Most marketing videos these days feel like they came off the same assembly line—polished, generic, and kind of forgettable. With AI pumping out content by the second, it's no wonder everything starts to blur together. People aren't looking for perfect; they just want something that feels real, something that makes them pause for a second. But between chasing trends and trying to be everywhere at once, that human spark often gets lost in the shuffle. Tim Bradley is the co-founder of Pennant Video, an agency helping B2B brands tell better stories through video. With a mix of creative and strategy know-how, he helps companies stand out in tech, healthcare, and sustainability. Today, he shares his Video Marketing Trifecta—differentiate, demonstrate, and validate—as a guide for creating effective content. He stresses the need for real human connection and smart storytelling in an AI-saturated world. His focus is on using video across the funnel to build trust and clarity. Stay tuned!

Bonnie Tinder is the founder and CEO of Raven Intelligence, an independent B2B peer review site that amplifies the voice of the customer. She focuses on software customers, consulting partners, and software vendors, and helps identify the best partners for their needs. In this episode, she joins Bob Evans to talk about the shifting landscape of enterprise consulting, the rise of AI-driven delivery models, and what these changes mean for both firms and customers navigating digital transformation.Episode 53 | Smaller, Smarter, FasterThe Big Themes:The Traditional Consulting Model Is Quietly Collapsing: The traditional consulting model, built on large teams, playbooks, and high overhead, is no longer viable in the AI-native era. The shift is not a dramatic crash but a slow erosion of outdated practices. Customers no longer accept vague deliverables, bloated staffing, and unclear pricing. Instead, they demand speed, transparency, and clear outcomes.Smaller, Nimble Firms Are Positioned to Win: AI and generative tools are leveling the playing field for smaller consultancies. Bonnie argues that boutique firms — once at a disadvantage against the scale of major global consultancies — can now compete on an equal footing due to AI's democratization of data analysis, automation, and service delivery. These smaller firms often move faster, customize more effectively, and offer high-touch support without layers of bureaucracy.Transparency Is the New Currency of Trust: Bonnie criticizes large consulting firms for their persistent lack of transparency. Many resist public reviews, avoid accountability, and cherry-pick what gets showcased — raising red flags for discerning clients. She argues that in an era of instant data and shared experience, opacity is no longer acceptable. The future of consulting depends on a firm's willingness to open itself to scrutiny and prove its worth.The Big Quote: “The disruption isn't necessarily a slowdown in the need for consulting. It's just the shift in how technology is getting delivered. It's in what the value of the consultant is. It's no longer building codes and the architecture as much as it is the change management and the ability to help customers make good, fast decisions."More from Bonnie Tinder:Connect with Bonnie on LinkedIn or send a message via her Acceleration Economy Analyst page.

Guest None today; just me reflecting on recent events. Summary In this episode, I recount my recent fly fishing trip to Alaska, reflecting on how various organizations shaped my experience. Delta Airlines impressed him with personalized service and proactive rebooking. In contrast, an overpriced and unwelcoming airport hotel in Detroit left a negative impression. The Bear Trail Lodge in Alaska, however, stood out for its commitment to guest experience, environmental consciousness, and celebration of local culture, reinforcing the idea that a brand is defined by a series of customer touch points, not just its primary service. Key Points: A successful vacation, and by extension, a positive organizational experience, depends on mindset, handling unexpected issues, and interactions with external organizations. Organizations like Delta Airlines and the Bear Trail Lodge demonstrate an understanding that their overall brand and reputation are built upon numerous customer touch points, not just their core service. Personalized service, attention to detail (like a handwritten note or addressing customers by name), and embodying a brand's values contribute significantly to customer loyalty and satisfaction.

In today's Cloud Wars Minute, I spotlight the 30% surge in $20M+ customers as proof of ServiceNow's enterprise momentum.Highlights00:48 — Let me briefly touch on some of the key numbers from ServiceNow in Q2. So, the top line there: Subscription revenue was up 22.5% to $3.11 billion. Big jump in total RPO, or Remaining Performance Obligation, up 29% to almost $24 billion. I want to point out, too, the subscription revenue growth in Q2 — 22.5% — that's a big jump from the Q1 growth rate of 19.1%.01:29 — Very nice acceleration by ServiceNow. Customers spending at least $20 million has gone up 30% year over year. ServiceNow has 528 customers spending at least $5 million with them in annual contract value. On the call, McDermott said: “People and AI together will create new business and new discoveries and will catalyze economic growth in every corner of the world.”02:30 — It's too easy to fall into the trap of saying, “Oh, AI is going to wipe out a lot of jobs.” It's also going to create incredible new opportunities. McDermott also said he was really focusing on this term of “AI work.” He said AI work is going to be cross-functional. He said this will lead to big changes in org charts — they're going to be very different from how they were before.03:28 —McDermott talked about the unique role that ServiceNow plays in the industry. It's not an applications company. It's not an infrastructure company. It's an AI platform company. And it has found a way to be able to collaborate with almost all of the Cloud Wars Top 10 companies, and do so in a way, as McDermott likes to say, where for ServiceNow to win, no one else has to lose.04:31 — So, bullishness out the ears McDermott on this earnings call. Not only is the company doing well, but more importantly, as he said over and over: “Our customers are doing well and doing things they were never able to do before.” So, heady times here in the Cloud Wars.

In today's Cloud Wars Minute, I break down Google Cloud's explosive Q2 performance — including a 32% revenue jump, a $106 billion backlog, and a surge in billion-dollar deals.Highlights00:14 — We saw a great re-acceleration by Google Cloud. In Q2, it recorded great numbers across the board. I think what this shows is that large enterprises are buying fully into the Google Cloud value proposition. It's made huge strides there. These are AI-hungry customers who realize they've got potentially a great partner in Google Cloud.01:05 — Q2 revenue for Google Cloud was up 32% to $13.6 billion. The backlog for Google Cloud was up 38% to $106 billion. This is a number that Google Cloud has not released publicly before. It was buried deep in their numbers. But it brought it up on the earnings call. One quarter ago, it was about $90 billion. It's now at $106 billion. Billion-dollar deals surged.02:39 — It added 28% more in Q2 than it did in Q1 — huge. Again, a sense of momentum. It's bringing in new revenue, new customers, new prospects. Also, Google Cloud's parent company, Alphabet, is boosting CapEx by $10 billion for this year — up from the original $75 billion plan.03:38 — I'll be looking to see, on July 30, when Microsoft releases its numbers: did they see the same kind of growth acceleration that Google Cloud did? In Q1, Google Cloud's revenue grew 28%. This quarter, it improved to 32%. While Microsoft's cloud business is much bigger than Google Cloud, it's understandable that Google Cloud would have a higher growth rate.04:35 — Google Cloud is doing a lot of things right — from its AI-native technology and cloud infrastructure business, to what it's doing in data analytics, and the way it's forged partnerships with everybody: Oracle, SAP, ServiceNow, Salesforce, Workday. It's really opened it up.05:00 — It's making it easier for customers to put together the complex types of solutions needed as we move into this very different future. Hats off to Google Cloud and Thomas Kurian for a great quarter. Visit Cloud Wars for more.

Setting proper expectations with clients is crucial in order to maintain a positive relationship and avoid misunderstandings regarding service quality. Implementing a structured Terms of Service agreement significantly mitigates customer conflicts and clarifies the scope of work and limitations before service begins. It is imperative to protect team members from verbal abuse, ensuring a respectful workplace environment, as this directly influences overall morale and productivity. Continuous improvement in customer interaction practices is necessary, particularly in managing difficult clients and setting realistic expectations for service outcomes. Firing a problematic customer can be financially beneficial in the long term by preserving team morale and maintaining service standards, despite the immediate loss of revenue.

On this week's episode of The MacRumors Show, we talk through this week's announcement of AppleCare One and automakers' opting out of CarPlay Ultra. AppleCare One is Apple's new subscription for customers to cover multiple devices with a single plan. It starts at $19.99 per month for up to three products, with the ability to add more for $5.99 per month for each additional device. The plan incudes all of the benefits that come with AppleCare+, such as unlimited repairs for accidents, priority support, battery coverage, and more. Subscribers can freely move their devices in and out of the plan at any time. AppleCare One also enables users to add products they already own that are up to four years old, providing they are in good condition, extending beyond the current 60-day window to purchase AppleCare+. When a customer trades in a covered product with Apple, it is automatically removed from their AppleCare One plan and replaced with the new device. AppleCare One also expands theft and loss protection to the iPad and Apple Watch. Previously, it was only available for the iPhone. AppleCare One's pricing is the same regardless of the products that are covered. Apple says that a customer who enrolls their iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch could save up to $11 per month versus enrolling in separate AppleCare+ plans for each device. Customers in the United States can now sign up for AppleCare One on their iPhone, iPad, or Mac, or by visiting an Apple Store. We also discuss the news that automakers including BMW, Mercedes, Audi, Volvo, Polestar, Renault, and General Motors will not support CarPlay Ultra. It seems to be a major retreat from Apple's 2022 announcement, which originally named 14 automakers as future CarPlay Ultra partners. CarPlay Ultra goes far beyond traditional CarPlay by taking control of the entire dashboard experience. The system displays vehicle information like temperature, speed, and fuel levels alongside iPhone apps, creating what Apple calls "a unified and consistent experience across all the driver's screens." Currently, only Aston Martin offers CarPlay Ultra in production vehicles. Hyundai and its Kia and Genesis cars remain committed partners, while Porsche plans future support. Other originally announced brands like Ford and Nissan have provided no updates on their CarPlay Ultra plans.

In this explosive episode of the Patriot Streetfighter Roundtable, Michael Jaco, Scott McKay, Lewis Herms, and Nino Rodriguez come together for a gripping conversation that unpacks some of the most controversial and urgent topics shaking the world today. The roundtable kicks off with Tulsi Gabbard's bombshell allegation that former President Barack Obama may have authorized an assassination attempt on Donald Trump—a revelation that sets the tone for an intense discussion about justice, treason, and the unraveling of deep state operations. The panel explores the potential for high-profile arrests, military tribunals, and the unprecedented chaos that could erupt in major U.S. cities if the truth is brought to light. From there, the conversation spans the possibility of mass declassification, the geopolitical shockwaves such arrests could trigger, and the strategic role of global figures like Vladimir Putin in this unfolding drama. The group also dives into the manipulation of the media, the depths of government corruption, and the urgent call for public awakening in the face of global deception. Packed with insider insights, sharp analysis, personal experience, and flashes of humor, this episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking to understand the power dynamics at play and the revolutionary ideas driving today's political awakening.

Freedom Through Passive Profits | Start an Etsy Business, Sell Digital Products, Make Passive Income
If you've ever felt like your Etsy shop is on a never-ending hamster wheel — constantly chasing new customers, creating new products, tweaking your SEO — I've got something you need to hear. Because the truth is, the sellers who are quietly making consistent, reliable income aren't necessarily the ones with the biggest followings or the most listings… They've just figured out a different way to grow — one that most people completely overlook. You know that little star you see next to a customer's name on Etsy — the one that means they've purchased from you before? That tiny icon is a game changer. Because getting one sale is great… but getting repeat customers? That's where everything shifts. In this episode, I'm sharing the secret that not only brings customers back to your shop again and again… but actually transforms your business into something that feels easier, more sustainable, and way more aligned.

The Millionaire Car Salesman Podcast provides a treasure trove of insights through candid discussions with industry insiders. The conversations with Sean V. Bradley and automotive experts Rammy Joudeh and Dayne Thornicroft underscore pivotal themes in today's automotive marketplace. By examining the strategies of top sellers, the role of innovative marketplaces, and the reshaping landscape due to new legislation, it becomes clear how these elements synergize to redefine success in car sales. Harnessing the Cody Carter Model: Strategic Success in Car Sales Cody Carter stands as a beacon of success in the automotive industry, consistently achieving remarkable sales numbers. His multifaceted strategy serves as a blueprint for other salespeople aiming to elevate their performance. As Sean V. Bradley notes, "Success leaves clues." Carter's approach is not just about exceptional interpersonal skills but about strategically positioning himself where the customers are: "He lives where the shoppers hang out," states Rammy Joudeh. Carter leverages several key tactics. His utilization of Facebook groups allows him to connect with potential buyers effectively. His expertise in leasing, specifically through self-service pricing platforms such as Least Genius, empowers customers with the information they crave, thus enhancing the buying experience. Moreover, Carter's strategic alliances with auto brokers create a pipeline for consistent, qualified leads. Understanding and implementing these elements can drive significant improvements in a salesperson's business model. Dealers and sales professionals need to adopt a mindset of continuous learning and adaptation, leveraging environments where customers are most active. Redefining Transparency in Car Dealerships with Marketplaces In an era where trust and transparency hold paramount importance, marketplaces like AutoBandit emerge as revolutionary platforms for dealerships. These marketplaces are transforming the car sales landscape by providing risk-free opportunities to connect buyers and dealerships. "We want to perform; if we don't perform, that's on us," says Rammy Joudeh, emphasizing the accountability and confidence embedded in their model. AutoBandit, as highlighted by Dayne Thornicroft, offers a unique approach by integrating transparency into the transaction process. With practices such as running soft credit apps, verifying IDs, and securing deposits upfront, the marketplace minimizes friction between buyer and dealership. This ensures that only qualified buyers engage, enhancing efficiency and customer satisfaction. By shifting focus to such platforms, dealerships can drive customer confidence and improve sales. They provide an avenue to bypass traditional lead generation pitfalls by creating seamless experiences that culminate in qualified, delivery-ready prospects. Navigating the Legislative Landscape: Impacts and Opportunities New legislation, particularly the recent "big beautiful bill," holds the potential to reshape the automotive industry. As Dayne Thornicroft outlines, significant aspects of these legislative changes include adjustments to EV rebates, impacting leasing's attractiveness. "Leasing a hybrid and an ev… their penetration rates… are much, much higher," he states, reflecting the growing importance of understanding these market shifts. The implications for car sales lie in adapting to these changes proactively. By capitalizing on current benefits, such as EV lease incentives before they phase out, dealerships can enhance their value proposition to customers. Such foresight ensures dealerships remain competitive amidst evolving legislative environments. Moreover, the conversation among the podcast's hosts touches on an evolving market ethos—consumers now expect pricing transparency. With the enforcement of initiatives like the Cars Act waning, responsibility falls on dealerships to maintain trust through integrity and openness, ultimately nurturing long-term customer relationships. Synthesizing Market Dynamics for Unparalleled Success The wisdom imparted through conversations on the Millionaire Car Salesman Podcast encapsulates key elements essential for domination in the car sales arena. From Cody Carter's strategic mastery to the disruptive innovations introduced by marketplaces like AutoBandit, and through the lens of crucial legislative shifts, a holistic understanding of these dynamics is vital. Dealers and sales professionals are encouraged to analyze and incorporate these insights, strategically aligning themselves with proven practices while remaining flexible to adapt to new challenges and opportunities. In doing so, they not only secure their success but redefine the standards of excellence in the automotive industry, paving the path for a future where knowledge, transparency, and strategic acumen drive unparalleled success.
