Podcasts about CTA

Earlier this week, we broke down some of the major line items in the $1.5 billion transit bill. However, we did not answer whether or not CTA and Metra fares were still planned to go up, given that the Regional Transportation Authority officials announced weeks ago that the expected 10% fare hikes were not contingent upon the final bill. We ask Block Club Chicago's Manny Ramos and Quinn Myers what we should expect at the farebox. Plus, the city wants to buy the downtown bus terminal, librarians denounce budget cuts, and the baby Bulls keep winning!  Good news: Deeply Rooted Dance Theater Want some more City Cast Chicago news?

Gastrointestinal bleeding is a frequent and potentially life-threatening presentation in the ED. With CT angiography increasingly being used as a first-line diagnostic tool, are we improving detection or simply overusing imaging? Join Dr. Guillaume as she discusses this recent JAMA Network Open study examining trends in CTA utilization for GI bleeding and whether rising scan rates are truly leading to better diagnostic yield.

Pulsatile tinnitus — the perception of a rhythmic sound in sync with the heartbeat — can be a key indicator of underlying vascular or structural pathology. In this episode, JNIS new Editor-in-Chief Dr. Michael Chen speaks with Dr. Madhavi Duvvuri and Dr. Matthew Robert Amans, authors of Non-invasive imaging modalities for diagnosing pulsatile tinnitus: a comprehensive review and recommended imaging algorithm. They are both from the University of California San Francisco, USA. They discuss the current evidence base, highlight the strengths and limitations of non-invasive imaging techniques such as MRI, MRA, CT, and CTA, and outline a practical algorithm for streamlining diagnosis.    Please subscribe to the JNIS podcast on your favourite platform to get the latest podcast every month.

Earlier this year, Anna Lee Ackerman attempted the CTA ‘L' Challenge, documenting her entire journey on TikTok. The goal is to ride every CTA train line and hit every ‘L' stop as fast as possible. Host Jacoby Cochran sat down with Anna as she was planning her trip to ask why it's worth doing, and to get her definitive (and possibly spicy) ranking of the city's train lines.

Instagram stories are my favorite place to re-engage an audience. So today, I'm taking you through the strategies that actually work for me and my clients. Because here's the thing: the average story view rate drops 20% with every tap. So if you want your stories to drive people to your DMs and drive sales, you need to be intentional.   Your stories aren't a place to talk at your audience. Instead, you want to chat with them. This looks like using the engagement tools Instagram provides and actually following through in the DMs, even if it's just one person that shows up at first. Beyond simply using the tools, I'm telling you exactly how I like to use them. Because a question box is simply less effective if it's used to push complicated questions your audience doesn't feel like answering! And their are ways to use these tools that actually prompt the algorithm to share your stories with more people.  So we'll be covering strategies that will awaken your current audience and get more eyes on your stories in general. Have you ever thought about treating your stories the same way you would a reel? Have you given any thought to pacing and what you can do to mitigate audience fatigue? If not, now is the time. From story sequencing to pacing tips, there are simple ways you can take the guessing game out of stories. And soon enough, you'll actually be building the community you long for.  In today's episode, we're chatting about:  Things I'm seeing that are NOT working on Instagram stories  Why you should start story sequencing My engagement-bait tip for the first story you share each day  The side CTA strategy  Campaign specific tips  Connect with me:  Website Join our email list!

Send us a textReady to grow your voice without chasing vanity metrics? We sit down with Duncan Bhaskaran Brown—author, speaker, and unapologetic Morris dancer—to unpack how small, aligned audiences can move the needle more than massive but passive ones, and why guesting early and often builds skill, credibility, and genuine reach. Duncan's journey from overindulgence to helping people rewire habits gives him a rare blend of empathy and edge. He shares how a playful hook makes you relatable, how to turn interviews into research that benefits listeners, and why your “ordinary” insights might be exactly what someone needs to hear today.We explore hosting and guesting from both chairs: the shift from rigid question lists to guided, human conversations; how to ask questions that spark fresh thinking instead of rehearsed talking points; and a simple production mindset that favours incremental upgrades over perfection. Duncan breaks down the art of resilient outreach, the value of showing up for smaller shows, and the compounding return of being kind—you never know who someone knows or who they'll become. You'll also pick up smart, practical tactics: prepare out loud, make your CTA unforgettable with a short domain, and design segments that keep pace without sacrificing depth.Along the way, Duncan shares a teaser about a future Guinness World Record and why embracing personal stories—yes, even Morris dancing—can illuminate serious topics like sobriety, community, and joy. Whether you're levelling up your pitch, refreshing your format, or just getting started, this conversation gives you tools to grow your authority while staying human.

Hello to you listening in Warsaw, Poland!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (and a bit more) for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga.I am deeply proud of my Polish heritage and being a lawyer. These times are unprecedented; but especially for judges, the last line of freedom's defense. Attacks on the independence of the judiciary are sweeping our country taking various forms ranging from court capture to direct attacks on judges. The cowards behind the attacks know that the independence of judges - the judicial branch of government - is foundational to democracy.“Judicial independence is fundamental to the rule of law. The rule of law is fundamental to freedom. Freedom is fundamental to the protection of every citizen.” [John Macmenamin - Judge at the Supreme Court of Ireland]Those are not my words. Those are the words of John Macmenamin, a judge at the Supreme Court of Ireland who joined with Polish judges at the “1000 Robes March”, an unprecedented event held in the name of judicial independence.1000 Robes March was the greatest demonstration of judges in contemporary Europe, with more than 30,000 people, including hundreds of judges from 22 European countries marching in solidarity with their Polish colleagues in the fight for judicial independence. The silent march in January 2020 was a reaction to proposed laws that threatened to undermine the judiciary's independence in Poland.  "A Thousand Robes" is a short (12 minute) documentary film directed by Kacper Lisowski. The story is about mutual gratitude, focusing on the positive interactions between judges, lawyers, and the public. It highlights citizens who are moved by the judges' defense of their rights and lawyers who have experienced solidarity from ordinary people and European judges. The film serves as a warning against what dismantling the democratic mechanisms of the state leads to.Documenting this touching episode of the dramatic struggle for the rule of law that still lacks a happy ending in Poland, Kacper Lisowski also talks to the European judges participating in the march of a thousand robes. Particularly poignant is the voice of a Turkish judge who knows from experience what happens when such a struggle is lost.Click HERE to watch A Thousand Robes the film on YouTube.CTA: Maybe like me you will be moved to tears at what We the People can accomplish when we heed a call to action. This is what democracy looks like! Take Hope! Take Heart! Take Courage from all the good work being done by our federal judges who are in solidarity with our Democracy, our Constitution, our rule of law without fear or favor! You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

We sit down with videography‑driven marketer Joe Goodchild to unpack how dentists can turn simple, authentic reels into real enquiries and booked e‑consults without spending on ads.We start by tackling the mental barrier that keeps clinicians from posting: fear of judgement. Joe shares why short, honest videos outperform polished graphics, how modern algorithms sample content from new accounts, and the small production tweaks that make a big difference—like filming facing a window for clean, flattering light. We get practical about audience targeting too: speak to specific patient scenarios and desired treatments, not generic tips that vanish in the feed.From there, we map the platform strategy. Instagram remains the best organic home for dentists thanks to Reels and a broad user base that increasingly includes older patients. Facebook still helps reach implant demographics, though expect limited organic reach. TikTok can deliver big top‑of‑funnel visibility; use it to push traffic to Instagram or straight to your site rather than chasing DMs as the sole KPI. Then we rebuild the conversion path: write a clear bio stating who you help, where you work, and how to book, and replace crowded link trees with one decisive CTA. Joe breaks down why a direct e‑consult link outperforms open‑ended DMs, and how Calendly's custom fields, reminders, and short slots keep bookings smooth and show‑ups high. We round things out with a take on branding: use colour and consistency, but avoid repetitive grid patterns that turn into wallpaper—variety and clarity keep viewers engaged.———————————————————————Disclaimer: All content on this channel is for education purposes only and does not constitute an investment recommendation or individual financial advice.

After months of talk about service cuts and mass layoffs, lawmakers in Springfield passed a funding plan for the CTA and other public transit early Friday morning. The House and Senate approved the $1.5B spending plan on mainly party-line votes with Democratic supermajorities prevailing.

Este episodio revela una jugada que puede cambiar tu podcast: la retención minuto a minuto ya se puede leer en las plataformas, con caídas y picos que dicen exactamente dónde se va la gente. La clave está en rehacer la intro y el primer gancho para que todo el episodio suba. Sigue estos pasos rápidos: abre el informe del episodio más reciente, detecta caídas antes del minuto tres y saltos de capítulo, graba una intro de 15 segundos con una promesa clara y un microejemplo, y coloca la llamada a la acción después del primer valor. Añade un mini capítulo 00:00 Qué te llevas hoy para anclar al oyente y corta saludos largos o relleno. Ojo: el primer minuto decide si te escuchan o te abandonan.Para ilustrarlo, cuentan el caso de una escuela de idiomas que pasó de perder oyentes al inicio a retener mejor al cambiar la intro y adelantar el gancho, además de colocar el CTA tras el valor inicial. Recomiendan una plantilla de intro de 20 segundos: promesa de 8 segundos, ejemplo de 8 y una frase de camino en tres pasos. Si quieres empezar ya, revisa tu último episodio, identifica la primera caída y grábate una intro de 15–20 segundos con promesa y ejemplo; publícala como versión actualizada o úsala en el próximo episodio y mide los resultados a las 72 horas. ¿Te quedarán ganas de escuchar el siguiente episodio para saber qué más funciona?Conviértete en un seguidor de este podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/marketing-digital-para-podcast--2659757/support.Newsletter Marketing Radical: https://marketingradical.substack.com/welcomeNewsletter Negocios con IA: https://negociosconia.substack.com/welcomeMis Libros: https://borjagiron.com/librosSysteme Gratis: https://borjagiron.com/systemeSysteme 30% dto: https://borjagiron.com/systeme30Manychat Gratis: https://borjagiron.com/manychatMetricool 30 días Gratis Plan Premium (Usa cupón BORJA30): https://borjagiron.com/metricoolNoticias Redes Sociales: https://redessocialeshoy.comNoticias IA: https://inteligenciaartificialhoy.comClub: https://triunfers.com

Did you like this episode? Dislike it? In this episode, Danny, Mike, and Eddie break down what really makes a call to action effective—and it's not just the words on the button. They explain why the real persuasive work happens before someone ever clicks “Contact Us,” and how you can guide potential clients to take action by showing them what's in it for them. If you've ever wondered why your “Book a Call” button isn't getting clicks, this one's for you.

In this episode of The Inquisitor, host Marcus Cauchi sits down with Scott Aaron, co-founder of The Time to Grow, to explore the power of authenticity in marketing and sales. Scott helps coaches, consultants, and service professionals scale their businesses by prioritizing connection over competition, and this conversation is packed with actionable strategies for growing your presence on LinkedIn while staying human-first. From leveraging AI ethically to optimizing your LinkedIn profile for inbound leads, this episode offers practical insights you can implement immediately. Key Takeaways 1. AI as a Tool, Not a Replacement AI is in its early stages and should be used as a tool to enhance, not replace, human work. Scott and his team use personalized GPTs to help members craft high-engagement LinkedIn content. Avoid “scaling idiocy at volume”: always use AI with a human-centric approach. 2. The Warm Touchpoint Messaging Strategy Dedicate 20–30 minutes daily to active networking on LinkedIn. Automation tools violate LinkedIn's rules—all messages should be sent manually. Use the Warm Touchpoint Checklist to identify opportunities: Accept connection requests Engage with posts and content Comment or vote in polls Subscribe to newsletters Craft your first message: One warm, friendly paragraph Include a relatable connection point Use the word “support” to build rapport Avoid pitching or hard-selling Test your CTAs: Compare direct questions (e.g., “Do you have time for a Zoom this week?”) versus open-ended statements for one month to see what drives more booked calls. 3. High-Impact Content Strategy LinkedIn content increasingly acts as a lead generator. Combine Thought Leadership (expert positioning) with Storytelling (relatability). Keep content simple and digestible, avoiding technical overload. Prioritize practice over perfection and give tangible tips for free to build trust and credibility. 4. Content Types & Scheduling Content Type Frequency Key Tips LinkedIn Newsletter Weekly (Fridays) Best for building subscribers and external traffic. Requires 150+ connections. LinkedIn Live (Video) Twice a week (Mon & Thu, 10 a.m. ET) Build trust over time. Include a CTA to convert viewers into subscribers. Carousel Posts (PDF) Every other week (Saturdays) Use PDF format to allow scrolling. Share quick, actionable tips. Articles Only if under 150 connections   Resharing Occasionally Always add your perspective to highlight expertise. 5. Profile Optimization About Section (Summary) 300–500 words, written in first person Share your personal story, what you do, who you serve, and how you serve them Include 15–20 skill keywords for SEO End with a clear CTA Experience Section List at least three roles, with your most relevant first Include short 2–4 sentence descriptions Use title formatting with totem poles to highlight expertise Example: Co-founder of The Time to Grow | Marketing | Sales | Branding Whether you're looking to grow your LinkedIn presence, craft content that converts, or use AI ethically in your business, this episode gives you the tools to start today.

Markets hit new all-time highs Friday, with momentum improving and a fresh MACD buy signal confirming the uptrend. Relative strength continues to build, supporting the case for a year-end rally. But investors shouldn't get complacent. December's mutual fund rebalancing and short-term pullbacks could add volatility, even as corporate buybacks and under-positioned hedge funds keep providing support. In this video, we break down what's driving the rally, the technical signals confirming momentum, and what risks investors should still keep on their radar as we move into year-end.

Open Enrollment Reactivation: How Clinics Turn Past Patients into Six-Figure Months (with Jeremy Dupont) In this episode, Doc Danny Matta sits down with Jeremy Dupont (founder of Patch) to break down the most reliable campaign in cash PT: Open Enrollment. They cover simple and advanced playbooks for reactivating past patients, the offers that convert (and why), how to mobilize your team, and what realistic results look like for a growing clinic. Quick Ask Help us move toward our mission of adding $1B in cash-based services to physical therapy—share this episode with a clinician friend or post it on your Instagram stories and tag Danny. He'll reshare it! Episode Summary Low-hanging fruit: Reactivation beats cold lead gen. Past patients already know, like, and trust you—bring them back with a clear, time-bound offer. Timing that works: Run Open Enrollment mid-September to early November to avoid competing with Black Friday and holiday noise. Proven offers: Classic 12 for 10 pack (two “free” visits or a clear $-savings) and a higher-commitment 24 for 20 pack (often on a 3-pay plan) to grow LTV and stabilize MRR. Clinical cadence: Frame packages for twice-monthly visits (habit & outcomes), not “stretch it for a year.” Families often share bigger packs. FSA nudge: “Use it or lose it.” Encourage spending FSA dollars before year-end; HSA rolls, FSA often doesn't. Manual > fancy: Individual reach-outs (text, call, in-person) outperform gimmicks. Emails nurture; humans convert. Team power: Involve providers in personalized follow-ups. Incentives like a Christmas week off can crush goals. Results you can expect: A clinic with an owner + two staff PTs commonly sells 20–30 packages when they execute well. Lessons & Takeaways Offer clarity wins: Know exactly what you're selling and how you'll message savings and value. Context is king: Choose channels and scope based on capacity. Don't flood a full schedule. Nurture all year: A warm list responds; a cold list ignores asks. Give value before you ask. Plan the calendar: Open Enrollment → Black Friday → Holidays → New Year. Map campaigns, staffing, and hiring to demand. Mindset & Motivation It's an ecosystem: Reactivation is part of your hiring, space, continuity, and cashflow strategy—not a one-off promo. Follow-up is a skill: Segmented, human follow-up turns “maybe later” into revenue now. Give, give, ask: Consistent education builds reciprocity. Then earn the right to sell. What Works (Tactical) Simple path (solo or lean): Pick one clear offer (12 for 10), email your list, text/call past patients, and have providers invite current patients who are nearly out of visits. Advanced path (bigger teams): 5–6 email drip over 2–3 weeks, landing page specific to Open Enrollment (not your contact page), track opens/clicks and manually follow up with “warm” engagers. Personalization buckets: Current patients with 2–3 visits left, past patients who finished care recently, old leads who inquired but didn't buy—each gets tailored copy and a direct ask. Motivate the team: Group goals (e.g., hit X packages = Christmas week off). Time off > small cash bonuses. Avoid time wasters: Fancy video email “personalization” tools didn't move the needle. In-person and 1:1 messages did. Notable Quotes “Reactivation is the lowest hanging fruit—people who already trust you just need a clear reason to come back.” “If the last time you emailed your list was last Open Enrollment, don't expect fireworks.” “Less is more: pick the right window, keep the offer simple, and follow up like a pro.” Pro Tips for Owners Define the offer: Choose 12 for 10 or 24 for 20 (with 3-pay). Set the clinical cadence (2x/month). Own the landing page: Dedicated Open Enrollment page with a single CTA—don't dump traffic on a generic contact form. Mine your analytics: Build manual follow-up lists from people who opened multiple times or clicked the CTA. Right-size promotion: If you're at capacity, keep it tight (email + in-clinic). If you're feeding 6–7 PTs, amplify everywhere. Think families: Position bigger packs for active households who'll share visits across the year. Action Items Pick your Open Enrollment dates (target mid-Sept to early Nov) and one offer. Spin up a simple landing page with FAQs and a clear “Talk to Us” form. Segment lists: current (low visits left), past 3–6 mo, old leads. Draft 3 tailored scripts. Schedule a 5-email drip and build warm-engager follow-up tasks for your team. Set a team goal & reward (e.g., holiday week off) and daily scoreboard.

Nos acercamos al empate a cero entre Alavés y Valencia y al primer entrenamiento de la selección femenina de fútbol. Además, Antón Meana nos trae la última hora sobre la protesta contra el partido de Miami y charlamos con Jose Luis Oltra, uno de los entrenadores elegidos por el CTA para seleccionar las jugadas arbitrales polémicas de la semana. 

El capitán del Real Madrid pide dar un paso más en la guerra contra LaLiga por el partido en Miami, pero antes debe encontrar la unanimidad de todos los capitanes, el CTA no analizará la expulsión de Nyom, el Sanedrín de Futbolistas con toda la jornada, y entrevista a Hugo González. 

This episode is Part 2 of Stephanie's conversation with Peter Ferrigno. For the full conversation, make sure you listen to Part 1 before you begin this episode.In Part 2 of this conversation, I'm joined again by Peter Ferrigno, a UK expat tax veteran (CTA, FCA, CIPD) whose career spans Big Four leadership, immigration and relocation, and hands-on advisory across Europe. Peter has lived the expat life himself—Poland, the Czech Republic, and now Spain—so he understands the human side of cross-border moves as much as the numbers.We get practical about how residency and citizenship planning intersects with tax. We talk candidly about “Plan B” residencies, why some clients only need clarity rather than action, and where the Ireland–UK rules can be optimised (or tripped over!) if you don't plan ahead.We also cover Americans relocating to the UK after the abolition of the remittance basis and how the new foreign income & gains regime can be used in the first four years. Peter shares sensible guardrails for digital nomads (including a risk-based approach to day counting), the difference between income tax and VAT sourcing on remote advice, and why long-range planning needs flexibility when life and legislation change.The key thing to note here is: if you're serious about changing tax residence, you actually have to move - company structures alone won't save you and Peter can be the right person to lean on if you need support.Main Topics Discussed in this Episode:Residency and Citizenship Planning at Henley & Partners: Peter explains how tax advice integrates into residency and citizenship planning, especially for clients seeking a “Plan B” residency for flexibility or future relocation options.Cross-Border Planning Between Ireland and the UK: We discuss how careful timing and awareness of residency rules can prevent unintended tax exposure when moving between Ireland and the UK, and why long-term planning needs to stay adaptable.U.S. Citizens Moving to the UK Post-Remittance Basis: Peter outlines the implications for Americans relocating to the UK following the abolition of the remittance basis, and how the UK's new foreign income and gains regime offers short-term opportunities.Digital Nomads and Global Mobility Challenges: We unpack the realities of digital nomadism—how tax treaties and day-count rules apply when you work remotely across borders, and why a risk-based, practical approach is essential.The Human Side of Expat Tax Advice: Peter reflects on his decades in international tax, sharing why personal connection, empathy, and calm professionalism matter just as much as technical expertise when helping clients navigate major life changes.Get in touch with Peter Ferrigno:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/peterferrigno1Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/peter.ferrigno/Chapters:(00:00) Welcome & Introduction(00:33) How Tax Fits into Residency and Citizenship Planning(01:45) When Clients Need Clarity, Not Action(03:18) Navigating Residency Rules Between Ireland and the UK(05:16) Long-Term Tax Planning and Timing Moves(06:00) The Myth of “Tax-Free” Moves and Corporate Structures(07:00) Plan B Residencies and Citizenship for Families(09:04) U.S. Citizens Moving to the UK and the End of the Remittance Basis(12:07) Competing Tax Regimes and Attracting High-Net-Worth Individuals(12:52) The Rise of Digital Nomads and Remote Working Challenges(17:34) Practical...

In this episode of Poducer, we sit down with Dr. Shannon Switzer, Doctor of Audiology at Sensaphonics, the Chicago based clinic trusted by touring artists around the world. Specializing in music industry hearing health, Dr. Switzer bridges the gap between science and sound, helping musicians protect the very tool that defines their craft. From growing up in Vermont to studying audiology at Northwestern and joining Sensaphonics, she shares how her background in music led her to a career focused on preserving it. We dive into how hearing actually works, why the modern world has become dangerously loud, and how overexposure to sound quietly reshapes your ability to create and enjoy music. Dr. Switzer breaks down everything from the physics of hearing and tinnitus to custom in ear protection, high fidelity earplugs, and the misconceptions that make musicians ignore hearing care until it's too late. She also explains why properly fitted, filtered earplugs can improve how music sounds and how Sensaphonics helped pioneer custom in ear monitors for some of the biggest names in the industry. From the science of the cochlea to the culture of live shows in Chicago, this episode bridges the worlds of music and medicine, showing why protecting your ears isn't just about safety; it's about preserving your art.

In this episode of Business Lunch, Roland Frasier and Ryan Deiss explain how the classic four-stage buying journey has collapsed into one moment—and why trust is the lid that keeps prospects “popping” in your pot. They unpack three forms of trust—Identity, Competence, and Proximity—with sharp wins and public flops (Nike, Sephora, Peloton, DSW, Starbucks, Apple, United). You'll get simple creative frameworks to turn short-form content into instant, in-channel conversions and a 14-day sprint to prove it on a small budget.Highlights“It's not a funnel anymore—it's a popcorn popper.
