Kris is a professional FBA seller, a podcast host and an account executive at Sellozo. Kris has always been entrepreneurial and enjoyed the thrill of selling items, from selling items at garage sales as a kid to mowing yards and then selling clothes on eBay. Kris learned how to sell physical products on Amazon in 2013, starting out by selling things around the house. He learned the basics of retail arbitrage and started sourcing his own products. Kris launched his first product in 2014 after watching YouTube videos and listening to podcasts. Currently, Kris has four brands and enjoys helping other sellers on Amazon. Kris hosts a podcast with Dustin, another seller, where they talk about industry leaders and other sellers. So welcome to the podcast today, Kris.Kris 00:00:52  That's quite the intro there. Josh. That's pretty good. I'm gonna have to take a couple notes there and kind of implement those on our own podcast. That was really good.Josh 00:01:00  Hey. Well, you have, you have a good bio yourself.Josh 00:01:03  I think that's that's why it sounds so good to you. So I want to dive in a little bit more with, how you're building that audience with insert cards. You know, we do the same thing with our brand. I don't know that I necessarily see that as, like, overly gray. I mean, you look at like a box of, you know, grab some Clorox wipes. Right. What's on the product label for Clorox wipes? it's the P&G website. Right. So like and they have like a, you know, they're not saying like, hey, come register your warranty per se, but like they have links to their social media, right? They have their icons, they have their website on there. So like I don't think people need to be as scared about that. Right. But what are you seeing working really well when it comes to product inserts?Kris 00:01:49  Well if anything good out of Covid came, it's that people were more adapted to QR codes. So people like start to they know what that is now.Kris 00:02:00  And so QR code like that just not people realize, oh I can scan that. So a QR code insert that is has some type of messaging messaging like so thank you. you know, get your free gift. there's, there's things that, that I'm doing now where, somebody scans it, they go to a landing page. in that landing page, they give name, email address, order ID number, and that just kind of verifies that the order matches with Amazon order. So we're not just getting spammed for free gift. Yeah. And they scan it and we just give a free gift out. And, all they got to do is provide us with their name and their email address. we're think about adding their mailing address there, just to kind of have that for like a backup plan to do postcards. I get a random side note here, but I bought something Amazon like literally 60 days later, I got a gift. Like a postcard in the mail. Really? How'd this? How'd this guy know to send me this postcard for another item? So, like, reverse engineering? That's kind of fun for me.Kris 00:03:07  So I'm trying to figure that out, but, Yeah, the insert scan, QR code landing page. Basic information. No first name, last name, email address, and then the order ID. we're using a tool called, It's going away from me. Zapier or Zapier, however you want to pronounce. Okay, that that, links up order IDs so that, when they type in your ID, it matches correctly with the order ID inside your account. and then from there, we send them a free sample and the free sample. You know, it's just something to, like, get them to engage with us, maybe try another product that we're thinking about launching down the road. it also just allows them to, like, feel warm and fuzzy. So maybe that when that review request does come and that that review request is done by Amazon, we're not sending any more like, hey, give us a five star review. We're just leaving it more like providing value. And whenever they get something from Amazon that says, how would you rate your experience with so-and-so brand? Maybe they think, hey, that was a good brand.Kris 00:04:06  I'll leave a five star review, so we're leaving that alone.Josh 00:04:09  So you're not even touching reviews. You're not.Kris 00:04:11  Even to touch.Josh 00:04:12  It. Yep.Kris 00:04:13  Yeah. Just leaving like just value.Josh 00:04:15  Yeah. I agree 100% with the, you know, not even touching reviews. We we've made the same decision because we have opt in flows and all of that. And everybody's like why don't you ask for a review? And it's like, I'm not even touching it with a ten foot pole.Kris 00:04:28  Because not anymore.Josh 00:04:29  That's that's the one thing that like is if Amazo...

Since the start of Russia's full-scale invasion, she has been actively engaged in civic advocacy, public campaigning, and street actions in Brussels in support of Ukraine. An urbanist by training, Olena holds an MSc in Urban Studies from the Free University of Brussels.----------Serhiy Onyshchenko is a Ukrainian civic activist and IT professional, now active within Belgium's civil society in support of Ukraine. His engagement began as a schoolboy during the Orange Revolution and continued through the Euromaidan, where he was attacked in Kharkiv for his activism. After relocating to Lviv in 2015, he helped build and organise his residential community. Following the full-scale invasion in 2022, Serhiy moved to Brussels, where he has co-organised demonstrations and advocates for sustained European support for Ukraine.----------The Steel Porcupine https://www.thesteelporcupine.com/I'm proud to say that this series of ‘Ukrainian advent' interviews is supported by The Steel Porcupine – a unique and powerful film about a country that refuses to lie down, a people who turned themselves into a fortress of needles when Russian tanks rolled in. The Steel Porcupine is an unforgettable cinematic experience that exposes Russia's campaign of extermination in Ukraine, and the Ukrainian people's spirit to resist and prevail. It follows soldiers, volunteers and people who decided that survival meant resistance, not submission.Created by the makers of the acclaimed To the Zero Line, this is another film about humanity, that clearly states there is no such thing as neutrality when war crimes are being committed systematically by Russia, and on a scale in Europe only comparable to World War Two. Set to a haunting soundtrack featuring music by Philip Glass, and blending rare archival footage with original material, it is an impactful work of art and storytelling, as well as being informative.----------WORKS NOMINATED BY: Olena Kuzhym and Serhiy Onyshchenko BOOKSIvan Bahriany - Tiger Trappers https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiger_TrappersFILMSDmytro Sukholytkyy-Sobchuk - Pamfirhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PamfirWORKS OF ARTMykola Pymonenko - Easter morning liturgy or Easter Matinshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mykola_Pymonenko(Actually stolen by the Russian army from the Kherson Art Museum)----------LINKS:https://frozen-assets.eu/https://war-sanctions.gur.gov.ua/en/stolen/objects/1764----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain----------TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND:Save Ukrainehttps://www.saveukraineua.org/Superhumans - Hospital for war traumashttps://superhumans.com/en/UNBROKEN - Treatment.

Presented by: Global Training Center Episode Summary This episode concludes Simply Trade's four-part special collaboration with the National Customs Brokers & Forwarders Association of America (NCBFAA), with NCBFAA hosting its own in-depth legal roundtable focused on what trade professionals must prepare for in 2026. Moderated by Laurie Arnold, Secretary of NCBFAA, this candid discussion brings together the association's legal counsel to unpack legislative priorities, regulatory uncertainty, enforcement trends, and agency staffing challenges impacting customs brokers, freight forwarders, and the broader trade community. From tariff volatility and BIS rulemaking to FMC enforcement, PGA staffing shortages, and heightened CBP scrutiny, this final episode provides practical guidance and forward-looking insight for navigating an increasingly complex compliance environment. Key Learnings & Themes 1. Legislative Outlook for 2026 Nicole Bivens-Collinson highlights legislative activity to monitor closely, including: Potential restrictions on non-resident importers acting as importers of record The proposed ADAPT Act, designed to curb last-minute tariff changes by requiring advance notice and implementation timelines NCBFAA continues advocating for policy that is predictable, transparent, and operationally realistic for the trade community. 2. PGA Engagement Amid Staffing Losses Cindy Thomas explains how Partner Government Agencies are experiencing: Accelerated retirements and buyouts Loss of institutional knowledge Inconsistent enforcement and communication Despite these challenges, agencies increasingly rely on NCBFAA to help communicate policy changes clearly and consistently to the trade community. 3. BIS 50% Rule: Paused, Not Eliminated Ashley Craig discusses the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) 50% rule, currently suspended for one year: The rule is expected to return in some form Congressional intervention remains possible Due diligence expectations on intermediaries continue to grow The panel stresses that this pause should be used to prepare — not delay. 4. FMC Enforcement & Transportation Risk Ashley also outlines increasing enforcement activity by the Federal Maritime Commission (FMC), including: Heightened scrutiny of tariffs and service contracts Significant recent penalties Ongoing regulatory uncertainty driven by staffing changes Transportation compliance remains a key risk area heading into 2026. 5. Tariffs, CBP Enforcement & Revenue Collection Lenny Feldman provides insight into: Aggressive CBP enforcement tied to tariff programs Significant increases in duty collections through entry summary reviews Elevated penalty exposure without mitigation strategies He emphasizes proactive compliance, internal reviews, and preparation before CBP initiates enforcement actions. 6. Practical Steps Trade Professionals Must Take Now Panelists recommend: Ensuring importers maintain active ACE Portal access Monitoring liquidation timelines and protest deadlines Reviewing valuation, classification, and origin methodologies Updating broker terms & conditions and powers of attorney Conducting internal compliance reviews proactively Preparation is no longer optional — it is essential. Key Takeaways Enforcement is increasing across CBP, BIS, FMC, and PGAs Legislative and regulatory volatility is the new normal NCBFAA advocacy plays a critical role in shaping workable policy Brokers and forwarders are more essential than ever as compliance partners Proactive strategy consistently outperforms reactive defense Resources Mentioned Organizations & Agencies National Customs Brokers & Forwarders Association of America (NCBFAA) U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) Federal Maritime Commission (FMC) Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) Trade & Compliance Topics ACE Portal (Automated Commercial Environment) Section 232, 301, and 201 Tariffs BIS 50% Rule BIS Affiliate Rule ADAPT Act (Proposed) Ocean Shipping Reform Act of 2022 Credits Guest Host & Moderator: Laurie Arnold — Secretary, NCBFAA Panelists: Nicole Bivens-Collinson — Legislative Advisor, NCBFAA Cindy Thomas — Counsel, Partner Government Agencies Ashley Craig — Transportation Counsel Lenny Feldman — Customs & Trade Counsel Presented by: Global Training Center Global Training Center on LinkedIn Subscribe & Follow Simply Trade YouTube Spotify Apple Podcasts Trade Geeks Community

In this episode, the CardioNerds (Dr. Natalie Tapaskar, Dr. Jenna Skowronski, and Dr. Shazli Khan) discuss the process of heart transplantation from the initial donor selection to the time a patient is discharged with Dr. Dave Kaczorowski and Dr. Jason Katz. We dissect a case where we understand criteria for donor selection, the differences between DBD and DCD organ donors, the choice of vasoactive agents in the post-operative period, complications such as cardiac tamponade, and the choice of immunosuppression in the immediate post-operative period. Most importantly, we highlight the importance of multi-disciplinary teams in the care of transplant patients. Audio editing for this episode was performed by CardioNerds Intern, Dr. Julia Marques Fernandes.

Pearls When thinking about donor selection, you need to consider how much physiologic stress your recipient can tolerate, and this may guide your selection of “higher risk” or “lower risk” donors.   The use of DCD donors has increased the potential donor pool and shortened waitlist times with very similar perioperative outcomes to DBD transplantation.  Post-operative critical care management rests on a fundamental principle to apply as much inotropic/vasoactive therapy as needed to achieve some reasonable physiologic hemostasis, and then getting “the heck out of the way!” There are no standard regimens as practices vary across centers, but rest on providing adequate RV support, maintaining AV synchrony, and early resuscitation.   The RV is fickle and doesn't take a joke too well. RV dysfunction post-transplant is important to watch for, and it can be transient or require aggressive support. Don't miss assessing for cardiac tamponade which can require surgical evacuation- “where there's space, that space can be filled with fluid.”   Induction immunosuppression post-transplant varies across centers, but some considerations for use may include (1) high sensitization of the patient, (2) high risk immunologic donor-recipient matching, and (3) recipient renal dysfunction to provide a calcineurin inhibitor (CNI) sparing regimen long term.  Management of heart transplant patients is a multi-disciplinary effort that requires coordination amongst heart failure/transplant cardiologists, cardiac surgeons, anesthesiologists, pathology/immunologists and a slew of ancillary services. Without a dynamic and collaborative team, successful cardiac transplantation could not be possible.  Notes Notes: Notes drafted by Dr. Natalie Tapaskar  What are the basic components of donor heart selection? In practicality, it can be a very inexact science, but we use some basic selection criteria such as: (1) size matching (2) ischemic time (3) donor graft function (4) immunologic compatibility (5) age of the potential donor and recipient (6) severity of illness of the recipient (7) regional variation in donor availability When thinking about accepting older donors (>50 years old), we ideally would screen for donor coronary disease and try to keep ischemic times as short as possible. We may accept an older donor for a recipient who is highly sensitized, which leaves a smaller potential donor pool. There is no clear consensus on size matching, but the predicted heart mass is most used. We are generally more comfortable oversizing than under-sizing donor hearts. Serial echocardiography is important in potential donors as initially reduced ejection fractions can improve on repeat testing, and these organs should not be disregarded automatically. For recipients who are more surgically complex, (i.e. multiple prior sternotomies or complex anatomy), it's probably preferable to avoid older donors with some graft dysfunction and favor donors with shorter ischemic times. What is the difference between DBD and DCD? DBD is donation after brain death- these donors meet criteria for brain death. Uniform Determination of Death Act 1980: the death of an individual is The irreversible cessation of circulatory and respiratory functions or The irreversible cessation of all functions of the entire brain, including those of the brain stem DCD is donation after circulatory death- donation of the heart after confirming that circulatory function has irreversibly ceased. Only donors in category 3 of the Maastricht Classification of DCD donors are considered for DCD donations: anticipated circulatory arrest (planned withdrawal of life-support treatment). DCD hearts can be procured via direct procurement or normothermic regional perfusion (NRP). The basic difference is the way the hearts are assessed, either on an external circuit or in the donor body. For the most complex recipient, DCD may not be utilized at some centers due to concern for higher rates of delayed graft function, but this is center specific and data is still evolving. What are some features surgeons consider when procuring the donor heart? Visual assessment of the donor heart is key in DBD or NRP cases. LV function may be hard to assess, but visually the RV can be inspected. Palpation of the coronary arteries is important to assess any calcifications or abnormalities. Ventricular arrhythmias at the time of procurement may be concerning. Key considerations in the procurement process: (1) Ensuring the heart remains decompressed at all times and doesn't become distended (2) adequate cardioplegia delivery (3) aorta is cross-clamped properly all the way across the vessel (4) avoiding injury to adjacent structures during procurement What hemodynamic parameters should we monitor and what vasoactive agents are used peri-heart transplant? There is no consensus regarding vasoactive agent use post-transplant and practice varies across institutions. Some commonly seen regimens may include: (1) AAI pacing around 110 bpm to support RV function and preserve AV synchrony (2) inotropic agents such as epinephrine and dobutamine to support RV function (3) pulmonary vasodilators such as inhaled nitric oxide to optimize RV afterload Early post-transplant patients tend to have low cardiac filling pressures and require preload monitoring and resuscitation initially. Slow weaning of inotropes as the patient shows signs of stable graft function and hemodynamics. RV dysfunction may manifest as elevated central venous pressure with low cardiac index or hypotension with reducing urine output. Optimize inotropic support, volume status, metabolic status (acidosis and hypoxia), afterload (pulmonary hypertension), and assess for cardiac tamponade. Tamponade requires urgent take-back to the operating room to evacuate material. Refractory RV failure requires mechanical circulatory support, with early consideration of VA-ECMO. Isolated RV MCS may be used in the right clinical context. Why do pericardial effusions/cardiac tamponade happen after transplant? They are not uncommon after transplant and can be due to: Inherent size differences between the donor and recipient (i.e. if the donor heart is much smaller than the recipient's original heart) Bleeding from suture lines and anastomoses, pacing wires, and cannulation sites Depending on the hemodynamic stability of the patient and the location of the effusion, these effusions may require urgent return to the OR for drainage/clot evacuation via reopening the sternotomy, mini thoracotomy, and possible pericardial windows. What are the basics of immunosuppression post-transplant? Induction immunosuppression is variably used and is center-specific. Considerations for using induction therapy may include: (1) high sensitization of the patient (2) younger patients or multiparous women with theoretically more robust immune systems (3) crossing of recipient antibodies with donor antigens (3) renal function to provide a CNI sparing regimen long term Some considerations for avoiding induction may include: (1) older age of the recipient (2) underlying comorbid conditions such as infections or frailty of the recipient What are expected activity restrictions post-transplant? Sternal precautions are important to maintain sternal wire integrity. Generally avoiding lifting >10 pounds in the first 4-12 weeks, no driving usually in the first 4 weeks, monitoring for signs and symptoms of wound infections, and optimizing nutrition and physical activity. Cardiac rehabilitation is incredibly important as soon as feasible. References Kharawala A , Nagraj S , Seo J , et al.

Big data is changing how we play games by tailoring experiences to individual preferences. In Ireland, this shift is evident as players enjoy more personalised interactions on gaming platforms. The impact of big data is significant, offering benefits to both players and operators. The integration of big data into the gaming sector marks a significant evolution in how online casino experiences are crafted. For players in Ireland, this means more personalised, engaging encounters that reflect their unique gaming styles and preferences. As you navigate the evolving landscape of online casino in Ireland, it becomes evident that big data analytics plays a crucial role in shaping these experiences. This article explores how big data is transforming the gaming industry, focusing on its applications, benefits, challenges, and future prospects within the Irish context. Big data's impact on the gaming industry Big data has become a cornerstone of technological advancement, impacting various sectors globally, including gaming. In Ireland, the incorporation of big data into gaming platforms has significantly altered how games are experienced. This digital evolution involves collecting vast amounts of data from players' interactions and using sophisticated algorithms to analyse this information. This analytical process enables gaming companies to gain insights into player behaviour, preferences, and trends. By doing so, they can enhance game design, improve user interfaces, and develop features that resonate with players. Big data's role in this sector not only improves the user experience but also provides operators with valuable tools for innovation and competitiveness. Personalisation boosts user engagement One of the most striking applications of big data in gaming is personalisation. By analysing player data, gaming platforms can offer tailored experiences that align closely with individual preferences. For instance, recommendation engines suggest games based on your previous interactions, making your gaming journey more engaging and enjoyable. These personalised features extend to promotions and bonuses tailored to your playing habits. When you log into a platform, you might notice special offers specifically designed for your favourite games or playing style. Such targeted marketing not only boosts player satisfaction but also fosters loyalty and increases retention rates among users. Benefits for players and operators in Ireland The benefits of big data extend beyond personalised experiences for players; they also offer substantial advantages for operators. Players enjoy a more immersive experience with customised game recommendations and promotions that cater directly to their interests. This level of personalisation keeps them engaged and encourages longer play sessions. For operators, big data provides a strategic advantage through improved customer insights and targeted marketing campaigns. By understanding player behaviour and preferences more deeply, operators can devise strategies to enhance player satisfaction and retention. Moreover, effective use of analytics allows operators to optimise their offerings, ensuring they remain competitive in a rapidly evolving market. Challenges in implementing big data solutions While the benefits of big data are clear, implementing these solutions does come with challenges. One major concern is ensuring data privacy and security for users. As operators collect vast amounts of personal information, they must implement robust measures to protect this data from breaches or misuse. Additionally, ethical considerations play a vital role in maintaining user trust. Operators must balance the use of personal data with transparency about how it is being used. Ensuring compliance with regulations like GDPR is crucial to avoid legal repercussions and maintain user confidence. Future trends in gaming and big data The future of big data in gaming appears promising as technology continues to evolve....

Back in 2011, FedRAMP was put together because each federal agency had to conduct its own time-consuming security audit. The idea was to standardize security to reduce costs and accelerate cloud adoption.   About ten years later, state leaders saw the same problem. Over the years, they worked out a security guidance package that was released this year. GovRAMP was launched to address many of the same challenges faced by the federal government: to establish a standard that enables transparency, standardization, and community. GovRamp's framework is based on NIST 800-53 rev5.   Tony O'Neil from Massachusetts observed that before GovRAMP, each state had a patchwork of security guidelines. With so much variation across states, a simplified environment could reduce costs and enable leaders to adopt a mindset of investing in people.   Today, we sat down with data security experts who detailed the implementation of compliance to improve data security and compliance. The conversation also covered the importance of continuous monitoring, the role of CSPs in maintaining security, and the necessity of proper resource allocation for cybersecurity professionals.        

State Department Strategy and Moscow — Mary Kissel — Kissel explains that State Department strategic objectives prioritize implementing President Trump's directive to remove Maduro from Venezuelan power while ensuring American national security and hemispheric stability. Kissel details that Trump envoys currently in Moscow encounter Putin's two-track negotiating strategy: offering economic incentives for Russian reintegration into global markets while simultaneously demanding substantial Ukrainian territorial concessions and NATO exclusion from Eastern Europe. Kissel emphasizes the strategic complexity of reconciling U.S. interests in Ukrainian sovereignty with Russian security demands regarding sphere of influence and buffer state arrangements. 1961 BERLIN

What does it take to lead with both purpose and perseverance? In this episode of Legendary Leaders, host Cathleen O'Sullivan sits down with Kate Grant—CEO of the Fistula Foundation and author of No Woman Left Behind—whose remarkable journey from Madison Avenue to global health leadership reveals what can happen when compassion meets conviction.    Kate shares how walking away from a thriving advertising career became the first step toward transforming the lives of more than 100,000 women suffering from obstetric fistula—a preventable childbirth injury that still affects over a million women in the world's most underserved regions. With honesty and humility, she opens up about redefining success, the courage it takes to stay focused on one mission, and how saying "no" to good ideas is often the price of real impact. Cathleen O'Sullivan (Merkel)   Together, Cathleen and Kate explore the intersection of leadership, purpose, and humanity—what it means to build something that lasts, lead with heart, and never look away from the people and problems that need us most. This conversation is for anyone who believes leadership is less about power and more about the lives we choose to touch.     Episode Timeline:   00:03:34 What is obstetric fistula and why it still exists  00:07:39 The devastating social cost: ostracism, shame, and isolation  00:16:21 A survivor's story: 30 years of suffering and the gift of a chicken  00:28:30 Building a global network: from one hospital to 35 countries  00:33:12 The fundraising approach: efficiency, focus, and saying no  00:38:25 Ensuring quality: working with expert surgeons and measuring outcomes  00:47:15 Leaving Madison Avenue: when success isn't enough  00:53:05 The earthquake and breakup that cracked everything open  01:03:11 Redefining success: career, motherhood, and the myth of having it all  01:10:00 What's next: stepping down and training as a therapist  01:19:16 Final wisdom: listen to your inner voice and own your choices     Key Takeaway:   A Hidden Crisis with a Solution: Obstetric fistula—a childbirth injury from obstructed labor—affects at least one million women in Africa and Asia, leaving them incontinent and ostracized. Yet 90% of cases are fixable with surgery, making this needless suffering Kate refuses to accept. Relentless Focus Drives Impact: The Fistula Foundation does one thing exceptionally well—funding surgeries—and has helped over 100,000 women by resisting mission creep, measuring outcomes rigorously, and treating the nonprofit like a results-driven business. Listen to Your Inner Voice: Kate left a successful advertising career after travel exposed her to global poverty and an earthquake cracked her life open—proving that transformation requires quieting external voices and giving your own inner compass a microphone. Empowerment Through Accountability: When problems arise, assume you created them—not to blame yourself, but to empower yourself to learn and fix what's broken rather than playing victim to circumstances or other people. You Can't Have It All at Once: Success means making intentional choices about where to invest finite energy—Kate chose her son and the foundation over remarriage, showing that owning your trade-offs without apology is more honest than pretending you can do everything equally well.     About Kate Grant:   Kate Grant is a global health and social-impact leader with over 25 years of experience advancing maternal health and women's rights worldwide. As President & CEO of Fistula Foundation, she has expanded access to life-changing surgeries for thousands of women across Africa and Asia while building high-performing teams and partnerships with governments and NGOs. She is also the author of No Woman Left Behind – A Journey of Hope to Heal Every Woman Injured in Childbirth, a memoir highlighting her journey from a corporate career to leading a global health movement. Known for her equity-focused, collaborative leadership, Kate's mission is to ensure every woman has the opportunity to live a healthy, dignified life.     Connect with Kate Grant: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kate-grant-92110561/  Website: https://fistulafoundation.org/  No Woman Left Behind (Book): https://fistulafoundation.org/no-woman-left-behind/      Connect with Cathleen O'Sullivan:  Business: https://cathleenosullivan.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cathleen-osullivan/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/legendary_leaders_cathleenos/      FOLLOW LEGENDARY LEADERS ON APPLE, SPOTIFY OR WHEREVER YOU LISTEN TO YOUR PODCASTS

The Importance of the Final Walkthrough: What Buyers & Sellers Need to Know Insights from Talk Real Estate Roundtable with Boston Connect Real Estate At Boston Connect Real Estate, we believe that education is one of the most valuable tools we can provide buyers and sellers. In a recent episode of Talk Real Estate Roundtable, hosts Melissa Wallace and Tracy Grady took a deep dive into one of the final and most important steps of a real estate transaction: the final walkthrough. While often overlooked, this critical step can make the difference between a smooth closing and a stressful one. Here's what every buyer and seller should know before closing day arrives. What Is a Final Walkthrough? A final walkthrough typically occurs within 24 hours of closing. It is not another home inspection. Instead, it is the buyer's opportunity to confirm that: The home is in the same condition as when the offer was accepted. No new damage has occurred during the seller's move-out. All systems and mechanicals that worked previously still operate as expected. All agreed-upon repairs have been completed. The seller has fully vacated and met the “broom clean” requirement. All items that were supposed to stay including appliances, fixtures, and window treatments—are still in place. For sellers, the walkthrough is the last checkpoint before passing ownership to the new buyers. For buyers, it is a chance to ensure they're walking into the home they expect. The Purpose: Peace of Mind for Buyers During the walkthrough, buyers are looking for confirmation not perfection. This includes: ✔ Verifying Completed Repairs If the home inspection revealed issues that were resolved by the seller, buyers should: Bring the repair list from the P&S and inspection addendum Review receipts, warranties, or certificates Confirm the work was completed professionally For example, the agents discussed a home with mold remediation in the attic, which required certificates to be transferred to the buyer. These documents are essential, and buyers should receive them before closing day. ✔ Ensuring the Home is Empty & Clean In Massachusetts, sellers are required to leave the home in broom-clean condition meaning: Floors swept Surfaces wiped Cabinets empty No debris left behind Most sellers go above and beyond, arranging for a professional cleaning crew. But buyers should still inspect kitchens, drawers, appliances, and the garage or basement for stray items. ✔ Checking for Move-Out Damage Even the most careful sellers can accidentally cause damage while moving. Buyers should look for: Floor scratches from dragging furniture Damaged walls where TVs, shelves, or decor were removed Water leaks from disconnected appliances Broken windows or hardware previously hidden by furniture The show even recalled a real example where a safe dropped during move-out, damaging exterior brick steps, proof that anything can happen! What Buyers Should Not Do During the Walkthrough A final walkthrough is not the time to retest every appliance or mechanical system unless no inspection was completed. Generally: You do not run the dishwasher through a full cycle You do not retest the heating system, stove, or electrical systems You do not make new demands unrelated to the home's condition These were already addressed during the home inspection. What Sellers Should Leave Behind (and What They Shouldn't) ✔ Items Sellers May Leave (With Permission) Matching paint for touch-ups Extra floorboards, tiles, or siding Window screens or storm windows Pool equipment and maintenance tools Manuals, remotes, and spare keys Communication is key, nothing should be left without confirming the buyer wants it. ✘ Items Sellers Should Never Leave Without Approval Old or hazardous paint cans Chemicals, oil, or propane tanks Construction debris Broken furniture or outdated patio sets Food or cleaning supplies Kiddie pools, swing sets, or other large items not negotiated Items stored in the attic or basement that were simply forgotten The agents discussed common oversights  like sellers accidentally leaving old gardening stakes, basement junk, or even full hockey bags buried in attic corners. Handling Unexpected Surprises The walkthrough is where last-minute surprises can derail a transaction. Some real-life examples from the episode included: A tree falling through a condo roof prior to closing A sump pump failure causing basement flooding Unremoved outdoor furniture despite multiple reminders Refrigerators dragged across floors, causing large scratches Issues like these must be resolved before the buyer signs on closing day. Why This Step Matters For most people, buying a home is the largest financial decision they'll ever make. The final walkthrough: Protects buyers from unexpected expenses Ensures the property condition complies with the P&S Builds trust between both parties Sets the tone for a smooth closing And for sellers? A clean, worry-free walkthrough is the last opportunity to leave a great impression.

In this episode, Mike Dell digs into “how to drive in the snow” — timely for Northern Michigan (and anywhere else where winter hits) and packed with practical advice from his experience. Key Topics Covered: The importance of reducing speed when roads get snowy — Mike's rule of thumb: about 10 mph less than the posted speed limit when snow first covers the roads. Planning extra time for trips: leaving earlier, anticipating traffic delays and slower conditions. Tire considerations: Ensuring you have good tires — if you're riding on bald all-seasons or summer tires, winter traction will suffer. The value of genuine snow tires (Mike's wife uses Nokian Hakkapeliitta). Using your 4-wheel drive / all-wheel drive appropriately: yes, it can help with takeoff, but it does not help you stop any faster. Practicing skid control: find an empty parking lot and experiment with sliding, skids, recovery — to build feel and confidence before you have to use it on a public road. Clearing your vehicle of snow & ice before driving: windows, side & back, even the roof can matter (if snow slides forward, covers your windshield). Vehicle maintenance tips for winter: topping off washer fluid, checking tires, inflation, fluid levels, making sure everything is in good shape before the real winter hits. The overarching message: slow down, leave earlier, prepare your vehicle, drive mindfully — all so you avoid bending your car, hurting someone, or getting stuck in a snowbank. Quote Highlights: “Don't ever be in a hurry while driving on snow.” “Just please, please realize … four-wheel drive does not make you stop any quicker.” “If you're not used to driving in snow, go find an empty parking lot … figure out when the car goes out of control and how to get it back.” Why this matters: For those of us flying, working, commuting or traveling in winter-weather regions (like Northern Michigan), conditions can change rapidly. The same mindset of preparation and respect for environment that applies in aviation carries over to road driving: equipment (tires, maintenance), environment (snow/ice, slower speeds), and mindset (leave earlier, anticipate, stay calm). This episode is a great reminder to apply that disciplined approach to driving when the snow starts. What's Next: Mike mentions he'll be talking about ham radio stuff in the next episode — so stay tuned. Who's this for: Drivers in winter-weather climates looking for refresher tips. Anyone who owns a 4WD/AWD vehicle and doesn't fully understand its limitations in snow. People who might have to drive in snow but don't feel confident — this could help build awareness and reduce risk. Listeners who appreciate aviation-style pre-flight (pre-drive?) checklists and disciplined preparation. Call to Action: Before the next snow, check your vehicle: tires, fluids, wipers/washer fluid, defroster, windows. Practice a skid-recovery session in a safe, empty area. When roads get snowy—slow down, leave earlier, and remember your stopping distance grows. Share this episode with someone you know who may not be comfortable driving in snow.

What does it take to build a team that consistently performs at a high level? In this episode, Kevin sits down with Dr. Vanessa Druskat to explore what emotionally intelligent teams look like and how leaders can foster them. Vanessa introduces the concept of "team emotional intelligence" and explains why team culture, not just individual skills or personalities, is often the key differentiator between average and high-performing teams. She shares her practical three-part model, based on nine team norms, that top teams use to create environments of trust, psychological safety, and accountability. Vanessa also discusses why emotionally intelligent teams are fundamentally about how people interact, not just how they feel. She reveals what leaders should do in the first meeting of a new team to set the tone for long-term performance, and why nonverbal behaviors and small habits matter more than you think.

In episode #328, Ben Murray walks through the inflection points when SaaS founders should consider hiring a bookkeeper and/or fractional CFO to protect data accuracy, improve forecasting, and strengthen company valuation. You'll learn the warning signs that your financial systems and reporting are holding back growth—and how to build a finance function that scales with your business. What You'll Learn When to hire help by ARR stage Monthly close discipline: Why closing your books every month—accurately—is critical for investor trust. Accrual vs. cash accounting: How switching methods reveals true business performance. COGS clarity: Setting up a SaaS P&L that separates revenue streams, COGS, and OPEX for real gross-margin insight. Retention readiness: Why your MRR schedule (revenue by customer by month) is worth its weight in gold. Cash-flow forecasting: How to move beyond the bank-balance mentality to proactive cash planning. Investor presentation: Ensuring your metrics, slide deck, and financial statements tie together cleanly. Why It Matters For Founders: Delegating finance isn't failure—it's a strategic step toward sustainable scaling and higher valuation. For CFOs and Advisors: Knowing these trigger points helps you coach founders on financial readiness. For Investors: A disciplined monthly close and clean P&L build confidence in revenue quality and forecasting accuracy. Key Takeaways Growth dictates urgency: the faster you scale, the earlier you need finance expertise. A bookkeeper should close the books by mid-month to avoid costly cleanup later. Move to accrual accounting to show economic performance and support fundraising. Create an accurate MRR schedule to prove retention and ARR health to investors. Build a basic forecast to manage cash runway and hiring decisions with confidence.

At some point, finance needs a specialist so the business can keep growing on solid data.”

This episode dives into the complex and often misunderstood MedTech market in China, featuring Elaine Tan, creator of MedTech Chopsticks, who translates the nation's stringent regulatory language into actionable insights. Elaine and host Etienne Nichols discuss the substantial risks and rewards of bringing a medical device to China, highlighting the country's rapid execution, intense internal competition, and the shift from low-end manufacturing to a focus on high-level innovation. A key risk is that existing international certifications (like ISO and IEC) do not guarantee compliance, requiring local type testing and adherence to specific national standards.The conversation addresses how global medical device companies can structure their strategy amid ongoing geopolitical shifts and the "China for China" policy, which favors domestic products through initiatives like the Volume-Based Procurement (VBP). Strategies such as the dual-strategy approach—localizing low-consumable manufacturing while protecting high-technology IP through joint ventures or careful CMO/CDMO selection—are explored as pragmatic ways to secure market presence and margin. Understanding the regulatory landscape, particularly the NMPA's 2021 overhaul, is crucial for success.Finally, Elaine provides practical guidance for regulatory professionals intimidated by the market. This includes understanding the specific regulatory and clinical pathways, performing a gap analysis against Chinese standards (Product Technical Requirements or PTR), and the critical process of selecting and qualifying a local partner/agent. Elaine reveals a specific, often overlooked hurdle: the agent must possess an NMPA-approved CA (Certification Authorization) USB key to electronically submit registration files on behalf of the foreign manufacturer, a critical piece of the submission puzzle. The discussion also touches on leveraging special zones, like the Hainan Free Trade Zone, for crucial real-world data collection applicable to the Chinese population.Key Timestamps[02:40] Introduction to Elaine Tan, MedTech Chopsticks, and the show's focus on the China market.[05:05] High-level risks and rewards: complexity, lengthy registration, local testing requirements, and IP concerns.[08:08] Discussing the NMPA's 2021 regulatory overhaul and the geopolitical shift toward "China for China."[11:00] The Dual Strategy approach: balancing low-end localization with protecting high-tech IP.[14:48] Using CDMOs/CMOs for pilot projects to manage financial investment risk.[16:20] Leveraging the Hainan Free Trade Zone (Bo'ao region) for pre-market clinical data collection and urgent needs product access.[18:42] Ethological differences and their impact on clinical data justification (e.g., Pulse Oximeters).[20:17] NMPA predicate search: The importance of using the Chinese Classification Catalog to find registered, local predicate devices.[23:00] Guidance for overwhelmed regulatory professionals entering the China market: Clinical strategy and Product Technical Requirements (PTR).[25:52] Pitfalls in partner selection: The necessity of the NMPA-approved CA (Certification Authorization) USB key for submissions.[29:30] Partner qualification: Ensuring the agent can support Post-Market Surveillance (PMS) and QMS self-inspection requirements.[30:52] Final pitfall: International compliance (ISO/IEC) does not automatically ensure China...
