    Ralph and John return to the "performance kitchen" to unpack a radical shift in digital advertising strategy. Discover why ungated webinar content, pre-click education, and native storytelling inside ad sets are outperforming traditional funnel tactics. John breaks down how a $120 glove brand scaled with a sub-$20 CPA—without touching the campaign for over a month—and why Meta's Andromeda update is forcing advertisers to master content, not just structure. If you're still gating your best material, you're already behind. This is the future of Meta ads—and it starts with feeding the feed, not the funnel.Chapters:00:00:00 - Inside the Perpetual Traffic Machine00:00:09 - What's Cooking in the Ad Lab Today00:00:38 - Why One Ad Style Won't Cut It00:01:26 - Meta's AI Is Now Selling for You00:02:28 - Your New Ad Grid Game Plan00:04:37 - Welcome to the Performance Kitchen00:06:09 - Andromeda Changed Everything—Here's How00:10:21 - This Glove Ad Crushed It00:17:34 - Pre-Click Education = More Conversions00:19:51 - Turn Old Content into Ad Gold00:21:16 - Gated Content Is Killing Your Ads00:23:34 - Ads That Educate, Ads That Convert00:29:53 - Do Media Buyers Still Matter?00:32:58 - Scale Smart: One Campaign, No Tweaks00:39:33 - What's Next in the Ad Evolution?LINKS AND RESOURCES:Tier 11 JobsPerpetual Traffic on YouTubeTiereleven.comMongoose MediaPerpetual Traffic SurveyPerpetual Traffic WebsiteFollow Perpetual Traffic on TwitterConnect with Lauren on Instagram and Connect with Ralph on LinkedInThanks so much for joining us this week.

    On today's Wholesale Hotline Podcast (Subto Edition), Pace Morby breaks down why lowballs are necessary to run a business with deal breakdowns. Show notes -- in this episode we'll cover: Pace Morby breaks down exactly why a $315K "deal" in Mesa, AZ with a $460K ARV is actually a money-losing trap—despite a $145K spread on paper. The real math behind flipping: Pace reveals his full cost breakdown including purchase, closing, renovation, holding costs, agent commissions, and concessions—showing how thin margins kill deals. Why real estate agents label investor offers as "lowball"—and how Pace explains it's usually due to lack of investing experience, not malice. A masterclass in investor mindset: Learn to say no to bad deals, identify seller pain, and move quickly when the numbers (or motivation) don't work.   ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖ ☎️ Welcome to Wholesale Hotline & Subto Breakout✌️✌️! ☎️ Need discounts and free trials!?

    In this eye-opening episode, host Wes Read, CPA, CFP welcomes Vivek Kinra, founder and CEO of Verific, for an in-depth conversation about artificial intelligence in dentistry.The discussion starts off unscripted and fresh, as Vivek shares his unique journey from software engineering to creating multiple dental technology companies—PPO Profits and now Verific. He details how Verific uses genuine AI to tackle the notoriously complex problem of insurance verification.Together, Wes and Vivek unpack the difference between real AI applications—like machine learning and large language models—and the marketing buzzwords that many companies use to inflate their valuations.Key Points Vivek Kinra's background: Software engineer turned dental technology entrepreneur; built PPO Profits (acquired) and now leads Verific.Insurance verification problem: Decades-old challenge with no single source of truth—Verific uses AI to gather and standardize disparate data.Deterministic vs. Non-Deterministic Software:Deterministic = same output every time (ideal for appointment reminders).Non-Deterministic = varied output (necessary for natural language and understanding context).True AI examples in dentistry:Machine learning for x-rays.Large language models parsing complex insurance documents.Virtual receptionists handling natural conversations.Marketing Hype: Many companies label simple software workflows as “AI” for better valuations and branding.How to spot real AI:Does the system generate new outputs based on context and training data?Is it using models like LLMs or neural networks to understand and adapt?#DentalAI #DentalTechnology #PracticeManagement #InsuranceVerification #ArtificialIntelligence #DentalBusiness #DentalPodcast #MachineLearning #Verific #DentalInnovation #DentistryHypeVsReality #DentalSoftware #DentalBoardroomPodcast

    Summary In this episode of the Pay Play Profit podcast, Jess Stafford discusses the essential roles within a financial team for small businesses, including CPAs, EAs, bookkeepers, and accountants. She emphasizes the importance of understanding each role and how they contribute to a business's financial health. The conversation also introduces the Profit First system, a cash management strategy that prioritizes profit to ensure sustainable growth. Jess shares insights on navigating business growth, the importance of hiring the right financial professionals, and the evolving landscape of financial management in the age of AI. Takeaways Understanding the roles of financial professionals is crucial for business success. Profit First flips the traditional profit equation to prioritize profit first. Hiring the right financial team can lead to better decision-making and profitability. AI can assist in financial tasks, but human oversight is essential. Bookkeepers can provide more than just data entry; they can offer valuable insights. Planning for financial growth should start early in the business lifecycle. Not all CPAs are equipped to handle small business needs effectively. Investing in financial systems early can lead to greater clarity and control. The complexity of bookkeeping is increasing, requiring skilled professionals. Every financial decision impacts overall business profitability.

    In this episode, we chat with Katrina Nacci, a CPA based in Frankfurt, Germany who helps European companies navigate US accounting standards. Originally from Boston, Katrina describes her work as "bridging the gap with two A's" - taking companies from local European accounting to US GAAP or IFRS when they're seeking American investors or planning IPOs. After 12 years abroad and experience at PwC and in private equity, Katrina found her niche with scale-up companies in the $30-50 million revenue range. Her approach leverages clients' internal teams through collaborative "GAAP summits" where she guides finance departments through accounting differences, making the process more cost-effective than larger firms. Interestingly, Katrina often discovers companies struggle not just with accounting standard differences, but with correctly applying their current standards. She works across the UK, Germany, Netherlands and other European countries, each with their own requirements. Despite initial language barriers, Katrina has adapted to life in Europe, traveling monthly throughout the continent. She reflects on her growth from a "dorky technical accountant" to a confident business owner with a unique specialization at the intersection of European and American financial requirements.

    The Power of Teamwork in Achieving a Vision: "Both roles are as important as the other, because if the visionary has to do everything herself or himself, they're probably not going to make it happen." - Betty CollinsI'm so excited to bring you part one of our special Visionary Awards series, where we honor incredible women who have scaled their businesses and brought their visions to life. Today, I'm joined by two outstanding guests—Jill Frey, president and CEO of Cummins Facility Services, and Purba Majumder, an inspiring immigrant founder and CEO of Cybervation Inc., both of whom were finalists alongside me for the NAWBO Columbus Visionary Award.In this episode, we share our personal stories about what it really takes to scale a company, the winding journey of becoming a visionary, and why the people who support us along the way are just as important as the vision itself. We open up about our challenges, our proudest moments, and the vital roles of those who stand beside us—whether they're cheering us on, pouring into our growth, or simply helping us keep going.If you're a woman in business—whether you see yourself as a visionary or you're the one making things happen behind the scenes—there's something here for you.

Jessica breaks down how sales tax applies to non-tangible goods like SaaS products and apps, what triggers a sales tax nexus, and why ignoring it can lead to massive headaches during due diligence. She also shares insight on the best and worst states to set up your business from a tax standpoint, when to file a Voluntary Disclosure Agreement (VDA), and how to stay compliant if you're selling across borders.

    Did you hear about the guy who tried to pay his taxes with a smile? Unfortunately for him, the IRS still prefers cash.All jokes aside, failing to file your taxes for several years is no small matter—but it's not the end of the road, either. Kevin Cross joins us today with practical steps to help you get back on track.Kevin Cross is a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) who has headed CPA firms in Florida and now Georgia. He has studied the tax code extensively and specializes in representing taxpayers before the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).Start With the Present, Not the PastThe further you fall behind, the more difficult it is to catch up. But rather than beginning with the year you first missed, he recommends filing your most recent return first—say, 2024—and working backward as needed. This shows the IRS that you're attempting to come into compliance, not ignoring your obligations.Falling behind on taxes is more common than most people think. Life events like divorce, disability, job loss, or even the rise of gig work can trigger tax complications. For example, many gig workers receive a 1099 for the first time, try to file using online software, and are shocked to discover they owe thousands. Rather than seek help, they freeze—and the following year's return also goes unfiled.Of course, COVID didn't help as many people have been struggling since then to get back on track.Do You Always Have to File?A common misunderstanding is that you must always file. If you're not going to owe anything, you don't have to file. That includes many senior citizens who live solely on Social Security.However, if you're due a refund, you have up to three years to file and claim it. Miss that window, and the refund is forfeited.Importantly, there's a difference between not filing and not paying. Sometimes you don't know what you owe—or if you owe—until you file.Even if you don't owe taxes on the sale of a primary residence, for example, the IRS won't know that unless you file. If you don't, you might receive a letter saying you owe thousands in capital gains tax—money you could've avoided paying.How to Begin the ProcessIf you're unsure how many years you've missed, a good first step is to request a Wage and Income Transcript from the IRS. This document shows all your reported income—W-2s, 1099s, Social Security, retirement distributions, and more. You can request it through the IRS website by searching for “IRS wage and income transcript.”Even with transcripts in hand, deciphering them can be complicated. That's why we strongly recommend seeking help from a CPA or tax professional familiar with IRS representation. You may not know what to do with what you find. You can find a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) in your area who specializes in tax planning and preparation by going to FaithFi.com and clicking “Find a Professional”. Also, it's helpful to know that the IRS's own handbook, the Internal Revenue Manual, usually requires only the last six years of returns to be filed. That's a helpful limit for those unsure where to begin.The IRS Will Work With YouDon't let fear keep you stuck. The IRS can work with you. Options include payment plans or even an offer in compromise, which may reduce your total tax liability.Filing late taxes doesn't have to be terrifying. With the right help and a step-by-step plan, you can get back on track—and even experience peace of mind. The IRS just wants to see you trying. Start with today, and take it one step at a time.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I have a TIAA retirement account from my husband's time as an adjunct professor at a local community college. It's a small amount. As I'm 76, I'm required to set aside a certain amount each year. I would like to give this to my son now so that those amounts can stay in the account and start accruing interest. Can I do that?We have a credit card balance of $15,000 with an interest rate of 11%. We try to pay $2,000 a month, but the balance keeps increasing. Part of the reason is that our 29-year-old daughter, who lives and works in London, has a card on our account. We initially gave her the card for emergencies and plane tickets home, but she's using it for other expenses, such as occasional Ubers and travel. We want to pay off this card, but we're making no progress.
