There are a number of trend-based marketing opportunities you can leverage to achieve profit breakthroughs in 2022.   In today's episode, host Roland Frasier shares 5 more business trends you'll want to know about, and stay on top of, in the coming year. In Part 1, he talked about:   ESG DEI The Great Resignation Supply reallocation AI   Listen in for trends #6 through #10 as well as practical, actionable steps to help you take advantage of them starting today.   Trend #6: Web 3.0   This one is huge. Roland believes it's the most important, most long-lasting, and will have the biggest impact because it will replace a lot of giant incumbent tech companies. You need to have an awareness of Web 3.0, what it is, how you'll be affected by it, and how to take advantage of it. In simplest terms, Web 3.0 is basically block chain technology.    Here's the cool thing. What it really is going to do (and is doing) is democratize the ability of any creator to own their audience. The challenge in the past has been that, if you're on Facebook and create a giant group, and Facebook decides they don't like you, you lose it all. There's no due process. It's not fair.   Imagine instead that all of your audiences are completely portable. You aren't relying on a social media platform. You get exposed to an audience on a platform, get booted, and get to bring your audience with you. Web 3.0 says, that when you work hard to build an audience, you get to keep the loyalty of that audience and take it wherever you want.    This will be game-changing. Opportunities will pop up that will become alternatives to social media platforms. Hopefully it will force incumbents to be better. Take any chance you get to participate and invest in Web 3.0 companies. Get your content out there in some of these places too. Help other people understand NFTs and Web 3.0.   Also, just generally across the block chain, look for opportunities to get involved with businesses and products coming out of it.   Trend #7: Authenticity   This is an opportunity to help companies understand that their audiences want to know the truth. They don't want fake photoshopped things. They want real people telling them how things really are. The heavy-produced photo shoots don't convert as well as simple iPhone videos. People are looking for ways to recapture “real.”   What are the opportunities there? First, become someone who's authentic and real. Test authenticity against whatever you had out there before. How can we be more real, more connected and communicative with our audience? How can you help other companies do that? How can you facilitate migration to authenticity? How can you coach those companies and create services and opportunities?    Social purpose goes hand in hand with this. Be authentic in supporting some social good out in the world.    Trend #8: Coopetition, Integration, and Strategic Partnerships   This is where companies are competing with each other and also cooperating in their competition. Coopetition is a big buzzword right now, but it's hard for direct competitors to cooperate with each other, so Roland isn't sure how successful it's going to be. Facilitating coopetition could be an opportunity for you, a way to make a name for yourself in a blue ocean field.   We'll definitely see more integrations, brands partnering with each other to release new products. Brands are able to create brand awareness with other brands' audiences, helping their audience connect with a whole new brand with your endorsement.    Ask: Who are the brands I would like to have access to the audience of, and how can I approach them? This will reduce your customer acquisition costs if we're sharing in this way. Strategic partnerships are similar to a product integration, just less thorough, but with a lot of opportunities as well.    Trend #9: The Democratization of Funding   We're seeing a lot of this right now. Funding from all kinds of sources. Companies like Robin Hood and SPACs (special purpose acquisition companies), even private equity funds which allow small investors who would normally be cut out of access to big deals to participate in finance activities. You might want to consider investing in some of these, but remember that they're risky.    Trend #10: First Party Data   We need new ways for marketers to find people. We used to be able to target people very specifically, but through privacy laws, iOS 14 updates, and a whole bunch of other initiatives, that's a thing of the past. Businesses that were very narrowly targeting people are having trouble making money. Their customer acquisition costs have gone up so much. Your ability to go out to a platform and harvest an audience is decreasing.   Do we go back to TV? No. But it's going to be more and more important to create our own media and own our own media. You need to have first party data, a list. You don't want to have to rely on third party cookies. You don't want to be dependent on these platforms.   How do you make money off this trend? Help companies who used to spend millions of dollars on targeted advertising put that money somewhere else and build an audience. Can you acquire companies that already have first party audiences? There are a lot of opportunities here.   No matter where you are, who you are, how much experience you have, how much money you have, you can turn these trends into monetizable opportunities for yourself. If you're not taking advantage of them in 2022, you definitely risk getting left behind.   OUR PARTNERS: 7 Steps to Scalable workbook Get a free proposal from Conversion Fanatics Get 3% cash back on your ad spend with AdCard Get Roland's book, Zero Down, FREE Join Roland's next EPIC Challenge

Funding for public art is a hot topic amid ongoing negotiations over the City of San Antonio's $1.2 billion bond package proposal, as council members seem split on whether to take some dollars from public art for other projects.

Despite initially resisting the call of entrepreneurship, Patrick De Nonneville has since built a fast-growing fintech startup that has raised over $50M in equity. He has also raised almost $1B in credit facilities to fund other small and medium-sized businesses. Patricks's venture, October, has raised funding from top-tier investors like The Caisse des Depots, Intesa Sanpaolo, Idinvest Partners, and Matmut.

Our expert host, Simon Taylor, is joined by some great guests to get under the skin of the debate into who is currently leading the fintech revolution. With the recent success stories of Chime, Current, Bond, Unit, Ramp, Brex, Persona, Alloy, Plaid, MX, and many many more – there's a velocity to the USA right now. However it has also been argued that the US are late to the party and Europe was having this glut of success 3-5 years ago and the US are just catching up. So with this in mind – we're asking who is currently ahead when it comes to fintech, the USA or Europe? This week's guests include: Peter Lord, CEO, Codat Amon Ghaiumy, Co-Founder, Ophelos Valentina Kristensen, Director, Growth & Communications, OakNorth All of this and much more on today's episode!

The approach to education should never be one-size-fits-all. The school choice movement has grown tremendously since the start of the pandemic, and parents have discovered the wide variety of options available to customize learning to fit the needs of their child. Allowing funding to follow students, not systems, provides greater flexibility for students, teachers, and families, and increases opportunities for students to flourish and become productive members of society. In this episode, Linda interviews Scott Jensen, a senior strategist for the nation's largest school choice organization, the American Federation for Children. School choice policies affect your family, business, and community.

Grant writers cannot get paid to write grants on commission. This is one of the most popular urban myths of the grant writing world. It might sound like a win-win situation, but it's not. ✨

Today on the Rudy Giuliani Show, America's Mayor lays out how George Soros continues to fund anti-police movements like BLM and Antifa. Plus, crime continues to pose a problem for New York City, and the current Mayor of New York, Eric Adams, seems to be failing at controlling that recent trend, and also, Rudy pleads that the police need to step up if they are going to try and enforce the law now more than ever.

This is our Wednesday show, where we niche down to a single topic, think about a question and unpack the rest. This week, Natasha and Alex dared to refresh perhaps the most common conversation in startups these days: the ubiquity, and resulting irrelevance, of unicorns. Our big question wasn't a simple one:Do we care that the meaning of unicorns has been hollowed out?The conversation ran the gamut, starting with information on unicorn creation rates, startup hit success and of course, funding booms leading to aforementioned ripple effects. The majority of our time was spent asking more meta questions about the moniker, like how the quality bar has changed for $1 billion dollar companies and why late-stage thinks it needs to act like early stage?On TC+, we've recently written about the changing characteristics of unicorns, and how public markets may bring a not-so-private reckoning to tech's stars.

My guest this week is Olowo-n'djo Tchala. Born in the village of Kaboli, Togo, West Africa near the border of Benin, Olowo-n'djo grew up sharing an 8'x10' room with seven siblings and his mother. Although they did not always have enough, his mother, Ina, instilled in him the importance of kindness and generosity by always sharing what they could. Unable to afford school fees, Olowo-n'djo dropped out of school in the sixth grade to help support his family. After meeting his wife he founded Alaffia in 2003. In 2004, armed with his understanding of the value of indigenous West African resources and sustainable business ideologies, he launched Alaffia's first collective. Alaffia continues to redefine the natural products industry through its values of beauty, equality and empowerment. Alaffia handcrafts award-winning clean, green beauty and grooming products and is a social enterprise on a mission to invest in a more equitable future. 4:25 – My personal testimonial I'm such a huge fan of Alaffia. My son Amos, who is almost 6, had horrible eczema as a child. We tried everything. Somebody recommended Alaffia to me, and I became a believer. It was safe and smelled amazing. It was a lifesaver. 6:09 - Olowo-n'djo 101 He sees Alaffia as everybody's brand, not just his. He feels honored to do something that he believes in. 10:43 – Meeting his wife Olowo-n'djo's wife, Rose, studied chemistry and is from Washington state. He decided to follow her because, “You have to follow the one that touches your heart.” 14:38 – Meaning of Alaffia Alaffia means peace and health. His beauty brand represents a social movement, not just a business. 18:55 – How his business sprouted Olowo-n'djo's mother instilled a sense of responsibility in him. He wanted to be a subway engineer at one point to help find clean water. 21:20 – Fair trade model Alaffia has gone above the idea of the  “fair trade” model. He is setting a standard for other companies. 24:36 – Funding births Olowo-n'djo has funded over 6,500 births. 29:24 – Women's issues I am so grateful to Olowo-n'djo for talking about important topics, like women's' maternal health. Women often have to advocate for themselves, so it's nice to see a man advocating for us. 33:53 – Biggest challenge The biggest challenge he faces depends on the day. The challenges are continuous, and there are incredible difficulties. 37:09 – His products Alaffia makes a lot of bath products, but they also make creams for moisturizing the skin. 41:29 – Get to know you Who would play him in a movie? He would play himself. Who would play his mom in a movie? His aunt FEATURED QUOTES I don't want anyone to feel sorry for us. We have so much to offer the world. I get to do something that I deeply and profoundly believe in, really deep in my heart and my soul. CONNECT: https://www.alaffia.com/ About Olowo-n'djo Tchala: Olowo-n'djo Tchala, founder and CEO of Alaffia, was born and raised in the village of Kaboli, Togo, Africa located in the Central region near the border of Benin. Growing up, he shared an 8' x 10' room with his mother and seven siblings. Olowo-n'djo's mother taught him the importance of kindness and generosity and by the age of five, Olowo-n'djo was working on the family farm to help support his family. After meeting Prairie Rose Hyde, who was serving in the Peace Corps at the time, he came to the United States and worked his way through school, eventually graduating from the University of California, Davis with a degree in organizational theory. Shortly before graduation, Olowo-n'djo and Rose felt they had the responsibility to fight the injustices that existed in West Africa. They founded Alaffia, which handcrafts award-winning clean and fair trade beauty and grooming care. The organization advances gender equality and alleviates poverty through the fair trade of indigenous African resources such as unrefined shea butter, African black soap, coconut oil and neem extract.

Earlier this week, Chairman Biden gave a speech endorsing the abolition of the filibuster in the name of “voting rights.” In other words, he wants Democrats to radically rewrite the election laws for the entire country, and the only way they have any hope of doing that is by getting rid of the filibuster. America-First Congressman Paul Gosar of Arizona has thought about this a lot more than we have, though, so hopefully he'll have some answers for us. Paul Gosar joins us. Karen Kingston is back with even more findings stemming from the Project Veritas release earlier this week. In his letter to the inspector general, former DARPA fellow Major Joseph Murphy claimed that, after DARPA rejected EcoHealth Alliance's proposal to do dangerous and illegal gain-of-function research on bat coronaviruses, EcoHealth went to Tony Fauci and got his agency at the NIH to fund the research instead. Karen joins us. Steve Kirsch says up to 400,000 Americans could be DEAD after getting the bioweapon death jab. We'll ask him how he arrived at that number!

Dom Giordano, WPHT host and former teacher, has dedicated much of his daily show toward parents who are taking it into their own hands to push back against school boards that have a negative impact on their children. This has culminated in a weekly podcast on education, Readin', Writin', and Reason, which has allowed wonderful relationships to develop between Giordano, educators, and parents throughout the country who are speaking out against overbearing school boards. First, Dom welcomes back friend of the show Ron Tomalis, former Pennsylvania Secretary of Education, to discuss the dire situation in Philadelphia public schools. Giordano and Tomalis discuss how the city could find itself in such a funding struggle, allowing children to fail at an incredible rate. Tomalis reveals what is being done elsewhere to address budgetary concerns, offers what he believes to be the issue within the school system, and tells of the implications on taxes within the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.  Then, Asra Nomani, Vice President of Strategy and Investigations for Parents Defending Education, rejoins the podcast to discuss a bombshell report by her organization that alleges that Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona solicited a very controversial letter from the National School Boards Association that compared protesting parents to domestic terrorists. In an October 5th email exchange, NSBA Secretary Treasurer Kristi Swett wrote that NSBA leader Chip Slaven “told officers he was writing a letter to provide information to the White House, from a request by Secretary Cardona.” Nomani tells how the organization uncovered the emails, and Giordano lays forth what this means in the grand scope of the school board narrative. Finally, Angie Schmitt, author of Right of Way: Race, Class, and the Silent Epidemic of Pedestrian Deaths in America, joins the podcast to discuss a piece she penned for the Atlantic, telling why Coronavirus policies have caused her to sour on Democrats. First, Schmitt takes Giordano through her past year, raising and schooling two children while being the primary source of income. Schmitt tells that during her 6 months off from work, her entire family got Coronavirus, and she recognized that there may be ulterior motives at play here. In addition, Schmitt tells that she feels both parties, Democrat and Republican, have spent too much time fighting one another rather than finding a solution out of the pandemic.

Up to this point, we've understood Charles Eisenstein as the poet-philosopher of conspirituality, lending his Burning Man ritual workshop chops to the antivax faux-freedom movement. Out of deference to his apparent sensitivity and respectable writing skills, we've given him the benefit of the doubt—we even invited him on this show for two episodes to see whether we could find common ground. We didn't.In our last Bonus episode, Julian tracked how Eisenstein has accelerated and intensified his rhetoric. Today, we'll see how he's fortifying his money networks, and starting to say the quiet parts out loud. He's no longer “just” dog-whistling violence and QAnon. We're reviewing a recent video he's co-produced with Onnit multimillionaire and Austin bro-poet Aubrey Marcus. It's an anime rendition of the ending of his 2013 bestseller, The More Beautiful World Our Hearts Know is Possible. In the book, Eisenstein presents “The Gathering of the Tribe” as a kind of personal mythology. As he levels up to the big leagues, this story about belonging to a group of blessed alien shamans sent to wake up humanity carries clear real-world literalness—and a culty vibe. If the high-end video doesn't convince you, a tape from a hipster New Year's Eve party in Ithaca NY might do the trick. As he holds guru-court for All the Big Questions, Eisenstein tells an Iraq vet that he has special gifts to deploy against the (fictional) building of COVID concentration camps in Rhode Island. Then he says he hopes the “pedophile elite” will just stop. Sound familiar?Eisenstein's content is poetic and vague. Its implications are plausibly deniable. It pours out through an endless stream of radiant and inscrutable essay drops. He has mastered the cryptic prompt that either speaks to your soul, to your appetite for disrupting public health, or to your recent tactical training regimen. Who can really tell? His skill is to stand beside and above it all. He can avoid being pinned down. It's almost as if he's not really there, but only reflecting the zeitgeist of our broken moment. It's time to just name him for what he is: New Age Q.Show NotesA Gathering of the Tribe | POWERFUL Short Film by Charles Eisenstein w/ Jon Hopkins & Aubrey MarcusA Gathering of the Tribe | Reality Sandwich (original, 2009)A Gathering of the Tribe (full version Charles's site)Interview with Charles Eisenstein | Inner World Press | Shift in Consciousness Ezine In the Miracle (Eisenstein essay, 2009)Charles Eisenstein at Resonance NYE The Man Behind the World's Most Famous Fake Vagina233: Aubrey Marcus – Own The Day, Own Your LifeAustin supplement maker boosting brains and bodiesHe Had One Product, $80K in Funding, and One Influencer - And Unilever Just Acquired His Company for 9 FiguresAlpha Nails: Men's Nail Polish That Gives You 'Swag And Sex'Art of Manliness Podcast #93: Total Human Optimization W

About Person Irresponsible in her own words:   "In 2020 the world went to hell in a handbag. This isn't exactly headline news - although it was then. I went from perfectly locatable in the Cotswolds to utterly baffled in the American wilderness when I embarked on a quest to walk from Mexico to Canada for reasons that escape me. It was most probably nothing more dramatic than a mid-life crisis.   Perhaps I should have come ‘home' but I lived in the deluded optimism the pandemic would all be over by the summer. Besides, I'd given up my home: shoving my belongings into storage, persuaded someone to look after my cat and someone else to look after my car.    I did think about returning but each time I popped into civilisation to top up my supplies, I discovered a new reason to run for the hills. So 'home' became a tent: a mere flimsy bit of fabric to protect me from every conceivable terror that exists in the wilderness - bears, rattlesnakes, deserts, avalanches and other human beings. Most dangerous of all was the racket inside my head.   Everything you ever taught me is my journey, relying on nothing other than the twelve steps of recovery, teaching me to take it one day at a time, one step at a time, and one bloody ginormous mountain at a time as I staggered my way along the Pacific Crest Trail.    As mid-life crises go, I remain utterly clueless why mine took me from my sofa to the Canadian border via the fridge, powered only by two chubby legs and a fat arse.”   New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast go live every Tuesday at 7am UK time - Hit the subscribe button so you don't miss out.    The Tough Girl Podcast is sponsorship and ad free thanks to the monthly financial support of patrons.    Support the mission to increase the amount of female role models in the media.

Aysha Tegally along with Torera (Tori) Abiola are the co-founders of Future Females Invest. Both Aysha and Tori were tired of the lack of access to finance for African female founders. In 2019 Future Females Invest merged with Tori's WOWe (Women of West Africa Entrepreneurs) to become truly Pan-African; financially empowering and enabling African female founders. Future Females Invest is changing systems by providing consultancy, training, access to investment and markets, ecosystem support to African women entrepreneurs, investors, NGOs, and gender empowerment advocates in public and private sector organizations. What you will learn from this episode: Mentorship is nice but women need access to capital to complement that in order for them to make the financial investments needed to grow their business. Women themselves can act as barriers to accessing investment by not always having the confidence to ask for what they want or feel the need to over-prepare before they make an ask compared to their male counterparts. A system change is needed that includes more women in decision-making roles such as women on the boards of funds and in C-suites and senior positions where decisions are made and also as investors to improve the ecosystem for more women to access capital. Women angel investors have a unique role to play by investing in more business sectors where you tend to find more women entrepreneurs such as in the beauty industry and the baby market for example. Support that women angel investors provide goes beyond funding to help women founders connect to other sources of capital and networks that can help them and their businesses to grow. Get in touch with FFI Angels if you are an African female founder (or a non-Africa-based female founder with a business that serves the African market) looking for seed capital, business, and moral support to help you grow and scale your business.

When you dig into the numbers about two out of three small businesses fail. Considering I have three kids at home that have an entrepreneurial spirit that means two of them might not ever move out of the house. There are a few common areas I coach people around that come into the TSBDC. Most entrepreneurs have some level of fear of failure they have to overcome. The next is how to translate their skills into entrepreneurship. Then the most common area is finances, most businesses I see are undercapitalized. The last area is planning, while they may have an idea they are excited about they fail to create a plan that outlines how the business will run and make money.  The reason I like coaching people that already have a side hustle going is they have a proof of concept. Regardless of the size of the business, they turned an idea into a product or service that people are paying money for. Also, growing your business on the side while you continue to work your day job is a great way to ensure when you do make the transition that you will still be able to pay your bills. Because your time is more limited with a side hustle you also have to learn more quickly how to automate manual redundant tasks. Which unlocks scalability that is essential to making it when you pivot to full-time entrepreneurship.  When it comes to creating a financial plan for your business I tell people to focus on replacing a percentage of their income in year one, in year two double it, and so on until they reach the point they can make the career switch and still live life. Funding a start-up isn't easy because banks know there is a lot more risk with a new business. The most important number any business needs to be successful though is not funding but cash flow. Most banks won't even consider lending to a business that's less than 2-years old because they want to see a history of cash flow.   Resources Shared: Tennessee Small Business Development CentersYourcharlesalexander.comExplainer VideosSBA.govThryv

https://astralcodexten.substack.com/p/lewis-carroll-invented-retroactive Retroactive public goods funding is one of those ideas that's so great people can't stop reinventing it. I know of at least five independent inventions under five different names: “social impact bonds” by a New Zealand economist in 1988, “certificates of impact” by Paul Christiano in 2014, “retroactive public goods funding” by Vitalik Buterin a few years ago, “EA loans” by a blogger who prefers to remain anonymous, and “venture grants” by Mako Yass. These aren't all exactly the same idea. Some are slightly better framed than others and probably I'm being terribly disrespectful to the better ones by saying they're the same as the worse ones. But I think they all share a basic core: some structure that lets profit-seeking venture capitalist types invest in altruistic causes, in the hopes that altruists will pay them back later once they've been shown to work. Upon re-reading some old SSC comments, I found a gem I'd missed the first time around: Julie K says that the actual first person to invent this idea was Lewis Carroll (aka author of Alice in Wonderland) back in 1894. She quotes from his book Sylvie and Bruno:
