With so many shifting variables — from ad spend to competition to inventory fluctuations — how can companies predict sales and plan budgets without wasting resources or missing opportunities? Amazon forecasting and automation veteran Todd VanderStelt and eCommerce strategist Sam Hager have developed a forecasting method for Amazon brands. They emphasize simplifying forecasting through a top-down model that uses a few key data inputs — ad spend, seasonality, and organic growth — to generate highly accurate predictions. Sam and Todd advise building forecasting tools that align teams around data, tie budgets directly to performance, and factor in real-world contexts, like promotions or unexpected press coverage, to make informed decisions. In this episode of The Digital Deep Dive, Aaron Conant talks with Todd VanderStelt and Sam Hager, Co-founders of MixShift, about building accurate and actionable Amazon forecasting models. Together, they explain why top-down forecasting outperforms traditional methods, how linking ad spend to revenue improves planning, and the future innovations transforming eCommerce analytics.

In this thought-provoking episode of Cause & Purpose, data scientist and impact strategist Andrew Means joins Mike Spear to expose critical gaps in how the social sector uses data and evaluation. Drawing from his vast experience in the sector, Andrew reveals how many nonprofits are "flying blind"—lacking even basic data infrastructure to make strategic decisions. He shares practical frameworks like the "data hierarchy of needs" and emphasizes that data democratization, not expensive consultants, is the key to transformation. The discussion evolves into a broader critique of traditional philanthropy and a vision for evidence-based giving. Andrew explains why he joined Altruous as an advisor, seeing it as uniquely positioned to bridge the gap between oversimplified ratings and inaccessible academic research. He emphasizes that with potential government funding cuts ahead, organizations that can prove their impact through data will thrive while others struggle. Throughout, both hosts challenge the sector's resistance to general operating support, overhead myth, and top-down funding approaches. The episode concludes with Andrew's compelling case for transparency, acknowledging uncertainty in evaluations, and focusing on the only metric that truly matters: whether beneficiaries are actually better off.

LikeFolio's Landon Swan shares his bullish take on McDonald's (MCD) despite the fast-food giant's underperforming stock. Swan credits McDonald's success to its focus on value, citing the return of the value meal and successful promotions. He also points to the company's vast data reserves, which could give it an edge in implementing A.I.-driven efficiency improvements. Swan notes that while the broader fast-food industry is struggling, McDonald's is navigating the challenging landscape better than its peers, including Wendy's (WEN).======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

In this episode of the OnBase Podcast, host Chris Moody sits down with Craig Abramson of Workday to discuss how data quality, timing, and automation shape the future of account-based marketing (ABM) and experience (ABX).Craig's story, starting as a content writer, evolving through startup marketing, and now running enterprise-level ABX programs at Workday, offers a rare view into how strategy scales with data maturity. From early experiments targeting QuickBooks users to Workday's global predictive engagement models, Craig breaks down how precision targeting drives faster deals, cleaner funnels, and measurable growth.Key TakeawaysData quality is the foundation “Garbage in, garbage out” isn't a cliché, it's a law. Whether at a startup or Workday, the success of ABM hinges on accurate, verified, and purposeful data. A bad contact record can derail an entire funnel.Timing is the game-changer Intent data and predictive scoring help pinpoint the exact moment an account is ready to engage. Craig's own campaign once closed a $250M+ enterprise deal in just three months, half the usual cycle, simply because the timing was right.Start small, learn fast Even at large companies, Craig applies a startup mindset: test, pivot, refine. His early ABM wins came from focusing on a narrow list of accounts with shared pain points rather than broad campaigns.ABX + demand gen = harmony, not competition At Workday, the ABX team focuses on the top 15% of high-scoring accounts, while demand gen drives scale. Together they operate like retail tiers, demand gen as the “big box store,” ABX as the “personal shopper,” and 1:1 ABM as the “bespoke tailor.”Messaging makes or breaks sales Even the best solution fails with the wrong message. Alignment between marketing and sales must start with consistent, audience-specific messaging that speaks to pain points, not features.AI is the amplifier, not the author Craig uses AI tools like Gemini to analyze data sets in hours instead of days but stresses the importance of human instinct: “AI can't feel what will resonate, but it can help you see what you'd otherwise miss.”Quotes“The right message at the wrong time is just as bad as the wrong message altogether.”Tech RecommendationsDemandbase Salesforce Google GeminiMarketoHubSpotResource RecommendationsBlog:Niel Patel: Author: Neil Patel | Co Founder of NP Digital & Owner of UbersuggestPodcast:Martech Podcast: Marketing technology trends and tools.Shout-OutsMatthew Miller - Sr Principal, Global ABX.

What happens when cutting-edge analytics meet old-school competitiveness?Penn State pitching coach Will Jauss has the answer — and it's changing how college baseball develops pitchers. In this exclusive interview, Jauss takes us deep inside the Nittany Lions' pitching laboratory, where numbers meet nuance, and technology fuels transformation.From bullpen sessions wired with TrackMan, Rapsodo, and high-speed video, to in-game decision-making based on release consistency, spin efficiency, and pitch tunneling, Jauss reveals how Penn State blends science, structure, and feel into a unified system for success. But beyond the metrics, he emphasizes what can't be quantified — the mindset, discipline, and daily habits that make great pitchers great.Discover how Penn State's staff teaches its arms to command the moment, not just the strike zone; why command beats velocity every time; and how Jauss is preparing his pitchers to thrive against Big Ten lineups — and beyond.This isn't just a look at baseball's next frontier — it's a masterclass in how data, development, and determination come together to create pitchers built for the modern game.

Hate refreshing your Amazon rank only to feel stuck? We walk through a saner, smarter way to measure progress—one that puts you back in control of your author career. Instead of chasing daily sales blips, we focus on the data you can influence: podcast bookings, media hits, website traffic spikes, newsletter clicks, and the kind of social engagement that signals real interest. Along the way, we share how to build a simple marketing journal that captures what you did, when you did it, and what happened next, so you can repeat what works and ditch what doesn't.We also get honest about the myths that drain energy. Amazon rankings are noisy; follower counts can be hollow; daily review checks erode morale. The better path is tracking visibility and engagement that compounds: comments and shares over likes, replies and click‑throughs over opens alone, and local wins that build trust fast. We dive into practical ways to use Google Analytics to spot post‑placement traffic, test subject lines that drive action, and turn lead magnets and bonus content into measurable signals. Plus, Goodreads strategies and why targeted communities often outperform broad blasts.If you've ever asked, “Am I doing the right things?” this conversation offers a roadmap. Sales will come—on their schedule—not because of one big splash, but because your visibility stacked up over time. Want to shape future topics or get tailored advice?

Lauren shares her journey from working at Ritual and Scopely to building not just one, but two thriving agencies that are reshaping how brands approach PR, affiliate, and paid media. Her story is rooted in curiosity, courage, and a clear vision for how the media landscape is evolving. What stood out to me is how Lauren built Dreamday around the idea of “performance PR,” combining traditional press with measurable ROI through affiliate links. Then, she and her partners created Quality Media to bring media buying, creative, and paid amplification under one roof.  Together, the agencies form a closed loop where press, content, and paid all fuel each other, driving growth and brand equity in ways most agencies can't match. Here are some highlights from our conversation: * How Dreamday coined the concept of “performance PR” and why it's more relevant than ever.   * The origin story of Quality Media and its unique performance publishing model powered by The Quality Edit.   * Why the media landscape is shifting to diversified channels, such as TikTok, Substack, and even ChatGPT search.   * How AI is reshaping agency work and why Lauren calls Dreamday and Quality Media “people-first, AI-enabled agencies.”   * Lauren's personal journey as a mom, yoga teacher, and leader striving to create workplaces that become the highlight of her team's careers.   Join me, Ramon Vela, as I listen to the full episode to hear how Lauren is building intentional, future-ready agencies while staying grounded as a leader. This is a must-listen for founders, marketers, and anyone curious about the future of brand storytelling and performance marketing.   For more on Dreamday, visit: https://www.dreamday.la/ For more on Quality Media, visit:  https://www.qualitymedia.com/ If you enjoyed this episode, please leave The Story of a Brand Show a rating and review.  Plus, don't forget to follow us on Apple and Spotify.  Your support helps us bring you more content like this! * Today's Sponsors: Saral - The Influencer OS: https://www.getsaral.com/demo SARAL is the all-in-one influencer platform that finds brand-aligned creators, automates outreach, and manages everything in one place.
