AI is reshaping jobs, workflows, and the way organizations operate. In this episode, Dean Newlund talks with Nadav Wilf, founder of ZeremAI, about how CEOs can build an AI strategy that drives business results.   In this episode, Dean Newlund and Nadav Wilf discuss: Where AI is changing jobs and responsibilities The three stages of AI use inside a business Turning AI productivity into deeper operational automation How different approaches to AI regulation affect innovation What AI companions could mean for human connection   Key Takeaways: Start with business needs and workflows when deciding where AI can create the most value. Move beyond basic prompting by progressing toward automated and AI native systems as your organization develops its capabilities. Look for entire responsibilities AI can take over rather than using it only to make existing tasks faster. Understand the tradeoffs behind AI regulation and how approaches in the United States, European Union, and China shape innovation, risk, and control. Be intentional about human relationships as AI companions become more common and consider how technology can support rather than replace human connection.   "AI is incredibly exciting. There's so much opportunity and things you can do, and there's a lot [you] can't do still, and it's about creating that relationship and finding that balance.” — Nadav Wilf   About Nadav Wilf: Nadav Wilf is an entrepreneur, investor, and the CEO of ZeremAI, a company at the forefront of AI implementation and systems automation. With a career spanning over two decades, Nadav is a three-time founder with multiple successful exits who has dedicated his life to understanding how technology can unlock human potential. Rather than viewing AI as a replacement for human talent, Nadav approaches it as a catalyst for a high-performance culture, helping organizations restructure their workflows to reclaim massive amounts of productive time. A dynamic speaker and strategic advisor, he speaks passionately about the transition into an AI-first economy, the rise of AI agents, and how leaders can navigate the massive cultural and operational shifts of the modern workplace.   Connect with Nadav Wilf:   Website: https://zerem.ai/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nadavwilf Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nadavwilf/       See Dean's TedTalk “Why Business Needs Intuition” here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EEq9IYvgV7I Connect with Dean:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgqRK8GC8jBIFYPmECUCMkwWebsite: https://www.mfileadership.com/The Mission Statement E-Newsletter: https://www.mfileadership.com/blog/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/deannewlund/X (Twitter): https://twitter.com/deannewlundFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/MissionFacilitators/Email: dean.newlund@mfileadership.comPhone: 1-800-926-7370 Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

In this episode, I share ten practical lessons from a recent Empire Group meeting, including how to find alternative financing, protect yourself during valuation and due diligence, stress test debt service, evaluate an unusually strong financial year, manage advisers, follow up professionally, and stop wasting time on problems you do not have yet. The central lesson is simple: remain persistent and flexible, but never abandon a disciplined acquisition process. To Your Success, Bruce

The AI gap will kill companies.What is it? it's the large divide between AI's crazy impressive capabilities and what most companies are actually using them for. And one of the biggest reasons for the AI gap? Talking. Like... no one understands how to talk about AI because the technology changes faster than Usain Bolt in Beijing. You wanna talk to your AI team about LLMs? PFT.

If you cannot answer why a customer should buy from you instead of your competitor, your sales strategy is failing.Many business owners think claiming they have great service or decades of experience is enough to secure a deal.

What can a hotel teach you about running your business? Turns out... A LOT. After spending the past month living out of hotels while traveling, I started noticing something. The businesses that earn five-star reviews aren't necessarily the fanciest. They're the ones that make people feel seen. So I took the Top 10 complaints hotel guests have and the Top 10 things they absolutely love...and connected every one of them back to leadership, customer experience, branding, and business. Because whether you're running a hotel, a law firm, a marketing agency, a manufacturing company, or a coffee shop... People remember how you make them feel.

Executive Summary In this episode, Kim Butler and Spencer Shaw continue their conversation on taxes, moving past the W2 versus self-employed comparison to cover two categories they hadn't yet addressed: business ownership and real estate investment. Kim walks through the progression from a simple Schedule C sole proprietorship to an LLC and eventually an S corp or C corp, explaining why any amount of 1099 income opens the door to valuable home office deductions. She then turns to real estate, pointing listeners toward bonus depreciation and cost segregation as free, learnable strategies that pay off well before a CPA ever gets involved. Kim and Spencer also get into the more advanced and higher-risk end of the tax strategy spectrum: oil and gas investments for accredited investors, along with lesser-known credits tied to motion pictures, Native American tribes, and solar. They discuss the Augusta Rule, what it actually takes to qualify as a real estate professional, and why Kim remains cautious about deductions built on real estate losses. The episode closes with a practical look at business entry points, including the role of the Kolbe profile in deciding whether a franchise, a purchased business, or staying W2 is the right fit. Throughout, Kim's message stays consistent: these strategies are valuable, legitimate, and worth learning, but they only work inside a foundation of emergency funds, opportunity funds, and guaranteed, boring money that's absolutely going to be there.

[00:01:00 - 00:02:00] Kim breaks down business structures, from Schedule C to LLC to S corp and C corp, and why 1099 income matters. [00:02:00 - 00:04:00] Kim points W2 earners toward real estate, starting with a single-family rental or Airbnb and a management company. [00:04:00 - 00:05:00] Kim explains why learning bonus depreciation and cost segregation costs nothing before you bring in a CPA. [00:05:00 - 00:06:00] Kim adds a third category for accredited investors: oil and gas, referencing Tom Wheelwright's book on the subject. [00:06:00 - 00:07:00] Spencer lists lesser-known accredited investor credits: motion picture, Native American tribe, tree carbon offset, and solar. [00:07:00 - 00:08:00] Spencer and Kim discuss why Tom Wheelwright built a casita, and how a real commute strengthens home office deductions. [00:08:00 - 00:09:00] Spencer introduces the Augusta Rule, renting a property to your own corporation for an annual meeting deduction. [00:09:00 - 00:11:00] Kim explains real estate professional status, the 750-hour requirement, and why it usually falls to a non-W2 spouse. [00:11:00 - 00:13:00] Kim cautions against chasing tax losses through real estate and shares the golf pros' limited partnership story from the 1970s.

[00:15:00 - 00:17:00] Kim lays out business entry points: Schedule C to LLC, the Kolbe profile, franchise fit, and following talents over passion.  

Find Your Leadership Confidence Podcast Episode Title: What is Corporate Credit and Why Every Business Needs It Episode Description What if your business could qualify for funding without putting your personal credit on the line? In this episode of the Find Your Leadership Confidence Podcast, host Vicki Noethling welcomes Sue Schuster, Corporate Credit and Profit Acceleration Coach, for an eye-opening conversation about one of the most overlooked business growth strategies—corporate credit. Drawing on more than 20 years of experience as a successful entrepreneur, Sue shares how building and selling her own business led her to discover the incredible power of corporate credit. She explains how entrepreneurs can establish business credit tied to their EIN, access funding without relying on personal guarantees, and create a stronger financial foundation for long-term growth. Throughout the conversation, Sue debunks common myths surrounding corporate credit, explains why having a relationship with your bank isn’t the same as building business credit, and discusses the ideal time to begin establishing your company’s financial profile. She also shares practical strategies for leveraging corporate credit to finance growth opportunities, improve cash flow, and even invest in real estate—all while protecting your personal credit. Whether you’re just starting your business or preparing to scale, this episode offers practical insights that can help you unlock new funding opportunities and build a more resilient company. Some questions discussed include: Sue’s entrepreneurial journey and transition into corporate credit coaching How previous business ownership prepared her for helping entrepreneurs today Common myths surrounding corporate credit Why every business should establish corporate credit—even if they already have a bank When is the right time to begin building business credit How to establish, grow, and use corporate credit strategically How investors can leverage corporate credit in real estate without relying solely on personal funds If you’re ready to build your business on a stronger financial foundation while protecting your personal assets, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.

What if your business doesn't need another strategy? What if it needs a stronger structure? In Part 3 of A Business That Makes Sense, Kehla G explores why so many entrepreneurs stay stuck—not because they lack ambition or discipline, but because they're trying to build on foundations they don't fully understand. Building on the first two episodes, Kehla introduces the three elements she believes every business owner needs to understand before adding more tactics, content, or offers: your constraint, your path, and your center. From there, she explains the four business foundations that create clarity, consistency, and sustainable momentum. In this episode, you'll learn: Why businesses are designed—not accidentally built. The difference between your business's constraint, path, and center. Why tactics don't solve structural problems. The four foundations every business needs to create consistent growth. How clarity leads to better decisions, stronger momentum, and greater self-trust. If you've been feeling like you're constantly rebuilding your business, chasing the next strategy, or wondering why nothing seems to stick, this episode will help you see your business through a completely different lens. Because a business that makes sense isn't built by adding more. It's built by understanding how every piece works together. In the final episode of this series, Kehla shares why she created Built to Hold, who it's designed for, and why she believes the future belongs to entrepreneurs who build businesses with intention instead of reaction.  

Not every business needs a complicated follow-up system—but every business does need the right follow-ups happening consistently. In this episode of Follow-Up Quick Tips, Sally shares the three essential follow-up stages every business should have in place: inquiry follow-ups, appointment follow-ups, and proposal or quote follow-ups, along with why consistency matters more than complexity. Learn how to create a simple follow-up process by deciding when each follow-up happens, who owns it, what the message says, and what to do if there's no response. Your quick action is to identify which of these three follow-up systems is least consistent in your business and improve that one first to stop opportunities slipping through the cracks.

Instead of discussing the latest AI trends, Donna and Aya focus on real business challenges: How busy professionals can start using AI today Why marketers are often the best people to lead AI adoption How to review AI-generated content before publishing it Why companies don't need dozens of AI tools How internal AI champions can help entire organizations learn faster Why understanding your business is more important than understanding AI Whether you work in manufacturing, industrial marketing, an association, or another B2B industry, you'll leave with practical ideas you can begin using immediately. At World Innovators, we believe AI should strengthen communication, support business strategy, and help companies build stronger relationships with their audiences. This conversation demonstrates exactly how thoughtful AI adoption can support those goals.

From mop buckets to million-dollar systems, we teach you how to clean smarter, lead stronger, and scale faster.At first glance, this episode is about comforters, duvets, quilts, and Airbnb bedding.But it quickly becomes something much bigger.After reading more than 70 comments in a Facebook discussion among short-term rental owners, Shannon realized the conversation wasn't really about bedding at all—it was about systems.Every business owner faces small operational decisions that quietly impact labor, training, inventory, customer experience, and profitability. Whether you're running a cleaning company, managing vacation rentals, or leading any small business, the question isn't which bedding system is best. The question is whether your systems are helping your business grow or holding it back.In this episode, Shannon shares practical insights on operational efficiency, scalability, training, and why successful business owners stop asking, "What do I like?" and start asking, "What scales?"If you've ever felt like your business is working harder than it should, this episode will challenge you to identify your own "comforter problem" and begin building systems that buy back your time.Related Episodes: • Episode 214 – Training Day One: What Should It Look Like?https://www.buzzsprout.com/2155653/episodes/17006680 • Episode 210 – Culture Starts at the Top (with Paul Germo)https://www.buzzsprout.com/2155653/episodes/16855068 • Episode 213 – Interview Red Flagshttps://www.buzzsprout.com/2155653/episodes/17005765If this episode brought you value, please consider following the podcast, leaving a review, and sharing it with another business owner.Those three simple actions help us reach more entrepreneurs who are working to build businesses—and lives—they actually want to participate in.  Support the showThanks for tuning in to Cleaning Business Life — the podcast for cleaning business owners who want to build a profitable, sustainable company without burning out.Hosted by Shannon Miller and Jamie Runco, each episode pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to start, grow, and scale a cleaning business — covering pricing, systems, leadership, boundaries, and the real conversations most people avoid.

Today's conversation is with Dylan King, founder of King AI and Automation. Dylan helps businesses in the UK identify and implement the AI systems that allow them to grow and scale effectively.Artificial Intelligence is moving at an incredible pace.Every week there's a new tool, a new model, or another headline claiming AI will change everything.The challenge for most business owners isn't whether AI matters. It's knowing what actually matters.In this conversation, Dylan cuts through the noise to explain which AI tools are genuinely worth your time, how to implement them into your business, and why AI should be viewed as a productivity multiplier rather than a replacement for your expertise.Expect to learn:Why Dylan recommends Claude over other AI platforms for most business ownersHow Claude Projects can become your AI-powered operating systemWhy one-off AI chats are limiting your productivityThe AI tools every business owner should know aboutWhy Fathom AI is transforming meetings and sales callsHow NotebookLM can become your personal learning assistantWhy Airtable is an ideal first CRM for growing businessesThe biggest mistakes people make when creating AI contentWhy your expertise should always come before AIThe security risks businesses need to understand before deploying AI publiclyWhere AI is heading and what it means for the future of businessIf you've been wondering how to actually use AI beyond writing emails or asking simple questions, this conversation will give you practical ideas you can implement immediately.Order your supplements from VitaMonth using CAMBRO for 50% off - https://vitamonth.ukMake Millionaire Money Moves - https://millionaire-fhcpmlvz.manus.spaceAudit your sales process in 4 minutes - https://colinsales-vygp2xak.manus.spaceGet my Linkedin for Sales Guide - https://colcambro.kit.com/products/linked-in-personal-brand-for-sellingConnect with Dylan:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dylan-king-ai/Website - https://www.kingaiandautomation.co.uk/ Connect with Col:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/col.cambro/Email List: https://colcambro.kit.com/30bde23b0cPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/ColCampbell

Every entrepreneur makes mistakes. I know I have. The difference between the businesses that survive and the ones that fail isn't who makes fewer mistakes—it's who owns them faster. In this episode of Fuel Your Drive, I'm sharing why refusing to take accountability is one of the biggest reasons businesses quietly fall apart. I'll walk you through real examples from my own journey, including lessons I've learned as a founder, CEO, and franchisor, and why I've found that speed, honesty, and ownership will always beat excuses. I'll also share a conversation I recently had with a franchise owner who completely changed the way he looked at a problem after one simple shift in mindset. In this episode, we'll cover: Why mistakes don't destroy businesses—denial does The hidden cost of waiting too long to fix a problem Why accountability builds trust with your team and customers How successful leaders respond when things go wrong The framework I use to identify mistakes, solve them quickly, and keep moving forward If you're building a business, leading a team, or chasing big goals, this episode is a reminder that your mistakes don't define you—but how you respond to them absolutely does.

Most business owners assume that when the time comes to sell their company, a buyer will be ready to write them a check. But many businesses never sell. Others sell for far less than the owner expected because the company was never built to operate without them. In this episode of the New Jersey Business Podcast, Paul and Vanessa Valverde sit down with Kevin Santana, a business broker at Mercato List, to discuss what really makes a business valuable, transferable, and attractive to buyers. Kevin explains why revenue alone does not determine what a company is worth and why buyers pay close attention to profitability, predictable cash flow, clean financial records, documented systems, customer concentration, team stability, and owner involvement. The conversation explores the most common mistakes business owners make before attempting to sell, including waiting too long to prepare, keeping disorganized financial records, failing to document processes, and building a company that depends entirely on the owner's knowledge, relationships, and daily involvement. Kevin also breaks down how business brokers help buyers and sellers navigate the transaction process, including valuation, confidentiality, buyer screening, negotiations, due diligence, financing, transition planning, and closing. For entrepreneurs interested in acquiring an existing company, Kevin shares what buyers should investigate before making an offer, which red flags can expose a bad deal, and why buying a profitable business can sometimes be faster than building one from the ground up. This episode is not only for business owners preparing to sell. It is about building a stronger company with better systems, clearer financials, a capable team, less owner dependency, and more options for the future. Because even if you never sell your business, building it as if someone could buy it will usually create more freedom, stability, and value.

Your bookkeeping may look organized, but are the numbers actually correct? In this episode, Tiffany explains why every business owner should reconcile bank and credit card accounts each month. You'll learn how reconciliation catches missing income, lost deductions, duplicate charges, fraud, and other costly errors. You'll also discover why accounting software cannot replace human review—and how bad bookkeeping can lead to the wrong tax bill, unreliable financial reports, and poor business decisions. This simple monthly finance routine can improve your accounting and bookkeeping, protect your tax preparation, and give you numbers you can trust. Do not wait until tax season to discover that your books are wrong. Listen now and learn how one monthly habit can protect your money and your business. NEXT STEPS

Most sales conversations have the right ingredients but the wrong sequence. In this episode, our host breaks down the four step sales flow that every business needs regardless of what you sell or who you sell it to. From earning the room in the first two minutes to closing the loop before the conversation ends, these four steps give every sales conversation a structure that moves people toward a decision without feeling scripted or forced. If your conversations feel good but your close rate does not reflect it, this episode is for you.

Most business owners judge marketing by the first sale. The best businesses measure it by the lifetime value of a customer.In this episode, I explain why marketing isn't an expense—it's an investment in acquiring profitable lifetime customers. We explore customer lifetime value,  cost per acquisition, retention, referrals, and the key numbers that turn marketing from guesswork into a predictable growth strategy.Once you know what a customer is truly worth, you'll stop asking, "How much should I spend on marketing?" and start asking, "How much can I profitably invest to acquire a customer?"If you want to make smarter marketing decisions and build a business that grows with confidence, this episode is for you.About Brad SugarsInternationally known as one of the most influential entrepreneurs, Brad Sugars is a bestselling author, keynote speaker, and the #1 business coach in the world.

After nearly 500 episodes, I've learned something that I wish more business owners understood before they ever launched a podcast. A podcast doesn't make you visible. It doesn't automatically position you as the go-to expert. What creates those results is knowing what you want to be known for and using your podcast to build trust, deepen relationships, and strengthen your authority over time. As I prepared for my milestone episode, I found myself reflecting on what nearly a decade behind the microphone has really taught me. Not about microphones, downloads, or editing software, but about what actually makes a business podcast become a valuable asset instead of another piece of content that's forgotten after it's published. In episode 499 of the Amplify Your Success podcast, I'm sharing the 10 biggest lessons I've learned about creating a podcast that supports your business, attracts the right opportunities, and becomes an extension of your authority. We'll talk about why purpose matters before you ever hit record, why trust is more valuable than downloads, what causes so many podcasts to fade away, and how to turn your podcast into one of the most powerful relationship-building tools in your business. If you've ever wondered whether your podcast is really working for you, or you're thinking about starting one, I hope these lessons help you approach it with greater clarity, intention, and a much longer view of what's possible.   Key Takeaways:  [00:04] Why your podcast isn't the growth strategy. Your authority is. [04:03] Lesson #1: Know exactly why you're creating your podcast before you ever hit record. [06:00] Lesson #2: Stop expecting your podcast to be a short-term lead machine and start treating it as a long-term authority asset. [09:39] Lesson #3: Why every successful business podcast needs a clear leadership voice and Lighthouse Message. [11:02] Lesson #4: The best podcasts aren't built around information. They're built around trust. [13:20] Lesson #5: How your podcast can become one of your most valuable collaboration assets. [15:04] Lesson #6: Why your podcast should become part of your invisible sales force. [17:49] Lesson #7: The real reason podcasters quit. It's usually a systems problem, not a motivation problem. [20:25] Lesson #8: How to integrate your podcast into your content ecosystem so every episode works harder for your business. [22:46] Lesson #9: Why choosing the right guests strengthens your authority and expands your reach. [26:01] Lesson #10: The metric that matters more than podcast downloads.   Resources Mentioned in This Episode:  Join me on Substack here to discover what's working now as our industry continues to evolve.

Photo by Michael Martine, South Yarmouth MA, July 2026 Published 13 July 2026 e561 with Michael, Andy and Michael – arial-aquatic robotic locomotion, Puffin wingspan, e-ink mini PDAs, maker marketplaces such as Tindie, Lectronz and SmallRun, custom vinyl, cooperative LLMs and a whole lot more! Michael, Andy and Michael get things started with a new robot that can fly and swim, and transition between the air and water on it's own.  This amazing feat was inspired by diving birds such as the puffin.  This story inspired the cohosts to consider the wingspan of the puffin, and while writing up the show notes, the Wingspan boarding game and the airborne velocity of the swallow. Switching to non-robotic tech, the team take a look at the PocketMage PDA, which then opens up a whole discussion on (dare we say vintage) other PDAs, and the maker culture of EMF Camp, where Andy is spending some time as discussed in e560.  Crowdsupply's Open Printer article primed the team for a number of favorite maker marketplaces which you can check out in the show notes below.  Examples like Tindie, Lectronz and SmallRun all get the benefit of the Games at Work bump.  And a google search turns up another SmallRun website that provides the service of creating custom vinyl for recordings, and inspires Andy on a potential gift. The team then looks at a couple of YouTube videos where a number of different LLMs are tasked to work collaboratively to play Pico Park.  You can see these below, and it is an intriguing way to consider how multiple autonomous agents may work together (or not) in other contexts.  In e173 in 2017, the cohosts discussed an example of two Google Homes talked to one another on Twitch. Rounding out the episode, there is an Inc article on what happened when the Starbucks app had a failure.  The behavior was very reminiscent of last week's discussion on Ian Bogost's new book, The Small Stuff.  The article concludes “Connivence creates its own fragility” – what an interesting turn of phrase.   Have you had an example of when convenience created fragility for you?  Have your bots

Most business owners say they want more revenue. And on the surface, that makes sense. More revenue feels like growth. It feels like success. It feels like freedom. But here's the truth: revenue and wealth are not the same thing. In this episode of It's Your Offer, I'm continuing the Summer Shorts Series — a collection of shorter, straight-to-the-point episodes designed to give you a quick shot of clarity, perspective, and momentum as you move through the summer season. And today, we're talking about one of the biggest misconceptions in business growth: the belief that more revenue automatically makes you wealthier. I have worked with hundreds of business owners making hundreds of thousands — even millions — of dollars who are stressed, overworked, underpaid, and completely chained to the business they built. They are generating revenue, but they are not creating wealth. They are making more money, but they are not necessarily keeping more money. And that distinction matters. In this episode, I'm breaking down why revenue alone can be misleading, where profit is often hiding inside your business, and why the fastest path to more wealth may not be adding something new — but uncovering the money already sitting inside what you've built. Because true wealth is not measured by how much money flows through your business. It is measured by what your business allows you to keep: your profit, your time, your energy, and ultimately, your life.

Every story needs a character on a journey to a transformation, but for businesses, Caleb Marsh says most storytellers get the order backwards. In this episode of Ideas & Impact, host Jeremy Jones talks with Caleb Marsh, founder and CEO of Red Legend, a business storytelling agency that helps companies use video for marketing, sales, and recruitment. Caleb opens with a definition that took him months to land on: a story is a character that goes on a journey and reaches a transformation. For a business, though, the transformation has to come first,  it's the value being exchanged for the customer's dollar, and the character and journey get reverse-engineered from there. From there, Caleb breaks down the three categories of stories every business can tell: stories about the company and its people, stories about the product (think "How It's Made," but for your business), and stories about the customer and their world. Most businesses only tell the third one, which leaves real opportunity on the table. The conversation moves into Caleb's four-part model of transformation,  internal (think and feel) and external (action and the state of the world), and how understanding which lever to pull turns storytelling from a nice-to-have into "an act of service." Caleb closes with practical, tactical advice on where video actually belongs: starting with a website video that can last three to five years, and expanding from there into TV, streaming, email, and social. Whether you're building out a marketing plan, trying to close more sales, or trying to attract and retain great people, this episode gives you a simple, repeatable framework for finding, and telling,  the stories your business already has.
