Marketing teams used to have a simple enough job: follow the click, count the conversions, and shift the budget accordingly. But that world is gone. GDPR, iOS restrictions, and browser-level changes have left most attribution models broken or unreliable. So what now? In this episode, I sat down with Fredrik Skansen, CEO of Funnel, to unpack how marketing intelligence actually works in a world where data is partial, journeys are fragmented, and the old models don't hold. Since founding Funnel in 2014, Fredrik has grown the company into a platform that supports over 2,600 brands and handles reporting on more than 80 billion dollars in annual digital spend. That scale gives him a front-row seat to the questions every CMO and CFO are asking right now. Fredrik explains why last-click attribution didn't just become inaccurate. It became misleading. With tracking capabilities stripped down and user signals disappearing, the industry has had to move toward modeled attribution and real-time optimisation. That only works if your data is clean, aligned, and ready for analysis. Funnel's platform helps structure campaigns upfront, pull data into a unified model, apply intelligence, push learnings back into the platforms, and produce reporting that makes sense to the wider business. This isn't about dashboards. It's about decisions. We also talk about budget mix. Performance channels may feel safe, but Fredrik points out they are also getting more expensive. When teams bring brand and mid-funnel activity back into the measurement framework, the picture often changes. He shares how Swedish retailer Gina Tricot grew from 100 million to 300 million dollars in three years, in part by shifting spend to brand and driving demand earlier in the customer journey. That move only felt safe because the data supported it. AI adds another layer. With tools like Perplexity reshaping search behavior and the web shifting from links to answers, click-throughs are drying up. But it's not the end of visibility. Content still matters. So does structure. The difference is that now your reader might be an AI model, not a human. That requires a rethink in how brands approach discoverability, authority, and engagement. What makes Funnel interesting is that it doesn't stop at analytics. The platform feeds insight back into action, reducing waste and creating tighter loops between teams. It also works for agencies, which is why groups like Havas use it across 40 offices through a global agreement. If you're tired of attribution theatre and want to understand what marketing measurement looks like when it's built for reality, this episode gives you a clear, usable view. Listen in, then tell me which decision you're still guessing on. Because marketing can be measured. Just not the way it used to be. ********* Visit the Sponsor of Tech Talks Network: Land your first job in tech in 6 months as a Software QA Engineering Bootcamp with Careerist https://crst.co/OGCLA

We have seen some spectacular revisions in economic data over the past couple of years. We've seen it in labor data, gross domestic product, inflation. These revisions are continuing to come. This time it's in the oil markets. The narratives are failing to explain what's happening behind the scenes. On top of that, the numbers are just plain wrong. For example US growth in oil demand was underestimated by a factor of 4 by the IEA. Mexico's oil consumption has been under-reported by 100,000 barrels a day for the last five years. The US oil consumption was off by 350 million barrels in the last 3 years. These are not small inaccuracies. Yet futures prices are being determined by these narratives. ---------------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1) iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613) Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com) LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce) YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734) Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso) Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com) **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com) Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital) Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)

Send me a messageIn this week's episode of the Sustainable Supply Chain Podcast, I sat down with fellow Irishman Paul Byrnes, CEO of Mavarick AI, to explore how manufacturers can use AI and data to tackle the notoriously difficult challenge of Scope 3 emissions.Paul brings a unique perspective, rooted in both deep data science and hands-on manufacturing experience, and he didn't shy away from the hard truths: most companies still struggle with messy, unreliable data and limited supplier engagement. We unpack why primary data will soon become table stakes, why spend-based estimates can be 40% off the mark, and how engaging suppliers requires a simple but often overlooked question, what's in it for them?We also discussed where AI genuinely moves the needle:Boosting confidence in data accuracy by identifying gaps and “contaminated” entriesProviding personalised training to help suppliers meet sustainability requestsUncovering and prioritising decarbonisation levers with clear ROIPaul shared real-world examples, from medical devices to automotive, that show how targeted projects, rather than trying to tackle all 15 Scope 3 categories at once, deliver the best results. We also touched on the environmental footprint of AI itself, energy, water, rare materials, and how responsible computing and smaller, purpose-built models can reduce the impact.For leaders wrestling with emissions strategy, Paul's advice is simple: start by mapping your data landscape. Know where you're rich, where you're poor, and build from there.This is a practical, candid conversation about making sustainability and profitability work hand-in-hand, and why efficiency wins are so often sustainability wins.Elevate your brand with the ‘Sustainable Supply Chain' podcast, the voice of supply chain sustainability.Last year, this podcast's episodes were downloaded over 113,000 times by senior supply chain executives around the world.Become a sponsor.

Alex (ex-BMO investment banker turned founder) shares how Futr.network is flipping the ad/data model with AI agents that pay you for training them. We dig into why the Web2 barter economy (free services for your data) is collapsing, how zero-party data and a data supply chain can route value back to consumers and data contributors (think: mortgage brokers, lenders), and why agentic advertising will disrupt Google/Meta style targeting.Timestamps[00:00] “Time for a new data model” — agents that pay you for training data [00:01] Alex's path: BMO (M&A → FIG → Digital Assets), fund, stables, now AI agents [00:03] What's broken: Web2 barter system, cookies/pixels, hidden training sets [00:05] Futr.network: self-sovereign AI agent + incentives for data contributors [00:06] Mortgage example: underwriting pack → agent training → recurring royalties [00:09] Why prior “get paid for your data” failed; why now works (AI agents = $$) [00:15] KPIs: users, dollars on rails, brand demand for zero-party data[00:16] Beachhead: auto loans (optimize payments, save interest, set-and-forget) [00:18] Rails: bank links, credit/debit, embedded wallet, stablecoin payments [00:19] Next verticals: mortgages, student loans; beyond finance → life data [00:21] What most miss about AI: it ran Web2 behind the scenes for years [00:24] High-fidelity AI: no hallucinations when money moves; enterprise-grade stacks [00:28] AI × crypto: machine-speed decisions need machine-speed value settlement [00:30] Data supply chain (like music royalties) via blockchain micropayments [00:32] The disruption: agentic advertising eats digital ads in 3–5 years [00:33] The ask: brands & enterprises; network effects; just raised $5.1M; more to come [00:37] Beta access coming; train your agent, earn tokensConnecthttps://futrnetwork.com/https://www.linkedin.com/company/thefutrcorporation/https://www.linkedin.com/in/alex-mcdougall-290b0b39/DisclaimerNothing mentioned in this podcast is investment advice and please do your own research.

Jay Olshonsky, former chairman president and CEO of NAI Global, joined to share why he launched 42 Plus LLC, an advisory firm named for his years in the business. His mission is to fight stagnation he sees across real estate by helping leaders move forward. We dug into AI's impact, the likely ebb and flow of an eventual bubble, and why you must pay attention even if you are not the expert. Jay partners with Phil Stringer to bring proven AI training from the residential side into commercial. He sees AI as a time saver for research, writing, analysis, and outreach, while reminding us that local knowledge and face to face work still win. Big firms keep consolidating, yet access to data and tools has leveled the field for boutiques. Personal branding in commercial is catching up to residential, with standouts showing how consistent value beats company size.Jay's playbook is simple. Know your audience. Give value. Use AI if it saves ten hours a week and rethink it if it costs twenty. Invest in travel and in person meetings to deepen insight and trust. Reverse mentor with younger pros to keep messaging sharp. He views the industry as 10 percent elite adopters, 10 percent striving, and a large middle stuck in place. His closing note was clear. Most people are not failing, they are stagnating, and a few smart changes can get them moving again.--
Joyce Coffee heads up Climate Resilience Consulting, advising cities and states and others on resilience to climate change. She explains to Ted that she learned early on in Chicago, that the impacts of climate change can be unpredictable and fierce. After 750 souls there lost their lives there in a heat wave, mostly black and brown citizens, she knew that she was going to focus on adaptation, and making people more resilient to the ravages of climate change.Joyce grew up in Colorado and then moved to the East Coat for her education at Tufts -- to focus on public health -- and then MIT where she was a student of Urban Studies and Planning. She talks about her first career step, working for an engineering firm that worked on the Three Gorges Dam project in China. The firm was helping China leap from a second world country to a first world country. Joyce's work surrounded relocating well over a million people whose land would be flooded by the dam. That prepared her for advocacy of relocating communities and towns to steer clear of the most threatening aspects of climate change.Ted and Joyce dig in on adaptation, a sorry reality. Why not cut greenhouse gases and avoid the need for adaptation? Joyce's climate action planning in Chicago made clear that even a city with a progressive mayor and populous, was falling short of its climate goals. Like it or not, citizens there -- and globally -- will have to adapt to rising CO2. Thus for nearly ten years, Joyce's firm has been providing consulting for cities and states... helping them prepare for floods, fires, droughts, windstorms, coastal inundation, and sea level rise.The conversation shifts to the brand-new guide that Climate Resilience Consulting has developed for small businesses. Sadly, one in three small businesses in climate change events have suffered financial losses. Data confirms that 26% of small businesses have resilience plans and fully 94% feel that they are prepared. But in areas ravaged by climate change events, 40% of small businesses are forced out of business. Not good. Joyce explains as small businesses employ half of all American workers and contribute 40% of our nation's gross domestic product. By helping small businesses -- with a practical guide complete with checklists and AI prompts - they can be more profitable, able to fare far better than ill-prepared others. They also "bounce back" more quickly... having moved to higher ground, or away from extreme fire risk areas. They are part of what Joyce calls the solution set... ripe with innovation and smarts in determining how to get "more crop for the drop," and formulating new kinds of exterior house paint that is more resistant to wildfires. Joyce gets great satisfaction in helping business and communities prepare for and reap the benefits of her grandmother's oft-stated view that "a stitch in time saves nine."
In this episode, Jay speaks with Sebastian Leape, CEO of Natcap, about how nature intelligence is transforming corporate sustainability and climate finance. Sebastian explains how Natcap helps companies turn nature data - from deforestation and water use to ecosystem dependencies - into business strategy that drives resilience and growth.They discuss why nature risk is financial risk, the rising influence of TNFD and CSRD, and why biodiversity offsets aren't the silver bullet many hope for.Give it a listen to learn why nature belongs on the balance sheet and how businesses can prepare for a nature-positive future.Resources:Natcap Website: https://natcapresearch.com/--About:Untangling Climate Finance explores the dynamic field of climate change finance through conversations with industry experts about topics including climate solutions, global carbon markets, carbon projects, novel technologies such as AI and distributed ledger, and much more.If you have any questions, comments, a future guest recommendation, or are interested in joining Jay for an episode, please shoot him a message at: jtipton@gordianknotstrategies.comCredits:The podcast is produced by Gordian Knot Strategies.It is written, narrated, and edited by Jay Tipton.Music is by Diamond_Tunes.

Meat snacks and sticks, particularly in the better-for-you market space, are soaring in popularity, but not all brands are benefitting the same way. Archer has reached aggressively across distribution channels with statistics that not only tell the obvious story — “stock us, we're better” — but also educates retail buyers on exactly how the meat snack category performs for them vis-a-vis competitors and what they can do to boost their sell-through, as Archer's Vice President of Marketing Andrew Thomas explains in this episode of MeatingPod. Meanwhile, the data also informs Archer's new marketing campaign, a tongue-in-cheek look at what it means to be “real.”

The war on fathers continues in our family courts, and this episode exposes how biased judicial systems actively endanger our children by perpetuating false narratives about paternal risk. When Kentucky implemented a presumption of equal custody, divorce rates plummeted by 25%—proof that removing incentives for parental alienation keeps families together. Yet mainstream media continues framing equal parenting as a dangerous "experiment" despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary.

In this episode, Stephen sits down with Ann Fellman, CMO at Bloomerang, to unpack what's actually happening in charitable giving and how nonprofits can raise more—consistently. Drawing from the latest Giving USA data and Bloomerang's vantage point across tens of thousands of organizations, Ann argues that the “decline in generosity” narrative is a myth.Generosity is shifting, not shrinking, and organizations that focus on relationships, recurring giving, and volunteer engagement are outperforming the sector.“Generosity is alive and well—and growing. When we build genuine relationships and make giving easy, nonprofits raise more.” — Ann FellmanAbout Our GuestAnn Fellman leads marketing at Bloomerang, a nonprofit giving platform that brings together donor CRM, fundraising (online, offline, events, auctions), and volunteer management in one place. Bloomerang's goal is simple: help nonprofits raise more—money, time, and community support—by making it easier to build lasting relationships.Episode SnapshotGenerosity is growing. Individual giving remains the largest slice of the pie and has increased year over year. Don't let negative headlines drive your strategy—follow the data.The “meaty middle” matters. Mid-level and first-time donors can become a predictable revenue engine with a thoughtful recurring giving strategy.Volunteers are super-supporters. Treat volunteer time as an on-ramp to deeper engagement; volunteers often become major donors and planned givers.Planned giving is changing. As the Great Wealth Transfer accelerates and more family foundations adopt spend-down policies, proactive relationship-building is essential.Make it easy to give. Donation page UX and integrated tools can materially lift conversion (Ann cited ~30% conversion lift for customers optimizing with Bloomerang's fundraising tools).Data + empathy = durable growth. Segment by life stage, align asks to donor capacity and timing (yes, market cycles influence larger gifts), and communicate impact clearly.

“If you have a body, you are an athlete.” In this episode, host Rebecca Kalogeris speaks with Tobie Hatfield, Senior Director of Athlete* Innovation at Nike, about the philosophy and practice of building inclusive, high-performance products. From his early days as a pole vaulter and coach to more than 35 years of innovation at Nike, Tobie shares how his athletic background and curiosity shaped his approach to product development. He unpacks Nike's guiding principle—innovate for the athlete*, with an asterisk meaning all bodies count—and explains how this vision fuels breakthrough products. From designing performance shoes for athletes with cerebral palsy that can be put on hands-free, to pioneering new “precovery” technology in collaboration with Hyperice, Tobie illustrates how authentic inclusivity drives performance for everyone. Listeners will hear how Nike prototypes fast, embraces “fail forward” experimentation, and measures innovation through real athlete outcomes. Tobie also underscores that innovation is never the work of a lone genius—it's a team sport powered by observation, empathy, and courage to take calculated risks.

Behind the glossy claims and Instagram-friendly campaigns of beauty brands, there's a serious problem: most brands aren't actually measuring their environmental impact. And without hard data, all those 'sustainable' promises risk being little more than marketing spin. In this week's episode of Green Beauty Conversations, Formula Botanica CEO Lorraine Dallmeier pulls back the curtain on the beauty sector's sustainability gap – the uncomfortable truth that without measurement, the industry can't meaningfully improve.

This week, our hosts Dave Bittner, Joe Carrigan, and Maria Varmazis (also host of the T-Minus Space Daily show) are sharing the latest in social engineering scams, phishing schemes, and criminal exploits that are making headlines. Maria's story is on her recent close encounter with a Facebook scam. Dave's story is on a new strain of spyware that automates sextortion by detecting when users watch pornography, then secretly capturing both browser screenshots and webcam photos to blackmail victims. Joe's story is on the power of metadata, sharing how even limited browsing data from his machine learning class revealed personal details like daily routines, house hunting, and financial institutions. Our catch of the day comes from the Scams subreddit, featuring a phony Illuminati recruitment email promising power, wealth, and recognition in exchange for personal information.

How to Take Negative Feedback And Use It to Win in Med School Recently, our admissions coordinator Rachel was surprised by the reaction from an applicant CCOM chose not to admit. She'd set aside time to give the applicant some feedback on their application–an extra service we provide those who weren't successful in their bid to study medicine here. But instead of a thoughtful reaction to her notes, the unsuccessful applicant told her that they “didn't agree with any of that.” The problem with this attitude is that in medical school feedback is never ending! Students get notes on interpersonal skills, professional behaviors, clinical skills, your knowledge base. And the feedback comes from everyone involved: simulated patients, actual patients, faculty, residents, nurses, even each other! Sometimes the feedback is formal and written; sometimes it's verbal; and sometimes all you get is a raised eyebrow or a smile. Sometimes it's rough, other times it's SMART. So M2s Zach Grissom, Sahana Sarin, Srishti Mathur, and Jay Miller give their take on this vital skill in medicine: using feedback as data, as fuel for growth. They share stories of getting useful and useless feedback. And whether you love it or hate it, you'll leave with a playbook for using feedback to boost your success in medical school and your career. Also, we discuss a study on AI “de-skilling,” and recent shifts in the amount of research medical students are doing versus the number of service and humanities experiences they're doing. Episode credits: Producer: Dave Etler Co-hosts: Zach Grissom, Srishti Mathur, Sahana Sarin, Jay Miller We Want to Hear From You: YOUR VOICE MATTERS!

We talk a lot about AI as if it can fix broken systems. But what happens when the underlying data is too messy, too slow, or too disconnected to support anything useful? That's the problem Manish Sood, founder and CTO of Reltio, has spent the last decade working to solve. Reltio is not your average data company. It sits behind some of the world's most recognisable brands, helping names like L'Oréal, Pfizer, HP, and CarMax modernise how they manage and activate data across the business. What they all share is a recognition that outdated systems and disconnected records don't just slow down insights. They actively block innovation. Manish breaks this down with uncommon clarity. He calls it “data debt”—the invisible burden of stale, incomplete, or fragmented information that quietly kills speed and adds risk. It's not just a technical problem. It's a leadership challenge, especially as businesses adopt generative AI tools that rely on clean, contextual data to function reliably. We explore how real-time intelligence is changing the way companies operate across customer experience, fraud detection, and supply chain resilience. Manish shares examples from enterprise clients who have moved from legacy systems to unified platforms, and how that shift enabled smarter decision-making at scale. From personalised retail offers to proactive healthcare outreach, the stories point to one common truth: if the data isn't trusted, the AI cannot be either. There's also a new role emerging inside many companies—the data steward as AI enabler. These are the people ensuring that data isn't just stored, but shaped. Human-guided, explainable, traceable. That clarity is key to responsible AI, especially in sectors where compliance and reputation are tightly linked. Manish also explains how Reltio's platform helps businesses protect against AI vulnerabilities by enabling resilient data pipelines, consistent governance, and real-time monitoring. In a world where data is created and used simultaneously, batch syncing is not enough. Real-time pipelines give companies the confidence to experiment with AI without falling into chaos. If your business is chasing innovation without cleaning up its data layer first, this conversation is a wake-up call. Manish shows that the future of AI isn't about who builds the best model. It's about who feeds it the best foundation. ********* Visit the Sponsor of Tech Talks Network: Land your first job in tech in 6 months as a Software QA Engineering Bootcamp with Careerist https://crst.co/OGCLA
