Are you holding your business back because you are terrified of the word "no"? Most business owners actively avoid pitching themselves for guest spots, speaking gigs, or collaboration opportunities because they view a rejection as a deep personal failure. This fear creates a massive visibility bottleneck, leaving your brand stagnant while your competitors take center stage. In this episode of Podcasting Unlocked, Alesia discusses her current quest for 100 rejections and explains how having a strong pitching strategy will yield more yeses than you may think. This week, episode 291 of Podcasting Unlocked is about pitching for rejection and how failing will scare your visibility!In this episode of Podcasting Unlocked, I'm sharing the importance of having a strong strategy for pitching your podcast or business and actionable steps you can take right now to start your own 100 rejection challenge. I also chat about the following: Gamify Failure for Intentional Progress: Discover how setting a personal goal to collect 100 rejections completely detaches your mind from the anxiety of the outcome. By using a physical tracking system to celebrate a "no," you build the confidence needed to pitch massive, top-tier opportunities.The "Yes" Inevitability: Learn why chasing a high volume of rejections naturally guarantees a high volume of client wins and media features. When you increase your input, you inadvertently collect life-changing approvals that scale your platform visibility.Build a Systematic Pitching Strategy: Move away from sloppy, unorganized outreach. Learn how to map a clean workflow using a data-tracking system like ClickUp, Airtable, or a Google Sheet to manage host names, show criteria, and current pitch statuses.Respect Host Infrastructure and Boundaries: Stop spamming podcast inboxes. Discover why submitting pitches via a host's designated website form or asking for their preferred pitching protocol creates a stellar first impression and instantly prevents your email from getting blocked.Deploy Automated Follow-Up Systems: Understand that a lack of response is not a formal rejection. Learn how to build a 10-to-14-day automated reminder check-in that assumes the host is simply handling a busy production schedule, keeping your pitch top-of-mind without causing administrative fatigue.This month, I challenge you to step completely out of your comfort zone and collect just 5 rejections. Send that bold email, pitch that dream podcast, or ask for that high-level collaboration. You might be surprised by how many "yeses" are hiding behind the fear of a "no". Be sure to tune in to all the episodes to receive tons of practical tips on turning your podcast listeners into leads and to hear even more about the points outlined above. Thank you for listening!

Is your brain cluttered with every new tool, platform, and software someone told you that you absolutely need? Same. This episode started as a simple refresh of our tech stack after a listener wrote in asking what we actually use to run our businesses. Spoiler: the list is still shockingly short. But somewhere between Google Sheets and listing descriptions, we took a turn into AI territory, and y'all, we are not turning back. We walk through our bare-bones tech stack (yes, we still use a spreadsheet), talk honestly about how we are each using AI in our real estate businesses right now, and share why keeping things simple is not laziness, it is a strategy. We also get into SEO vs. AEO vs. GEO (yes, GEO is a real thing and it matters), what AI actually pulled up when Alissa searched herself, and the big announcement: Katy is teaching a monthly AI class inside the Hustle Humbly Community starting now. If you have been quietly panicking every time someone mentions AI, or if you have been using it already and want to go deeper, this episode is for you. Here's what we cover in this episode: The listener email that prompted this episode and our full simple tech stack answer Why simpler systems get used more consistently (and cost less money) Google Sheets, Trello, Canva, email, Google Drive, MLS, and yes, a little AI Transaction management and e-sign tools required by our brokerages How to qualify your tech choices based on the type of business you want to run SEO vs. AEO vs. GEO: what each one means and which one actually matters for your real estate business What happened when Alissa's seller looked her up with AI (hint: reviews matter a lot) How Alissa used ChatGPT to analyze multiple offers and review pre-approval letters Using AI to virtually stage photos, repaint rooms, and show sellers the vision How Katy used Claude to turn listing appointment notes and photos into a beautiful PDF checklist for a seller The Plaud device that listens to your appointments and summarizes them Why shiny tools do not fix broken habits Claude vs. ChatGPT: what is different and why Katy made the switch Projects, skills, and co-work inside Claude explained simply The new monthly AI class inside the Hustle Humbly Community for $25/month Why your Google reviews are your most important AI visibility tool right now Key Quotes & Takeaways: "Shiny objects feel productive, but they can delay real progress." Alissa "New tools do not fix broken habits. If you have systems in place that you're not using, a new system is not going to help you." Alissa "As long as you're running your business like a business and getting reviews from people, the internet and the AI are going to pick up on that." Alissa "You can not ask for more business if you are not taking care of the business you already have." Alissa "Using AI well will probably cut your task in half."

https://youtu.be/b_G8krkwKv8 Ganesh Krishnan, CEO of AiHello, is helping Amazon sellers automate advertising, improve profitability, and scale their businesses using AI. Driven by a mission to give entrepreneurs more freedom and enable them to build businesses around products they love, Ganesh shares how AI can eliminate repetitive work while allowing business owners to focus on strategy, innovation, and growth. In this conversation, Ganesh introduces The AiHello Ads Framework: Tap into the Wisdom of Crowds, Find the Right Keywords, Bid at the Right Level, Dynamically Adjust Bids, and Rinse and Repeat. He explains how AI can leverage historical marketplace data to identify profitable keywords, optimize bids automatically, and continuously improve campaign performance. Ganesh also discusses the dangers of AI hallucinations, why Amazon's incentives differ from sellers' incentives, how AI has transformed his own company's operations, and his vision for building zero-hallucination AI systems capable of advancing toward artificial superintelligence. — Build AI Superintelligence with Ganesh Krishnan  Good day, dear listeners. Steve Preda here, and welcome Ganesh Krishnan, the CEO of AiHello, an Amazon Ads automation company helping you grow your revenues, reduce work hours spent on ads management, and decrease your ad costs. Welcome to the show, Ganesh.  Thank you, Steve. Nice to meet you  Well, it’s great to have you here, and let’s jump right in. And my first question is, what is your personal ‘Why,’ and how are you manifesting it in AiHello?  So it started off with my thesis that we all need to do good towards the planet. A long time ago, I started having my own natural things, selling chemical-free, ecological, sustainable, good-for-the-planet, good-for-your-wallet, good-for-your-health items, and I would sell organic items. And eventually, what I realized was that it was taking a lot of my time marketing, managing it, changing the bids, doing everything. I started working more and more on AI because I’ve worked in AI commercially. I worked in AI in my industry. That was my job. So I said, “Why not use, apply that to my own startup, to my own industry for selling organic things?” And once I started selling it, some of my friends reached out and said, “Can we use your AI for our own businesses?” And I said, “Sure, why not?”  And then I started opening it up. And then one person came through and said, “Okay, let’s release it to the general public, see how it goes.” And then as we started earning money, I realized that I don’t need to do a job. I can have this startup, and I can help different people have their own lifestyle. You could have your own lifestyle. You could sell your own stuff that you like, e-commerce, usually on Amazon, and then we help you have your lifestyle. So this is my personal ‘Why’, is we need more equality. We need more people doing stuff they love rather than doing stuff they hate to do, and they hate to wake up and go to work. So do what you love. We are here to empower you.  Wow, that’s amazing. So you are empowering people to start their own e-commerce businesses on Amazon, and you help them with AI tools to get up to speed and compete with the big boys.  That is correct.  Yeah. I love it. So on your LinkedIn profile, you mentioned that you are, I don’t know what the word was that you used, but something to do with superintelligence, AI superintelligence. So what is it that you are doing, and what is your vision of how AI superintelligence can be tapped into?  It’s a very long topic. But to start off with, we used the old form of AI, which is a lot of regression, a lot of statistics, a lot of big data learning, and a lot of neural networks, if you felt fancy. And then LLMs became a huge thing. And we launched AiHello probably six or seven years ago. LLMs became a big thing two or three years ago. And it was pretty fancy. It was very good. It made life easy for us. But we cannot use it within AiHello to give it to clients, primarily because LLMs start hallucinating once you go past a certain context. The problem with hallucination is that it exponentially becomes larger and larger. Because if the previous thesis is wrong, if your previous hypothesis is wrong, then it builds on top of it, and it builds the wrong things.  Hallucination exponentially becomes worse. And when it comes to finance, when it comes to ads, and when you’re working with sensitive data, this can be catastrophic. So you cannot use these large language models for finance, for situations where you need precise data, and especially when you have lots of context. It’s going to lose the context of the first part. Just because you mentioned something at the start of the conversation doesn’t mean it’s not important. It is critical. As humans, we understand what is the most critical part of a conversation, and then we keep that in mind. But LLMs, because of context limitations, just keep on going and start hallucinating.  So a few months ago, we came up with the idea that we could use something like a large language model, but not based on the transformer model. And we could base it on data so that there is almost zero hallucination. So instead of building weights, we build it based on data. And we launched this. We don’t use it on AiHello, but we decided to use it on an email service because we have a lot of emails. We process a lot of emails for clients. We process a lot of emails for specialists. So we could use the zero-hallucination approach within emails, and if it is successful, then we can put it into AiHello.  And we can, of course, release it as an API as well. So this is going to set the basis of artificial superintelligence because what is stopping us right now from reaching or breaching that wall of artificial superintelligence is this hallucination. And of course, there is also logic. LLMs are pretty stup*d. They don’t understand. You can teach them, they learn, but they do not question what you teach them. They always take it on blind faith.  Yeah. Wow. That is genius. I love it. You are going to un-hallucinate AI. And if it stops hallucinating, essentially it becomes a lot more powerful and scalable. AI becomes scalable, or this whole process becomes scalable. That’s fascinating. So your ‘Why’, your mission, is to empower all these people to run their businesses. Do you have a framework for this that you could describe in three to five steps? How do you get someone up and running with their own business on an e-commerce platform? Or do you have any other framework that you could share with the audience? Something simple that they may be able to benefit from? One of the caveats of using AI is that it needs a lot of data. So if you’re just starting out with your e-commerce business, you need to put more of your human intelligence, more of your gut instinct, more of your thoughts, and more of your emotions into building it out. And once you have built up enough data, then you can put it into AiHello and start automating it. So what I would say, if you’re starting an e-commerce business, is hire a specialist who can help you launch off the ground.  Do a bit of the hypothesis work, do a bit of the analysis, and then come to AiHello and start automating it. You can only start automating once you have a good idea of how things work for you. And finding how things work for you is something you need to do on your own. It’s like you can’t start running, or you can’t start driving a car, until you learn how to crawl and until you learn how to walk.  Okay. So basically, it’s the age-old innovation thing that you have to innovate something on your own, and then you can scale it with AI. That is correct.  Yeah. So let’s say I came up with some kind of formula, concept, or product that is currently not being promoted, and I believe it would work. Or maybe I’ve already tested it and I want to scale it. I want to get on Amazon and sell it there. What can you do for me? What are the steps for me to be successful with AiHello’s help? So the first thing when you select a product, is: what are the keywords for it? What keywords do you use for that product? The second would be: what are the bids for that product? For each keyword, what is the right bid to put up? And then you have other things like budgeting. Do you change the bid depending on the time of day? Do you change the bid in total? Those are the things that you need to keep adjusting continuously.  With AiHello, we automatically harvest the right keywords for your product. We change the bid. We optimize the bid. We also do dayparting, where you can change the bid depending on the time of day. So there are different things that you can use AI for. You could certainly do all of it manually, but it’ll probably take you days or weeks to do what AI can do in a couple of minutes.  So a couple of minutes. But doesn’t the AI also need traffic data to be able to define things?  Yeah. So one of the other things about AiHello is that, because we have the wisdom of crowds, if you come up with a keyword, we know exactly how that keyword is going to perform. As you say, you have the wisdom of crowds. Can you extrapolate what you’ve experienced with other products and other customers onto a new product that doesn’t yet have a lot of traffic? Is this what you mean by the wisdom of crowds? Or what do you mean by the wisdom of crowds?  Let me give you an example. Let’s assume you want to sell coffee, and you go to our platform and say, “This is my product. It’s coffee. Help me sell it.” So what we do is, we know this is coffee. What are the keywords around it that are going to help sell it? Because we’ve sold other coffee products, we know that organic coffee sells well. We know coffee in the morning sells well. Black coffee sells well. Caffeine sells well.  And we also know, based on the previous performance of other keywords, what a good bid is for each keyword. If you don’t know the keywords, then of course you have to spend time researching them. And if you don’t know the bids, then you have to spend time researching what bid to put in. But we do all the research for you, and you put it in. And the second part, the bigger part, is that if the bid doesn’t work out, if you’re not selling, then we increase the bid automatically. If you are losing money, then we decrease the bid automatically. So that bid optimization is a critical part of AiHello.  Yeah. We use Amazon ads to promote my books. And yes, it takes a lot of skill to find the keywords, eliminate the negative keywords, adjust the bids, have the right bids, and avoid overspending or underspending. But Amazon also does much of the machine learning. So what is it that Amazon does, and what is it that you have to do? And why doesn’t Amazon do what you have to do?  The most critical piece of information to keep in mind is that your aims and objectives are the opposite of Amazon’s aims and objectives. Amazon’s aim is to make money, and your job is to make money. You don’t care if Amazon makes money or not, and Amazon doesn’t care if you make money or not. So when you put up a bid, when you run ads, Amazon will maximize that ad spend, whatever it is. In some ways, it’s like a casino.  You go to a casino, and the job of the casino is to win money from you, and your job is to win money from the casino. Ads have become a lot like gambling nowadays. You throw money into it. You expect to make money. Ninety percent of people lose money, and they give up. And Amazon always finds fresh sellers to move on. You cannot depend on Amazon because Amazon is not on your side.  Yeah, that makes perfect sense. Yeah, I always thought that on some platforms it was really difficult to make money with ads. Facebook, I think, is so competitive that it’s probably very difficult to make money. I know a lot of people who have spent a lot of money on Facebook, but I don’t know very many who have figured out a formula that continues to work. Okay. So you’ve helped someone find their keywords, the right bids, and how to adjust those bids. But what we’ve found is that at some point, ads die, and then we have to switch things up. It actually happens quite frequently that you have to create new campaigns and new ads. So what’s the dynamic there? How do you optimize so that you’re not still supporting ads that don’t work anymore, and you switch at the right point?  So when we say ads, it’s not technically the campaigns. A campaign is just a container for all of your ads. You have products inside it, and you have keywords inside it. So a campaign is made up of products and keywords. And the question is, when you say ads die, did the keywords die? Then you need to add new keywords, right? You always have to keep adding new keywords and testing new keywords. It’s a continuous job of trying to find the right keywords for your book or your product, and then optimizing the bids constantly to make sure that you’re profitable.  You have to make sure that your ads don’t die because of a lack of fresh keywords. And of course, there’s always a limit to the number of keywords you can add because each product has a limited number of keywords that people are searching for. Maybe there’s a long-tail keyword that’s going to make money, but there’s not enough search volume. Or maybe there’s a high-volume search keyword, but it’s not profitable for you. So you have to figure out what the right strategy is for you. Eventually, if your product is good, you’ll make money. If your product is not good, you won’t make money. That’s the bottom line. With ads, you quickly find out if your product…  So essentially, it’s a cyclical thing. So you find the keywords, you figure out the right bids, you adjust the bids, and then you have to find new keywords and keep doing this.  Yeah.  So why do keywords go stale? Do people not search for certain things anymore?  There could be multiple reasons for it. One reason is that a competitor has come in and taken your search volume. And you have to know: are you losing search volume? Are you gaining search volume? Has your search volume dropped off? The second reason is that people are not searching for that keyword anymore. Is it out of fashion? The third is: are you underbidding? Is the bid too low? Again, you would know by the number of impressions. Have the impressions dropped off?  If the impressions have dropped off, is it because of a competitor? If it’s not because of a competitor, are people searching less? Are your bids too low? If the search volume is the same, are people clicking less? Why are they clicking less? Is it your images? Is it your product? Is your product no longer in fashion? I mean, I don’t know. Maybe a few months ago, fidget spinners were really in fashion, and nowadays no one uses them. So those things go out of fashion.  Yeah. The spinners, I remember. They’ve been out of fashion for a while.  Yeah.  Yeah, that’s fascinating. So it’s a never-ending cycle of innovation and figuring out what works and what doesn’t work. So let me ask you this: What drives growth in your business?  Most of the growth is… There are different ways to put it. Four years ago, we used to create a lot of blogs. We used to create lots of content. We used to create lots of YouTube videos. And then ChatGPT came along. If you ask kids now, “Do you Google that?” They don’t know what Google is. They really don’t know what Google is. And that’s not a cliché. It’s surprising. They’ll be like, “What Google?” Everything goes through ChatGPT.  So for us, growth went from Google to ChatGPT. And we didn’t spend enough time optimizing for LLMs on our site. So what drove growth before was blogs and YouTube. And what drives growth now is large language models like ChatGPT and Claude. People just ask ChatGPT, “What do I do about this on Amazon?” It recommends solutions, and then we go through them.  So how do you leverage large language models or AI applications?  This was one of the biggest boosts to our company. We managed to set the processes right. We managed to create the templates. We managed to bring structure to our company. Development work has become ten times faster. The turnaround is ten times faster. We’re able to release features quickly. We’re able to find bugs in our existing code quickly. There are a lot of things going on. If I were to say that our company is no longer the same company it was even a year ago, that would not be an exaggeration. It would be the truth. What we were a year ago is not at all what we are right now.  So in what way did you change? Is it coding that accelerated and changed everything? I mean, in what other ways did you change as a company?  So the code is all done with AI first. Our developers use AI. They put in the prompt, they check the results. There is a second developer who checks whether everything is okay and whether everything is done. And then finally there’s QA, and then we push it to staging. We used to do roughly one-month or forty-five-day sprints. Now we do weekly sprints. So it has gone four times faster. The biggest hurdle for us was managing clients and how we manage them. We never had any structure.  So we talked a lot with ChatGPT. We talked a lot about what the right way was to bring structure and accountability into the system. We managed to set up all the software required for accountability. It helped us fix those issues. It created structure. It created accountability for all the people, and then we implemented that. Finally, the last one, which was the most debatable, is that we require a lot of content. We require a lot of graphics. We require a lot of videos for clients on Amazon. I actually went to buy something on Amazon a few days back, and what was puzzling was that when I zoomed in on the images, you could see they were AI-generated because they all had these silly AI mistakes—spelling mistakes, random words.  So almost everything on Amazon right now, all the images, are kind of AI-generated. It’s hard to blame them. We ourselves use AI for a lot of the images. We make sure we don’t have the silly mistakes, but we do use AI as well. So the turnaround time for graphics is faster because of AI as well. Though some clients do complain that they don’t like AI-generated assets. And if a person looks a bit too AI-generated, they just reject it outright. So that is the most debatable part of it. But overall, our company is called AiHello. It’s AiHello. And if we don’t say hello to AI, then we’re not AiHello.  Yeah. Love it. I love the head and the one arm.  Yes.  The hello, and that’s it.  Yeah.  So what is one thing that you’re actively trying to figure out in your business right now? We are a remote-first company, and I’m struggling to bring about accountability among all the team members. We do have a good number of employees. Ninety percent of our employees are good. Ten percent still have accountability issues. And for me, that is a bit of a hurdle. It is a bit of a challenge to push those people who are dragging their feet about AI. Yeah. Because they are not comfortable with AI. They want to do what they are good at and don’t want to do something new.  There is also a bit of hesitation that they might lose their jobs because of AI, although we’re not planning to let go of anyone. Rather, we are hiring more people because we’re able to grow faster. There is an old saying that companies won’t go extinct because of AI, but companies that don’t use AI will go extinct because of AI. Because we are using AI a lot, there is a chance for us to scale, for us to expand significantly. And I want to tap into this advantage and grow. I want to hire more people, and I want to grow. I don’t want to let people go.  So this is a very good opportunity. You hear about Coinbase letting people go. You hear about Facebook letting people go because of AI. And I think those are all nonsensical excuses. Those companies are not growing very well, and they are blaming AI for letting people go, which I think is absolutely nonsensical. There is a very good opportunity for people to grow and for companies to grow using AI and increase their hiring. If you’re letting people go because of AI, it’s just a nonsensical excuse.  So what do you think is the mental hang-up for people? What prevents better AI adoption or faster AI adoption? A long time ago, when computers were being introduced into many industries, I remember there were huge protests because people thought computers would take away jobs. And it did happen. People did lose jobs because of computers. There were many people pushing papers who lost their jobs. And a lot of people refused to learn about computers because they said, “This is nonsensical. I can do it better by hand.” Can you imagine telling people right now that it’s better to do things by hand than to use a computer?  I mean, if you want to do calculations, please don’t use Excel or Google Sheets. Use a pen and paper and tell me you can do it better. It would be absurd to think that way. But at that time, people really did have the mentality that it was better to do things by hand than with Excel. Now, the AI revolution is probably a thousand or a million times bigger than that. And you can drag your feet. There will always be people who drag their feet and say, “I can do it better. AI is just nonsensical.” And sure, some of that is true. But the overwhelming majority of tasks are going to be done extremely well with AI.  And it’s not just large language models. It’s everything. Regression analysis, data analytics, big data analytics, forecasting, calculations. I’m not even talking about transformer models. I’m talking about everything related to AI. So much can be automated and done by AI that if you’re not involved with it, you’ll get left behind, just like the people who didn’t use computers. Do you feel like people have to be highly educated to be able to use AI? Or can people with less formal education benefit from it as well?  I don’t think it has anything to do with education. I think the learning curve for AI is smaller than the learning curve for computers. If you’re already using computers, you can just install a command-line interface and have things running. Actually, you can go to ChatGPT and ask some questions, and you can build something. But if you want to build serious applications, you can use a command-line interface and build them out. I think the learning curve is probably just a couple of hours to become proficient with these tools. I’m thinking more about this: As AI tools develop and take many of the routine, repeatable tasks off our shoulders, doesn’t that mean we will spend more of our time on high-level thinking and orchestration? And won’t that require some kind of mental ability to do that? It requires you to understand context, understand the implications of things, and be able to connect the dots. So that’s what I mean. The people who can really use AI tools have this higher level of awareness and thinking. They can combine ideas and create new things. But are there AI tools that people with less advanced analytical skills can also use? Absolutely. And you’re 100% right. You’re 101% right. This is what I’ve been advocating for a very long time. Don’t spend your time doing mundane, repetitive daily activities that can be automated. Let AI handle them. You should focus on the things AI cannot do right now, which is human-level intelligence: Strategizing. Planning. Working on the bigger-picture tasks. So you’re 100% right, and that’s the direction we should be moving in. And this brings me back to the point I made earlier: You should do what you love. The things you don’t love, the repetitive tasks, should be done by AI.  Yeah. Love it. So what is your vision, ultimately, for AiHello?  So my vision for AiHello goes beyond AiHello. We have something called HalZero, which is the engine we want to put behind AiHello. It’s a zero-hallucination LLM. And we are working toward making it happen. We plan to release an API for it soon. If it does happen, then we would probably have a model that can take in data and answer general-knowledge questions with zero hallucination. And we’re building it based on how the human brain works. The human brain is not one-dimensional. ChatGPT is one-dimensional. Transformer models are one-dimensional.  You give them data, they run it through the transformer model—the encoder and decoder—and then they give you an answer. But the human brain is built in layers. What we call the lizard brain sits at the base, and as you go higher, things become more and more complex. So the brain is information and action, and everything is filtered through it. Then we act on the filtered result. Machine learning models right now do not have these kinds of filters. They have something similar, which is called chain of thought, but that’s really thinking out loud. This kind of reasoning should exist within the latent space of the machine learning model. It should be built into the model itself.  I’ll give you an example. If you had been taught all your life that the sun is green, and tomorrow you woke up in Virginia, went outside, and saw that the sun was yellow, you’d say: “Oh my God, I’ve been lied to all my life. The sun isn’t green.” You would question what you had been taught based on a single observation. But if a machine had been trained for years that the sun is green, and then it saw that the sun was yellow, it might conclude: “The sun is wrong today because I’ve been taught that the sun is green.” The real test of intelligence is this: Can it question its training data? And the answer is no. It won’t, because it has been trained on that data. It has been trained on those tokens.  Yeah. So that’s AI superintelligence? The ability to question the training data?  That is correct. Yeah. So we build it based on connections. How strong is this connection? How many people have stated this fact? What is my own observation? Which observation is stronger? There is always conflict. In the human brain, there is always a conflict between what people say and what we think. Then our logical brain chooses what is usually the best answer. That is how we have a collective consciousness. We also have a personal consciousness. We always have to decide which one is best.  Love it. Well, that’s great. So if you’re running a business and you need to sell a product, and you want to figure out how to be successful on Amazon, how to leverage your ads, and how not to overspend, where should you go? How can people get in touch with you, Ganesh, and your team? And what’s the first step for listeners?  You can send me an email at ganesh@aihello.com. You can connect with me on LinkedIn. I’m always available, and I’m happy to have a chat with you.  All right. So if you’re listening out there and you’re in e-commerce, or you want to get into e-commerce, and you don’t know how to leverage all the tools that are out there, don’t forget: Amazon is in the business of making money, not necessarily making your business profitable. So you can use AiHello to help you. Reach out to Ganesh on LinkedIn and get your team involved. And if you enjoyed listening to this episode, make sure you check back every week because I have successful entrepreneurs sharing their ideas—or at least some of the good ones—with you. So thanks, Ganesh, for coming.  Thank you, Steve.  And thank you for listening. Important Links: Ganesh's LinkedIn Ganesh's website Ganesh's email: ganesh@aihello.com

Most real estate team leaders and broker-owners only look at their financials once or twice a year — and it almost always happens during slow season, when the numbers look their worst and emotions are running high. In this episode, Brian Icenhower breaks down why that annual P&L review sets leaders up for reactive, costly decisions — and introduces the monthly snapshot system that keeps you grounded in your numbers all year long. In this episode, you'll learn: Why reviewing your real estate brokerage financial model only at tax time leads to reactive decision-making How slow-season emotions drive team leaders to cut agents and restructure splits unnecessarily What a monthly snapshot is — and how a simple Google Sheet can transform how you lead your business The specific metrics every real estate team and brokerage should track each month, including GCI, cost of sales, and net income How tracking cost of sales as a percentage of GCI helps you understand what you're actually paying per transaction Why economies of scale matter when evaluating agent count and commission structure How to build a business owner mindset and stop reacting emotionally to seasonal slowdowns About Brian Icenhower: Brian Icenhower is a nationally recognized real estate coach, trainer, and former broker-owner with decades of experience helping agents, team leaders, and broker-owners build profitable, scalable businesses. He is the founder of Icenhower Coaching & Training and the author of multiple real estate training resources available at therealestatetrainer.com. If you're leading a team or running a brokerage, this episode is a must-listen. The monthly snapshot isn't a complicated system — but it might be the most important habit you can build to protect your business through every season of the market.

Der Börsengang von SpaceX ist kein normales IPO, sondern ein Stresstest für Anleger, ETFs und Indexanbieter. Deshalb dominiert er den ersten Teil unserer Q&A-Reihe: Tobias Kramer beantwortet eure Fragen zu SpaceX, Starlink, American Tower, DAX und FAZ-Index, Gesundheitsaktien und Depot-Transparenz – nüchtern, mit Zahlen, ohne Hype. SpaceX kommt zu 135 bis 162 Dollar je Aktie an die Börse, das entspricht einer Bewertung von 1,8 bis 2,1 Billionen US-Dollar. Neue Class-A-Aktionäre halten danach zusammen gerade einmal 11,5 Prozent der Stimmrechte, während Elon Musk über seine Class-B-Aktien mit zehnfachem Stimmrecht rund 85 Prozent der Stimmen kontrolliert. Tobias rechnet einen bewusst optimistischen Bull Case durch (400 Mrd. Umsatz und 30 Prozent Nettomarge bis 2033) – und landet selbst dann bei einer unbequemen Antwort auf die Frage: Wie viel Zukunft ist hier schon bezahlt? Die Themen im Überblick: ▪️ Starlink Mobile als Angriff auf Deutsche Telekom, T-Mobile US und den globalen Mobilfunkmarkt – Chance, Schwachstelle und Frequenz-Politik ▪️ Nasdaq 100 vs. S&P 500: Warum die Fast-Track-Aufnahme von SpaceX Kritik verdient – und der S&P 500 mit seinen Regeln überzeugt ▪️ American Tower: Hat der Funkturm-REIT gegen Starlink noch eine Zukunft? ▪️ SpaceX shorten? Warum Tobias dringend davon abrät – Stichwort Lock-up-Fristen und Optionsprämien ▪️ DAX oder FAZ-Index: Welcher deutsche Index gehört ins Depot? ▪️ Gesundheitsaktien (Abbott, Medtronic, Pfizer, Boston Scientific): Übersehener Sektor oder Value-Falle? ▪️ Depot-Einblick: Der Link zur Google-Sheet-Übersicht steht in den Timestamps Unterm Strich eine klare Absage an Bewertungsromantik: Große Visionen reichen nicht, wenn Anleger heute schon den Gewinn von übermorgen bezahlen. Schreibt in die Kommentare, wie ihr den SpaceX-Case rechnet: 2 Billionen gerechtfertigt, 60 Prozent Rückschlagpotenzial – oder seht ihr den Weg zu 10 Billionen? Und wenn ihr solche Q&A-Folgen wollt: Abonniert den Kanal und meldet euch für unseren Mail-Verteiler auf echtgeld.tv an – dort laufen Umfragen, Fragerunden und Verlosungen.

See what the team at The Successful Bookkeeper has on right now → AI is moving fast, and the bookkeeping profession is squarely in its path — but not in the way most people fear. In this episode, Michael Palmer sits down with AI strategist and educator Benjamin Tasker to talk about what the shift actually looks like on the ground, which skills will separate bookkeepers who thrive from those who stall, and how to start building your own AI system without a data science degree. Chapters [00:00] Welcome and Ben's Background [03:15] From Data Science to AI Education [08:00] AI's Real Impact on Bookkeeping [12:00] Human Judgment as the Key Check [15:30] Skills That Separate Thriving Bookkeepers [21:00] Data, Systems, and AI Strategy [25:00] Opportunities to Move Up the Value Chain [29:00] First Steps for Integrating AI [32:00] Client Expectations and Transparency [35:00] Fear, Mindset, and Where to Find Ben AI Will Elevate Bookkeeping, Not Replace It Ben is direct about the headline fear: bookkeepers are not going away. "AI will help elevate what a bookkeeper does," he says. The repetitive work — transaction coding, receipt capture, anomaly detection, drafting reports — gets absorbed by AI, which frees up the bookkeeper to move from data entry to data judgment. Think less time in the books and more time coaching clients on their financial pain points. AICPA and Intuit both point in the same direction: the future of the role looks a lot more like analytics and advisory than data input. The Two Skill Lanes Every Bookkeeper Should Know Ben references the World Economic Forum's skills taxonomy, which divides skills into two tracks. AI skills — analytical thinking, systems thinking, coding — pay a premium today, but AI will eventually encroach on those. Human skills — communication, empathy, leadership — are undervalued right now but will command a premium as AI can only mimic, never genuinely replace, them. "AI can put on a facade of empathy and compassion, but it really can't have it because it's robotic." For bookkeepers, the practical focus areas are AI supervision (checking outputs rigorously), advisory thinking, digital and data fluency, and transparent client communication. The Human in the Loop Is Not Optional Ben's background in healthcare data — building algorithms to predict sepsis risk from bedside monitors — gives him a sharp view on why human validation matters. A small data error that goes unchecked can cascade into a much larger problem. "A mistake, especially for a small business owner, could cost tens of thousands of dollars." Bookkeepers already understand this: the work is either right or it isn't. That precision mindset is exactly what responsible AI use demands, and it is a genuine competitive advantage for practitioners who carry it into their AI workflows. Data Is the Oil — Build a System, Not Just a Stack of Tools One of Ben's clearest points: buying an AI tool is not an AI strategy. The framework he outlines is straightforward — start with your data (client records, call transcripts, templates, Google Sheets), run it through a system you build and control, apply AI to it, then validate and iterate. "Just because you buy an AI tool doesn't mean you have an AI strategy or even an AI business." He encourages bookkeepers to build their own processing systems rather than relying entirely on third-party integrations that can change without warning. Start small — something as simple as having AI draft follow-up emails from call transcripts is a low-risk, high-value first step. Practical First Steps and Client Communication For bookkeepers ready to start, Ben's advice is to pick a low-stakes problem, solve it, and let that build confidence. Use AI to profile prospective clients from call transcripts, automate follow-up reminders, or create a client-facing dashboard from existing data. On the client side, transparency is non-negotiable: communicate that you are using AI, explain how it benefits them, and teach them how to give better inputs so they get better outputs. "By providing inputs and encouraging your customers to use AI to show them the benefits of it, they're going to become less resistant over time." That kind of teaching deepens the client relationship well beyond what traditional bookkeeping alone can offer.

There's a lot to keep track of when you're releasing music. Release dates. ISRCs. Lyrics. Artwork. Press photos. Streaming links. Download links. Metadata. Songwriter information. And somehow, years later, you still need to find all of it again. In this episode, I share one of the most useful systems I've ever created for managing releases: Release Central.   PRESENTED BY HELLBENDER VINYL - www.hellbendervinyl.com   Release Central is a simple Google Sheet that acts as a centralized home base for every album, EP, or single you release. It's where I keep all the important information related to a project—from metadata and promotional assets to release schedules and private links. I've used this system for years across my own releases and recently started teaching it to my Labelmates VIP coaching clients, who have found it incredibly helpful. Download your copy:

It's mostly impossible to figure out the Bucks right now. Giannis seems likely to be gone by next season, but Kevin Porter Jr might also be gone. Does that mean it's Ryan Rollins's team now?

WATCH ▶️ ⁠Watch this episode on YouTube⁠ ***   EPISODE DESCRIPTION In this episode, I'm joined by Scott Sarai.   Scott is a Mortgage Broker at SGS Mortgages from Maple Ridge, BC, who's a part of Team Wiley at Tango while also still being a full-time firefighter.   After spending time as a broker, Scott started a fulfillment business working for other brokers, which ended up eroding his passion for mortgages. With plans to exit the industry entirely, a game-changing conversation with Ryan led to giving his business 6 more months of life. Now with a renewed mindset, mentorship, and an innovative approach, Scott's revenue jumped from $25,000 in 2024, to over $350,000 in 2025, while also revitalizing his passion for brokering and positioning himself for success in the future.   What makes Scott's story genuinely compelling is how deeply human it feels. He battled imposter syndrome, rebuilt his Instagram from scratch after Meta restricted his original account, and learned to delegate so he could focus exclusively on high-value work instead of low-level tasks. He tracked over 86,000 outreach interactions and logged 48,714 checkmarks in a daily Google Sheet, because consistent tracked activity directly correlates to revenue.   Done is better than perfect runs through everything Scott shares here, from launching email campaigns quickly to batch-recording fifteen to thirty-five reels in under two hours monthly. His story is a reminder that sustainable success is built, not stumbled into.   Scott is here to discuss:   → How he 13x his revenue from $25,000 in 2024, to over $346,000 in 2025, by having over 85,000 touch points with clients.   → The 4 things that make him a successful broker - speed, execution, who not how, and being a student of the game.   → What a broker should do in the next 30 days to be successful.   → His daily social media outreach strategy, why he started a YouTube channel, and why he created a new Instagram account.   → Investing in coaching, outsourcing early, and how action beats perfection.   → Overcoming jealousy in the industry and if he finally feels like he belongs.   → Why it's ok to be bored in your business and his vision for the next 2 years. ***   Scott's 1st Appearance on The Mortgage Game in Episode 271: https://www.iamryanwiley.com/271-how-he-10xd-his-business-the-27m-to-40m-broker/ ***

Episode #310! This week I sit down with Jennifer Roscoe and Shrishti Vaish, two of the key organizers behind Outlier 2026, the annual data visualization conference hosted by the Data Visualization Society. We talked about what it takes to pull off a fully virtual, global conference, and why going virtual this year was a strategic choice, not a compromise. Jennifer and Shrishti walked me through the conference dates (June 23–26), the brand-new pre-conference data challenge in partnership with the United Nations, and the exciting new feedback and career clinic designed to give attendees a safe space for honest critique and professional growth. We also get into the behind-the-scenes logistics: the 30-person volunteer committee, the technology stack (mostly Google Sheets, if you were wondering), and the delicate art of playing Tetris with 34 talks across a 12-hour global schedule. Whether you're a first-time attendee or a longtime DVS community member, this episode is your guide to making the most of Outlier 2026.Keywords: data visualization, data viz, Outlier conference, Data Visualization Society, DVS, data viz conference, Jennifer Roscoe, Shrishti Vaish, virtual conference, data storytelling, dataviz community, conference planning, career clinic, information is beautiful, data challenge, United Nations data, PolicyViz podcastSubscribe to the PolicyViz Podcast wherever you get your podcasts.Check out the 2026 Outlier Conference.Follow me on Instagram, LinkedIn, Substack, Twitter, Website, YouTubeEmail: jon@policyviz.com

A woman shows a community how to help women business owners bring AI into their work strategically, in a language that feels like theirs. Her mission: no woman should have to figure AI out alone now. This is big, because you know every day you hear about AI doing new things, and every day there’s a new type of AI, whether it’s the three different divisions of Claude or Nano Banana or one of many, many AI types, and each one you know is known to do something better than any of the others, so you know it can get really confusing, especially if you want it to help you out in, in your business, you know, AI isn’t just Chat GPT anymore. Her method starts with the pain, not the tools. She does not ask a business owner which AI to buy; she asks which task is killing her this month, today. She walks us through how she built her own AI-run business and where any solo practitioner should actually start. Welcome to the show, Ronnie.    Ronnie Toronto 1:59  Hi, welcome, and thank you for the opportunity to be here with you and share about some of my work.  How Ronnie Got Started with AI   Dr. Barbara Hales 2:10  How did you get involved in AI to begin with?  Ronnie Toronto 2:15  Um, as I think, as like everyone else, I saw AI ads and AI all around the news and the platform at Instagram and Facebook, and like I felt left behind, and because like I knew a CGPT, but I didn’t know how really to use it, and everybody say like, oh, it’s the best thing, it’s it’s helped me in my business, so I just started to explore more and more, and read, and to take process, and I like surround myself with people that use AI as a victim and not only as a tool, and and then from that moment and on I realized that I can change my entire business with AI.    Life Before and After AI Automation    Dr. Barbara Hales 3:10  Tell us, what a week in your life looked like before AI, and what it looks like now.    Ronnie Toronto 3:18  So, before AI, I was doing all of the admin tasks, and all of all of the tests, actually alone, like I did everything manually, and if it’s to spend like between 10 to 15 hours a week on on building reports for clients, and and now I can actually say that, like, AI build me the same report, the exact same system, but even better to send to clients without me needing to operate a single file, like he can do everything for me, and it’s actually same between 10 to 15 hours a week, only for one task.  The First Task, Ronnie Automated  Dr. Barbara Hales 4:09  What was the very first task you handed over to AI, and what happened? Walk us through that, I    Ronnie Toronto 4:28  What was the first task that I gave to AI to do for me, because I thought it’s like taking a lot of time and a lot of effort, and to actually uploading the same, the same numbers through Google Sheets manually all day long take me a lot of time, and so I think that was my biggest pain point, and but I didn’t, I mean to say that I didn’t automate my. Our business, because I do believe in humanity, and I do believe that we need to do some stuff in the business, because in them the client chooses me because of who I am, and not because the AI can do it, and I chose four pain points to automate it, and there are 1000 in a business.    AI Morning Brief and Email Prioritization    Dr. Barbara Hales 5:25  You get something called a morning brief in your inbox every day. Tell us what it is, who built it, and how it changed your mornings.    Ronnie Toronto 5:42  Okay. I don’t know if a lot of people in the podcast know about what is it, but you can use clothes and clothes have a clothes and you have code a cloud code, so I’m using Power right now, and I build a skill like you have your own system that you teach her how to be new, so I build my co-work to do the same thing that I’m doing manually, so every morning when I wake up, Co-op already builds for me the priorities that I have on my email, like who is the most important to answer, who I can actually ignore, and so he, he built for me this, and that I can see what is the urgent stuff in my business, what I need to answer, and I don’t need to just go through 40 or 20 or even five emails anymore. It’s just in, and when I wake up and open the computer, it’s already building for me. It’s already showing me what I need to do next in the morning, without me having to start reading and exploring what was happening when I closed the computer last night.    Building an AI Stack Beyond ChatGPT    Dr. Barbara Hales 7:01  Most people think AI just means ChatGPT. What is actually in your AI stack, and what does each tool do for you?    Ronnie Toronto 7:16  And so I was starting to say that what I’m using isn’t a tool, and it’s not that I’m trying, like, to sell another product, but when you’re using AI at JGPT, you’re using one tool, like you pay $30 months for one tool, they do one thing, but the co-work that I’m using, the AI that I’m using right now, it’s a system that you pay, that you pay, you pay $20 but $20 a month, but you can have unlimited tool that, like, is built for you, and that you can operate with your entire business, and to reduce the amount of time that you spend on the same repetitive test, but is one tool that do every, like, it’s one tool, but inside with unlimited rule. Yeah, it’s magic. What is    Common AI Mistakes Business Owners Make    Dr. Barbara Hales 8:28  What is the biggest mistake you see business owners making with AI right now?    Ronnie Toronto 8:40  I think the biggest one is that people that business actually they are not replaced by AI but being separated by AI because again it’s easy to use JGP team to ask him the same question but in the end you need to build operation, you need to build AI that is like your team, and you need to ask yourself not how I’m using AI, it’s actually how AI helping me to replace my pain point to reduce my repetitive test, like how he’s walking without me needed to touch the computer, need to use or ask him over and over again the same question, because I’m not asking for my tool to build me report, he know the co-work, know to send an email to each client every Sunday, and every, and every month, actually, like it’s weekly, it’s daily, weekly, and monthly. He knows how to send the reports along without me needing to tell him, “Oh, you need to send reports. He knows how to open Google Sheets. How to build the same report that clients like to see and send it to the mail with the sentence that and summarize with text that the clients want and like to see. What is one    How to Avoid AI Overwhelm    Dr. Barbara Hales 10:17  What is the biggest thing that could save them from the mistakes that they’re making with AI,    Ronnie Toronto 10:30  I would say that they need to stop using it as a tool, they need to start exploring more than only chp and ask themselves what can help me to reduce the time that I’m spending or or even to eat, like I know it’s sometimes very nervous, like it’s become nervous like to just using Instagram or Facebook or LinkedIn, and see the ads popping up with AI, and then become confused where to start, what to do. So just stop anything. What is your biggest pain point? And from that point on, explore what can help you replace this pain point with a tool with AI.    The Vision Behind One Woman Show    Dr. Barbara Hales 11:26  Tell us about the one-woman show that you have. I understand that’s a community.    Ronnie Toronto 11:33  Yes, so one more show is for women in business and a movement that turns women business owner from traditional operation using AI as a tool into AI powered operate with their team running in the background, and so it’s helping business women to see there is more, and like I was attending in a lecture a few months ago, and 90 90% of the people in the room were women, and most of them knew what is AI, but none of them know how to actually use it. So I realized that there is a gap on the market, and it’s important that business women out there will become one and actually understand how to speak with AI in more in a feminine language, language in a way that we can understand how to use it, and I didn’t find it, so I realized that if I didn’t find it, maybe I can open one and help other women out there to understand a bit more about AI and how to use it correctly,    What Happens Inside the One-Woman Show Community    Dr. Barbara Hales 12:46  So what happens inside the One Moment Show,    Ronnie Toronto 12:52  And so right now, I am trying to share as much information as I can about how I automated my business, and most of it is for free. I even launch a small, a small course that actually explore how to, how to use the co-work, how to do the same thing that I did to automate, to automate like 70% of my business right now, and I’m trying to share all the time my progress, and my system, and how to use different tools out there, and what is more, what is more fit for you and for your business, and yeah, how to operate AI.    Future Plans for Coaching and Community Growth    Dr. Barbara Hales 13:39  So, will there be a coaching program in the future?    Ronnie Toronto 13:43  Oh, yes, I hope I can do a Zoom call, like once a week, so more and more women can share and explore how they use it, and I can give some tips and actually talk with business owners out there. Yeah, something that I really, really want to do    Two Practical AI Tips for Business Owners    Dr. Barbara Hales 14:09  for the listeners that we have on the show. Could you give us two helpful tips that they could implement right away?    Ronnie Toronto 14:22  and one stop using certificated and just I and yes, explore co-work and second thing is that something that I’m doing, I’m asking this every AI that I’m using, I’m asking AI to ask me questions, because as much as AI is a wonderful tool, you need the magic of humanity, and if we don’t go into ask for ChatGPT or co-work or whatever you use to ask us. To ask us questions, we are going to start thinking. I think it’s very, it’s very important for us to continue thinking and not to give the AI to do the work for us and to do it together as a team.    Using AI Chatbots for Customer Support    Dr. Barbara Hales 15:16  Do you also show people how to use and create chatbots?    Ronnie Toronto 15:22  Yeah. yes, yes, I’m doing, I yeah, I help some businesses to do it as well, and I don’t have a website to do a chat, but it’s actually very helpful to some businesses to have, because it’s reduced the amount of time that you spend on answering the same repetitive questions that you have from clients, so you just upload all of your base knowledge to there, and they, I know how to answer the client for you, so yes,    How to Join the One Woman Show Community    Dr. Barbara Hales 15:58  How can people find you if they would like to join the one-woman show, and can anybody join?    Ronnie Toronto 16:12  Everyone can join. I know that I’m speaking only for women, but I think that men also, if they need help, I would be more happy to help them, and you can find me in LinkedIn as Ronnie Toronto. And also, if you have school or you want to sign up for school, you just search One Woman Show AI, and you can find me there. Yeah,    Expanding the Community Beyond Women    Dr. Barbara Hales 16:38  okay. Well, you’ll also be able to see that in the, in the show notes, but if a guy approached you, he said, “Well, I know that you have this thing going on for women, but I’d like to learn too. So, you would accept them into the pack.    Ronnie Toronto 16:55  Yes, I might even open a new pack, a new community for everyone.    Ronnie Toronto 17:00  Yeah, I would be happy to help everyone. Yeah,    Final Advice and Closing Remarks    Dr. Barbara Hales 17:04  okay. Great. Is there any last bit of advice that you would like to say that I didn’t ask, or did we go    Ronnie Toronto 17:15  on? I think no, I think I. I hope I have explained everything clearly. Yeah,    Dr. Barbara Hales 17:24  Well, you know, listeners, if there’s something that you’re unsure of, then we are giving you the way to reach Ronnie, and you could just ask her directly. So, thank you very much for being on the show today. This has been another episode of Marketing Tips for Doctors with your host, Dr. Barbara Hales. Till next time.    Ronnie Toronto 17:53  Thank you. The post Women, and the AI Revolution first appeared on The Medical Strategist.
