Cold email used to be a reliable way to fill your pipeline. But today? You send 1,000 emails and get 2 replies—if you're lucky. So does cold email still work? The harsh truth is that top reps are still booking 8x more meeting with cold email. And this course shows you how.

In this episode, I talk about why urgency is often the enemy of alignment, the power of pause: responding vs. reacting, emotional decisions vs. emotionally honest ones, how to hold space for truth, even when feelings are high and more.CONNECT WITH ME…→ Instagram — @mattgottesman→ My Substack — mattgottesman.substack.com → Apparel — thenicheisyou.comRESOURCES…→ Recommended Book List — CLICK HERE→ Workshops — CLICK HERE→ Masterclass — CLICK HEREWORKSHOPS + MASTERCLASS:→ Need MORE clarity? - Here's the FREE… 6 Days to Clarity Workshop - clarity for your time, energy, money, creativity, work & play→ Write, Design, Build: Content Creator Studio & OS - Growing the niche of you, your audience, reach, voice, passion & incomeOTHER RELATED EPISODES:You Don't Need to Reinvent Yourself… You Need to Remember YourselfApple: https://bit.ly/3ImWKgYSpotify: https://bit.ly/4nJAKwY

What if I told you that the words you choose can have an impact on your bottom line? One of the best ways to attract affluent clients is by choosing the right words–words that not only magnify the worth of your work but sow the seeds of success. That means discarding limiting words like "expensive" and "cheap" and embracing empowering language that reflects the true value of your projects and services. But, that's not to say that this is an easy fix! Amending how you use and choose words in your vocabulary can be one of the most difficult changes you can make because the way we speak is so patterned and ingrained in our minds. But, if you can make the changes with fidelity in all aspects of your life–even behind the scenes–you will shift your world and your worth. Join me in today's episode for my suggestions for the words you need to eliminate and those you should adopt to sound more on-brand for your affluent clients and support your bottom line on the way.  In this episode, you will hear: How word choices can increase the worth of your projects and attract affluent clients The impact of client language on the perception of design services and projects. Words to avoid to help you step away from perpetuating limiting beliefs Suggestions for using more creative, empowering language and replacing cliched or negative phrasing Follow and Review: We'd love for you to follow us if you haven't yet.

“Entrepreneurship is in everyone. It just gets expressed in different ways.” Luke Williams Show host Laurie Barkman welcomes Luke Williams, Founder/CEO of IdeaSkills and Clinical Associate Professor of Innovation and Design at NYU Stern School of Business.  They discuss whether entrepreneurship can be taught and delve into the importance of fostering innovative mindsets within established companies. Luke shares insights from his book 'Disrupt' and discusses the balance between maintaining business continuity and introducing disruptive ideas. Luke also emphasizes the significance of learning over investment and provides advice for business owners struggling with innovation. The episode concludes with Luke's journey from Australia to becoming an educator and innovation expert and his passion for creating more competent innovators. Takeaways: Continuously work on developing the capabilities needed to be competitive in the future alongside keeping the existing business running. This is crucial for maintaining a balance between today's needs and future opportunities. Create diverse teams to ensure a wide range of perspectives and ideas. This diversity can foster innovative thinking and help develop balanced solutions that might not emerge from a homogenous group. Encourage the influx of fresh, disruptive thinking and assess the value of ideas based on how much they help the organization learn and adapt. Develop a “test and learn” budget to experiment with new ideas without the pressure of immediate returns. Allow small-scale testing of innovative ideas to see what works and can then be scaled up.   This Show Is Sponsored by The Business Transition Sherpa® 100 percent of owners will leave their business one day. But few are prepared. Are you? Get your copy of the Amazon best-selling book by nationally recognized expert, Laurie Barkman that reveals how to build business value and plan for succession, transition, or selling the business on your terms....what every entrepreneur needs to know.    ✨

Čechům se díky cestování zlepšil vkus, říká Jiří Stopka - muž, který před třiceti lety začal učit Čechy nakupovat prémiový světový design. „Vnímání designu v Česku se hodně se to posunulo. Už je to méně na oko, dnes prostě lidé chtějí být obklopeni kvalitními hezkými věcmi,“ říká v rozhovoru pro SZ Byznys Jiří Stopka, majitel firmy Stopka Design. Ještě před dvaceti lety byl podle něj design v Česku spíše na efekt. Kdo měl peníze, investoval je primárně do věcí, které byly vidět.„Jako první investovali do auta, pak oblečení, šperků, pak to byl ten dům, ale hlavně z venku. Až teprve poté si řekli, teď je na řadě interiér. Interiérový design byl v tom potravinovém řetězci až úplně na konci. Dnes je to jiné. Lidé raději investují do interiéru domova, kde jsou víc času než v autě,“ popisuje Jiří Stopka. Nejvíc je změna podle něj vidět u šaten. „Ještě před deseti lety by si řekli, že do šatny nikdo nechodí, dnes už si i tyto prostory dělají značkové a hlavně pro sebe,“ dodává. Rozhovor vznikl během Mezinárodního filmového festivalu Karlovy Vary.

For so long, we've thought that the 4,000 hit club was one of the most exclusive in baseball history, with just two members. But on the 98th anniversary of Ty Cobb's 4,000th hit, Mike and Bill are joined by Sports Reference's Executive Director of Design, Negro Leagues expert and Latin baseball researcher Adam Darowski (@adarowski.bsky.social) to talk about his presentation at SABR 53, and how much larger that club actually is. The answer, and the players on it, will surprise you and hopefully expand your horizons about what should count toward the record book of baseball. Plus, happy birthday to Rubén Gómez and to Jesse Tannehill! And farewell to Mark Esser, Jack Curtis, Rod Nichols, and Jason Conti.

In this episode of The Industrial Real Estate Show, I had the pleasure of speaking with Vance Lazar from Pioneer Architecture. Vance has a long and impressive background in architectural design, with a strong focus on logistics and industrial facilities. He walked me through his career path, from early work in visualization to launching his own firm that's dedicated to logistics. Vance prefers the term "logistics" over "industrial" because he believes the field is all about speed, efficiency, and true collaboration.We covered a lot of ground, including site planning, ceiling heights, bay spacing, and growing power demands from electrification and automation. Vance talked about the importance of understanding local markets and how design needs shift from place to place, like Phoenix versus Indiana. He also highlighted how critical it is to work closely with partners across all disciplines, whether it's engineers or contractors, to avoid missteps and improve project outcomes.One of the most fascinating parts was Vance's explanation of how his team uses Revit and advanced visualization tools to create immersive virtual walk-throughs. Clients can experience a space before a shovel hits the ground, which helps speed up the entire process. We wrapped up with a personal moment, as Vance shared that his son is starting an internship in logistics and that my book played a small part in inspiring that path. It was a great conversation and I really appreciated his insight.About:Vance Lazar, originally born in Las Vegas but raised in California alongside his identical twin brother Kirk, has returned to his roots by obtaining his architectural license in Nevada. With extensive expertise spanning six other States including Texas, Louisiana, Georgia, Indiana, Ohio and Kentucky – Lazar's homecoming promises a blend of fresh perspectives and innovative designs for Nevada's Logistics Market.Reflecting on his hometown roots, Lazar reminisces, “Though raised in California, Vegas has always been in my blood. We used to joke that we were born on a craps table, with Mom rolling snake eyes.” Local stakeholders eagerly anticipate collaborating with Lazar on upcoming projects, recognizing his talent as a driving force behind elevating Nevada's built environment. With his license secured, Lazar is prepared to redefine the architectural narrative of his beloved Las Vegas and beyond, including the industrial spaces vital to the state's economic landscape.Connect:Website: http://pioneerarchitecture.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vance-lazar-1975a412--

Post-Dispatch podcasts page: https://go.stltoday.com/0hfn43 Please consider subscribing: https://go.stltoday.com/9aigz5 With Major League Baseball's July 31 trade deadline rapidly approaching, the Cardinals are still considering what direction they'll head. The front office has wished for "tough decisions" at the deadline and "excitement," while acknowledging that the way they head may not be clear 72 hours ahead of the deadline, if at all. History suggests they'll explore the nebulous middle -- neither seller nor buyer, adding to patch holes this year and beyond without giving up too much from the future for now. The wild card this season is it's John Mozeliak's last trade deadline as president of baseball operations, and is there one last trick he'd like to pull before yielding his office and desk to Chaim Bloom?  Sports columnist Jeff Gordon joins baseball writer Derrick Goold to discuss the deadline, the All-Star Game's bananas finish, and deliver his midterm grades on every corner of the Cardinals' roster. Did he grade on a curve? Or did he stick to the standards of past years? In its 13th season as one of the leading podcasts covering the Cardinals and discussing baseball, the Best Podcast in Baseball is brought to listeners weekly by Closets by Design of St. Louis. BPIB is a production of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, StlToday.com, and Derrick Goold.

Episode 483 / Steven CoxSteven Cox (b. 1986, Aberdeen) is a Scottish artist who lives and works in Edinburgh, Scotland. He holds a BA in Painting from Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art & Design, University of Dundee, and an MA in Curating and Contemporary Art Theory from the University of Edinburgh.Cox is known for his vibrant abstract oil paintings, which explore materiality and mark-making. Over the past decade, he has developed a distinctive process involving the transfer of thick layers of oil paint onto canvas using plastic sheets. His work is deeply informed by an interest in the built environment, topography, and defaced surfaces, resulting in a visual language that oscillates between colour field painting and abstract expressionism. Cox is represented by Halsey McKay Gallery in New York. He has held numerous solo exhibitions internationally, including at Halsey McKay Gallery and A Hug From The Art World (New York, USA); Galerie Jérôme Pauchant (Paris, France); Annarumma Gallery (Naples, Italy); and Galleri Benoni (Copenhagen, Denmark). He has also exhibited in various international group exhibitions and artist residencies. His work has been featured in publications such as Modern Painters Magazine, ArtNews, ArtInfo, Wall Street International, Copenhagen Contemporary, Art F City, and Dust Magazine.More information: www.stevencox.co.ukInstagram: @studiostevencoxIn addition to his art practice, Steven Cox is the founder of Hunted Projects, a contemporary art gallery and curatorial platform based in Edinburgh. Established in 2011, Hunted Projects fosters unique collaborations with both emerging and established artists. Central to its ethos is a commitment to conducting in-depth interviews that provide insight into each artist's creative process and conceptual approach. These dialogues often inform the curation of site-specific solo and group exhibitions that amplify the artists' voices in compelling and innovative ways. More information: www.huntedprojects.comInstagram: @huntedprojects

Many dietitians tell me they started their businesses dreaming of freedom and flexibility, only to find themselves working more hours than ever, being available on nights and weekends, and constantly feeling behind. Maybe you've been telling yourself that working evenings and weekends is just "what it takes" to build a successful practice. That being available 24/7 is what makes you professional. That packing your schedule full is the only way to make decent money. But what if all of that is just programming from a system that was never designed to support you in the first place?   WHAT YOU'LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE In this episode, I'm sharing how to build a freedom-based business model that allows you to design your dream schedule without sacrificing professionalism or profitability. This is for ambitious dietitians who are tired of working more hours than they did in clinical and are ready to build a business that supports the life they want to live. Here's the breakdown:  Why traditional "professional" scheduling keeps you small and exhausted The three pillars of a freedom-based business model that increase profitability How to do the Dream Schedule Exercise to map your ideal work week Energy alignment strategies that help you work fewer hours while making more money Client communication scripts for confidently setting schedule boundaries How to handle pushback when people expect you to be available 24/7 Why your dream schedule isn't a luxury, it's a business necessity The ripple effect of modeling healthy boundaries for your clients   RESOURCES & LINKS Free Resource: The Private Practice Foundations Blueprint  Related Episodes: Episode 326: Finding Joy & Fulfillment in Your Career (even when you're feeling stuck) Episode 296: Time, Energy, and Money   CONNECT & TAKE ACTION Find Christine: Email: christine@manipuracentre.co Podcast: Make More Money as a Dietitian on Apple Podcasts | Spotify Community: Join 1200+ dietitians in The Make More Money as a Dietitian Community  Instagram: @money.mindset.dietitian Website: manipuracentre.co   Your Next Steps: Step 1: Take the Energy Audit Challenge Track your energy levels every two hours for one week, then compare it to your current schedule to see where you're wasting your peak energy on low-value tasks.

Sua relação com o movimento começou ainda na infância, por meio da natação. Na adolescência, vieram o balé, o jazz e as participações em torneios escolares de basquete e handebol. Ao mudar de cidade para cursar moda, o esporte acabou ficando de lado. Depois de um tempo financiando academias de ginástica, passou a treinar com um professor que a estimulava a correr alguns minutos antes dos treinos. Cada minuto era um sacrifício, até que, influenciada pelo então namorado, passou a correr também aos finais de semana. Foi em março de 2014, ao participar de uma corrida de 4 km, que algo mudou. A experiência foi marcante e deu início a um novo significado em sua relação com o esporte. Já trabalhando na marca esportiva da Lupo, passou a participar das corridas de rua patrocinadas pela empresa, unindo o prazer ao trabalho. Chegou a completar uma meia maratona e experimentou também as corridas fora do asfalto. Tudo isso em meio a um transtorno alimentar, que nessa fase se intensificou e a levou a buscar ajuda psicológica. Em 2018, teve alta, mas uma lesão a afastou da corrida, levando-a a iniciar no crossfit. Com mais de 13 anos de atuação no mercado esportivo, uniu a formação em Design de Moda a uma carreira voltada ao desenvolvimento e à comunicação de produtos que ela mesma usa e aprova. Hoje, está de volta à corrida, treinando com orientação e motivação renovada, construindo sua história como corredora amadora e profissional do esporte. Conosco aqui, a gerente de produto e marketing da Lupo Sport, crossfiteira e corredora apaixonada pelo movimento, a araraquarense, Roberta Lopes Lucio. Inspire-se!

When you're outgunned, under-resourced, and facing giants, success takes more than speed. It takes teamwork, message discipline, and relentless coordination.That's how the Rebel Alliance defeats the Galactic Empire, and it's how great B2B marketing teams win in the real world. In this episode, we unpack marketing lessons from the Star Wars saga with special guest Eric Herzog, CMO at Infinidat.Together, we explore what B2B marketers can learn from thinking like a startup, aligning cross-functional teams, and building content strategies that deliver across every touchpoint.About our guest, Eric HerzogEric Herzog is the Chief Marketing Officer at Infinidat. Prior to joining Infinidat, Herzog was CMO and VP of Global Storage Channels at IBM Storage Solutions. His executive leadership experience also includes: CMO and Senior VP of Alliances for all-flash storage provider Violin Memory, and Senior Vice President of Product Management and Product Marketing for EMC's Enterprise & Mid-range Systems Division.What B2B Companies Can Learn From Star Wars:Business is a team sport. Great marketing doesn't happen in silos. Whether you're a startup or a global enterprise, success depends on alignment across every function. Eric says, “In marketing, having all kinds of people running around with different functions is wrong. They all need to work together in what I call a completely vertically integrated marketing.” Your message, your content, your sales strategy. it all has to move as one.Message discipline wins hearts and minds. When you can't outspend the competition, out-message them. A clear, consistent story can be your greatest weapon. “You need to win the hearts of the minds of your customers, and your prospects, and your channel, and your sales team,” Eric says. If your message isn't aligned, neither is your market.Think like a startup (no matter your size). Speed, focus, and adaptability aren't just startup traits; they're must-haves for any marketing team. Eric explains, “ The most successful big companies in overall functions, as well as in their marketing function, try to act like a startup.” Whether you're leading a lean team or navigating a Fortune 500 org, it's that startup mindset that helps you outmaneuver slower, more bureaucratic competitors.Quote“Business is a team sport, and a subteam of marketing as part of the business is a team sport too. If you don't work as a team, the empire will crush you. You need to be like the Rebel Alliance and all work together.”Time Stamps[0:55] Meet Eric Herzog, CMO at Infinidat[01:08] Why Star Wars?[01:54] Role of CMO at Infinidat[03:03] Origins of Star Wars[08:52] B2B Marketing Takeaways from Star Wars[30:04] Infinidat's Content Strategy[33:39] Final Thoughts and TakeawaysLinksConnect with Eric on LinkedInLearn more about InfinidatAbout Remarkable!Remarkable! is created by the team at Caspian Studios, the premier B2B Podcast-as-a-Service company.

In this conversation, Dan Frommer, founder and editor in chief of The New Consumer, discusses the complexities of consumer behavior, particularly in relation to food choices. He explores the dichotomy between what consumers say they want and what they actually purchase, emphasizing the influence of technology, marketing, and generational differences. The discussion also touches on the challenges posed by ultra-processed foods and the importance of real food in promoting health and well-being. Throughout the conversation, Frommer shares insights from his research, highlighting the need for education and understanding in navigating consumer trends.Takeaways:Understanding consumer behavior is crucial for effective marketing.There is often a gap between what consumers say they want and what they actually buy.Food choices are influenced by technology and social media.Generational and gender differences play a significant role in food preferences.Education about food and health is essential for consumers.Surveys can provide valuable insights but have limitations.Real food is preferable to ultra-processed options for health.Trust in institutions is declining, leading consumers to rely on influencers.Personalization in food choices is becoming more important.Gratitude and mindfulness can enhance consumer satisfaction. Sound bites:“The healthiest foods that make people also the happiest are grapes, blueberries, and broccoli.”“Chocolate makes Gen Xers happier than any other product makes any other generation in all our research.”“I'm really interested to see companies finding ways to help people to make food choices that are not only considered smart on a macro level, but are the right thing for them personally.”“Younger people believe that grocers, online grocers especially, have a responsibility to recommend healthy food.”“Ultra-processed foods, a great example of something where people have very strong opinions about it, but don't actually know what they are.”“It's very hard to get Americans to agree on anything, but something that both Democrats and Republicans agree on in our research is that the government should be doing more to regulate ultra processed food than it has in the past.”“There's increasing awareness around seed oils. Some people are convinced that they are toxic and that they are killing Americans and making us all have terrible health. Other people, including scientists, are saying that is nonsense.”“The US is not in a recession, but most people think it is. So what do do about that?”“The people who are buying the cheapest, least environmentally friendly stuff are also the ones who are saying that they are more willing to go out of their way and spend more money for the environment.”“I think if we all just ate more real food, I think that would probably have a better outcome for so many different elements of the food chain of our health, wellness, etc.”Links:Dan Frommer on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/fromedome/The New Consumer - https://newconsumer.com/The New Consumer on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/newconsumer/The New Consumer on X - https://x.com/newconsumerThe New Consumer on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/newconsumerConsumer Trends: Food Feelings Matrix - https://newconsumer.com/2025/05/consumer-trends-food-feelings-healthy-happy/Consumer Trends: Food & Wellness 2025 - https://newconsumer.com/2025/03/introducing-the-consumer-trends-2025-food-wellness-special-report/How Americans really think about seed oils, Poppi & Olipop, and MAHA - https://newconsumer.com/2025/03/how-americans-really-think-about-seed-oils-poppi-olipop-and-maha/Consumer Trends: Beauty Special 2025 - https://newconsumer.com/2025/04/introducing-the-consumer-trends-beauty-special-2025/…Brands for a Better World Episode Archive - http://brandsforabetterworld.com/Brands for a Better World on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/brand-for-a-better-world/Modern Species - https://modernspecies.com/Modern Species on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/modern-species/Gage Mitchell on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/gagemitchell/…Print Magazine Design Podcasts - https://www.printmag.com/categories/printcast/…Heritage Radio Network - https://heritageradionetwork.org/Heritage Radio Network on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/heritage-radio-network/posts/Heritage Radio Network on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/HeritageRadioNetworkHeritage Radio Network on X - https://x.com/Heritage_RadioHeritage Radio Network on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/heritage_radio/Heritage Radio Network on Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/@heritage_radioChapters:03:00 Understanding Consumer Behavior05:59 Food Feelings: Happiness vs. Health08:58 Gender and Generational Differences in Food Preferences12:10 The Role of Technology in Food Choices15:04 The Impact of Ultra-Processed Foods18:02 Consumer Awareness and Education20:49 The Future of Food Consumption23:58 Cultural Shifts in Food Perception37:13 Raising Awareness on Food Safety38:04 The Complexity of Defining Health39:26 Evolving Perspectives on Nutrition41:01 Influencers vs. Experts in Health42:57 The Fragmentation of Media and Trust47:16 The Debate on Seed Oils48:47 Consumer Behavior vs. Intentions53:14 Using Research Effectively59:10 Personal Insights and Recommendations01:06:10 The Importance of Real FoodSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
