Send us a textThis week we caught up with Hylton Karon, President and CEO of iFabric, to discuss the company's recent strong results and continued outlook for double-digit top line growth.  Founded by Hylton in 1985, the Canadian textile company eschews fashion for performance.  iFabric today offers textile products and technologies that cover a wide range of consumer markets such as athleisure, lifestyle, swimwear, healthcare, hospitality and military applications.  Hylton also explains that while the company today is known as Intelligent Fabrics, it will soon be known as Intelligent Technologies as it begins to offer solutions for hard surfaces as well.

In this Omni Talk Retail Fast Five episode, sponsored by the A&M Consumer and Retail Group, Simbe, Mirakl, Ocampo Capital, Infios, and ClearDemand, Chris and Anne dive into Sam's Club's bold plan to open 15 clubs annually and remodel all 600 existing locations in the U.S. (0:02). Backed by strong performance and growing online sales, Sam's Club hopes to double its membership over the next 8–10 years, according to CEO Chris Nicholas (0:21). Chris lays out three reasons he's bullish: impressive comp sales growth (0:56), rising app adoption like Scan & Go (1:24), and soaring popularity among Gen Z and millennials (2:04). Anne agrees with the momentum but flags a continued awareness gap compared to Costco and emphasizes the importance of tapping Walmart Plus to attract new members (3:04). The episode wraps with a discussion of retail media advantages and the potential to unify Walmart and Sam's Club memberships under one banner (4:59).

Joe Heck, CEO of Zip, joins me on the Tearsheet Podcast to discuss the evolution of alternative payment solutions in the US. Zip is a leading Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) company. Joe shares lessons from his 20 years of experience in consumer lending and fintech payment solutions. Heck brings insights from his previous leadership roles at Happy Money and TrueStage. Heck's background plays a role in his approach to financial services. Growing up in Flint, Michigan, he understands the challenges of paycheck-to-paycheck living. “There's a consumer base largely ignored by traditional financial systems,” Heck explains. “FICO doesn't serve them well, but they have a great ability to pay.” Zip focuses on providing financial flexibility to these consumers. It offers structured repayment plans that don't push them into revolving debt. According to Heck, “We win when the consumer wins. If they can't pay us back, our model doesn't work either.” The Big Ideas BNPL's Growth Potential in the US – With only 2% of payments currently in BNPL, there is significant room for expansion compared to markets like Europe and Australia. Financial Inclusion for Underserved Consumers – Zip is focusing on consumers who don't fit traditional credit models but have strong repayment potential. “We provide access when and where they need it,” says Heck. Strategic Partnerships Drive Accessibility – Integrations with Stripe and retailers like GameStop are making BNPL more available to consumers. A More Transparent Alternative to Credit Cards – Unlike credit cards that encourage revolving debt, BNPL provides structured, predictable payments. “We're not built in a way that traps consumers in debt,” Heck emphasizes. The Role of Cash Flow Management in BNPL's Future – Zip is investing in tools that help consumers manage unpredictable income streams, ensuring more repayment flexibility.

Brian Tibbs is on a mission to serve people by leveraging his skills and experience in building significant wealth. He is eager to hear your story and walk alongside you in your wealth-building journey. From a young age, it was evident to both Brian and those around him that he was destined to be a businessman. By the age of 26, he had already begun investing in real estate, was an executive in his father's financial services company, and co-owned a small online retail business. However, Brian felt called to a different path. Over the next three years, he married Jill Bramhall, resigned from his father's company, sold his online business, liquidated 60% of his real estate portfolio, and moved—sight unseen—to Guatemala.For the next 16 years, Brian built a team that recruited and trained 380 leaders to plant 96 churches across 11 countries. Together, they raised over $20 million for their cause and constructed more than 150,000 square feet of churches and related facilities. Despite dedicating themselves to ministry, Brian and Jill earned very little money. When calculated against their total working hours, their earnings equated to just $9.20 per hour—less than the legal minimum wage in most states.Even with their limited income, they successfully built a multi-million dollar net worth. They no longer rely on jobs to pay their bills but instead have the financial freedom to choose work on their own terms. Their modest salary forced them to develop a wealth-building philosophy that didn't depend on a high income. It was through this financial constraint that the HACKER Method was discovered and implemented, enabling the Tibbs family to achieve financial independence by Brian's 44th birthday.Although Brian has stepped away from full-time missionary work, his passion for serving others remains strong. He launched The Unexpected Investor with the singular goal of helping people who feel financially constrained transform into wealthy, powerful, and generous investors using the HACKER Method.Chapters00:00 Introduction and Current Economic Perspectives04:46 Investment Strategies in Changing Markets08:39 Brian Tibbs' Journey and Experience12:18 Key Metrics in Short-Term Rentals16:04 Navigating Airbnb's Algorithm and Reviews19:40 Regulatory Landscape for Short-Term Rentals22:41 Navigating the Challenges of Short-Term Rentals25:08 The Value of Specialization in Real Estate26:44 The Growth Potential of Short-Term Rentals27:57 Exit Strategies in Short-Term Rental Investments29:00 The Hacker Method: Building Wealth31:50 Educational Resources for Short-Term Rental Investors34:26 Due Diligence in Passive Investing36:43 Supporting Emerging Entrepreneurs37:41 Investing in Others: A Personal Touch39:02 outro RANDY SMITHConnect with our host, Randy Smith, for more educational content or to discuss investment opportunities in the real estate syndication space at www.impactequity.net, https://www.linkedin.com/in/randallsmith or on Instagram at @randysmithinvestorKeywordseconomy, investing, short-term rentals, Airbnb, market trends, passive income, real estate, Brian Tibbs, The Hacker Method, community building

What is the significance of identifying synergies in Mergers & Acquisitions? In this episode, Jim is joined by Sharon McGuire for an insightful discussion on corporate acquisitions. Drawing from their combined experience, they explore how successful mergers require a strategic and structured approach, treating them as integral processes rather than isolated events. The conversation delves into the meticulous aspects of strategy development, target identification, and diligent execution needed to foster growth and yield substantial returns. Their discussion, enriched by McGuire's background in major industry mergers at a leading oil company, emphasizes how CEOs must proactively seek acquisition opportunities that align with corporate goals while avoiding hasty decisions that could jeopardize leadership and company future. Key Takeaways: →Acquisition is a strategic approach to augment growth rate and yield high returns. → CEOs need to have a clear vision and strategic direction for their acquisitions. → About 80% of acquisitions fail to deliver the intended results due to unrealistic financial projections. → Identifying synergies that justify the merger is crucial for long-term value creation. → Bidding strategy in mergers involves initially bidding high to clear the room and negotiating a lower price later.

"People always ask us this question, what can I learn from that country? People ask us about this from the report especially when we're talking to policymakers, or what should I learn from Malaysia? What should I learn? The thing to learn is  to not learn  to replicate exactly.  But the thing to learn is sort of what are the principles behind what works for them. What are your comparative advantages, Every country needs to be asking that for themselves. So for Vietnam, comparative advantages are things like  proximity to China, and an ability at a geopolitical level to navigate between the U.S. and China.  They do this pretty delicately, given their history with both countries. There's an acquiescence by the major powers also to not force Vietnam to take sides. And, you know, and so it's a delicate balancing game that ASEAN always plays ..." - Gullnaz Baig Fresh out of the studio, Gullnaz Baig, executive director from the Angsana Council, shares her perspectives on the "Southeast Asia Outlook 2024-2034: Navigating the High Winds" report by Angsana Council, DBS and Bain & Co.

The PACE Turf growth potential equation has one variable (the actual air temperature) and two constants. The constants are optimum air temperature and a term for variance that controls the shape of the curve as the actual temperature moves away from the optimum temperature. It's a little more complicated than that, because the constants change depending on whether you are making the calculation for cool-season grass, warm-season grass, and on whether you are using the Fahrenheit temperature scale or the Celsius temperature scale.The blog post discussed is https://www.asianturfgrass.com/post/calculating-gp/PACE Turf climate appraisal forms at: https://www.paceturf.org/journal/climateMore about GP and the variance term at https://www.asianturfgrass.com/post/what-is-variance-in-growth-potential-equation/Read more about all kinds of turfgrass topics at https://www.asianturfgrass.com/Get ATC newsletters at https://www.asianturfgrass.com/newsletter/Turfgrass information and decision-making tools at https://www.paceturf.org/PACE Turf YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/user/paceturfATC's YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/asianturfgrasscenter Subscribe to my new podcast, Turf Without Borders, at https://turfwb.asianturfgrass.com/subscribeRegister for the Canadian Golf Course Management Conference in Niagara Falls at https://ogsa.ca/golfsupers-2025thecanadian/Register for the BIGGA Continue to Learn programme in Harrogate: https://www.btme.org.uk/continue-to-learn.htmlRegister for my seminar at the GCSAA Conference and Show: https://gcsaaconference.com/education/session-detail?evt_id=737742c0-bb52-4192-ab34-f06c2413df04&ses_id=d85db2dc-ec5b-48c4-820f-57abce2a5193If you'd like to attend the 15th International Turfgrass Research Conference in Japan, here's a direct link to the conference website: https://itrc2025.turfsociety.com/

Market corruption is on the rise, and regulatory systems are struggling to keep up. Financial markets are becoming increasingly polarized, and the landscape is more complex than ever. Marc Cohodes, a seasoned investor and former hedge fund manager, shares his insights and firsthand experiences from a career that spans over four decades. Mark pulls back the curtain on the darker side of financial markets, exposing the fraud and corruption that have emerged alongside rapid technological advancements and an influx of capital. Together, we tackle the challenging role of social media in both exposing and perpetuating fraud, and the unique difficulties faced when the public turns against those who reveal high-profile fraud cases.The conversation doesn't stop at corruption; it extends to the striking transformation of the stock market in the post-COVID era. As speculative behaviors surge, fueled by influential figures and media outlets, the sustainability of such a market environment is under heavy scrutiny. We dive into the culture of quick riches, the volatility surrounding cryptocurrencies, and the dire need for stronger regulatory oversight, using the FTX scandal as a stark warning sign. Mark shares intriguing stories from his interactions with companies like NVIDIA, questioning the impact of the AI craze on valuations, and reflects on the societal and market polarization that challenges rational investment strategies.Finally, we turn our attention to the cannabis industry and its vast potential. Highlighting Glass House and its CEO, Kyle Kazan, we analyze the transformative possibilities within this rapidly evolving market. By comparing the current cannabis landscape to the post-prohibition alcohol industry, we anticipate the immense growth that could follow regulatory changes. Personal anecdotes about cannabis for pain management reinforce its benefits, advocating for decriminalization and a regulated, taxed industry that promises a bright future for companies like Glass House. Join us as we unravel the complex dynamics of financial markets and embrace the inevitability of change.The content in this program is for informational purposes only.
