What if AI didn't just give you answers—but helped you understand how the best operators actually think?In this episode of Supra Insider, Marc Baselga and Ben Erez sit down with Casey Winters, former growth leader at Pinterest and Eventbrite, to unpack why he's building SuperMe, an AI-native professional network designed around perspective, not content or virality.Casey shares why meaningful expertise has disappeared from public platforms, how knowledge has moved into private networks, and why most AI tools miss the thing people actually want: judgment. The conversation explores how AI can responsibly capture a person's thinking from real artifacts (conversations, writing, podcasts), how trust and consent must be designed into these systems, and why scaling access to expertise doesn't mean replacing humans.They also dive into mentorship, career leverage, and why peer learning often matters more than traditional top-down advice. If you're a founder, operator, or product leader thinking deeply about AI, knowledge-sharing, and the future of professional networks, this episode offers a thoughtful and opinionated look at what comes next.Big thanks to Adam Fishman for introducing us to Casey!All episodes of the podcast are also available on Spotify, Apple and YouTube.New to the pod?

It is titled ‘Intelligent Warfare' an oxymoron in any language. In truth it is an account of British military failures through several colonial wars in which Kitson fought, including in Ireland. It is also a reflection of Kitson's enormous personal ego.Kitson came to prominence within the British military hierarchy in the 1950s during its efforts to crush the independence rebellion in Kenya. He established counter-gangs that tortured and killed Kenyan civilians. The groups were made up of British soldiers, including Kitson on occasion, and former members of those fighting against British rule. Tens of thousands of Kenyans ended up in over 150 detention camps where they were brutalized. An estimated 30,000 Kenyans were killed; one and a half million were interned; torture was commonplace and 1090 were hanged.While Kitson boasts of his role in the counter-gangs he ignores the human rights violations that underpinned British strategy in that African country.In 1970 he took command of the 39th Brigade – which covered Belfast and surrounding region. In the same year he published ‘Low Intensity Operations' which quickly became the standard text book for the British Army's counter-insurgency strategy in the following decades. A Raffle for Jim Fitzpatrick limited edition printThe Moore Street Preservation Trust is raffling our hugely popular Elizabeth O'Farrell print - a unique, framed print designed and signed by the renowned Irish artist Jim Fitzpatrick.

Military Spouse Entrepreneur Community Update: January Welcome to the AMSE monthly update! Join Moni, CEO and Founder of the Association of Military Spouse Entrepreneurs, as she shares everything happening this month inside the AMSE Circle—your verified community for military spouse business owners. In This Episode:

In this episode of Inside the Brand Experience, Invision's SVP of Marketing and host Laliv Hadar sits down with Jessie Young, Senior Brand Director at Eventbrite, to unpack the IRL renaissance reshaping how brands build community.Jessie shares what Eventbrite's data is revealing about the surge in in-person experiences—from phone-free gatherings to hyper-local gatherings—and why audiences are demanding more intimacy, belonging, and authenticity from events.You'll hear how brands can design experiences that prioritize connection over attendance, tap into local culture (yes, even cheese raves!), and use technology in a human-first way to fuel loyalty, advocacy, and movement-building. 

This episode unpacks how Eventbrite marketing and SEO can be used to grow a business and sell tickets through organic search. Favour Obasi-ike emphasizes that placing targeted keywords at the beginning of event titles is crucial for creating effective URL (uniform resource locators) slugs that rank well on search engines. To build trust and boost visibility, event organizers should also embed YouTube videos and utilize back-linking strategies within event descriptions. Real-world case studies discussed illustrate that scheduling events at least one month in advance allows search algorithms sufficient time to index the content and reach potential attendees. Even after an event concludes, Favour notes that active links continue to drive traffic, serving as a long-term asset for brand awareness. Ultimately, the source advocates for a data-driven approach that combines strategic messaging with technical SEO to ensure sustainable audience growth.Need to Book An Appointment?>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Book a Complimentary SEO Discovery Call with Favour Obasi-Ike⁠>> Visit Work and PLAY Entertainment website to learn about our digital marketing services>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our exclusive SEO Marketing community⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> Read SEO Articles>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to the We Don't PLAY Podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> Purchase Flaev Beatz Beats OnlineEpisode Timestamps[00:00:00] Introduction: Why Eventbrite is a Hidden SEO GoldmineThe episode begins by positioning Eventbrite as a critical platform for business marketing, lead generation, and product promotion, beyond mere event discovery. The emphasis is on creating every listing with the "searcher's benefit" in mind, focusing on how the event serves the needs of a potential attendee actively searching for a solution. This strategic mindset is the key to unlocking the platform's potential and leads directly into the most critical setup step for organic success.[00:05:30] The Single Most Important SEO Factor: Your Event TitleThe event title is presented as the most crucial element for SEO success because it directly generates the event's URL slug. Placing primary keywords at the beginning of the title ensures they appear at the start of the URL, dramatically improving visibility on Google and Eventbrite. Conversely, placing keywords at the end creates a less effective URL and weakens search ranking from the outset. Getting this step wrong can undermine the entire organic marketing effort.[00:12:15] The Long-Term Value of an Eventbrite ListingA unique feature of Eventbrite is that its event links remain active and discoverable long after an event ends. These expired listings function as permanent digital assets that continue to house links to websites, YouTube videos, and other resources. As such, an old event page acts as a long-term digital billboard, continuously driving traffic and brand visibility for months or years. This sets the stage for a practical case study.[00:17:45] Case Study 1: The Wreath-Making Workshop (A Paid Event Strategy)This case study demonstrates timing, targeting, and iterative improvement by combining organic SEO with minimal paid ads. A client's first workshop failed due to a two-week lead time, which was insufficient for search engine indexing. For the second attempt, strategic changes were made: scheduling four weeks in advance for algorithm indexing, creating a high-quality 4K promotional video, and running hyper-targeted Facebook ads with a $5/day test budget aimed at building community. The result was a sold-out event, providing a repeatable formula for marketing local, paid events.[00:31:00] Technical SEO Deep Dive: Why Your Website Pages Get De-IndexedThis section explains technical reasons for losing search ranking over time. Key factors include the "Last Modified" date in a website's XML sitemap, which signals content freshness to search engines; the 24-month lifespan of a blog post's SEO relevance if left untouched; and the actionable "update rule" of updating two old pages for every new one published. A contrast is drawn with podcast RSS feeds, which re-index the entire channel with each new episode, highlighting a unique SEO benefit of podcasting. This reinforces the importance of an updated digital presence to support event marketing.[00:48:15] Case Study 2: The Junk Journaling Workshop (A Free Event Strategy)This case study proves the core SEO principles work for a free event launched by a brand-new account with zero prior audience. The client created a new Eventbrite listing for a niche craft workshop with one month of lead time. Relying purely on organic discovery, all 10 free slots sold out to unknown attendees. The 10 conversions came from just 88 page views, indicating a highly effective, targeted listing. Page views continued to climb after sell-out, proving Eventbrite pages remain active SEO assets. The next step is community building.[00:55:30] The Post-Event Pivot: From Attendees to a CommunityThe conclusion shifts focus to the true metric of success: not just tickets sold, but building a returning community. The recommended strategy involves using a post-event QR code linked to a survey to gather feedback. For free events, this is a critical opportunity to ask attendees if they would return for a paid event, gauging future viability and gaining consent for upselling. This final step transforms a single event into a sustainable, community-driven business model.Memorable Quotes:"The fault begins with the message. And if the message is wrong, everybody is confused.""It's not about how many tickets were sold. It's how many people came, saw, went back, and came back again.""For every one page that you publish, update the last two that I just want to make it easy."Actionable Takeaways & Memorable QuotesTop 3 Actionable Takeaways:1. Prioritize Your Title: Always place your primary keywords (e.g., "Marketing Workshop," "Cooking Class") at the very beginning of your Eventbrite title to create an SEO-optimized URL slug.2. Respect the 3-Week Rule: Launch your event at least three to four weeks in advance. This gives search engine algorithms the necessary time to index your page and show it to relevant audiences organically.3. Plan the Post-Event Follow-Up: The event isn't over when it ends. Use a simple QR code survey to collect feedback and, for free events, to ask attendees if they would be willing to pay for a future version.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The QR Code Renaissance: Your Digital Lead MagnetQR codes have re-emerged as a low-cost, high-impact tool for local marketing, serving as a powerful bridge between physical customer presence and digital engagement. More than just a link, a strategic QR code acts as a direct gateway for lead capture, data collection, and relationship building, turning passing interest into a measurable interaction.[00:02:30] The Core Tactic: Creating and Deploying QR Codes Implementing a successful QR code strategy involves a few key steps:Generation: Use a dedicated tool like flowcode.com to create a custom QR code.Destination Strategy: Instead of linking to a generic homepage, direct users to a specific, high-intent page on your website. This could be a contact page, location page, a special offer landing page, or an email list signup form. The goal is to make the next step clear and valuable.Physical Placement: Maximize local visibility by placing the QR code on a variety of physical assets, including brick-and-mortar storefront windows, flyers, business cards, leaflets, and even in collaboration with other local businesses like restaurants.[00:07:15] Case Study: The Loungewear Brand A 2023 case study of a loungewear client at the Arendelle Mills Mall demonstrates the power of this tactic. During the Christmas season, the business used QR codes to promote a raffle for a family loungewear set. Shoppers scanned the code to enter, which successfully:Built their email list with qualified, local leads.Drove both in-store and online sales by creating a direct engagement point.The campaign successfully accelerated their online business by focusing on the core brand message of family bonding, turning a simple raffle into a meaningful touchpoint that resonated with their target audience.[00:13:45] Critical Best Practices To ensure your QR code campaign is effective and avoids costly mistakes, follow these essential practices:Incentivize the Scan: Offer a compelling reason for someone to pull out their phone. Frame it as a gateway to exclusive sales, monthly offers, or entry into a contest.Test Before You Print: Before investing in hundreds of flyers or stickers, thoroughly test the QR code with multiple people and different devices to ensure it scans correctly and links to the right destination.Track the Interaction: On your backend system, verify that a scan is being registered. This is crucial for measuring the campaign's effectiveness and understanding user engagement.This direct, one-to-one engagement tactic sets the stage for a broader, community-focused strategy: live events.2. Front-End Offers: Building Community with EventsA "front-end offer" in this context is less about an immediate transaction and more about securing a customer's commitment. Local events are the perfect vehicle for this strategy, providing a platform to foster deeper relationships, build brand loyalty, and create a powerful feedback loop that traditional digital marketing often misses.[00:15:30] Case Study: The Junk Journaling Business This case study follows a client with a purely traditional, offline business and zero website traffic. The strategy and results were transformative:Problem: The client had zero website traffic and was operating a purely traditional, offline business, making them invisible to online search and limiting their growth to in-person interactions.Solution: The host advised creating a free, local event on Eventbrite. The event listing was strategically optimized with local SEO keywords like "junk journaling classes near me" to capture search intent.Results: Within just seven days, the Eventbrite page received 88 views. More impressively, all 10 available slots for the event—still a month away—were completely filled, validating immediate local demand.[00:23:00] The Post-Event Flywheel The value of a local event extends far beyond the event itself, creating a self-perpetuating cycle of engagement and growth:Deep Connection: Events provide a rare opportunity to build genuine, personal relationships with customers in a face-to-face setting.Network Effect: The "10 people know 10 people" principle comes into play. A small group of engaged attendees can quickly become powerful brand advocates, driving exponential word-of-mouth marketing.Feedback Loop: By using a QR code at the event, you can direct attendees to a survey. This gathers invaluable feedback for improving future events and understanding customer needs.Validating Paid Offers: The post-event survey is the perfect place to gauge interest in future paid workshops or events, allowing you to de-risk future business decisions by confirming demand before investing resources.From building community in person, the conversation shifts to scaling that trust and authority to a much wider digital audience.3. Podcast Guesting: Scaling Trust and AuthorityPodcast guesting is a powerful and often underutilized local SEO and public relations (PR) strategy. It offers a unique dual benefit: it builds personal brand trust through the intimate and authentic medium of voice, while simultaneously generating a high volume of valuable digital assets in the form of backlinks.[00:28:45] The Backlink Multiplier Effect Being a guest on a podcast is a superior backlink strategy compared to a simple guest article. A single podcast appearance can result in dozens of high-quality backlinks as the episode is syndicated across numerous platforms like Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeartRadio, and Pandora. Each platform that lists the episode with your name and website in the show notes creates a new backlink, amplifying your SEO impact from a single effort.[00:33:10] Building Your "Listen Score" Platforms like listennotes.com (using "Listen Score") and Podchaser.com (using "Power Score") provide metrics that quantify both audience trust and algorithmic credibility. Consistently appearing on podcasts directly improves these scores. A higher score signals to algorithms that you are a credible and relevant authority in your field, enhancing your overall brand authority and searchability.[00:36:00] Finding Your Platform Finding the right podcasts to appear on is a straightforward process:Recommended Tool: Use a podcast discovery platform like ivy.fm.Process: Search for topics relevant to your business or expertise. The tool will generate a list of relevant shows. From there, you can identify their contact information and craft a pitch to appear as a guest expert.The host's prepared tactics are then reinforced and expanded upon by real-world experiences from other experts who joined the discussion.4. Expert Discussion: Real-World PR, SEO, and Video StrategyIn the final segment, marketing experts Marc, John, and Pierre join the host to share recent experiences and insights, adding another layer of practical validation to the episode's core themes of PR, local SEO, and modern content strategy.[00:45:00] Mark's PR Case Study: The Power of a Single Backlink Marc shared two recent PR wins that perfectly illustrate the difference between brand presence and direct SEO value. The comparison highlights that the quality and type of a link are far more critical than the length of the feature.[00:58:15] John's YouTube & Low-Ticket Offer Strategy John provided a distilled look at his current content and sales funnel strategy, emphasizing speed and efficiency:YouTube Content Mix: He recommends a strategic blend of 30% shorts for top-of-funnel branding and discovery, combined with 70% long-form video for deeper audience engagement and education.Shorts-to-Revenue Funnel: An effective modern funnel uses shorts for the initial "branding" function—getting people to say, "Oh, yeah, that's interesting"—before driving traffic directly to a low-ticket offer ($27-$47) on a checkout page. This bypasses complex sales pages for high-volume, low-friction conversions.GeoGrid Inaccuracy: John noted that traditional local SEO geogrid mapping tools are becoming inaccurate. He shared an example where a manual, localized search showed his client in the top 3 results, while the geogrid software reported a rank of 8. This discrepancy demonstrates the unreliability of the tools and reinforces the need for new tracking methods.John's strategy provides a digital, high-velocity parallel to Tactic #2's front-end offers, using short-form video to secure low-friction commitment and rapidly build a revenue-generating audience.This expert discussion underscores the episode's key principles, bringing the focus back to the tangible actions listeners can take.Resources MentionedQR Code Generation: flowcode.comEvent Management: EventbritePodcast Discovery: ivy.fmPodcast Metrics: listennotes.com, Podchaser.comPrivacy-Focused Analytics: Fathom AnalyticsMarketing Experts Referenced: Maria Wendt, Joel Irway, Daniel Priestley, Sean Cannell, Daryl EavesConclusion & Call to ActionThis episode delivers a clear and compelling message: success in local marketing hinges on practical, strategic action. The tactics discussed—from QR codes and community events to podcasting and savvy PR—are not just theoretical concepts but proven methods for building visibility, trust, and revenue.

A five-hour flight talk, a dare to build something new, and the belief that R&B can still make a whole room sing—this is how Laid Back came to life. We kick off the year with DJ Hapa Boy to trace the journey from a chance question at lunch to a full-fledged R&B day party crafted with intention and island flavor. No filler, no gimmicks—just great DJs, careful curation, and hospitality that makes people feel invited, not processed.We dig into the blueprint: assembling the team, locking the name, shaping the brand, and sweating the small details that turn an event into an experience. From flower leis at the door to Noms, we bring back the lost art of promotion by caring more than the flyer. Hapa Boy opens the crate on craft too—why reading the room beats pre-planning, how multiple record pools keep sets fresh, what gear fits which stage, and how sobriety sharpened focus, transitions, and crowd engagement. We talk island culture with pride: the right local track at the right moment, a room bursting into song, and the joy of seeing new DJs get their first real stage.The heart of this episode is connection. R&B as a bridge across generations, families showing up and singing together, and the way intention changes everything—from how you treat people to how you build a brand that lasts. If you care about music scenes, event design, and the craft of DJing, this one gives you playbook and purpose in the same breath.Grab your tickets to Laid Back: Sunday, January 18, 3–8 p.m. at Capitol Modern. Hit laidbackrnb.com or Eventbrite and come sing with us. If you enjoy the show, follow, rate, and share—then tell us the one R&B song you need to hear next time.

In Episode 260, Christine Tulley, President and Executive Writing Coach at Defend, Publish & Lead, emphasizes the importance of celebrating writing wins as the holiday season approaches, arguing that CVs often function more as stress-inducing evaluation documents than celebratory records of accomplishments.  She demonstrates her approach using Penzu (a free digital writing journal that she loves but is not a sponsor), walking through how she reviews her Fall 2025 Semester Writing Project Mix to assess what she actually completed—discovering she finished 3 out of 4 planned projects, including two chapters of her sabbatical book and presentation slides, while her "yucky writing project" remained incomplete. She highlights unexpected wins like her Inside Higher Ed article on who owns faculty writing (co-written with Jennifer Ahern-Dodson) that she had forgotten about from her Summer 2025 plans, reframes the 3 out of 4 completion rate as a success focused on movement and completion rather than perfection, and encourages listeners to celebrate broader wins beyond publications (such as consistently hitting 8 hours of writing per week) while using this reflection to inform planning for 2026.  She concludes by mentioning her coaching services and the resources available through podcast sponsor Textbook and Academic Authors Association.

In this episode we interview Mark Aldrich about his new book, The Rise and Fall of King Coal: American Energy Transitions in an Age of Markets, 1800-1940. From the publisher: “A history of the dynamic role of coal in the energy landscape of the United States during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. In The Rise and Fall of King Coal, Mark Aldrich explores the pivotal role of coal in the historical energy landscape of the United States. Meticulously researched and clearly written, this analysis of the rise, dominance, and eventual decline of coal as a primary fuel source traces its evolution from the late eighteenth century to the mid-twentieth century.  Aldrich explains the factors that contributed to coal's ascendancy and decline, including efficiency, marketing, and the technological advancements that facilitated both its widespread adoption and later languishing. A complex interplay among market forces, government policies, and societal attitudes profoundly shaped the coal industry's trajectory. Challenges and controversies have surrounded the production of coal since its inception, including labor issues, environmental concerns, and resource scarcity. Aldrich's comprehensive approach—which combines historical analysis, economic perspectives, and a deep appreciation for the technological and scientific advancements that transformed the energy landscape—also emphasizes the role of innovation and entrepreneurship in driving energy transitions.  By providing a bottom-up history that underscores the pivotal role of individual choices and market dynamics, The Rise and Fall of King Coal offers valuable insights into the dynamic nature of energy transitions. In lively discussions of domestic cooking and heating, Aldrich emphasizes the importance of women in shaping households' energy choices, and he gives voice to individual women and men as they describe how these decisions raised their standard of living. This book represents a seminal contribution to the field of energy history and highlights the complex interplay of factors that have shaped the evolution of energy use in the United States.” To make a donation underwriting this program and others like it please visit our Eventbrite page: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/underwriting-donation-tickets-1470779985529?aff=oddtdtcreator.

In Episode 259, Christine Tulley, President and Executive Writing Coach of Defend Publish & Lead, addresses the common question of when to start writing after the holiday break, emphasizing the importance of making this decision ahead of time rather than letting it remain nebulous as the calendar year flips. She shares her personal approach of designating January 5th as her first official day back to writing (separate from her first day of class), blocking out specific time slots in her calendar (9:00-11:30 AM on January 5th, 6th, and 7th for a total of seven and a half hours that week), and color-coding this time as brown to protect it from competing demands. She recommends preparing for this first writing day by treating it like the first day of school—cleaning out your laptop bag, restocking essential supplies like hard drive connector cords and extra headphones, gathering any articles you'll need, and perhaps choosing a favorite coffee shop instead of the library. Christine emphasizes that setting up special elements for your first writing session can infuse it with new energy, mentions her holiday playlist of writing episodes, and concludes by offering a free Textbook and Academic Authors Association membership giveaway to the first person who emails her at christine@defendpublishlead.com along with her coaching practice's ongoing holiday pricing special.

The event takes place Friday, October 24, from 7:00 to 10:30 p.m. at the International Banquet & Conference Center in downtown Detroit, promising a stylish evening of music, fine dining, and nostalgia. Headlining the evening is renowned vocalist Mark Randisi, whose voice captures the essence of Sinatra so authentically that even Andrea Bocelli mistook him for “Ol' Blue Eyes” himself. Joining Randisi are Detroit jazz greats Paul King, Cary Kocher, and Paul Keller, each bringing their own signature flair and deep musical roots to the stage. The performance will transport guests to the swingin' 60s, where Sinatra ruled the Vegas Strip and every note told a story. From soulful ballads to toe-tapping big band favorites, Strictly Sinatra offers more than a concert—it's a full-sensory experience that blends Detroit's love of live music with the timeless sophistication of Sinatra's sound. Tickets start at $55.20 and can be purchased through Eventbrite. Dress to impress, enjoy the atmosphere, and let the music carry you back to the Rat Pack era.

Ginseng is the “emperor of plants,” celebrated in traditional Chinese medicine as a sovereign remedy for diverse ailments and promoter of longevity. The introduction of American ginseng to the Chinese market in the late-eighteenth century found a vast market of eager consumers. In her dissertation project, Audrey Ke Zhao, PhD candidate at the University of California – Santa Cruz, is exploring the history of American ginseng in China. Using multiple collections held in the Hagley Library, such as the Lanman & Kemp drug company records, Zhao uncovers the development of an American export industry in ginseng with global connections and an orientation to the Chinese market. Ginseng imported through Canton challenged the imperial monopoly on the coveted commodity, triggering changes across the political economy of China. In support of her work, Zhao received funding from the Center for the History of Business, Technology, and Society at the Hagley Museum and Library.

What if the most dreaded part of your customer's journey: the return, was actually your biggest untapped opportunity for growth?Agility requires brands to re-examine every part of the customer journey, especially the challenging post-purchase phase, and find hidden opportunities to adapt and strengthen customer relationships. It demands we turn operational liabilities into strategic assets. Today, we're going to talk about something that many retailers see as a pure cost center: customer returns. Instead, we'll explore how a smart, data-driven post-purchase strategy can actually become a powerful engine for customer retention and lifetime value. We'll look at the data trends shaping retail, how to navigate the complex pressures on merchants today, and why this often-overlooked part of the business might be the key to unlocking future growth. Joining me to discuss this is Laura Huddle, CRO at Seel. This show is sponsored by Seel, the AI-powered post-purchase platform that helps retailers turn returns into revenue while giving shoppers a more seamless, trusted experience.
