PRESIDENT TRUMP returned home from his Middle East trip with commitments for $2.5 trillion in foreign investment. Are the Abraham Accords proof that Trump is the Antichrist? The peace treaty hinted at in the prophecy of Daniel 9:27, as interpreted by many prophecy teachers, is so vague it could mean almost anything. President Trump's meeting with Ahmed al-Sharaa, the nominal president of Syria, was the first time a US president has met with a Syrian leader in 25 years, another example of how Trump is rearranging the chessboard of the Middle East. However, the “strong covenant with many,” rather than a peace agreement, could be the kind of trade deal Trump is working on with the Gulf oil states (and China, for that matter). That said, the Antichrist will be adored by so many people around the world that he will ultimately be worshipped as a god. President Trump is too divisive a figure for that. We recognize that the president is far from perfect. But at least he's giving American Christians a window of opportunity to preach and practice our faith without interference, something we didn't have with Presidents Biden or Obama.

Send us a textWhat if everything you believe about digital marketing is leading your home service business down a dangerous path? In this eye-opening conversation with digital marketing veteran Jonathan Bannister, we uncover why the constant chase for Google rankings has created a generation of "digital junkies" in the home service industry.Bannister doesn't hold back as he reveals the uncomfortable truth: digital marketing has made business owners fat and lazy. After a decade helping HVAC, plumbing, and roofing companies navigate the digital landscape, he's witnessed firsthand how the addiction to leads has replaced fundamental business practices like excellent customer service and effective sales processes. His provocative new book title says it all: "F*** Digital Marketing: Why Building a Memorable Brand Matters More Than Rankings."The conversation takes a fascinating turn when Bannister predicts Google's search engine will be "extinct" within 3-5 years, replaced by AI platforms that will fragment the search landscape. This paradigm shift means businesses building their entire strategy on search visibility are constructing their foundation on borrowed space.Through compelling case studies and tactical advice, Bannister outlines a smarter approach to marketing: becoming omnipresent in your target market through a proper marketing funnel that educates at the top, builds trust in the middle, and only presents offers to already-engaged audiences. His neighborhood-specific strategy for a roofing contractor demonstrates how targeted messaging and multi-channel presence can transform results without relying on Google's unpredictable algorithms.Whether you're currently frustrated with your marketing results or simply want to future-proof your business against the coming AI revolution, this episode offers a roadmap to build what truly matters – a brand that lives in customers' minds regardless of algorithm changes or platform shifts. It's time to break free from digital heroin and rediscover what genuinely drives sustainable growth.http://Www.topservdigital.com Support the show https://www.audible.com/pd/9-Simple-Steps-to-Sell-More-ht-Audiobook/B0D4SJYD4Q?source_code=ASSORAP0511160006&share_location=library_overflowhttps://www.amazon.com/Simple-Steps-Sell-More-Stereotypes-ebook/dp/B0BRNSFYG6/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1OSB7HX6FQMHS&keywords=corey+berrier&qid=1674232549&sprefix=%2Caps%2C93&sr=8-1 https://www.linkedin.com/in/coreysalescoach/

In this episode of the HVAC School podcast, host Bryan discusses superheat with guest JD, who recently co-authored an article on the topic with Ty Branaman. The conversation explores the often misunderstood concept of superheat, its importance in HVAC diagnostics, and common misconceptions technicians have when measuring and interpreting it. Bryan begins by sharing how superheat was initially taught to technicians in the late 1990s and early 2000s, primarily as a method for charging fixed metering device systems. He explains how this limited view led to problems, as technicians would often add or remove refrigerant based solely on superheat readings without considering other system factors or giving the system time to stabilize. JD points out how the industry shifted when TXVs (Thermostatic Expansion Valves) became standard, with many technicians abandoning superheat measurements altogether in favor of subcooling measurements, missing crucial diagnostic information in the process. The discussion then evolves into a more sophisticated understanding of superheat as an indicator of evaporator coil "fullness." Bryan explains that lower superheat indicates a fuller evaporator coil, while higher superheat suggests a starved coil. They discuss the importance of measuring superheat in the correct location, noting that TXVs control superheat at the evaporator outlet, not at the condensing unit where technicians often measure. This misunderstanding leads to many incorrect diagnoses of "bad TXVs" when the real issues might be related to airflow, heat pickup in line sets, or other factors. Both experts emphasize the value of measuring superheat both inside at the evaporator outlet and outside at the condensing unit to get a complete picture of system operation. Key Topics Covered: Definition of superheat and its importance in HVAC diagnostics How superheat indicates evaporator coil "fullness" (flooded vs. starved conditions) The distinction between charging by superheat and using superheat as a diagnostic tool Common misconceptions about superheat measurement on TXV systems Why measuring superheat location matters (evaporator outlet vs. condensing unit) How to properly diagnose TXV issues using superheat measurements The relationship between airflow problems and superheat readings Normal superheat ranges for residential systems (7-14 degrees at evaporator outlet) How superheat affects both system capacity and compressor safety "Exercising" TXVs as a troubleshooting technique How line set conditions and installation factors can impact superheat readings System behavior during "hot pull down" conditions when starting with high indoor temperatures   JD and Ty's superheat tech tip and worksheet: https://hvacrschool.com/solving-superheat/  Have a question that you want us to answer on the podcast?

In this “NASM CPT Podcast,” host Rick Richey takes listeners behind the scenes of what it really takes to open a gym—no sugarcoating, just real numbers and honest advice. Building upon his recent conversation with fitness industry mogul Mark Mastrov, Rick brings his own hard-earned experience to the mic, offering practical insights for aspiring gym owners. Rick breaks down the nitty gritty: how much money you truly need (it's more than you think), the difference between capital and operational expenses, and the often-overlooked costs of things like HVAC units, rubber flooring, repairs, mirrors, lighting, laundry, and even towel logos. He stresses the importance of planning for both the build-out and the ongoing costs that keep your doors open, sharing stories from his own path to gym ownership—including why having six months of operating capital is non-negotiable. From negotiating leases and dealing with banks, to understanding freight costs for equipment and the reality of a slow start once you open, Rick's candid perspective prepares listeners for the rollercoaster of gym ownership. He explains why some might be better off starting with a franchise, and why the coolest part of owning a gym can sometimes be the hardest to maintain. If you're considering opening your own facility or just want a raw look at entrepreneurship in fitness, this episode is a must-listen. Rick doesn't aim to discourage—just to arm you with the truth, so you're ready to succeed.

Dandelion Energy is revolutionizing residential heating and cooling through geothermal technology, transforming what was once a luxury product into a mainstream, accessible solution for homeowners across America. In this episode of Category Visionaries, I spoke with Kathy Hannun, Founder and CTO of Dandelion Energy, who spun the company out of Google X after recognizing geothermal's potential to disrupt the traditional home heating and cooling market. With $175 million in funding, Dandelion has evolved from direct-to-consumer retrofits to focusing on partnerships with home builders, dramatically reducing installation costs while maximizing scalability. Topics Discussed: Dandelion's origin as a spinout from Google X's moonshot factory The transition from a direct-to-consumer retrofit model to partnering with homebuilders How geothermal technology works and why it provides superior heating and cooling Innovations that made geothermal systems accessible to average homeowners The challenges of managing supply-demand dynamics in a construction-based business Financing strategies that made zero-money-down installations possible The development of Dandelion's brand identity and naming process The impact of government incentives on adoption rates (up to $30,000 in some markets) Future vision to make geothermal a standard option considered by major homebuilders   GTM Lessons for B2B Founders: Pivot When Your Business Model Shows Structural Flaws: Kathy recognized fundamental challenges in their direct-to-consumer retrofit approach that threatened long-term viability. Rather than forcing a flawed model, they pivoted to a B2B strategy targeting homebuilders, which cut installation costs by more than 50% while enabling greater scalability. Kathy explained, "The business model we had in the past, it was flawed... I was pretty anxious about what the future looked like in that business model. Whereas in this home builder business, it just really addresses many of the weaknesses of our old business model." Borrow Go-To-Market Strategies from Adjacent Industries: Dandelion's initial success came from applying solar industry financing models to geothermal, making expensive systems affordable through zero-money-down financing. Kathy shared, "We really just stood on the shoulders of the solar industry... it allowed us to offer a zero money down product which was also half of our customers used." By adapting proven strategies from adjacent sectors, B2B founders can accelerate adoption of new technologies. Adapt Marketing Strategies to Current Realities: Kathy initially received advice from solar industry veterans suggesting community events and farmer's markets for customer acquisition. While applying this advice, she quickly discovered digital ads were far more cost-effective. As she noted, "In retrospect, I realized the solar industry kind of came of age before digital ads were such a big deal. And so all the advice I had gotten was a little bit out of date." B2B founders should consider the context and timing when applying historical industry advice. Address Technology Limitations That Constrain Market Size: When Dandelion discovered that standard water well drilling rigs were too large for many residential properties, they developed smaller specialized equipment that instantly doubled their addressable market. Kathy recalled, "For half the homeowners that said yes to us, yes, I want to buy geothermal from you, we had to say actually nevermind, because your house cannot accommodate a giant water well rig on the yard." Identifying and solving technical barriers that limit adoption can dramatically expand market reach. Leverage Mission-Driven Status for Marketing Advantages: Dandelion's environmental mission generated media coverage and public interest that traditional HVAC companies couldn't access. Kathy observed, "Starting a company that is mission driven like Dandelion has been a big advantage because we get a fair amount of press coverage and people are inherently somewhat interested in the thing that we're doing." B2B founders working on solutions with broader positive impacts should leverage this narrative advantage in their marketing strategy.   //   Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe.  www.GlobalTalent.co

I host an accountability & mastermind call every Monday for the SMART Cleaning Tribe. We are a family of cleaning service owners with teams (that used to be solo). I'm the architect of this group of amazing people, always looking for the 1% that desires to set monthly SMART goals and be held accountable to their achievement. Check out the episode "The Accountability Roadmap" to learn more about the 1% clubWe had an interesting discussion this past week on the topic of client scope creep. This is when your original housecleaning scope of work increases with the changing dynamics of the family or home. We went around the group sharing how we each deal with this. Toward the end of this discussion, one of our members hit a home run. Kate Sloan is the owner of Chicka Chicka Broom, which services Montgtomery, MN. She said. "I train my clients." Obviously, I could not let that slip through the cracks and asked her to explain. Kate contrasted the typical house cleaner to the perceived in-home experts such as electricians, plumbers, carpenters, and HVAC technicians. "Why are they viewed as experts and get expert-level prices and many devalue cleaners wanting to pay the minimum?"The answer is simple. Most clients are moms with cleaning experience. They can clean, therefore they don't see our craft as a specialty. Plumbers and electricians do work that the mom cannot do, therefore they are experts and can charge expert prices. One of the best ways to level-up as a cleaner to an expert or specialist is to acquire specialized knowledge. One example is taught in my "9 Mistakes in Disinfecting". If 90% of our clients are disinfecting incorrectly and we know how to do it right to protect their families, our value increases. This is the process to becoming the expert and separating from the typical cleaner.One further point on mastery comes from Malcolm Gladwell's "Outliers" book. He claims that it takes 10,000 hours to acquire expert status at any task. If you clean 40 hours per week, 50 weeks per year, you can achieve mastery in 5 years! Many of us have achieved this. Not many moms have, no matter how long they've been cleaning. What if they clean 2 hours per day and 6 days per week? It would take over 16 years to reach mastery. Some moms have achieved this and most have not.Make sure to study this episode as it holds a vital key in pricing to start earning you top income as a solo cleaner.

“What's Your Number?” Phound Offers a Lifeline for Skype Users Facing Shutdown, Technology Reseller News Podcast with Dave Erickson, Co-founder, Phound “Skype wasn't born at Microsoft. It was born with a vibe—and we've built Phound around that same spirit,” says Dave Erickson, Co-founder, Phound. As Microsoft sunsets Skype, longtime users are left with a difficult question: What now? In this special episode of Technology Reseller News, publisher Doug Green sits down with Dave Erickson, co-founder of Phound, to discuss how Phound is stepping up to fill the void left by the closure of the iconic communications platform. Phound Offers Lifeline for Skype Users as Microsoft Shuts Down Service Erickson argues that Phound doesn't just replace Skype—it upgrades it. Offering a familiar user experience built around phone numbers, affordable add-ons, and a frictionless onboarding process, Phound is positioning itself as the natural home for Skype's former user base. Unlike Teams, which targets enterprise workflows, Phound maintains the lightweight, accessible, and international-friendly features that made Skype a global success—complete with modern HD voice, full spam controls, verified caller identity, and porting options for legacy numbers. For just $5/month, users get a full suite of services: unlimited voice, SMS, online meetings for up to 1,000 participants, and the ability to restore or reclaim numbers that still matter—like that HVAC sticker with an outdated contact number. “People used Skype to talk to just a handful of trusted contacts,” Erickson reflects. “Phound respects that simplicity—but gives you more.” Phound's special migration page makes the transition seamless for former Skype users. Visit https://phound.app/ to get started. Listen to the full podcast now and explore what Phound has built: the next step in personal and small-business communications.

POPE LEO XIV, Cardinal Robert Prevost, was elected this week to succeed Pope Francis, becoming the first American pope in history. We discuss the possible reasons for Leo's choice of that papal name. Pope Leo XIII, who served 1878–1903, is remembered for emphasizing the veneration of Mary and her status as “Mediatrix” and “Co-Redemptrix.” (There is no blblical support for the role of Mary in our redemption.) Leo XIII was also known for championing the rights of workers to fair wages and safe working conditions during the Industrial Revolution. Leo I, also called Leo the Great, was pope between 440 and 461 AD. He's remembered for laying the theological foundation for the Council of Chalcedon, which defined the nature of Jesus as both human and divine in one person, but perhaps best known for meeting with Attila the Hun and talking the barbarian out of invading Italy.

I'm a strong believer that you should sell to B2B buyers the same way you sell to B2C prospects. If you don't believe this, you should listen to this conversation with B2C expert, Josh Koplin. He's here to share why B2B prospects want the same experience as B2C customers and how you can give it to them.Meet Josh KoplinAs Co-founder and CRO of EDEN, a home services SaaS startup, Joshua Koplin spearheads the company's mission to equip contractors with innovative technology, fostering business growth and exceptional customer experiences. His extensive experience in finance, innovation, and business development includes leading the IPO for Japan's largest renewable energy developer, RENOVA Inc., and previous roles in investment banking and M&A at J.P. Morgan.Adopting a B2C Experience into the B2B WorldThe B2B prospects in the fancy offices are also the same ones doing B2C buying. They see what it takes to make someone buy, and they want that same experience when a B2B seller is offering them a service or product.Josh shares how his company is modernizing the sales process to provide instant gratification. He studies what consumers want and applies that knowledge to the HVAC and home services space.Overcoming Pricing ChallengesIn the B2C world, the price of a product or service is right there in your face. However, it's often hidden in the B2B world. Josh shares that online pricing is often the first thing on a buyer's priority list, and they will have this in mind when searching for a product. Adopting upfront pricing allows a B2B consumer to feel more comfortable about their buying decision.He also explains why it's still essential for sellers to include the benefits of a product along with the pricing to provide a better experience for those in the B2B world.AI Search Changing Both WorldsIn the B2C and B2B worlds, AI has completely changed the way we look for information on Google. Before you can even scroll down, you see AI gathering the data you need.It makes old-school SEO methods obsolete, so how can you ensure your business still reaches the ranks?Josh shares that the best thing for B2B sellers to do is to put their "kitchen table conversations" online. This is where you act as the consultant and listen to your customers' pain points, needs, and wants. You provide everything they need to know to help them make informed decisions.Josh also goes into what zero-click searches are and how they are affecting the B2B world.“AI search and consumers are turning more towards the kitchen table conversations online. The more helpful you are, the greater the chance of conversation from consumers.” - Josh Koplin.

Bryan from HVAC School interviews JD Kelly, known as "student of HVAC" on Instagram, about Delta T measurements in HVAC systems. This episode dives into the fundamentals of Delta T, common misconceptions, and proper measurement techniques. JD explains that Delta T is simply a temperature difference between two points of the same medium, which is often misunderstood in the industry. Many technicians are taught to measure between return grills and supply registers, but this approach can lead to inaccurate readings due to external factors like duct leakage or heat gain from attics. The proper measurement should be taken directly at the equipment to evaluate how the evaporator coil is performing. Humidity plays a significant role in Delta T measurements, which JD discovered when researching the fundamentals. Bryan elaborates on this point, explaining that in high-humidity environments (like Florida), more energy goes toward removing moisture (latent heat) rather than cooling the air (sensible heat), resulting in lower Delta T readings. This is why a newly repaired unit in a humid house might initially show lower readings but improve as the home dries out. The discussion highlights why the common "20-degree Delta T" rule of thumb isn't universally applicable and requires context. Key Topics Covered: Definition of Delta T: Temperature difference between two points of the same medium Difference between Delta T and TD (temperature difference) Proper probe placement for accurate Delta T readings Impact of humidity on Delta T measurements How regional differences affect expected Delta T values Relationship between CFM (airflow) per ton and Delta T readings Common mistakes: Adjusting equipment based solely on Delta T readings Challenges of applying Delta T in heat pump heating mode How temperature dead spots can affect readings Why Delta T readings must be considered alongside other diagnostic tests The danger of making unnecessary adjustments to HVAC systems Why high Delta T isn't always good and low Delta T isn't always bad   JD's Delta T tech tip: https://hvacrschool.com/solving-delta-t/  Have a question that you want us to answer on the podcast?
