Est-ce qu'on peut rester dans une niche quand on a l'impression de plafonner ? C'est la vraie question de cette leçon.Mon invitée aujourd'hui est Alizée Méhats, fondatrice de Maison Massillon, une marque de bijoux en porcelaine blanc et or, née sur Instagram alors qu'elle travaillait encore chez Chanel, et qui s'est imposée en 10 ans comme une référence auprès des futures mariées.Sa spécialité ? Réveiller un savoir-faire ancestral : les couronnes de cire que portaient nos grands-mères le jour de leur mariage. Un univers singulier avec un positionnement fort.Mais une question travaille Alizée : sa niche commence-t-elle à montrer ses limites ? Faut-il élargir la cible, se diversifier, attaquer un marché plus grand ?Avec Alizée, on explore une alternative souvent négligée, celle d'élargir sa niche plutôt qu'en sortir et on aborde un sujet que peu d'entrepreneurs osent vraiment poser : mesurer la valeur de ce qu'on a déjà construit avant de tout remettre en question.Une leçon très concrète pour celles et ceux qui hésitent entre approfondir leur singularité et courir après un marché plus grand, et qui veulent apprendre à choisir sans se brûler les ailes.Bonne écoute ✨CHAPITRAGE 00:00 – Introduction et la question d'Alizée02:11 – Le parcours d'Alizée : de Chanel à Maison Massillon06:24 – Sortir du mariage : est-ce vraiment la bonne question ?09:03 – Le « non bridal », une concurrence avec la terre entière13:56 – Élargir à l'international (États-Unis, Japon) plutôt que sortir de sa niche18:00 – Distribution, marketing push et pull, et ne pas se brûler les ailes Notes et références de l'épisode Pour retrouver Alizée Méhats : Sur LinkedInPour retrouver la Maison Massillon : Sur le site internetSur InstagramPour retrouver ma formation “Avoir une communication puissante” : Sur Demian.educationLe Replay du Grand Live - Les clés d'une marque incopiableHébergé par Audiomeans.

Amazon can take a shocking cut of your revenue before you even count product cost, shipping, and overhead, and that reality is forcing sellers to get far more disciplined about inventory and profit. We sit down with returning guest Chelsea Cohen to talk about what she's learned as SoStocked moves through acquisitions and into a larger corporate ecosystem, and why that shift makes real-time visibility into fees, forecasting, and unit economics even more important for day-to-day decisions.We get specific about the hidden margin killers that sneak up on Amazon FBA brands: storage fees, aged inventory fees, capacity constraints, and mismeasured products that land in the wrong FBA fee tier. Chelsea shares how smart sellers build a regular overstock plan, move slow inventory without panic, and think in contribution margin terms so they can spot which SKUs are quietly draining cash. We also talk through the pricing trap, why raising prices doesn't always work, and how to weigh profit dollars against the workload and complexity that come with higher volume at thinner margins.On the tactical side, we cover wasted ad spend audits, negative keywords, reimbursement opportunities (including AWD mistakes), and how Amazon Warehousing and Distribution can help with inbound and capacity when used as a lever instead of a full dependency. We close by looking at how AI is starting to move from “answer my question” to “recommend my next action” in inventory management, plus what needs to be in place so sellers can trust the numbers. If you got value from this, subscribe, share it with a seller friend, and leave a review telling us which fee or profit leak you're auditing first.Ready to scale your Amazon business?

What happens when someone who already made millions in the NFL chooses network marketing?That's exactly what former NFL All-Pro and 3x Pro Bowler Shawne Merriman breaks down in this episode.Most athletes chase another endorsement deal after retirement.Shawne looked for ownership.Known as “Lights Out” during his dominant years with the San Diego Chargers, Shawne built a massive personal brand through football, media, and business. But he also saw firsthand how fast fame, contracts, and sponsorships can disappear when the game ends.In this conversation, Shawne explains why he believes network marketing gives athletes, entrepreneurs, and influencers something traditional endorsements never could:Long-term leverage. Distribution. Recurring revenue. And ownership tied to personal influence.We also dive into: • Why most athletes struggle financially after sports • The difference between visibility and ownership • Why discipline matters more than hype • The mindset shift from employee thinking to entrepreneur thinking • The similarities between elite sports and elite network marketing teams • Building a brand that lasts beyond attention and relevanceWhether you're in direct sales, entrepreneurship, sports, or leadership, Shawne brings a perspective most people never hear from professional athletes.
BioDeri Tyton is an Award-Winning Writer/Producer/Director, who grew up in Chicago enjoyingKung Fu, comedy, and action movies. As a very imaginative child growing up, he became interested in how films were made, but it wasn't until 1999 when he was invited to P.A. on an independent film set, which prompted him to write the screenplay, TOOT'S & BLOW'S, in 2001. As a self-taught filmmaker, Deri produced three critically sought-out films: Welcome To The Southside, The Party Line, and Love Bones. In each of these films, Deri deals with personal themes of Love & Sacrifice.

He has since gone on to co-write web series, independent films, and television series, as well as produce a screenwriter's book entitled, The Film Mechanic: The Process to Writing A Screenplay That Works. He holds a Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Arts from Chicago State University and a Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing (Class Salutatorian) from Full Sail University.

Lewis Hamilton hat es seinen Kritikern eindrucksvoll bewiesen, dass er durchaus noch in der Lage ist einen Formel-1-Grand-Prix zu gewinnen. Der siebenmalige Weltmeister siegte in Barcelona und ist jetzt der ärgste Verfolger von Kimi Antonelli, der zwar seinem Teamkollegen George Russell ordentlich einen eingeschenkt hat am Sonntag, kurz darauf seinen Mercedes aber aus technischen Gründen abstellen musste. Dennis Lewandowski und Kevin Scheuren blicken auf die großen Stories des Wochenendes zurück, insbesondere auf die Teamdynamiken bei Mercedes und Ferrari, denn auch Charles Leclerc gerät mehr und mehr unter Druck.

Mark Pincus founded Zynga—the company behind Words With Friends, FarmVille, and Zynga Poker—and has arguably created more hit consumer products than anyone in history. At Zynga, eight of 10 major game launches became massive hits, reaching over a billion players. Over the past five years, Mark has been synthesizing everything he's learned about building successful consumer products and turning it into a book, Life at the Speed of Play, which comes out on June 23. This is the first interview he's done about the book.In our in-depth conversation, we discuss:1. His “Proven, Better, New” framework: copy what's proven, make it better so that 10 out of 10 people say “f*ck yes, I'll use this”—then add something new2. Why being less ambitious is the path to the most ambitious ideas3. His rule of thumb that your instincts are right 95% of the time, but your ideas are wrong 75% of the time4. “Kill hope before hope kills you”5.

Nous sommes le 11 août 1933. Plongeons-nous dans la lecture du journal « Le Soir ». En page 4, il est écrit à propos des nouveaux modes de consommations des Belges et des prix bas : « C'est une petite révolution psychologique. Le client n'entre plus pour chercher un objet déterminé sous des prix variables, mais pour voir celui des objets classés sous une même étiquette qui emportera sa préférence. (…) Avez-vous trois francs à dépenser ? Vous pouvez hésiter entre un mètre de cretonne imprimée, votre photographie sous cinq poses différentes, ou deux couples de saucisses chaudes. Maintenant si vous pouvez sacrifier dix francs, ce sont des possibilités sans nombre qui s'offrent à vous : une montre, une machine à râper le gruyère, un billard japonais, que sais-je ? On est stupéfait de voir la quantité d'objets dont nos pères se passaient, faute de les connaître, et qui se haussent sous nos yeux à la dignité d'articles d'utilisé courante. » Quinze ans plus tard, le 10 novembre 1948, le même journal se fend d'un « Pour payer moins cher et gagner du temps, faites vos achats au Super Marché Uniprix ». C'est aux origines du supermarché que nous remontons aujourd'hui… Invité : l'historien de la gastronomie Pierre Leclercq, membre du Centre de Gastronomie Historique, collaborateur scientifique de l'université de Liège.

Introduction Most distribution management tools were built in the nineties and haven't changed much since. Carriers and MGAs are onboarding agents manually, tracking licenses in spreadsheets, and managing compliance through email threads. Ido Deutsch spent nine years solving that problem from the inside - before realizing the solution was worth selling to the rest of the market. Deutsch is the co-founder of ProducerFlow, a distribution management platform that started as an internal tool at Agentero, the digital insurance network he helped build from a single client and barely a product in 2016 to a scaled distribution business. When carriers kept asking how Agentero was handling agent onboarding so efficiently, Deutsch knew the tool had a market of its own. ProducerFlow launched as a standalone product in March 2024. In this conversation, Josh Hollander and Deutsch dig into what carriers and MGAs consistently get wrong about distribution infrastructure, why the market no longer accepts SaaS-only tools, and why fixing your data before layering in AI is the only move that matters. Guest Bio Ido Deutsch is the Co-Founder of ProducerFlow and Head of Go-to-Market at Agentero, a digital insurance network connecting carriers, MGAs, and independent agencies. A serial entrepreneur who grew up in Israel and built three companies before moving to the US in 2014, he joined Agentero's founder Luis Pino while still at Berkeley's MBA program and spent the next nine years building the company's distribution network and technology from scratch. ProducerFlow, launched in 2024, automates agent onboarding, licensing, compliance, and distribution management for carriers and MGAs. Key Topics • Built from necessity, not theory - ProducerFlow wasn't designed in a whiteboard session. It was built because Agentero was onboarding hundreds of agencies a month and couldn't keep up manually. The existing market solutions were either too old, too rigid, or too expensive. So they built their own, and carriers started asking to use it. • The best clients are switching from something - Deutsch's most successful clients aren't building from scratch. They've already tried one of the legacy tools, overpaid, been underdelivered, and are ready for something that actually integrates with their existing stack. That frustration is the clearest buying signal. • SaaS-only is no longer enough - The market has shifted. Carriers don't want a tool; they want an outcome. ProducerFlow offers a full managed service for clients who want to outsource compliance entirely, or infrastructure-only for those who want to run it themselves. The key insight: whoever wins in distribution tech has to be willing to do the work, not just sell the platform. • Fix the data before you touch the AI - Deutsch's consistent message across the conversation: AI is only as good as the data it runs on. He's seen top-five carriers and major brokers with years of data that's disorganized, siloed, and hard to query. Layering AI on top of bad infrastructure gives confident wrong answers. Fix the foundation first. • Speed to onboard is the core metric - The time from meeting a new agency to the moment they can quote and bind is ProducerFlow's north star. Faster onboarding means better agent experience, higher retention, and more written premium. Everything else is secondary. • The CIO is gaining ground - Deutsch has watched the power dynamics inside carrier organizations shift. Head of AI titles are proliferating, but the real influence is moving toward CIOs and information security leaders as data privacy, AI governance, and "where does my data go" questions dominate every sales cycle. Notable Quotes "We couldn't find anything that worked for us. So we built our own. And then carriers started asking, how do you do that?" "Our best clients typically tried the solution already. They overpaid, were underdelivered, and then they see how ours works. We try not to over promise, but we definitely over deliver." "The market doesn't really accept SaaS-only tools anymore. They want you to solve an outcome, replace a whole function, and do the work." "Fix your data and fix how you look at things. Everything is going to be based on that. AI is only as good as your infrastructure. If the data isn't right, it will just give you very confident answers that are wrong."

By Doug Green “We're a partner-first company. It is in our DNA,” says Patrick Sheehan, Vice President of Channel Development and Distribution at Intermedia. In this episode of Technology Reseller News, recorded for the CCA community, I spoke with Patrick Sheehan, Vice President of Channel Development and Distribution at Intermedia, about a new approach to helping channel partners grow recurring revenue while reducing operational complexity. Intermedia describes itself as an intelligent cloud communications provider, bringing voice, video, messaging, contact center, collaboration and related services into one seamless, AI-powered platform. Sheehan noted that Intermedia supports thousands of partners and more than 150,000 businesses, with a strong focus on helping partners look good and keeping customers happy. The central topic of the conversation was Intermedia's Co-Op Partner Model, a program designed for partners who want to retain control over customer relationships and pricing, while Intermedia handles many of the back-end operational burdens that can slow growth. For many partners, cloud communications, AI, Microsoft Teams integration, and contact center services represent significant opportunities. But traditional models can also add complexity to billing, taxation, collections, support and administration. The Co-Op model is designed to remove much of that friction. With Co-Op, partners can maintain ownership of the customer relationship while Intermedia provides the operational infrastructure behind the scenes. That allows partners to focus on selling, serving customers and expanding existing accounts into new recurring revenue streams, with the potential to earn up to 2X more in profit compared to traditional models. Sheehan also discussed where partners may be leaving money on the table. Existing customer relationships often contain opportunities for voice, collaboration, AI-enabled communications, customer experience tools and Microsoft Teams-related services. By simplifying the path to offer those services, Intermedia is encouraging partners to revisit accounts they already know well. The conversation also covered Intermedia's broader partner-first strategy, including its focus on customer service, technical support and reliability. Sheehan highlighted Intermedia's ninth consecutive J.D. Power recognition for assisted technical support, along with the company's financially backed 99.999% uptime service-level agreement. For partners that have not engaged with Intermedia recently, Sheehan's message was direct: the opportunity has changed. Cloud communications is no longer just about replacing phone systems. It is about helping customers modernize communications, improve customer experience, adopt AI-enabled tools and create more flexible ways to work. The Co-Op model gives partners another way to participate in that opportunity without having to rebuild their own operations. Learn more about becoming an Intermedia partner.

Our guest on this week's episode is Andrei Quinn-Barabanov, supply chain practice lead at Moody's. New inflation reports came out this week showing that last month we reached the highest inflation rates of the past three years. Inflation is even higher when it comes to transportation cost increases. To help us understand how such inflation affects our supply chains, our guest joins DC Velocity's Senior News Editor Ben Ames.The market outlook for collaborative robots remains strong as the equipment advances to accommodate heavier duty use around the world. Senior Editor Victoria Kickham reports that new research from Interact Analysis that shipments of these cobots designed to work with and alongside humans are predicted to grow at an average annual rate of more than 17% between 2025 to 2030.Ben Ames reports that this week that a change is coming to robotic last mile fulfillment. Starship Technologies is an Estonian tech startup that makes autonomous, self-driving bots. If you've been on any large university campuses in the last few years, you've probably seen them driving along pathways and college quads, delivering small items like e-commerce orders for snacks and burritos. But now Starship says they plan to wind down their operations on U.S. university campuses and shift their focus to retail grocery chains and hot food delivery in cities across Europe and the U.S. Ben shares why the company has shifted their strategy.Articles and resources mentioned in this episode:Moody'sCobot shipments to rise more than 17% by 2030.

Hallo Hockeyfreunde, In dieser Folge sprechen wir über die aktuellen Gerüchte rund um einen möglichen Trade von Dylan Larkin. Wie realistisch wäre ein Wechsel nach Anaheim? Was würde ein solcher Deal die Ducks kosten? Außerdem diskutieren wir die große Frage: Würden wir Mason McTavish für einen Star-Spieler abgeben oder ist er ein unverzichtbarer Teil der Zukunft? Welche Spieler könnten stattdessen als Trade-Chips dienen? Und natürlich werfen wir einen Blick auf mögliche Trade-Ziele für die Ducks: Sollte General Manager Pat Verbeek selbst aktiv werden und einen Top-Spieler nach Anaheim holen?

Daniel and James kick off a packed ADSN rundown by celebrating hitting #1 in Namibia, then dive into Alphabet's staggering $80 billion capital raise arguing it's not just about compute buildout but a strategic move to suck capital away from soon-to-IPO competitors like SpaceX, Anthropic, and OpenAI. From there, they unpack the app distribution crisis created by agentic AI tools: everyone can build now, but the audience, budget, and creative genius to actually get discovered are nearly impossible to find.The back half covers the Substack vs. Beehiiv battle over audience ownership, why ChatGPT is becoming the new Facebook blue app, Apple's potentially risky WWDC AI strategy, and a Northbeam stat showing just 1.4% of Meta ad accounts produce 36% of all creative.

This week on The Food Professor Podcast, co-hosts Michael LeBlanc and Dr. Sylvain Charlebois welcome two special guests for a wide-ranging, no-holds-barred interview: Axel Schwan, President of Tim Hortons Canada & U.S., and Duncan Fulton, Chief Corporate Officer of Restaurant Brands International (RBI). With Dunkin' Donuts announcing its return to Canada and Canadians passionately debating the future of their most iconic coffee brand, Axel and Duncan showed up ready to answer the tough questions. In a candid 40-minute conversation, Schwan and Fulton open up about Tim Hortons' "Back to Basics" strategy — the largest consumer research project in the company's history — and the quality overhaul that followed: freshly cracked eggs replacing frozen patties in breakfast sandwiches, 40% more apple in the apple fritter, more Venetian cream in the Boston cream, and the removal of artificial colours, flavours and preservatives across the menu. They share how Tim Hortons serves four million guests a day across 4,000 restaurants owned by 1,500 Canadian franchisees, why traffic is the one metric Axel watches daily, and how the brand is winning younger consumers with its Quenchers platform — including the imminent launch of Popping Quenchers — plus celebrity partnerships with Justin Bieber and Ryan Reynolds. The duo also tackles the controversy head-on: Is the wave of announcements — 400 restaurant renovations, 80 new builds, a national hiring campaign — a reaction to Dunkin's arrival? Fulton sets the record straight on the temporary foreign worker debate, noting roughly 4,000 of 110,000 restaurant team members are part of the program, and explains how AI is being deployed to improve the team member experience, from labour scheduling to order accuracy. A rapid-fire round covers everything from the biggest public misconception about Tim Hortons to the products Canadians want back, while Michael shares his own fun factoid: he helped invent Roll Up the Rim during his Dixie Cup days. But first, we start with the food and agriculture news of the week. Sobeys gets served as the Competition Bureau flexes its new Competition Act powers to investigate property controls in Canadian grocery. We break down Ottawa's newly published AI strategy and what it means for agriculture and food, where Canada's persistent data deficit threatens to undermine even the best intentions. Then, the screwworm fly resurfaces in Texas, prompting the Canadian Food Inspection Agency to take targeted action — and sending cattle futures and already-high beef prices climbing. Sylvain also reports from Delaware, where he keynoted a healthcare conference on food as medicine and discovered a surprising threat to American farmland: hundreds of AI data centres being built on fertile soil. About UsDr. Sylvain Charlebois is a Visiting Professor in Food Policy and Distribution at McGill University and a Professor in Food Distribution and Policy in the Faculty of Management at Dalhousie University in Halifax.

Pet food looks like a food category, but it behaves like a trust category and nobody understands that better than Michael Meyer. Rose Hamilton, CEO of Compass Rose Ventures and co-host of The Story of a Brand Show, sits down with Michael for an operator masterclass that goes far beyond pet food into the deeper mechanics of how premium consumer brands get built, scaled, and sustained. With experience across Wellness Pet Food, Plum Organics, Restoration Hardware, I and Love and You, and Just Food for Dogs, Michael brings a rare pattern recognition that every founder, operator, and investor needs to hear. * Pet food is a trust category, not a food category. The dog or cat either eats it or doesn't. The pet parent either feels reassured or doesn't. Repeat purchase is the only real trust metric that matters, and building toward it requires discipline most brands skip. * Cats are the most underbuilt opportunity in premium pets. All the innovation went to dogs. Cat parents were always emotionally invested; the category just never gave them enough ways to express it. That is changing now, and it has to be intentional to work. * The Bobby Flay lesson every founder needs. Celebrity partnerships only work when they make the product promise more believable. Made by Nacho added depth to an existing thesis. It was not motion for motion's sake. * Distribution is not demand. Awareness is not trust. Getting on shelf is not the win. Turning and staying on shelf is the business. Scaling before your system is ready does not create growth, it creates expensive complexity. * Don't rush it. Michael's sharpest advice for founders under pressure to scale: take a breath, think it through, then come back. Speed without clarity is one of the most costly mistakes a growing brand can make. Join us in listening to this episode for one of the most practically useful operator conversations the show has ever produced. Rose and Michael cover category signals, acquisition lessons, channel strategy, celebrity partnerships, and the discipline required to scale without breaking what you built. Whether you are a founder, an operator, or an investor, this one will sharpen how you think about building consumer brands that last.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of the Talking Pools Podcast, host Natalie Hood sits down with Michael Thill, Regional Sales Manager with The Grit Game, to tackle some of the biggest misconceptions surrounding sales, distribution, retail operations, dealer support, and business growth in the swimming pool industry. Michael shares lessons learned from more than 15 years in retail, distribution, service, renovations, and manufacturer representation, offering a behind-the-scenes look at what really drives success in today's marketplace. From his unexpected introduction to the industry in 2011 as a part-time helper at Caribbean Pools to leadership roles with PoolCorp and now The Grit Game, Michael discusses the power of company culture, mentorship, relationship building, and why loving what you do can completely transform your career. Topics Covered in This EpisodeDo Dealers Only Care About Price?Michael explains why price is often the first question asked—but rarely the deciding factor. Customers and dealers alike are willing to pay more when they receive exceptional service, expert guidance, and genuine support. The conversation explores how value consistently outperforms price in long-term business relationships. Why Product Knowledge Still MattersThe discussion challenges the idea that customers should educate themselves before entering a retail store. Natalie and Michael explain why knowledgeable staff remain one of the most valuable assets a business can have and how ongoing education creates better customer experiences, stronger teams, and increased profitability. The Real Purpose of Retail StoresContrary to popular belief, customers don't only visit pool stores when something breaks. The episode explores how successful retailers create environments that foster loyalty, trust, community, and repeat business long after the initial sale. Distribution Is More Than Moving BoxesMichael shares what he learned working inside distribution and why great distributor representatives function as educators, problem-solvers, business developers, and strategic partners—not simply order takers. Inventory, Forecasting & Supply Chain RealitiesThe pair discuss common misconceptions about inventory availability, forecasting, lead times, and why communication between dealers, distributors, manufacturers, and reps is critical to maintaining product availability and supporting business growth. Building Better Dealer RelationshipsWhat makes a dealer easy to support? What creates challenges? Michael shares candid insights about adaptability, openness to change, communication, and why strong relationships remain one of the most powerful business tools available. Why Great Products Don't Always WinThe conversation explores why even outstanding products can struggle to gain market share and how education, awareness, promotion, and dealer buy-in often matter more than product quality alone. Promotion vs. DiscountingOne of the most practical discussions of the episode focuses on the difference between promoting products and discounting them. Michael explains why businesses often rush to markdowns before fully utilizing effective marketing, customer engagement, and event-driven promotion strategies. Key Takeaways Relationships outperform transactions. Product knowledge remains a competitive advantage. Great customer experiences create loyalty beyond price. Distribution and manufacturer reps can be valuable business partners. Forecasting and communication reduce inventory challenges. Education fuels growth at every level of the industry. Promotion creates excitement; discounts should be a last resort. Long-term success comes from investing in people, not just products.

In this episode, Alex speaks with Matt Zwolinski about whether markets are coercive, and why the answer is more complicated than either “markets are voluntary” or “capitalism is coercion.” They discuss Robert Hale's classic argument, the limits of standard libertarian responses, and why a better liberal defence of markets has to take real-world coercion seriously without treating all coercion as morally equal.

Mike Golembewski is an interactive designer, researcher, and writer running MWG Design & Research, an independent consultancy focused on immersive media, artistic practice, and emerging technology. In this episode, Mike breaks down the structural challenges facing cultural XR, the category of immersive work that functions more like theatre or documentary than gaming. We cover why festival-premiered XR experiences rarely survive beyond their premiere, why platform stores like Meta and Steam are fundamentally misaligned with this type of work, and what creators can do from day one to design for longevity. Mike also highlights real examples and explains why thinking about the long tail before writing a single line of code is the only approach that actually works.Subscribe to XR AI Spotlight weekly newsletter
Brandon Sedloff and Matt Schwartz explore the evolution of fund finance and private credit on The Distribution. Matt shares insights from his two decades in legal finance, including his journey from representing venture debt transactions to overseeing one of the world's largest law firm finance practices. The conversation examines how the financing landscape has fundamentally shifted over the past decade, with private credit funds taking on more complex transactions while banks have moved into back-leverage arrangements. Matt emphasizes the critical role of data strategy and AI adoption in modern fund operations, noting how GPs are using technology to improve underwriting and portfolio management. They discuss: - Why traditional underwriting standards are returning and how data analytics are improving investment decisions - How banks and private credit funds are increasingly collaborating rather than competing on deals - The role of insurance capital and hybrid structures in expanding fund finance options - Whether retail investors can successfully participate in illiquid private credit markets as valuation tools improve - Why technology and life sciences remain strong despite headlines suggesting otherwise This episode offers fund managers and private market professionals a clear-eyed view of where capital is flowing and how operational improvements can create competitive advantages.

Most independent practice owners know the practice and their personal life are supposed to be separate. Separate entities, separate accounts, separate tax returns. Almost none of them have built the structural separation that makes that true when things get hard. EP185 covers the three systems that explain why one bad quarter in the practice becomes a personal financial event, and the firewall that stops it. System 1 — The Entanglement: No formal salary. No distribution schedule. Whatever is left in the business account goes home with the owner. In a good month: $40,000. Mortgage, 529, investment contribution. In a bad month: $14,000, covered with personal savings. The savings account does not come back as fast as the practice does. System 2 — The Bad Quarter Multiplier: The cascade that runs from a billing disruption straight through to the owner's personal financial decisions. Collections drop. Distribution skipped. Mortgage still goes out. Investment contribution paused. Operational decisions made under financial stress — delay the hire, pull back on marketing, hold off on the software upgrade that would have fixed the billing gap that caused the problem. That practice is always one bad quarter away from making decisions a wealthier version of itself would never make. The Cascade in Numbers: Payer delays 45+ days → Operating account drops → Owner stops paying themselves first Denial rate spikes 5% to 14% → $28K/month delayed or lost → Personal savings tapped for household bills Key provider unexpected leave → Volume drops 30% → No distribution for 60 days Contract renegotiation stalls → 90 days cash flow uncertainty → Investment contributions paused indefinitely System 3 — The Firewall: A market-rate owner salary that does not move with revenue. A distribution schedule tied to net profit after a defined reserve threshold. Personal savings that build independent of what the practice has on hand. In a bad quarter: the salary still goes out, the distribution pauses, and the operational decisions come from strategy instead of personal financial pressure.

Rylan Foltz went from JP Morgan analyst to independent wealth advisor to co-founding WealthFeed — a marketing and prospecting platform helping financial advisors find better clients faster using predictive analytics and behavioral data. In this episode, Rylan walks through the full arc of that journey and unpacks the strategic decisions that took WealthFeed from zero to thousands of advisors in just two years.Jeff and Rylan dig into why the wealth management industry is so underserved by marketing technology, the power of building bottom-up before going enterprise, how to make a SaaS product genuinely sticky in a regulated industry, and why your distribution moat matters more than your product moat in an era where anyone can spin up a competing product overnight.Whether you're a first-time founder trying to crack product-market fit, or a scaling SaaS leader thinking through enterprise sales cycles, pricing strategy, and team-building, this episode delivers actionable insight on all fronts.Key Takeaways3:47 — The Origin of WealthFeed Rylan realized as a practicing advisor that organic growth was the hardest part of the job — and that the wealth management industry had almost no structured approach to marketing. That gap became the business.6:15 — Why Finance Is Marketing's Last Frontier Advisors can name the big firms but not their local competitors. The industry is dominated by aging, lifestyle-mode advisors who stopped teaching growth tactics — leaving a giant opportunity for a niche marketing platform.10:39 — What's Old Is New Again WealthFeed offers machine-written handwritten notes that look like wedding invitations. In a world saturated with digital communication, old-school physical outreach is standing out again.11:22 — Stop Thinking Leads, Start Building Assets Advisors shouldn't buy leads — they should build a database audience the way Budweiser buys Super Bowl ads: consistent, compounding, ROI over time.13:01 — Niche Marketing Builds Trust Generic messaging ("I help with retirement planning") signals you don't know your prospect. Hyper-specific messaging ("I work exclusively with SaaS co-founders on RSUs and equity comp") creates immediate trust and relevance.14:12 — The All-in-One Platform Advantage WealthFeed layers CRM, outbound marketing (LinkedIn, email, direct mail, handwritten notes), and proprietary data into one workflow — so advisors don't stitch together five point solutions.17:41 — Simplicity Over Power at Launch Early on, feature overload slowed adoption. The lesson: launch with one compelling use case (for WealthFeed, inheritance lead data), get users in the door, then upsell from there.20:55 — Your Moat Is Your Distribution AI lets anyone copy a product in a weekend. What can't be copied overnight is your relationships, your user base, and the custom integrations you've built into a customer's workflow.25:03 — Bottom-Up Enterprise Strategy WealthFeed got traction by signing individual advisors first, letting the grassroots demand bubble up to management — which created enterprise deals without having to wait in long procurement queues.27:09 — Don't Hunt Elephants Until You Can Afford To Enterprise deals can drag for three years. Without revenue from individual and SMB customers, a startup can starve waiting for that one big contract to close.29:28 — Hybrid Pricing: Access Fee + Usage Credits Flat subscriptions don't work when one advisor sends 20,000 handwritten notes and another logs in once a month. A hybrid model lets you charge for scale without penalizing light users.31:28 — Price High, Discount Down Starting low and raising prices creates churn and resentment. Starting at a premium and offering a promotional discount sets expectations — customers know the real value from day one.33:19 — Balancing Founder Vision vs. Customer Feedback A 50/50 split: take customer input seriously, but don't become a yes-man. The most successful founders — especially those who've lived the problem — trust their forward vision even when customers can't yet see it.35:59 — Build Infrastructure Before You're Drowning WealthFeed hired sales, dev, and customer success earlier than felt necessary. That foundation is now why their customer success "outperforms anyone else in the industry."38:30 — Flatten the Org to Connect Dev and Customer Tech teams that never see how the product is used build the wrong things. WealthFeed has engineers sit in on sales calls so they understand why features matter, not just what to build.39:45 — Let Compliance Work With You, Not Against You Instead of pitching firms on new compliance workflows, WealthFeed integrates into whatever compliance process already exists — dramatically speeding up enterprise approvals.Tweetable Quotes"Your moat is your distribution. Go-to-market has gotten extremely valuable because you could almost create the product overnight." — Rylan Foltz"Stop thinking about leads. Start thinking about building an audience, a database, an asset for life." — Rylan Foltz"No one wants a generalist. Everyone wants the best knee surgeon in the country. As an advisor, you've got to become really niche-focused." — Rylan Foltz"Start your pricing high. You can always discount down. It's really hard to raise prices." — Rylan Foltz"It's easier to sell one flavor of ice cream and say it's the best than to offer 32 flavors and create option overload." — Rylan Foltz"What's old is new. Everything shifted to digital, so old-school processes are how you stand out now." — Rylan Foltz"You'll be most successful solving a problem you personally went through. It comes across in your sales, your fundraising, everything." — Rylan Foltz"Don't get too caught up in enterprise until you build up the user base. Get revenue first, then you can afford to chase the elephants." — Rylan FoltzSaaS Leadership Lessons1. Niche down relentlessly — and mean it. Rylan didn't just say "we focus on financial advisors." WealthFeed built every feature, every data layer, and every compliance workflow around that single ICP. The more specific your niche, the stronger your trust signal, the better your retention, and the harder you are to displace. Generalist products get commoditized. Specialists get embedded.2. Distribution is the real product. In a world where a working SaaS product can be replicated in a weekend, your go-to-market is your most defensible asset. Relationships, user base saturation within target firms, custom integrations, and compliance workflow ownership are what prevent a competitor from walking in and saying "we do the same thing." Build distribution as intentionally as you build product.3. Start simple — layer complexity after adoption. Feature-rich doesn't mean better. WealthFeed launched with one use case (inheritance lead data) and expanded from there. Getting a user in the door on one powerful idea is vastly easier than selling a full platform. Upselling to an existing user is far more efficient than converting a prospect who's overwhelmed at first glance.4. Build your team infrastructure earlier than you think you need it. Founders often hire only when they're already underwater. Rylan and his team built out sales, dev, and customer success before they felt the pressure — and that head start compounded into top-tier customer outcomes. Infrastructure built under stress tends to crack. Infrastructure built with intention scales.5. Price to your value, then offer strategic discounts. Starting low might feel like a growth hack, but it sets a price anchor that's almost impossible to raise without friction. Starting at a premium gives you room to discount strategically, run promos, and still maintain perceived value. Customers who came in knowing the "real" price won't balk at renewal the way customers who got a surprise price hike will.6. Close the gap between your builders and your buyers. One of WealthFeed's most impactful structural choices: having engineers sit in on sales calls. When the people building the product understand how it's actually used — and why it matters — they build better, faster, and with more empathy. Kill the wall between tech and go-to-market.

What does it take to bring AI into businesses that run on physical work, human judgment, and processes nobody has ever written down?In this episode of Supra Insider, Marc Baselga and Ben Erez sit down with Noah Levin, founder of Serious People, to unpack what he calls being a “free-range AI consultant.” Noah explains why most of his work is business consulting from first principles rather than AI consulting, why agents still need humans to deliver real value, and how he groups AI for any company into three buckets: a coworker, an operator, and a product or engineering capability.They explore how AI is collapsing the distance between a conversation and a working prototype, why the new IP is business judgment instead of code, why he believes everything is becoming product management, and the humility it takes to solve problems on a client's terms inside companies that aren't, and shouldn't be, run like tech startups.If you're a product leader figuring out where AI actually creates leverage, an operator weighing whether to go independent, or a builder realizing that distribution now matters more than the thing you build, this episode is for you.All episodes of the podcast are also available on Spotify, Apple and YouTube.New to the pod?
