If you want your audience to grow—and more importantly, move them to action—this episode is tailor-made for you. LEAD WITH CONNECTION, NOT CONTENT Your audience listens for companionship.

We talk about how getting laser-focused on your target audience changes everything.

Nicki lays out how to tailor your marketing message so it resonates with the exact audience you want to attract. We dig into practical strategies for clarifying your product brand, refining your offer, and using feedback and collaboration to fine-tune your pitch. COLLABORATION & CONSISTENCY WIN Nicki reveals her biggest lessons from corporate life at Hewlett Packard: the magic of collaboration and consistency. We explore actionable ways you can bring group feedback into developing your marketing message, A/B testing your ideas—without the massive budgets of big brands. We also talk about the increasing competition for attention in today's digital world. The average prospect needs 62 touchpoints with your brand before they're ready to take action. That's why consistency in your podcast message, branding, and calls to action is more important than ever. TURNING LISTENERS INTO CLIENTS So, how do you make your marketing message truly work? It starts by knowing your audience, articulating your unique value, and making every touchpoint count.

There's a difference between making money and building wealth. Between achieving success and sustaining it. David Meltzer learned this the hard way when he lost over $100 million and had to tell his mother he'd lost her house too. In this powerful conversation with Genea, David shares the three distinct phases of his entrepreneurial journey and the internal shifts that changed everything. This isn't your typical rags-to-riches story. It's about the hidden costs of building from scarcity, the emptiness that can come with external success, and the moment David discovered that his biggest problem wasn't his circumstances, it was his relationship with them. The insights David shares go straight to the heart of what it means to build something sustainable:

With strong project demand and recurring customer business, this segment remains the primary growth engine and a testament to BRAIN's unwavering commitment to innovation-driven strategy.The BioIndustrial segment, which includes proprietary product sales, showed a temporary decline due to destocking effects in the nutritional ingredients business. However, CFO Michael Schneiders highlights that this is expected to normalize in the second half of the fiscal year.Strategic Innovation: Akribion GenomicsOne of the strategic highlights of the presentation is the continued progress in BRAIN's genome editing platform, particularly within Akribion Genomics, a BRAIN subsidiary focused on CRISPR-based cell targeting technologies.

This strategic shift underscores the company's focus on unlocking value through deep-tech enzyme engineering, sustainable bioprocesses, and advanced genome editing, instilling confidence in our future direction.Conclusion: A Future-Driven Biotech EnablerThe presentation concludes with a confident outlook, reaffirming BRAIN Biotech's ambition to become a leading enabler in industrial biotechnology, particularly in green transformation, food innovation, and medical bioengineering.▶️ Other videos: Elevator Pitch: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-elevator-pitch/ Company Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-company-presentation/ Deep Dive Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-deep-dive/ Financial Results Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-financial-results/ ESG Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-esg/ T&C This publication is intended solely for informational purposes and does not constitute investment advice.

We talk to Michael Blessing Kamwana , founder of the Wealth Transfer Token (WTT) project, about his plans. See more about it here. Business Showcase : Wealth Transfer Token (WTT) What is your Elevator Pitch? "Turning Speculation into Empowerment" Introduction: A Movement Disguised as a Token In a world where meme coins dominate headlines and speculation fuels market frenzies, Wealth Transfer Token (WTT) stands out by doing something rare: making crypto meaningful. WTT is a blockchain-powered initiative with a bold mission - to bridge the global digital divide by delivering affordable internet access, financial education, and digital learning tools to underserved children around the world. While many tokens promise moonshots, WTT promises measurable change. Here, investors don't just chase gains - they change lives. The Vision We believe in a world where your ZIP code doesn't determine your future. Right now, millions of children with raw potential live disconnected from opportunity. They lack access to the internet, basic digital skills, and the kind of mentorship that transforms lives. Yet the tools to bridge that gap already exist. How are you different? WTT is the access. We're creating a token economy where the act of buying, staking, or holding a digital asset fuels: Internet infrastructure projects Financial literacy for kids Gamified learning platforms Mentorship networks Scholarships funded by token rewards The Problem: The Global Digital Divide * Over 2.7 billion people still lack internet access. * In Sub-Saharan Africa, only 1 in 5 children has access to a connected device. * Most underfunded schools don't have Wi-Fi, let alone modern edtech. * The result? Lost potential, broken dreams, and perpetuated poverty. Why will you do well? 1. Social Impact Investing Is Exploding Impact-focused investments hit $1.2 trillion in 2023. Investors are hungry for purpose. WTT gives them an on-chain way to see their money create measurable, lasting change. 2. Meme Coin Culture Meets Meaning Retail investors have shown they'll rally around hype - imagine when that hype is backed by humanity. WTT offers all the memetic energy of SHIB or PEPE, but with a mission that builds schools instead of just buzz. 3. Decentralization for Social Good WTT introduces *"DeSocFi"* - decentralized social finance. We connect blockchain tools with grassroots change. This isn't charity - it's community-powered economic transformation. And also, # 1. Blockchain for Education We leverage blockchain to create transparent, decentralized funding models that route resources directly to communities and schools in need. # 2. Crypto with a Conscience WTT behaves like a meme coin in terms of market appeal - but its utility is deeply humanitarian. As the token grows in value, its social footprint grows with it. # 3. Real-World Deliverables * Wi-Fi-enabled learning hubs in rural schools * Child-friendly digital wallets for savings and rewards * Interactive dApps with offline functionality * On-chain governance so token holders help decide project focus areas Where are you based? The CEO and Founder is based in Tralee, County Kerry in the Republic of Ireland where he's been living for the past 11 years. The other two team members originally from Zimbabwe are based in Johannesburg, South Africa . When was the Company Launched? The Token is yet to be launched, we are still in the presale phase so that we can be able to raise funds for marketing and liquidity for the token. What are your biggest wins to date? * Token development completed and audited * Strategic partnerships forming with African ISPs, NGOs, and edtech firms * Educational dApp prototype in development * Built core team across Ireland, South Africa. * Secured advisory input from blockchain, nonprofit, and finance experts. Who Are You Trying to Attract? *Crypto Speculators* - seeking a token that might moon, but won't disappear the next day *Impact Investors* - seeking ESG exposure with on-chain trans...

In this episode, we're talking about your elevator pitch. This episode is for you if someone says, “What do you do?” and you freeze or you ramble, or you say something that just doesn't quite land. It's for you if you've ever said something that felt like it either said too much or didn't say enough or just made people look at you a bit confused. And it's for you if you avoid the question altogether. Today I'm talking about what that question is really about and how to answer it in a way that feels good for you and makes sense to the person listening. We also cover a simple, short framework to help you answer that question clearly and naturally—without trying to squeeze your entire bio into one sentence.

Many interviewers report that they make up a big percentage of their mind about applicants during the first few minutes of an interview. This episode replay shares a number of very specific suggestions and tips to make yourself stand out during these first interactions, now that we're in the thick of Round 2 interview season. Our host Chandler shares his suggestions for something he calls a “personal MBA soundbite” – including how you can create this soundbite, how you can incorporate it into the beginning of your first question, and how you can use this language to provide a framework for your entire interview.  While each is different, the main goals of a personal MBA soundbite are to: summarize who you are in an interesting/memorable/dynamic/compelling way at the start of your interview, create a framework for the first part of your conversation so that the interviewer understands your life and work experiences in the appropriate context given your future goals, and   develop a short *elevator pitch* that can not only be useful as you prep for your interviews… but also in terms of other elements of your admissions journey–from speaking to current students, to alums, to admissions officers, etc.  This episode is perfect for anyone wanting to start off on the right foot for that all-important MBA admission interview.

Welcome back to the Building Better Developers podcast recap! This season, Building Better Businesses is all about practical ways to improve your entrepreneurial journey. In this episode, “Pitch Party: Pitching Your Business,” hosts Rob Broadhead and Michael Meloche unpack what it means to pitch your business — and how to do it effectively. Whether you're refining your elevator pitch or creating a full pitch event, this episode explains why authentic conversations are the heart of successful business growth. Why Pitching Your Business Is About Connection, Not Just Sales “It's not about what you do. It's about who you help.” — Rob Broadhead Rob starts by challenging the traditional idea of pitching your business as a sales tactic. Instead, consider it a way to start meaningful conversations with potential customers or partners. He introduces the idea of “pitch parties” — events where business owners talk about their ideas, challenges, and solutions in a relaxed, supportive setting. These can take many forms: Podcasts or blogs where you interview customers Casual local meetups focused on shared business problems Online communities or webinars with a Q&A structure The key to pitching your business successfully? Create an environment where the customer's voice leads the discussion. How Pitch Parties Help When Pitching Your Business “Don't pitch at people. Talk with them.” — Michael Meloche Michael shares how co-working spaces, local business groups, and chambers of commerce can be excellent venues for pitching your business. These settings give you access to other entrepreneurs and decision-makers in your area — the exact people you want to reach. He suggests hosting mini “TED Talks” where you: Identify the problem you solve Explain who it impacts Share how your business addresses it Use these talks to get live feedback from your audience and sharpen your message. Remember, listening is just as essential as speaking when pitching your business. ⚡️ Callout: Lead With Value First When pitching your business, offer value before making the ask. You might: Give away a free consultation or website review Share a downloadable checklist Offer access to an invite-only community or beta These acts of generosity build trust and credibility — the foundation of any successful pitch. Master the Art of Reading the Room “People buy from those they know, trust, and like.” — Rob Broadhead A central theme in this episode is social awareness. Pitching your business in the wrong setting — like barging into a networking event with a hard sell — can do more harm than good. Rob and Michael emphasize the importance of: Building rapport first Becoming part of a community Listening before presenting your solution Online spaces are no different. Become a helpful and trusted voice before promoting your product in forums or on social media. Challenge: Design Your Pitching Event This week's challenge is to brainstorm your pitch party. Whether it's a roundtable, online panel, or a casual coffee chat, think about how you can create a space where business owners discuss real problems — and where you can naturally pitch your business as a solution. Consider: Who your ideal audience is What problems they're facing How you can bring them together for a low-pressure conversation Even if your first event is small or informal, it's a great way to practice pitching your business and refining your messaging. Final Thoughts on Pitching Your Business Pitching your business isn't just about persuasion but also about building relationships. Rob and Michael remind us that the most potent pitch happens when you're genuinely interested in solving someone's problem, not just selling a product. Whether meeting people at a local mixer or hosting your business-building event, remember to listen first and pitch second. The feedback you receive could be the insight that unlocks your next level of growth.

You can rehearse your message, polish your pitch, and script every word—but if you're not fully present in the moment, truly listening, and tuned in to the needs and emotions of your audience, you'll miss the connection that really drives trust and action. Presence is what transforms information into influence.”

How to captivate an audience and make your message stick.Pitches and presentations don't fall flat because speakers aren't prepared. For Guy Kawasaki, it's because speakers miss the point. “If all you're trying to do is inform, you're not going to pull it off. You have to entertain your audience.”A renowned author, speaker, and entrepreneur, Kawasaki knows that the point of great storytelling isn't about information, it's about emotion. “Too many speakers think, ‘I need to inform my audience.
