In this episode of In Demand, Asia and Kim continue their two-part series on SaaS marketing channels with a rapid-fire breakdown of the most common growth channels available to SaaS companies. They cover everything from word of mouth, SEO, and social ads to conferences, partnerships, PLG, engineering as marketing, ABM, and community building. Throughout the episode, Asia explains which channels tend to work best, where founders waste money, and why context always matters more than trends or generic advice. This episode is a practical guide to evaluating marketing channels, understanding the tradeoffs behind each one, and avoiding the trap of searching for a universal “best” growth strategy.

Episode SummaryThis week on Home In Progress, Dan starts off with one of the more entertaining detours the show has taken in a while: spite houses. Real buildings, built by real people, for the sole purpose of making someone else miserable. Then he gets into a deep dive on two-tone kitchen cabinets, answering six questions that almost always come up when people consider taking on that project. And he closes out with deck season, including why most product claims about longevity don't hold up in Michigan, and why RepcoLite's Deck and Dock Wood Protector works differently than most of what's out there.In This Episode[00:00] -- Show Preview[00:54] -- Spite Houses: When Homebuilding Gets Personal[15:26] -- Two-Tone Kitchen Cabinets: Six Common Questions Answered[41:25] -- Deck Season: What You Need to Know Right NowSegment 1: Spite Houses -- When Homebuilding Gets Personal [00:54]Most people who've had a bad run-in with a neighbor or a family member haven't responded by constructing an entire building. But spite houses are real, they show up throughout American history, and they're exactly what they sound like: buildings put up primarily to annoy, block, or inconvenience somebody else.The Tyler Spite House -- Frederick, Maryland [02:27]112 West Church Street, Frederick, MDIn 1814, the city of Frederick decided to extend Record Street straight through a piece of land owned by Dr. John Tyler, a wealthy ophthalmologist who was also credited as the first American-born physician to perform a cataract operation. Tyler fought the decision, lost, went home, and started thinking.He found an old local ordinance that said the city couldn't build a road through a parcel if construction on a substantial building was already underway there. So he hired a crew and overnight, they poured a foundation directly in the path of the road. When the road workers showed up the next morning, they found a hole in the ground, a crew of builders, and Dr. Tyler reportedly sitting in a chair watching the whole thing and looking very pleased with himself. The road was never built.Tyler finished the house. It ended up being a three-story Federal-style mansion with 17 rooms, over 9,000 square feet, 14-foot ceilings, and eight working fireplaces. He never actually lived in it. He already had a house right next door. The whole thing was just a very expensive way to win an argument.The Tyler Spite House still stands at 112 West Church Street in Frederick. It's been a bed and breakfast, been used as offices, and has been on and off the market for well over a million dollars for years. It's also rumored to be haunted, so there's that.The Boston Skinny House [05:57]44 Hull Street, North End, Boston (along the Freedom Trail, across from Copp's Hill Burying Ground)This four-story wooden house is 10 feet wide at its widest point and tapers down to just over nine feet in the back. At the narrowest spot inside, you can stand in the middle and touch both walls without fully extending your arms. There's no front door. You enter from a side alley.The story that's been passed around for generations goes like this. Two brothers inherited a piece of land from their father. One went off to fight in the Civil War. While he was gone, his brother stayed home and built himself a large, comfortable house on basically all of the inherited land. When the soldier brother came home and saw what happened, he had one thin sliver of land left to his name. So he built the narrowest house he could fit on it and positioned it to block his brother's light and kill his view.Whether that's all historically accurate is a little murky. But the house is real, it's still there, and if spite didn't build it, something at least a lot like spite was probably involved.The Plum Island Pink House [09:47]Newbury, Massachusetts, outside Newburyport near Plum IslandA pale pink house with a cupola, sitting completely alone in the middle of a salt marsh. No neighbors, no trees, no context. Just wetlands in every direction.Built around 1925, the story goes that a couple going through a divorce agreed the husband would build his wife an exact replica of the home they had shared in town. The catch was she forgot to specify where it had to be built. So he built it in the middle of an isolated salt marsh, with no fresh water and plumbing hooked up to saltwater. She allegedly took one look and refused to set foot inside.Whether that's true or legend, nobody can say for certain. But the house is still out there if you've ever made it up toward Plum Island.A Note on Exterior Color and Spite [12:43]Dan wraps the segment wondering if some of the truly baffling exterior color schemes you see driving around might have a little spite behind them. If you're going the other direction and want a color scheme that's actually beautiful, RepcoLite and Benjamin Moore can help. And if you do go bold, Benjamin Moore Aura covers beautifully no matter what color you choose.Current sale: Benjamin Moore Aura and many other premium Benjamin Moore exterior paints are 20% off at every RepcoLite location through May 25.Segments 2 and 3: Two-Tone Kitchen Cabinets -- Six Common Questions [15:26]Two-tone kitchen cabinets look great in photos. Then you stand in your own kitchen and try to figure out where the colors go, and suddenly you've got a lot of questions. Dan works through six of the most common ones.Question 1: Where Do the Different Colors Go? [19:17]Stop thinking about color first. Start by looking at your kitchen and finding places where it already naturally changes or transitions. Two-tone cabinets work best when the color shift happens somewhere the eye expects a shift anyway.An island is the most obvious example. It already sits apart from the perimeter cabinets and reads as its own piece, so a different color there makes sense to people right away. But there are other natural breaks to look for too, like a pantry wall, a built-in hutch, a coffee bar or desk area that feels separate from the main kitchen, or a clearly defined wall of cabinets that stands apart from the rest.The most common rule of thumb is lighter colors up high and darker or stronger colors lower or on a focal point. Lighter uppers make the kitchen feel more open. Darker lowers give it some weight and ground the space. That's why you see so many kitchens with cream or white perimeter cabinets and a navy or charcoal island.It's a rule of thumb, though, not a hard rule. Dark uppers can work if the kitchen has great natural light, taller ceilings, glass-front cabinet doors, or a mix of open shelving. Context matters.What you want to avoid is a scattered approach where the second color shows up in a random cabinet over here, another section across the room, maybe one upper somewhere else. Even if each individual spot makes some sense on its own, the overall effect reads as unplanned. Keep the color placement logical and intentional.Question 2: Do I Need an Island? [24:47]No. In kitchens without an island, the most straightforward move is light upper cabinets with darker lowers. But you can also pick a defined zone to give a different color to, a pantry wall, a built-in hutch, a coffee bar, a prep area that sits apart from the main run of cabinets. Designers talk about this as giving an area its own identity, treating it more like a piece of furniture than a cabinet that has to match everything else. A deep green pantry wall against off-white perimeter cabinets can look great, for example.One thing to watch in a no-island kitchen: keep it to two cabinet colors. Once you add a third on top of floors, countertops, backsplash, hardware, and appliances, the kitchen starts to feel like a lot very quickly.Question 3: Will Two Colors Make My Kitchen Feel Smaller or Busier? [26:17]It can, but it doesn't have to. In a larger kitchen with good natural light, you've got a lot of room to work with. You can go darker on the lowers, use a bold pantry color, push the contrast further. A smaller kitchen with limited light is a different situation. Two cabinet colors in a tight, low-light space can make the room feel chopped up, and one cabinet color might genuinely be the smarter call there.Dan admits this is the question that probably rules out his own kitchen for the project. That's okay. Not every space is the right fit for it, and it's a lot better to figure that out before you paint everything than after.Question 4: How Do I Choose Two Colors That Actually Work Together? [29:07]One color should do the calming. The other should do the talking. That's the principle. Pick one quiet color and one color with some character. If both are loud, the kitchen becomes visually exhausting to be in.The quiet color is almost always going to be something like a warm white, a cream, or a soft greige. The character color is where the personality comes in: a navy, a sage green, something deeper and moodier.Three Benjamin Moore pairings Dan mentions that work in just about any kitchen:White Dove and Hale Navy -- a warm white paired with a navy that basically acts like a neutral. It's not going to look dated in 10 or more years. About as safe and timeless as it gets.Swiss Coffee and October Mist -- a creamy white with a soft sage green. More muted than the navy option, better for someone who wants to step into color without it being too loud.White Dove and Aegean Teal -- Aegean Teal was Benjamin Moore's Color of the Year back around 2021 and is still going strong. A little more current-feeling than the other...

As parents, educators, and advocates for neurodivergent kids, it's crucial to recognize that traditional tests and assessments don't always paint the full picture of a child's abilities. In the newest episode of the podcast, we dive into why performance anxiety can create barriers—and how we can scaffold authentic, strengths-based ways for children to show what they truly know. Key Takeaways: Performance Anxiety ≠ Knowledge Gap If a child can demonstrate understanding in low-pressure settings but "freezes" or melts down when assessed, it's not a lack of knowledge—it's the context and perceived safety that need adjusting. Accommodations Are Powerful, Not Coddling Thoughtful adaptations—like adjusting the environment, pacing, or method of response—help reveal rather than hide skills. These accommodations build confidence and resilience for future challenges. Celebrate Wins & Prioritize Safety Progress isn't always linear. Celebrate small victories and focus more on helping children feel safe and seen. Creating a foundation of trust leads to more voluntary engagement and authentic learning. If you're educating or supporting a neurodivergent or twice-exceptional child, remember: The goal isn't to recreate school, but to foster an environment where kids can thrive in ways that make sense for them.

In this episode, I decided to do something a little different. Over the last two weeks, my team and I compiled a list of questions submitted by listeners and clients, some common, some obscure, and some that people simply don't know how to ask. I've got a legal pad in front of me with over 30 questions, ranging from "Am I saving too much?" to "Do I really need a trust?". We cover a lot of ground today, including the nuances of Roth conversions, the often-overlooked power of HSAs, and the "gas guzzler" analogy I use to explain tax-inefficient investing. I also address the fear of economic meltdowns for those suffering from "2008 PTSD" and why we've decided to keep this podcast 100% ad-free and sponsor-free to maintain our integrity. Whether you are five years out from retirement or already there, this Q&A session is designed to help you stress-test your own plan against the questions you should be asking. You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in... (05:26) Can You Save "Too Much" for Retirement? (09:06) Social Security and Spousal Benefits. (12:41) Maximizing HSAs for the Long Term. (15:27) Handling the Long-Term Care Question. (16:47) The Best Withdrawal Strategies. (20:17) The Truth About Roth Conversions. (24:40) The Retire Strong Bucket Strategy. (27:19) Protecting Against Economic Meltdowns. (32:16) Do I Need a Trust? The Balance Between Saving and Living One of the first questions I tackled was, "Am I saving too much?". It sounds counterintuitive, but I believe the answer can be yes. If saving for retirement is impacting your current lifestyle to the point where you are putting off vacations or postponing joy, you might be overdoing it. While retirement is a priority, you have to live today, too. On the flip side, we discussed the "when can I retire?" question. I argue that a better question is "when do I want to retire?" because for many, work provides identity and purpose that shouldn't be discarded just because you hit a financial number. The "Gas Guzzler" Portfolio: A Lesson in Tax Efficiency We also dove into investment strategies that minimize tax burdens. I use the analogy of a vehicle: you might have a hybrid getting 50 miles to the gallon, or a massive truck getting 11 miles to the gallon. When your account is small, you might not notice the "fuel inefficiency" of high taxes, but as your portfolio grows, those inefficiencies magnify. This ties directly into withdrawal strategies. I shared a story about someone who planned to drain their 401(k), then their brokerage, then their Roth, completely missing the boat on tax planning. You need a coordinated strategy to lower your lifetime tax bill, not just pay it as you go. Planning for the "What Ifs" Finally, we addressed the question, "Are we missing anything?". It's easy to plan for the monthly bills, but people often forget to factor in massive one-time expenses like weddings for their children or the fact that healthcare inflation historically outpaces standard inflation. We also touched on the fear of another 2008-style crash. If you are losing sleep over a potential economic meltdown, it's a sign to re-evaluate your risk exposure. You might be willing to trade some potential high returns for the peace of mind that comes with a more conservative approach.

In this week's episode of the podcast, we talk candidly about what school refusal really means for children and their families, and how homeschooling can offer a path toward healing, connection, and growth. Whether you're considering pulling your child out of school or you're already homeschooling but feeling stuck after a tough season, this conversation is for you. Here are three key takeaways for parents facing this challenge: School refusal is communication, not a character flaw. When a child can't attend school, it's their nervous system asking for safety, not a sign of failure. Healing comes before academics. Focus on rebuilding connection, trust, and emotional safety—academics can (and will) follow once these foundations are strong. Small, intentional changes add up. Shifting your daily routine, setting gentle non-negotiables, and celebrating even the smallest progress can move families from burnout to breakthrough. You are the best teacher and advocate for your child. If you need more support, resources, or simply community, know you're not alone on this path. Let's keep learning and growing—together.

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett Key Takeaways Saving too much is just as bad as spending too much, from a psychological perspective; being too far on either end of this spectrum means that money is controlling you Money amplifies who you already are: It will not cure anxiety or depression, but if you're already happy, it will enhance your life Saving money is the equivalent of purchasing independence A reasonable savings goal: enough that if you lost your job, your car broke down, or your roof needed replacing, you could handle it without losing sleepYour feeling of wealth is what you have minus what you want – and it is so easy to ignore the latter There are two ways to get wealthier: (1) Sacrifice more or (2) Want less There is an optimal level of intelligence for being successful as an investor: The beginner and the Wall Street veteran both invest in index funds; only the midwit tries to beat the market Be smart enough to understand the basics, but not so smart that they become boring to you The biggest risk is always unknowable: The worst economic story that happens in the next ten years will be something that no one is talking about today If no one could see how you are living, how would you choose to live?

When is seller financing worth it (as a buyer AND a seller)? Do you need an LLC to start investing in real estate, and will it help you buy more deals? Can you BRRRR (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat) your primary residence to realize some serious home equity gains? We're getting into these topics and more as we answer YOUR questions from the BiggerPockets Forums. First, a seller has been presented with an interesting seller finance offer. Should they take it? How do they vet the buyer before giving them the house in exchange for monthly payments? We'll explain when seller financing makes sense for sellers and how buyers can create compelling offers. Next, do one-bed, one-bath rentals do well, or are they too small for most areas? How can you use your primary residence to build wealth without renting to tenants? We're talking about the new BRRRR, or as Dave calls it, the LIFLOC (we'll describe it in detail!). Do you need an LLC to invest? Most new investors get this totally wrong. Finally, why do investors and agents think so poorly of wholesalers? Do we ever use them? And how do you tell a good one from a bad one? Looking to invest? Need answers? Ask your question on the BiggerPockets Forums! In This Episode We Cover: Whether or not you should accept a seller finance offer on your house vs. a loan or cash Why we LOVE small rental properties (one bed, one bath) even though most investors avoid them Using the “BRRRR” method to turn your primary residence into a wealth-building property LLCs for real estate, when you need one, and whether they'll help you buy more deals Working with real estate wholesalers and the legitimate reason why so many investors/agents avoid them And So Much More!
