Podcasts about Engine

Episode Overview In Part 4 of the Power Hour Series, John Kitchens and Joel Perso deep-dive into one of the most pivotal milestones of the entire framework—the Profit Engine. If Milestone 1 gave you clarity, Milestone 2 charted your course, and Milestone 3 upgraded your thinking… this is where you finally start architecting the business machine that will free you from the transaction treadmill. John and Joel break down how to build a team-driven, financially sound, scalable real estate business that no longer depends on your personal production. They unpack the four foundational pillars of the Profit Engine—Economic Model, Value Promise, Lead Magnets, and Delivery Model—and show you how each piece fits into the bigger Agent to CEO flywheel. This episode is pure gold for agents, team leaders, and entrepreneurs who want predictable growth, stronger margins, and a business model that actually produces freedom—not burnout. Key Topics Covered 1. The Profit Engine Explained Why this milestone determines whether you grow into a true CEO—or stay stuck as an average frustrated agent (AFA). Why stepping out of production requires a profitable and predictable model—not hope, not hustle. How to think like an architect designing a machine, not a salesperson chasing the next deal. 2. The Economic Model: "Math Must Math" How to design a business that remains profitable as you remove yourself from production. The truth about margins—and why most teams fail because they don't understand cost of sales. Why top-line revenue is vanity, but profit is sanity. Target margins, compensation philosophy, and how to avoid the trap of 75/25 agent splits. Why most agents never escape production because their economic model makes it mathematically impossible. Books mentioned: Simple Numbers, Straight Talk, Big Profits (Greg Crabtree) Profit First (Mike Michalowicz) Psychology of Money (Morgan Housel) 3. The Promise: Your Value Proposition to the Market "Businesses compete on promise… and survive on the promises they keep." How to define the ONE major pain your ideal client has—and the solution only you provide. Why your value proposition must work for two audiences: Buyers & Sellers Agents How to craft your "Only We…" statement that separates you from every other agent with a business card. 4. The Magnet: Creating Consistent Lead Flow Why picking ONE channel first prevents "half-built bridges." How to build hooks, stories, and offers that attract your ideal client. Why missing CTAs are the #1 reason agents' marketing fails. The metrics you MUST track to know if marketing works (and what to ignore). 5. The Delivery Model: The Promise Kept How to map the 5–7 step client journey that delivers a world-class experience. The secret to scaling: roles, handoffs, and accountability. Why every stage needs a commitment and a deliverable. How your service model drives advocacy, referrals, and repeat business. 6. The Agent to CEO Flywheel Why every milestone fuels the next—and why momentum is everything. Why losing momentum is 10x harder to rebuild than it is to maintain. The leadership principles needed to avoid complacency as you scale. Books mentioned: The Need to Lead by Dave Berke.

The Profit Engine is the blueprint for predictable, scalable, team-driven revenue—so you can step out of production without your business falling apart. As John says: "Words talk. Numbers scream.

⬥EPISODE NOTES⬥Understanding the Startup Engine Behind CybersecurityThis episode brings Sean Martin together with Ross Haleliuk, author, investor, product leader, and creator of Venture Insecurity, for a candid look at the forces shaping cybersecurity startups today. Ross shares how his decade of product leadership and long involvement in the security community give him a unique perspective on what drives founders, what creates market gaps, and why new companies keep entering a space already full of tools.Why Security Produces So Many ProductsRoss explains that the large number of security tools is not evidence of an industry losing control. Instead, it reflects a technology ecosystem where entrepreneurship has become easier and where attackers, not practitioners, define what defenders need. Because threats shift constantly, security leaders must always look for clues on what could fail next. That constant uncertainty fuels innovation.What Motivates FoundersDespite outside assumptions, Ross observes that most founders are motivated by the problems they have lived themselves. Some come from enterprise teams. Others come from military backgrounds. Many find traction with early open source work. Few come into cybersecurity to chase quick wins, and most do not survive long enough to chase profits even if they wanted to.Security as Business EnablementSean and Ross discuss the role of security as a business driver. In regulated sectors, companies invest because they must. In technology companies, strong security is a sales enabler that gives customers confidence to use their products. Outside of tech, the priority is more about resilience and operational continuity.How Buyers Should Think About StartupsRoss outlines the tradeoffs. Startups deliver speed, responsiveness, fresh architecture, and modern user experience. Large vendors provide stability, predictability, and broad coverage. Neither is perfect. Security leaders should decide based on the importance of the capability, the level of influence they want, and the outcomes they need.This conversation highlights the practical realities behind the security products organizations choose and the people who build them. Listeners will hear both the optimism and the honesty that define today's cybersecurity innovation economy.⬥GUEST⬥Ross Haleliuk, Security product leader, author, advisor, board member and investor | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rosshaleliuk/⬥HOST⬥Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/imsmartin/ | Website: https://www.seanmartin.com⬥RESOURCES⬥Inspiring Blog: https://ventureinsecurity.net/p/not-every-security-leader-works-at⬥ADDITIONAL INFORMATION⬥✨ More Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast:

Running a power market isn't just about generating electricity—it's about making sure every kilowatt is accounted for. Someone has to calculate who owes what, make sure the rules are fair, and keep the system balanced in real time. Think of it as being an accountant, a banker, and a referee—all rolled into one. In the UK, that vital but largely invisible role is handled by Elexon.Elexon is the Balancing and Settlement Code Company (BSCCo) for Great Britain. They are the neutral heartbeat of the electricity market, making sure the lights stay on and energy imbalances are accurately billed. They provide the transparency, fairness, and precision that keeps the whole system running—and prevent anyone from gaming the market. Formerly part of National Grid, Elexon has always been independent and is owned by the 13 largest market participants.In this episode, Laurent and Gerard sit down with Peter Stanley, CEO of Elexon, to dive deep into the nuts and bolts of the balancing market. They break down why system costs have quintupled in recent years, hitting £8 billion a year, how settlement processes are being modernized, and the surprising ways AI is starting to shape the market.Elexon isn't just about numbers—it's the backbone of the UK's Clean Power by 2030 plan (CP30). By keeping the system balanced and efficient, Elexon is helping drive the near-total elimination of fossil fuels from the power grid, making a cleaner, greener future possible.Get ready for a technical—but fascinating—ride behind the scenes of the UK electricity market.

Why do some recruiters struggle for traction while others build demand engines that bring clients to them? My guest, Tom Froggatt, made that shift after three days of calling 600 people with no results. Tom is the founder of Singular, a biotech search firm and one of Europe's leading specialists. Six months after launching the business, he hit a breaking point that changed everything. Instead of doubling down on cold calls, Tom built a system that creates predictable client demand. Today, a £4,000 campaign can generate £55,000 in revenue, and his business runs on consistent inbound opportunities. In this conversation, Tom explains how he replaced cold outreach with a system, how he uses content and insight reports to convert strangers into six figure clients, and why the volume required for effective marketing is far higher than most recruiters expect. In this episode, you'll discover Why Tom realised he did not have a BD problem but a systems problem How three days of rejection created a turning point How podcasting connected him with senior biotech leaders Why each client is worth £55,000 in 12 months How his insight report converts inbound retained work Why most recruiters underestimate the required volume How thinking like a tech founder beats thinking like a traditional recruiter Episode Highlights [6:44] Starting Singular in a windowless office and the six-month reality check [19:16] Three days, 600 calls, zero results. The moment everything changed [21:22] Launching "Careers in Discovery" and building relationships with senior biotech leaders [22:05] The podcast guest who walked Tom straight to HR and introduced him on the spot [36:44] The mindset shift from "winning clients" to building revenue-generating systems [42:16] Why each client is worth £55,000 in 12 months and what that means for ad spend [49:30] The exact funnel. Free insight reports that convert strangers into six-figure partnerships [54:14] Why Tom gives away £2,500 worth of market data for free and why it works [58:47] How to identify real client pain points without guessing [1:03:09] Why reverse engineering problems to fit your service always fails [1:10:27] The volume truth. Why 200 outreach attempts are not nearly enough If you want to build predictable client demand without relying on cold outreach, this episode will show you how. Guest Bio Tom Froggatt is the founder of Singular, a biotech search and talent company specialising in early drug discovery roles across Europe. Before Singular, Tom spent ten years at S3, where he opened their New York office at age 25. He is also the host of the Careers in Discovery podcast with more than 300 episodes.

For the final episode in this special Future of Travel series, I sat down with someone who has quietly shaped more of the vacation rental industry than almost anyone working in it today: Tim Rosolio, VP of Vacation Rental Partner Success at Expedia Group. If you've ever wondered how VRBO evolved from a subscription classifieds site to a global e-commerce engine—or what the next decade of supply, demand, and distribution will actually look like—this is the conversation insiders will be talking about. Tim has spent the better part of a decade helping lead VRBO through some of the most dramatic shifts the category has ever seen: the end of inquiry-based booking, the rise of instant book, the professionalization of hosts, the explosion of supply post-2020, and now, the dawn of a new era where quality, trust, and distribution matter more than raw inventory. In this conversation, we get into: When vacation rentals truly went mainstream Why Vrbo is prioritizing quality over raw supply The rise of branded portfolios and social-led demand Expedia Group's distribution advantage How One Key changes the funnel The real take on OTAs vs. direct Connect with Tim: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tim-rosolio-434b2a98/ Connect with Zach: https://www.linkedin.com/in/zacharybusekrus/ Apply to join the Journey Alliance: http://journey.com/alliance/   Behind the Stays is brought to you by Journey — a first-of-its-kind loyalty program that brings together an alliance of the world's top independently owned and operated stays and allows travelers to earn points and perks on boutique hotels, vacation rentals, treehouses, ski chalets, glamping experiences and so much more.

We often talk about living on a blue planet, but when we think we're talking about the ocean we're generally only discussing what's in it: fish, whales, pollution and ships. But that is to miss the biggest story on Earth, because it's the water itself that sets the scene for everything else. This lecture will outline how the ocean engine works – its internal anatomy, how the components move, and how this engine has directly influenced our history and culture.This lecture was recorded by Professor Helen Czerski on the 30th of October 2025 at Bernards Inn Hall, LondonDr Helen Czerski is a physicist and oceanographer with a passion for science, sport, books, creativity, hot chocolate and investigating the interesting things in life. She is an Associate Professor at the Department of Mechanical Engineering at University College London and her research focus is the physics of breaking waves and bubbles at the ocean surface. These bubbles change underwater sound and light, help transfer gases from ocean to atmosphere (helping the ocean breathe) and also eject ocean material into the air. She has spent months working on research ships in the Antarctic, the Pacific, the North Atlantic and the Arctic, and is an experienced field scientist. Helen has been a regular science presenter on the BBC for 15 years, covering the physics of the natural world in BBC2 landmark documentaries (including ‘Orbit', ‘Operation iceberg' and ‘Supersenses'), and the physics of everyday life in a range of BBC4 documentaries (including ‘From ice to fire: The incredible science of temperature', ‘Sound waves: The symphony of physics', and ‘Colour: The spectrum of science', along  with many others). She currently co-hosts BBC Radio 4's flagship climate and environment programme Rare Earth. Helen's first book Storm in a Teacup won the Italian Asimov Prize and the Louis J. Battan Author prize from the American Meteorological Society. Blue Machine won the Wainwright Prize for Conservation Writing. She was awarded the Institute of Physics Gold Medal in 2018 for her work on physics communication, and an Honorary Fellowship of the British Science Association in 2020. She has been a Trustee of Royal Museums Greenwich since 2018, and was one of the 2020 Royal Institution Christmas Lecturers, giving her Lecture on the topic of the ocean. The transcript of the lecture is available from the Gresham College website: https://www.gresham.ac.uk/watch-now/liquid-engineGresham College has offered free public lectures for over 400 years, thanks to the generosity of our supporters.

PresenterドクターDイングリッシュ発音ディレクター Dr. D・英語を「声」から変える発音専門スクール・１万人以上の発音を変えた実績・週３で淡路島に出没します突然ですが、"Vision" (ビジョン) と "Pigeon" (ピジョン)。 これら2つの単語、英語で発音するとき、同じ「ジ」の音になっていませんか？日本語のカタカナではどちらも「ジ」と表記されますが、実は英語では全く違う音として区別されています。「え、そうなの？」と思った方、多いかもしれません。 細かな違いなので、これまであまり意識してこなかったのではないでしょうか。でも大丈夫。この記事を読めば、その違いがハッキリとわかり、自信を持って発音できるようになります。 ヒントは日本語の「ジ」と「ヂ」の違い…と言いたいところですが、音声学的に言うと、もっと明確な違いがあります。それでは、いってみましょう！そもそも /ʒ/ と /dʒ/ は何が違う？まず、発音記号で見てみましょう。"Vision" の「ジ」は $/ʒ/$"Pigeon" の「ジ」は $/dʒ/$「D（/d/）が入ってるかどうか」が大きな違いですね。 これが具体的にどういうことかと言うと、**「音の出し方」**が根本的に違います。1. "Vision" の /ʒ/ は「摩擦音」/ʒ/ は摩擦音です。 これは、舌を口の中のどこにも当てずに、舌と上あご（口蓋）の間を狭めて、そこに息を通して「ザー」という摩擦を起こす音です。試しに「ジーーーーー」と、息が続く限り音を伸ばしてみてください。 これが /ʒ/ です。2. "Pigeon" の /dʒ/ は「破裂音」一方、/dʒ/ は破裂音（正確には破擦音）です。 こちらは、一度 /d/ の位置（舌先を上の歯茎のすぐ裏あたり）に舌をピタッと当てて息を止め、それを一気に「ヂッ！」と破裂させて出す音です。/ʒ/ のように「ジーーー」と伸ばし続けることはできず、「ジッ、ジッ、ジッ」と区切れてしまいます。日本語の「ジ」は、多くの場合こちらの /dʒ/ に近い音で発音されています。だからこそ、/ʒ/ の方が私たち日本人にとっては少し厄介なのです。まとめ:/ʒ/ (Vision): 舌を当てない。摩擦し続ける「ジー」。/dʒ/ (Pigeon): 舌を一度当てる。破裂させる「ヂッ」。見分け方は「スペル」にあり！では、いつ /ʒ/ になり、いつ /dʒ/ になるのでしょうか？ これには非常に分かりやすい「スペルの法則」があります。摩擦音 /ʒ/ (舌が当たらない) → "S"単語の中にある s のスペルが「ジ」の音になる場合、ほとんどがこの /ʒ/ になります。visionusualpleasuremeasurecasual破裂音 /dʒ/ (舌が当たる) → "G", "J"一方で、g や j のスペルが「ジ」の音になる場合は、/dʒ/ になります。pigeonangellargejeansjudgeこれで、どちらの音で発音すべきか、かなり判別しやすくなったはずです。【発音のコツ】/sh/ と /ch/ から練習しよう違いはわかったけれど、どうやって発音し分ければいいの？ という方のために、簡単な練習法をお教えします。それは、**無声音（声帯が震えない音）**のペアから練習することです。/ʒ/ (zh) は /ʃ/ (sh) の「有声音」 /ʃ/ (sh) は、「シーッ」と静かにするときに出す「シ」の音です。このとき、舌はどこにも当たっていませんよね。 この /ʃ/ (sh) の口の形・舌の位置のまま、声帯だけを震わせると、/ʒ/ (zh) の音になります。 「シー」→「ジー」（/ʃ/ → /ʒ/）/dʒ/ (j) は /tʃ/ (ch) の「有声音」 /tʃ/ (ch) は、「チッ」と舌打ちするときや、「チーズ」の「チ」の音です。このとき、舌はしっかり上あごに当たって破裂しています。 この /tʃ/ (ch) の動きのまま、声帯だけを震わせると、/dʒ/ (j) の音になります。 「チー」→「ヂー」（/tʃ/ → /dʒ/）この「無声音＋有声音」のセットで覚えるのが、発音習得の近道です。実践！単語ペアで練習ドリルそれでは、無声音と有声音のペアで、実際に単語を発音してみましょう。 （※発音表記は Dr. D スクール独自の読みやすい表記を使っています）1. 舌を当てない練習 (/ʃ/ → /ʒ/)/ʃ/ (sh): vicious /vi shus/ (悪意のある)/ʒ/ (zh): vision /vi zhun/ (ビジョン)/ʃ/ (sh): Patient /pei shunt/ (患者)/ʒ/ (zh): Asian /ei jun/ (アジアの) ※/ʒən/ が一般的ですが、/ʃən/ との対比として/ʃ/ (sh): Prosciutto /pruh shoo tow/ (プロシュート)/ʒ/ (zh): Garage /guh raazh/ (ガレージ) ※米語発音2. 舌を当てる練習 (/tʃ/ → /dʒ/)/tʃ/ (ch): cheese /cheez/ (チーズ)/dʒ/ (j): jeans /jeenz/ (ジーンズ)/tʃ/ (ch): Catch /kach/ (捕まえる)/dʒ/ (j): Edge /ej/ (端)/tʃ/ (ch): Kitchen /ki chin/ (キッチン)/dʒ/ (j): Engine /en jin/ (エンジン)どうですか？ 舌を「当てる・当てない」の意識が、音の明らかな違いを生むことを体感できたでしょうか。フレーズで仕上げる発音エクササイズ最後に、フレーズの中で2つの音を意識して練習してみましょう。ミニマルペア対決似た音の単語を対比させて練習します。(舌を当てない /ʒ/) Vision / Vision / Vision(舌を当てる /dʒ/) Region / Region / Region (地域)(舌を当てない /ʒ/) Pleasure / Pleasure / Pleasure (喜び)(舌を当てる /dʒ/) Major / Major / Major (専攻、主要な)(舌を当てない /ʒ/) Leisure / Leisure / Leisure (余暇)(舌を当てる /dʒ/) Ledger / Ledger / Ledger (台帳)センテンス練習ターゲットの音を強調して読んでみましょう。【/ʒ/ 練習 (舌を当てない)】It's my pleasure.I usually watch television.【/dʒ/ 練習 (舌を当てる)】He is a major.I read the journal generally.【混合練習 (意識して使い分ける！)】The angel (/dʒ/) had a usual (/ʒ/) message (/dʒ/). (その天使は、いつもの (/ʒ/) メッセージ (/dʒ/) を持っていた)まとめいかがだったでしょうか？ "Vision" /ʒ/ と "Pigeon" /dʒ/ の違い、そしてスペルのパターンとの関係性、伝わりましたでしょうか。/ʒ/ は「S」 → 舌を当てない摩擦音/dʒ/ は「G」や「J」 → 舌を当てて破裂させる音正直に言うと、この2つの音を間違えたからといって、会話が全く通じなくなることは稀です。文脈で伝わることがほとんどでしょう。 しかし、この違いを**「知っている」そして「意識できる」**ようになると、あなたの英語のリスニング力、そして発音の解像度は格段に上がります。「ネイティブはこの2つの音を無意識に使い分けているんだ」と知ることが、上達への第一歩です。

From the Skies Over Vietnam to the Power of Healing — The Story of Mike Penn  This week's Team Never Quit guest, Mike Penn, embodies courage, resilience, and grace under pressure. A Navy fighter pilot who served in Vietnam over 50 years ago, Penn's life took a dramatic turn on August 6, 1972, during his 85th combat mission off the USS Midway. Shot down and captured by enemy forces, he endured eight harrowing months as a POW in Hanoi, facing starvation, torture, and isolation. Losing 60 pounds and battling injuries from the crash, he survived where many did not. Upon returning home, Penn continued to serve his country before transitioning to a long and successful career as an airline pilot. Yet, his greatest battles weren't fought in the skies—they were fought within. Like countless Veterans, Penn wrestled with PTSD and alcoholism, learning that even the strongest warriors can't always go it alone. Penn credits his recovery and renewed purpose to sheer determination, the support of fellow Veterans, and the care he received through the Houston VA, which later discovered a life-threatening cancer during a routine scan—saving his life once again. Today, Penn continues to inspire others through motivational speaking, encouraging Veterans to seek help, share their stories, and lean on one another. His outlook remains deeply positive: despite his suffering, he still calls it “an honor to serve.” Join us as we hear Mike Penn's incredible journey—from fighter pilot to prisoner of war to survivor and mentor. His story is a testament to resilience, faith, and the healing power of community. Thank you, Mike Penn, for your honorable service—and for reminding us that healing begins when we choose to reach out. In this episode you will hear: • [Marcus] If you're struggling in college, get your butt in the military for4-6 years, come back, and you'll scream right through it. (6:54) • To get on the Blue Angels demo pilot team, they vote on you. It's a good ol' boy system. If any one guy says no, you're done. (9:30) • Out of nowhere this Marine Corps Master Gunnery Sergeant shows up right in my face. And he starts yelling at me, and honestly, I thought I was in the wrong place. When he gets through yelling at me, he says “You got anything to say for yourself you smart ass college boy?” I put my hand on his shoulder, looked him in the eyes, and I called him “sarge,” I said “Sarge, I really think I'm in the wrong place, because I cam down here to be a Navy jet pilot.” Boom! He threw me on the ground. I've never done so many push ups in my life. (12:21) • He got me in such good officer shape; I ended up becoming the Regimental Commander.  (13:19) • Landing at night is so difficult, because in the daytime you have depth perception. You're looking at the “Meatball,” the optical landing system. Line up with the ship, and your air speed. At night you can't see anything. (19:00) • [When missiles are fired at you] you see it lift off, you see it coming at you. You build up speed. When it gets to be about ¾ of a mile away from you, you do a high G roll into it. It tries to track on you, but it's going so fast, it can't. (29:00) • They were firing 3 from behind that we never saw, so when I tried to get more speed, one from behind hit me. Boom. Engine quit. Stated shaking like crazy. Immediately 8I turned toward the beach. (29:26) • When I got hit, I knew it was over. (30:14) • I reached up to fire the ejection seat. I pulled it, and nothing happened. Never quit. (31:10) • Once I hit the ground, I was in about a foot of water, and the bullets were hitting the water all around me. (34:02) • [Melanie: Q: What happens to the plane?”] A: It blew up right after I ejected. (34:49) • At 36:22, Mike tells the story of his treatment when he was taken by the enemy. • When we got there, we were just beat up and tied up. We had about 3 weeks of that. (41:25) • We had 24” concrete slabs on either side. That's what we slept on. (42:57) • We got no rice. The Vietnamese ate it all. (43:35) • My grandfather, who was an Army vet in Japan, when I went to war, he told me 2 things: Take care of your men, and don't ever give up.(44:36) • [Melanie: Q: How long were you in there as a POW”] A: 8 months. (47:27) • When I got to Oakland, I made beer milkshakes. (55:03) • When I was at Clark, first thing I did – I sat in the shower for 2 hours. (55:28) • Guess where I git [a new car]? I won it on Hollywood Squares. (71:19) • If I can save 1 life from [writing] that book, it's worth it.

frog North America's Head of Service Design, Bethany Brown, joins Lou to explore the intersection of service design, operations, and AI. With roots in industrial design and global experience across firms like EPA and Engine, Bethany brings a unique lens to tackling large-scale organizational friction. She walks us through a real-world case study from her upcoming talk at the Advancing Service Design conference (November 19-20), where her team used service design principles to help a company identify costly operational breakdowns, before applying AI to streamline processes and improve financial outcomes. Instead of leading with technology, Bethany's approach centers on deeply understanding human workflows, mapping them visually, and uncovering where systems are failing frontline workers. Through this lens, “operations” becomes less about rigid systems and more about the connective tissue of a service experience. And service design becomes the glue that aligns people, technology, and strategy. It's a talk—and a conversation—not to miss. Plus, Bethany shares the best career advice she ever received, and pays tribute to the educator who helped her realize design is an ever-evolving discipline, not a fixed path.

8. The Trans Earth Injection, Lovell's Navigation Error, and the Successful Reentry. Bob Zimmerman discusses how the Trans Earth Injection (TEI) was the mission's second moment of highest risk, requiring the non-redundant SPS engine to fire on the backside of the moon to propel them back to Earth. Susan Borman had been most anxious about this burn, knowing failure meant certain death in lunar orbit. When they reacquired signal, Jim Lovell famously declared, "I want to report that there is a Santa Claus," signaling success. On the return journey, Lovell, the navigator, accidentally cleared the navigation data in the computer (the gimbal), causing the spacecraft to lose orientation. Lovell was forced to correct the craft's position by manually using a sextant and taking readings from stars like Rigel and Sirius, proving the value of the backup system. Finally, they successfully executed the complex "double skip trajectory" reentry at 25,000 mph, landing within three miles of the recovery ships, though the capsule temporarily flipped upside down. 1618

For years, business owners have been told that starting a podcast is the ultimate marketing move — the one strategy that magically solves everything. And while I genuinely believe podcasts are among the most powerful visibility tools available, I've also seen how they can become a money-draining hobby instead of a high-ROI business asset.After working with podcasters across four continents, I've realized that many are unknowingly leaving money on the table — not because their show isn't great, but because their monetization strategy isn't aligned with their business model. Let's break down the five biggest ROI mistakes that could be quietly costing you growth and revenue.Chapters:00:00 - The Power of Podcasts in Business00:53 - Common Mistakes in Podcast Monetization02:11 - Exclusive Deals vs. Broad Reach05:07 - The Importance of Product Promotion08:48 - Ad Breaks: A Missed Opportunity13:42 - Selling Without Being Salesy17:17 - The Fallacy of Affiliate Marketing1. Exclusive Distribution Without a Data-Backed ReturnMany business owners see creators landing “exclusive” deals with Spotify or Samsung and think that's the ultimate success metric. But here's the reality — exclusivity limits your reach unless the platform can prove it will drive revenue or audience growth. Unless they can show data, testimonials, or client case studies that back up the ROI, you're better off being everywhere (including YouTube)!2. Misalignment Between What You Sell and What You SayThis is one of the most expensive mistakes I see. Too many podcasters are producing content their ideal clients don't actually need. If your episodes aren't directly connected to the problems your business solves, you're building awareness with the wrong audience.3. Skipping Ad Breaks (and Missing Sponsorship Readiness)Here's a simple test: can someone listen to your show and instantly visualize where their ad could go? If not, you're missing out. Even if you're not running ads yet, including clear ad breaks (“We'll be right back after this quick message…”) signals to brands that you understand structure.4. Educating Endlessly — and Forgetting to SellA lot of purpose-driven creators fear that selling will make them sound pushy. But education without goal connection will lead to creator burnout. Today's content landscape is noisy, and subtlety doesn't pay the bills.5. Prioritizing Affiliate Links Over Your Own ProductsAffiliate links can be tempting, but they rarely create meaningful income for small, niche shows. Let's do the math: promoting a $30/month tool with a 10% commission might earn you $3. Promoting your own $500 coaching session or $95 digital product could earn you hundreds or thousands.The Real ROI Shift: Treating Your Podcast Like a Business ToolWhen you start structuring your podcast like a revenue engine — not a random content platform — everything changes. You create episodes intentionally. You align your call-to-actions. You attract sponsors who share your values. And suddenly, your show isn't an expense — it's an asset.Podcasting is still one of the most effective visibility tools for service-based business owners. The difference between a show that drains your energy and one that drives consistent ROI is strategy.Resources mentioned in this episode:For the full list of links, resources and show notes, please visit:https://www.thepodcastspace.com/podcast/s4-108-how-to-turn-your-podcast-from-a-time-sink-into-a-sales-engine

Robert Moseley is the founder and CEO of GTM Engine. GTM Engine is a new AI platform that not only automates the administrative part of sales and sales leadership…but more importantly prescribes leaders how they can have better…more individualized…and more impactful coaching conversations. Coaching is the ultimate sales leadership superpower and the skill that separates the elite sales leaders from the average ones. And research continues to show that leaders are NOT as good or as impactful at coaching as they would like to think they are. Too many rely only on data…or content for coaching. Today, Robert joins the show to share how the best leaders move past the content and become contextual coaches. Contextual coaches outperform content-driven coaches by orders of magnitude. And that's why every leader should pay attention to this conversation and the work that is happening at GTM Engine. You can connect with Robert on LinkedIn here.
