On the other side, you have a media company that may eventually launch a product years later.As eCommerce and brand launches continue to evolve, the line between media and commerce is blending.The brands that now launch with an established audience can acquire customers for less and have higher lifetime value.By leaning into audience growth first, you can build a more sustainable business.Stay tuned as we discuss the five different versions of DTC launch strategies, what is the best strategy you can take for your brand, and some ideas to build your audience first.If you’d like to learn more about Trend and our influencer marketing platform for influencers and brands visit trend.io.

In this week's episode, we're talking about the success of Disney+ and how it shouldn’t be compared to Netflix, we touch on the importance of understanding insentives in business models as we compare Wikipedia to Twitter and Facebook and we do a Hot or Not comparison of popular WFH narratives.If you’re at all interested in media and the future of Disney, I highly recommend you tune into this episode.Listen on Apple, Spotify, or Google Podcasts.If you aren’t in the Reformed Millennials Facebook Group join us for daily updates, discussions, and deep dives into the investable trends Millennials should be paying attention to.👉 For specific investment questions or advice contact Joel @ Gold Investment Management.🚨STREAMING WARS🚨Disney wants Netflix ValuationsSuspended Dividend for first half of year and stock has gone up and the company has made a restructuring call.Content and distribution is kingWhile obviously Disney+ will compete with Netflix for consumer attention, the goals of the two services are very different: for Netflix, streaming is its entire business, the sole driver of revenue and profit. Disney, meanwhile, obviously plans for Disney+ to be profitable — the company projects that the service will achieve profitability in 2024, and that includes transfer payments to Disney’s studios — but the larger project is Disney itself.By controlling distribution of its content and going direct-to-consumer, Disney can deepen its already strong connections with customers in a way that benefits all parts of the business: movies can beget original content on Disney+ which begets new attractions at theme parks which begets merchandising opportunities which begets new movies, all building on each other like a cinematic universe in real life. Indeed, it is a testament to just how lucrative the traditional TV model is that it took so long for Disney to shift to this approach: it is a far better fit for their business in the long run than simply spreading content around to the highest bidder.Disney ($DIS) Vs. Aggregators (Netflix, Hulu, HBO, Crave)Disney just announced that its next Pixar file, Soul will be released exclusively on Disney Plus which is setting up to be one of the most idealized pieces of Disney content ever.I’m not referring to the actual movie but how Disney is poised to make money from Soul:Disney will earn money from Disney+ subscribers, and keep 100% of the margin.Disney will create Soulderived merchandise, much of which it will sell through its stores and at its theme parks, and keep 100% of the margin.Disney will create Soulderived features at those theme parks, most of which it fully owns-and-operates, and keep 100% of the margin.At every transaction along the way, Disney will build an ever fuller picture of its customers. Disney, as always, will be selling Disney — it is just getting better and better at it as it more fully integrates its entire value chain.The Disney platform Flywheel is officially spinning - and its stock is cheap.Disney+ has been a rare bright spot for Disney during the COVID pandemic, as so many other parts of the company, from cruise ships to theme parks to sports are predicated on in-person interactions. That Disney+ existed, though, was not simply good fortune: it has been clear that the world was headed this way for years — the primary function of the coronavirus crisis has been to accelerate trends that already underway — which is why Disney had no choice but to get into streaming.Pixar's 'Soul' Skips Theaters for Disney PlusWalt Disney Napkin🐣Airbnb IPO🐥IPO Fever continues as we wait for the much anticipated Airbnb S-1Some figures to consider regarding the Airbnb IPOWhen Airbnb goes public, it's going to immediately become the number 1 brand in hospitality. When I think of hospitality I think of Marriott, Hilton, or Fairmont. But today, if you asked 100 people on the street, when they think about a vacation they think of Airbnb and that is powerful. Luxury hotels aren't doable for families with a net worth sub 10 million.Airbnb has global supply, boasting more than 7 million listings worldwide — more than Marriott International, Hilton Worldwide, InterContinental Hotels Group, Wyndham Hotel Group, and Hyatt Hotels, combinedMore people want to cook themselves and travel affordably.Airbnb has no mortgages like a marriot or a hilton. Which doesn't allow them to variable their costs down to make investments in technology.Airbnb offloads the massive debt obligation of debt to their operators in the same way Uber does. The only negative things they are dealing with are around taxes, and ruining travel cities and neighborhoods.Benchmark for comparable which I heard from Scott Galloway is visa and Mastercard.This suggests that Airbnb could easily sport a valuation of 15-25 times next year’s revenues: 90-150 billion. The last round of funding was done at 15b mid pandemic.📃WFH Twitter Thread💻🏠🌍 Not Happening:🚜Rural Living: World-class people will move to smaller cities, have a lower cost of living & higher quality of lifeThese regions must innovate quickly to attract that wealth.

Twitter’s plan appears to be watching posts with rising levels of inorganic engagement like a hawk, flash-checking their veracity, and taking them down ASAP, with a lot of manual intervention. Twitter has been dealing with some backlash of late with its algorithm for photo cropping accused of bias against people of color and plans to reduce its reliance on ML tools. At the same time, there are very serious concerns of deepfakes spreading unchecked on Twitter, including this very creepy one where a victim of the Parkland school shooting was re-animated (with his parent’s permission) to implore folks to vote in this election.BuiltIn: The Internet Should Be More Like Wikipedia This article dives into the reasons that make Wikipedia a trusted arbiter of truth on the Internet, even as it approaches 20 years of existence. How did this happen? The author offers 3 reasons:Peer production over ad- and engagement maximization.Robust editorial oversight.No reliance on personalization or amplification algorithms.Wikipedia is the “last best place on the Internet”. So why does it still beg you to donate money every so often? Our society places a monetary value on engagement and personalization which, in turn, drives misinformation and filter bubbles. Even so, there are some serious inequity issues surrounding Wikipedia articles.AI is still used to spot and alert editors to digital vandalism. Another NLP algorithm, Quicksilver is used to identify notable people who have missing Wikipedia entries. Get on the email list at www.reformedmillennials.com

To invest – or to grow wealth – or to build anything for that matter, you need to get the foundations down right – otherwise whatever you build may need to be torn down. One of the foundations we all need to sort out, and to check periodically, is our own personal financial management skills – this is where we need to delve into the topic of personal finance or money management.If you're self-employed, please check out the other episodes:Wealth -building when you're self-employedFinancial exclusion and the independent earnerMainstream thought around personal finance could somewhat be summed up as follows:- Save yourself wealthy- Aim for 'rich enough'- Don't pursue wealth as much as keeping to your budget.What I’ve observed in my life and especially in the lives of those I work with who’ve done well with money, is that if you want to move to a place above average, shrinking back is not the best strategy – taking ground is. Often the strategy to 'take ground' can be messy, contrarian, and personal to you . This is something that's hard to cover in detail to any great extent, but it's important to try and not shrink back from the topic, so as to not offend those easily offended.In this episode, I aim to offend members of the cult of frugality, those who strive to repay their mortgage, everyone with a side hustle that involves making jam, and everyone not named Sue. We're covering principles like:Getting a real jobStarting at the endPaying yourself firstThe magical power of giving and receivingGood debt vs bad debtThe magical power of wordsGood buffers, bad buffers, and other peoples' buffersBeing accountableGetting into obscene levels of debt, as fast as you can.Most of what I say you can take seriously in this episode, but some of it is simply to annoy those who take themselves too seriously - hope you enjoy!PS: You may have also noticed, I didn't include 'budgeting' in this episode. Budgeting IS actually very important, but apparently not so important to include here - I promise to cover this somewhat 'sexy' topic in future episodes!____________________________________Like what you’ve heard?You can really help with the success of the NZ Everyday Investor by doing the following:1- Tell your friends!2- Write a review on Facebook, or your favourite podcast player3- Help support the mission of our show on Patreon by contributing here4- To catch the live episodes, please ensure you have subscribed to us on Youtube: 5- Sign up to our newsletter hereNZ Everyday Investor is on a mission to increase financial literacy and make investing more accessible for the everyday person!Please ensure that you act independently from any of the content provided in these episodes - it should not be considered personalised financial advice for you.

Think 10x rather than 2x for more farm profits.IntroductionLike, rate, review, shareAnswer questionsFarm4profitllc@gmail.com@farm4profitllcWhat’s working for Ag – listener or farmer feedbackUsing social media-long distance connections to help with repairs, parts searches, business advice, etc……Introduce Guest-------Chad HutsonOwner of HT Plumbing. Locally-owned and operated since 2003, HT Plumbing has been providing residents and businesses in Ames, Huxley, and the surrounding areas with quality plumbing installation, repairs and servicing for years.We’re excited to have Chad here to talk with us about the growth mentality with his leadership experience and insight from the Goldman Sachs of the second Iowa class of Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses. He was one of 36 scholars from across the state to complete the program.What’s been working in Chad’s business?Our main topic for the day is creating the growth mindset! It’s a lot easier to think 10x vs 2x when thinking about growth and progressHeads will shake and you might think about turning this episode off, but wait….. This is a mindset that has proven to work and create laser like focus on growing your farm’s or business profitability.Reaching for 10x rather than 2x Immediately has an impact on YOUR Thinking After seriously engaging in a growth goal of 10x and its locked in your brainBrain gets locked in on a goal and visual thenIntellectual engagementEmotional CommitmentYou will need to hurdle the previous beliefs……if you think it’s hard that is the first thing that needs to changeChallenge those beliefs and grow/develop new onesAbility to InnovateDecision MakingHow quickly they are madeClarity of thinkingCommunication How we talk to othersWho we talk toEfficiency of conversationActionsLet go of stuff, tasks, roadblocksBefore you make/believe a goal or target; Your mind is on “everything” and everything else, but once you make the 10x commitment your brain begins to filter everything you do and think about through that goal.Does this belong on the path to the goal?Yes, move forwardNo, dismiss Totally/CompletelyStop doing the task, action, chore, etc….Trash the idea or connectionTask to othersDelegation to othersOutsourcing to a 3rd partyExercise to help you thinking about this…..Stop now and begin looking around the room and look for something blue, now close your eyes and tell us what you saw that was red.Brain doesn’t see the red……brain filters it outThink back to sitting in a Movie Theater, were you engrossed in the movie and you don’t notice the squeaky seats or chomping popcorn? Or as soon as you heard the chewing it was all you could focus in on and it’s all you heard?Thinking 10x and focusing on the 10x goal turns your brain in to that filter and you begin to see the things that are getting in your way.You have to have commitment from yourself firstThe plan has to start in your brainYou have to believe itThen make its way to paperThen it gets shared with people you trustThen you can put it into action.Have an advisory team surrounding you to hold you to your goals and steps along the process.10x Mindset makes youHave a total different way of looking at the worldForces you to connect all of the resources you have togetherEfficiencyNetworkMoneyYou must break even at best to grow….have to farm for profitYou must be open mindedYou won’t be able to get there on your own. Your way of treating and engaging people will changed by necessity. Relying on advisorsRelying on employeesRelying on creditWhen making purchases and sales you now have a clear vision Focused in on whether this decision willHelp me get to 10xPrevent me or prolong me from getting to 10xNo longer trying to sell the whole market place and your results focused decision makingUnderstanding LeverageLess is moreDoing more with less of your effortTractors, pulley, etc….Use leverage for moneyBorrowing from banksBorrowing from an investorBorrowing from the governmentA clear vision with well written plan will make seeking the funds easierUse this for other peopleCleaning the shedsChoresMechanicsUsing their knowledge and expertiseGuest Question: What are ways that you can discover the talents of the people that you have working for you?Using systemsRoutine tasksAccounting, HR, Chores, MaintenanceMarketingSalesCreate a methodPurchasingRequests for Proposals (RFP)SummaryIt all starts with you and your mindset. Think about what 10x looks like to you and put a plan together. Once you have a clear goal and commitment to yourself the decision making process becomes clearer. Will this help me reach my goal or will it set me back. You must start by breaking even, but ultimately generating a profit is a must to get to 10x. Once you’re in the 10x mindset begin to leverage the resources that you have to reach your goal.ChallengeChallenge is to think about what 10x means to you and your farm or business. Do you want 10 times the number of livestock, number of acres, amount of net income, free time, etc….. Then continue by writing it down. It will evolve, but that is part of figuring it out!RemindersRate, Like, Review, Share – this one especially because it’s for more than just farmersSend us your topic ideas and discussionsFarm4profitllc@gmail.com
Since our text begins with a quote from Psalm 95, let’s go there firstThe psalm begins with a call to worshipOh come, let us sing to the LORD;let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation!Let us come into his presence with thanksgiving;let us make a joyful noise to him with songs of praise! (Ps. 95:1-2)Next, the psalm tells us why we worshipFor the LORD is a great God,and a great King above all gods.In his hand are the depths of the earth;the heights of the mountains are his also.The sea is his, for he made it,and his hands formed the dry land (Ps. 95:3-5)

In this episode, Alisha interviews Andra West LeBauer on self-care, Mindfulness and learning to express boundaries.Check out the website for this show to access the mediation Andra made for us to go along with this show. Episode 29 Notes:Sponsor: Triad Local FirstJoin us in our Yoke and Abundance Facebook Group ->Here are some of the topics we touch on in this episode. Notes:Mindful life coachBoundaries coachHelping women have deep meaningful relationships around deep meaningful relationships and self care. Self-care beyond the bubble Bath: Put an hour of time on your calendar that’s not scheduled. Take a napSelf-care is understanding what your needs are and doing practices that help you get in touch with what your needs are. The pace of life is breakneck. You have to be mindful to not work and take time to do nothingI get to choose myself firstThe unplug box: Take your deceives, put them in the box and set them aside. Choose not to check messages and facebook. Prioritize being a present person for the people in your life. If we don’t advocate for space and presence with our loved ones it will pull us in. A lot of us don’t know what our boundaries are. You can express boundaries in a loving and compassionate way. The Universe puts the work in front of usHow do we express what we know out into the world. What’s in the way, is the way. Empaths don’t always say what they need to say. In expressing options there are a couple options 1st: You do nothing 2nd: Passive aggressive boundary 3rd: reactive boundary 4th: Proactive boundary when we are able to say ahead of time, this is important to me, or this is coming up for me. When you have a person you don’t have a loving friendship with that you don’t like or get along with, what do you do if they are pushing your buttons? The person becomes the path. An opportunity to practice. You can let other people see you exactly as you are, and those that are meant to be a part of your path will stay. You can’t live your life hoping to please everyone and hoping that everyone is going to like you. Let people say what they need to say even if it’s wrong. Let people be who they are, and be who you areRemember to start over every morning.Don’t be somewhere else when your life is happening.

Let's get into it straight away.Hi, Forex traders. Andrew Mitchem here, the owner of The Forex Trading Coach. Today is video and podcast number 210.My 7 top tips to be a successful Forex traderAnd this is a really, really important lesson for you to get, and to understand, and to implement in your trading. I'm going to give you my 7 top tips to be a successful Forex trader so let's get into it, shall we?#1 – You must have a passion for trading ForexNumber one, you must regardless of all other things, you have to have a love of trading, a passion for it. I'd be trading for 13 years. I still have passion for it. Every morning I wake up, I want to go and have a look at my charts, see how the trades are going. A lot of people after that length of time in anything get quite bored. You see, most people of course get to Friday night, they can't wait for the weekend to come. For me, it's the opposite. I can't wait for Monday and the charts to open, the markets to open again so I can get trading again. You got to have a passion for it. There's no good in even if you're making money out of your trading if you hate doing it or you're really bored by it. You got to have a passion. It's a really important point number one regardless of what you do in life. Enjoy it and have a passion.#2 – You must have a strategy that works for youNumber two, you have to of course have a strategy that works for you, something that suits you. It doesn't matter whether you're a technical trader, or a fundamental trader, or a combination of both. Whatever it is, have something that works for you, something that doesn't take all day and night to do. What's the point in having a really good system that's making you a lot of money but you're sitting there for 12, 14 hours a day glued to your charts? That's just no fun at all. Life is far too important and you need to have too much … You should be having lots of fun and not spending too much time at your charts. For me, it's important to have something that I can trade for only a short amount of time per day but does very, very well, and I think that's important for longevity and enjoyment out of your trading. Make sure you find out what works for you, what suits your style and your personality as a person and as a trader.#3 – A low risk money management trading approachThe third thing you need to use and to understand correctly is a low risk money management approach. You see, you can have the best trading system on the planet but if you don't have low risk in your approach and high rewards risk trades, then what you generally do is lose money. You can have a 90% winning system but still lose money. You can also get heavily influenced by emotions, and greed, and fear, et cetera if you're risking too much on a trade. That takes you away from your trading plan. Keep your risk really low for trade. I suggest no more than half of 1% the trade.#4 – Learn how to trade firstThe fourth thing.
