Most lawyers focus on getting more leads while 97% are losing money at the most critical step: intake conversion. If you're not responding in under 1 minute, following up 12+ times in the first week, or using AI-powered personalization, you're already behind.Sam Mollaei and Neil Tyra reveal the Ultimate Intake Conversion Checklist—the exact strategies top firms use to double client sign-ups in 30-60 days. From weekend coverage strategies to ChatGPT-powered personalization, this episode stops leads from slipping through the cracks.Key Takeaways from Sam and Neil:1. Weekend and Off-Hours CoverageEnsure virtual intakers call leads between 5-9 PM and on weekends, using this "blue ocean" strategy to maximize availability and significantly boost sign-ups.2. Respond to Leads Within 1 MinuteCall leads immediately—waiting even five minutes lowers conversion rates—while automating instant text messages to acknowledge inquiries and maintain engagement.3. Consistent and Persistent Follow-Up StrategyCall leads at least 12 times in the first week, with three daily calls for the first three days, reinforced by automated texts, emails, and personalized video messages.4. Dedicated Intake Team Focused on Lead ConversionUse trained intake specialists—not general virtual receptionists—to handle lead qualification, consultations, and follow-ups, ensuring higher conversions and better client experiences.5. Leverage Technology for Automation and TrackingUse a CRM with automated workflows for lead distribution, reminders, and follow-ups, while tracking "speed to lead" metrics to prevent delays and optimize intake performance.6. Qualify and Personalize Lead Interactions With ChatGPTFeed lead data into AI tools like ChatGPT via Zapier to generate hyper-personalized initial texts that reference case details, building trust, improving response rates, and increasing conversions."A lot of people underestimate the work it takes to make intake successful…. It's a lot of work, and it's ongoing—it doesn't end." — Sam Mollaei"Whenever we do that near-immediate response, almost the first words out of the prospective client's mouth are—'Oh my God...thanks for calling me back so quickly.' It's just—they're not used to that type of customer response—and that sets you apart from people who don't." — Neil Tyra

In this episode of the Veterinary Marketing Podcast, I'm diving deep into what it really takes to run successful Facebook (Meta) ads for your veterinary practice. Over the past decade, I've managed millions of dollars in ad spend for local businesses, and I've seen firsthand how tricky Meta ads can be for vets. Unlike e-commerce, where you can track every sale, veterinary services have a much more complex path from ad click to booked appointment. That's why I'm breaking down the real-world strategies, common pitfalls, and proven tactics that actually work—so you don't waste your budget or your time. We'll start by talking about why Meta ads are uniquely challenging for veterinary practices, especially when it comes to tracking results and building the right marketing infrastructure. I'll share why organic content is absolutely essential before you ever spend a dollar on ads, and how to use Facebook and Instagram as top-of-funnel platforms to build awareness and nurture potential clients. We'll also cover the impact of iOS 14 privacy changes, how to set up tracking properly, and when Facebook ads are (and aren't) a good fit for your practice. Plus, I'll walk you through audience targeting, creative strategies, budgeting, and the importance of testing and iterating your campaigns. To bring it all together, I'll share real-world success stories from practices that have launched grand openings, promoted events, and introduced new services using Meta ads. We'll also talk about the long-term growth strategies you need—like CRM integration, email nurturing, and retargeting—to turn leads into loyal clients. By the end of this episode, you'll have a clear roadmap for using Facebook and Instagram ads effectively, with actionable steps you can start implementing right away. Whether you're just getting started or looking to take your ad campaigns to the next level, this episode is packed with insights to help your veterinary practice grow.

Welcome to The K9PT Academy podcast, the only podcast in veterinary rehabilitation & physical therapy that focuses on helping business owners and entrepreneurs build and scale a profitable and successful canine rehabilitation business! In this episode, we dive into a vital topic that often feels overwhelming for many canine rehab business owners — understanding your business metrics and financial structure. Dr Francisco shares the exact framework he uses (and teaches) to break down financials, simplify budgeting, and understand profitability without getting lost in the weeds. Whether you're solo and mobile or run a larger facility with a team, these insights will help you feel more confident navigating the numbers side of your business. Listen to the full episode as we discuss: Different business models = different metrics: Profit margins and financial expectations will vary greatly depending on whether you're a solo mobile provider or running a larger clinic with staff and overhead. Four main expense categories to track: Break down your budget into overhead, payroll, administrative/operational, and marketing to simplify tracking and avoid overwhelm. Ideal budget allocation framework: Aim for 10% overhead, 50–55% payroll, 15–20% admin, and 5–10% marketing to maintain a healthy 20% profit margin. Include yourself in the numbers: Don't forget to calculate your owner salary in payroll and understand if you're measuring profit before or after owner compensation and debt payments. Payroll is your biggest investment: Especially as you grow — plan for sustainable clinician and admin compensation while keeping overall costs in check. Marketing fuels the business: Invest in consistent, strategic marketing to grow sustainably — and expect higher spend early on or during growth phases. Profit is not a bad word: Profit allows your business to sustain, grow, and serve you and your community better — don't be afraid to make money.

What if the secret to fundraising success wasn't about doing more, but about focusing on what truly matters? Matt Bitzegaio, co-founder and CEO of DonorDock, challenges the "more is better" mindset that leaves so many nonprofit professionals exhausted and overwhelmed.DonorDock, combines a powerful CRM platform with a methodology that helps organizations strengthen donor relationships without burning out their teams. Matt shares how he's witnessed countless nonprofits struggle with the same challenges: growing to-do lists, disconnected tools, and never enough time. His response wasn't just to build better technology, but to fundamentally rethink how nonprofits approach relationship building. Welcome to the Agency for Change podcast.

Chris Redmond is back on The RAG for the third time and his story keeps getting better.When I first interviewed Chris in 2019, he'd just gone fully remote and was chasing a digital nomad lifestyle with no fixed office. At the time, I thought he was mad.Then COVID hit, and while the rest of the industry scrambled, Chris and his team were already built for the new world.Fast forward to now, Redholt is a retained headhunting firm running at 60 percent profit with just 8 people. Chris lives in Dubai, has transformed his health (losing 35kg in six months), and is building towards something much bigger: a business that runs without him and can one day be sold.In this episode, we cover:His unique forensic recruitment modelWhat it takes to move from lifestyle business to scalable businessThe pressure of being the only BD engine in your companyWhy personal reinvention is key to professional growthAnd how social media is helping drive both brand and client retentionWatch the episode live on my LinkedIn this Wednesday at 12 pm or catch up afterwards wherever you get your podcasts.If you're a founder thinking about long-term value and lifestyle alignment, this one's not to be missed.Watch our ten-minute video on “The most profitable way to grow your recruitment agency in 2025” here: https://hubs.ly/Q03lBpYC0Apply to be on the next RAG season here: https://hubs.ly/Q03yjlLd0 Chapters00:00 Introduction to The Rag Podcast03:23 Chris Redmond's Journey and Business Evolution10:13 Red Hole's Unique Recruitment Methodology17:56 Scalability and Future Plans for Red Hole22:02 The Impact of Moving to Dubai29:06 Personal Transformation and Health Journey50:36 The Power of Social Media in Business01:04:30 Future Vision and Exit Strategy for Red Hole__________________________________________Episode Sponsor: AtlasYour memory isn't perfect.

Manual processes that needed you to input specific information, based on specific questions and answers. But what about all the other conversations you're having every single day? Atlas isn't an ATS or a CRM. It's an Intelligent Business Platform that helps you perform 10X better than you could on your own. How?

Advisors once lived by the phone, a notepad, and a stack of prospecting lists.Now? AI, CRM systems, and customized pools are shaping the way advice is delivered, and relationships are built.This week, Colin continues his conversation with Greg Kraminsky in part two of their reflection on 30+ years of change in the investment world.

In today's episode of iGaming Daily, SBC's Managing Editor, Jessica Welman, is joined by Motti Colman, VP of Revenue at Optimove, the podcast's main sponsor, for an analysis of player behaviour in the sweepstakes versus real money online casino sectors. With a focus on practical outcomes over legal definitions, the duo explores how each gaming model attracts and retains players, using exclusive Optimove data and a detailed case study that spans global iGaming markets.Motti highlights how Optimove's advanced benchmarking and predictive modelling shed light on key differences in player value, onboarding success, and behavioural trends. Listeners will learn how the regulated online casino market sets the gold standard, while the sweepstakes model, despite its clever “scratch card” style redemption mechanics, faces significant hurdles in conversion rates due to complex onboarding and player skepticism. A critical takeaway? The importance of Day One. As the hosts reveal, player actions in the first 24 hours are often the most predictive of long-term engagement and lifetime value. While sweepstakes players may start slow, Optimove's research shows that by Day 28, they can match or even exceed online casino players in loyalty and activity, provided CRM strategies focus on guiding players through an intensive 'incubation' period.

These days, it's harder than ever for marginalized buyers to break into the market. Prices are high, lending rules are tighter, and misinformation is everywhere. The path to homeownership can feel impossible. Agents aren't off the hook either. With all the changes to buyer representation and compensation, agents are being asked to prove their value in every single deal, while trying to serve clients who need more help than ever. That's where Midwest Home M@tch comes in. We built an AI-powered referral network that connects agents with pre-approved, ready-to-go buyers. Especially those who qualify for down payment assistance, employer housing support, parishioner programs, and more.  These aren't just leads,  they're matches. And the system is built to help agents close deals that would otherwise fall through the cracks. What are some of the things you'll get with Midwest Home M@tch? How is this referral network different?  In this episode, I'm joined by creative design, brand development expert, and my partner in Midwest Home M@tch, Anita Clinton.  We get into how this all works, how agents can plug in, and why the future of real estate might just be about matching people to money, not just homes.   If real estate agents implemented down payment assistance, 30% of deals that are canceled would be salvageable. -Marki Lemons Ryhal   Things You'll Learn In This Episode  The real estate anointing advantage How can you tell if a property has access to $25K in down payment assistance? How can you use that to market the home and keep your seller's concessions at zero? Reverse prospecting with precision What if you could clone a listing, test buyer demand across multiple price points, and already know what buyers are searching for before you even list? AI automation that actually closes deals How is Midwest Home M@tch using AI automation to pre-qualify buyers, trigger CRM workflows, and deliver leads with signed buyer agreements, all before they reach you? From overlooked to oversubscribed How can we stack grants, gift funds, and employer housing programs to revive up to 30% of canceled deals?   Guest Bio With almost two decades of creative design, brand development, marketing, editorial, and business development experience, Anita “AC” Clinton is the go-to person for all aspects of purpose. She is passionate about helping individuals use their talent(s) and experience to unlock their true calling, know where they fit in the world, and be who they are meant to be.

It's not just about clean CRM—it's about truth in the funnel.Sales, product, and marketing must operate as one team. Siloed GTM leads to chaos and churn.Product-led growth doesn't eliminate sales—it elevates it. The handoff must feel seamless to the customer.Scalable sales = process + mindset. Don't build your GTM around a hero rep.Truthful forecasting starts with sales conversations. If reps are sandbagging or guessing, fix the culture first.Curiosity beats control. The best leaders build cultures where feedback flows freely across GTM.Guest ResourcesWebsite -

Guest: Vaughn English   Guest Bio: Vaughn English is a growth-focused sales leader with over 10 years of experience driving revenue across industries including digital marketing, 3D visualization, tourism, and insurance. He has a proven track record of building high-performing outreach strategies, leading cross-functional teams, and closing complex B2B deals. Vaughn specializes in leveraging CRM platforms, marketing automation, and creative campaigns to engage prospects and accelerate the sales cycle. From launching national tourism campaigns to scaling 3D content solutions for enterprise clients, he brings a consultative approach that aligns client goals with actionable solutions. Vaughn thrives at the intersection of strategy, creativity, and execution, consistently turning opportunities into lasting partnerships. ​ Key Points: Background and Path to Sales Started in theater; transitioned to sales due to communication skills and confidence. First job: selling DirecTV inside Costco, a challenging experience that taught resilience. Gradually moved into more prestigious roles, now at Fracture.   Role at Fracture Tasked with building the B2B infrastructure from scratch, including identifying the ideal customer profile (ICP), creating case studies, lookbooks, product menus, and developing marketing and outreach processes.   Finding the Ideal Customer Profile (ICP) Initially targeted hospitality, but realized sales cycles are very long. Exploring design firms and higher education as more promising ICPs. Higher ed (e.g., Boston College) often needs ongoing art installations, recognition plaques, etc., making them strong repeat buyers.   CRM and Sales Technology Strong proponent of using CRMs despite challenges. Believes CRMs are essential for organizing contacts and outreach, launching automated email campaigns, and tracking sales activity.    Sales Outreach Strategy Focuses heavily on cold email campaigns. Personalized and well-researched. Uses intent data (from sources like ZoomInfo, Bombora) to identify companies showing buying signals. Example: campaign to Ben & Jerry's using their "Flavor Graveyard" as a custom subject line. Warm leads via email before calling; cautious about cold calling personal cell phones (though interviewer disagrees).   Team Dynamics and Management Style Small team (essentially 2 people); the other focuses on account management. Balances trust with light micromanagement, uses CRM visibility (e.g., BCCs, task tracking) to monitor activity, steps in when new leads aren't followed up quickly enough. Believes in hiring people he can trust to reduce the need for hovering.   Challenges and Learnings Struggles with ensuring consistent follow-up on new leads while handling large ongoing projects. Building out processes and infrastructure in real-time while scaling the B2B arm. Emphasizes that real ICP identification comes through direct conversations and testing.

On this episode, I talk about something that comes up all the time in my coaching sessions with MBA students—and that's networking. I've talked about it before on the podcast on episode 1202 "Reframe the way you think about networking and asking for help" I'll drop a link in the show notes.  I encourage you to go back and give that one a listen.   As generative AI has proliferated on both sides of the job search with candidates using it to submit more and more customized applications, and recruiters using it to filter through piles of hundreds or thousands of applicants, relationships are once again increasingly important in learning about opportunities before they are public, and securing interview invites.   So many job seekers have what I call the hunter/gatherer mindset in their job search: they scour job boards for opportunities, and submit applications.  I would encourage anyone in an active job search -- or anyone who thinks they might be in an active job search in the next 6 to 18 months, to adopt what I call the gardener mindset.   Let's dig in. (no pun intended)   If you're like many MBA students—or honestly, professionals at any stage—you may have a complicated relationship with networking. You know you're supposed to do it. You've heard it's important. But maybe it feels awkward. Transactional. A little sleezy even. I picture Christian Bale as Patrick Bateman in American Psycho with his heavy-bond embossed business card.   Maybe you don't want to “bother” people. Or maybe you're waiting until you have a clear goal or ask before reaching out. I get it. That hesitation is totally normal. But here's the thing—networking is not a one-time transaction. It's not about reaching out only when you need something. It's not just about collecting contacts on linkedin like pokemon cards. Networking—effective, sustainable, authentic networking—is about building relationships over time. That's where the gardener mindset comes in.   Imagine you're a gardener. You don't just toss seeds into the dirt one day and expect to harvest a salad the next.   You prepare the soil. You plant a variety of seeds. You water them. You protect them from frost. You wait. You come back to check on them. Sometimes they sprout. Sometimes they don't. Different plants mature on different schedules. Some may require years before you are ready to harvest anything.   The same is true for relationships in your professional life. When you meet someone at an event, or reach out for a coffee chat—you're planting a seed. Having that conversation is watering it. Following up with an authentic note is watering it. Another follow up after you took some advice they gave you… is watering it Sharing an article or podcast with them, or  an update on your journey—that's watering it.   When you refer someone else to them, or cheer on their LinkedIn update—that's tending the garden.   You're not always sure which seeds will grow or when they'll bloom. But if you keep showing up, nurturing those relationships, you'll start to see the garden take shape. And here's the beautiful thing: relationships compound over time. Opportunities, referrals, mentorship—they often emerge from the people you've been in touch with for years, not just weeks. But you have to invest in those relationships before you “need” them.     So how do you network like a gardener? It's like the old saying, when's the best time to plant a tree? 20 years ago. When's the second best time? Today.  So Here are a few quick tips: Start early.  Plant the seeds now. Just like a health garden will be diverse, you need a diverse strategy: reach out to current contacts, reconnect with old contacts, attend events to make new contacts. Be curious, not transactional. Ask questions about their path. Their decision points. What they've learned. I love Steve Dalton's TIARA framework for informational interviews, that stands for asking questions about Trends, Insights, Advice, Recommendations, and Assignments they are working on. Listen to my conversation with Steven, I'll drop a link in the show notes. Follow up thoughtfully. A quick note saying “Thanks again, I found your advice helpful” and specifically name what was helpful! A personal message -- it doesn't have to be long -- will go a long way. Give back when you can. Share an article. Introduce someone. Celebrate their wins. Ask them if there is anything you can do for them in return. That kind of reciprocity can build rapport. Track your outreach. Not to be mechanical—but to stay organized. Relationships grow with attention. Especially when you are in a more active phase of your search, develop a system for tracking your contacts. This can be as simple as a spreadsheet, or something more robust like a CRM.   Networking isn't about having the perfect pitch--or heavy bond, embossed business card. It's about building trust, credibility, and rapport. It's about investing in people and communities over time—knowing that some of those relationships will blossom into opportunities in ways you can't predict right now. So as you move through your MBA, or any career transition, I invite you to think like a gardener. Be patient. Be intentional. Keep planting. Keep watering.   And trust that the harvest will come.

How do you keep innovating and disrupting when you're already the incumbent? And how do you prevent a $200B+ company from becoming slow and complacent? In this episode, CJ is joined by Sandeep Aujla, CFO of Intuit, who shares how one of the world's largest software companies continues to operate with the agility of a startup. With QuickBooks, TurboTax, Credit Karma, and MailChimp all falling in the Intuit family tree, serving both consumers and businesses, Sandeep breaks down the company's platform strategy, explains how he tells a unified story across these product lines, and describes how he prioritizes capital allocation. He also talks about Intuit's efforts to leverage AI to improve internal efficiencies, insights into the ideal CFO-CTO relationship, tactics for saying no, the benefits of letting stuff break, and how finance helped uncover a major growth opportunity for Intuit in the mid-market. The conversation touches on the company's 25 golden metrics, why leap years and the Super Bowl affect revenue, and the lesson Sandeep learned from a $2 coffee.—LINKS:Sandeep Aujla: https://www.linkedin.com/in/aujla/Intuit: https://www.intuit.com/CJ on X (@cjgustafson222): https://x.com/cjgustafson222Mostly metrics: —TIMESTAMPS:(00:00) Preview and Intro(02:30) Sponsor – Pulley | Brex | Aleph(07:11) Sandeep's Career Journey at Intuit(09:41) The Stigma Around CFOs and Seriousness(11:01) Being the Disruptor When You're Already the Incumbent(14:04) Intuit: Software, Payments, or Services Company?(15:21) Sponsor – RightRev | Navan | NetSuite |(19:00) The Intuit Family Tree(20:14) Cross-Platform Network Effects(21:54) Telling a Unified Story Across Multiple Product Lines(25:24) How Finance Discovered a Mid-Market Growth Opportunity(28:56) Reducing Churn by Keeping Customers on Platform(31:04) How Small Businesses Are Evolving To Leverage Tech and AI(34:11) How Sandeep Prioritises Capital Allocation(37:17) Tactics for Saying No Gracefully as a CFO(39:39) The Benefits of Letting Stuff Break(43:10) Reinvesting Across the Business: Consumer Versus Business(45:36) The CFO-CTO Relationship in the Age of AI(49:45) Tracking Intuit's Target for Internal AI Efficiency(52:06) Surprising Usage Patterns: Leap Years, Game of Thrones, etc(53:15) The Different Use Cases for AI Internally(55:48) The 25 Golden Metrics That Matter(58:45) Leap Years and Other Surprising Things That Impact the Business(1:00:04) Long-Ass Lightning Round: A Deadline Mistake(1:02:04) Advice to Younger Self(1:03:48) Finance Software Stack(1:04:36) A Bonus Question: Printed Notes(1:05:17) Craziest Expense Story—SPONSORS:Pulley is the cap table management platform built for CFOs and finance leaders who need reliable, audit-ready data and intuitive workflows, without the hidden fees or unreliable support.

Navigating Industry Volatility: How Insurance Agents Can Thrive in a Changing Medicare LandscapeThe latest episode of the Insurance Business Babes podcast brings together host Kathe Kline, co-host Joanna Wyckoff, and industry powerhouse Neil Reich for an honest discussion of the current turbulence in the Medicare insurance world. With plan exits, shrinking commissions, regulatory uncertainties, and unprecedented price hikes, agents must now adapt, diversify, and deepen relationships to stay successful.Industry Upheaval: What's Changing in Medicare AdvantageAccording to guest Neil Reich, the past year has brought volatility unlike anything he's seen in his 27-year career. Major Medicare Advantage carriers like Humana and Aetna have pulled out of some markets due to soaring medical loss ratios, leaving consumers scrambling for alternatives and further concentrating business among remaining giants like United. Commission structures are shifting, and the legal landscape is uncertain, with the Department of Justice and new CMS rules causing ongoing anxiety about the future of FMOs (Field Marketing Organizations).Diversification Is EssentialNeil isn't deterred by the disruption—instead, he emphasizes the need for insurance agents to diversify their offerings. His new agency, Care Connect Advisors, has quickly added Medicare Supplement plans, Index Universal Life, final expense, hospital indemnity (with popular guaranteed-issue options for ages 64-70), cancer, dental, and even annuities to the product mix. This mirrors Kathe and Joanna's advice that now, more than ever, agents should be “multi-product” — cross-selling to better serve clients and protect their own earnings in the face of shrinking Medicare Advantage opportunities.Relationship Building and Technology: The Agent's GoldmineStaying connected to clients is a major theme. The podcast highlights how agents are successfully blending manual outreach (calls and texts to educate and cross-sell) with automation (drip campaigns, retention videos, and CRM tools). Touchpoints aren't just for selling—they reinforce trust, increase retention, and open natural conversations about needs like hospital indemnity or annuities.The Path Ahead: AI, FMOs, and the Advisor MindsetWhile regulators mull the impact of overrides and marketing practices, agents are also looking to the future with AI poised to disrupt the sales process. Still, both Neil and the hosts remain optimistic: FMOs like Spark are evolving, offering powerful tech and support. The key message? Agents must evolve from “order takers” to true advisors—guiding clients comprehensively through industry changes and personalized solutions.In summary, claim your power as an agent by diversifying your product line, leveraging smart tech, nurturing relationships, and embracing your advisory role. In a shifting Medicare world, these strategies are more essential—and more rewarding—than ever.This episode is sponsored by ⁠CertifiedMedicareAgents.com⁠.

In this episode of the Property Profits Podcast, host Dave Dubeau chats with Louisiana-based real estate investor and tech entrepreneur Carlos Pineda. Carlos shares how he went from wholesaling during the 2021 market frenzy to building a tech-driven, vertically integrated real estate business that now spans four companies. Carlos reveals the critical turning point in his journey: realizing that treating real estate like a real business—with systems, processes, and long-term strategy—was the key to long-term success. That led him to create Taskify, a CRM built by investors for investors, complete with AI tools to automate follow-ups, close deals, and manage operations. You'll hear Carlos break down the challenges he faced during the market shift in 2022, how he pivoted from a struggling wholesaling business to creating monthly recurring revenue through software, and why he's doubling down on commercial construction and government contracts to stay recession-proof. In this episode, you'll discover: Why Carlos believes most investors treat real estate more like a hustle than a business—and what to do differently How he transitioned from wholesaling to launching a tech company tailored to real estate pros The importance of multiple exit strategies How he's combining construction, tech, education, and investing into one scalable business model His thoughts on market resilience and long-term stability in North America   - Get Interviewed on the Show! - ================================== Are you a real estate investor with some 'tales from the trenches' you'd like to share with our audience?
