In this solo episode of Business Coaching Secrets, Karl Bryan takes the reins, diving deep into strategies for client communication, drip campaigns, frameworks for business growth, and timeless investing wisdom inspired by Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger. With Rode Dog traveling, Karl delivers practical advice for coaches and their clients—from executing high-impact email sequences to structuring offers that sell and building true wealth through the power of compounding. Key Topics Covered Drip Campaigns & Funnels that Convert Karl Bryan breaks down the anatomy of effective drip campaigns—using not just email, but texts, voicemails, calls, and even direct mail—to stay top of mind and drive prospects towards action. He emphasizes nurturing, education, and persistence over hard selling, revealing real-world examples of campaigns that generated over a million dollars in revenue. Building High-End Programs and Upsell Funnels Karl encourages coaches to help clients create tightly defined, high-ticket programs ($10k, $25k, $50k+) with robust profit margins. He explains the importance of segmenting audiences and tailoring drip sequences, stressing that coaches should study successful operators in competitive markets to shortcut their own learning. The Psychology of Offers Discussion includes using urgency, scarcity, guarantees, bonuses, and exclusivity to motivate buyers—drawing on real-world tactics from luxury brands and industry leaders. Investing Wisdom from Warren Buffett & Charlie Munger Karl unpacks Buffett's two rules—don't lose money; see Rule #1—and shares how the path to true wealth is rooted in patience, clear math, and avoiding movement for movement's sake. He links these principles to business coaching, stressing the power of compounding marginal gains in practice, career, and investment. Actionable Wealth Creation Strategies Explores practical frameworks for investing in business, stocks (S&P index), and real estate, emphasizing dollar cost averaging, critical thinking, and learning from bubbles/past mistakes. Notable Quotes "Performance improves by releasing tension, judgment, and overthinking—not by piling it on." "Educated people buy more. Educate your leads through that sequence of emails, texts, calls, voicemails, etc. It's not buy, buy, it's educate, educate, educate." "Persistence is a measure of your self-esteem. Do you persist? Do you feel like you deserve the business?" "Rule #1: Don't lose money. Rule #2: See Rule #1. Avoiding stupidity automatically places you in the top 1% because the rest of the crowd is too busy chasing brilliance." "Real wealth is built the old boring way, staying the course, math as the foundation." Actionable Takeaways Expand Your Drip Campaigns Beyond Email: Utilize a sequence of texts, voicemails, calls, and direct mail in addition to emails to maximize client engagement. Educate Relentlessly: Focus on teaching and adding value through every touchpoint. Selling comes after trust and knowledge are built. Create Tightly Defined High-End Offers: Help clients establish premium programs with clear outcomes and strong margins; research top players in competitive markets for proven frameworks. Test, Measure, and Refine: Track the performance of campaigns and offers, adjust based on data rather than gut feelings, and always aim for compounding marginal improvements. Motivate Action With Urgency & Scarcity: Build "windows of opportunity," enrollment periods, and limited-time bonuses to prompt decisions. Lead with Guarantees and Exclusivity: Structure guarantees (money-back, buyback, long-term, double-your-money-back) and consider exclusive tiers or bonuses to differentiate. Avoid Movement for Movement's Sake: Apply Buffett and Munger's principles: patience, compounding, and critical thinking beats frequent switching and chasing trends. Invest with Dollar Cost Averaging: For wealth outside business, consistently invest fixed amounts into the S&P index or bitcoin, regardless of market cycles, and avoid leverage. Segment Your Audience: Tailor messaging and offers based on client behaviors and demographics for better results. Prioritize Compounding Improvements: Focus on small gains across multiple areas—these add up exponentially in your business and wealth over time.

Ed, Rob, and Jeremy took some time from Thursday's BBMS to speak with The Baltimore Sun's Mike Preston. Mike recently made some waves by saying that the Ravens should entertain trading Lamar Jackson at the end of the season. Should the really think about trading away a top 5 player in the league? Mike shares his thoughts.

Bishop Tony Percy says the reason people don't become saints is because they refuse to be themselves. But how? Think of the love that the Father has lavished on us, by letting us be called God's children, and that is what we are. Be Christ. Be ourselves

Before you build slides, get crystal clear on who you're speaking to and why you're speaking at all. From internal All-Hands to industry chambers and benkyōkai study groups in Japan, the purpose drives the structure, the tone, and the proof you choose.  What's the real purpose of a business presentation? Your presentation exists to create a specific outcome for a specific audience—choose the outcome first. Whether you need to inform, convince, persuade to action, or entertain enough to keep attention, the purpose becomes your design brief. In 2025's attention-scarce workplace—Tokyo to Sydney to New York—audiences bring "Era of Cynicism" energy, so clarity of intent is non-negotiable. Choose the one primary verb your talk must deliver (inform/convince/persuade/entertain) and align evidence, tone, and timing to that verb for executives, SMEs, and multinationals alike. Use decision criteria (see checklist below) before you touch PowerPoint or Keynote.  Do now: Write "The purpose of this talk is to ___ for ___ by ___." Tape it above your keyboard. How do I define my audience before I write a single slide? Profile the room first; the content follows. Map role seniority (board/C-suite vs. managers), cultural context (Japan vs. US/Europe norms), and decision horizon (today vs. next quarter). In Japan, executives prefer evidence chains and respect for hierarchy; in US tech startups, crisp bottom lines and next steps often win. For internal Town Halls, keep jargon minimal and tie metrics to team impact; for external industry forums, cite research, case studies, and trend lines from recognisable entities (Dale Carnegie, Toyota, Rakuten). Once you know the level, you can calibrate depth, vocabulary, and the "so what" that matters to them. Skip this step and you'll either drown them in detail or sound vague.  Do now: Write three bullets: "They care about…," "They already know…," "They must decide…". Inform, convince, persuade, or entertain—how do I choose? Pick one dominant mode and let the others support it. Inform for internal/industry updates rich in stats, expert opinion, and research (think "Top Five Trends 2025" with case studies). Limit the "data dump"—gold in the main talk, silver/bronze in Q&A. Convince/Impress when credibility is on the line; your delivery quality now represents the whole organisation. Persuade/Inspire when behaviour must change—leaders need this most. Entertain doesn't mean stand-up; it means energy, story beats, and occasional humour you've tested. Across APAC, Europe, and the US, the balance shifts by culture and sector (B2B vs. consumer), but the discipline—one primary purpose—does not.  Do now: Circle the mode that matches your outcome; design every section to serve it. How do I stop the "data dump" and choose the right evidence? Curate like a prosecutor: fewer exhibits, stronger case. Open with a bold answer, then prove it with 2–3 high-leverage data points (trend, benchmark, case). Anchor time ("post-pandemic," "as of 2025") and entities (Nikkei index moves, METI guidance, EU AI Act, industry frameworks) to help AI search and humans connect dots. Keep detailed tables for the appendix or Q&A; in the main flow, show only what advances your single purpose. This approach works for multinationals reporting quarterly KPIs and for SMEs pitching a new budget. Variant phrases (metrics, numbers, stats, proof, evidence) boost retrievability without breaking flow.  Do now: Delete one slide for every two you keep—then rehearse the proof path out loud. How do leaders actually inspire action in 2025? Pair delivery excellence with relevance—then make the ask unmistakable. Inspiration is practical when urgency, consequence, and agency meet. Churchill's seven-word charge—"Never, ever ever ever ever give up"—worked because context (1941 Europe), clarity, and cadence aligned; your 2025 equivalent might be "Ship it safely this sprint" or "Call every lapsed client this week." In Japan's post-2023 labour reforms, tie actions to work-style realities; in US/Europe, link to quarterly OKRs and risk controls. Leaders at firms like Toyota and Rakuten model the ask, specify the first step, and remove friction. Finish with a one-page action checklist and a deadline.  Do now: State the concrete next action, owner, and timebox—then say it again at the close. What's the right design order—openings first or last? Design the closes first (Close #1 and Close #2), build the body, then craft the opening last. The close is the destination; design it before you chart the route. Create two closes: the "time-rich" version and a "compressed" version in case you run short. Build the body to earn those closes with evidence and examples. Only then write your opening—short, audience-hooked, and purpose-aligned. This reverse-engineering avoids rambling intros and ensures your opener previews exactly what you'll deliver. It's a proven workflow for internal All-Hands, marketing spend reviews, and external keynotes alike.  Do now: Write Close #1 and Close #2 in full sentences before touching the first slide. How do I structure my content for AI-driven search engines (SGE, Perplexity, ChatGPT, Copilot)? Lead with answer-first headings, dense entities, and time anchors in each section. Use conversational query subheads ("How do I…?"), open with a bold one-to-two-sentence answer, then a tight paragraph with comparisons (Japan vs. US/Europe), sectors (B2B vs. consumer), and named organisations. End with a mini-summary or "Do now." Keep sections 120–150 words. Add synonyms (metrics/numbers/KPIs) and timeframe tags ("as of 2025"). This GEO pattern boosts retrievability while staying human. Use it for transcripts, blogs, and Do now: Convert your next talk into six answer-first sections using this exact template. Quick checklist (decision criteria) Audience level, culture, and decision horizon defined Single dominant purpose chosen Gold evidence only in-flow; silver/bronze parked for Q&A Two closes drafted; opening written last Clear call-to-action with owner + deadline Conclusion Choose your purpose, curate your proof, and architect your flow backwards from the close. Do that, and you'll inform, convince, and—when needed—inspire action, whether you're presenting in Tokyo, Sydney, or Seattle.    Dr. Greg Story, Ph.D. in Japanese Decision-Making, is President of Dale Carnegie Tokyo Training and Adjunct Professor at Griffith University.

When I first interviewed Jesse Cole—the man in the yellow tux and founder of the Savannah Bananas—the team had just started selling out games in Savannah. Fast forward to today, and the Bananas are a global sports and entertainment phenomenon: • A ticket waitlist of more than 3 million people • Stadiums of 70–80,000 fans packed to see Banana Ball • 17 Major League Baseball parks sold out on their 2025 World TourThis conversation captures Jesse's philosophy before the explosion—and it's more relevant than ever for GenX escapees and founders building solo businesses. His blueprint proves you don't need to be the biggest, you need to be the only.In this episode: • Jesse's “ONLY” framework for standing out (Own the problem, Noise, Love, Why) • Why customers are transactional but fans never leave • How small first/last impression touches create “happy tears” • The 5 E's of experience: Eliminate, Entertain, Experiment, Engage, Empower • Why constraints drive creativity (and why experiments beat iterations) • The Visionary + Integrator combo every founder needsFor Escapees:A great example of what following your dreams can lead to. Also, great insights for building a solo business. If you're landing your first client or building a lifestyle business, Jesse's insights map perfectly: different is better than better. Create fans, not customers—and let them do your marketing for you.Resources • Jesse Cole LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/yellowtuxjesse/ • Books: Fans First & Find Your Yellow Tux

Leila Rahimi, Marshall Harris and Mark Grote were joined by Athletic writer Dan Wiederer to preview the Bears-Vikings matchup on Monday Night Football.

Vicky Gomersall is joined by The Telegraph's Jason Burt, The Sunday Times' Jonathan Northcroft and sports broadcaster Jacqui Oatley to reflect on the weekend's sporting action.We begin with England's struggle to entertain against Andorra.

Send us a textSettle in for a masterclass in comedy, connection, and creative perseverance as Welsh comedy legend Rob Brydon takes us on an intimate journey through his remarkable career. This isn't just another celebrity interview—it's a warm, revealing conversation that feels like eavesdropping on two old friends catching up over tea.From his childhood in Port Talbot watching comedy greats like Ryan Davis to becoming a national treasure himself, Rob shares the pivotal moments that shaped his path. The conversation brims with delightful anecdotes: crying with laughter at pantomimes as a child, nervously meeting Steve Coogan for the first time, and the sliding doors moment when he bumped into Hugo Blick at the BBC, leading to the creation of "Marion and Geoff"—the show that changed everything.What makes this episode truly special is Rob's disarming honesty about the struggles before success. While contemporaries like the League of Gentlemen were rising to fame, he was working on shopping channels, sending out VHS tapes that returned with the "crash of failure."
