019.
