Send us a textSometimes the most powerful business lessons come from admitting we were wrong. After years of dismissing social media marketing in favor of email strategies, I've discovered a system that's transforming how coaches and consultants generate clients from their social platforms—without being pushy or sales-focused.Social media can be a powerful channel for generating clients when approached as a conversation starter rather than a passive billboard for your services. Every notification represents an implicit request for help, providing opportunities to initiate authentic conversations that can lead to client relationships.• Content alone doesn't convert; it's the conversations sparked by content that drive sales• The system follows a simple path: Content → Conversation → Client• Post feed content that explains your expertise and approach• Use interactive story features (polls, sliders, questions) to identify engaged followers• Follow up on engagement with friendly, non-salesy messages• Every like, comment and story reply is someone subtly raising their hand• Be consistent with valuable content that clearly explains how you help• Multiple sales channels (email, social, community) create more opportunities for conversation• No need for cold DMing or sleazy tactics - just respond to the interest signals already there• This approach works regardless of your following sizeComing soon: I'll be officially announcing the Skool Community this Friday.

It has probably happened to you before.You and a friend are talking—not texting, not DMing, not FaceTiming—but talking, physically face-to-face, about, say, an upcoming vacation, a new music festival, or a job offer you just got.And then, that same week, you start noticing some eerily specific ads. There's the Instagram ad about carry-on luggage, the TikTok ad about earplugs, and the countless ads you encounter simply scrolling through the internet about laptop bags.And so you think, “Is my phone listening to me?”This question has been around for years and, today, it's far from a conspiracy theory. Modern smartphones can and do listen to users for voice searches, smart assistant integration, and, obviously, phone calls. It's not too outlandish to believe, then, that the microphones on smartphones could be used to listen to other conversations without users knowing about it.Recent news stories don't help, either.In January, Apple agreed to pay $95 million to settle a lawsuit alleging that the company had eavesdropped on users' conversations through its smart assistant Siri, and that it shared the recorded conversations with marketers for ad targeting. The lead plaintiff in the case specifically claimed that she and her daughter were recorded without their consent, which resulted in them receiving multiple ads for Air Jordans.In agreeing to pay the settlement, though, Apple denied any wrongdoing, with a spokesperson telling the BBC:“Siri data has never been used to build marketing profiles and it has never been sold to anyone for any purpose.”But statements like this have done little to ease public anxiety. Tech companies have been caught in multiple lies in the past, privacy invasions happen thousands of times a day, and ad targeting feels extreme entirely because it is.Where, then, does the truth lie?Today, on the Lock and Code podcast with David Ruiz, we speak with Electronic Frontier Foundation Staff Technologist Lena Cohen about the most mind-boggling forms of corporate surveillance—including an experimental ad-tracking technology that emitted ultrasonic sound waves—specific audience segments that marketing companies make when targeting people with ads, and, of course, whether our phones are really listening to us.“Companies are collecting so much information about us and in such covert ways that it really feels like they're listening to us.”Tune in today.You can also find us on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and Google Podcasts, plus whatever preferred podcast platform you use.For all our cybersecurity coverage, visit Malwarebytes Labs at malwarebytes.com/blog.Show notes and credits:Intro Music: “Spellbound” by Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Outro Music: “Good God” by Wowa (unminus.com)Listen up—Malwarebytes doesn't just talk cybersecurity, we provide it.Protect yourself from online attacks that threaten your...

In this episode, I share insights on how health professionals can scale their businesses to achieve consistent revenue without sacrificing client success. I discuss the limitations of traditional education and certifications that fail to teach business growth skills and emphasize the importance of creating revenue streams that do not rely on constant personal presence.Drawing from my own experiences of overcoming personal challenges, such as illness and accidents, while maintaining my business operations, I introduce a pressure-free, permission-based sales system and provide guidance on shifting perspectives, educating clients, and building sound business practices. I also address the psychological barriers health professionals face with selling, the importance of value, and the necessity of managing expectations.***Help Us Help More People.

D&D does combat well. It can slow down time and can be more or less crunchy than you like, but it definitely creates aa play area that a new DM can handle during a session.

Elsewhere, Ollie embarrasses himself by DMing his TikTok twin (who is not responding), Drake is lurking around Australia throwing money at pretty women, and Ro is questioning if using a brown emoji when you're white is a subtle crime.
