Subscribe to DTC Newsletter - https://dtcnews.link/signupIn this episode of the DTC Podcast, host Eric Dyck sits down with Dougie, Head of the Google team at Pilothouse, to unpack how DTC brands can and should use YouTube advertising more strategically — especially when trying to build awareness and capture new demand before peak periods such as BFCM.Key moments & actionable insightsWhy YouTube upper‑funnel campaigns often fail: mis‑targeted audiences, automated overrides, and device‑versus‑user mismatch.How to set up placement, topic and keyword exclusions to avoid low‑quality traffic (e.g., gaming, ASMR, children's content).The importance of checking the actual served demographics in your audience reporting and comparing to your true converter demographics.How optimising for new customer conversions (instead of all conversions) can yield significant gains (e.g., +50% new customers, +15% share of new customers via Google).Why narrow geo‑targeting for awareness campaigns can improve measurability of incremental lift.Why brand‑lift studies may not be the most reliable metric and what alternatives to use (brand search lift, remarketing behaviour, time‑on‑site post‑click).Distinguishing between YouTube for pure awareness vs YouTube driving demand capture, and how budgets and measurement should differ accordingly.Whether you're a performance marketer at a growing DTC brand, or scaling marketing budgets and looking to break through awareness ceilings, this episode gives you tactical controls, audit steps and measurement frameworks to make your YouTube spend work harder.Timestamps00:00 – Why most advertisers are targeting the wrong audiences02:10 – How misaligned content (like kids' or gaming videos) wastes budget05:00 – The sneaky Demand Gen setting sabotaging your audience08:00 – How to force Google to find new customers only11:40 – Using Audience Insights to audit your actual converters14:00 – The evolution of YouTube as a top-of-funnel growth channel17:00 – Why Brand Lift studies can't be trusted and what to measure instead18:40 – Narrower geo-targeting for better awareness results20:00 – Step-by-step audit to fix your top-of-funnel YouTube campaignsHashtags#YouTubeAds #GoogleAds #YouTubeMarketing #PerformanceMarketing #DTC #Pilothouse #MarketingPodcast #AdStrategy #DemandGen #DigitalAdvertising Subscribe to DTC Newsletter - https://dtcnews.link/signupAdvertise on DTC - https://dtcnews.link/advertiseWork with Pilothouse - https://www.pilothouse.co/?utm_source=AKNF556Follow us on Instagram & Twitter - @dtcnewsletterWatch this interview on YouTube - https://dtcnews.link/video

Leads generieren – ohne frische Anfragen keine Termine und damit auch kein Wachstum. In dieser Folge zeige ich mit Børge Grothmann, wie wir qualifizierte Leads planbar aufbauen und dadurch eure Sales-Pipeline füllen. Die Basis für Leadgenerierung ist ein klares ICP. Wenn du genau weißt, wen du erreichen willst, triffst du Entscheider schneller, und du sprichst über echte Probleme. So kannst du einfacher Leads generieren im B2B und zugleich Kosten sparen. Wie kommen jetzt die Anfragen rein? Nicht über Massenmails, sondern über einen schlanken Ablauf: Signale prüfen, gut vorbereitet anrufen und kurz per Mail bestätigen. Das ist saubere Kundenakquise und sorgt dafür, dass du Interessenten gewinnen kannst, die wirklich passen. Damit aus Leads Umsatz wird, arbeiten SDRs und AEs eng zusammen. Wir definieren, was ein guter Ersttermin ist, und prüfen wöchentlich die Qualität. Diese Lead-Qualifizierung hilft dir, Termine zu sichern und daraus echte Chancen zu machen – also Leads generieren mit Substanz. Rechne deinen Funnel rückwärts: vom Zielumsatz über Angebote und Termine bis zu erreichten Entscheidern. Wenn die Quote hakt, findest du so die Engstelle, und du kannst gezielt nachschärfen. Dadurch füllst du die Sales-Pipeline Schritt für Schritt und bleibst in der Demand Generation auf Kurs. Bei den Kanälen gilt: LinkedIn-DMs und Massenmails nutzen sich ab. Der vorbereitete Call wirkt, weil er direkt ist und weil er Nutzen liefert. So betreibst du Outbound Sales mit System, und du kannst schneller B2B-Leads generieren, statt nur zu warten. Make or buy? Wenn du Setting intern nicht sauber abbildest, hilft ein externes Team für eine Zeit. Mit gemeinsamen KPIs, gutem Leadmanagement und einfachem Lead Nurturing bleibst du schlank und kannst dennoch zügig Leads generieren. Mein Fazit: Leads generieren ist kein Zufall. Mit klarem ICP, direkter Akquise, starker Quali und einem ruhigen Prozess füllst du die Pipeline zuverlässig – Monat für Monat. Ausgewählte Links zur Episode

If you're constantly chasing leads, refreshing your inbox, or replying to DMs late at night, this episode is for you. I know exactly what that feels like because I used to do it too.When I first started in real estate, everything relied on me, if I stopped marketing, following up, or networking, the leads stopped too. It was exhausting and unpredictable. The turning point came when I realised I didn't need more work; I needed more structure. That's when I discovered the power of funnels and automation in property management marketing and it changed everything.In this episode, I'm breaking down the exact marketing funnel framework I use in my property management business today. You'll learn how to attract leads with value based content, capture leads through lead magnets, nurture client relationships with authenticity, and convert leads into clients with clarity, all while leveraging AI tools for real estate marketing that make everything faster and easier.This is the system that helped me go from chasing leads to attracting them, even while I'm offline or on holidays. ”One of the things that I have found that's working really well for the clients that we currently work with is creating short videos, breaking down property investment myths. The engagement on some of these videos, especially on platforms like reels and TikTok, is getting huge engagement. These worked because our clients weren't selling. They were serving.”-Kylie WalkerWe cover:What a marketing funnel really is and how it helps clients move from stranger to paying customerThe four stages of every successful sales funnel: Attraction, Connection, Nurture, and ConversionHow to create educational content for property managers that positions you as the go to expertLead magnet ideas that attract high-quality leads so you can grow your property management email list and position yourself as a real estate marketing expert.How to build an email nurture sequence that builds trust over timeThe three most common funnel mistakes and how to avoid themThe AI marketing tools I use every week including ChatGPT, Kajabi, and Canva to save hoursHow to show up consistently and create sustainable growth in your real estate businessJoin my new FREE Masterclass

New claims from royal biographer Andrew Lownie's book Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York allege that Prince Andrew had a “network” of aides and friends who helped arrange young women for him. According to the book, the Duke of York frequently relied on palace staff and security officers to organize introductions, often specifying his “type” — reportedly favoring blondes and ballet dancers. Lownie claims Andrew would sometimes stay in hotels instead of royal residences while abroad to maintain privacy for these encounters. These allegations suggest a pattern of behavior that extended across his time as a trade envoy and well into his social life as a royal, long before his public fall from grace.The revelations have reignited outrage over Andrew's long association with Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, raising new questions about how much palace officials knew and ignored. Though Buckingham Palace has refused to comment, the claims paint a picture of entitlement and impunity—one where royal privilege shielded deeply questionable conduct. Critics note the timing of the release comes as Andrew attempts to stage a quiet re-entry into public life, making the biography's allegations a major setback.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Exclusive | Prince Andrew had network of staff, pals to 'arrange girls' for sex -- and he had a type: biographer

Send us a text Work With Me - https://datadrivenmarketing.co/done-for-youWhen Wendy Solganik spent months building out a sales funnel for her art courses, she was following all the conventional wisdom. She'd already seen the Jeff Walker launch formula work in other industries. She knew the playbook. But after investing significant time, energy, and money, the funnel simply didn't convert.Instead of doubling down on what the gurus were teaching, Wendy made a counterintuitive decision. She went back to simple email marketing and built her online art school into a thriving business that now features courses from 40 different creators.In this episode, Wendy shares her journey from law school dropout to successful course creator. After developing irritable bowel syndrome from the stress of law school, she took a year off and followed her urge to learn pottery. That decision eventually led to running a stationery company for 15 years, followed by a stint in the online diet industry where she first learned about course marketing.Today, Wendy runs a unique online art platform where she positions herself as "the primary student in my own school." Rather than trying to be the star, she curates courses from artists she's genuinely excited to learn from. Her approach challenges many assumptions about online course businesses - she deliberately keeps prices low ($27-$147) despite seeing competitors charge $2,000, and she's built her success on passion rather than psychological marketing tactics.We discuss why organic Instagram is now "very very little of the effective marketing" she does, despite having a large following. How she's become "partners with Meta" through paid ads, spending significant money daily. Why she has "no idea where my sales are coming from" due to tracking challenges. And how email marketing became her most effective channel after abandoning complex funnels.Wendy's story offers a refreshing perspective for course creators who feel overwhelmed by complicated marketing systems. Sometimes the simpler path, driven by genuine passion for your subject matter, leads to better results than following someone else's formula.Check Wendy's work out: https://www.willawanders.com/

I used to see my neighbor across the street in a fascinating duet that he and his two-year-old daughter had evolved. He would stand in the middle of the yard, and she would run around and play close to him and sometimes come to him and put up her arms to be picked up. The first story illustrates how we need the faith of a little child to receive the kingdom of God. Then I reflect on the gift of a loving God and the faith—living faith, receptive and active—that that enables us to receive God's loving gift. I close these thoughts by sharing the symbolism that I find in an image of a man with a funnel in his head. I created this video based on my experiences of living the ideas that I presented in chapter three in my book, A Taste of Joy and Liberty, a chapter that you can read in my introduction to that book on UniversalFamily.org.

In this must-listen episode of The Voice of Retail, host Michael LeBlanc welcomes back Rob Garf, now VP and Head of Industry Strategy at Cordial, to discuss how artificial intelligence is reshaping marketing, consumer engagement, and the future of retail personalization.A longtime retail strategist and thought leader, Garf brings decades of experience “at the intersection of retail, consumer, and technology.” Now leading strategy at the high-growth marketing tech firm Cordial, he shares insights from their new North American study, Brands Battle for Attention as AI Redefines the Funnel. The research explores how retailers and consumers are responding to today's marketing noise, and how brands can stand out with authenticity and relevance instead of more messages.Garf explains how AI is collapsing the traditional marketing funnel, transforming “discovery by channel” into “discovery by conversation.” With a third of consumers now engaging with personal AI agents like ChatGPT, Gemini, or Perplexity, he outlines what this means for marketers who must ensure their products and content are discoverable in an AI-first world.The conversation dives into the challenges retailers face with legacy marketing stacks, data fragmentation, and a loss of trust in their own data. Garf argues that success lies in unifying systems, embedding AI directly into workflows, and focusing relentlessly on consumer intent—understanding not only what customers buy but what they're trying to accomplish in the moment.Beyond the technology, Garf emphasizes the importance of brand storytelling, creative emotion, and the “humanization of digital experiences.” He discusses how AI and brand voice can coexist to deliver meaningful, personalized engagement across every channel—from email and SMS to emerging conversational interfaces.To conclude, Garf offers practical advice for marketers adopting AI: start with clear customer problems, get your data house in order, and manage organizational change with empathy and alignment. The goal, he says, isn't to replace humans but to empower them and deliver the effortless, relevant experiences consumers expect.Whether you're a marketer, technologist, or retail leader, this episode provides actionable insights on how to thrive at the intersection of AI, personalization, and brand authenticity in a rapidly changing digital landscape.

In this episode of Business Lunch, Roland Frasier and Ryan Deiss explain how the classic four-stage buying journey has collapsed into one moment—and why trust is the lid that keeps prospects “popping” in your pot. They unpack three forms of trust—Identity, Competence, and Proximity—with sharp wins and public flops (Nike, Sephora, Peloton, DSW, Starbucks, Apple, United). You'll get simple creative frameworks to turn short-form content into instant, in-channel conversions and a 14-day sprint to prove it on a small budget.Highlights“It's not a funnel anymore—it's a popcorn popper. Your audience are kernels heating at different speeds. Trust is the lid that keeps them popping for you.”“Competence trust means the brand ‘gets me'—often better than I can describe myself.”“Employees outperform celebrities for reach and credibility—because most buyers are employees.”“Frictionless is forgettable. Add desirable friction that helps buyers name their pain and act.”“If you can't pivot your model, bolt trust into your media: mirror-micro-media, why-what-where, people-place-proof.”Mentioned in This EpisodeThree Trust Types (MAP mnemonic):M – Identity trust: Mirror → Micro → MediaA – Competence trust: “Answer” with Why → What → WhereP – Proximity trust: People → Place → ProofCompetence wins & misses: Nike's “Why do it?” repositioning; Sephora tutorials lifting AOV; Peloton's 2019 holiday ad backlash.Proximity plays: DSW AR try-ons; Starbucks barista TikToks; Apple retail specialists; cautionary tale—United Airlines viral incidents.Localization tactics: regional currency/sites, geo-specific visuals (city skylines), and micro-influencers by market.KPI effects: higher AOV/retention/loyalty from competence; higher LTV from proximity; employee posts driving outsized reach.Timestamps00:00 – The collapsed customer journey: from funnel to popcorn popper (trust as the lid)04:00 – Recap: Identity trust (mirror, micro, media)—and why episodes stand alone but compound07:30 – Competence trust: the brand that “gets me” (Nike shift, Sephora demos) + Peloton misread14:20 – Framework for competence: Why → What → Where (myth-bust, demo, direct CTA)17:30 – Example: 30-sec tax advisory myth-buster → LinkedIn/Reels → consult link → track AOV20:10 – Proximity trust: employees, in-place context, show real proof (DSW AR, Starbucks, Apple)24:10 – Employee content > celebrity polish; make it authentic, even shot on phone26:00 – 14-day Trust Sprint and MAP recap; why proximity is overlooked yet most scalableTakeaways for OperatorsStop chasing linear funnels; engineer trust in-channel so action can happen immediately.Use Why → What → Where to collapse steps: name the pain, show the fix, drop the link.Turn staff into a media network: People → Place → Proof with incentives and simple tracking.Localize by currency, domains, visuals, accents, micro-influencers—it quietly multiplies conversion.Run a 14-day sprint: baseline CAC/AOV → recruit 3 customers + 3 insiders → record shorts →...

Today's guest is Manuel Buitrago. Manuel is a PhD, along with being the founder and director of MaStrength, a global education brand dedicated to authentic Chinese weightlifting. Since launching MaStrength in 2014, he's taught 100+ seminars worldwide, authored Chinese Weightlifting: A Visual Guide to Technique and Chinese Weightlifting: Technical Mastery & Training There are many misconceptions in the world of strength training, especially as the lens of a skeletal pressure-based view is not included in modern training systems. When skeletal pressure dynamics are understood, it allows us to see why athletes prefer particular variations of lifts, how and why they fail lifts, and what aspects of the lifts themselves lead to better athletic outcomes. On today's episode, Manuel speaks on the practicalities of weightlifting and how it carries over to sport. He compares powerlifting and Olympic lifting from a technique and transfer standpoint, and gets into how body shapes, breathing, and set-ups affect a lift. Manuel also touches on connective tissue and why it matters for performance and durability. From this episode, you'll learn concepts about the Olympic and powerlifts that can not only improve lifting performance but also facilitate a better transfer to athleticism and movement ability.

(https://www.just-fly-sports.com/podcast-home/) Timestamps 0:20 – The Path to Chinese Weightlifting: A Journey from Gymnastics to Asia 9:30 – Breathing and Torso Shape are the Primary Differentiators Between Olympic and Powerlifting 25:01 – Weightlifting Squats are a Bottom-Up Movement, Distinct from Powerlifting 58:29 – Coaching the Olympic Lift Breath: Creating a "Funnel" for Upward Force 1:05:53 – Applying Shape Strategy to Different Athletes and Sports 1:24:49 – Direct Abdominal Work is Low Priority for Olympic Lifters Actionable takeaways 9:30 – Breathing and Torso Shape are the Primary Differentiators Between Olympic and Powerlifting Change your shape during the lift; successful Olympic lifting requires switching between shapes, not maintaining one position. To move up (the pull), create a "funnel" shape: narrow the lower torso (compressing the abs) and expand the upper torso (chest). To move down (the catch), change to a "cone" shape: narrow at the top and wider at the bottom, which enables faster descent. Avoid starting the lift with a powerlifting-style breath (squeezing the top and expanding the belly against a belt/creating a cone), as this impedes the upward movement necessary for Olympic lifts. 25:01 – Weightlifting Squats are a Bottom-Up Movement, Distinct from Powerlifting Recognize that the squat in weightlifting happens after the catch and is a bottom-up movement, which is fundamentally different from a powerlifting squat that starts from the top and descends. Squats performed from the rack (front or overhead) will look different from a heavy catch, as the catch is an unweighted descent followed by an immediate bottom-up drive. Focus on the funnel shape during the unrack and ascent of a weightlifting squat to maximize the upward gradient. 58:29 – Coaching the Olympic Lift Breath: Creating a "Funnel" for Upward Force From the start position, exhale and compress the abs until they feel tight, then maintain that tension. Inhale while maintaining ab compression, directing the air to fill and expand the chest and the mid-back area (between the shoulder blades) to create the full funnel shape. Do not take a maximum breath (gasping) as this removes space to move and can force the body into a rounded shape that is counterproductive for the lift.

Funnel Down Defense⁠ ⁠https://coachcollins.podia.com/funnel-down-defense⁠ Main Topic: The Funnel Down Defense: The episode focuses on the Funnel Down Defense, a strategic defensive system designed to limit opponents' offensive capabilities by confining their movements to specific areas of the court. Steve explains the fundamental concepts, benefits, and implementation techniques of this defense, providing coaches with practical insights to improve their teams' defensive performance. Overview of the Funnel Down Defense: Concept: The Funnel Down Defense aims to keep the ball on the sides of the court, referred to as the "gutters," and prevent teams from reversing the ball. This strategy disrupts offensive flow and limits scoring opportunities. Volleyball Court Analogy: Steve uses the dimensions of a volleyball court to illustrate the concept. A basketball court is 50 feet wide, while a volleyball court is roughly 30 feet wide, leaving 10 feet on either side as the gutters. The goal is to keep the ball in these gutter areas and away from the middle. Key Components: Pinning: Pinning involves keeping the ball on the side of the court, outside the volleyball lines. This limits the opponent's ability to execute their offense effectively. Funneling: Funneling directs the ball handler towards the short corner or specific areas where the defense can trap or apply pressure. The aim is to force mid-range shots or difficult attempts behind the backboard. Trapping: Trapping occurs in designated areas, such as the short corner, to create turnovers and disrupt the opponent's rhythm. The defense seeks to funnel the ball into these traps to capitalize on defensive opportunities. Benefits of the Funnel Down Defense: Disruption: By confining the ball to the gutters and preventing ball reversals, the Funnel Down Defense disrupts the opponent's offensive strategies and reduces their scoring options. Turnover Generation: The system is designed to create turnovers through strategic traps and pressure in confined areas of the court. Adaptability: The defense can be adjusted based on the opponent's strengths, such as tweaking the approach when facing right-handed players or specific offensive threats. Implementation Techniques: Terminology: Steve introduces specific terms used in the Funnel Down Defense, such as "pin," "funnel," and "trap," which are essential for understanding and executing the system. Practice Drills: Coaches are encouraged to incorporate drills that emphasize these defensive concepts, teaching players to consistently apply pressure and force the ball into desired areas. Realistic Adjustments: While the goal is to keep the ball on the left side, Steve acknowledges that opponents will occasionally succeed in moving the ball to the right. The defense adjusts accordingly, applying the same principles to maintain control. Advanced Strategies: Continuous Improvement: Steve plans to delve deeper into the Funnel Down Defense over the next few months, sharing coaching calls and detailed strategies to help coaches refine their implementation of the system. Community Engagement: Listeners are invited to engage with Steve through email (steve@teachhoops.com) for further questions and personalized advice on implementing the Funnel Down Defense. Conclusion: The episode concludes with a recap of the Funnel Down Defense's core principles and its effectiveness in disrupting opponents' offenses. Steve emphasizes the importance of strategic pinning, funneling, and trapping to create a robust defensive system. He encourages coaches to explore additional resources on TeachHoops.com for continuous development and invites them to stay tuned for more in-depth discussions on this defensive strategy.
