It's an all new That Real Blind Tech Show and since we have a new intro for our show we got the entire gang here of Allison, Brian, David, Ed, and Jeanine.       We kick the show off discussing a Little Rock and roll and Billy Idol of all things. Which then leads to our first That Real Blind Tech show firing in quite awhile.   Brian discusses seeing Bruce Springsteen at Madison Square Garden. And the talk of the Boss then leads to us discussing our new theme song.   Eventually we get in to the news with a story for the ages as a beloved Walrus Penis Bone has gone missing from a bar in South Jersey. And we finally have an answer to the age old question, is it safe to use a laptop on your lap?        Will Privacy workers ruin Smart Glasses for people with disabilities?   Boston Logan Airport is launching a pilot  program of people getting to the airport 25 miles away and going through TSA there, what could go wrong with this?   We then discuss #GAAD and what has it accomplished over the past 15 years. Ed discusses the #GAAD event he participated in with Meta Labs.   In recognition of #GAAD Apple unveiled the new accessibility features coming in the next operating system.   We then touch on all the sink holes popping up in New York City.   We then dive in to Google Io, and start out discussing Vibe Coding apps and will this lead to further inaccessibility.   Google has multiple pairs of Glasses coming later this year, the first pair we discuss is the Project Aura Glasses which are more VR glasses.   Google will also be releasing an Audio only Gemini Glasses, but do not call them Glasses, they are Intelligent Eyewear.   Get ready to do everything in Google in the search box.   Google Gemini Agents will become more personalized.   At the end of the day all of these A.I. features and the usability of it all will come down to two things, the accessibility of it all, and more importantly, will you actually trust using it.   We then dive in to some new products we have gotten recently. Brian kicks it off discussing the DOT digital Business Card which you can buy on amazon. Brian then mentions he bought the Anker Soundcore Liberty 5 Pro Buds that just were released on May 21st, however, as they did not arrive until after we recorded, and the app and touch screen have several accessibility issues. The app and touch screen are pretty much unusable by someone who is blind. We will discuss this further on our next show. David then discusses the Pocket A.I. Recorder he just ordered. And while it is not a typical Allison return, she is gifting her current Mac Book Air and replacing it with the latest Mac Book Pro. Jeanine then discusses the Hapware Band she has ordered, so expect a lot of product discussions on the next few shows as we receive these products.   And it's more of What's Pissing Off Brian Now and Watcha Streaming, Watcha Reading.   To contact That Real Blind Tech Show, you can email us at ThatRealBlindTechShow@gmail.com, join our Facebook Group That Real Blind Tech Show, join us on the Twitter @BlindTechShow 

We would love to hear from you! Text "BBMFAM" to (312) 300-1300.A website can look perfect and still do nothing for your business. That's the problem we dig into with Lenora Blackamore, CEO of Mecca Marketing Group Incorporated, a Black-owned marketing and web development firm with deep roots in digital technology going back to the 1990s. We talk about what separates a site that simply exists from an online presence that actually drives leads, sales, and long-term growth.We get practical about the modern small business tech stack: why a CRM matters, how Go High Level can replace a pile of disconnected subscriptions, and where AI fits when you want speed without losing strategy. Lenora explains her real process, from one-on-one discovery and website audits to building a stronger foundation that can scale. We also get into content management, why “content is currency,” and how storing and organizing your assets saves you time and keeps your marketing consistent.Then we widen the lens to community impact. We share thoughts on social media marketing, why it's still powerful, and why kids under 15 or 16 shouldn't be navigating that world unchecked. We talk mentorship, tech exposure in schools, and what it takes to keep our communities growing. Lenora also reflects on working at Johnson Publishing Company and what Ebony's digital pivot teaches every entrepreneur about innovation and leadership.If you're building a Black-owned business, growing a brand, or trying to modernize your marketing systems, this one is for you.

#realconversations #soundeditor #USCFilmSchool #horror #GSFF#Emmy #LowVision #director CONVERSATIONS WITH CALVIN — WE THE SPECIESHosted by Calvin SchwartzMeet PATRICK HOGAN. “Since I've been interviewing for the Garden State Film Festival, Ifigured using a film motif for my comments. My interview with Patrick Hogan is‘Back to School.' The time with Patrick was a special learning experience. Hisfilm, ‘Blindsided,' is horror, sensory storytelling, fear, empathy, and craftat the highest level. Patrick is quintessential Hollywood. Brilliant, eloquent,dedicated, and magical. An MFA from USC film school. When not making films, hewas nominated ten times for an Emmy as a sound editor. He made a funny commentabout the ten times nominated. And he's worked on iconic shows like ‘Six FeetUnder' and ‘Cobra Kai.'  More schoolingfor me. Blindsided. A blind schoolteacher struggles through a nightmarish nightwhen an alien spaceship crashes. The production features a low-vision cast. Aspecial camera that the blind protagonist wears. Then ‘Lord of the Rings' wasmore schooling. More sound bites. I mentioned ‘From Here to Eternity.' Thesound of a screen door closing, an echo in an empty rec-room in 1941 PearlHarbor, still resonates with me. And I had Patrick, a ‘teacher', to expressthis too.  I've been waiting five decadesto sound off. And AI came up. As did the 1956 film ‘Forbidden Planet.' Wecould've gone on for a few more hours. But the school bell rang.”  Calvin

Dana Malstaff 56 mins Edit   Reply       Stop Letting My Title Cost Me Clients: Focus on Frameworks, Not Labels In this episode, I explain how what I call myself—my title and even my business name—can actually confuse the market and keep me from getting the clients I want and building consistent income. After coaching thousands of women, I've seen that trying to be clever with a unique title backfires, so I need to stop making my title creative and instead focus on the framework I use to take someone from a problem to a transformation. I also share how titles can get tangled with my identity, especially as a mom whose sense of self keeps evolving, so I shouldn't pin my identity to a label. Finally, I challenge the old idea that I need a perfect business card or bio, and I invite listeners to email me or join the Boss Mom community to keep the conversation going. 00:00 Titles That Repel Clients 00:20 Welcome to Boss Mom 00:44 Stop Being Clever 01:39 Sell a Framework 02:45 Titles and Identity Traps 03:40 Lead With Results 04:49 Ditch the Business Card 05:44 Bios and Relationship Building 06:20 Framework Sweet Spot 06:43 Next Steps and Wrap Up

Have you ever felt like you need to look a certain way to sign more clients as a health coach? That "your body is your business card" belief could be doing more harm than good for you and your clients.In this episode, host Dr. Kasey Jo Orvidas sits down with co-host, Sarah Tierney, to unpack the belief that coaches must achieve a certain aesthetic to be credible. Sarah, who teaches body image inside the Health Mindset Coaching Certification, brings research-backed insights on why this mindset is so common and so damaging. They discuss:Why coaches' unexamined body image beliefs can accidentally pass unhelpful patterns to clientsPositive vs. neutral body image beliefsThe harmful effects of "look good naked" messaging on social mediaWhen (and how) it's okay to talk about body transformation as a coachAnd discuss a real-life example from an HMCC student, who is a registered dietitian who felt she couldn't market her expertise because her body didn't "look the part."If you're a health or fitness coach struggling with how to show up authentically online, or wondering how to help clients with body image goals without causing harm, this conversation will challenge your assumptions and give you a more nuanced framework to work from.Watch full episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/WIz6TycLWHoConnect with us on Instagram: @coachkaseyjo@sarahmichelletierney Grab 5 Free Lessons in Mindset and Behavior Change Coaching [HMCC WAITLIST]LEAVE A REVIEW, WIN A WORKSHOP!

What if your journey from poverty to six countries was shaped by stepping stones of relationships? In this episode, Ghazenfer Mansoor shares how Technology Rivers helps health tech companies build HIPAA compliant software products and helps healthcare service businesses 10x their operations through AI and technology. With a computer science background and experience building a recruitment SaaS company, Ghazenfer started Technology Rivers with one core philosophy: build it right the first time. Too many founders hire developers and end up with never-ending products that keep building but never launch. His team focuses on helping startups with limited money build the right MVP so they can get traction, get customers, and secure more funding. The work creates a double bottom line: supporting businesses solving world problems while creating opportunities and livelihoods for people across six countries. He reveals that his journey wasn't shaped by one person, but by stepping stones of relationships. Growing up in Pakistan in poverty, mentors and friends guided him toward education and opportunities that eventually brought him to the US. Coaches, entrepreneurial groups like EO, and books like "Who Not How" all shaped his direction. The most powerful story? Exchanging business cards at a conference. Months later, that person called about a project. Over six years, that one card exchange generated close to $2 million in business.   [00:05:20] What Technology Rivers Does Software development business serving health tech companies primarily Started helping all verticals but gradually focused just on health tech Help companies build HIPAA compliant software products Work with healthcare service businesses, help them 10x operations through AI and technology [00:06:00] Build It Right the First Time Wanted to fix problem of never-ending products that keep building but never launch Companies hiring developers with products that are never ending Founders have limited money, need to build right MVP to get traction and funding Help startups build products right the first time so they're not broke if it doesn't work [00:08:00] Creating Double Bottom Line Impact Help companies create solutions that solve world's problems Every founder working with them is solving something, changing the world Also creating opportunities for people supporting those projects Team in six different countries, many in growing economies, creating livelihoods [00:10:20] AI is the Biggest Shift Started career in early web, but AI is even much bigger shift Mind blowing how things are moving, but also creating opportunities Much easier now for people who want to create companies and solutions AI not just solving existing problems but bringing new problems to solve [00:12:00] Journey Shaped by Series of Relationships Not just one person, journey shaped by series of relationships as stepping stones Growing up in Pakistan, mentor guided him to take risky opportunity That opportunity created by colleague in same company Friend said "you have to do your master's degree" when Ghazenfer only had diploma [00:13:00] From Poverty to Possibility Friend showed the path, arranged meeting, pushed toward higher education Was in poverty, didn't have means for education People supported along the way giving opportunities on jobs or introducing to something Each opportunity helped get to next step [00:13:40] Coming to the United States Would not have been in US without those opportunities Friend introduced to recruiter who was recruiting for company in US Coach helped see certain things in way he hadn't seen before Entrepreneurial groups (EO, Vistage forums) helped shape journey [00:14:40] Books That Shaped Direction "The Great Game of Business" by Jack Stack - partnership made based on this book "Who Not How" by Dan Sullivan - amazing book "What Got You Here Won't Get You There" by Marshall Goldsmith "How to Win Friends and Influence Others" by Dale Carnegie [00:15:40] Taking the Leap Created own podcast, started speaking engagements Wrote first book "Beyond the Download: How to Build Mobile Apps That People Love, Use, and Share Every Day" Now writing another book All these people contributed to growth, wouldn't be fair to point to just one person [00:19:20] Clients as Partners and Coaches Client gave guidance and tips that helped do things in certain way Coaching came directly from client to team: "If you do it this way, this would help me" Relationship with clients has always been as partners Client guided in terms of how to do things, shaped development effort [00:22:00] Co-Creation is Key Software development and product development can only work if co-creating Not about giving instructions and just doing it Believe in co-creation as collaborative effort Client comes with idea, have to discuss, brainstorm, come up with right way [00:23:40] Challenging in a Positive Way Someone said "you would challenge our client's business approaches" Don't challenge their decision, communicate and make sure they hear alternate options Challenge in positive way: "Have you thought about this alternate option?" Show three ways of doing something with one recommendation [00:24:40] Three Options, One Recommendation Not making decision for client, letting client make decision Giving enough information to make the decision If only give one option and it doesn't go well, it's a problem Software products need that product approach with enough guidance and information [00:27:00] The Power of Physical Business Cards At conferences, people say "Who uses cards nowadays?" Challenge: Once you leave a conference, how do you remember who you connected with? If just connect on LinkedIn, no reference left when you have thousands of contacts Physical cards are cheaper and provide tangible reminder [00:27:40] The $2 Million Card Exchange Years ago at conference, sitting with someone, exchanged cards Few months later, guy called: "We were on same table, you gave me your card" Working on global software project, needed help Got that project, then partner introduced them to another company [00:28:40] Six Years of Business from One Card After six months of work, got another project, then another one Over six years timeframe, got close to $2 million in business From that one card exchange From that point, focused on improving quality of card and keeps bunch with him [00:29:20] Cards Keep You Top of Mind Cards are cheap but provide reminder when back at home or office In sales they talk about follow ups: be in front of people at right time Traditional way but works for Ghazenfer Still keeps bunch with him all the time [00:36:20] Be the Go-To Person Book "Networking is Not Working" by Derek Coburn resonated Want to be go-to person for anything - even if someone needs a plumber Are you the person who's connected to many that friends always call? If you are that person, makes huge difference   KEY QUOTES "Software development, product development can only work if you are co-creating something. If the clients are giving instructions, then we're just like everybody else, then we are not really doing our work. We believe in co-creation." - Ghazenfer Mansoor "You wanna be the go-to person for anything. If somebody even needs a plumber, who do they call? Are you the person who's connected to many that your friends are always calling you?" - Ghazenfer Mansoor (quoting Derek Coburn) CONNECT WITH GHAZENFER MANSOOR

There was two parts of the digital revolution that changed the business. One was print on demand publishing where you didn't have to do big print runs to get the cost down. So my first book, you know, first run was 2,500 books. Second run was another 2,500 books. It was called the second printing. The joke is, yeah, my book went to two printings because the first one was blurred, but no. So you would earn extra printings. Henry DeVries [00:00:24]: But with print on demand it's just, just as economical to print one book as the unit price. On the 2500 books.

Today we're welcoming, slash, preparing to learn from. Let's see here, Henry, I'm going to try to say your last name. Devries. Henry DeVries [00:01:06]: There you go. Henry Devries with the cheese. James Kademan [00:01:10]: I love it. Of Indie Books International. And we're talking books and marketing and all that jazz. So Henry, how is it going today? Henry DeVries [00:01:18]: It is so great. I'm so excited to talk about the virtues of a book marketing with a book that you're proud of. James Kademan [00:01:26]: I love it. I love it. You know, you raise an interesting point here. I just want to give you a really quick anecdote before we run down the road of marketing with your book. I was given a book by someone that they were hustling as something I suppose like a business card. Probably what we'll mention. Henry DeVries [00:01:43]: Sure. James Kademan [00:01:43]: And I had started reading it and it was, it was bad. It was really bad. It's not to say the content itself was bad. I felt like it was very poorly written and not edited at all. So I saw this guy later at a different networking function. I'm like, hey man, your book was interesting. Who did you use for an editor? And he's like, oh yeah, I edit it myself. I don't need to pay someone to edit it. James Kademan [00:02:08]: And I was like, oh, okay, great. Fantastic. Way to go. You can totally tell I didn't say that. Henry DeVries [00:02:15]: James, we have a saying. The world does not need another crappy self published book. James Kademan [00:02:21]: Oh, I love that saying. That's perfect. That's perfect. So let's start with what you got going on, Henry. How long have you been in the book marketing world? Henry DeVries [00:02:32]: Indie Books International. We started on April 1, 2014. I'd been a ghost writer for books for years before that. So officially 11 years publishing over 200 books in that time. James Kademan [00:02:48]: All right, well, that's a fair number that is Any specific genre. Henry DeVries [00:02:55]: Yes. Well, business books. So according to Barnes and noble, there are 16 subcategories of books. And then since we're nonfiction, some of our books fall under self help, or they'll fall under whatever industry the person is in. So it. It. But it tends to be these nonfiction books to help business people find right fit prospects. James Kademan [00:03:19]: Right on. You know, it's interesting you say that. I, I assume as you know, I wrote and published a book, and it was interesting because I use it essentially as a business card. But I had somebody ask me if I ever made money from the book, and I was like, no, no, I would love to be Stephen King or something like that. Where you're making thousands of dollars every month off your book and to not have to fight to find a publisher, that was not the case. So in that non fiction realm, I guess I'm saying that to say I feel like in the non fiction realm, that's more of the case rather than the fiction realm. I don't. Correct me if I'm wrong here. Henry DeVries [00:04:01]: Well, in the nonfiction realm, it's all about marketing with a book. I didn't write the book marketing a book. I did it marketing with a book, meaning it's what happens as a result of the book. And our authors have found they've gotten returns of 400 to 2000% ROI by marketing with a book and a speech. We like to say publishing the book is the starting line. The book is your ticket to ride. It's your ticket to get into the game. James Kademan [00:04:32]: I love. Okay, so essentially what you're saying is the book is a marketing tool. You're not marketing the book, you're marketing with a book. Okay, that's way better. Clarification. Henry DeVries [00:04:42]: One of my authors made a million dollars, and he didn't even care how many books he sold, but he gave away hundreds and hundreds of books. And. And that resulted in clients. Five figure clients. And that he says it adds up to over a million dollars that he got as a result of being the author of that book over and above what he would have made. James Kademan [00:05:07]: I love it. All right, so let's dig into why someone would want to market with a book rather than throwing ads on the Internet or a big billboard or cold calling or something of that nature. Henry DeVries [00:05:18]: Well, because you want to be seen as the authority in your Space for a certain group of people who have a certain problem. You're the authority and you can't spell authority without the word author. So authors are respected because of the research they've done, the people they've talked to and the results that they share. And then that attracts people especially right fit prospects to them. And they're not chasing the prospects. It's like a magnet that's attracting the prospects to them. James Kademan [00:05:51]: I love it. You mentioned self publishing. Is that typically where you're steering people to or what you're steering people to do? Henry DeVries [00:05:59]: Oh no, we call it self publishing, the S word. Even if you do it, don't ever say your book was self published because that has a stigma to it. It's like what crazy old grandpas do? You indie publish your book. You might cobble together a team to help you indie publish the book. The person in your example, he missed a big player at it. An editor. And there's different types of editors. I'm a developmental editor. Henry DeVries [00:06:26]: I help people develop a manuscript, an idea how it would play in the marketplace, how to bake marketing into it. But you also need line editors, people who make sure that you don't use the wrong word or the styles right, or a typo. James, I'll tell you, you triggered my all time worst story of somebody who came up to me, was so proud of their book and he handed me his book and he said, what do you think? And on the COVID it said forward F O R W A R D by this name. Well, it's actually F O R E. W O R D is a forward, a word that comes first in a book. So he had this major glaring typo on the COVID of his book. James Kademan [00:07:16]: Oh no. Henry DeVries [00:07:17]: And he said, well, what do you think? I said, well, I've got to point out you have this glaring typo on the COVID of your book. Oh, oh, I printed 5,000 copies. What should I do? And I said Fahrenheit 451. If you know science fiction and Ray Bradbury, that's the temperature books burn at. Fahrenheit 451. Famous science fiction book. So I was telling him to burn 5,000 books, which he did. Because I said I don't even want you to give these away or donate them to some thrift store because every time somebody sees your name and this book and that typo, it's bringing you down in the market. Henry DeVries [00:08:03]: The same thing with a crappy self published book where they said, oh, you know, I can do it cheap. I said, okay, well, let's say you have a big speech and people have paid you $5,000 to come speak to them, and you got to wear something. Are you going to go to Goodwill and see if somebody donated something good that week? Or, you know, maybe there's an Armani suit there,

Jack McColl is an entrepreneur, business credit expert, and founder of Credit Stacking, a program that has helped thousands of entrepreneurs access over $100M in 0% interest funding to grow their businesses and create lifestyle freedom. Starting with just $10K and a hoverboard company, Jack learned through tough equity deals and high-interest loans before cracking the code on how to secure $100K+ in business credit with no tax returns or business history. Since launching Credit Stacking in 2016, Jack has scaled it into a seven-figure business, co-founded multiple ventures, and been featured in Forbes for his work. He now teaches entrepreneurs how to scale faster, avoid giving up equity, and use credit as a "cheat code" for growth. Based in Utah, Jack is also an action-sports enthusiast and private pilot who believes business should be a vehicle for freedom, not a grind. During the show we discussed: What Credit Stacking is and how it accelerates funding access. How optimizing personal credit boosts business card approvals. Whether beginners with no business history can get high-limit cards. What sets Credit Stacking apart from other credit or funding programs. Typical timeline for seeing results in the program. Common mistakes people make when building business credit alone. How business credit fuels growth without equity loss or risky loans. Which industries benefit most from Credit Stacking. How "top" business credit cards are selected. The role of personal credit scores in funding approvals. Typical credit limits achieved after completing the program. How the program helps avoid high-interest debt while scaling. Real success stories from entrepreneurs using Credit Stacking. How Credit Stacking supports those with already strong credit. Immediate steps to start stacking credit and accessing capital. Resources: https://go.creditstacking.com/

Auf der Banking Exchange diskutierten Dr. Peter Robejsek (Deutschlandchef Mastercard) und Jan Stechele (CRO Moss) über die größten Hebel der Digitalisierung im Mittelstand – von Working Capital über Business Cards bis hin zu KI.

In this episode, I'm joined by my friend and fellow entrepreneur, Tara Wagner. Tara is an accredited small business consultant who has been through a lot in recent years, navigating chronic health challenges and long COVID while still running a successful business.We had a really honest conversation about what it looks like to build a sustainable, profitable business when life throws you curveballs and how social media, specifically Instagram, can either help or hurt in that process. Tara shared how she's learned to treat her Instagram profile more like a digital business card: simple, strategic, and supportive of her overall business goals (without requiring hours of her time every week).If you've been feeling overwhelmed or uninspired by social media, I think you'll find this conversation refreshing and encouraging.Listen to the full episode to hear:How to optimize your Instagram profile so it works for you even when you're not actively postingWhy social media shouldn't run your business — or your lifeHow to create intentional content that aligns with your offers and helps convert followers into clientsTara's plan for her own 90-day challenge to revive her social media presence in a way that feels aligned and manageableWant to quit your job in the next 6-18 months with passive income from selling digital products online?

Chase just launched a new business credit card and rolled out changes to the Chase Sapphire Reserve—but are these updates actually worth getting excited about? In this episode, I'm joined once again by Kelly from The Points and Miles Doc for a candid review of what's new in the Chase ecosystem. From rising annual fees to underwhelming credits and a business card that looks a lot like what already exists, we're breaking down the updates—and what they really mean for your wallet. We also talk about how these cards stack up against competitors like Amex and Capital One, when the new benefits might be worth it, and why we're not jumping to add either of these to our travel strategy just yet. If you're holding the Chase Sapphire Reserve or considering a new business card, this episode will help you make a more informed decision.   Get full show notes and transcript: https://pointmetofirstclass.com/chase-sapphire-reserve-business-review-2025/ Want to shape the show?
