Mother invested FEMA checks into real estate, teaching him property management and renovation skills early. Believes knowledge is power and emphasizes planning and consistency. Notable Quotes On embracing discomfort:“I learned to embrace the uncomfort and make it one of my biggest strengths.” On social media:“You have to make your business look the same way online as in person.” On financial literacy:“Real estate is always going to be good debt. Bad debt is the Macy’s card.” On collaboration:“Pooling resources shows how far we can go and how fast we can go—but together.” On planning:“If you don’t plan, you plan to fail.

What separates short-term Amazon sales from long-term brand growth? Learn the repeat purchase strategy behind a $20M brand and how sellers can use it. In this episode of the AM/PM Podcast, host Carrie Miller welcomes Jason McLellan of Prime Team Agency to break down the customer retention strategy behind VitaCup's growth into a $20 million Amazon and omnichannel brand. Jason shares how Amazon started as VitaCup's smallest sales channel at around $2 million, then became a major driver of the business by using a different way of thinking: focusing less on cheap customer acquisition and more on which products created loyal, repeat buyers.   Jason explains how the VitaCup team used cohort data and product repeat rates to understand which ASINs were truly worth investing in. Some products looked like winners because they had low CPCs, strong conversions, and high demand, but the data showed that customers were not coming back. Meanwhile, products like Genius Coffee were more expensive to advertise, but they attracted customers who were more likely to repurchase, move into Subscribe & Save, and increase lifetime value.   Carrie and Jason also discuss how sellers can apply this thinking beyond consumables. Whether you sell supplements, food and beverage, lifestyle products, starter kits, or products with replenishable components, the key is understanding how one purchase can lead to the next. Jason shares practical strategies around Subscribe & Save coupons, AMC audiences, DSP retargeting, cross-selling, virtual bundles, multi-packs, listing optimization, and using tools like Helium 10 to make smarter decisions.   The biggest takeaway from this episode is that real Amazon growth is not just about chasing more sales; it is about building a business that customers keep coming back to. When sellers understand their repeat purchase data, they can stop wasting ad dollars on short-term wins and start building a brand with predictable revenue, stronger customer relationships, and long-term profitability. The brands that win are not always the ones that acquire the cheapest customer, but the ones that acquire the right customer and give them a reason to stay.   In episode 535 of the AM/PM Podcast, Carrie and Jason discuss: 00:00 - Introduction 01:52 - Jason McLellan's VitaCup Growth Story 03:05 - Using Cohorts And Product Repeat Rates 04:39 - Applying LTV Strategy Beyond Consumables 06:24 - The Tale Of Three ASINs 09:49 - Why Low CPC Products Can Be Misleading 11:03 - Shifting Ad Spend Toward Repeat Purchases 12:32 - Reaching 30% Subscribe & Save Volume 15:06 - Using Math As Your Amazon North Star 18:20 - Reading Cohort Retention Data 20:35 - Turning Acquisition Into Subscribe & Save 23:18 - Cross-Selling To Existing Customers 24:53 - Virtual Bundles And Multi-Pack Strategy 27:19 - How Helium 10 Helped VitaCup 30:34 - Listing Optimization And Testing 34:27 - Avoiding Multi-Pack Cannibalization

Recorded June 12, 2026 In this Fourth of July–flavored episode of On Topic, the panel celebrates America's birthday the only way they know how: by declaring independence from the worst habits in higher ed AV. This month's grievances include single-vendor ecosystem lock-in, consultant-led designs that ignore campus standards, isolated "AV network islands," overcomplicated touch panels, mystery DSP files, proprietary cables, terrible display home screens, and every "professional" product that somehow requires a cloud account just to configure the thing.  Along the way, the panel debates automation versus user control, whether classrooms really need touch panels at all, and why interoperability always seems to mean "mostly works, as long as you bought everything from us." It's patriotic, petty, and painfully familiar: a fireworks show of AV complaints aimed directly at the systems, specs, and design habits we should have dumped into the harbor years ago.   Alternate show titles: We might be making headway The future of buildings No new islands!

Recorded June 19, 2026 After a full week at InfoComm 2026, the AV SuperFriends stagger onto the AVIXA TV set for one final wrap show: tired feet, fried brains, louder-than-necessary opinions, and just enough caffeine to mistake exhaustion for insight. This episode is the team's end-of-show download after days of booth demos, hallway meetings, badge scans, lukewarm coffee, live shows, sketchy product pitches, and enough walking to qualify as either professional development or a cry for help. The crew talks through what actually stood out on the show floor, including the quiet rise of REST APIs, AV gear that's finally opening up to outside control, middleware boxes that make existing systems smarter, and AI that might be useful when it isn't just being sprinkled on brochures like tradeshow glitter. They also pick their favorite finds from the week, including Inogeni's IP2USB tools, Ross Vertex's "wait, it does what?" visualization platform, Nureva's HDX audio approach, larger-chip PTZ cameras, decentralized DSP, and Epson's beautifully boring direct-view LED display that does the one thing AV people keep begging for: display the image without trying to become a smart TV. It's the InfoComm wrap show: part trend report, part group therapy, part warning label for anyone who thinks "quick booth visit" means anything under 45 minutes.   News article: https://www.avinteractive.com/news/fire-breaks-out-on-ba-flight-packed-with-infocomm-visitors-16-06-2026/   Alternate show titles: Acoustic chicken Rise of REST Just use these and put it in there This is my excited face Costco Down I might actually trust NDI now Down to one tchotchke and life is good There's AI built in!

George has been in digital advertising since 2009, working on a wide range of platforms including Amazon, Google, Bing, LinkedIn and Facebook. Paid advertising. Using these platforms, he has worked with hundreds of advertisers across the world in numerous industries and sectors to maximize their ROAS. His agency, Clear Ads, now focuses purely on Amazon PPC and DSP advertising, helping deliver the best results for his clients. So with that introduction, welcome to the show, George.George 00:00:38  Thank you so much for having me, Josh. It's a pleasure.Josh 00:00:40  What are some of the what's a checklist that you should kind of go through and walk through to vet an agency that you're looking to have, do DSP for you?George 00:00:48  The first thing is don't go with Amazon. Right. But I'm sure they won't mind me saying this. Right. But actually they will. But I'm going to say anyway, Amazon's core strategy is to get you to spend as much money as possible. That's their KPI because that's how they get promoted.George 00:01:02  Right. So the way they treat your account is they go, hey, look at all these amazing impressions that you've got. Isn't that great? And as I said, you're like, hold on one step. Precious isn't really the key thing for us. Like we're trying to get. We're trying to we're trying to grow our business. Not not just increase our reach. So that's the big thing that they go with, especially with the slight uncertainty with attribution at the moment. It could look to to their favor. Right. That's the first thing. Now second, when you do go to an agency, the first step you should take is go onto Amazon's accredited partners page. Right. And check out DSP providers. So Amazon DSP providers just put stuff on Google. Go onto Amazon's page and there's a list of DSP providers. Right. So what you tend to find if you find any company. Right. If they're if they're if they are an official partner with Amazon, they will tend to have a partner badge somewhere which links straight to that page which shows you, hey, their official partner.George 00:01:58  Now, if they're not an official partner, they might be piggybacking off someone else's suit. Right. You don't want to get into that. Because if they're piggybacking off someone else's seat. Right. Let's just say there's some internal issues and they get kicked out of that seat. They no longer have access to your account. Who do you contact? Yeah. Who do? Who do you reach? You don't know. Right. So you want to make sure you've got someone who's got their own first thing. The second thing is, I'm sure every seller that's listening to this, they're savvy. They have a pool. An audience of other savvy sellers. Speak to them, find out who are they using that's doing DSP. That's working really well. Right. Get their first, first, first glance and say, okay, what's your experience been like? and ensure that they're happy with whoever it is. So they're the steps that I would recommend taking when trying to find a DSP agent. I would even go as far as ask them questions about the business.George 00:02:49  What's the purpose of the business? What are you looking to do? How big is it? How long has it been going? Is it? Is it a brand new business that's business. Me starting up for a bit and might not be there tomorrow. Yeah. Is it one that's been there for a while? Is it, you know, you want to you just want to really find out how many DSP, agents you have. How many of them are certified? how many have taken the exams? I would just do your due diligence. Ask those questions before it's too late, and then before you're stuck with someone.Josh 00:03:16  Yeah, I think that is foundation number one for sure. So I hope our listeners follow those best practices because it's true. You make this decision, and it's not like you could just change course after six months or a year. otherwise you're just starting from ground zero all over again. All right. Now let's jump into these strategies. Let's say you have found the right agency to work with.Josh 00:03:41  What's the first strategy you should be implementing with DSP?George 00:03:45  Yeah.

Andy Schonfeld, CRO of Tatari, joins Ari Paparo from Cannes Lions to discuss Tatari's bold message to the DSP ecosystem, why programmatic TV only captures a fraction of the market, the evolution of convergent TV buying, and how direct access to premium inventory is reshaping the future of television advertising. They also explore Tatari's Upstream platform, the role of data and AI in media planning, recent industry shakeups involving Publicis, The Trade Desk, Fox, and Roku, and why transparency and supply paths are becoming table stakes in CTV. Takeaways Tatari's Cannes campaign highlights the limitations of relying exclusively on programmatic TV buying. Major tentpole events like the Super Bowl, Olympics, and World Cup are still primarily bought through direct relationships. Convergent TV requires access to both linear and streaming inventory to maximize reach and outcomes. Data remains a key differentiator, but inventory access is equally important in a supply-constrained TV market. Tatari leverages more than a decade of performance data to optimize campaigns based on outcomes. Tatari's Upstream platform enables direct publisher integrations, reducing intermediaries and improving transparency across CTV buying. Increased scrutiny around fees and transparency is prompting agencies and brands to reevaluate their supply chains. The Fox-Roku partnership signals a shift toward deeper integration between content owners and distribution platforms. AI is accelerating media planning and workflow automation, but its effectiveness depends on the quality of underlying data.

Drink responsibly, don't drink and drive A rum and rye blend that drinks like a serious rye, a 42-year cask-strength Armagnac that somehow stays silky, and a bourbon brand resurrected because a trademark clock was ticking. We sit down with Turner Wathan of Rolling Fork Spirits to taste, laugh, and get unusually honest about how bottles actually get made, found, and sold when they don't fit tidy categories.  We dig into Fortuitous Union and why the “distilled spirit specialty” label can hide some of the best liquid on the shelf: foursquare rum, MGP rye, careful proofing, and a Weller barrel finish that pulls vanilla into the blend without muting spice. Turner shares how bartenders react, why tastings are the real marketing engine, and what he looks for when he's building something meant to be opened with friends.  Then we go deep on Armagnac and Calvados through the Wayward Cask lens: container-sized buys, Gascony farmers, traveling stills, French oak that isn't charred, and the kind of terroir detail that makes brandy feel like a “final boss” spirit. We also talk Bourbon Deluxe, the Wathen family whiskey history, why Green River Distillery became the right partner, and what the current whiskey market slowdown means if you care about value, age statements, and authenticity.  If you like independent bottlers, barrel finishing, Kentucky bourbon history, rum in bourbon barrels, and rare French brandy, this one is packed.

Dr. Ahmed is a cardiologist and entrepreneur.We began our 30-minute conversation discussing his day-to-day work as a interventional and structural cardiologist, which required five years of fellowship training after completing his internal medicine residency. He was recently recruited to develop the structural cardiology program in Columbus, Georgia. The cardiac procedures that Dr. Bilal has been trained to do can be life-saving!In 2024, in his free time, Dr. Ahmed co-founded Lylah Health with his sister after recognizing a connection between cardiac health and the microbiome. He observed that a supplement containing prebiotics, probiotics, and postbiotics could lower LDL cholesterol by more than 20%—a result short of a high-intensity statin but comparable to some existing cholesterol-lowering medications. As a practicing cardiologist, he saw the potential health benefits for millions of people.Dr. Ahmed is also writing a book about his journey in medicine, his multigenerational family history, and the life lessons he hopes to share with his young daughter. To learn more, please go to: www.Lylahhealth.com#microbiome #hearthealth #cardiology #cardiologist @lylahhealth @bilalahmedPlease click "Fanmail" and share your feedback!If you enjoy an episode, please share with friends and colleagues.

Prime Day competition is rising. Learn how smarter Amazon ads, AMC audiences, DSP, video, and AI creative can help sellers capture more traffic and conversions before, during, and after it. Prime Day is no longer just about turning up your Amazon PPC budget and hoping the extra traffic converts. In this episode of the AM/PM Podcast, Shivali Patel sits down with Destaney Wishon of BTR Media to break down what sellers should expect from Prime Day, how advertising behavior has changed, and why brands need a more intentional strategy around bids, budgets, audiences, and creative.   Destaney explains why campaign structure is one of the biggest levers sellers can control before a major shopping event. Instead of relying on one broad campaign, she recommends segmenting campaigns by goal, including awareness, ranking, efficiency, brand defense, auto discovery, and conquesting. This gives sellers the flexibility to shift budget based on what they actually want to accomplish, whether that is improving BSR, protecting profitability, capturing existing demand, or creating more awareness before shoppers are ready to buy.   The episode also dives into how AMC and DSP are changing the way Amazon sellers approach advertising. Destaney shares why shoppers often click or add to cart days before purchasing, which means brands may be cutting off future sales if they lower bids too quickly. She also explains how AMC audiences can help sellers target higher-intent shoppers, such as cart abandoners or people more likely to buy premium products, while DSP and streaming TV can help create demand before shoppers even search on Amazon.   To close the conversation, Destaney breaks down practical Prime Day tactics for new brands, low-priced products, lead-in and lead-out periods, dayparting, automatic campaigns, and creative assets. Her biggest reminder is that there is no one-size-fits-all Prime Day strategy. The brands that win are the ones that understand their goals, know their margins, use data wisely, and build an ad strategy that fits their business instead of copying someone else's playbook.

In this episode, we kick things off with a grim warning from Wall Street about one of the industry's more specialized logistics players. S&P Global Ratings has slashed Odyssey Logistics' debt rating to CCC+ and warned of a possible default in 2027. The third-party logistics provider faces $125 million in revolving credit maturing in July 2027 and a massive $490 million term loan due that October, with S&P projecting the company will exhaust all available liquidity as utilization climbs to approximately $42 million by mid-2027. Next, we discuss a major legal victory for the e-commerce giant in a case that could have fundamentally reshaped its delivery network. A National Labor Relations Board judge has approved a settlement ending the process that could have declared Amazon a joint employer with its Direct Service Providers. The original complaint centered on Amazon's relationship with Battle Tested Strategies, a DSP operating out of the DAX8 facility in Palmdale, California, believed to be the only DSP where workers voted for Teamsters representation. Under the settlement, which includes a nonadmission clause specifically disclaiming Amazon's joint employer status, workers at BTS are entitled to two weeks' pay. Finally, we explore increasingly positive signals from a major bellwether for the less-than-truckload sector as Old Dominion Freight Line reported a 12.3% year-over-year revenue increase per day during May, significantly outpacing its previously reported 7.6% revenue increase in April. May tonnage declined just 3.8% year-over-year, a notable improvement from April's 6.1% decline, while yield increased approximately 16% during the month. The improving metrics are being bolstered by a broader industrial recovery, with the Purchasing Managers' Index registering a 54 reading for May, the highest in four years.

In this special live episode from the HETMA Roadshow in Mechelen, Belgium, Joe Way wraps up HETMA's first European Roadshow with conversations from the show floor at Thomas More University of Applied Sciences. The episode captures the energy, lessons, and excitement of a milestone event that brought higher education AV professionals, university leaders, and manufacturer partners together to build community, share challenges, and explore the future of learning spaces in Europe.Joe opens the episode by reflecting on the success of the two-day Roadshow and the clear desire across the European higher ed AV community for more opportunities like this. While HETMA has built a proven Roadshow model in North America, this event showed that the same need for connection, collaboration, and shared problem-solving exists across Europe, even as the format must be adapted to fit regional culture, expectations, and community dynamics.The first conversation features Darta from Catchbox, who shares how Catchbox has grown beyond its iconic throwable microphone into a broader microphone and audio system for education spaces. She discusses the value of simple, teacher-friendly technology, including the Catchbox Cube, Clip microphone, handheld microphone, receiver, and built-in DSP capabilities. The conversation highlights how reducing complexity for instructors also reduces support tickets for AV teams.Joe then sits down with Tom from Thomas More University of Applied Sciences, one of the key leaders behind hosting the Roadshow. Tom reflects on the intentional design of the university's newest building, explaining that technology should enhance learning rather than force teachers to adapt to technology. The discussion centers on purposeful design, student comfort, long-term thinking, and the impressive retractable LED wall that became one of the standout features of the campus tour.Next, Kenny from Thomas More joins the conversation to talk about the behind-the-scenes work required to make the event successful. He shares how the university's AV team supports multiple campuses while maintaining a shared vision and strong internal trust. Kenny emphasizes that events like the Roadshow create the rare opportunity for peers to step away from their daily work, compare challenges, and learn directly from one another.Joe also speaks with Mia, Director of Infrastructure and Facilities at Thomas More, following her keynote on the university's approach to educational infrastructure. She explains the guiding principles behind their learning spaces, including community, ease of learning, desire to learn, sustainability, and innovation. Her perspective reinforces one of the strongest themes of the episode: the best learning spaces begin with the student and teacher experience, not the technology.The episode continues with conversations from several manufacturer partners, including Sennheiser, Crestron, Biamp, and Extron. Across these conversations, recurring themes emerge around ease of use, stability, security, inclusiveness, audio quality, hybrid learning, room consistency, USB-C integration, standardization, and the importance of long-term manufacturer support. Each partner reflects on the value of being able to meet directly with higher education professionals in a community-centered environment rather than a traditional sales-first setting.A major theme throughout the episode is that higher education institutions across regions face many of the same challenges. Whether in North America or Europe, AV teams are working to create frictionless rooms, support hybrid and active learning, stretch technology investments over longer lifecycles, reduce support complexity, and make spaces more inclusive and sustainable.

In this episode of the Programmatic Digest, Hélène Parker and Assetou Kone dive into the evolving role of AI in programmatic advertising and campaign optimization. The conversation explores how media buyers and traders can use tools like ChatGPT and Claude to streamline workflows, analyze campaign data more efficiently, and uncover deeper optimization insights. Hélène opens the session by reframing optimization as more than simple "bid up, bid down" tactics. Instead, she explains how successful optimization requires hypothesis testing, strategic thinking, and understanding how DSP algorithms redistribute spend based on performance signals. Using practical examples, she demonstrates how removing underperforming inventory can improve overall campaign efficiency by reallocating budget toward higher-performing placements. Assetou walks through the fundamentals traders need before introducing AI into their workflows, emphasizing the importance of understanding campaign objectives across awareness, consideration, conversion, and loyalty stages. She explains how campaign goals directly influence which metrics traders should prioritize and optimize toward. The heart of the workshop focuses on prompt engineering and practical AI usage. Assetou demonstrates how traders can use AI to analyze site lists, identify inefficient domains, generate allow/block lists, surface top-performing inventory, and extract geo-level insights tied to real-world audience behavior. She also highlights how combining AI-generated insights with industry knowledge creates stronger strategic recommendations for clients. Throughout the discussion, Hélène and Assetou address common fears around AI and job security, explaining why traders who learn how to leverage AI tools will become more valuable — not less. They close by discussing the future of agentic AI within DSPs and how automation can help traders spend less time buried in spreadsheets and more time focusing on strategy and insight generation.

In this episode of DSP Chat, host Asheley Blaise delves into the power of appreciative inquiry in direct support work. When we shift from traditional 'fix-it' methods to approaches that emphasize listening, co-creation, and honoring the voices of individuals being supported we support the whole person. Emphasizing the importance of asking better questions, this episode invites listeners to reconsider the expert is in the DSP and person receiving services relationship, proposing partnership and co-creation over fixing and power over.Key Takeaways:Transformative Listening: Shift focus from behavior fixing to listening and acknowledging what is already working well for individuals.Co-Creation in Planning: True person-centered planning involves creating plans with individuals, prioritizing their voices and aspirations.Role Reflection: DSPs should reflect on arriving in their roles not as experts, but as partners sharing power with those they support.Problem-Solving vs. Potential-Dwelling: Focusing on potential rather than just challenges can lead to profound impacts on individuals' lives.Notable Quotes:"Co-creation begins when people's stories shape the agenda." - Baturu Mboge"Are you arriving as the expert or as the partner?" – Asheley Blaise"Appreciative inquiry is about refusing to let challenges become the whole story." – Asheley BlaiseConcluding this episode, Asheley Blaise invites listeners to reflect on their roles in direct support, urging them to shift from fixing behaviors to building partnerships based on listening and co-creating meaningful support plans.

The hosts explore how other companies are engaging in Amazon's Delivery Service Provider or DSP model to skirt liability for the actions of workers in the gig economy. Guest Johnny Simon tells host Tim Cronin Amazon is facing an existential question because these types of cases require attorneys to uncover unflattering evidence, including information about their profits and how they treat drivers. Cronin says the trend is spreading to the healthcare industry, especially in rural hospitals.

The Trade Desk (NASDAQ:TTD) is down 67% over the last 12 months — one of the biggest falls from grace for a stock that was once a Wall Street darling. Simon Erickson digs deep into Q1 2025 earnings, the slowing revenue growth (from 25% to just 12% year-over-year), and the second quarter guidance of only 8% top-line growth. Is this a temporary macro headwind — or is something more structural breaking down inside the programmatic advertising industry?Simon breaks down the key competitive threat: Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) has entered The Trade Desk's backyard with its own demand-side platform, undercutting TTD's ~20% take rate with pricing closer to 10-12%. Plus, major customers like Walmart (NYSE:WMT) and Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX) are now diversifying away from exclusive Trade Desk relationships. But here's the bull case — The Trade Desk is still the only fully independent, open-internet DSP in a $1 trillion global advertising market, and CEO Jeff Green is launching agentic AI campaigns and Open Path to dramatically reduce the inefficiency that costs advertisers 45 cents of every ad dollar today.Simon's discounted cash flow analysis suggests TTD shares — currently trading around $21-22 — could be worth $40 or more by end of 2027 if ad budgets recover and growth resumes to 15-17% by end of decade. Plus, a preview of Wednesday's show: Rocket Lab (NASDAQ:RKLB), which 7Investing recommended at $4 and has since climbed to $100 a share.

In this episode of the Programmatic Digest, Manuela Cortes sits down with Eric Tilbury, Head of Programmatic and Solutions Engineering at Anuvo, to discuss the evolution of ad tech and the industry's shift away from traditional identity-based targeting. With over 14 years in the space, Eric shares insights from his unique background working on both the supply side (monetization) and the buy side, explaining how balancing the needs of both publishers and advertisers has shaped his perspective on the ecosystem. The conversation highlights a major flaw in current programmatic practices: the over-reliance on fragmented user IDs, which Eric argues leads to low match rates and provides a massive "merry-go-round" for ad fraud. The heart of the discussion focuses on Anuvo's proprietary solution, the Intent Key. Eric explains why they chose to move away from tracking IDs to instead focus on modeling content and intent in real-time. By using language-based signals and custom intent models, advertisers can reach relevant audiences without the latency or privacy concerns associated with the "cookieless boogeyman". Manuela and Eric also dive into the complexities of CTV and in-app advertising. Eric shares why targeting based on geo-relevance (zip codes) and content genres is often more accurate than using unstable IPs or IDs, which he notes are only present in about 30% of CTV inventory. He stresses the importance of Supply Path Optimization (SPO) to ensure buyers are reaching real human audiences in high-impact environments rather than wasting budget on "refrigerator ads". They close the conversation with a look toward an "agentic future," where AI agents facilitate deeper strategic decisions, and Eric underscores the necessity for buyers to actively optimize their data points to ensure programmatic remains an effective, high-value channel.  

The Courts are starting to recognize Amazon and other massive companies should be held liable for the actions of their agents or employees while they're on the clock, despite their attempts at creating corporate structures to avoid liability in the gig economy. Simon Law Attorney Johnny Simon discusses the strategies he's used to hold Amazon and other companies accountable with host Tim Cronin, who also has had success in these types of cases. The hosts break down how Amazon's Delivery Service Provider or DSP model is marketed as independent small businesses but operates under extensive control from Amazon including training on package handling, uniforms, real-time driver monitoring. Despite that control, Amazon claims DSP drivers are not its employees, shifting liability onto smaller contractors that typically carry limited insurance.
